Golovnin [made] in Japanese Captivity in 1811, 1812 and 1813, and the Biography of the Author]. St. Petersburg: Typ. of N. Grech, 1851. Second edition. Three vols. bound together. V.1: [2], xxxvi, [10], 203; V.2: [2], 148; V.3. [2], 120 pp. Octavo. With a steel engraved frontispiece and two folding engraved maps. Contemporary brown gilt tooled half leather with period paper marbled boards and gilt title on spine. Blank margins of portrait re-margined to fit book, maps with some expert repair including a couple of tears and one blank part of map, a few hints of water staining in text, but overall a very good copy. Important firsthand account on the early history of the Russian-Japanese relations closely connected with the first Russian circumnavigation (1803-1806) under command of Adam von Krusenstern and the activity of the Russian-American Company promoted by Count Nikolai Rezanov (1764-1807). This is a full description of the notorious diplomatic Incident of Golovnin (1811-1813) occurred in the very beginning of the Russian-Japanese relations, written by one of its main participants. Count Nikolai Rezanov took part in the Krusenstern’s circumnavigation with the goal to deliver the first Russian embassy to Japan and to establish the diplomatic relations between the countries. The embassy was unsuccessful, and in 1805 the Emperor of Japan prohibited Russian ships and subjects to approach Japanese shores. Following the instructions of irritated and insulted Rezanov in 1806-1807 two ships of the Russian-American Company - Yunona and Avos’ under command of young navy officers Nikolas Khvostov and Gavriil Davydov sailed to the Japanese possessions on the Southern Sakhalin, the Kuril Islands and Hokkaido, robbed and burned the shore settlements, and captured several Japanese people. Although both Kvostov and Davydov were arrested as soon as they arrived to Okhotsk RUSSIAN AMERICA & PACIFIC VOYAGES 1 and were sent to Saint Petersburg to be trialed, the attitude of Japanese to Russians evidently deteriorated; Russia was considered to prepare for a war with Japan. In 1808-1811 Russian sloop Diana under command of Vasily Golovnin and Peter Ricord was sent on a second official Russian circumnavigation to explore and describe Russian Far East, Kamchatka and Alaska. Upon his return from Russian America in 1811 Golovnin sailed to chart the Kuril Islands. During a short stop at the Kunashir Island Golovnin, his two officers and four sailors were treacherously taken prisoners by Japanese, transported to the Hokkaido Island and were kept in prison near the town of Matsumae for over two years. The book thoroughly and vividly describes the events from Diana’s departure from Kamchatka in April 1811 to the liberation of the captives by Diana and Peter Ricord in Hakodate in October 1813, giving a brief report on the previous history of Russian-Japanese relations and the actions of Khvostov and Davydov. The third part of the “Zapiski” is solely dedicated to Japan – its geographical location, climate, people, language, religion, administration, legal system, trade and industries, army, possessions and colonies. The book is illustrated with a steel engraved portrait of Golovnin and a facsimile of his signature, and two folding engraved maps: “Map of the Sakhalin Sea with the Chain of all Kuril Islands, southern of which have been described in 1811 on the sloop Diana under command of the fleet captain Golovnin,” and “Map of the Treason Bay named so by Captain Rikord after the capture of Captain Golovnin on its shore (the bay is located on the southern part of the Kunashir Island).” This second edition of the book is supplemented with an extensive biography of Golovnin specially written by a Russian journalist and publisher Nikolai Grech (1787-1867). “V.M. Golovnin, one of the outstanding Russian naval officers of the nineteenth century, made several voyages to the North Pacific and to the northwest coast of America. He has left valuable accounts of his voyages and of the investigation of the state of the Russian colonies in America, which he conducted by order of the emperor in 1818” (Lada-Mokarski, #82).

His name under the portrait is adorned with the coat of arms of Lazarev noble family. ‘‘Lazarev first circumnavigated the globe in 1813-1816, aboard the vessel Suvorov; the expedition began at Kronstadt and reached Alaska. During this voyage, Lazarev discovered the Suvorov Atoll. As a commander of the ship Mirny and Fabian Gottlieb von Bellingshausen’s deputy on his world cruise in 1819–1821 (Bellingshausen commanded Vostok), Lazarev took part in the discovery of Antarctica and numerous islands. On January 28, 1820 the expedition discovered the Antarctic mainland, approaching the Antarctic coast at the coordinates 69°21’28’’S 2°14’50’’W / 69.35778°S 2.24722°W / -69.35778; -2.24722 and seeing ice-fields there. In 1822-1825, Lazarev circumnavigated the globe for the third time on his frigate Kreyser, conducting broad research in the fields of meteorology and ethnography’’ (Wikipedia). Later Lazarev took part in the Battle of Navarino (1827, part of the Greek War of Independence, 1821-32); was in charge of the naval units of the Baltic Fleet (1830), and became the Commander of the Black Sea Fleet, the Black Sea ports, and military governor of Sevastopol and Nikolayaev (since 1833).

Why read this Report? … because the Black Sea matters The Black Sea region is coming into its own - but it is a contested and sometimes dangerous neighbourhood. It has undergone countless political transformations over time. And now, once again, it is becoming the subject of an intense debate. This reflects the changing dynamics of the Black Sea countries and the complex realities of their politics and conflicts, economies and societies. Geography, the interests of others and the region’s relations with the rest of the world in large part explain its resurgence. Straddling Europe and Asia, the Black Sea links north to south and east to west. Oil, gas, transport and trade routes are all crucial in explaining its increasing relevance. In the last two decades the Black Sea has changed beyond recognition. We have witnessed the transformation of the former communist societies and the impact of globalisation.

Scope Note Following the publication in 2008 of the National Intelligence Assessment on the National Security Implications of Global Climate Change to 2030, the National Intelligence Council (NIC) embarked on a research effort to explore in greater detail the national security implications of climate change in six countries/regions of the world: India, China, Russia, North Africa, Mexico and the Caribbean, and Southeast Asia and the Pacific Island States. For each country/region we have adopted a three-phase approach. • In the first phase, contracted research explores the latest scientific findings on the impact of climate change in the specific region/country. For Russia, the Phase I effort was published as a NIC Special Report: Russia: Impact of Climate Change to 2030, A Commissioned Research Report (NIC 2009-04, April 2009). • In the second phase, a workshop or conference composed of experts from outside the Intelligence Community (IC) determines if anticipated changes from the effects of climate change will force inter- and intra-state migrations, cause economic hardship, or result in increased social tensions or state instability within the country/region.

One direction of activities is promoting the safe operation of more than 100 large dams, most of which are situated on transboundary rivers. Many of these dams were built 40 to 50 years ago, and due to limited resources for their maintenance and the inadequacy of a legal framework for their safe operation, the risk of accidents is increasing.
