200years after throwing off the yoke of the Mongols, Peter Ibecame Tsar. Fascinated byWestern civilization, on the shores of the Baltic he built St. Petersburg  a window onto the world for Russia which until then, had been closed off and living in isolation. It was her most European city, not only because of its splendid architecture but also the many Europeans who tied their destiny to it. One of these was my mothers great grandfather, Johann Joach von Sieverbr?ck, or Ivan Efimovitch Siverbrik.

Barely a half-century after Peter I, Catherine II called The Great came to sit on the throne of the tsars. She was aFrench-speaking German princess from the distant, nowadays Polish city ofSzczecin. She maintained a correspondence with European philosophers, poets and politicians and endeavoured to breathe into Russia the air of modernity and humanism. Atrue European of her day, she ruled Russia, loved her, and became aRussian.

Jochann Joach von Sieverbr?ck was born inRewal (todays Tallin) during her reign. ABaltic German (Deutchbalte) at birth, he was the offspring of aromance between the Estonian governors daughter, aGerman princess and cousin of the tsarina, Catherine von Holstein-Beck, and Feodor Orlov. Catherine the Great ennobled him, bestowing upon him his hitherto non-existent surname. He was an alumnus ofSt. Petersburgs First Cadet Corps and a pupil of the foreign fencing master Fisher. He dedicated his life to the instruction of fencing inRussia. He became aRussian. Fate scattered his descendents all over Europe.

The famous English author Norman Davis stated that he feeling of nationality is not to be found in the blood or the soil or even the language. It exists in the mind. It is the way of perceiving oneself. This was understood by both Catherine the Great and Ivan Efimovitch Siverbrik. The renowned Polish poet Julian Tuwim, who today would be regarded as aJew, once said: Iam aPole because thats what pleases me. In the XVI century another great man, Father Stanislaw Orzechowski wrote, Ego natum Polonus, gente Ruthensis sum. Iam aPole who was born aRuthenian.

Ihope that today, as in the times ofPeter Iand Catherine II, we can choose our identity without being limited by old stereotypes, and that aFrench-speaking German can feel she is aRussian. Ihope that in the future we will grow even closer and that the inhabitants of our continent will state, like Stanislaw Orzechowski: Iam aEuropean who was born aRussian, aGerman, aPole, aJew

My dream is that my ancestor will be acknowledged not just as the propagator of the European school of fencing inRussia, but also as one of the first truly modern and European Russians.
