But St. Petersburg’s three centuries have matured its material authenticity, recognizable tableaux and unique urban narratives, chiefly the Petersburg Text. The three of these, intertwined in their formation and development, created a distinctive place-identity. The aura arising from this distinctiveness functioned as a marketable code not only for St. Petersburg’s heritage industry, but also for a future-oriented engagement with post-Soviet hypercapitalism. Reflecting on both up-to-date scholarship and the actual cityscapes themselves, my dissertation will focus on the imaginative landscapes in the historic center of St.

Romanov News 76
Romanov News 76 By Paul Kulikovsky August 2014 A monument of Emperor Alexander I in Alexander Garden, at Kremlin, is coming! Monument to Emperor Alexander I in models By Paul Kulikovsky The closed project competition of the planned monument to Emperor Alexander I has entered its final stage. Proposals has been made as models and are now only waiting for the final decision. The contest is for a placement of a monument of Emperor Alexander I at the central alley, in the middle of the Alexander Garden - named after him. In the competition participated 6 well known Russian sculptors, most of them with two projects; Alexander Apollo, Andrei Kovalchuk, Alexander Rukavishnikov, Salavat Shcherbakov, Vladimir Surovtsev and Zurab Tsereteli. They have all in recent years in one form or another been working on the image of Alexander I and are familiar with this topic. Out of these are now chosen three projects, made by Salavat Shcherbakov, Andrei Kovalchuk and Alexander Rukavishnikov, which are so to say in the final run. The final decision on the project is to be made by President Valdimir Putin and the winner is expected to be announced soon. A good guess is that the opening will be timed to the Day of Unity in Russia, on 4th of November 2014. This leaves very little time for the practical work with the casting of the sculpture, in arranging the fundament in the area and the landscaping around it. On August 13, Ludmila and I visited the exhibition of the projects and saw the models and accompanying boards with detailed information, only missing the sculptor's names - only a number identified it.

User:Taksen/sandbox/2 < User:Taksen | sandbox "Rasputin" redirects here. For other uses, see Rasputin (disambiguation). In this Eastern Slavic naming convention, the patronymic is Yefimovich and the family name is Rasputin. Grigori Yefimovich Rasputin (Russian: Григорий Ефимович Taksen/sandbox/2 Распутин, IPA: [ɡrʲɪˈɡorʲɪj (j)ɪˈfʲiməvʲɪtɕ rɐˈsputʲɪn];[1] 21 January [O.S. 9 January] 1869 – 30 December [O.S. 17 December] 1916[2]) was a Russian peasant, an experienced traveler,[3] a mystical faith healer, and trusted friend of the family of Nicholas II, the last Tsar of the Russian Empire. He became an influential figure in Saint Petersburg, especially after August 1915 when Nicholas took command of the army fighting in World War I. Advising his wife, Alexandra Feodorovna, in countless spiritual and political issues, Rasputin became an easy scapegoat for Russian nationalists, aristocrats and liberals. There is uncertainty over much of Rasputin's life and the degree of influence that he exerted over the extremely shy Tsar and the strong-willed Tsarina.[4] Accounts are often based on dubious memoirs, hearsay, and legend.[note 1] While his influence and position may have been exaggerated by society gossip and his own drunken boasting[8] his presence played a significant role in the increasing unpopularity of the Imperial couple.[9] Rasputin was Born 21 January 1869 murdered by monarchists who hoped to save Tsarism by ending Pokrovskoe, Siberia, his sway over the royal family.

The Rise of Photojournalism in Russia and the Soviet
THE RISE OF PHOTOJOURNALISM IN RUSSIA AND THE SOVIET UNION, 1900-1931 by Christopher Stolarski A dissertation submitted to the Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland September, 2013 © 2013 Christopher Stolarski All rights reserved. ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the origins and development of photojournalism in Imperial Russia and the Soviet Union from 1900 to 1931. It analyzes the role of photo-reportage in the illustrated press and examines how publishers, editors, and photographers created a new visual language that shaped public opinion. Tracing the rise of press photography in the Tsarist era, this study argues that photo-reportage offered Russia’s burgeoning middle class an unprecedented venue for publicity; delineates the evolution of photojournalism from a means of public expression to an instrument of political scrutiny; and explores the visual world organized by editors on the magazine page, which reflected and reinforced public values and social norms. This dissertation then shows how, after the Revolution, the Bolsheviks transformed the production of photo-reportage, while still relying on pre- revolutionary models and personnel to create a new Soviet illustrated press. Though offering a wide variety of magazines, Soviet publishers presented a limited range of information and an ideologically uniform image of reality in line with the propaganda aims of the Communist party. This study concludes by demonstrating how Soviet press authorities elevated photo-reportage to an official visual aesthetic. As the country embarked on Stalin’s First Five-Year Plan, this photographic orthodoxy was used to marginalize competing approaches to photography and to invest a pre-revolutionary sense of journalistic authenticity into a staged picture of Soviet reality.
