The research of the famous Russian historian Tatyana Tairova-Yakovleva answers the most pressing question regarding the activities of Ivan Mazepa: was he a traitor or not. Using materials from Russian and Ukrainian archives, the author examines the circumstances of Mazepa's rise to power, his relations with Peter I, domestic policy, personal and business relationships with the Cossack elite and the entourage of the Russian tsar, as well as analyzes the reasons for Mazepa's switch to the Swedes (the "scorched earth" plan, administrative reform, etc.).
The book is addressed to scholars, educators, students, and also to anyone interested in the history of Ukraine and, in particular, the figure of Ivan Mazepa.
The new edition has been made according to the text prepared by the author for publication in Canada in 2020.
