  • Nikolai Passek
    V Nikolai Passek After the departure of Ungern-Sternberg, Nikolai Gavrilovich Matiunin was appointed to the Melbourne consulate, but owing to ill health he was unable to take up the position. In July 1899, without having reached Australia, he was relieved of his duties. On 29 August (OS) 1899, Nikolai Pompeyevich Passek was appointed Russian consul.1 He left St Petersburg in February 1900 for Odessa, and from there sailed for Suez, and thence on the French steamer Australien to Melbourne, where he arrived at the very end of March, after a short stay in Adelaide. When the Australian press announced his arrival, a brief profile appeared: ‘Although he has never previously visited Australia Mr Passek is acquainted with our system of Government and politics. The Consul is a typical Russian and speaks several languages.’2 Nikolai Passek was born on 15 November (OS) 1850 into a landowning family in Kharkov. Having received his basic education at home, he was sent by his parents to King’s College in London, to improve his English. He then received his higher education at Moscow University, from which he graduated in 1874. From there, he went to work in the auditing office in Kharkov. He joined the Foreign Ministry in January 1876 and was attached to its Asian desk, but soon left to work in private enterprise. At the age of nearly fifty, he rejoined the Foreign Ministry and in 1899 3 received his first diplomatic posting, as consul in Melbourne. 1 AVPRI: 159-464-2577, ff 19–20. 2 The Advertiser, 27 March 1900, p.

LONDON ARCHIBALD CONSTABLE & CO., Ltd., 16, JAMES STREET, HAYMARKET, 1905- BRADBURY, AGNEW, & CO. LD., PRINTERS, LONDON AND TONBRIOGE.' MY MOTHER. INTRODUCTION. It will be my endeavour, in the following pages, to describe the social, ecclesiastical, and political conditions of Eastern Europe from 1613 to 1725, and trace the gradual transformation, during the seventeenth century, of the semi-mOpastic, semi-barbarous Tsardom of Moscovy into the modern Russian State. The emergence of the unlooked-for and unwelcome Empire of the Tsars in the Old World was an event not inferior in importance to the discovery of the unsuspected Continents of the New, and the manner of its advent was even stranger than the advent itself. Like all periods of sudden transition, the century which divides the age of Ivan the Great from the age of Peter the Great has its own peculiar interest, abounding, as it does, in singular contradictions and picturesque contrasts. Throughout this period. East and West, savagery and civilisation strive incessantly for the mastery, and sinister and colossal shapes> fit representatives of wildly contending, elemental forces, flit phantasmagorically across the dirty ways; of the twilight scene.

  • 1 Negotiating Shīʿī Identity and Orthodoxy Through Canonizing
    Negotiating Shīʿī Identity and Orthodoxy through Canonizing Ideologies about Women in Twelver Shīʿī Aḥādīth on Pre-Islamic Sacred History in the Qurʾān Submitted by Amina Inloes to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Arab and Islamic Studies, August 2015. This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. Signature: …………………………………………………………………… 1 Abstract Shīʿī aḥādīth, particularly on women, are an immensely understudied area. Studies on Shīʿī aḥādīth on women usually centre on Fāṭimah al-Zahrāʾ, and little research explores pre-Islamic sacred female figures in Shīʿī aḥādīth. At the same time, there an urgent interest in Shīʿism as well as women in Islam, and a desire for new methods to be applied as well as new questions to be asked. This thesis will analyse Shīʿī aḥādīth about women in pre-Islamic sacred history who appear in the Qurʾān (focusing on Eve, Sārah, Hājar, Zulaykhā, Bilqīs, and the Virgin Mary), and apply the methodologies of ideological criticism and feminist hermeneutics (to be explained in Chapter 1) to explore the subtexts about the essential nature and role of women communicated through these narrations. In addition to exploring the roots of these ideas, it will compare them against the contemporary Shīʿī ideology of gender referred to as the ‘separate-but-equal’ ideology to explore how well this ideology corresponds to Shīʿī narrations.

This thesis offers close textual analysis of a number of scenes from selected works of German narrative literature, scenes which depict family occasions- engagements, weddings, baptisms, funerals, for example. At such moments the family is concerned to make public declaration of certain articles of dynastic and religious faith. The familial will to self-symbolisation is echoed by the powerful metaphorical charge that informs the narrative expression of such moments in the text. The chapters of specific textual analysis are arranged chronologically: the period covered extends from the mid-nineteenth century to the present.
