The Illustrated Ivan: Ivan IV in the Illustrated Chronicle Compilation
The surviving segments of the incomplete Illustrated Chronicle Compilation ( LLS ),1 in both text and miniatures, present a consistently positive image of Ivan IV as pious, just and competent, although the portrayal of individual events could vary. Nevertheless they also sometimes portray him as not in control of his elite, his subjects or events. If Ivan had to restore order by punishing those who had acted unjustly without his permission, then …
The Power and the Glory – and the Money
These two anthologies continue Charles Halperin’s exploration of the reign of Ivan the Terrible. The first presents nineteen essays, each focused on a question that Halperin believes needs further investigation, ranging from family relationships to state policy to cultural achievements. He discusses sources and interpretations, then suggests additional avenues for further research. The second volume analyzes Ivan’s place in Russian historical mem…
S” is for “Seriously?” The Staritskii Plots as “Disorienting Defense”
The role of the succession question in court politics during the reign of Ivan iv has been a recurrent theme in Muscovite historiography, with particular focus on the “dynastic crisis” of 1553 as the first in a series of plots by Ivan’s cousin Vladimir Staritskii to gain the throne. But the true instigator, according to our sole source (interpolations in the Tsarstvennaia kniga segment of the Illuminated Chronicle), was Vladimir’s mother Evfrosin…
Networking in Muscovy: Archbishop Afanasii of Kholmogory and his Capital Connections
Afanasii, the Siberian monk who became the first archbishop of Kholmogory and Vaga, displayed remarkable skill in developing and maintaining a network of contacts in Moscow, building upon the traditional practice of distribution of podnosy by church hierarchs. The Arkhangel’sk market gave him access to a wide variety of luxury goods which he brought to the capital as gifts not only for those at the top of the religious and secular hierarchy but f…
“Mistakes were made”: Text and image in the Litsevoi Letopisnyi Svod account of the Staritskii rebellion
L’un des épisodes noirs de la minorité d’Ivan le Terrible est la révolte avortée de son oncle, Andrej de Starica, au printemps de 1537, qui se termine par l’arrestation du prince et sa mort en prison, au mois de décembre. La Chronique enluminée (LLS, Livre impérial) reprend à ce propos le récit de la Chronique de la Résurrection qui n’accable pas Andrej, mais attribue la révolte à l’action de conseillers malintentionnés, agissant aussi bien à la …
Ivan IV’s Reconciliation with the “Devil in a Skirt”
A re-examination of Ivan IV’s donations to support his aunt Evfrosin’ia Staritskaia’s household ( obikhod ) and convent after he forced her to take religious vows in 1563 sheds new light on both the Russian elite diet and commemoration practices in the second half of the 16 th century
The Paradoxes of Kozheozero
The Kozheozero Monastery of the Epiphany was founded by the monk Nifont in the mid-16 th century. Located in the impenetrable swamps west of the Onega River, it was one of the most remote religious houses in the Russian North and should have remained small in size and insignificant in cultural history. Yet it came to exemplify the complex and seemingly contradictory character of Muscovite religious life in the 17 th century, when it attracted abo…

The Petition (čelobitnaja) as an Old Russian Literary Genre
The Old Russian words biti celom 'to knock (or beat) with the forehead' may strike modern readers as a curious way to say petition. But when we read the accounts of foreigners who visited Moscow in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, we learn that was the style in which a Russian ruler expected his subjects to greet him: whether their purpose was to make a request of him or simply to acknowledge his presence, subjects were to knock their for…
The Duty to Denounce in Muscovite Russia
Sometime between 1533 and 1536, a certain Ivan laganov, writing from prison, addressed a petition to the child ruler Ivan IV in which he suggested that his release would be in the interests of state security. laganov apparently had enjoyed a successful career as a political informer under Ivan's father, and after the death of Vasilii III had continued to serve his new sovereign in the same manner. On his last mission, he explained, he had reporte…

Old Muscovite Amnesties: Theory and Practice
The modern Russian term for amnesty is amnistiia. Like its English counterpart, it comes from a Greek word meaning "oblivion": a sovereign who grants an amnesty officially "forgets" certain crimes or political offenses committed by his subjects.1 The word amnistiia does not appear in Russian documents of the pre-Petrine era, and some purists even claim that the Muscovites knew no concept of amnesty.2 Yet most of the practices we shall be discussi…
