Zusammenfassung: | "The Russian Great Reforms of the 1860s were the last major modernizing effort by the Romanov dynasty. From 1855 to 1861, Grand Duchess Elena, born Princess Charlotte of Württemberg (1807-1873), acted as the spokeswoman for the reform-minded circles of Russian society, bringing before her nephew Emperor Alexander II a group of civic-minded experts who formed the core of the committee that prepared the greatest and most complex of the reforms, the abolition of serfdom in Russia. The Grand Duchess's involvement in these crucial events in Russian history highlight the considerable influence aristocratic women had in Russian society, quite unlike women of the same class and status in Western Europe. A study of the Grand Duchess Elena of Russia offers a new understanding of Russian and international events of the time, the Romanovs' role in them, the degree of autonomy enjoyed by high-born women in Russia and the ways in which new ideas gained ground in the nineteenth-century Russian empire. Based on abundant and largely unused archival sources, published documents and literature of the period in French, Russian, German, Italian and English, this is the first book about Duchess Elena and it expertly interweaves the story of a woman's life with that of Imperial Russian high politics"--Provided by publisher |

From 1855 to 1861, Grand Duchess Elena, born Princess Charlotte of Württemberg (1807-1873), acted as the spokeswoman for the reform-minded circles of Russian society, bringing before her nephew Emperor Alexander II a group of civic-minded experts who formed the core of the committee that prepared the greatest and most complex of the reforms, the abolition of serfdom in Russia. The Grand Duchess's involvement in these crucial events in Russian history highlight the considerable influence aristocratic women had in Russian society, quite unlike women of the same class and status in Western Europe. A study of the Grand Duchess Elena of Russia offers a new understanding of Russian and international events of the time, the Romanovs' role in them, the degree of autonomy enjoyed by high-born women in Russia and the ways in which new ideas gained ground in the nineteenth-century Russian empire. Based on abundant and largely unused archival sources, published documents and literature of the period in French, Russian, German, Italian and English, this is the first book about Duchess Elena and it expertly interweaves the story of a woman's life with that of Imperial Russian high politics"--Provided by publisher Elena Pavlovna / Grand Duchess of Russia / 1807-1873 Romanov, House of / Biography Elena Pavlovna / Grand Duchess of Russia / 1807-1873 fast Romanov, House of fast Helene Russland, Großfürstin 1807-1873 (DE-588)11901663X gnd rswk-swf Romanov Familie (DE-588)118749579 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 1800-1900 Geschichte 1855-1861 gnd rswk-swf Princesses / Russia / Biography Nobility / Russia / Biography Women social reformers / Russia / Biography Women / Political activity / Russia / History / 19th century Serfs / Emancipation / Russia / History / 19th century Political culture / Russia / History / 19th century Nobility fast Political culture fast Political science fast Princesses fast Serfs / Emancipation fast Women / Political activity fast Women social reformers fast Frau Geschichte Politik Politische Wissenschaft Politische Reform (DE-588)4129320-4 gnd rswk-swf Russia / History / Alexander II, 1855-1881 Russia / Politics and government / 1855-1881 Russia fast Russland Russland (DE-588)4076899-5 gnd rswk-swf (DE-588)4006804-3 Biografie gnd-content Helene Russland, Großfürstin 1807-1873 (DE-588)11901663X p DE-604 Russland (DE-588)4076899-5 g Romanov Familie (DE-588)118749579 p Politische Reform (DE-588)4129320-4 s Geschichte 1855-1861 z Ruud, Charles A. 1933- Verfasser (DE-588)1055764143 aut Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe, PDF 9781472464057 Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe, EPUB 9781472464064 https://www.recensio.net/r/2ec5718735fd4a24ad49f6276199a7e1 rezensiert in: Jahrbücher für Geschichte Osteuropas / jgo.e-reviews, JGO 66 (2018), 1, S. 148-150 Rezension Digitalisierung BSB Muenchen 21 - ADAM Catalogue Enrichment application/pdf http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&local_base=BVB01&doc_number=028119405&sequence=000002&line_number=0001&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA Inhaltsverzeichnis |
