内容简介:
Advance praise for The Memoirs of Catherine the Great
“Superb. The translation of the Memoirs is fluid, accessible, and
idiomatic, while remaining accurate and as delightful as the
original. Students will heartily enjoy this excursion into the
historical and literary world of the great empress.”
–Cynthia Hyla Whittaker, professor and chair, Department of
History, Baruch College/CUNY
“Several translations of the memoirs of Catherine the Great have
been published before, but none of them can compare with this
latest edition. Mark Cruse and Hilde Hoogenboom have produced a
masterpiece. Their translation fairly sings, capturing with
stunning virtuosity all the beguiling wit and charm that make these
memoirs one of the most fascinating works ever penned by a European
monarch.”
–Douglas Smith, editor and translator of Love and Conquest:
Personal Correspondence of Catherine the Great and Prince Grigory
Potemkin
“Catherine the Great’s memoirs are a classic and almost unique
record of personality and power, the work of one of history’s
greatest and most alluring leaders but also of a young girl trapped
in a sinister court and a miserable marriage–this new edition is
the best for decades and the one for both general and scholarly
readers to use.”
–Simon Sebag Montefiore, author of Potemkin: Catherine the
Great’s Imperial Partner and Stalin: The Court of the Red
Tsar
“A richly textured account of the turbulent years the young Grand
Duchess spent at the court of the Empress Elizabeth. No serious
student of Catherine’s life and reign will want to be without this
splendid new edition. It casts a completely new light on the
composition of the Empress’s extraordinary memoirs.”
–Professor Simon M. Dixon, chairman, School of History,
University of Leeds
“Catherine’s memoirs are one of the most fascinating documents of
the eighteenth century. This translation will give the
English-speaking audience a unique chance to learn about the life
of this extraordinary woman from her own story.”
–Professor Alexandr Kamenskii, chair, Early and Early Modern
Russian History, The Russian State University for the
Humanities
“This fluent and unabridged translation of one of the most
remarkable documents of eighteenth-century history, based on the
original French manu* of the text that Catherine revised in
1794, is preceded by a substantial scholarly preface tracing the
fascinating story of the memoirs’ composition, sources, literary
style, and fate after Catherine’s death. Researchers, teachers, and
general readers alike will welcome this book.”
–Lindsey Hughes, University College London

书籍介绍
Empress Catherine II brought Europe to Russia, and Russia to Europe, during her long and eventful reign (1762—96). She fostered the culture of the Enlightenment and greatly expanded the immense empire created by Czar Ivan the Terrible, shifting the balance of power in Europe eastward. Famous for her will to power and for her dozen lovers, Catherine was also a prolific and gifted writer.
Fluent in French, Russian, and German, Catherine published political theory, journalism, comedies, operas, and history, while writing thousands of letters as she corresponded with Voltaire and other public figures. The Memoirs of Catherine the Great provides an unparalleled window into eighteenth-century Russia and the mind of an absolute ruler.
With insight, humor, and candor, Catherine presents her eyewitness account of history, from her whirlwind entry into the Russian court in 1744 at age fourteen as the intended bride of Empress Elizabeth I’s nephew, the eccentric drunkard and future Peter III, to her unhappy marriage; from her two children, several miscarriages, and her and Peter’s numerous affairs to the political maneuvering that enabled Catherine to seize the throne from him in 1762. Catherine’s eye for telling details makes for compelling reading as she describes the dramatic fall and rise of her political fortunes.
This definitive new translation from the French is scrupulously faithful to her words and is the first for which translators have consulted original manuscripts written in Catherine’s own hand. It is an indispensable work for anyone interested in Catherine the Great, Russian history, or the eighteenth century.
