    CZARTORYSKI AND EUROPEAN UNITY 1770-1861 POLAND'S MILLENNIUM SERIES OF THE KOSCIUSZKO FOUNDATION Czartoryski AND EUROPEAN UNITY 1770-1861 BY M. KUKIEL If we wish to progress we must have an object we have not yet attained. And in order to be always in progress we must be capable of conceiving an object which will never be attained. —CZARTORYSKI, 1803. PRINCETON NEW JERSEY PRINCETON UNIVERSITY PRESS 1955 Copyright, 1955, by Princeton University Press London: Geoffrey Cumberlege, Oxford University Press L. c. CARD 54-6076 Printed in the United States of America by Princeton University Press, Princeton, New Jersey PREFACE IT WAS A VERY LONG LIFE—it lasted more than ninety years—and from Czartoryski's early youth until his death it was constantly devoted to the cause of his country and to the still greater cause of the freedom and unity of Europe. It was continuously con­ nected with the most important events of 19th century European history. Czartoryski was born before the First Partition of Poland, when the Commonwealth was still intact and, despite its weaknesses and ordeals, still a great power. He appeared on the political scene at the time of Poland's internal regeneration and the con­ stitutional reform of the Great Diet. After Poland's catastrophe he was a hostage at the court of Catherine II; a Russian dignitary, he became a friend of the Grand Duke Alexander and, after some dramatic adventures, the young Emperor's mentor and closest confidant. He was a member of the "Secret Committee" (the real government of Russia), Acting Minister of Foreign Affairs, re­ sponsible for an entirely new policy of the Empire and for plans for the reshaping of Europe that would ensure to its nations free­ dom and security and lay the foundation-stones of a European union.

  • Biden Administration and the Reunification of Korea
    UPF Europe and the Middle East ILC: Biden Administration and the Reunification of Korea Krisztian Kecskss June 29, 2021 Europe and the Middle East - The fourth session of the June 2021 International Leadership Conference was "Biden Administration Policies and the Reunification of the Korean Peninsula." The June 29 session was one of six ILC webinars that were held from June 24 to 30, 2021, under the theme of "Toward Peaceful Reunification of the Korean Peninsula." UPF and The Washington Times Foundation organized the session to focus on diplomatic steps being taken by the new administration of the United States to improve relations between North and South Korea. As the moderator, Kaeleigh Moffitt, the congressional liaison of UPF, gave a brief introduction to the topic. Speakers Hon. Dan Burton, member of the U.S. House of Representatives (1983-2013) Harry Kazianis, senior director of Korean studies at the Center for the National Interest, United States Dr. Barthélémy Courmont, senior research fellow, Institute of International and Strategic Relations, France Dr. Alexander Vorontsov, chairman, Department for Korean and Mongolian Studies, Institute of Oriental Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences; associate professor, Moscow State Institute of International Relations Hon. Dan Burton explained that the Biden Administration - though indirectly - has had an effect on possible Korean reunification in many ways. The utmost priority of this administration, Mr. Burton said, is stabilizing the United States enough so that it can extend its influence abroad. He pointed out the potential risks caused by the ever-increasing national debt, fueled by the administration's attempts to keep the economy afloat.

Toward the end of Dashkova's life, a young Irishwoman named Catherine Wilmot who enjoyed an extended visit with her issued the following warning, I have since I came here often thought what a task it would be to attempt to draw the Character of the Princess Daschkaw! I for my part think it would be absolutely impossible. Such are her peculiarities & inextricable varietys that the result would only appear like a Wisp of Human Contradictions .•• But she has as many Climates to her mind, as many Splinters of insulation, as many Oceans of agitated uncertainty, as many Etnas of destructive fire and as many Wild wastes of blighted Cultivation as exists in any quarter of the Globe! For my part I think she would be most in her element at the Helm of the State, or Generalissimo of the Army, or Farmer General of the Empire.

  • Art and Power in the Reign of Catherine the Great: the State Portraits
    Art and Power in the Reign of Catherine the Great: The State Portraits Erin McBurney Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Erin McBurney !All rights reserved ABSTRACT Art and Power in the Reign of Catherine the Great: The State Portraits Erin McBurney This dissertation examines the relationship between art and power in the reign of Catherine II of Russia (1762-1796). It considers Catherine’s state portraits as historical texts that revealed symbolic manifestations of autocratic power, underscoring the close relationship between aesthetics and politics during the reign of Russia’s longest serving female ruler. The Russian empress actively exploited the portrait medium in order to transcend the limitations of her gender, assert legitimacy and display herself as an exemplar of absolute monarchy. The resulting symbolic representation was protean and adaptive, and it provided Catherine with a means to negotiate the anomaly of female rule and the ambiguity of her Petrine inheritance. In the reign of Catherine the Great, the state portraits functioned as an alternate form of political discourse.

  • Solving the Korean Conundrum: Russia's Interaction with Major
    International Journal of Korean Unification Studies Vol. 26, No. 1, 2017, 109–149. Solving the Korean Conundrum: Russia’s Interaction with Major Actors in the Trump-Moon Era* Georgy Toloraya and Vassily Gabets Russia seeing peace, stability and the denuclearization of the Korean Pen- insula as priorities, will try to play the role of peacemaker and more or less neutral observer in a situation which has shifted due to the new leadership in Seoul and Washington. The authors argue that Russia should pay special attention the role of Moon Jae In. If he can implement a new policy, this could be a game-changer and Seoul could become the principal partner for Russia in solving the Korean conundrum. If the Trump administration would turn from pressure to diplomacy, possibilities for US-Russia cooper- ation could increase. Russia would mostly support Chinese positions but keep its own line. Understanding such tactics in this strategic triangle is the key to understanding Moscow’s efforts regarding the Korean problem, including multilateral aspects. At the same time, Russia cannot ignore North Korea being one of the few neighboring countries maintaining good relations with Pyongyang. The authors suggest the options for a start of a diplomatic process between the two Koreas and between North Korea and the U.S., as well as in multilateral format and analyze the role Russia might play. Keywords: Korean Issue, Russia and Korea, Trump’s Korean Policy, North Korea’s Nuclear and Missile Program, New ROK Government Foreign Policy Factors for Russia’s Strategy in Korean Affairs The Korean Peninsular situation gained new dynamism since the start of 2017, determined mostly by two new factors: U.S.

    29th NORTHEAST ASIA COOPERATION DIALOGUE AGENDA DIRECTORY June 10–12, 2019 Hong Kong 29th NORTHEAST ASIA COOPERATION DIALOGUE WELCOME We are delighted to welcome you to Hong Kong for the 29th Northeast Asia Cooperation Dialogue (NEACD). Deepening uncertainties and tensions in Northeast Asia and the international system more broadly make this meeting an opportune time to exchange ideas candidly among participants from all attending countries. With a rich selection of topics to be discussed at NEACD we are looking forward to our usual rounds of insightful and meaningful exchanges. As this is a Track 1.5 event and completely off the record, all the government and defense representatives come in a non-official status, which means they do not represent their governments. We hope that this will allow for free and frank discussions. You will find complete agendas and participant lists within this directory. We also wish to acknowledge the generous support of the Carnegie Corporation of New York, which has been a strong supporter of NEACD for many years. With best wishes, TAI MING CHEUNG SUSAN SHIRK DIRECTOR, IGCC DIRECTOR EMERITUS, IGCC 29th NORTHEAST ASIA COOPERATION DIALOGUE PRINCIPLES OF COOPERATION IN NORTHEAST ASIA 1997 The states of Northeast Asia share the common objectives of peace, prosperity, and security in the region. To achieve these ends, they advance the following principles for cooperation in Northeast Asia. 1. The states of Northeast Asia respect each other’s sovereignty, territorial integrity, and equality; accept that other countries have different political, economic, social, and cultural systems and the right to determine their own laws and regulations as well as other domestic affairs.

Any opinions or claims contained in this Working Paper do not necessarily reflect the views of HSE Maya Lavrinovich1 ALEXEI MALINOVSKII, POOR BUT NOBLE: TRANSLATING AUGUST VON KOZEBUE’S POVERTY AND NOBLENESS OF MIND AS A WAY OF SOCIAL SELF-PRESENTATION This paper discusses the problem of the adaptation of a new cultural model by the educated members of the Russian “middle class” in the late 18th century when new social skills and new kinds of the perception of social reality were transmitted to the public through the emotionally very intensive theatre performances. Examining the translation of the drama Poverty and Nobleness of Mind by August von Kozebue and taking into account that the drama was staged at the private theatre of Alexandr Vorontsov, Malinovskii’s patron, in 1799, I suggest that he had some apprehensions about his own noble status which he obtained in a specific way. He seems to face the choice: to act on his feelings as sentimental dramas instructed him and marry a poor but noble girl in 1790s, or wait until Vorontsov’s niece became a wealthy heiress what actually happened in a decade. JEL Classification: Z Key words: Russia, 18th century, Aleksei Malinovskii, August von Kotzebue, theatre, translation, ennoblement, sentimentalism, marriage strategies.

An obvious metaphorical fi lm, Eisenstein’s epic work alluded to the ominous threat of Nazi Germany. Th is modern, well- armed menace had appeared most evident in the military display in the 1934 Nuremberg gathering of the Nazi Party in Riefenstahl’s Triumph of the Will . Early scenes in Alexander Nevsky clearly suggest a potential German invasion and above all, the committing of atrocities on the Russian people. Th e Teutonic Knights capture the city of Pskov and hang resisters; they callously snatch children from their mothers and cast them into a blazing fi re, an unconscious portent of the Holocaust to come. Wearing a miter bearing swastikas, the Roman Catholic bishop blesses the Knights, thus sanctioning their acts of violence against the innocent civilians.

  • Russian Travels: from Arctic to Antarctic and Everything in Between
    www.bookvica.com RUSSIAN TRAVELS: FROM ARCTIC TO ANTARCTIC AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN 2017 F O R E W O R D Dear friends, We would like to present to you the effort of our recent work - catalogue of 50 Russian travel books and maps. This is our third big travel catalogue and just like Russian Empire in 19th century we are expanding the geography of influence. This time we covered all the continents with the help of outstanding Russian explorers of the time. Most of what you will see in the catalogue appeared in Russian first, some of it was never translated and remained practically unknown. A good example would be a book by Vasily Baranshchikov, a merchant from Nizhniy Novgorod, who was kidnapped and sold as a slave to a ship bound for Caribbean Sea - this accident made him the first Russian to cross the Atlantic in 1780s. Among other interesting places are Alaska, Hawaii, different parts of Arctic, South America, Nile, India, Cuba, etc. The special mention should be given to Russian travels to Asia, where so many important explorations were done. We are proud to have the selection of three first editions by Nikolay Przhevalsky, the man who spent 10 years of his life exploring Central Asia and Far East and whose impact is hard to diminish. Several books in ‘Asia’ category dedicated to Russian-Chinese relations, most of them are featured with nice plates. Traditionally our favourite category is Russian America and Arctic exploration. The jewel in the crown of the selection is the first edition of Lisiansky’s voyage - the account of the first Russian circumnavigation signed by the author.
