Goldfrank This essay originated at the time that ASEC was in its early stages and in response to a requestthat I write something aboutthe church Fathers in medieval Rus'. I already knew finding the patrology concerning just the original Greek and Syriac texts is nothing short of a researcher’s black hole. Given all the complexities in­ volved in the manuscript traditions associated with such superstar names as Basil of Caesarea, Ephrem the Syrian, John Chrysostom, and Macarius of wherever (no kidding), to name a few1 and all of The author would like to thank the staffs of the Hilandar Research Library at The Ohio State University and, of course, the monks of Hilandar Monastery for encouraging the microfilming of the Hilandar Slavic manuscripts by Ohio State. I thank the Dumbarton Oaks Research Library and Collection; and Georgetown University’s Woodstock Theological Library as well as its Lauinger Library Reference Room for their kind help. Georgetown University’s Office of the Provost and Center for Eurasian, East European and Russian Studies provided summer research support. Thanks also to Jennifer Spock and Donald Ostrowski for their wise suggestions. 1 An excellent example of this is Plested, Macarian Legacy.

  • Future of the Obvodny Canal—The Main Line of the Saint
    Architecture and Engineering Volume 2 Issue 4 FUTURE OF THE OBVODNY CANAL — THE MAIN LINE OF THE SAINT PETERSBURG GREY BELT Leonid Lavrov 1, Fedor Perov 2, Raffaele Gambassi 3 1,2 Saint Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering Vtoraja Krasnoarmejskaja ul. 4, St. Petersburg, Russia 3 Via Salceto 87, Poggibonsi,Siena, Italy 1 [email protected], 2 [email protected] Abstract The study looks at the issues of the development of territories in the Obvodny Canal area. These issues, which are of great interest as related to the planned transformation of the Grey Belt, become more aggravated due to the increase in traffic load after the Western High-Speed Diameter (WHSD) opening. A significant decrease in the housing quality and cost of apartments facing embankments is observed, which can be explained by an extremely high level of noise and contamination with exhaust gases. Options for the improvement of environmental conditions, based on the conversion of territories allocated for the canal water area, are proposed. It is being noted that the Obvodny Canal has lost its functional purpose and can be converted as dozens of (nowadays former) canals in the historic center of Saint Petersburg. Keywords Grey Belt, Saint Petersburg transport infrastructure, Obvodny Canal, ecology of living environment. Introduction The canal was abandoned and for a long time it served The Obvodny Canal was constructed in 1803–1835. as a waste canal for local enterprises and residential In 1766, a drainage ditch was dug from the Ligovsky Ca- blocks. In the 1960s, a proposal to fill up the canal was nal to the Ekateringofka River; the western part of the Ob- debated.

  • Agustin Betancourt in Russia1
    Q ’H ’E 2009 AGUSTIN BETANCOURT IN RUSSIA1 Vladimir E. Pavlov 1.- To the service of the Russian Crown2. Agustin Betancourt arrived for the first time in Russia in November 1807 and stayed there for several months, till April 1808. During this first stay he was presented to Alexandre I, charmed him as a person, pleased him as an engineer and got the invitation to enter the service of the Crown under very advanta- geous conditions (fig. 1). He also impressed the royal family, and namely the empress-mother Maria Fedorovna with whom he entertained a correspondence after his departure and whose benevolent atti- tude contributed greatly to concretise this opportunity. Thus, in her letter addressed to Betancourt in Paris, the royal Lady asked him not to postpone his coming to Russia that particularly influenced his decision. In his reply, dated June 22, 1808, Betancourt writes about his definitive decision and preparations for his journey3. The fact that Betancourt had given his prior agreement to Alexander I to turn to the service of Russia is evidenced by the Alexander I’s decree dated March 13, Figure 1.

  • An Artificial Beach As a Means for Sea Coast Protection from Storm Surges (By the Example of the Eastern Gulf of Finland)
    AN ARTIFICIAL BEACH AS A MEANS FOR SEA COAST PROTECTION FROM STORM SURGES (BY THE EXAMPLE OF THE EASTERN GULF OF FINLAND) Leontyev, I.O., P.P. Shirshov Institute of Oceanology RAS, Moscow, Russia Akivis, T.M. P.P. Shirshov Institute of Oceanology RAS, Moscow, Russia [email protected] A model of an artificial beach is suggested for protection of coasts under erosion due to intense storm surges. It is shown that the coarser beach sand results in decrease of the beach width and growth of nourishment volume. At the same time relative material loss due to long-shore sediment transport diminishes too. The model has been applied to three sections of the coasts of Kurortny district of S.-Petersburg (eastern part of the Gulf of Finland). It recommends medium sand for the beaches construction. Modeling of extreme storms effect shows only minor deformations for designed beach profiles. For the beaches more than 1 km long even in 30-50 years more than a half of the initial beach volume conserves without additional nourishment. Key words: sand coast, artificial beach, beach profile, sediment flux, Gulf of Finland. I. INTRODUCTION Artificial beaches are widely applicable in the coastal protection practice for minimizing storm effect [1], [2]. Actual Russian recommendations for calculation of beach profiles [3] are related to coasts with no sea level changes. But there are a lot of coasts with dynamics governed by high storm surges. One of the examples is the coast of Kurortny district of S.-Petersburg in the eastern part of the Gulf of Finland (Fig.
