Mixed Marriages at the Court of Early Modern Russia
Journal for Eighteenth-Century Studies. 2022. P. ---.
Those who try to summarize the impact of Great Tsar Peter's reforms in one sentence, should certainly mention the reform of the army, the founding of the navy, the establishment of the Senate, the Synode, and the Table of Ranks, and so on, but should not omit the creation of a new “mixed” public space, where “purity” rules no longer prevented Orthodox and non-Orthodox to socialize in a free and unconstrained way. German dress code, construction of St. Petersburg, recognition of Protestant baptism and celebration of mixed marriages were equally important parts of this complex project.

Analysis of the commissions’ documents (minutes, projects, staff attestations, etc.) allows one to assert ...

The money stock of Russia in the age of Peter I’s reform had a significant “dark matter” component. That is to say, large sums were hoarded or traded on a black or grey market. Such operations left no trace in official documents and are therefore invisible to historians. The article attempts, firstly, to elucidate some of ...

Radical “Westernizing” transformations in extra-European countries, from Peter I’s Russia to Meiji Japan, are traditionally presented as a response to threats from the more militarily and technologically advanced European powers. This corresponds to the general tendency to view war as the driving force behind early modern state-building. Yet, how exactly did such transformations become possible? ...
