metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: The paper aims to provide insight into the content of the diplomatic documents from the “Persian”
  fund of the Russian State Archive of Ancient Acts, which reveals the role of the Crimean
  prince Şahin Geray in relations between Safavid Iran and the Russian Tsardom at the turn of
  the 1620s and 1630s. A detailed source examination is given to a group of nineteen texts dated
  by 1630. This set consists of letters in Turki and Farsi as well as their Russian translations
  and a preface by the administrators of Astrakhan. The addressees of correspondence were
  Astrakhan and Terek voivodes and the governor of the non-Russian population of the Terky
  Sholokh Cherkassky. The senders were Shah Safi I, Şahin Geray, beglerbeg of Shirvan Qazaq
  Khan and shamkhal of Tarki Ildar. The materials analyzed reflect the attempts of the aforementioned
  political emigrant, with the support of the Shahs Abbas the Great and then Safi I,
  to obtain diplomatic and military assistance from Moscow and the local Russian authorities
  of the Ciscaucasia in reconquering the Crimea. The authors reveal the details of the plan of
  Şahin Geray and the reasons for the Russian negative stance on any combinations involving
  the former Crimean qalga. The scholars conclude that Shah’s supportof the political figure
  unacceptable for the Romanov monarchy became one of the significant factors holding back
  the development of Russian-Persian relations in the period under review. In the appendix,
  there is a Turki text of the firman by Safi I to voivodes, as well as its contemporary and recent
  translations into Russian.
