| Summary: | The article discusses the struggle of opposition Duma and military leaders against the
palace commandant V. N. Voeikov during the First World War. The hyperbolized
view of the role and influence of the general at court, his inclusion in the list
of «irresponsible influences» became the reason for the declaration of «war» to
the palace commandant by public and military forces. On the basis of the study
of archival materials, sources of personal origin, materials of paperwork, the
article identifies the goals, mechanisms and results of the struggle against Voeikov
as an active member of the «court camarilla». The author comes to the conclusion
about the evolution of forms and methods of combating the tsarist encirclement
in 1914–1917: from attempts to «peacefully» remove or move to another position
to apply radical measures (public and newspaper bullying, baseless charges, arrest) |
