Ever since the death of Tsar Boris Godunov in 1605, Muscovy had been suffering from a dynastic crisis. It was divided by civil war and had been invaded by Sweden and the Polish‑Lithuanian Commonwealth. In 1610, the elected Polish king, Sigismund III Vasa, caused uproar in Russia by installing his son Ladislaus on the Moscow throne. In 1612, the Russians succeeded in defeating the army of the Commonwealth. In the following year, they chose a new tsar, Mikhail Romanov, who established a new dynasty that was to rule the country for more than three centuries. -

A First Step Towards a Regional Risk Assessment,” Antipyrene Publishing, 2015
Preface Late in March of this year I attended a lecture by Professor Anna Lowenhaupt Tsing at Haus der Kulturen der Welt, where she presented a collaborative project, the Feral Atlas, an online repository of stories about the Anthropocene and how humans and nonhumans together make 01/19 worlds at scale. In her introductory remarks, she spoke of the demand often put forward by humanist colleagues to tell hopeful stories about the Anthropocene rather than view it as an undifferentiated destructive force slowly approaching a zero hour, a reckoning that will come too late. ÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊÊIn her talk, Tsing spoke of the Anthropocene Michael Baers as “patchy,” with development arising in specific places and through specific human interventions, producing unforeseen ancillary A First Step effects (a conceptual framework that also structures her recent book, The Mushroom at the Towards a End of the World, an anthropological study of the international trade in matsutake mushrooms, a Regional Risk delicacy in Japan, that grows in “disturbed” forests). Tsing takes “patch” from “patch dynamics,” a term first coined by scientists in the Assessment 1940s to describe the interactive structure and dynamics of plants occupying discrete ecosystems, since used by ecologists when referring to the mosaic of heterogeneous, interactive sub-ecosystems found within specific biotopes. In Tsing’s usage, “patch” embraces both plant and human interactions resulting from capitalist disruption of natural habitats and modes of production: monoculture cotton farming (with the plantation as a model for industrialization) that transformed the boll t weevil from minor nuisance to a major pest n e s r throughout North and Central America; or global m e s a s trade, as in the recent introduction of the B e l s e s parasitic water mold Phytophthora from Germany a A h k c to the Western United States, where it has killed i s i M R Ê off natural woodlands. -
Metallurgy in Numismatics 5
Numismatic Chronicle 172 213 METALLURGY IN NUMISMATICS 5 NC EDITORS’ NOTE THE RNS held a conference at the Society of Antiquaries in London on 14-16th September 2000 entitled ‘Counterfeiting: Ancient and Modern’. It was the intention to publish the contributors’ papers as the fifth monograph on metallurgy in numismatics within the Special Publications series. For various reasons the publishing project was beset by delays, and, given the timescale, several of the papers were either withdrawn or not considered suitable for publication. Eventually eight papers remained, but their combined length was insufficient to justify publication in monograph form. It was therefore decided that MIN 5 should be published as a separate enclave within NC 2012. The eight papers which follow were edited by M.R. COWELL and J. ORNA-ORNSTEIN, with support from D.R. HOOK and G. WILLIAMS.

Non De Fide, Sed De Securitate Pacis.1 Faith and Politics in the Views of Protestants in the Polish‑Lithuanian Commonwealth, 1631‑32
Odrodzenie i Reformacja w Polsce PL ISSN 0029‑8514 Special Issue Urszula Augustyniak (Warsaw) Non de Fide, Sed de Securitate Pacis.1 Faith and Politics in the Views of Protestants in the Polish‑Lithuanian Commonwealth, 1631‑32 Traditionally, political views of Polish Protestants are investigated in the context of struggle for the so‑called religious tolerance, although at the time the Warsaw Confederation was regarded not as an ‘edict of tolera‑ tion’ but a guarantee of estate privileges and a principle of the political system of the Commonwealth. Mirosław Korolko’s analysis of political arguments used in the controversy over the Confederation2 – on a par with denominational, historiosophical, legal and socio‑economic argu‑ mentation – does not explain the relation between propaganda activity and actual attitudes of Protestants as citizens. Different from Catholic, the views of Polish and Lithuanian Protes‑ tants on the relationship between religion and politics – for instance, on the genesis of monarchical power and its obligations towards the state, the subordination of the clergy to general laws, the right of the subjects to resist edicts in conflict with the laws of God – were the result of doctrinal premises formulated in the twentieth chapter of John Calvin’s Institutio religionis christianae3 and in the Sandomierz 1 A.

Cooper A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research in partial fullfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. Department of History, May' 1962. McGill University, Montreal. PREFACE During the last fifteen years, a cons!derable interest has been shown by historians in the histories of countries thst are relatively small and were formerly of no importance in the general scheme of world politics. We have seen a multitude of works on numerous states in Latin .l\merica, Asia., and lately, Africa. The achievements of peoples without a history i~ the western European concept of the term are presented to us as a pageant of peoples striv::tng to free themselves from 6olonial domination and being prey to the disruptive forces of our mass civilization. Looking over this output of books., we are tempted to ask ourselvea why other areas which, on the contrsry., nave played an import ant part in the history of man and which now contribute a distinctive philosop~y of life have been almost completely relegated to the shadows of obscurity? ':!.he Scandinavian countries provide a good example of this. ln the hiatory of western civiliza.tion, from the time when the first Vikings left the shelter of their vikas '(:rotee tcd by the loft y mountains of t11eir fjords, and went out to England, Ire land., Normandy, r~orthern Russia., Constantin ople, Iceland, Greenland, and even Vineland, thrOl:gh the times of Queen Margarethe, Christian II, Gustavus Adolphus, Charles XII., Bernadotte, Bishop GrunJing, S9)'ren Kirkegaard., Henryk Ibsen, August Strindberg, and Hans Christiar.. -

The Minting of Platinum Roubles PART IV: PLATINUM ROUBLES AS an ARCHIVE for the HISTORY of PLATINUM PRODUCTION
DOI: 10.1595/147106706X128890 The Minting of Platinum Roubles PART IV: PLATINUM ROUBLES AS AN ARCHIVE FOR THE HISTORY OF PLATINUM PRODUCTION By Thilo Rehren Institute of Archaeology, University College London, London WC1H 0PY; E-mail: [email protected] This paper augments a series of articles on Russian roubles in this Journal (1–3) with a summary of recent research into the manufacturing history and materials characterisation of these coins. The results are not only significant for the identification of genuine roubles issued between 1828 and 1845, ‘Novodel’issues produced in the late 19th century, and outright forgeries of the 20th century, but offer a fascinating insight into the difficulties encountered at the time in the large-scale refining and processing of platinum metal. A range of instrumental methods have been used to elucidate the magnetic properties, chemical composition and low density of genuine roubles, and to reveal their complex internal structure. The resulting new insights into the historical practice of platinum metallurgy are unbiased by concerns about industrial espionage, state secrets, and professional rivalry. The first half of the 19th century was a crucial respectively. Large-scale platinum ore processing period in the discovery and metallurgical study of began following the decision in April 1828 to issue platinum and its allied metals, iridium, osmium, platinum roubles. This was done at the Royal Mint palladium, rhodium and ruthenium. Only platinum in St. Petersburg, supervised by General was known in 1800, but all six were known by 1844 Sobolevsky.

The subsequent development of their refin- about 20 tonnes of platinum ore from 1828 to ing and production processes is not well known, 1845, striking more than 1.3 million 3 rouble probably due to commercial secrecy.
