D. I. Fonvizin as the «Russian Boileau»: Towards the Origin of the Titulatory Formula in N. I. Novikov’s Satirical Journals

The present article deals with the question of attributing Nicolas Boileau’s Russian translations originally published by Nikolay Novikov in the magazine "Zhivopisets" (1772). Given the fact that Fonvizin was frequently called the «Russian Boileau» by his contemporaries, as well as taking into consideration the textual parallels between the anonymous Russian translation of "Sur l’Homme and An Epistle to My Servants" (1769) by Fonvizin, it seems possible to conclude that Fonvizin might be the translator of the French satire into Russian.
