Description
Summary:The four documents published for the first time in extenso are dedicated to the memorable events such as the last uprising of Strel’tsy, the two investigations organized by the authorities, and the execution of the culprits. The documents bring some new details about the rebellion, but they prove to be much more interesting from another point of view – that of the setting up of the image of the young tsar in the diplomatic documents of that time. In this sense, Paul Heins’ letters prepare the image of Piter the Great that will be created by the panegyrics of the tsar in the XVIIIth century.
