"Catalogue from the exhibition 'Nicholas And Alexandra" at the Hermitage Amsterdam from 18 September 2004 to 13 February 2005." art history. russian history. biography. ~ Nicholas II and Alexandra have gone down in history as the last royal couple of Russia. With them the Romanov dynasty, that had ruled the country for three hundred years, came to an end. Rarely has a personal narrative been so interwoven with the destiny of a nation. The love of Nicholas (1868~1918) for his wife Alexandra (1872~1918) and their five children Olga, Tatiana, Maria, Anastasia and the Tsarevich Alexei, distracted his attention from his tasks as ruler, After a turbulent reign he was finally forced to abdicate and was transported with his family to Ekterinenburg. Half a year later, in 1918, the Bolsheviks murdered him and his family. The Romanovs had become the symbol of the old regime in Russia. In this publication curators of the State Museum the Hermitage in St Petersburg review the life of Nicholas and Alexandra, including their marriage, the coronation, their court and the misfortunes of Tsarevich Alexei. A picture is also given of political conditions in Russia during the reign of the last Romanovs. …

Soft cover. Condition: New. 390pp. The rivalry between the Dutch and Portuguese in Asia is one of the classic themes of the early history of European expansion overseas. Yet it is often forgotten that until the end of the sixteenth century the seafarers and traders of Portugal and The Netherlands were the best of friends and close trading partners in Europe. This collection of essays seeks to explain the abrupt change in the relationship by analyzing the European interaction with the maritime world of Monsoon Asia. Portuguese as well as Dutch interests, political, commercial and personal, became closely interwoven with those of the indigenous rulers, merchants and financiers. The final outcome of the conflict in Asia was mainly determined by the different ways in which both parties were able to cope with the intricacies of Asian politics. European Expansion in the Indian Ocean was far from a one-sided affair and its history can only be understood in terms of the interaction of both Europeans and Asians involved.…

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 313 pp., illustrations maps, bibliography, index. In English with Dutch summary. includes errata sheet. Decay or Defeat? presents new answers to the question who or what caused the Portuguese decline in Asia. In the process, the author explores many of the myths that exist around the subject. The vicissitudes of the Portuguese shipping route to India are discussed against the background of the military and financial adventures of the Spanish Habsburg monarchs, who during the 1580-1640 period also ruled Portugal. During the Habsburg intermezzo the New Christian merchants in Lisbon played an important role in financing the Carreira da India and the Spanish troops in Flanders. The withdrawal of their financial support in 1628 had serious consequences for Lisbon. During the 1620s and 1630s political shifts in Asia damaged the existing alliances of the Portuguese, but worked in favour of the English and Dutch newcomers in Asia. The analysis of the Vereenigde Oostindische Compagnie as a commercial and privateering enterprise and a war machine shows why. The inquiry ends with the collapse of the Portuguese presence in Asia, which began with the restoration of Portuguese independence and the fall of Malacca in 1641. 0.0.…
