Abstract

The article discusses the influence of the Crimean War on the views of the British liberal public about the history of Russia. The sources used are published in the liberal quarterlies “The Edinburgh Review” and “The Westminster Review” historical book reviews. The review materials show how the British represented the historical process in Russia, in what things they saw the roots of the Russian autocracy saw, and how the autocracy was consistently criticized in articles on history. Within the framework of the interpretation of Russia’s past during the Crimean War, the path that the latter has followed in the last thousand years was perceived as a continuous movement towards an increasingly despotic government. Showing that despotism has no prospects, the reviewers passed over in silence the progressive reforms of the Russian tsars.
