The very heart of the capital is in the Upper City, the centre of artistic and business life of Minsk.

The Holy Spirit Cathedral – the city’s main Orthodox temple and an architectural monument of the 17th century – is also situated here. The City Hall (constructed in 1600 to commemorate the Magdeburg rights granted to Minsk earlier and reconstructed in 2003 according to old plans and sketches) is situated at 2a Plošča Svabody. The Cathedral of Saint Virgin Mary – a Roman Catholic baroque building constructed in 1700-1710, also known as Jesuit cathedral – is right across the road from the City Hall. Internacyjanaĺnaja vulica features the Wankowicz mansion museum, an architectural monument of the 19th century. In summer, several streets in the Upper City are temporarily pedestrianised and weekend evenings sometimes feature musical performances. If you go down from Plošča Svabody towards Niamiha, you will see another important Minsk church – St Peter and St Paul’s Cathedral (4 Rakaŭskaja vulica). The Trinity Hill (also known as the Trinity Suburb) is a picturesque antique quarter on the bank of the River Svisloch. The Rakaŭskaje Suburb (Rakaŭskaje pradmiescie) is one of the few quarters with buildings preserved since the 19th century.

  • In the Borderland На Прикордонні На Пограничье
    Розділ 1. Теорія та історія культури 147 UDC 730(477.54-25) Shevchenko Svedlow, Andrew J., Ph.D., Professor of Art History, University of Northern Colorado. Greeley, Colorado, USA IN THE BORDERLAND This essay was completed by the author while serving as a Fulbright Scholar assigned to the Kharkiv State Academy of Culture in March 2010. The paper studies the symbolic aspects of the famous monument to Taras Shevchenko in Kharkiv. According to the author, the figure of Katerina is symbolic of the strength of the mother as a metaphor for the state’s ability to lead and protect. The figure of the «Dying Haidamaka» symbolizes the fighting spirit of the revolutionary to fight and die for his country. Built in 1935, the monument was meant to transform the nationalist sentiments in Shevchenko’s poetry into feelings of allegiance to the communist state. However, all these attempts have failed. In contemporary Ukraine this monument is honored and acknowledged not as a symbol of Stalinist Socialist Realism but as a testament to the valor and persistence of the Ukrainian people and state. Manizer’s monumental public sculpture provides an authentic experience that helps the visitor unfold something of Ukrainian history and national identity. Key words: Manizer, Taras Shevchenko, monument, sculpture, symbolism, Socialist Realism, national identity. Ендрю Дж. Сведлоу, професор мистецтвознавства та історії мистецтва, Університет Північного Колорадо, США НА ПРИКОРДОННІ Ця праця виконана автором під час відрядження до Харківської державної академії культури в межах програми академічних обмінів ім.

  • Between Moscow and Baku: National Literatures at the 1934 Congress of Soviet Writers
    Between Moscow and Baku: National Literatures at the 1934 Congress of Soviet Writers by Kathryn Douglas Schild A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Slavic Languages and Literatures in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Harsha Ram, Chair Professor Irina Paperno Professor Yuri Slezkine Fall 2010 ABSTRACT Between Moscow and Baku: National Literatures at the 1934 Congress of Soviet Writers by Kathryn Douglas Schild Doctor of Philosophy in Slavic Languages and Literatures University of California, Berkeley Professor Harsha Ram, Chair The breakup of the Soviet Union in 1991 reminded many that “Soviet” and “Russian” were not synonymous, but this distinction continues to be overlooked when discussing Soviet literature. Like the Soviet Union, Soviet literature was a consciously multinational, multiethnic project. This dissertation approaches Soviet literature in its broadest sense – as a cultural field incorporating texts, institutions, theories, and practices such as writing, editing, reading, canonization, education, performance, and translation. It uses archival materials to analyze how Soviet literary institutions combined Russia’s literary heritage, the doctrine of socialist realism, and nationalities policy to conceptualize the national literatures, a term used to define the literatures of the non-Russian peripheries. It then explores how such conceptions functioned in practice in the early 1930s, in both Moscow and Baku, the capital of Soviet Azerbaijan. Although the debates over national literatures started well before the Revolution, this study focuses on 1932-34 as the period when they crystallized under the leadership of the Union of Soviet Writers.

    Petrushka Choreography and performance: Ildar Tagirov (Russia) Who is Ratatouille? He amuses even on his deathbed. He is used to indulging people, their customs and concerns. He is tired of being a comedy. No one see the tragedy in his eyes. He decides to stop being a clown. He is a normal, sensual and feeling person, yet society has caused him to internalise something which he will never lose: the fear of being misunderstood. Ratatouille is a prototype of a 19th century Russian marionette.
