Table of Ranks in Russian.

[William Ryan]

My edition of Reiff's Novye parallel'nye slovari (4th edn, Carlsruhe, Leipzig,
SPb and Paris, 1889), which is probably in a number of libraries, has a
complete table at the end, including all equivalents (military, naval, court,
academic, mining service, church) and forms of address. Thus a kollezhskii
assessor is equal to a major, a PhD and an ober-gittenferval'ter, all to be
addressed as vysokoblagorodie. There are useful notes at the foot of the two
pages.
