  • Proposal from Robert Bolts to Catherine II, Empress of Russia, for an Expedition to the Northwest Coast of America
    Proposal from Robert Bolts to Catherine II, Empress of Russia, for an Expedition to the Northwest Coast of America To Her Imperial Majesty, Empress of All the Russias Madam, The Undersigned, currently Lieutenant Colonel in the Armies of His Majesty the Emperor, encouraged by the great wisdom which Your Majesty has always employed to increase the glory of your Monarchy as much as this glory can accord with the true happiness of your subjects, takes the respectful liberty of offering at your feet a Plan directly aimed at these sublime ends, through the following means: 1. By adding to your Empire a most extensive part of the northwest coast of North America not yet claimed or occupied by Europeans. 2. By opening an immense channel of commerce most advantageous to your subjects, to be carried out between the peninsula of Kamchatka and Japan, China, India, eastern Africa, America and all the islands lying between these vast continents. The magnanimity with which Your Majesty enraptures all the civilized nations of the terrestrial Globe prevents me from asserting the merit of this Plan in terms of the modest means required for its execution. I beg only that Your Majesty deign to weigh the consequences in your enlightened and far- seeing judgment; and give me the grace of conveying to me your Imperial determination in sufficient time that I shall not suffer the loss of the next sailing season should your Majesty not find it agreeable to approve my Plan. I have the honour to make my homage at your feet, and to be with the utmost reverence for your Majesty, Madam, your most humble and obedient servant, William Bolts at Vienna November 27, 1782 Proposals humbly submitted to the consideration of Her Imperial Majesty, Empress of All the Russias on an Expedition to the northwest coast of North America by way of Cape Horn.

Dissertation Advisors: James Hankins, Tamar Herzog Stuart Michael McManus The Global Lettered City: Humanism and Empire in Colonial Latin America and the Early Modern World Abstract Historians have long recognized the symbiotic relationship between learned culture, urban life and Iberian expansion in the creation of “Latin” America out of the ruins of pre-Columbian polities, a process described most famously by Ángel Rama in his account of the “lettered city” (ciudad letrada). This dissertation argues that this was part of a larger global process in Latin America, Iberian Asia, Spanish North Africa, British North America and Europe.

And this makes it of the first importance that the facts from which that usage and practice are to be deduced should be correctly appre- ciated, and in particular that the great treaties which have regulated the status and territorial rights of nations should be studied from the point of view of history and international law. It is the object of this book to present materials for that study in an accessible form. The scope of the book is limited, and wisely limited, to treaties between the nations of Europe, and to treaties between those nations from 1815 onwards. To include all treaties affecting all nations would require volumes nor is it for the many ; necessary, purpose of obtaining a sufficient insight into the history and usage of European States on such matters as those to which these treaties relate, to go further back than the settlement which resulted from the Napoleonic wars.

  • The Shadow of the Past: the Influence of Reputation on Alliance Choices
    THE SHADOW OF THE PAST: THE INFLUENCE OF REPUTATION ON ALLIANCE CHOICES DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Gregory D. Miller, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2004 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Randall L. Schweller, Advisor Professor John F. Guilmartin Professor John E. Mueller Advisor Graduate Program in Political Science Professor Alexander S. Thompson ABSTRACT Although alliances are the most studied phenomena in international relations, there are a number of unanswered questions. Numerous theories explain why alliances form and end, but we do not know how states choose their partners, or why they end when they do. In addition, despite the voluminous literature on alliances, almost no work explains the variation between alliance institutions. I suggest that a better understanding of reputation may help fill these gaps. If reputation matters, then we should see unreliable states (states that fail to honor their alliance commitments) being treated differently than reliable states (states that honor their commitments). Drawing from existing work in political science, as well as from anthropology, business, and game theory, I argue that reputation can affect a state’s alliance autonomy. States that are perceived to be unreliable should have greater difficulty attracting new partners and preserving existing alliances than states with a reputation for being reliable. Furthermore, a state’s reputation may explain some of the variation between alliances, such as the up- front costs incurred by the signatories, the explicitness of the language, and the level of military integration.

  • Sieur De Gages Is Now the Man Who Begins the Dance by Leading
    FROM MANN 23 SEPTEMBER 1742 NS 55 sieur de Gages is now the man who begins the dance by leading again up to the Panaro, but I believe he will observe the rules of country dances, and return to the place from whence he came. The first column arrived some days ago3 at Fano. Their design was to march all together to Bologna, where preparations were making, for the third of next month, but as Monsieur de Traun has desired preparations at the same place for his troops and those of the King of Sardinia, amount­ ing to near 20,000 men, it is probable the Spaniards will not advance. The Pope is on the point of breaking into an open quarrel with the Queen of Hungary. Her Apostolic Majesty's general* has seized two abbeys in the state of Milan belonging to Valenti Gonzaga,s his6 secretary of state, which the Pope so resents that he has wrote a thun­ dering letter7 to Vienna to tell her that he looks upon this step as an open affront to his person and insists upon restitution and satisfaction, and to indemnify the Cardinal ordered that the income of those abbeys should be made good to him out of the Chamber.8 Whilst this affair was depending and they were waiting for the return of the courier9 an accident happened that will not, it is thought, help towards getting his Holiness satisfaction, but may widen the breach. Cardinal Acquaviva who is omnipotent at Rome took it into his head that a 5.
