If I had not taken her AP class, my life probably would have gone in a different direction! At that time math was my favorite subject, but her class got me hooked on studying American History. Thanks, too, to the excellent teachers and mentors in graduate school who shaped and challenged my thinking. At American University (where I earned my M.A.), I’d like to thank Max Friedman, Andrew Lewis, Kate Haulman, and Eileen Findlay. I transferred to UCSB to finish my Ph.D. and have thoroughly enjoyed working with Pat Cohen, John Majewski, Salim Yaqub, and Mhoze Chikowero. I’d especially like to thank Pat, who provided insightful feedback on early drafts of my chapter about the Mellimelli mission (which has been published in Diplomatic History). Additionally, I’d like to thank UCSB’s History, Writing, and English Departments for providing Teaching Assistantships and the staffs of the Historical Society of Pennsylvania, the Library of Congress Manuscript Reading Room, and the Huntington Library for their help and friendliness. -

The Last U.S. Consul in Reval: Eugene Schuyler, Early American Slavophile
The Last U.S. Consul in Reval: Eugene Schuyler, Early American Slavophile Eugene Schuyler Among early U.S. diplomats, Eugene Schuyler was a multi-faceted star. Born in Ithaca, New York on February 26, 1840, Schuyler began his studies at Yale University at the age fifteen, graduating in 1859 near the top of his class. In 1861, he became one of the first three graduate students to earn a Ph.D. from an American university – Yale – before going on to help Noah Porter revise Webster's Dictionary. Next, Schuyler decided to study law, graduating from Columbia Law School in 1863. While practicing law in New York City, he befriended several Russian Navy officers in September 1863 and decided to learn Russian. His first teacher appears to have been a Russian Orthodox priest. In 1865, Schuyler became a staff member and active contributor to The Nation, which would become one of America's leading liberal magazines. After his acceptance into the U.S. Consular Service in 1866, Schuyler received his first assignment as the U.S. Consul to Moscow thanks to his knowledge of Russian. While waiting to go to Russia, Schuyler also developed an interest in Finnish after he was asked to edit the first U.S. edition of Finland's national epic – the Kalevala (1867) – translated by John Porter. On his way to Russia to take up his new duties effective August 1867, Schuyler met with Ivan Turgenev at Baden-Baden in Germany and received a letters of introduction to various Russian literary figures including Count Leo Tolstoy. In addition to his exemplary work as a U.S. -

Eugene Schuyler and the Bulgarian Constitution of 1876
Eugene Schuyler and the Bulgarian Constitution of 1876 Patricia Herlihy “I am fearfully busy. Just now I am getting up a Constitution for Bulgaria.” Ô#QCAJA1?DQUHANPK#RAHUJ1?DQUHAN1?D=AɳAN ,KRAI>AN.)1 Schuyler and His Mission to Bulgaria Nation building has become a subject of international interest and do- mestic debate in the United States.2 Unintentionally, the United States was involved in the mapping and constructing of Bulgaria in the 1870s through the activities of a minor American diplomat, Eugene Schuyler. The American Government did not initiate Schuyler’s participation in the making of the Bulgarian Constitution and in the end disciplined him for his unauthorized actions.3 Nonetheless, Schuyler can be credited in large measure for the emergence of an autonomous Bulgaria and for the shape it ultimately assumed.
