In turn, Kruzenshtern had the instruction of the Russian-American Company, which entrusted him with the leadership of the expedition and the general command of the ships. Rezanov's statement, which declared in Tenerife that he "the head of both ships", deeply angered Kruzenshtern, and he refused to obey the envoy. However, on the island of St. Catherine Rezanov again started talking about his rights to guide the expedition.


Kruzenshtern has informed Rumyantsev and Chichagov about these claims and has addressed with the extensive letter to Alexander I, in which he reported that he "will confront" against all attempts of Rezanov to interfere with his (Krusenshtern) leadership in voyage and never will agree to recognize legitimacy of the instruction of the envoy.


The tense situation created because of the claims Rezanov, - continued Kruzenshtern, - "saps the strength of man." In Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky Kruzenshtern was going to surrender command of the courts to other officers. It was an ultimatum" [1].


"Kruzenshtern play hypocrite a little. He was well aware of the decision of Alexander I. Even in Kronstadt he was informed by Rezanov about a will of the Emperor. The company's management in the instructions to him, Kruzenshtern, wrote about Rezanov that "empowering him with a rights of full manager not only during the voyage, but also in America," Required Kruzenshtern: "You will not leave to follow his advice in all things"" [2].


So we can note that the in expedition were objectively established three centers of power (Troyecentricity).


The multicentricity itself, but in format not Troyecentricity, but Twocentricity, is not unique.


In the depth of history we watch, for example, two Roman consuls.


During Alexander I's era, after the beginning of Patriotic war of 1812, we see relatively equal Bagration and Barclay de Tolly.


Probably, it is possible to recall also commissioners who during some periods could repeal orders of commanders.


S.P. Melgunov called the book "Alexander I. A sphinx on a throne".


In a Troyecentricity we can see a mysterious smile of the Sphinx.


Was there a rational motivation of a Troyecentricity?


Perhaps the following rationale can be found for management, which is using Troyecentricity:


(1) The priority of the Embassy (imperial task).

Note: After "war of nerves" and self-isolation N. P. Rezanov in his cabin, the expedition is becoming a two-centric de facto.


Control under an expedition becomes a two-centric (a twocentriate) de jure from the moment of completion of attempts of placement of embassy in Japan, Rezanov's step down out board the "Hope" (1805) and N.P. Rezanov's directions to Russia through Siberia (in way N.P. Rezanov died of a disease in 1807).


The Polycentrism (Twocentrism) "is nullified" after an output from the Canton and traverse of the Cape of Good Hope by the ships.


The ships lost each other from a view and further moved independently of each other on different paths.


(2) The polycentrism promoted complementarity. During certain periods of floating (especially during an initial stage) both captains acted jointly, that allowed novice captains (relatively novice) to lean on cooperation and mutual assistance, accumulating experience. In foreign ports two ships looked more seriously, than one.


(3) The polycentrism provided mutual monitoring (mutual control).


(4) The polycentrism created the atmosphere of competitive spirit. Though Lisyansky's aspiration to independent float can raise some questions, it, this aspiration, was programmed by the polycentrism of control of an expedition.


"The tense situation created because of Rezanov's claims, ... "exhausts forces human". In Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky Kruzenshtern was going to hand over command of vessels to other officers. It was the ultimatum.


In a letter to the naval minister P. V. Chichagov, Lisyansky wrote: "Having undertaken a voyage around the world under the command of my friend, ... I just waited for the minute of this important event, but in the Marquesas Islands everything turned into a dream. There Mr. Rezanov announced to us publicly that he is our boss. Having risked every minute lifes for the glory of our sovereign and Fatherland, was it possible for us to wait for the such commander of such an important expedition, - commander, that had never seen the sea before?


"The commander of the 'Neva' appealed to the Main Board of the Russian-American Company and to the Minister of Commerce Rumiantsev with a request to dismiss him command of the ship "or exclude from the command of the one, from whom, apart from the unfortunate end of all our labors, nothing can be expected." However, the petitions of Kruzenshtern and Lisyansky about resignation were not taken into account.

Достоевский
Достоевский

"Достоевский таков, какова Россия, со всей ее тьмой и светом. И он - самый большой вклад России в духовную жизнь всего мира". Это слова Н.Бердяева, но с ними согласны и другие исследователи творчества великого писателя, открывшего в душе человека такие бездны добра и зла, каких не могла представить себе вся предшествующая мировая литература. В великих произведениях Достоевского в полной мере отражается его судьба - таинственная смерть отца, годы бедности и духовных исканий, каторга и солдатчина за участие в революционном кружке, трудное восхождение к славе, сделавшей его - как при жизни, так и посмертно - объектом, как восторженных похвал, так и ожесточенных нападок. Подробности жизни писателя, вплоть до самых неизвестных и "неудобных", в полной мере отражены в его новой биографии, принадлежащей перу Людмилы Сараскиной - известного историка литературы, автора пятнадцати книг, посвященных Достоевскому и его современникам.
