                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This set of playing cards is held at the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. It was digitized as part of the RNL's collaboration with the Library of Congress. The phenomenal result of their collaboration was the "&lt;a href="http://international.loc.gov/intldl/mtfhtml/mfdigcol/nlrmp.html#d_eng" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Meeting of Frontiers&lt;/a&gt;" project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The full name of the set is: &lt;em&gt;Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin&lt;/em&gt;. An earlier version was produced in the 1820s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is how the playing cards are described by the Meeting of Frontiers project:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"This souvenir set of eighty-two illustrated cards–one for each province of the Russian empire--presents an overview of each region’s culture, history, economy, and geography in the second half of the nineteenth century. The front of each card depicts the distinguishing features of that region, such as rivers, mountains, major cities, and chief industries. The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;For this assignment we will be working with a 4 volume account of the multiethnic population of the Russian Empire published in 1776-1780 (&lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/013186164/catalog%20"&gt;in German&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/008847042/catalog%20"&gt;in French&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/006845685/catalog"&gt;in Russian&lt;/a&gt;, and in English 1780-1783) by Johann Gottlieb Georgi. &lt;/span&gt;The full text is available via HOLLIS (you must be logged in). &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/012479846/catalog"&gt;Click here to go to the HOLLIS record&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In class you will select an ethnic group described by Georgi and represented in the collection of images digitized by the New York Public Library. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your first task is to read the relevant portion of Georgi's text, study the image, and create a bibliography of historical sources one might use to research the ethnic group you have selected.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Add each source (primary or secondary) to the Zotero Library.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Be sure that all appropriate metadata fields are filled in.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "YourFirstNameAndLastInitial".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "ethnographic sketches".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source one of the following tags: "accessible in digital format only" "accessible in print format only" or "accessible in digital and print formats".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Add a brief note (in the "Notes" column) indicating the contents or suggesting the use to which a researcher might put each source. Note that in order to do this, you will need to have at least skimmed the source. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Target number of sources: 4&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your second task is to compose an essay that answers (in no particular order) the following questions about the ethnic group you have researched:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Who were they? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where were they?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What role did they play in tsarist history? (Our focus here is on the 18th century.)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where did they fit in Georgi's classification scheme?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What do we learn from the image itself?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Refer to the guidelines for written work on the syllabus. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Essay length: 1,500 words.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Upload to Canvas and post on Omeka.&lt;/p&gt;</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This set of playing cards is held at the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. It was digitized as part of the RNL's collaboration with the Library of Congress. The phenomenal result of their collaboration was the "&lt;a href="http://international.loc.gov/intldl/mtfhtml/mfdigcol/nlrmp.html#d_eng" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Meeting of Frontiers&lt;/a&gt;" project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The full name of the set is: &lt;em&gt;Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin&lt;/em&gt;. An earlier version was produced in the 1820s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is how the playing cards are described by the Meeting of Frontiers project:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"This souvenir set of eighty-two illustrated cards–one for each province of the Russian empire--presents an overview of each region’s culture, history, economy, and geography in the second half of the nineteenth century. The front of each card depicts the distinguishing features of that region, such as rivers, mountains, major cities, and chief industries. The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This set of playing cards is held at the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. It was digitized as part of the RNL's collaboration with the Library of Congress. The phenomenal result of their collaboration was the "&lt;a href="http://international.loc.gov/intldl/mtfhtml/mfdigcol/nlrmp.html#d_eng" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Meeting of Frontiers&lt;/a&gt;" project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The full name of the set is: &lt;em&gt;Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin&lt;/em&gt;. An earlier version was produced in the 1820s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is how the playing cards are described by the Meeting of Frontiers project:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"This souvenir set of eighty-two illustrated cards–one for each province of the Russian empire--presents an overview of each region’s culture, history, economy, and geography in the second half of the nineteenth century. The front of each card depicts the distinguishing features of that region, such as rivers, mountains, major cities, and chief industries. The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This set of playing cards is held at the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. It was digitized as part of the RNL's collaboration with the Library of Congress. The phenomenal result of their collaboration was the "&lt;a href="http://international.loc.gov/intldl/mtfhtml/mfdigcol/nlrmp.html#d_eng" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Meeting of Frontiers&lt;/a&gt;" project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The full name of the set is: &lt;em&gt;Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin&lt;/em&gt;. An earlier version was produced in the 1820s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is how the playing cards are described by the Meeting of Frontiers project:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"This souvenir set of eighty-two illustrated cards–one for each province of the Russian empire--presents an overview of each region’s culture, history, economy, and geography in the second half of the nineteenth century. The front of each card depicts the distinguishing features of that region, such as rivers, mountains, major cities, and chief industries. The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This set of playing cards is held at the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. It was digitized as part of the RNL's collaboration with the Library of Congress. The phenomenal result of their collaboration was the "&lt;a href="http://international.loc.gov/intldl/mtfhtml/mfdigcol/nlrmp.html#d_eng" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Meeting of Frontiers&lt;/a&gt;" project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The full name of the set is: &lt;em&gt;Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin&lt;/em&gt;. An earlier version was produced in the 1820s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is how the playing cards are described by the Meeting of Frontiers project:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"This souvenir set of eighty-two illustrated cards–one for each province of the Russian empire--presents an overview of each region’s culture, history, economy, and geography in the second half of the nineteenth century. The front of each card depicts the distinguishing features of that region, such as rivers, mountains, major cities, and chief industries. The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This set of playing cards is held at the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. It was digitized as part of the RNL's collaboration with the Library of Congress. The phenomenal result of their collaboration was the "&lt;a href="http://international.loc.gov/intldl/mtfhtml/mfdigcol/nlrmp.html#d_eng" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Meeting of Frontiers&lt;/a&gt;" project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The full name of the set is: &lt;em&gt;Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin&lt;/em&gt;. An earlier version was produced in the 1820s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is how the playing cards are described by the Meeting of Frontiers project:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"This souvenir set of eighty-two illustrated cards–one for each province of the Russian empire--presents an overview of each region’s culture, history, economy, and geography in the second half of the nineteenth century. The front of each card depicts the distinguishing features of that region, such as rivers, mountains, major cities, and chief industries. The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This set of playing cards is held at the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. It was digitized as part of the RNL's collaboration with the Library of Congress. The phenomenal result of their collaboration was the "&lt;a href="http://international.loc.gov/intldl/mtfhtml/mfdigcol/nlrmp.html#d_eng" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Meeting of Frontiers&lt;/a&gt;" project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The full name of the set is: &lt;em&gt;Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin&lt;/em&gt;. An earlier version was produced in the 1820s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is how the playing cards are described by the Meeting of Frontiers project:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"This souvenir set of eighty-two illustrated cards–one for each province of the Russian empire--presents an overview of each region’s culture, history, economy, and geography in the second half of the nineteenth century. The front of each card depicts the distinguishing features of that region, such as rivers, mountains, major cities, and chief industries. The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;For this assignment we will be working with a 4 volume account of the multiethnic population of the Russian Empire published in 1776-1780 (&lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/013186164/catalog%20"&gt;in German&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/008847042/catalog%20"&gt;in French&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/006845685/catalog"&gt;in Russian&lt;/a&gt;, and in English 1780-1783) by Johann Gottlieb Georgi. &lt;/span&gt;The full text is available via HOLLIS (you must be logged in). &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/012479846/catalog"&gt;Click here to go to the HOLLIS record&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In class you will select an ethnic group described by Georgi and represented in the collection of images digitized by the New York Public Library. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your first task is to read the relevant portion of Georgi's text, study the image, and create a bibliography of historical sources one might use to research the ethnic group you have selected.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Add each source (primary or secondary) to the Zotero Library.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Be sure that all appropriate metadata fields are filled in.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "YourFirstNameAndLastInitial".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "ethnographic sketches".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source one of the following tags: "accessible in digital format only" "accessible in print format only" or "accessible in digital and print formats".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Add a brief note (in the "Notes" column) indicating the contents or suggesting the use to which a researcher might put each source. Note that in order to do this, you will need to have at least skimmed the source. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Target number of sources: 4&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your second task is to compose an essay that answers (in no particular order) the following questions about the ethnic group you have researched:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Who were they? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where were they?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What role did they play in tsarist history? (Our focus here is on the 18th century.)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where did they fit in Georgi's classification scheme?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What do we learn from the image itself?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Refer to the guidelines for written work on the syllabus. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Essay length: 1,500 words.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Upload to Canvas and post on Omeka.&lt;/p&gt;</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;For this assignment we will be working with a 4 volume account of the multiethnic population of the Russian Empire published in 1776-1780 (&lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/013186164/catalog%20"&gt;in German&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/008847042/catalog%20"&gt;in French&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/006845685/catalog"&gt;in Russian&lt;/a&gt;, and in English 1780-1783) by Johann Gottlieb Georgi. &lt;/span&gt;The full text is available via HOLLIS (you must be logged in). &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/012479846/catalog"&gt;Click here to go to the HOLLIS record&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In class you will select an ethnic group described by Georgi and represented in the collection of images digitized by the New York Public Library. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This set of playing cards is held at the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. It was digitized as part of the RNL's collaboration with the Library of Congress. The phenomenal result of their collaboration was the "&lt;a href="http://international.loc.gov/intldl/mtfhtml/mfdigcol/nlrmp.html#d_eng" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Meeting of Frontiers&lt;/a&gt;" project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The full name of the set is: &lt;em&gt;Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin&lt;/em&gt;. An earlier version was produced in the 1820s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is how the playing cards are described by the Meeting of Frontiers project:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"This souvenir set of eighty-two illustrated cards–one for each province of the Russian empire--presents an overview of each region’s culture, history, economy, and geography in the second half of the nineteenth century. The front of each card depicts the distinguishing features of that region, such as rivers, mountains, major cities, and chief industries. The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This set of playing cards is held at the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. It was digitized as part of the RNL's collaboration with the Library of Congress. The phenomenal result of their collaboration was the "&lt;a href="http://international.loc.gov/intldl/mtfhtml/mfdigcol/nlrmp.html#d_eng" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Meeting of Frontiers&lt;/a&gt;" project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The full name of the set is: &lt;em&gt;Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin&lt;/em&gt;. An earlier version was produced in the 1820s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is how the playing cards are described by the Meeting of Frontiers project:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"This souvenir set of eighty-two illustrated cards–one for each province of the Russian empire--presents an overview of each region’s culture, history, economy, and geography in the second half of the nineteenth century. The front of each card depicts the distinguishing features of that region, such as rivers, mountains, major cities, and chief industries. The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;For this assignment we will be working with a 4 volume account of the multiethnic population of the Russian Empire published in 1776-1780 (&lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/013186164/catalog%20"&gt;in German&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/008847042/catalog%20"&gt;in French&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/006845685/catalog"&gt;in Russian&lt;/a&gt;, and in English 1780-1783) by Johann Gottlieb Georgi. &lt;/span&gt;The full text is available via HOLLIS (you must be logged in). &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/012479846/catalog"&gt;Click here to go to the HOLLIS record&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In class you will select an ethnic group described by Georgi and represented in the collection of images digitized by the New York Public Library. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your first task is to read the relevant portion of Georgi's text, study the image, and create a bibliography of historical sources one might use to research the ethnic group you have selected.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Add each source (primary or secondary) to the Zotero Library.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Be sure that all appropriate metadata fields are filled in.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "YourFirstNameAndLastInitial".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "ethnographic sketches".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source one of the following tags: "accessible in digital format only" "accessible in print format only" or "accessible in digital and print formats".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Add a brief note (in the "Notes" column) indicating the contents or suggesting the use to which a researcher might put each source. Note that in order to do this, you will need to have at least skimmed the source. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Target number of sources: 4&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your second task is to compose an essay that answers (in no particular order) the following questions about the ethnic group you have researched:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Who were they? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where were they?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What role did they play in tsarist history? (Our focus here is on the 18th century.)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where did they fit in Georgi's classification scheme?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What do we learn from the image itself?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Refer to the guidelines for written work on the syllabus. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Essay length: 1,500 words.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Upload to Canvas and post on Omeka.&lt;/p&gt;</text>

&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "ethnographic sketches".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source one of the following tags: "accessible in digital format only" "accessible in print format only" or "accessible in digital and print formats".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Add a brief note (in the "Notes" column) indicating the contents or suggesting the use to which a researcher might put each source. Note that in order to do this, you will need to have at least skimmed the source. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Target number of sources: 4&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your second task is to compose an essay that answers (in no particular order) the following questions about the ethnic group you have researched:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Who were they? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where were they?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What role did they play in tsarist history? (Our focus here is on the 18th century.)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where did they fit in Georgi's classification scheme?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What do we learn from the image itself?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Refer to the guidelines for written work on the syllabus. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Essay length: 1,500 words.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Upload to Canvas and post on Omeka.&lt;/p&gt;</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This set of playing cards is held at the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. It was digitized as part of the RNL's collaboration with the Library of Congress. The phenomenal result of their collaboration was the "&lt;a href="http://international.loc.gov/intldl/mtfhtml/mfdigcol/nlrmp.html#d_eng" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Meeting of Frontiers&lt;/a&gt;" project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The full name of the set is: &lt;em&gt;Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin&lt;/em&gt;. An earlier version was produced in the 1820s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is how the playing cards are described by the Meeting of Frontiers project:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"This souvenir set of eighty-two illustrated cards–one for each province of the Russian empire--presents an overview of each region’s culture, history, economy, and geography in the second half of the nineteenth century. The front of each card depicts the distinguishing features of that region, such as rivers, mountains, major cities, and chief industries. The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This set of playing cards is held at the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. It was digitized as part of the RNL's collaboration with the Library of Congress. The phenomenal result of their collaboration was the "&lt;a href="http://international.loc.gov/intldl/mtfhtml/mfdigcol/nlrmp.html#d_eng" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Meeting of Frontiers&lt;/a&gt;" project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The full name of the set is: &lt;em&gt;Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin&lt;/em&gt;. An earlier version was produced in the 1820s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is how the playing cards are described by the Meeting of Frontiers project:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"This souvenir set of eighty-two illustrated cards–one for each province of the Russian empire--presents an overview of each region’s culture, history, economy, and geography in the second half of the nineteenth century. The front of each card depicts the distinguishing features of that region, such as rivers, mountains, major cities, and chief industries. The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This set of playing cards is held at the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. It was digitized as part of the RNL's collaboration with the Library of Congress. The phenomenal result of their collaboration was the "&lt;a href="http://international.loc.gov/intldl/mtfhtml/mfdigcol/nlrmp.html#d_eng" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Meeting of Frontiers&lt;/a&gt;" project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The full name of the set is: &lt;em&gt;Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin&lt;/em&gt;. An earlier version was produced in the 1820s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is how the playing cards are described by the Meeting of Frontiers project:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"This souvenir set of eighty-two illustrated cards–one for each province of the Russian empire--presents an overview of each region’s culture, history, economy, and geography in the second half of the nineteenth century. The front of each card depicts the distinguishing features of that region, such as rivers, mountains, major cities, and chief industries. The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;For this assignment we will be working with a 4 volume account of the multiethnic population of the Russian Empire published in 1776-1780 (&lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/013186164/catalog%20"&gt;in German&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/008847042/catalog%20"&gt;in French&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/006845685/catalog"&gt;in Russian&lt;/a&gt;, and in English 1780-1783) by Johann Gottlieb Georgi. &lt;/span&gt;The full text is available via HOLLIS (you must be logged in). &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/012479846/catalog"&gt;Click here to go to the HOLLIS record&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In class you will select an ethnic group described by Georgi and represented in the collection of images digitized by the New York Public Library. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your first task is to read the relevant portion of Georgi's text, study the image, and create a bibliography of historical sources one might use to research the ethnic group you have selected.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Add each source (primary or secondary) to the Zotero Library.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Be sure that all appropriate metadata fields are filled in.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "YourFirstNameAndLastInitial".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "ethnographic sketches".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source one of the following tags: "accessible in digital format only" "accessible in print format only" or "accessible in digital and print formats".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Add a brief note (in the "Notes" column) indicating the contents or suggesting the use to which a researcher might put each source. Note that in order to do this, you will need to have at least skimmed the source. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Target number of sources: 4&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your second task is to compose an essay that answers (in no particular order) the following questions about the ethnic group you have researched:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Who were they? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where were they?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What role did they play in tsarist history? (Our focus here is on the 18th century.)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where did they fit in Georgi's classification scheme?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What do we learn from the image itself?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Refer to the guidelines for written work on the syllabus. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Essay length: 1,500 words.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;For this assignment we will be working with a 4 volume account of the multiethnic population of the Russian Empire published in 1776-1780 (&lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/013186164/catalog%20"&gt;in German&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/008847042/catalog%20"&gt;in French&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/006845685/catalog"&gt;in Russian&lt;/a&gt;, and in English 1780-1783) by Johann Gottlieb Georgi. &lt;/span&gt;The full text is available via HOLLIS (you must be logged in). &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/012479846/catalog"&gt;Click here to go to the HOLLIS record&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In class you will select an ethnic group described by Georgi and represented in the collection of images digitized by the New York Public Library. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your first task is to read the relevant portion of Georgi's text, study the image, and create a bibliography of historical sources one might use to research the ethnic group you have selected.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Add each source (primary or secondary) to the Zotero Library.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Be sure that all appropriate metadata fields are filled in.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "YourFirstNameAndLastInitial".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "ethnographic sketches".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source one of the following tags: "accessible in digital format only" "accessible in print format only" or "accessible in digital and print formats".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Add a brief note (in the "Notes" column) indicating the contents or suggesting the use to which a researcher might put each source. Note that in order to do this, you will need to have at least skimmed the source. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Target number of sources: 4&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your second task is to compose an essay that answers (in no particular order) the following questions about the ethnic group you have researched:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Who were they? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where were they?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What role did they play in tsarist history? (Our focus here is on the 18th century.)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where did they fit in Georgi's classification scheme?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What do we learn from the image itself?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Refer to the guidelines for written work on the syllabus. &lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;For this assignment we will be working with a 4 volume account of the multiethnic population of the Russian Empire published in 1776-1780 (&lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/013186164/catalog%20"&gt;in German&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/008847042/catalog%20"&gt;in French&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/006845685/catalog"&gt;in Russian&lt;/a&gt;, and in English 1780-1783) by Johann Gottlieb Georgi. &lt;/span&gt;The full text is available via HOLLIS (you must be logged in). &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/012479846/catalog"&gt;Click here to go to the HOLLIS record&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In class you will select an ethnic group described by Georgi and represented in the collection of images digitized by the New York Public Library. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your first task is to read the relevant portion of Georgi's text, study the image, and create a bibliography of historical sources one might use to research the ethnic group you have selected.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Add each source (primary or secondary) to the Zotero Library.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Be sure that all appropriate metadata fields are filled in.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "YourFirstNameAndLastInitial".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "ethnographic sketches".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source one of the following tags: "accessible in digital format only" "accessible in print format only" or "accessible in digital and print formats".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Add a brief note (in the "Notes" column) indicating the contents or suggesting the use to which a researcher might put each source. Note that in order to do this, you will need to have at least skimmed the source. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Target number of sources: 4&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your second task is to compose an essay that answers (in no particular order) the following questions about the ethnic group you have researched:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Who were they? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where were they?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What role did they play in tsarist history? (Our focus here is on the 18th century.)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where did they fit in Georgi's classification scheme?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What do we learn from the image itself?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Refer to the guidelines for written work on the syllabus. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Essay length: 1,500 words.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Upload to Canvas and post on Omeka.&lt;/p&gt;</text>

&lt;li&gt;Add a brief note (in the "Notes" column) indicating the contents or suggesting the use to which a researcher might put each source. Note that in order to do this, you will need to have at least skimmed the source. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Target number of sources: 4&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your second task is to compose an essay that answers (in no particular order) the following questions about the ethnic group you have researched:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Who were they? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where were they?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What role did they play in tsarist history? (Our focus here is on the 18th century.)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where did they fit in Georgi's classification scheme?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What do we learn from the image itself?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Refer to the guidelines for written work on the syllabus. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Essay length: 1,500 words.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Upload to Canvas and post on Omeka.&lt;/p&gt;</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This set of playing cards is held at the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. It was digitized as part of the RNL's collaboration with the Library of Congress. The phenomenal result of their collaboration was the "&lt;a href="http://international.loc.gov/intldl/mtfhtml/mfdigcol/nlrmp.html#d_eng" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Meeting of Frontiers&lt;/a&gt;" project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The full name of the set is: &lt;em&gt;Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin&lt;/em&gt;. An earlier version was produced in the 1820s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is how the playing cards are described by the Meeting of Frontiers project:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"This souvenir set of eighty-two illustrated cards–one for each province of the Russian empire--presents an overview of each region’s culture, history, economy, and geography in the second half of the nineteenth century. The front of each card depicts the distinguishing features of that region, such as rivers, mountains, major cities, and chief industries. The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This set of playing cards is held at the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. It was digitized as part of the RNL's collaboration with the Library of Congress. The phenomenal result of their collaboration was the "&lt;a href="http://international.loc.gov/intldl/mtfhtml/mfdigcol/nlrmp.html#d_eng" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Meeting of Frontiers&lt;/a&gt;" project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The full name of the set is: &lt;em&gt;Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin&lt;/em&gt;. An earlier version was produced in the 1820s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is how the playing cards are described by the Meeting of Frontiers project:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"This souvenir set of eighty-two illustrated cards–one for each province of the Russian empire--presents an overview of each region’s culture, history, economy, and geography in the second half of the nineteenth century. The front of each card depicts the distinguishing features of that region, such as rivers, mountains, major cities, and chief industries. The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;For this assignment we will be working with a 4 volume account of the multiethnic population of the Russian Empire published in 1776-1780 (&lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/013186164/catalog%20"&gt;in German&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/008847042/catalog%20"&gt;in French&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/006845685/catalog"&gt;in Russian&lt;/a&gt;, and in English 1780-1783) by Johann Gottlieb Georgi. &lt;/span&gt;The full text is available via HOLLIS (you must be logged in). &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/012479846/catalog"&gt;Click here to go to the HOLLIS record&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In class you will select an ethnic group described by Georgi and represented in the collection of images digitized by the New York Public Library. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your first task is to read the relevant portion of Georgi's text, study the image, and create a bibliography of historical sources one might use to research the ethnic group you have selected.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Add each source (primary or secondary) to the Zotero Library.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Be sure that all appropriate metadata fields are filled in.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "YourFirstNameAndLastInitial".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "ethnographic sketches".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source one of the following tags: "accessible in digital format only" "accessible in print format only" or "accessible in digital and print formats".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Add a brief note (in the "Notes" column) indicating the contents or suggesting the use to which a researcher might put each source. Note that in order to do this, you will need to have at least skimmed the source. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Target number of sources: 4&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your second task is to compose an essay that answers (in no particular order) the following questions about the ethnic group you have researched:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Who were they? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where were they?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What role did they play in tsarist history? (Our focus here is on the 18th century.)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where did they fit in Georgi's classification scheme?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What do we learn from the image itself?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Refer to the guidelines for written work on the syllabus. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Essay length: 1,500 words.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Upload to Canvas and post on Omeka.&lt;/p&gt;</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This set of playing cards is held at the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. It was digitized as part of the RNL's collaboration with the Library of Congress. The phenomenal result of their collaboration was the "&lt;a href="http://international.loc.gov/intldl/mtfhtml/mfdigcol/nlrmp.html#d_eng" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Meeting of Frontiers&lt;/a&gt;" project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The full name of the set is: &lt;em&gt;Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin&lt;/em&gt;. An earlier version was produced in the 1820s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is how the playing cards are described by the Meeting of Frontiers project:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"This souvenir set of eighty-two illustrated cards–one for each province of the Russian empire--presents an overview of each region’s culture, history, economy, and geography in the second half of the nineteenth century. The front of each card depicts the distinguishing features of that region, such as rivers, mountains, major cities, and chief industries. The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;For this assignment we will be working with a 4 volume account of the multiethnic population of the Russian Empire published in 1776-1780 (&lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/013186164/catalog%20"&gt;in German&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/008847042/catalog%20"&gt;in French&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/006845685/catalog"&gt;in Russian&lt;/a&gt;, and in English 1780-1783) by Johann Gottlieb Georgi. &lt;/span&gt;The full text is available via HOLLIS (you must be logged in). &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/012479846/catalog"&gt;Click here to go to the HOLLIS record&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In class you will select an ethnic group described by Georgi and represented in the collection of images digitized by the New York Public Library. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your first task is to read the relevant portion of Georgi's text, study the image, and create a bibliography of historical sources one might use to research the ethnic group you have selected.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Add each source (primary or secondary) to the Zotero Library.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Be sure that all appropriate metadata fields are filled in.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "YourFirstNameAndLastInitial".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "ethnographic sketches".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source one of the following tags: "accessible in digital format only" "accessible in print format only" or "accessible in digital and print formats".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Add a brief note (in the "Notes" column) indicating the contents or suggesting the use to which a researcher might put each source. Note that in order to do this, you will need to have at least skimmed the source. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Target number of sources: 4&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your second task is to compose an essay that answers (in no particular order) the following questions about the ethnic group you have researched:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Who were they? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where were they?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What role did they play in tsarist history? (Our focus here is on the 18th century.)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where did they fit in Georgi's classification scheme?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What do we learn from the image itself?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Refer to the guidelines for written work on the syllabus. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Essay length: 1,500 words.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Upload to Canvas and post on Omeka.&lt;/p&gt;</text>

The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This set of playing cards is held at the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. It was digitized as part of the RNL's collaboration with the Library of Congress. The phenomenal result of their collaboration was the "&lt;a href="http://international.loc.gov/intldl/mtfhtml/mfdigcol/nlrmp.html#d_eng" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Meeting of Frontiers&lt;/a&gt;" project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The full name of the set is: &lt;em&gt;Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin&lt;/em&gt;. An earlier version was produced in the 1820s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is how the playing cards are described by the Meeting of Frontiers project:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"This souvenir set of eighty-two illustrated cards–one for each province of the Russian empire--presents an overview of each region’s culture, history, economy, and geography in the second half of the nineteenth century. The front of each card depicts the distinguishing features of that region, such as rivers, mountains, major cities, and chief industries. The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;For this assignment we will be working with a 4 volume account of the multiethnic population of the Russian Empire published in 1776-1780 (&lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/013186164/catalog%20"&gt;in German&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/008847042/catalog%20"&gt;in French&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/006845685/catalog"&gt;in Russian&lt;/a&gt;, and in English 1780-1783) by Johann Gottlieb Georgi. &lt;/span&gt;The full text is available via HOLLIS (you must be logged in). &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/012479846/catalog"&gt;Click here to go to the HOLLIS record&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In class you will select an ethnic group described by Georgi and represented in the collection of images digitized by the New York Public Library. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your first task is to read the relevant portion of Georgi's text, study the image, and create a bibliography of historical sources one might use to research the ethnic group you have selected.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Add each source (primary or secondary) to the Zotero Library.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Be sure that all appropriate metadata fields are filled in.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "YourFirstNameAndLastInitial".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "ethnographic sketches".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source one of the following tags: "accessible in digital format only" "accessible in print format only" or "accessible in digital and print formats".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Add a brief note (in the "Notes" column) indicating the contents or suggesting the use to which a researcher might put each source. Note that in order to do this, you will need to have at least skimmed the source. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Target number of sources: 4&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your second task is to compose an essay that answers (in no particular order) the following questions about the ethnic group you have researched:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Who were they? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where were they?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What role did they play in tsarist history? (Our focus here is on the 18th century.)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where did they fit in Georgi's classification scheme?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What do we learn from the image itself?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Refer to the guidelines for written work on the syllabus. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Essay length: 1,500 words.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This set of playing cards is held at the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. It was digitized as part of the RNL's collaboration with the Library of Congress. The phenomenal result of their collaboration was the "&lt;a href="http://international.loc.gov/intldl/mtfhtml/mfdigcol/nlrmp.html#d_eng" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Meeting of Frontiers&lt;/a&gt;" project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The full name of the set is: &lt;em&gt;Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin&lt;/em&gt;. An earlier version was produced in the 1820s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is how the playing cards are described by the Meeting of Frontiers project:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"This souvenir set of eighty-two illustrated cards–one for each province of the Russian empire--presents an overview of each region’s culture, history, economy, and geography in the second half of the nineteenth century. The front of each card depicts the distinguishing features of that region, such as rivers, mountains, major cities, and chief industries. The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;For this assignment we will be working with a 4 volume account of the multiethnic population of the Russian Empire published in 1776-1780 (&lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/013186164/catalog%20"&gt;in German&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/008847042/catalog%20"&gt;in French&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/006845685/catalog"&gt;in Russian&lt;/a&gt;, and in English 1780-1783) by Johann Gottlieb Georgi. &lt;/span&gt;The full text is available via HOLLIS (you must be logged in). &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/012479846/catalog"&gt;Click here to go to the HOLLIS record&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In class you will select an ethnic group described by Georgi and represented in the collection of images digitized by the New York Public Library. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your first task is to read the relevant portion of Georgi's text, study the image, and create a bibliography of historical sources one might use to research the ethnic group you have selected.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Add each source (primary or secondary) to the Zotero Library.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Be sure that all appropriate metadata fields are filled in.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "YourFirstNameAndLastInitial".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "ethnographic sketches".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source one of the following tags: "accessible in digital format only" "accessible in print format only" or "accessible in digital and print formats".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Add a brief note (in the "Notes" column) indicating the contents or suggesting the use to which a researcher might put each source. Note that in order to do this, you will need to have at least skimmed the source. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Target number of sources: 4&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your second task is to compose an essay that answers (in no particular order) the following questions about the ethnic group you have researched:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Who were they? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where were they?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What role did they play in tsarist history? (Our focus here is on the 18th century.)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where did they fit in Georgi's classification scheme?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What do we learn from the image itself?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Refer to the guidelines for written work on the syllabus. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Essay length: 1,500 words.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Upload to Canvas and post on Omeka.&lt;/p&gt;</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This set of playing cards is held at the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. It was digitized as part of the RNL's collaboration with the Library of Congress. The phenomenal result of their collaboration was the "&lt;a href="http://international.loc.gov/intldl/mtfhtml/mfdigcol/nlrmp.html#d_eng" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Meeting of Frontiers&lt;/a&gt;" project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The full name of the set is: &lt;em&gt;Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin&lt;/em&gt;. An earlier version was produced in the 1820s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is how the playing cards are described by the Meeting of Frontiers project:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"This souvenir set of eighty-two illustrated cards–one for each province of the Russian empire--presents an overview of each region’s culture, history, economy, and geography in the second half of the nineteenth century. The front of each card depicts the distinguishing features of that region, such as rivers, mountains, major cities, and chief industries. The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This set of playing cards is held at the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. It was digitized as part of the RNL's collaboration with the Library of Congress. The phenomenal result of their collaboration was the "&lt;a href="http://international.loc.gov/intldl/mtfhtml/mfdigcol/nlrmp.html#d_eng" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Meeting of Frontiers&lt;/a&gt;" project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The full name of the set is: &lt;em&gt;Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin&lt;/em&gt;. An earlier version was produced in the 1820s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is how the playing cards are described by the Meeting of Frontiers project:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"This souvenir set of eighty-two illustrated cards–one for each province of the Russian empire--presents an overview of each region’s culture, history, economy, and geography in the second half of the nineteenth century. The front of each card depicts the distinguishing features of that region, such as rivers, mountains, major cities, and chief industries. The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This set of playing cards is held at the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. It was digitized as part of the RNL's collaboration with the Library of Congress. The phenomenal result of their collaboration was the "&lt;a href="http://international.loc.gov/intldl/mtfhtml/mfdigcol/nlrmp.html#d_eng" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Meeting of Frontiers&lt;/a&gt;" project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The full name of the set is: &lt;em&gt;Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin&lt;/em&gt;. An earlier version was produced in the 1820s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is how the playing cards are described by the Meeting of Frontiers project:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"This souvenir set of eighty-two illustrated cards–one for each province of the Russian empire--presents an overview of each region’s culture, history, economy, and geography in the second half of the nineteenth century. The front of each card depicts the distinguishing features of that region, such as rivers, mountains, major cities, and chief industries. The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;For this assignment we will be working with a 4 volume account of the multiethnic population of the Russian Empire published in 1776-1780 (&lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/013186164/catalog%20"&gt;in German&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/008847042/catalog%20"&gt;in French&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/006845685/catalog"&gt;in Russian&lt;/a&gt;, and in English 1780-1783) by Johann Gottlieb Georgi. &lt;/span&gt;The full text is available via HOLLIS (you must be logged in). &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/012479846/catalog"&gt;Click here to go to the HOLLIS record&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In class you will select an ethnic group described by Georgi and represented in the collection of images digitized by the New York Public Library. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your first task is to read the relevant portion of Georgi's text, study the image, and create a bibliography of historical sources one might use to research the ethnic group you have selected.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Add each source (primary or secondary) to the Zotero Library.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Be sure that all appropriate metadata fields are filled in.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "YourFirstNameAndLastInitial".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "ethnographic sketches".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source one of the following tags: "accessible in digital format only" "accessible in print format only" or "accessible in digital and print formats".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Add a brief note (in the "Notes" column) indicating the contents or suggesting the use to which a researcher might put each source. Note that in order to do this, you will need to have at least skimmed the source. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Target number of sources: 4&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your second task is to compose an essay that answers (in no particular order) the following questions about the ethnic group you have researched:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Who were they? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where were they?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What role did they play in tsarist history? (Our focus here is on the 18th century.)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where did they fit in Georgi's classification scheme?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What do we learn from the image itself?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Refer to the guidelines for written work on the syllabus. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Essay length: 1,500 words.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Upload to Canvas and post on Omeka.&lt;/p&gt;</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;For this assignment we will be working with a 4 volume account of the multiethnic population of the Russian Empire published in 1776-1780 (&lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/013186164/catalog%20"&gt;in German&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/008847042/catalog%20"&gt;in French&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/006845685/catalog"&gt;in Russian&lt;/a&gt;, and in English 1780-1783) by Johann Gottlieb Georgi. &lt;/span&gt;The full text is available via HOLLIS (you must be logged in). &lt;a title="" href="http://id.lib.harvard.edu/aleph/012479846/catalog"&gt;Click here to go to the HOLLIS record&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;In class you will select an ethnic group described by Georgi and represented in the collection of images digitized by the New York Public Library. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your first task is to read the relevant portion of Georgi's text, study the image, and create a bibliography of historical sources one might use to research the ethnic group you have selected.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Add each source (primary or secondary) to the Zotero Library.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Be sure that all appropriate metadata fields are filled in.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "YourFirstNameAndLastInitial".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "ethnographic sketches".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source one of the following tags: "accessible in digital format only" "accessible in print format only" or "accessible in digital and print formats".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Add a brief note (in the "Notes" column) indicating the contents or suggesting the use to which a researcher might put each source. Note that in order to do this, you will need to have at least skimmed the source. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Target number of sources: 4&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your second task is to compose an essay that answers (in no particular order) the following questions about the ethnic group you have researched:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Who were they? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where were they?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What role did they play in tsarist history? (Our focus here is on the 18th century.)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where did they fit in Georgi's classification scheme?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What do we learn from the image itself?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Refer to the guidelines for written work on the syllabus. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Essay length: 1,500 words.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Upload to Canvas and post on Omeka.&lt;/p&gt;</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This set of playing cards is held at the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. It was digitized as part of the RNL's collaboration with the Library of Congress. The phenomenal result of their collaboration was the "&lt;a href="http://international.loc.gov/intldl/mtfhtml/mfdigcol/nlrmp.html#d_eng" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Meeting of Frontiers&lt;/a&gt;" project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The full name of the set is: &lt;em&gt;Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin&lt;/em&gt;. An earlier version was produced in the 1820s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is how the playing cards are described by the Meeting of Frontiers project:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"This souvenir set of eighty-two illustrated cards–one for each province of the Russian empire--presents an overview of each region’s culture, history, economy, and geography in the second half of the nineteenth century. The front of each card depicts the distinguishing features of that region, such as rivers, mountains, major cities, and chief industries. The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This set of playing cards is held at the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. It was digitized as part of the RNL's collaboration with the Library of Congress. The phenomenal result of their collaboration was the "&lt;a href="http://international.loc.gov/intldl/mtfhtml/mfdigcol/nlrmp.html#d_eng" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Meeting of Frontiers&lt;/a&gt;" project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The full name of the set is: &lt;em&gt;Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin&lt;/em&gt;. An earlier version was produced in the 1820s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is how the playing cards are described by the Meeting of Frontiers project:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"This souvenir set of eighty-two illustrated cards–one for each province of the Russian empire--presents an overview of each region’s culture, history, economy, and geography in the second half of the nineteenth century. The front of each card depicts the distinguishing features of that region, such as rivers, mountains, major cities, and chief industries. The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This set of playing cards is held at the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. It was digitized as part of the RNL's collaboration with the Library of Congress. The phenomenal result of their collaboration was the "&lt;a href="http://international.loc.gov/intldl/mtfhtml/mfdigcol/nlrmp.html#d_eng" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Meeting of Frontiers&lt;/a&gt;" project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The full name of the set is: &lt;em&gt;Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin&lt;/em&gt;. An earlier version was produced in the 1820s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is how the playing cards are described by the Meeting of Frontiers project:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"This souvenir set of eighty-two illustrated cards–one for each province of the Russian empire--presents an overview of each region’s culture, history, economy, and geography in the second half of the nineteenth century. The front of each card depicts the distinguishing features of that region, such as rivers, mountains, major cities, and chief industries. The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your first task is to read the relevant portion of Georgi's text, study the image, and create a bibliography of historical sources one might use to research the ethnic group you have selected.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Add each source (primary or secondary) to the Zotero Library.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Be sure that all appropriate metadata fields are filled in.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "YourFirstNameAndLastInitial".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "ethnographic sketches".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source one of the following tags: "accessible in digital format only" "accessible in print format only" or "accessible in digital and print formats".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Add a brief note (in the "Notes" column) indicating the contents or suggesting the use to which a researcher might put each source. Note that in order to do this, you will need to have at least skimmed the source. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Target number of sources: 4&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your second task is to compose an essay that answers (in no particular order) the following questions about the ethnic group you have researched:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Who were they? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where were they?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What role did they play in tsarist history? (Our focus here is on the 18th century.)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where did they fit in Georgi's classification scheme?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What do we learn from the image itself?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Refer to the guidelines for written work on the syllabus. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Essay length: 1,500 words.&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This set of playing cards is held at the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. It was digitized as part of the RNL's collaboration with the Library of Congress. The phenomenal result of their collaboration was the "&lt;a href="http://international.loc.gov/intldl/mtfhtml/mfdigcol/nlrmp.html#d_eng" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Meeting of Frontiers&lt;/a&gt;" project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The full name of the set is: &lt;em&gt;Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin&lt;/em&gt;. An earlier version was produced in the 1820s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is how the playing cards are described by the Meeting of Frontiers project:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"This souvenir set of eighty-two illustrated cards–one for each province of the Russian empire--presents an overview of each region’s culture, history, economy, and geography in the second half of the nineteenth century. The front of each card depicts the distinguishing features of that region, such as rivers, mountains, major cities, and chief industries. The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This set of playing cards is held at the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. It was digitized as part of the RNL's collaboration with the Library of Congress. The phenomenal result of their collaboration was the "&lt;a href="http://international.loc.gov/intldl/mtfhtml/mfdigcol/nlrmp.html#d_eng" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Meeting of Frontiers&lt;/a&gt;" project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The full name of the set is: &lt;em&gt;Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin&lt;/em&gt;. An earlier version was produced in the 1820s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is how the playing cards are described by the Meeting of Frontiers project:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"This souvenir set of eighty-two illustrated cards–one for each province of the Russian empire--presents an overview of each region’s culture, history, economy, and geography in the second half of the nineteenth century. The front of each card depicts the distinguishing features of that region, such as rivers, mountains, major cities, and chief industries. The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your first task is to read the relevant portion of Georgi's text, study the image, and create a bibliography of historical sources one might use to research the ethnic group you have selected.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Add each source (primary or secondary) to the Zotero Library.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Be sure that all appropriate metadata fields are filled in.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "YourFirstNameAndLastInitial".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source the tag "ethnographic sketches".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Assign each source one of the following tags: "accessible in digital format only" "accessible in print format only" or "accessible in digital and print formats".&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Add a brief note (in the "Notes" column) indicating the contents or suggesting the use to which a researcher might put each source. Note that in order to do this, you will need to have at least skimmed the source. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Target number of sources: 4&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your second task is to compose an essay that answers (in no particular order) the following questions about the ethnic group you have researched:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Who were they? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where were they?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What role did they play in tsarist history? (Our focus here is on the 18th century.)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Where did they fit in Georgi's classification scheme?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What do we learn from the image itself?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;Refer to the guidelines for written work on the syllabus. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Essay length: 1,500 words.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Upload to Canvas and post on Omeka.&lt;/p&gt;</text>

                  <text>&lt;p&gt;This set of playing cards is held at the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. It was digitized as part of the RNL's collaboration with the Library of Congress. The phenomenal result of their collaboration was the "&lt;a href="http://international.loc.gov/intldl/mtfhtml/mfdigcol/nlrmp.html#d_eng" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"&gt;Meeting of Frontiers&lt;/a&gt;" project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The full name of the set is: &lt;em&gt;Album of Geographical Playing Cards of Russia, arranged on 80 cards according to maritime basin&lt;/em&gt;. An earlier version was produced in the 1820s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is how the playing cards are described by the Meeting of Frontiers project:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"This souvenir set of eighty-two illustrated cards–one for each province of the Russian empire--presents an overview of each region’s culture, history, economy, and geography in the second half of the nineteenth century. The front of each card depicts the distinguishing features of that region, such as rivers, mountains, major cities, and chief industries. The back of each card contains a provincial seal and map and has information about climate, natural resources, and local populations and tribes." &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
