Abstract
The article is aimed at identifying the character of the author’s imagological position in “The most solemne, and magnificent coronation of Pheodor Ivanowich, Emperour of Russia” by J. Horsey. Special attention is given to the author’s self-representation and analysis of the details concerning the English audience acquaintance with Russia. Besides, the intentions which inspired Horsey to write his memoir are considered in comparison with the conventions of travel literature of the time. It is claimed that Horcey’s imagological position encompassing three identities (a traveler, a mer- chant-diplomat and a man-of-letters) influences the thematic scope and range of problems, as well as ideological focus and genre nature of the work. Being an important element of imagopoetics, it serves a powerful tool of constructing imago of Russia and the Russians in the collective memory of the Elizabethans.
