Prince Vladimir Petrovich Meshchersky (11 January 1839[1] – 23 July 1914[2]) was a Russian journalist and novelist. He was the grandson of historian Nikolay Karamzin.[3] Meshchersky was editor of Grazhdanin (The Citizen), a traditional conservative newspaper which received subsidies from the imperial authorities.[4] According to Leon Trotsky, "The sole paper which [Tsar] Nicholas read for years, and from which he derived his ideas, was a weekly published on state revenue by Prince Meshchersky, a vile, bribed journalist of the reactionary bureaucratic clique, despised even in his own circle."[5] Meshchersky also contributed to the periodicals The Russian Messenger and Moskovskiye Vedomosti (Moscow News). He was the author of several novels and memoirs. He was a friend of the composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, and acquired a reputation as a homosexual philanderer.[6] His patrons, the Tsars Alexander III and Nicholas II, protected him from public disgrace.[7] References1. ^Ruvigny, Marquis of (1914) The Titled Nobility of Europe, London: Harrison and Sons, page 1008. 2. ^"[https://timesmachine.nytimes.com/timesmachine/1914/07/24/100099081.pdf Czar's Adviser, Mestchersky, dies]", New York Times, 24 July 1914 3. ^Richard Denis Charques (1965) The twilight of imperial Russia, Oxford University Press, p. 51 4. ^Richard Taruskin (2000) Defining Russia Musically: Historical and Hermeneutical Essays, Princeton University Press, p. 281 5. ^Trotsky, Leon, The History of the Russian Revolution: Volume One: The Overthrow of Tzarism, "[https://www.marxists.org/archive/trotsky/1930/hrr/ch04.htm The Tzar and the Tzarina]" 6. ^Peter Stoneley (2007) A queer history of the ballet, Taylor and Francis, p. 53 7. ^Alexander Poznansky (1999) Tchaikovsky through others' eyes, Indiana University Press, p. 77
