Pretenders and Popular Monarchism in Early Modern Russia: The False Tsars of the Time and Troubles
Perrie, Maureen (University of Birmingham)
This is the first scholarly account by a western historian of the Time of Troubles, the period of civil war and foreign invasion in early seventeenth-century Russia. Maureen Perrie looks at the wave of pretenders and royal impostors that swept Russia, and shows how such figures could be the vehicle for profound social protest.
