Among them, Catherine the Great stands as the most prominent and transformative empress, her reign emblematic of female authority in a patriarchal empire. Taking power in 1762 after a coup that deposed her husband, Peter III, Catherine ruled with intelligence, ambition, and strategic brilliance. Her ability to navigate court politics and maintain control over a vast empire challenged contemporary notions of female leadership. Under her reign, Russia expanded its borders, modernized its administration, and became a formidable power in European affairs.</p><p>Catherines reign was not just about empire-building; she sought to project herself as an enlightened ruler, embracing ideas of reason, progress, and reform. Her correspondence with prominent Enlightenment thinkers such as Voltaire and Diderot revealed her aspirations to bring rational governance to Russia, even as she maintained autocratic control. Through legal reforms, educational initiatives, and patronage of the arts, Catherine attempted to balance her image as both sovereign and reformer. Yet, her progressive faade often masked the harsh realities of peasant life and serfdom, which remained entrenched and expanded during her rule. The contradiction between her enlightened rhetoric and the deepening of social hierarchies has become a defining tension in her legacy.</p>...7157160Women of the Russian Empire6161https://www.gandhi.com.mx/women-of-the-russian-empire-9798318202193/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/7159587/image.jpg?v=638836996880100000InStockMXN99999DIAudiolibro20259798318202193_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9798318202193_<p>This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.</p><p>The women who ascended to the Russian imperial throne were more than just symbolic figures draped in royal finerythey were powerful actors in shaping the nations destiny.
