The work «Semiramis» was regarded by the Slavophile A.S. Homyakov as a study of global history from the anti-Eurocentrist position. Homyakov divides the entire humanity into two «races», which are the agents of spiritual principles acting through them: Iranian (Aryan) and Cushitic, which embody spiritual freedom and material necessity respectively. The principles of Iranism and Cushism introduced by Homyakov serve as an axis for the global history, that enables us to shed light upon the local cultures within the global context.
