Max Engman

Max Robert Engman (27 September 1945 – 19 March 2020)[1] was a Finnish historian and translator.

Engman, who from 1968–1973 was an official at the Finnish national archives in Helsinki, published in 1983 a much-noticed dissertation about St. Petersburg and Finland.

In 1985, he was appointed professor in general history at Åbo Akademi.

[3] Engman's research foremost studied the Finnish–Russian relations and the European empires.

His contributions as a subeditor for Historisk Tidskrift för Finland from 1971–1982 and the journal's editor in chief from 1982–2000 are considered as great.
