title: German Colonists from Bessarabia in Russian Historical Literature of the 19th – Early 20th Centuries
abstract: The article analyses the Russian historiographical heritage of German settlers in Bessarabia in the 19 th century and the first decades of the 20 th century, the least researched period in Russian history. The historical Bessarabia territory is currently part of the Republic of Moldova and Ukraine. Despite using the same documents, the studies on the Germans of Bessarabia reach different conclusions because they depended on the political conjuncture in which the papers were written.
