Présentation de l'éditeur
The following pages are translated from M. Gaston Cahen sH istoire des Relations de la Russia avec laC hine sous Pierre leG rand (1689-1730), published in 1912. M. Cahen svolume consists of a concisely written text, fully documented and annotated. This translation is mainly from the text, practically the whole of which is here given, but with the translation of the text have been incorporated supplementary details from M. Cahen snotes; and occasional additional items of interest drawn from the same subsidiary source are here given as footnotes. Whilst the sequence of M. Cahen stext has been maintained, the chapter divisions are not those of the original. A word as to M. Cahen ssources and authorities is no less than his due. Whilst fully availing himself of the generally known authorities, such as Banytch, Du Halde, Staunton, Lang, Bell, deM ailla, Klaproth, A miot and Brand, M. Cahen has taken for his principal authorities and sources the original Russian documents in the Archives of the Russian Ministry ofF oreign A ffairs, and the records of the governments of the cities on the route from Petersburg toP eking. These he has thoroughly searched, and for nearly every statement he makes he is able to quote official documentary authority. The immense amount of patient labour and diligent research involved in M. Cahen sundertaking only those who carefully study his pages can in the least degree understand. W. S. R.
