EXCERPTS FROM THE BOOK UKRAINA I POLITIKA ANT ANTY: ZAPISKI EVREYA I GRAZHDAN IN A * ARNOLD MARGOLIN I Soon after his return from Petrograd to Kiev in February 1918, Arnold Margolin was elected one of the Justices of the newly or­ ganized Supreme Court of the Ukrainian Republic. The Supreme Court (PraviteVstvuyushchii Senat) of the Rus­ sian Empire had been, in fact, abolished by the Bolsheviks. Once the Ukraine was proclaimed a separate body politic, a high court of appeals had to be established.1 It was the task of the Central Council (Tsentral’na Rada)2 to elect members to that supreme judicial institution. Among the candidates first nominated were those members of the Kiev Circuit Court and the Kiev Chamber of Justice who were noted for their staunchness and liberalism in the era of Shcheglovitov.3 Three of them—Achkasov, Radchenko, Butovsky —had demonstrated civic courage in connection with the Beilis case,4 in submitting dissenting opinions protesting against the * We present three excerpts from Arnold Margolin’s book Ukraina i politika Antanty: Zapiski evreya і grazhdanina, S. Efron, Berlin [1922], which were edited by Dr. Leonid C. Sonevytsky who also compiled footnotes and wrote the short italicized introductions to each excerpt. These selections characterize Margolin's activities in the period of 1918-1919, and include the following subdivisions: I. In the Supreme Court of the Ukraine, pp. 60-64 of the original. II. Entering into the Ukrainian Diplomatic Service, pp. 103-107. III. The East-European Policy of France in the Spring and Summer of 1919, pp. 150-154. 1 The Supreme Court (General*nyi Sud) of the Ukrainian Republic was estab­ lished by the law of December 15, 1917. 2 Provisional Parliament of Ukraine in 1917-1918. 3 Imperial Russian Minister of Justice April 1906—July 1915. 4 Mendel Beilis was a Jew accused by authorities of the Russian Imperial Gov­ ernment of murdering a Christian boy, allegedly for ritual purposes. Arnold Margolin acted as a member of the counsel for the defense of Beilis. The trial took place in Kiev in 1913. The jury founa Beilis not guilty and acquitted him. 1461 1462 THE ANNALS OF THE UKRAINIAN ACADEMY decision to disbar me. Under Shcheglovitov this was tantamount to incurring disfavor, which meant the end of their official careers as far as promotions were concerned. All of them were elected by a vast majority of the Central Council. Elected at the same time were well-known Ukrainian leaders from the bench of the Odessa circuit court: Shelukhyn5 and Shyyaniv as well as Khrutsky and the Moscow lawyer Khvostov. While sub­ sequent candidates were to be put forward by this original group, the official initiative for nominating candidates was vested in the political parties represented in the Central Council. My candidacy for membership on the Supreme Court was proposed in the [Central] Council by the committee of the All-Russian Labor-People’s Socialist Party, to which I still be­ longed,6 and was supported by all the Ukrainian parties. The elections were held on April 2 [1918] and Professor Bohdan Kistyakovsky, M. P. Vasylenko,7 P. V. Yatsenko, and I were elected by secret ballot. The number of votes which I received attested to the com­ plete lack of anti-Semitism among members of the Central Coun­ cil, while the names and the past activities of other candidates elected with me to the Supreme Court indicated the possibility of implanting principles of true justice in the Ukraine. Sub­ sequently the Central Council advanced the candidacy of Greif- enturn, a noted civil lawyer, a former member of the Kiev Chamber of Justice and Assistant Attorney General of the Senat (Supreme Court), a courageous and staunch jurist who had also submitted a dissenting opinion on the occasion of Subsequently, in connection with the Beilis case, Margolin himself was tried in disciplinary proceedings and was disbarred. Not until 1917 was Margolin's case reviewed and dismissed on the ground that there had been “not a single reprehensible element” in the actions charged against him. In consequence, Margolin's rights were restored. 5 Subsequently Minister of Justice. 6 Margolin was a member of the All-Russian Party of Labor-People’s Socialists until June 1918, when he resigned from that party and joined the Ukrainian Party of Socialist Federalists. 7 Later Minister of Education and President of the Supreme Court, a promi­ nent historian of Ukrainian law. EXCERPTS FROM BOOK UKRAINA I POLITIKA ANTANTY 1463 my disciplinary trial in connection with the Beilis case. Greif- enturn, who lived in Petrograd, consented to the nomination; his appointment took place under Hetman Skoropadsky’s ad­ ministration.8 Greifenturn arrived in Kiev seriously ill and soon passed away. I dwell on the history of these elections since it is little known or forgotten by the general public and yet is highly sig­ nificant and characteristic [of the period concerned]. We elected M. I. Radchenko as President of the Supreme Court. I was included, as a criminologist, in the Criminal Depart­ ment of Appeals. As early as May [1918] court sittings in all three Departments (Administrative, Civil, and Criminal) were opened, taking place temporarily, until separate premises could be found, in the building of the Kiev Chamber of Justice where at one time I had been destined to appear so often in my capacity of attorney and was to experience so much later on. Of all these members of that incomplete first composition of the Supreme Court I alone did not know the Ukrainian language. When I was first invited to submit an acceptance of nomination (in accordance with the required form), I was in the beginning greatly embarrassed by that circumstance, and gave notice of my lack of knowledge of the Ukrainian language. Thereupon an answer followed that during the first six months or even a year I could review cases and write decisions in Rus­ sian and that within this period of time it would be possible to master the Ukrainian language sufficiently. And indeed, subsequently I encountered no obstacles in this respect.

  • What Events Were Reported by the Old Rus' Chroniclers?
    What Events Were Reported by the Old Rus’ Chroniclers? Timofey V. Guimon The Institute of Universal History of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow The article is dedicated to a detailed study of a selected series of events reported by Rus’ chroniclers from the eleventh to the early fourteenth centuries.1* Items of information contained in the Primary Chronicle, as well as in the Laurentian, Hypatian (to 1200) and First Novgorodian (to 1352) Chronicles are catalogued, classified and analysed as a means of reflecting on guidelines that the chroniclers might have followed. Firstly, remarks on different kinds of events are counted in each chronicle and the percentages compared; this gives a general impression of the interests of the Old Rus’ chroniclers. Secondly, the distribution of four kinds of remarks (events in princely families, changes of ecclesiastical hierarchs, the building of churches, natural phenomena and disasters) is studied in connection with the history of the texts. In general, the analysis corroborates Mark Aleshkovsky’s point that recording these ‘non-political’ events is typical of the annalists who describe the present or recent past (those who wrote on the distant past dealt mostly with political events). But in some cases the situation seems more complicated: the repertoire of events reported in a chronicle could depend on the personal attitudes of annalists or their patrons, as well on the activity of a later compiler or reviser. The text of any of the extant Rus’ chronicles is heterogeneous.2 It reflects the work of many individuals. Some of them described events of the distant past; others recorded contemporary events; some created compilations, some revised or annotated already existing texts and so on.

Running head: The Missing Link of Jewish European Ancestry Keywords: Jewish genome, Khazars, Rhineland, Ashkenazi Jews, population isolate, Population structure Please address all correspondence to Eran Elhaik at [email protected] Phone: 410-502-5740. Fax: 410-502-7544. 1 Abstract The question of Jewish ancestry has been the subject of controversy for over two centuries and has yet to be resolved. The “Rhineland Hypothesis” proposes that Eastern European Jews emerged from a small group of German Jews who migrated eastward and expanded rapidly. Alternatively, the “Khazarian Hypothesis” suggests that Eastern European descended from Judean tribes who joined the Khazars, an amalgam of Turkic clans that settled the Caucasus in the early centuries CE and converted to Judaism in the 8th century. The Judaized Empire was continuously reinforced with Mesopotamian and Greco-Roman Jews until the 13th century. Following the collapse of their empire, the Judeo-Khazars fled to Eastern Europe. The rise of European Jewry is therefore explained by the contribution of the Judeo-Khazars. Thus far, however, their contribution has been estimated only empirically; the absence of genome-wide data from Caucasus populations precluded testing the Khazarian Hypothesis. Recent sequencing of modern Caucasus populations prompted us to revisit the Khazarian Hypothesis and compare it with the Rhineland Hypothesis.

This is particular­ ly true for the classical period wnere the sources are few and scattered. For the archaic period the situation has been somewhat better. One of the first attempts toward the study of Corinthian 1 history was made in 1876 by Ernst Curtius. This brief art­ icle had no pretensions to a thorough investigation of the subject, merely suggesting lines of inquiry and stressing the importance of numisihatic evidence. A contribution of 2 similar score was undertaken by Erich Wilisch in a brief discussion suggesting some of the problems and possible solutions. This was followed by a second brief discussion 3 by the same author.

He transferred the ships from Miletus to the Hellespont in order to ensure the cooperation of the satrap Pharnavazus and to hinder the Athenians’grain supply from the northern coast of the Black Sea. He was defeated near Cynossema followed by a defeat near Abydus. In the spring of 410 B.C. Mindarus suffered the ultimate defeat from Alcibiades during the Cyzicus naval battle when he was killed.

Introduction Mindarus was an admiral of the Peloponnesian Fleet during the Ionian War in the period 411 – 419 B.C. The main sources of information with regard to his activity are ancient authors, mainly Thucydides, Xenophon and Diodorus and it is almost exclusively confined to his military activity in the area of the Hellespont. 2. Biography In 411 B.C. Mindarus succeeded Astyochus as admiral of the Peloponnesian Fleet in Miletus. Discontented however from satrap Tissaphernes’attitude who did not keep his promise to reinforce the Spartan fleet with Phoenician ships, he headed accompanied by 73 ships towards the Hellespont, with the intention of accepting the proposal of Pharnabazus, the Persian satrap of Daskyleion, to instigate a rebellion of the coastal cities under Athenian rule which formerly belonged to the satrapy of Pharnabazus.
