Reto Peter Speck, January 2010 Reto Peter Speck, February 2010 PhD (History), Queen Mary University of London The History and Politics of Civilisation: The Debate about Russia in French and German Historical Scholarship from Voltaire to Herder 1 Abstract During the second half of the 18th century, a debate about Russia developed in France and Germany. Spurred on by a preoccupation with Peter I’s project to swiftly civilise his country through Europeanisation, and by the evolving idea of a philosophic history with its concern to explain the historical process of civilisation in general, and Europe’s historical journey out of a state of barbarism in particular, an array of thinkers turned to the example of Russia with a set of interrelated historiographical and political questions: Does Russia share a history with Europe, and if so, how can its particular history be related to generalised accounts of the development of civilisation? What was the role of Peter I in fostering civilisation in Russia, and what political lessons can be learned from his reign? Can the historical process of civilisation be accelerated through willed, top- down reform and through wholesale importation of ideas and models from without as Peter attempted, or are there unsurpassable limits to such a project? The present thesis reconstructs this central Enlightenment debate, which has so far only received scant attention in modern scholarship, by providing an in-depth analysis of the relevant works of its main participants: Voltaire, Denis Diderot, Pierre Charles Levesque, August Ludwig Schlözer and Johann Gottfried Herder. By contextualising their Russian writings in terms of wider Enlightenment discourse on philosophic history and political reform, it seeks to recover the rich and conflicting nature of the debate about Russia. In this way, it ultimately contributes to the revision of the customary portrayal of the Enlightenment as a unified ‘project’ based on a universalising and rationalistic approach to the human sciences, and marked by a concomitant inability either to appreciate the complexities of historical development or to conceive of a reforming politics outside the framework of enlightened despotism. 2 Table of Contents Acknowledgements ................................................................................................. 4 Introduction ............................................................................................................. 5 1.

First and foremost, I would like to express my gratitude to Dr Richard Bourke (Queen Mary). I could not have wished for a more inspiring, responsive and generous supervisor. Without his unwavering guidance and counsel this thesis would never have been written. Dr Georgios Varouxakis (Queen Mary) has mentored me throughout my PhD. His suggestions and advice have helped me greatly to improve my work. Professor Jeremy Jennings (Queen Mary) and Dr John Hope Mason have kindly read parts of this thesis, and I have been fortunate to be able to draw continuously on their expertise in French political thought. I have also been able to discuss aspects of my work with Professor Colin Jones (Queen Mary), Dr Maurizio Isabella (Queen Mary), Dr Michael Schippan (Herzog August Bibliothek) and Dr Gillian Bepler (Herzog August Bibliothek). My warmest thanks goes to all of them. Jeremy Jennings, Professor John Iverson (Whitman College) and Professor Robert Makin (University Paris-Diderot) have provided me with opportunities to present parts of my work to discerning audiences for which I am very grateful. My studies were made possible by a three-year studentship awarded by Queen Mary. A fellowship of the Dr Günther Findel-Stiftung allowed me to spend three months at the Herzog August Bibliothek, Wolfenbüttel. Generous travel grants awarded by the Newberry Library Consortium and Queen Mary’s Stretton Fund have enabled me to participate at conferences overseas. Last, but by no means least, I would like to thank my parents Mariette and Arthur, my baby son Thomas, and, especially, my partner Amy Sheehan. 4 Introduction During the 18th century, Russia became an increasingly important topic in European scholarly discourse.1 Even though knowledge about Russia was available in Europe since the early medieval period and a certain exchange of information flowed between the two uninterruptedly throughout the ages, it is nevertheless the case that a quantitative change occurred around 1700 that developed into a qualitative change by around the middle of the century. This first, quantitative, change manifested itself primarily in increased direct contact through travellers, diplomats and merchants, leading in turn to a significant rise in European publications dealing with Russian affairs.2 The second, qualitative, change points to a radical shift in interest: whilst previously Russia had been predominantly a subject of travel accounts offering their readers an ever increasing mass of more or less factual information about its geography, culture, society, history, politics and economy that usually stressed the country's backwardness

Toward the end of 1949, Raymond and Poulet embarked on a long correspondence reporting on and discussing their respective work. Form and Signification in Motion In 1950, the three names René Wellek (1992) associated with "The Geneva School" were Raymond (1897-1981), Béguin (1901-1957), and Poulet (1902-1991). Olivier Pot Later, two of Raymond's students, Jean Rousset (1910-2002) and Jean translated by Helena Taylor Starobinski (1920) joined this initial circle. Poulet, who from 1952 had taken up a post at Johns Hopkins University in Bàltimore, introduced Starobinski to the circle in 1954, and in the same year he became acquainted with Jean Rousset's thesis (Rousset 1953). Historians sometimes also add Poulet's doctoral student, Jean-Pierre Richard (1922; Richard 2002, 47-48) to this "The Geneva School" was the term used from the 1950s and 1960s to group. The term "Nouvelle critique"' appears for the first time in Poulet's describe a group of literary cri tics who belonged to the movement known in preface to Richard's book, Littérature et sensation published in 1954. In France as the Nouvelle Critique, following the confrontation between Picard 1956, Poulet accepted a chair in literature at Zurich University, probably and Barthes over Sur Racine in 1963.

L'École de Genève est une invention de Georges Poulet. Dans les années trente, De Baudelaire au Surréalisme et L'Âme roman­ tique et le rêve 1 avaient été pour lui des phares. Il allait plus tard, par des relations personnelles et tout un réseau de correspondance, par des articles et des colloques, réunir, bon gré mal gré, une communauté de critiques autour du principe d'identification. Le critique établit avec l'œuvre une relation de sympathie, qui lui permet d'en dégager les enjeux existentiels : telle devait être, selon Poulet, le programme de l'École de Genève, qui réunirait, outre Marcel Raymond, Pierre Béguin et lui-même, Jean Rousset, Jean Starobinski et Jean-Pierre Richard. Mais Poulet ne voyait pas qu~ son initiative reposait sur un paradoxe. Car si une École suppose une méthode ou une doctrine commune, alors l'École de Genève est une aporie. Comment concilier en effet l'exigence d'engagement personnel, la part, considérable, de la subjectivité dans 1' acte critique et une quelconque allégeance à un système ? Le principe que Poulet plaçait au cœur de son École postule une totale disponibilité de l'esprit, une recherche sans contrainte, donc la liberté.
