VORONTSOV PALACE Palace and park of Earl Vorontsov in the town of Alupka Vorontsov’s Palace was constructed from 1830 to 1848, to be used as a summer residence of the governor-general of the Novorossiysky Krai, Prince Mikhail Vorontsov. The palace was built to the design of the English architect Edward Blore (1789–1879). An important architectural characteristic of the palace was its relation to the nearby Crimean Mountains, with which it harmonized perfectly. In February 1945, during the world-famous Yalta Conference, the Alupka Palace hosted the English Delegation headed by Winston Churchill, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. MASSANDRA, NIKITA Massandra Palace, Nikita Botanical Garden The Palace of Emperor Alexander III was built to the design of the French architect Bouchart. The construction started in 1881 under the order of the governor's heir, grand duke Vorontsov, but only after seven years since his death the uncompleted palace was bought by Emperor Alexander III and was finished in 3 years. In the Soviet period this architectural monument was the closed object, became the state cottage, where the Communist party and government leaders stopped to rest. Nowadays the palace is opened for visitors. Established in 1812 by Christian Steven, the Nikita Botanical Garden is one of the oldest research and development centers of Ukraine. Here you can see a 1,000 year old juniper and a 500 year old oak tree, both native to Crimea, as well as many of almost 15,000 species collected from all corners of the globe. AI-PETRI By funicular to the top of Ai-Petri Not being the highest point of the Crimean Mountains, Ai-Petri is undoubtedly one of the most impressive tops of Crimea. A 20-minute trip by funicular will bring you 1,234 meters high and offer you a panorama of the Southern Coast of Crimea and the shoreless Black Sea. Historical Yalta Livadia Palace, Pokrova Church in Oreanda Livadia Palace was a summer retreat of the last Russian tsar, Nicholas II. The Yalta Conference was held there in 1945, bringing together leaders of the USSR, the USA and the Great Britain to shape destiny of the post-war Europe. The settlement of Oreanda, a former grand duke mansion, is located to the south of Livadia. From Livadia it can be reached by the so called Sunny Path, which was laid as far back as 1861 and was known as the Tsar’s. One of Oreanda’s sights is the magnificent Pokrova Church built in the Georgian-Byzantine style, which perfectly matches with a severe, mountainous landscape of Oreanda. BALAKLAVA ANTIQUITIES Balaklava Submarine Museum, Sheremetievs’ Museum, Seafront Like many other Crimean sites, the settlement of Balaklava is full of mystery. It offers a great number of legends, ranging from Odysseus’s adventures to teeming treasures of the British steamer “The Black Prince” sunken near the bay’s cliffs. The excursion “Balaklava Antiquities” includes visiting the famous Balaklava Submarine Museum, Sheremetievs’ Museum dedicated to the Crimean War, and the Seafront. SEVASTOPOL – THE CITY OF TWO EPOCHS “Panorama” museum, Chersonese, city centre Sevastopol is the city of memorials and monuments, obelisks and museums. Its heroic past is narrated by the Panorama “Sevastopol’s Defense, 1854-1855”, the Diorama “The Storm of Sapun Mountain, 7 May 1944”, the Seaside Boulevard, and the Earl’s Dock. Older history still lives in the walls of Chersonese, which has preserved ancient and medieval monuments of Crimea. Chersonese is a sacred place for Orthodox Christians: here grand duke Vladimir was baptized in 988. BAKHCHISARAY Khan’s Palace, Chufut-Kale cave town, Uspensky Monastery Bakhchisaray is the capital of the former Crimean-Tatar Khanate. The Khan’s Palace is a unique example of oriental architecture and the museum of the Crimean Tatars’ culture. One of its masterpieces is the famous “Fountain of Tears” sung by Alexander Pushkin, the greatest Russian poet. In the surroundings of Bakhchisaray you can visit one of the most famous cave monasteries of Crimea – the Uspensky Monastery, as well as the cave town of Chufut-Kale. SEA TRIP By motor boat to the Swallow’s Nest Castle The famous “Swallow’s Nest”– the symbol of the Southern Coast of Crimea – represents a small romantic castle, located by some miracle at the very edge of the large Avrora Cliff..

  • Up to Their Elbows in Blood: the Crimean War and The
    UP TO THEIR ELBOWS IN BLOOD: THE CRIMEAN WAR AND THE PROFESSIONALIZATION OF MEDICINE Fought in the mid-1850s, many scholars regard the Crimean War as largely insignificant. However in reality, the historical contributions of the war are important – particularly those contributions pertaining to medicine. This seemingly “unnecessary” war facilitated the modernization of Western medicine; methods used during and directly after the Crimean War were standard until World War Two. A brief history of the war reveals medical data that constitutes the bulk of my interpretation. The war’s specific medical achievements are highlighted throughout the essay. The findings in this paper are by no means conclusive, but they exhibit that it is important to look beyond Florence Nightingale, the war’s most famous and studied individual, and gaze upon the larger trends of medicine. Her story is covered in some detail in this paper, but she is not the sole source of innovation from this rather disastrous war. The professionalization of Western medicine stands out as one of the great accomplishments of this war, despite scholars viewing the war as useless. Key words: cholera epidemics, battlefield surgery, Florence Nightingale, Nikolay Pirogov, William Howard Russell, medical modernization Tyler Eaves HIST 586: Advanced Seminar in History May 11, 2017 Eaves 2 “It is good for us to be here”1 On the night of November 14, 1854, an exhausted woman penned a letter to a distant reader. By candlelight she scrawled in hurried script about the “appalling horror” surrounding her. “Steeped up to [their] necks in blood,” she and her helpers worked tirelessly upon men who “bear pain and mutilation with unshrinking heroism, and die or are cut up without a complaint.” Absences of brooms, soap, and towels only complicated the dire state of affairs.

S AVIN G S Dear Graduates, Parents and Friends of Brown: Like America’s Mississippi River or Germany’s Rhine, Ukraine’s Dnieper River has defined a nation. Sweeping across the Ukrainian countryside, it has traced a broad course through Ukrainian history. Intrepid Viking warrior-merchants once plied its waters, seeking trade routes to the Black Sea and Constantinople. Along its banks rose the stately city of Kiev, and across the Dnieper’s fertile plains Cossack horsemen once rode. Join us on an 11-night voyage on the Dnieper River and the Black Sea aboard the M.S. DNIEPER PRINCESS, the finest ship cruising Ukrainian waterways. From ancient Kiev, a thriving political, religious, cultural and commercial center when Moscow was little more than a village, sail south along the Dnieper through a landscape of tranquil beauty, passing through wooded hills, endless steppes and lush farmlands. Cross the Black Sea to the Crimean Peninsula, a popular retreat since the days of the czars, and to the cosmopolitan seaport of Odessa, Ukraine’s gateway to Turkey and the lands of the Eastern Mediterranean. This unique itinerary introduces you to the seldom-seen treasures of a nation reasserting its identity and reclaiming its roots as it rises from seven decades of Soviet domination.

  • The Use of Chloroform by British Army Surgeons During the Crimean War
    Medical History, 1998, 42: 161-193 The Use of Chloroform by British Army Surgeons during the Crimean War HENRY CONNOR* The use of chloroform during the Crimean War was determined by the opinions and experience of medical staff and by the availability of chloroform on the battlefields and in the military hospitals. This paper will begin by reviewing medical opinion on the value of chloroform in military surgery at the start of the war, and after examining the availability and use of chloroform during the war, it will conclude with an examination of medical opinion at the end of the war. A brief chronology of the major military events is given in Table 1. Medical Opinion in the Army at the Start of the War On 12 May 1847, less than six months after the arrival of anaesthesia in Britain, John Snow delivered a lecture on the use of ether in surgical operations to the medical members of the United Services Institution.1 In this lecture Snow, with his characteristic insight, foresaw many of the potential benefits of anaesthesia in military practice. Some of these, which were later to be realized during the Crimean War, have been italicized in the following quotations from Snow's paper. He argued that . the pain of a surgical operation is greater than that of the wound itself. Whilst the latter is instantaneous, and its approach unknown, the approach of an operation is seen, and its cuts are necessarily deliberate; ... The blessing would be great of merely preventing this pain, but I am firmly convinced that the exhibition of ether will be attended with the still greater advantage of saving many lives.

Vernadsky Crimean Federal University, Simferopol, Russia *E-mail: [email protected] Received 24 November 2020 │ Accepted by V. Pešić: 11 January 2021 │ Published online 20 January 2021. Abstract The results of the first studies of the ecosystem state of the underwater part of the channel, artificially created in the middle of the 20th century on the western shore of the Balaklava Bay (Sevastopol) as a naval base of the Black Sea Fleet for the submarines repair, are presented. Channel's ecosystem is determined by uniqueness of anthropogenic formation and considered as analogue of natural Black Sea cave. Hydrospelological survey of the channel and biological studies allowed assessing its current state, the nature of biofouling of its walls and anthropogenic and technical pollution of the bottom. Macrofauna of the channel wall biofouling is represented by the Mytilaster lineatus community, which has a high level of species abundance (about 80 species have been registered) and quantitative development. Both in taxonomic diversity and in quantitative terms, this community is comparable to the rocky substrate community near open Crimean coasts, but with a smaller share of crustacean group development.
