The start of the colonial conquest of new territories coincided with the invention of the art of printing: Columbus reached America in 1492 and Gutenberg had invented the printing press in the 1440s. The art of printing made the written word accessible to wide audiences, and it also meant an explosion in the spread of images on a global level. The discovery of new continents had turned the understanding of the world as it had hitherto existed upside down. So the public was particularly interested in images depicting unknown lands and their exotic inhabitants. The images not only reflected and described the course of conquests and novel territories and their peoples, but also actively participated in conceptualising these and creating stereotypes of the “Other”, thus contributing to the belief in a radical difference between primitive natives and civilised Europeans. An emphasis on We thank: Lisa Reihana, James Pinker, Eidotech, Liina Siib, Estonian History Museum, Estonian National Museum, Pärnu Museum, Tallinn City Museum, Academic Library of cultural differences helped to justify both the conquests Tallinn University, University of Tartu Museum, University of Tartu Library and Valga and the domination of Europeans over native populations.

  • The Role of the Baltic Knighthoods1 to 1920
    The Role of the Baltic Knighthoods1 to 1920 Keynote address by Ernst Dietrich Baron von Mirbach on the occasion of a Members’ Retreat organised by the Association of Baltic Knighthoods (Verband der Baltischen Ritterschaften) at Höhnscheid in 2016 If we make “Politics and Responsibility” our theme at this Retreat for Knighthood Members and the roles and functions of our Baltic Knighthoods up to and including 1920 are to be our context, then we must begin by establishing what we mean when we talk about politics. No question, politics has many facets. We usually think of politics as the mechanism we use in communities to arrive at decisions that bind all its members. But, as Arnold Bergstraesser tells us, politics is also “the art of leading groups of people towards well-ordered outcomes”. We could then say we use politics to give shape and direction to the goals we set and the outcomes we want, both in the public and in the private spheres. Possibly the pithiest description of politics in current literature is Thilo Sarrazin’s formulation in his 2016 book, “Wishful Thinking”. He sees: “politics as the rules we follow to get along with one another within a framework of society and state, once we have moved past the good manners and the etiquette we usually reserve for our one-on-one relationships.” Beyond that, politics also serves as a vehicle for addressing our immediate environment and how to shape it. At a gathering for our Knighthood Youth in Riederau as far back as 1960, Hans Joachim Schoeps put it this way: “not only must you have command of your subJect matter, you must also be able to lead people.” Our four Baltic Knighthoods2 would have seen their role and function over the span of many centuries in much the same way.

    Przegląd Sejmowy nr 1(150)/2019, s. 85–109; https://doi.org/10.31268/PS.2019.06 MAGNUS ILMJÄRV * OD MAAPÄEV DO RIIGIKOGU. PROCES TWORZENIA ESTOŃSKIEGO PARLAMENTARYZMU PO I WOJNIE ŚWIATOWEJ FROM MAAPÄEV TO RIIGIKOGU. THE PROCESS OF FORMING ESTONIAN PARLIAMENTARISM AFTER THE FIRST WORLD WAR The actions of the Russian Provisional Government which came to power in February 1917 were in general supported by the Estonian nationalists. The Committee of the Estonian Knighthood stated in the name of the Estonian Baltic nobles and local governments that it supported the actions of the Provisional Government and called all classes to follow its instructions and or- ders. After the February revolution the Estonian national movement urged the reform of local self-governments and the uniting of the Governorate of Livonia counties inhabited by Estonians with the Governorate of Estonia. This was achieved. In October of 1917, after the Bolsheviks came to power in Petrograd, representatives of Estonian bourgeois circles raised the call for in- dependence. This resulted primarily from the Bolsheviks’ approach to property rights. Estonian Bolsheviks, however, believed that the future of the Governorate of Estonia could only be bound to Soviet Russia . For the Baltic Germans, the 1917 Russian revolutions and the resultant seeking of autonomy by the Estonians and Latvians was a threat to their elitist position and the class system. Therefore, they welcomed the German occupation and strove for Estonia’s union with Germany or for the creation of a dukedom allied with Germany . The plan for a dukedom did not materialize. The German occupation of Estonia brought with it, on the one hand, the destruction of Bolshevik power, and on the other hand, the genesis of Estonian national unity and the feeling of belonging together.
