Полный текст травелога до настоящего времени не переведен на русский язык и впервые вводится в научный оборот. Его автор стал одним из первых английских путешественников, открывших для англоговорящей общественности экзотический край и его жителей, чьи яркие образы до сих пор в ходу в англоязычном секторе Кавказоведения. Статья подчеркивает ориенталистский характер описаний народов Кавказа: казаков, калмыков, кабардинцев, чеченцев и осетин, с которыми автор путевых заметок имел контакты, но передавал в основном набор устоявшихся европоцентристских стереотипов, наполняя их яркими региональными деталями. Травелог также показывает характер отношений путешественника с представителями имперской администрации региона, содержит зарисовки повседневной жизни населенных пунктов и жителей приграничья. В завершении статья содержит вывод о «дуалистическом» видении путешественником Кавказа, в описаниях которого восхищение природой и горами причудливо смешивалось со страхом попасть в плен к жителям предгорий.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The paper focuses on the analysis of the travel notes by the famous British artist and traveller Robert Ker Porter, who visited the North Caucasus on the trip to the Middle East in 1817-1820. The travelogue full text has not been translated into Russian yet and is being introduced to Russian scientific public for the first time. Its author became one of the first English travellers who discovered the exotic land and its inhabitants in the English-speaking public, whose vivid images are still in use in the English-speaking sector of Caucasian studies. The article points out the Orientalist nature of the Caucasus people's descriptions: the Cossacks, Kalmyks, Kabardians, Chechens and Ossetians, with whom the author of the travel notes had contacted, but mainly conveyed a set of well-established Eurocentric stereotypes, filling them with vivid regional details. The travelogue also reflects the nature of the traveller’s relations with the Imperial authorities in the region, contains sketches of the daily life of the settlements and frontier dwellers. The author concludes the “dualistic” vision of the Caucasus by the traveller: the admiration for nature and mountains fancifully mixed with the fear of being captured by the inhabitants of the foothills.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>путешествия</kwd><kwd>травелоги</kwd><kwd>Российский Кавказ</kwd><kwd>Ориентализм</kwd><kwd>Роберт Кер Портер</kwd><kwd>военная ад-министрация</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>travellers</kwd><kwd>travelogues</kwd><kwd>Russian Caucasus</kwd><kwd>Orientalism</kwd><kwd>Robert Ker Porter</kwd><kwd>military authorities</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Johnson 1818 – Johnson J.
