Abstract
The Anglo-American historiography of the reign of Peter I in the modern period is investigated. The assessments of British and American historians of Peter’s domestic and foreign policy, the results of his transformations, and the role of the emperor in Russian history are given. The majority of the largest studies on the history of Russia in the reign of Peter I, published from 1990 to the present, are considered. The analysis of the main provisions and theses of these works allowed us to identify the characteristic features of the consideration of the image of Peter the Great in modern Anglo-American historiography, the most popular topics that attract the attention of historians, as well as their assessment of the reign of the Russian emperor. The conclusion is made about the presence of anti-Russian political discourse in most studies of the present period of historiography.
