  • UNIVERSITY of CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Byzantine Liturgy and The
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Byzantine Liturgy and the Primary Chronicle A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Slavic Languages and Literatures by Sean Delaine Griffin 2014 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Byzantine Liturgy and the Primary Chronicle by Sean Delaine Griffin Doctor of Philosophy in Slavic Languages and Literatures University of California, Los Angeles, 2014 Professor Gail Lenhoff, Chair The monastic chroniclers of medieval Rus’ lived in a liturgical world. Morning, evening and night they prayed the “divine services” of the Byzantine Church, and this study is the first to examine how these rituals shaped the way they wrote and compiled the Povest’ vremennykh let (Primary Chronicle, ca. 12th century), the earliest surviving East Slavic historical record. My principal argument is that several foundational accounts of East Slavic history—including the tales of the baptism of Princess Ol’ga and her burial, Prince Vladimir’s conversion, the mass baptism of Rus’, and the martyrdom of Princes Boris and Gleb—have their source in the feasts of the liturgical year. The liturgy of the Eastern Church proclaimed a distinctively Byzantine myth of Christian origins: a sacred narrative about the conversion of the Roman Empire, the glorification of the emperor Constantine and empress Helen, and the victory of Christianity over paganism. In the decades following the conversion of Rus’, the chroniclers in Kiev learned these narratives from the church services and patterned their own tales of Christianization after them. The ii result was a myth of Christian origins for Rus’—a myth promulgated even today by the Russian Orthodox Church—that reproduced the myth of Christian origins for the Eastern Roman Empire articulated in the Byzantine rite.

    designer The Official Publication of the University & College Designers Association / Vol. 32, No. 2 Making Magic with Murray An Interview with the Illustrious Illustrator, Murray Tinkelman 1 INSPIRATION Recently at New Jersey City University (NJCU) we were afforded the rare privilege of hosting a remarkable illustration show called The Artist and the Baseball Card curated by Illustration legend Murray Tinkelman. NJCU illustration faculty member, and illustrator of the baseball card Catfish Hunter, Dennis Dittrich introduced his long time friend, professor, and mentor by saying: “When someone reaches a point—and very few people do—but when someone reaches a point in their field where they are absolutely peerless—where whatever that person does cannot be duplicated, imitated, or replicated—they can go by one name.

    Message from the President Paul Helfrich, President & CEO, Dayton Performing Arts Alliance Welcome to Dayton Ballet’s epic production of Dracula: Bloodlines! We’re glad you’re here. On July 1, we celebrated the sixth birthday of the historic merger of the Dayton Ballet, Dayton Opera, and Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra into one operating entity, the first and only merger of its kind in the United States. As we begin our seventh year of working together, I’d like to take a brief look back at some of our activities and accomplishments in the past season. We saw some exciting audience growth, with subscription sales up from the prior year by 7%, single-ticket sales up by 13%, and overall attendance up by 7%. Strong sales for productions including the Verdi Requiem, Swan Lake, Turandot, and a pops series concert with Jackie Evancho played a key role in these encouraging numbers. We thanked some departing staff members for a job well done and welcomed a few newcomers to the team. Pam Eyink and Ellen Bagley retired from our staff after 35 and 18 years, respectively, of outstanding service. We also said farewell to our longtime Ballet Production Manager, Stacie Bigl. Milena Treer now keeps all in order for Dayton Opera in her role as Artistic Administrator–Opera, and Cory Wilhite is the new Artistic Administrator for Dayton Ballet. We’re also pleased to welcome Emily Duffin in her new role as Production Stage Manager. In other staff news, Jeremy Davit succeeded Amber Rose as Chief Development Officer, and we also welcomed Dennis TenWolde and Karen Dempsey Volke to our fundraising team.

    russian history 44 (2017) 209-242 brill.com/ruhi What Do We Know about *Čьrnobogъ and *Bělъ Bogъ? Yaroslav Gorbachov Assistant Professor of Linguistics, Department of Linguistics, University of Chicago [email protected] Abstract As attested, the Slavic pantheon is rather well-populated. However, many of its nu- merous members are known only by their names mentioned in passing in one or two medieval documents. Among those barely attested Slavic deities, there are a few whose very existence may be doubted. This does not deter some scholars from articulating rather elaborate theories about Slavic mythology and cosmology. The article discusses two obscure Slavic deities, “Black God” and “White God,” and, in particular, reexamines the extant primary sources on them. It is argued that “Black God” worship was limited to the Slavic North-West, and “White God” never existed. Keywords Chernobog – Belbog – Belbuck – Tjarnaglófi – Vij – Slavic dualism Introduction A discussion of Slavic mythology and pantheons is always a difficult, risky, and thankless business. There is no dearth of gods to talk about. In the literature they are discussed with confidence and, at times, some bold conclusions about Slavic cosmology are made, based on the sheer fact of the existence of a par- ticular deity. In reality, however, many of the “known” Slavic gods are not much more than a bare theonym mentioned once or twice in what often is a late, un- reliable, or poorly interpretable document. The available evidence is undeni- ably scanty and the dots to be connected are spaced far apart. Naturally, many © koninklijke brill nv, leiden, 2017 | doi 10.1163/18763316-04402011Downloaded from Brill.com09/23/2021 09:14:00PM via free access <UN> 210 Gorbachov Slavic mythologists have succumbed to an understandable urge to supply the missing fragments by “reconstructing” them.
