PERIODICAL PRESS OF TSARIST RUSSIA – PROPAGANDIST OF THE COLONIAL POLICY OF THE KAZAKH LAND
Abstract
The first governor-general of the Turkestan Territory, Konstantin Petrovich Kaufman (1818-1882), in 1868 ordered the collection and systematization of all printed materials about Turkestan and neighboring countries. Before the unification of Kazakhstan and Turkestan to Russia, there was no purposeful study of these huge national outskirts of tsarist Russia, not to mention the systematization and analysis of the available diverse literature about them.
Execution of his aforementioned order by K.P. Kaufman commissioned one of the famous Russian bibliographers, Vladimir Izmailovich Mezhov (1831-1894). This was the beginning of the compilation of a unique multivolume work – «Turkestan collection of essays and articles relating to Central Asia in general and the Turkestan region in particular» (abbreviated – «Turkestan collection»).
The total number of "Turkestan Collection" is 591 volumes. Today this work is of great scientific interest for those who are studying the past of Kazakhstan and Central Asia.
