Overview

Analysis reveals changing connotations of 'Tatars' in Russian sources, suggesting evolving cultural perceptions.

Key Points

  • The term 'Tatars' evolved from a concept of punishment for sins to a more neutral classification.
  • Chronological layers of the term indicate significant shifts in perception after the Horde adopted Islam.
  • Moscow officials initially hesitated to classify the Nogai with the Tatars due to their new political status.
  • By the end of the period, 'Tatars' served as a general term for Turkic-speaking peoples.
