As de Wit and Merkx [2012: 43] (see also [de Wit 2002: 3–18]) re- mark though, references to the global nature of universities ignore the fact that universities mostly originated in the 18th and 19th century and had a clearly national orientation. Neave [1997] and Scott [1998] also refer to the myth of the international university. The international orientation of universities has changed dramat- ically over the centuries and takes substantially different and more complex forms and approaches today. What now

  • On Russian Music Might Win It
    37509_u01.qxd 5/19/08 4:04 PM Page 27 1 Some Thoughts on the History and Historiography of Russian Music A preliminary version of this chapter was read as a paper in a symposium or- ganized by Malcolm H. Brown on “Fifty Years of American Research in Slavic Music,” given at the fiftieth national meeting of the American Musicological Society, on 27 October 1984. The other participants in the symposium and their topics were Barbara Krader (Slavic Ethnic Musics), Milos Velimirovic (Slavic Church Music), Malcolm H. Brown (Russian Music—What Has Been Done), Laurel Fay (The Special Case of Soviet Music—Problems of Method- ology), and Michael Beckerman (Czech Music Research). Margarita Mazo served as respondent. My assigned topic for this symposium was “What Is to Be Done,” but being no Chernïshevsky, still less a Lenin, I took it on with reluctance. I know only too well the fate of research prospectuses. All the ones I’ve seen, whatever the field, have within only a few years taken on an aspect that can be most charitably described as quaint, and the ones that have attempted to dictate or legislate the activity of future generations of scholars cannot be so charitably described. It is not as though we were trying to find a long- sought medical cure or a solution to the arms race. We are not crusaders, nor have we an overriding common goal that demands the subordina- tion of our individual predilections to a team effort. We are simply curious to know and understand the music that interests us as well as we possibly can, and eager to stimulate the same interest in others.

  • Birthright Democracy: Nationhood and Constitutional Self-Government in History
    BIRTHRIGHT DEMOCRACY: NATIONHOOD AND CONSTITUTIONAL SELF-GOVERNMENT IN HISTORY By Ethan Alexander-Davey A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Political Science) at the UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN-MADISON 2013 Date of final oral examination: 8/16/13 The dissertation is approved by the following members of the Final Oral Committee: Richard Avramenko, Political Science Daniel Kapust, Political Science James Klausen, Political Science Howard Schweber, Political Science Johann Sommerville, History i Abstract How did constitutionally limited government and democracy emerge in the West? Many scholars from many different perspectives have attempted to answer this question. I identify the emergence of these forms of self-government with early modern nationalism. Broadly speaking, nationalism of the right sort provides indispensable resources both for united popular resistance against autocratic rule, and for the formation and legitimation of national systems self- governance. Resistance and self-government both require a national consciousness that includes a myth of national origin, a national language, a common faith, and, crucially, native traditions of self-government, and stories of heroic ancestors who successfully defended those traditions against usurpers and tyrants. It is through national consciousness that abstract theories of resistance and self-government become concrete and tenable. It is though national fellowship that the idea of a political nation, possessing the right to make rulers accountable to its will, comes into existence and is sustained over time. My arguments basically fall under two headings, historical and theoretical. By an examination of the nationalist political thought of early modern European countries, I intend to establish important historical connections between the rise of nationalism and the emergence of self-government.

  • 2. Svetoslav Manoulov. Joseph De Mestre
    ALMANACH VIA EVRASIA, 2013, 2 Svetoslav Manoilov, Dr. (Russian History) Eurasia center VIA EVRASIA JOSEPH DE MESTRE AND THE ORIGINS OF THE RUSSIAN CONSERVATISM One of the most important preconditions for the spread of the European conservatism in Russia was the residence of some members of this political party in the empire. Russia was one of the favourite places for settlement of French immigrants as they join its military and civil service. One of the main representatives of European conservatism living in Russia since the beginning of the XIX century was Joseph de Maistre. This study examines the stay of Joseph de Maistre in the Eastern empire, his impact on the Russian society, and particularly, his influence in the foundation of the Russian conservative ideology. His impact on the conservative ideology in Europe is so significant that even nowadays his personality and political philosophy arise interest among scholars. However, there are controversial opinions in historiography. R. Triomphe1 defines him as "an ideologue of absolute power and mystical materialism". I. Berlin2 as “cruel prophet of our time and precursor of fascism”, J.-L. Darcell3 as “cosmopolitan searching for unity”. F. Verimiale4 studies the years in exile of Joseph de Maistre, J. Murray5 - his political philosophy. Another interesting research is that of C. Armenteros, 1 Triomphe, R. Joseph de Maistre.

    1. The rise of an unstable century At the dawn of the twentieth century, the European powers confronted two major geopolitical weaknesses. The first one related to the future of the Tsarist Empire, the second to the escalating fragmentation of the so-called “sick man of Europe”, that is, the Ottoman Empire and, broadly speaking, the Balkan Peninsula. In reality, since 1809, the European powers were concerned about a potential “booming revolution” in the Tsarist Empire.1 The debates were vivid among intellectuals and in political circles, but they reached their peak when the 1905 revolution threatened, for a while, the implosion of Russia and the stability of Europe. Until that moment, reactionary circles feared that any reform – including those introduced during the Enlightenment, those dealing with the educa- tional reform, and those related to the foundation of the Academy – would encourage the lower popular strata and potentially most of the peasants to a rebellion. Joseph de Maistre and the Marquis de Coustine, for example, as well as the Slavophiles in Russia belonged to this mainstream. Others, by contrast, believed that the autocratic regime, particularly promoted by Nicholas I, was so refractory to any reform that the only way to achieve change was by revolution. From Narodniks to Anarchists and Marxists, several schools of thought, both in Russia and in Western Europe, nur- tured that belief. To a large extent, these opinions were mainly connected to the unbalanced social relations in the Tsarist Empire, that is, the polari- zation between landowners and peasantry, as well as the industrial – and the broader economic – backwardness of the country.

  • The Cossack Myth: History and Nationhood in the Age of Empires
    THE COSSACK MYTH In the years following the Napoleonic Wars, a mysterious manuscript began to circulate among the dissatisfied noble elite of the Russian Empire. Entitled The History of the Rus′, it became one of the most influential historical texts of the modern era. Attributed to an eighteenth-century Orthodox archbishop, it described the heroic struggles of the Ukrainian Cossacks. Alexander Pushkin read the book as a manifestation of Russian national spirit, but Taras Shevchenko interpreted it as a quest for Ukrainian national liberation, and it would inspire thousands of Ukrainians to fight for the freedom of their homeland. Serhii Plokhy tells the fascinating story of the text’s discovery and dissemination, unravelling the mystery of its authorship and tracing its subsequent impact on Russian and Ukrainian historical and literary imagination. In so doing, he brilliantly illuminates the relationship between history, myth, empire, and nationhood, from Napoleonic times to the fall of the Soviet Union. serhii plokhy is the Mykhailo Hrushevsky Professor of Ukrainian History at Harvard University. His previous publications include Ukraine and Russia: Representations of the Past (2008)andThe Origins of the Slavic Nations: Premodern Identities in Russia, Ukraine and Belarus (2006).

    German Romantic Nationalism and Indian Cultural Tradition A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History By Alexei Vladimirovich Pimenov, M.A. Washington, DC November 18, 2015 Copyright 2015 by Alexei Vladimirovich Pimenov All Rights Reserved ii Alexei Vladimirovich Pimenov, M.A. Thesis Advisor: Catherine Evtuhov, Ph.D. Abstract This Dissertation examines the German Romantic fascination with India, the country thought by many German Romantics to be the original home of the Urvolk, considered by these thinkers to be the direct ancestors of the German people themselves. In analyzing this German Romantic self-representation through India within the context of the Romantic critique of European modernity, the Dissertation considers this phenomenon as a case of the Romantic re-integration project. The Dissertation juxtaposes four figures – Friedrich Schlegel, Otmar Frank, Joseph Goerres, and Arthur Schopenhauer – who are particularly representative of those German Romantic thinkers who were influenced by Indian culture and who applied the Indian models to their interpretations of world history. These interpretations were rooted in the models developed by the missionaries and the Enlightenment thinkers who looked for the original monotheism outside the biblical tradition. The Romantics, however, highlighted not only the religious but also the national dimension of the connection between the original home of the Urvolk and its descendants in the modern German-speaking realm. In tracing the Urvolk ’s migration from India to the West, Friedrich Schlegel used as his explanatory model the Brahmanic narrative of the degenerated warriors becoming barbarians due to their failure to observe the dharma.

  • Georges Frédéric Parrot
    ActaRaul VeedeBaltica Historiae et Philosophiae Scientiarum Vol. 7, No. 3 (Autumn 2019) DOI : 10.11590/abhps.2019.3.10 BOOK REVIEW Tohvri, Epi. Georges Frédéric Parrot: Tartu Keiserliku Ülikooli esimene rektor [Georges Frédéric Parrot: the First Rector of the Imperial University of Tartu], Tartu: Tartu Ülikooli Kirjastus, 2019, ISBN 9789949031436, 1072pp. Epi Tohvri’s monograph on Georges Frédéric Parrot, the first rector of the University of Tartu, fills a veritable void in the academic literature. Most likely, though, its international impact will have to wait until there will be a translation into some other, more popular language than Estonian. To a large extent, Parrot’s scant academic coverage is, paradoxically, due to his influence. That French-born, German- made, Russian-flourished scientist and educator is still mostly known as the rector who re-established the Livonian university after a century-long hiatus, while his influence in the educational policies of Tsarist Russia has remained a once well-known secret. The attempts to summarize Parrot’s close relationships to two rulers of the Russian Empire, Alexander I and Nicholas I, were largely silenced by their political sensitivity up to World War I, after which the currents of scholarship shifted elsewhere, documents were scattered, and Russian imperial archives still did not become exactly easily accessible for a long time. That is why it has only become possible nowadays to gather all the data from the collections in Russia, Estonia, Latvia, and France, as Epi Tohvri has done through her meticulous work. Indeed, the sheer amount of effort made here is staggering, as a monograph of a thousand pages should not be taken, written, or dropped lightly.
