Abstrakt

The article presents Nadezhda Ivanovna Golitsyna’s (1796—1868) memories of the Polish November Uprising. Golitsyna was a wife of a count Alexander Fyodorovitch Golitsyn
(1796—1864), who was a high‑ranking Tsarist official. They lived in Warsaw, where the husband of the author of the Memoirs worked in the office of the Grand Prince Konstantin. Golitsyn was, most probably, a secret agent of the Third Division. After the outbreak of the November Uprising the Golitsynys, together with prince Konstantin’s troops, left Warsaw. The Poles’ struggle for independence is presented in Golitsyna’s Memoirs as a sudden and unexpected rebellion organised by a group of students against the Russian ruler. Golitsyna criticises the participants of the uprising, and describes their actions as imprudent and reckless. In her opinion, the November Uprising is mainly associated with necessity of marching off from the capital of the Kingdom of Poland, with difficult living conditions, suffering, arrests, and death of the loved ones. Golitsyna shared the views expressed by the Russian courtly circles of the time.
