Title A name given to the resource Architect of the "Eastern Cabinet" Description An account of the resource The "Eastern cabinet" (Восточный кабинет) was the first iteration of the Asiatic Museum - an institution called into existence in 1818 by Count Sergej Semenovich Uvarov. Known best as the architect of the "Official Nationality" policy rolled out during his tenure as Minister of Education (1832-1849), Uvarov lead the St. Petersburg educational district from 1811-1822. In Orientalist circles he made a name for himself even earlier. In 1810, he drafted his "Project for an Asiatic Academy" with its bold pronouncement that “Never before have state interests been in such accord with the highest ideas of spiritual perfection” as they were at that moment in Russia, with its "natural" ties to the Ottoman Empire, Persia, Central Asia, the Caucasus, Mongolia, and even China.

It would help if the noble register entry included his wife's name, which, according to the 1861 list, was Kutlu Sultan.  Ought I to attribute the source of my frustration to relatively benign clerical sloppiness or to the age-old politics of gender?

Title A name given to the resource disappearing women Description An account of the resource Not only are women hard to find in the written record: often, just when you've found one, she slips out of view.

We know this from <a title="read the entry" href="http://dighist.fas.harvard.edu/projects/crimeaproject/items/show/282" target="_self">the noble register entry</a> of 1838. Seven years later she disappears - other deceased or simply left off the "list of confirmed nobles" that includes her husband and son. women Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
