This illuminating volume provides a new understanding of the subjective identity and public roles of Russia's Europeanized elite between the years of 1762 and 1825. Through a series of rich case studies, the editors reconstruct the social group's worldview, complex identities, conflicting loyalties, and evolving habits. The studies explore the institutions that shaped these nobles, their attitude to state service, the changing patterns of their family life, their emotional world, religious beliefs, and sense of time.The creation of a Europeanized elite in Russia was a state-initiated project that aimed to overcome the presumed "backwardness" of the country. The evolution of this social group in its relations to political authority provides insight into the fraught identity of a country developing on the geopolitical periphery of Europe. In contrast to postcolonial studies that explore the imposition of political, social, and cultural structures on colonized societies, this multidisciplinary volume explores the patterns of behavior and emotion that emerge from the processes of self-Europeanization. The Europeanized Elite in Russia, 1762–1825, will appeal to scholars and general readers interested in Russian history and culture, particularly in light of current political debates about globalization and widening social inequality in Europe.

Das Buch nimmt die (Re)Produktion der historischen Zeit in der kommerziellen Presse in den Blick - ein Medium, das von der Kategorie Zeit entscheidend geprägt wird. Die Analyse arbeitet Zeit als zentrale Ressource für die Verhandlung der Zugehörigkeit zur Moderne heraus Die polnischsprachige Gesellschaft der Teilungsgebiete bietet in dieser Hinsicht ein herausragendes Beispiel, das paradigmatisch für viele Gesellschaften in ihrer ,Modernisierungsphase' gelten kann. Die Analyse der polnischsprachigen Zeitschriften zeigt sehr ambivalente Muster einer temporalen Selbstverortung als Nation in Europa, gegenüber den Nachbarn, sowie innerhalb der modernen Narrative von Fortschritt und Revolution. Diese Muster zeugen von den unterschiedlichen Möglichkeiten und Einschränkungen, die das moderne Selbstverständnis von Gesellschaften charakterisieren. Semi-Peripherialität stellt dabei sowohl eine spezifisch-polnische als auch eine in viele andere soziale Konstellationen übertragbare Position des ,Dazwischen-Sein' in der modernen Welt dar. The book analyzes the (re)production of historical time in the commercial press - a medium largely shaped by the category of time. The analysis develops time as a central resource for managing affiliation in modern societies. Given its ambivalent patterns of self-location, Polish-speaking society at the end of the 19th century offers a paradigmatic example of this issue.
