This work is protected against unauthorized copying under Title 17, United States Code. ProQuest LLC 789 East Eisenhower Parkway P.O. Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract The thesis deals with the creation of a ‘public’ in St Petersburg during the first half of the eighteenth century. The term ‘public’ has generated a considerable historiography dealing with its implications for the field of eighteenth-century studies, which are discussed in the introduction along with the contemporary definitions of the word. In eighteenth-century Russia, the term ‘public’ usually carried the meaning of ‘audience’, typically in reference to the theatre and other spectacles. The definition of this and other similar terms provides an important framework through which to analyse the various elements of this phenomenon. This analysis has centred on the city of St Petersburg in this period for several reasons. Firstly, it was the seat of both the Russian government and the Court around a decade after its foundation and Peter I ensured its rapid population.

  • Or Catherine Ii's Petersburg
    “OUT OF THE FORMER DUCK’S NEST”, OR CATHERINE II’S PETERSBURG At the beginning of Catherine II’s reign, St. Petersburg was a bustling, growing city that was developing quickly and becoming even more beautiful. The events of the palace coup on June 28 1762, leading to Catherine’s ascension to the throne cheered on by people in Nevsky Avenue, gave Petersburg a fresh start for further development. Its population was growing steadily so that by the end of the 18th century Petersburg surpassed Moscow itself in population – more than 200,000 people lived there. But it was not the abundant population that made Catherine’s Peters burg remarkable. The city’s fate was predestined by a number of important factors. To begin with, under Catherine, the city became one of the world’s political centres. International affairs that in fluenced the general situation in Europe were settled in Petersburg. Petersburg was not only the largest, most northern port city, but also the residence of a great ruler who gloriously reigned over her immense empire for more than three decades. Under her, Russia’s political, economic and mili tary powers reached their prime and were striking for the contemporaries. Joseph II, the Emperor of Austria, wrote once that Catherine was able to fix arbitrarily the rouble’s exchange rate, and if she would take a fancy to introduce leather money, this would also be accepted, – so miraculously rich was Russia. None of the European courts could compete in splendour with Petersburg. Its expendi tures under Catherine were unthinkable for all other monarchies.
