title: ‘RUSSOPHOBIA’ AND RELATED CONCEPTS IN GERMANY IN THE 19 TH CENTURY
abstract: The concept of ‘Russophobia’ was introduced by British radicals in 1836. In Germany 1830-1840 s, the ‘Russophobia’ debate took on a much clearer ideological connotation than it was in England. The dividing line was between democrats and national liberals, on the one hand, and conservatives, on the other; and the image of Russia was very different for both. The following words were used as synonyms for ‘Russophobia’: RussenhaB (hatred of Russians), Russen-Scheu and Russenfurcht (fear of Russians)
