Иван Мазепа Иван Степанович Мазепа (на украински: Іван Степанович Мазепа) е хетман на васалната на Русия Хетманшчина от 1687 до 1708 година. Биография[редактиране | edit source] Иван Мазепа е роден на 20 март 1639 година в село Мазепинци край Била Церква, по това време част от Жечпосполита, в семейството на местния атаман. Учи в Киево-Могилянската академия и в йезуитски колеж във Варшава, след което прекарва няколко години в Нидерландия. През 1665 година се връща в Украйна и заема различни военни и дипломатически постове в Хетманшчината, а през 1687 година е избран за хетман на Левобрежна Украйна. През следващите години той се превръща в един от най-богатите хора в Европа и става известен със своята меценатска дейност. През 1708 година Мазепа отхвърля руския сюзеренитет, надявайки се да създаде независима украинска държава с помощта на шведския крал Карл XII. Голяма част от войските му остават лоялни към руснаците, след като Руската православна църква го анатемосва. След поражението на шведите в битката при Полтава през 1709 година Мазепа заминава на юг с отстъпващия Карл XII. Иван Мазепа умира на 2 октомври 1709 година в Бендери.

Ivan Mazepa Ivan Stepanovych Mazepa (Ukrainian: IBaH CTeпaHoBич Maзeпa, Russian: ИBáH CTeпáHoBич Maзéпa, Polish: Jan Mazepa Kołodyński; March 20, 1639 – October 2, 1709), Cossack Hetman of the Hetmanate in Left-bank Ukraine, from 1687–1708, the Prince of the Holy Roman Empire 1707-1709.[1] He was famous as a patron of the arts, and also played an important role in the Battle of Poltava where after learning of Peter I's intent to relieve him as acting Hetman of Ukraine and replace him with Alexander Menshikov, he deserted his army and sided with Charles of Sweden. The politicization of this desertion has held a lasting legacy in both Russian and Ukrainian national history. Because of this, the Russian Orthodox Church has laid an anathema on his name since the beginning of the 18th century and refuses to renounce to this day. Everyone who opposed the Russian government in eighteenth-century Ukraine were derogatorily referred to as Mazepintsy (Mazepists).[2] The alienation of Mazepa from Ukrainian history continued during the Soviet period, but since Ukraine's independence there have been strong moves to rehabilitate Mazepa's image, although he remains a figure of mixed standing. Contents Early life[edit] Mazepa was likely born March 20, 1639 in Mazepyntsi, near Bila Tserkva, Kiev Voivodeship, the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth (today - Drozdy rural council, Bila Tserkva Raion), into a noble Ruthenian-Lithuanian family. His mother was Maryna Mokievska (1624-1707) (since 1674-75 as a monk Maria Magdalena),[3] and his father was Stefan Adam Mazepa (?-1666). Mokievska was from a family of a Cossack officer who fought along with Bohdan Khmelnytsky. She gave birth to two children - Ivan and Oleksandra. Stepan Mazepa was an Otaman of Bila Tserkva (1654), a Cossack representative of the King of Rzecz Pospolita, a Czernihów Podczaszy (Cup-bearer of Chernihiv, 1662). Ivan Mazepa was educated first in the Kyiv-Mohyla Academy, then at a Jesuit college in Warsaw. As a page was sent to study "gunnery" in Deventer (Dutch Republic) in 1656-1659, during the time of which Mazepa traveled across the Western Europe.[4] From 1659 he served at the court of the Polish king, John II Casimir on numerous diplomatic missions to Ukraine.[4] His service at the Polish Royal court earned him reputation of being catholicized "Lyakh"[5] which later was effectively used by the Russian Imperial government to discredit Mazepa. During that time has arose the legend of his affair with Madam Falbowska that inspired number of European Romantics, among which were Franz Liszt, Victor Hugo, and many others.[4] In 1663 Mazepa returned home as his father fell ill. After the death of his father in 1665 he inherited the title of the Czernihów cupbearer.[4] In 1669–1673 Mazepa served under Hetman Petro Doroshenko as a squadron commander at the Hetman Guard, particularly during his 1672 campaign in Halychyna, and as a chancellor on diplomatic missions to Poland, Crimea, and Ottoman Empire.[4] In 1674–1681 Mazepa served as a "courtier" of Doroshenko's rival Hetman Ivan Samoylovych after was taken hostage on the way to Crimea by Kosh Otaman Ivan Sirko in 1674.[4] In 1677-78 Mazepa participated in the Chyhyryn campaigns during which Yuri Khmelnytsky with the support from the Ottoman Empire tried to regain power in Ukraine.[4] A young educated Mazepa quickly rose through the Cossack ranks and in 1682–1686, he served as a General-Yesaul. Hetman[edit] In 1687 Ivan Mazepa accused Samoylovych of conspiring to secede from Russia, secured his ouster, and was elected the Hetman of the Left-bank Ukraine, with the support of Vasily Galitzine. At the same time Ivan Mazepa signed the Kolomak Articles that were based on the Hlukhiv Articles of Demian Mnohohrishny. Gradually, Mazepa accumulated great wealth, becoming one of Europe's largest land owners. A multitude of churches were built all over Ukraine during his reign in the Ukrainian Baroque style. He expanded the Kyiv-Mohyla Academy, the primary educational institution of Ukraine at the time, to accommodate 2,000 students, founded schools and printing houses. In 1702, the Cossacks of Right-bank Ukraine, under the leadership of hetman Semen Paliy, began an uprising against Poland, which after early successes was defeated. Mazepa convinced Russian Tsar Peter I to allow him to intervene, which he successfully did, taking over major portions of Right-bank Ukraine, while Poland was weakened by invasion of Swedish king Charles XII. The Great Northern War[edit] In the beginning of the 18th century, as the Russian Empire lost significant territory in the Great Northern War, Peter I decided to reform the Russian army and to centralize control over his realm. In Mazepa's opinion, the strengthening of Russia's central power could put at risk the broad autonomy granted to the Cossack Hetmanate under the Treaty of Pereyaslav in 1654. Attempts to assert control over the Zaporozhian Cossacks included demands of having them fight in any of the tsar's wars, instead of only defending their own land against regional enemies as was agreed to in previous treaties. Now Cossack forces were made to fight in distant wars in Livonia and Lithuania, leaving their own homes unprotected from the Tatars and Poles. Ill equipped and not properly trained to fight on par with the tactics of modern European armies, Cossacks suffered heavy losses and low morale, as their commanders were Russians and Germans who did not value their lives or their specific military abilities[citation needed]. The Hetman himself started to feel his post threatened in the face of increasing calls to replace him with one of the abundant generals of the Russian army. Change of sides[edit] The last straw in the souring relations with Tsar Peter was his refusal to commit any significant force to defend Ukraine against the Polish King Stanislaus Leszczynski, an ally of Charles XII of Sweden, who threatened to attack the Cossack Hetmanate in 1708. Peter expected that king Charles of Sweden was going to attack and thought that he could spare no forces. In the opinion of Mazepa, this blatantly violated the Treaty of Pereyaslav, since Russia refused to protect Ukraine's territory and left it to fare on its own. As the Swedish and Polish armies advanced towards Ukraine, Mazepa allied himself with them on October 28, 1708. However, only 3,000 Cossacks followed their Hetman, with rest remaining loyal to the Tsar. Mazepa's call to arms was further weakened by the Orthodox Clergy's allegiance for the Tsar. Learning of Mazepa's treason, the Russian army sacked and razed the Cossack Hetmanate capital of Baturyn, killing most of the defending garrison and many common people. The Russian army was ordered to tie up the dead Cossacks to crosses, and float them down the Dnieper River all the way to the Black Sea. This was done for the purpose of intimidating the Mazepa loyalists who lived downstream along the Dnieper.[citation needed] Those Cossacks who did not side with Mazepa elected a new hetman, Ivan Skoropadsky, on November 11, 1708. The fear of other reprisals and suspicion of Mazepa's newfound Swedish ally prevented most of Ukraine's population from siding with him. Surprisingly, the only significant support which he gathered came from the Zaporizhian Sich, which, though at odds with the Hetman in the past, considered him and the nobility he represented a lesser evil compared with the Tsar. The Sich Cossacks paid dearly for their support of Mazepa, as Peter I ordered the Sich to be razed in 1709 and a decree was issued to execute any active Zaporizhian Cossack. Decisive battle[edit] The Swedish and Russian armies spent the first half of 1709 maneuvering for advantage in the anticipated great battle, and trying to secure the support of the local populace. Finally in June the Battle of Poltava took place. It was won by Russia, putting an end to Mazepa's hopes of transferring Ukraine into the control of Sweden, which in a treaty had promised independence to Ukraine. Mazepa fled with Charles XII to the Turkish fortress of Bendery, where Mazepa soon died. Historical legacy[edit] Mazepa's decision to abandon his allegiance to the Russian Empire was considered treason by the Russian Tsar and a violation of the Treaty of Pereyaslav. However others argue that it was Imperial Russia who broke the treaty, because it failed to even try to protect the Cossack homeland while busy fighting abroad while Ukrainian peasants had complained about the conduct of local Muscovite troops, Cossacks had died while building Saint Petersburg and the Tsars planned to deploy Cossack troops far from their homeland.[6][7] The image of a disgraceful traitor persisted throughout Russian and Soviet history. The Russian Orthodox Church anathemaised and excommunicated him for political reasons. Until 1869 his name was even added to the list of traitors publicly cursed in Russian churches during the Feast of Orthodoxy service, along with Pugachev, Razin and False Dmitry I. Later on a positive view of Mazepa was taboo in the Soviet Union and considered as a sign of "Ukrainian bourgeois nationalism". During the years of Perestroika, however, many historical works saw light which viewed Mazepa differently. After Ukraine's independence in 1991, Mazepa was proclaimed a national hero in Ukraine's official historiography and mainstream media[citation needed], because he was the first post-Pereyaslav Treaty hetman to take a stand against the Tsar, who failed to ratify that Treaty. This view however is still disputed by pro-Russian factions.[8][9][10] Russia has repeatedly condemned Ukraine for honoring the figure of Ivan Mazepa.[11] According to an April 2009 survey by the Research & Branding Group 30 percent of the population of Ukraine views Mazepa as "a man who fought for the independence of Ukraine", while 28 percent view him "as a turncoat who joined the enemy's ranks".[10] During an event in Mazepyntsi to mark the 370th birthday (March 20, 2009) of Hetman Mazepa, President Viktor Yushchenko called for the myth about the alleged treason of Mazepa to be dispelled. According to Yushchenko the hetman wanted to create an independent Ukraine and architecture was thriving in Ukraine over the years of Mazepa's rule, "Ukraine was reviving as the country of European cultural traditions".[12] The same day around a hundred people held a protest in Simferopol against the marking of the 370th birthday of Mazepa. The protesters held posters with slogans as: "Dog Mazepa, damn you and your ideological followers!", "Eternal shame on the sickly Judas - Ivashka Mazepa and his followers!" and "Ukraine's future is in alliance with Russia". They also held flags of Russia, as well as portraits of Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, and Russian Emperor Peter the Great.[8][9] In May 2009 the Russian foreign ministry stated in an answer to Ukraine's preparations to mark the 300th anniversary of the battle of Poltava and plans to erect a monument to Mazepa that those were attempts at an "artificial, far-fetched confrontation with Russia. We would like to remind the leaders of Ukraine that playing games with history, especially with hidden nationalist motives, has never led to any good."[10] Mazepa's portrait is found on the 10 hryvnia (Ukrainian currency) bill.[10] After researching his genealogy in 2009 (then) President of Ukraine Viktor Yushchenko did not rule out that his family is connected with the family of Ivan Mazepa.[13] In August, 2009, a monument to the hetman was unveiled in Chernihiv.[14] The opening was accompanied by clashes between the police and opponents of the Mazepa.[11] The Ivan Mazepa Street in Kiev, which runs past the Pechersk Lavra, was partly changed to Lavrska Street in July 2010.[15] The move was met with protests.[16] Late August 2009 Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko decreed the resuming of a halted construction of an Ivan Mazepa monument in Poltava.[17] A monument to Mazepa will be erected on Slava Square in Kiev in 2010 to fulfill a decree of Yushchenko.[18] As of April 2013 Poltava did not have a monument to Mazepa although the monument was completed and in storage in Kiev.[19] In May 2010 Kiev city civil servants stated the city was ready to establish a monument as soon as the Cabinet of Ukraine would fund this project.[11] According to them the situation was similar to other not realised monuments such as the "Unification Monument" and a monument to Pylyp Orlyk who in 2010 were conceived in 2002 and 2003 but still not build in 2010.[11][nb 1] As of March 2013 the Kiev Mazepa monument is not established.[22] Writings[edit] DUMA (translation by Dimitri Horbay in the newspaper Svoboda March 22, 1958)[23] While all for peace sincerely preach, Not all in one direction reach. Some right, and some left do range, Yet all are brothers, how very strange. There is no love, nor does harmony rank Since we quenched our thirst at the Zhovti's bank. Through disagreement, non are saved. By our own endeavor have we become enslaved. Aye, brothers, 'tis time to see That we all cannot masters be! Not all are grace with knowledge wide Enough, to over all preside. Cultural legacy[edit] The historical events of Mazepa's life have inspired many literary and musical works: - Lord Byron - Mazeppa, poem (1818) - Alexander Pushkin - Poltava, poem (1828–1829) - Victor Hugo - Mazeppa, poem (1829) - Juliusz Słowacki - Mazeppa, drama (1840) - Franz Liszt - Mazeppa, symphonic poem (1851); Transcendental Étude No. 4. - Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky - Mazeppa, opera (1881–1883) - Michael William Balfe - The Page, cantata (1861) - Taras Shevchenko - Kondraty Ryleyev - A Ukrainian-language film by Yuri Ilyenko loosely based on historical facts, called MoлиTBa зa reTbMaHa Maзeпy (Molytva za hetmana Mazepu) was released in 2002.[24] See also[edit] Notes[edit] - ^ The monument to Orlyk was unveiled in June 2011.[20] In August 2013 the building of the "Unification Monument" started as part of a about 6 miles long "Unity Walk" (a pedestrian zone with 27 monuments that will be assigned to each of the 27 region of Ukraine); the opening of "Unity Walk" is planned for the Day of Unity of Ukraine of January 22, 2014.[21] References[edit] - ^ ПPO MAЗEПy y BIДHI (About Mazepa in Vienna).
