He appeared as the controversial and mysterious figure who guided the Second Reich through the era of Veltpolitlk. Holstein’s contemporaries, as well as histo­ rians, asserted that his influence was a contributive factor In causing Germany to fight World War I. To ascertain the extent of his influence, on© must consider his actions in a particular instance. The purpose of this study, therefore, is to examine a specific diplomatic incident and, at least in this instance, place in proper perspective Holstein’s in­ fluence on German foreign policy. A significant problem, which permits an examination of his influence, is the attempt at an alliance between Great Britain and Germany in 1901. Germany, since the Bismarckian Era, had always ex­ pressed an interest in concluding an alliance with Great Britain. Her leaders realised that the geographic position of Germany exposed her frontiers to French and Russian at­ tack and that only a British alliance would provide the pro­ tection against possible invasion. The possibility of Ger­ many concluding such an agreement arore during 1901, but the proposal failed to materialize. Failure to conclude an iil alliance supposedly resulted from the actions of none other than Friedrich von Holstein* # # # «• For matters of simplification and clarification the following changes have been carried out through the entire text* In place of umlauted German letters an **eH has been inserted* and all headings on diplomatic exchanges have been limited to the surname of the correspondent* iv A canfOWLEDGEMENTS The author wishes to express his sincere appreciation to Dr* A.

He received a provisional transfer but only as a result of the influence of Count Otto von Bismarck.^3 His first diplomatic appointment followed on December 6 , i860, when he became an attach© in the Prussian Embassy at St. Petersburg.^ At th© time Bismarck was the Prussian Ambas­ sador. Thus began Holstein's thirty year period of associa­ tion with the future German Chancellor. Bismarck reported that Holstein was eager, industrious, intelligent, though awkward in society, and somewhat dominated by prejudice. ^ ^Friedrich von Trotha, Fritz von Holstein als Kenach und Polltiker (Berlin* Verlag RTc'hard Schroed@r,193^)» p.

  • History with an Attitude: Alaska in Modern Russian Patriotic Rhetoric
    Andrei A. Znamenski, Memphis/USA History with an Attitude: Alaska in Modern Russian Patriotic Rhetoric Guys, stop your speculations and read books. One of my re­ cent discoveries is Kremlev. Here is a real history of Russia. One reads his books and wants to beat a head against a wall from the realization of how much we lost due to corruption, treason and the stupidity of our rulers – tsars, general secret­ aries and presidents. What wonderful opportunities we had in the past and how much we have lost!1 A nationalist blogger about the ultra-patriotic popular his­ tory “Russian America: Discovered and Sold” (2005) by Sergei Kremlev In Russian-American relations, Alaska is doomed to remain a literary-political metaphor – some sort of a stylistic figure of speech whose original meaning faded away being re­ placed with an imagined one.2 Writer Vladimir Rokot (2007) On the afternoon of October 18, 1867, a Siberian Line Battalion and a detachment of the US Ninth Infantry faced each other on a central plaza of New Archangel (Figure 1), the capital of Russian America, prepared for the official ceremony of lowering the Russian flag and of raising the Stars and Stripes. This act was to finalize the transfer of Alaska (Figure 2) from Russia to the United States, which bought the territory for $ 7.2 million. At 4 PM, Captain Aleksei Peshchurov gave orders to lower the Russian flag. After this, Brigadier General Lovell Rousseau, a representative of the US Government, ordered the American flag to be raised. Salutes were fired. This ceremony ended a brief seventy-year presence of the Russian Empire in northwestern North America.3 Driven by short-term strategic goals, Russian emperor Alexander II decided to get rid of his overseas posses­ sion, which represented 6 per cent of the Russian Empire territory.

  • Russia's Imperial Encounter with Armenians, 1801-1894
    CLAIMING THE CAUCASUS: RUSSIA’S IMPERIAL ENCOUNTER WITH ARMENIANS, 1801-1894 Stephen B. Riegg A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2016 Approved by: Louise McReynolds Donald J. Raleigh Chad Bryant Cemil Aydin Eren Tasar © 2016 Stephen B. Riegg ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Stephen B. Riegg: Claiming the Caucasus: Russia’s Imperial Encounter with Armenians, 1801-1894 (Under the direction of Louise McReynolds) My dissertation questions the relationship between the Russian empire and the Armenian diaspora that populated Russia’s territorial fringes and navigated the tsarist state’s metropolitan centers. I argue that Russia harnessed the stateless and dispersed Armenian diaspora to build its empire in the Caucasus and beyond. Russia relied on the stature of the two most influential institutions of that diaspora, the merchantry and the clergy, to project diplomatic power from Constantinople to Copenhagen; to benefit economically from the transimperial trade networks of Armenian merchants in Russia, Persia, and Turkey; and to draw political advantage from the Armenian Church’s extensive authority within that nation. Moving away from traditional dichotomies of power and resistance, this dissertation examines how Russia relied on foreign-subject Armenian peasants and elites to colonize the South Caucasus, thereby rendering Armenians both agents and recipients of European imperialism. Religion represented a defining link in the Russo-Armenian encounter and therefore shapes the narrative of my project. Driven by a shared ecumenical identity as adherents of Orthodox Christianity, Armenians embraced Russian patronage in the early nineteenth century to escape social and political marginalization in the Persian and Ottoman empires.
