Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Tsars Gratitude Grand Dukes, for great things were expected of the troops this day; and there was much light-hearted conversation and laughter, in which the Princes Alexander and Constantine took their full share. Suddenly something happened, however, c which, though viewed at first rather as an entertaining episode than otherwise, soon took a more serious aspect. As the glittering company passed a troop of the Gardes d Cheval, the horse of one of the troopers took fright and bolted, startled by the sudden greeting of the soldiers to their imperial visitors; and instantly the horse of the Grand Duke Alex ander started in pursuit. Constantine, his brother, roared with laughter, and offered to back the prince for a hundred roubles; but the trooper's charger was a splendid animal, as most of the horses of that fine regiment are, and was not to be so easily overtaken. On and on went the pair, to the delight of the entire army - a glorious race and it was not until the animals were seen to be heading straight for the English lines that any one began to look grave.

Download or read book The Tsar's Armenians written by Onur Önol and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-05-30 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1903 Tsar Nicholas II issued a decree allowing the confiscation of Armenian Church property, marking the low point in relations between imperial Russia and its Armenian subjects. Yet just over a decade later, Russian Armenians were fully supportive of the Russian war effort. Drawing on previously untouched archival material and a range of secondary sources published in English, French, Russian and Turkish, this is the first English-language study of this drastic change in relations in the Caucasus. Onur Onol explains how and why the shift took place by looking in detail at the imperial Russian authorities and their relationship with the three pillars of the Russian Armenian community: the Armenian Church, the Armenian bourgeoisie and the Armenian Revolutionary Federation (Dashnaktsutiun). Onol places the evolution within a context of wider political questions, such as the Russian revolutionary movement, Russia's nationalities question, Tsarist fears of pan-Islamism, the path to World War I and the influence of key characters in Russian policy making, from Pyotr Stolypin to Illarion Vorontsov-Dashkov.This book fills a conspicuous void in the extant historiography, and will be of interest to scholars working on Russian, Armenian and Ottoman history.

Download or read book The Tsars and the Jews written by Heinz-Dietrich Löwe and published by Routledge. This book was released on 1993 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the striking results of this new research is how closely reaction and reform were connected. This ambiguity was already inherent in the Polish attempt at reform during the second half of the eighteenth century, and it never entirely disappeared during the times of dark reaction under Alexander II. Therefore, when the Russian government initiated a programme of modernization at the end of the nineteenth century, anti-Jewish stereotypes quickly hardened into anti-Semitism. In the conflict that ensued between reform-minded and reactionary forces, this anti-Semitism became an ideological weapon in which the Jews appeared as the embodiment of change, modernization and uprooted life. Lowe has taken the opportunity of the English translation to incorporate the results of his most recent research, extending the coverage of the book from the earlier version's beginning in 1890 backwards into the eighteenth century to give the whole background to Tsarist Jewish policy and Russian anti-Semitism.
