Thinking with Russia, writing English commonwealth.Exploring Russia in the Elizabethan Commonwealth tells the story of English relations with Russia, from the 'strange and wonderfull discoverie' of the land and Elizabeth I's correspondence with Ivan the Terrible, to the corruption of the Muscovy Company and the Elizabethan regime's censorship of politically sensitive representations of Russia. Focusing on the life and works of Giles Fletcher, the elder, ambassador to Russia in 1588, this work explores two popular themes in Elizabethan history: exploration, travel and trade and late Elizabethan political culture. By analysing the pervasive languages of commonwealth, corruption and tyranny found in both the Muscovy Company accounts and in Fletcher's writings on Russia, this monograph explores how Russia was a useful tool for Elizabethans to think with when they contemplated the nature of government and the changing face of monarchy in the late Elizabethan regime. It will appeal to academics and students of Elizabethan political culture and literary studies, as well as those of early modern travel and trade.Politics, culture, and society in early modern Britain.Diplomatic relationsfast(OCoLC)fst01907412RussiafastGreat BritainfastRussiaHistory1533-1613RussiaForeign relationsGreat BritainGreat BritainForeign relationsRussiaHistory.Christendom.Elizabethan regime.English mercantile contact.Giles Fletcher.Muscovy Company.Russia.ad hoc embassies.anti-popery.censorship.colonization.commonwealth.corruption.diplomacy.diplomatic negotiations.late Elizabethan political culture.political consciences.politically sensitive representations.religious consciences.resonances.trade relations.Diplomatic relations.327.41047Stout Felicity Jane1527518MdBmJHUPMdBmJHUPBOOK9910797611003321Exploring Russia in the Elizabethan commonwealth3770407UNINA01065nam0 22002891i 450 UON0026693220231205103738.54096-16-35877-420050922d2002 |0itac50 baslvSI|||| |||||Entropija v slovenskih leposlovnih besedilichPrimož JakopinLjubljanaZaložba ZRCZRC SAZU2002208 p.24 cm.LINGUA SLOVENAUONC041716FISILubianaUONL002905491.84Lingua slovena21JAKOPINPrimožUONV155299690418Založba ZRCUONV269792650ZRB SAZUUONV270904650ITSOL20240220RICASIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEOUONSIUON00266932SIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEOSI SLOVENO D 0050 SI EO 37377 5 0050 Entropija v slovenskih leposlovnih besedilich1240360UNIOR03017nam 2200601 450 991081868640332120200520144314.00-8144-3420-7(CKB)2550000001275367(EBL)1596432(SSID)ssj0001180617(PQKBManifestationID)11798020(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001180617(PQKBWorkID)11141893(PQKB)10102686(Au-PeEL)EBL1596432(CaPaEBR)ebr10862190(CaONFJC)MIL597383(OCoLC)877768828(CaSebORM)9780814434192(MiAaPQ)EBC1596432(EXLCZ)99255000000127536720140511h20142014 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrManagement /Brian Tracy1st edition[Saranac Lake], New York :AMACOM,2014.©20141 online resource (124 p.)Brian Tracy Success LibraryDescription based upon print version of record.0-8144-3419-3 1-306-66132-3 Includes bibliographical references and index.Cover; Title Page; Copyright Page; Table of Contents; Introduction; 1: The Key Questions for Managerial Effectiveness; 2: Focus on Key Result Areas; 3: Set Standards of Performance; 4: Concentrate your Powers; 5: The Vital Functions of Management; 6: Management by Objectives; 7: Management by Exception; 8: Delegate Effectively; 9: Build Peak Performers; 10: Achieve Managerial Leverage; 11: Hire the Right People; 12: Fire the Incompetents; 13: Hold Effective Meetings; 14: Build Team Spirit; 15: Make Good Decisions; 16: Remove Obstacles to Performance; 17: Become a Role Model18: Brainstorm for Solutions19: Negotiate like a Professional; 20: Communicate with Clarity; 21: Achieve Personal Excellence; Conclusion; Index; About the Author; Free Sample Chapter from the Practical Drucker; About AmacomThe strength of any organization is determined by the quality of its managers.
