"[A] superb biography….Scholarly, refreshing, commonsensical, and compelling, vividly portraying the charismatic Empress and her times."—Simon Sebag Montefiore, author of SashenkaSimon Dixon''s Catherine the Great is a complete and revealing portrait of an extraordinary leader, chronicling her rise to power and her remarkable reign as empress of Russia.

- Del 15 - New Approaches to European History
The Modernisation of Russia, 1676-1825
Inbunden, Engelska, 1999946 kr
Skickas inom 7-10 vardagar
This is the first book to place Russia's 'long' eighteenth century squarely in its European context. The conceptual framework is set out in an opening critique of modernisation which, while rejecting its linear implications, maintains its focus on the relationship between government, economy and society. Following a chronological introduction, a series of thematic chapters (covering topics such as finance and taxation, society, government and politics, culture, ideology, and economy) emphasise the ways in which Russia's international ambitions as an emerging great power provoked administrative and fiscal reforms with wide-ranging (and often unanticipated) social consequences. This thematic analysis allows Simon Dixon to demonstrate that the more the tsars tried to modernise their state, the more backward their empire became. A chronology and critical bibliography are also provided to allow students to discover more about this colourful period of Russian history. - Del 15 - New Approaches to European History

Catherine rose to rule the Russian empire for 30 years. This study explores what she did with her power and how much of it she commanded. The work analyzes the interaction of the nobility and bureaucracy in 18th- century Russia and the nature of authority in Europe of "Enlightened Absolutism". - Häftad, Engelska, 2013

Neither a comprehensive 'life and times' nor a conventional biography, this is an engaging and accessible exploration of rulership and monarchial authority in eighteenth century Russia. Its purpose is to see how Catherine II of Russia conceived of her power and how it was represented to her subjects. Simon Dixon asks essential questions about Catherin'es life and reign, and offers new and stimulating arguments about the Englightenment, the power of the monarch in early modern Europe, and the much-debated role of the "great individual" in history. - E-bokEngelska, 2015
