To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But the independence of Novgorod and of Pskof was not consistent with the ideas entertained by Ivan III. Before he had been long in power he determined to make his authority supreme over the proud and turbulent burghers of those ancient municipalities.
It is difficult to see clearly through an atmosphere TSARDOM. 131 heavily charged with intrigue, but if we turn our eyes towards Novgorod, we distinctly discern among the leading inhabitants of the city the figure of Marfa Boretskaya, the widow o...f the late Possadnik Boretsky, a bold and ambitious, possibly also a patriotic woman. Under her guidance the city determines to throw off its allegiance to Ivan III. , and to transfer it to Casimir, King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania. Accordingly a solemn compact is entered into with that monarch, under the impression that the Grand Prince of Moscow will be afraid or unable to do more than protest. But Ivan assembles his troops and wages war against the rebellious city — war swift and severe.
