Admonishment as a Substitute for Torture-Based Interrogation in Late Eighteenth-Century Judicial Practice
The practice of admonishing suspects was a significant innovation in the judicial system of Catherine the Great’s reign, yet it has remained largely overlooked by legal historians. This article is the first in historiography to examine the practice of admonishing suspects; to this end, it draws on court records from the voivode’s chancery and the magistrate’s court of Gorokhovets (Central Russia) for the 1760s and 1770s. These materials demonstra…
Town Governors of the Beginning of the Catherine Era
The focus of this study is on the social stratum of the town governors (gorodovye voivody), who were the lowest link in the vertical of administrative and territorial administration of Russia in the period 1728—1775. Little is known in the literature about the activities of these administrators, and their bribery is mostly unsubstantiated. Governor of the town Gorokhovets collegiate assessor S. I. Lebedev held this position for an exceptionally l…
Public Places in the 18th-Century Russian City
This article, devoted to the behaviour and communication of people in public places of the 18th-century Russian city (markets, taverns, baths, inns, etc.), focuses on the behaviour of people in churches. They hosted events of local importance (weddings, baptisms, funerals, etc.) as well as communication between the authorities and their subjects (swearing oaths, reading decrees, etc.). The ecclesiastical space is presented as a place of social an…
Theft in the Russian Province of the 18th Century
The article discusses the purposes of theft, objects of theft (horses, money, foodstuff, commodity) and the realization of stolen goods in the context of the everyday life of the Russian province of the 18th century. Theft could be carried out by professional criminals, but much more often, however, acts of theft were accidental and unplanned. In the province, it was especially difficult to sell stolen goods or to spend money, as the news of the …
Forum 62
Studies of more-than-human sociality in general, and multispecies ethnography in particular, are becoming an increasingly popular trend in global (social, human, and transdisciplinary) scholarship. In the current forum, researchers from various disciplines discuss the advantages, limitations, and challenges of this trend. They also share their thoughts on why multispecies research has (or has not) an appeal in Russian academia and what the future…
“You Are Welcome, the Boy, to Discover the Wisdom” (Two Early Manuscripts With Jan Amos Komenskii’ Orbis Pictus Russian Translation)
The article focusses on the two little-known manuscripts stored in the Library of the Academy of Sciences in St. Petersburg. Both manuscripts contain full text of the Orbis Pictus by Jan Comenius in Russian language, some additional texts and many inscriptions in Latin and German. It seems to be the earliest Russian translation of OP in two variants. The author gives preliminary paleographic and textological analysis of these manuscripts and she …
“The Visible World”
The article focusses on the manuscript stored in Leiden as a witness of Russian-German linguistic, cultural, and pedagogical transfer. The manuscript consists of three parts and contains a "linguistic" introduction, the full text of the Orbis Pictus by Jan Comenius in two languages, and a German-Russian dictionary. The authors systematized the results of previous studies of the manuscript by foreign Slavists, put forward and substantiated their o…
Contemporary Russian Historiography on the Pre-Petrine Era
This review focuses on the most remarkable works in contemporary Russian historiography from recent decades on the pre-Petrine seventeenth century. Consciously ignoring the literature dedicated to diplomacy and war because of the sheer size of the available material, the author isolates questions connected with the socio-political and cultural development of the Muscovite state and society. In particular, she examines works looking at the intensi…
Историки XIX века о Боярской Думе и боярстве в Московском государстве
The themes explored by current-day historians have, as a rule, deep roots in the historiography, and these themes continue to be influenced by these older historiographical traditions. This article explores the often contradictory assessments by historians of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries of the principal state institution of Muscovy in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries: the Boyar Duma. The study of the Duma gave rise to numerous …
Deception and “the Genuine Truth” in Court Litigations (on the Materials of Interrogations in Russian Provincial Courts in the First Half of the 18th Century)
Rodstvennye Sviazi V Vysshikh Krugakh Znati Xvii Stoletiia I Zemlevladenie
L’historiographie existante ne permet pas de connaître les raisons qui guidaient le choix des partenaires de mariage dans les « clans » de bojare. En assumant l’usage de la notion anachronique du « clan », l’auteur ne l’interprète pas comme un synonyme de lignage ou de famille, mais lui confère le sens d’alliance entre plusieurs familles, alliance fondée sur les liens du mariage et le partage de la propriété foncière. L’auteur se base sur l’histo…
Formation of the 17th Century Intellectual Elite and the Works of Prokhor Kolomniatin
This paper is devoted to the phenomenon of the intellectual elite emerging in Russian literature in the 17th century. The image of Prokhor Kolomnyatin, a charismatic figure of the time in question, a man of literature and enlightenment, enables the author to see how this class took shape in Russian society. With reference to little-known manuscripts belonging to the literary legacy of the poet, the article demonstrates Prokhor’s understanding of …
