Abstract

In this article, Dunning challenges traditional scholarship concerning the identity and character of Tsar Dmitrii (reigned 1605-06), better known as the “False Dmitrii“—the only tsar ever raised to the Russian throne by means of a military campaign and popular uprisings. Usually dismissed as a frivolous impostor who was despised by his subjects for being a tool of Polish intervention in Russia’s Time of Troubles, Tsar Dmitrii turns out to have been a charismatic, well-educated warrior-prince who was revered by many of his subjects. Furthermore, he truly believed that he was the youngest son of Ivan die Terrible. This article deconstructs the legends and scholarship identifying Tsar Dmitrii as the lascivious and bloodthirsty monk-sorcerer, Grishka Otrep’ev and demonstrates that the faulty image of Tsar Dmitrii has been shaped by historians’ overreliance on folklore and on the propaganda manufactured by Dmitrii’s enemies. Dunning calls for a new biography of this mysterious and controversial ruler.

Much has been made of the Saxon mercenary soldier Conrad Bussow’s alleged conversation with Tsar Dmitrii’s close confidant, Petr Basmanov, who supposedly admitted to him that Tsar Dmitrii was a foreign impostor. See, for example, S. M. Solov’ev, Istoriia Rossii s drevneishikhvremen,15 vols. (Moscow, 1959–66), 4:402; Skrynnikov, Smuta,28; Feme, Pretenders,86. In fact, Basmanov had no reason to commit lese majesty, and it is absurd to credit Bussow’s colorful story.

25 Many contemporaries and most historians studying the Time of Troubles decisively rejected Dmitrii’s enemies’ assertion that he was a foreigner.

See Perrie, Pretenders,52–53. Skrynnikov probably based his claim on a statement made by the commander of Tsar Dmitrii’s bodyguard, Captain Jacques Margeret, that Tsar Boris suspected the Shuiskiis more than the other boyars (Russian Empire,60) and on the connection between the Shuiskiis and the monk Varlaam, which will be discussed below; see Golubtsov, I. A., “Izmena Smol’nian pri Borise Godunove i ‘izvet’ Varlaama,” Uchenyezapiski Instituta istoriiRANION5(1928): 248.Google Scholar A. P. Pavlov also argued against the Romanov connection to the pretender scheme, basing his unconvincing conclusion on an unwarranted acceptance of the Romanovs’ later claims to have opposed the pretender and on the softening of the terms of exile of some family members toward the end of Tsar Boris’s reign.
