Mentor: Paula J. Warrick, Ph.D. ABSTRACT May 31, 2003, found Russian President Vladimir V. Putin presiding over a unique ceremony in St. Petersburg attended by heads of state including Gerhard Schroeder, Silvio Berlusconi, George W. Bush, Jacques Chirac, Tony Blair and Junichiro Koizumi along with hundreds of well-wishers, celebrities, diplomats, and art lovers representing the different nations of the world. What had brought them together was the tercentenary celebration of the founding of St. Petersburg, Peter the Great’s legendary monument to civilized achievement. At the heart of this grand celebration was the unveiling of a newly reconstructed room, a legend, stolen by the Nazis and then lost after World War II: the resplendent, toffee-colored Amber Room. Once housed in the grand Catherine Palace in Tsarskoye Selo, the summer residence of Russia’s last ruling family, the Romanovs, the room was once called the “Eighth Wonder of the World.” What happened to the original room is a mystery that continues to inspire historians and treasure hunters around the globe.

Reflect. Explore. The National WWII Museum’s Tyranny on Two Fronts land and cruise program, featuring noted historian Dr. Alexandra Richie, explores WITH THE NATIONAL WWII MUSEUM EDUCATIONAL TRAVEL PROGRAM the tangled web of alliances along the Baltic Sea coast during World War II. This 9-night educational program on board the magnificent Le Soléal takes you to historic ports of call including Stockholm, Helsinki, St. Petersburg, Tallinn, and Copenhagen to trace the complicated decisions the Baltic nations faced as wartime pressure mounted on them to collaborate with either Nazi Germany or the Soviet Union. Events in the Baltic played a key role in shaping the outcome of World War II. During the early years of the conflict, Scandinavia and the Baltic countries endured one-of-a-kind circumstances. With brutal dictators arrayed on both sides, Sweden, Norway, and Finland found themselves trapped in the middle and had to rely on a complex set of negotiations and alliances for survival. The Red Army’s disastrous performance in the early part of the “Winter War” with Finland (1939-40) led Hitler to believe that an invasion of the Soviet Union would be a simple matter. Finland joined the Germans in the initial drive into Russia in 1941, but stopped short of launching a direct attack on Leningrad (known today as St.

INTRODUCTION "To the victor belong the spoils of the enemy."2 The Ro- mans exhibited treasures captured from their prisoners; Napo- 3 leon did the same almost two thousand years later. Throughout world history, looting treasures belonging to ene- mies in times of war has been a constant.4 Looting occurred as recently as the Persian Gulf War, where Saddam Hussein re- moved collections of cultural property from Kuwait. At the end of the 19th century, an idea emerged that cultural objects should be protected from armed, military conflict.5 As a result, the Hague Conventions of 1899 and 1907 included provisions designed to "protect cultural institutions, historical monuments and works of art from premeditated seizure, destruction, or damage."6 During World War II, Adolph Hitler and his Nazi soldiers wrought havoc on Europe. In their quest to establish a superior 1 "They are the last prisoners of World War II, about to emerge from the dark rooms where they were locked away 50 years ago."

  • Gov. Sonny Perdue and His Team of Lawyers Are Footprints As Foolproof As Fingerprints?
    OOctcttoberober 2200003 mmberber 2 Gov. Sonny Perdue and His Team of Lawyers Are footprints as foolproof as fingerprints? The prosecutor in a capital offense case wanted to submit footprints taken inside a shoe as evidence. Two nights before the trial, the defense attorney received a Mealey’s E-Mail News Report about a case that questioned the admissibility of this evidence. The Mealey’s E-Mail News Report notified the defense attorney of a recent court decision from the highest court in a neighboring state. He was surprised to find the prosecution’s expert witness had also testified in that case. But the court held that footprints from inside a shoe were not a recognized area for expert testimony under the Daubert standard. As the defense attorney continued his search of analytical sources from Matthew Bender®, including Moore’s Federal Practice® on the LexisNexis™ services, he quickly found further supportive commentary and analysis.

It’s all possible, and this January you can stamp another exciting destination to your min- iature passport with the collection’s acquisition of the Catherine Palace, the legendary summer residence of the Russian tsars. “This exhibit is not only breathtaking, it’s monumental in the sense that it has never been on display,” explains Kaye Savage Browning, curator for the collection. “It was in the private home of well-known miniature collector, Carole Kaye, but not exhibited to the public. I was able to see it as a work-in-progress at the Kensington Dollhouse Festival in London about ten years ago, and even in its incomplete state I was over- whelmed by its grandeur.” The Catherine Palace, created by British min- iaturist Robert Dawson, is a 1:12-scale (one inch to one foot) reproduction of one of the world’s erine the Great, overthrew her dreadful husband The 1:12-scale reproduction of the most opulent and storied castles.

  • Amber Inspirations
    Amber inspirations Pomorskie Tourist Board Amber inspirations The modern Amber Route is a unique journey through centuries of tradition that has had a tremendous impact on Poland’s region of Pomorskie (Pomerania). There are numerous events for tourists from all around the world to enjoy: museum exhibitions, educational workshops, amber crafting presentations, fashion shows and trade fairs or mass outdoor events. And last but not least, solid weekend offers focusing on amber are a strength of the region and make it stand out. The Amber Route does not form a uniform line but its most interesting landmarks in the Pomorskie Region have been marked out for you. There are several thematic tours worth taking to places associated with amber. The greatest number of those are located in Gdańsk, for that reason the city is called the World Capital of Amber. Amber Amber is the hardened fossil resin of trees, one of over 130 kinds that can be found all around the world. They differ by place, age and the tree of origin. Baltic amber was formed more than 40 million years ago. Its largest deposits are located under the seabed of the Bay of Gdańsk. It is the only fossil resin to contain from 3% to 8% of succinic acid, which is a natural catalyst for cell metabolism, making it beneficial for health. Natural amber is characterized by the richness of colour and variety of types. The varied colour palette and different degrees of transparency were created by the conditions to which the amber was exposed while travelling between deposits.

  • A Discussion Guide to Salt to the Sea by Ruta Sepetys
    THE #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER WINNER of the CARNEGIE MEDAL A Discussion & Research Guide RUTA SEPETYS TO SALTTHE SEA Those who are gone are not necessarily lost. Author’s Note This book is a work of historical fi ction. The Wilhelm Gustloff, the Amber Room, and Operation Hannibal, however, are very real. The sinking of the Wilhelm Gustloff is the deadliest disaster in maritime history, with losses dwarfi ng the death tolls of the famous ships Titanic and Lusitania. Yet remarkably, most people have never heard of it. On January 30, 1945, four torpedoes waited in the belly of Soviet submarine S-13. Each torpedo was painted with a scrawled dedication: For the Motherland. For the Soviet People. For Lenin- grad. For Stalin. Three of the four torpedoes were launched, destroying the Wilhelm Gustloff and killing estimates of more than nine thousand people. The majority of the passengers on the Gustloff were civilians, with an estimated fi ve thousand being children. The ghost ship, as it is sometimes called, now lies off the coast of Poland, the large gothic letters of her name still visible underwater. Over two million people were successfully evacuated during Operation Hannibal, the largest sea evacuation in modern history. Hannibal quickly transported not only soldiers but also civilians to safety from the advancing Russian troops. Lithuanians, Latvians, Estonians, ethnic Germans, and residents of the East Prussian and Polish corridors all fl ed toward the sea. My father’s cousins were among them. My father, like Joana’s mother, waited in refugee camps hoping to return to Lithuania.
