Dmitry Petrovich Buturlin (Russian: Дмитрий Петрович Бутурлин; 11 May 1790 – 21 October 1849) was a Russian Empire general and military historian from an old noble family of Ratshid stock. He was admitted into the Governing Senate in May 1833 and into the State Council of Imperial Russia in December 1840.
After giving up his military career, Buturlin was appointed Director of the Imperial Public Library in 1843. Buturlin's obscurantist views led him to demand from Czar Nicholas I of Russia an all-pervasive system of censorship. During the last year of his life he headed the Buturlin Committee [ru], a secret super-censorship organ that supervised all regular censors. The Committee was disbanded early in the reign of Alexander II of Russia.[citation needed]
