Certain Schools have a dual responsibility e.g. the School of Education is responsible for the Master of Education course in the Faculty of Arts, and the School of Wool and Pastoral Sciences for the undergraduate and graduate courses in Wool Technology in the Faculty of Applied Science. The present membership of the Board of Vocational Studies comprises: Professor A. H. Willis, Pro-Vice-Chancellor (Chairman). Deans of the Faculties of Engineering, Science, Arts, Archi- tecture, Commerce and Applied Science. Heads of the Schools of Applied Psychology, Education, Hospital Administration, Sociology, and Wool and Pastoral Sciences. Heads of the Departments of Industrial Arts and Social Work.

Applications for special admission or admission with advanced standing to courses should be made at the Admissions Office. Local residents should apply prior to 31st December of the year preceding that in which admission is sought. Where applicable documentary evidence should be tendered with the application, and copies should accompany original documents, as this wUl allow the immediate return of the latter. Students applying from overseas for admission to undergraduate courses and to those post-graduate courses which require completion of formal lecture courses should lodge their applications prior to 1st October of the year preceding that in which admission is sought. Applications for admission to undergraduate courses from students who do not satisfy the requirements for admission (see section on "Requirements for Admission"), from students seeking admission with advanced standing, and from students who have had a record of failure at another university, are referred by the Admissions Office to the Admissions Committee of the Pro- fessorial Board. Students seeking to register as higher degree candidates should discuss their proposals initially with the Head of the School in which they wish to register. An application is then lodged on a standard form and the Admissions Office, after obtaining a re- commendation from the Head of the School, refers the application to the appropriate Faculty or Board of Studies Higher Degree Committee. The Admissions Office also receives applications from students who wish to transfer from one course to another, or seek any con- cession in relation to a course in which they are enrolled. These applications should, wherever possible, be lodged before the com- mencement of the academic year in which the concession is to apply. Students wishing to resume their studies after an absence of twelve months or more are required to apply to the Admissions Office for permission to en-rol. It should be noted that, unless BOARD OF VOCATIONAL STUDIES 11 permission has been given to defer their studies for a specified period which will not normally exceed twelve months, students will be required to re-enter the course under the regulations pre- vailing at the time of resumption. This condition will apply also to students who have been re-admitted to a course after ex- clusion under the rules restricting students re-enrolling.

To my father, Anatolii Sviridenok, a devoted Academician for 50 years ABSTRACT This interdisciplinary dissertation explores the World of Art (Mir Iskusstva, 1899- 1904), The Golden Fleece (Zolotoe runo, 1906-1909) and Apollo (Apollon, 1909- 1917), three art periodicals that became symbols of the print revival and Europeanization in late Imperial Russia. Preoccupied with high quality art reproduction and graphic design, these journals were conceived and executed as art objects and examples of fine book craftsmanship, concerned with the physical form and appearance of the periodical as such. Their publication advanced Russian book art and stimulated the development of graphic design, giving it a status comparable to that of painting or sculpture.

RUSSIAN ART EDUCATION: A STUDY ON POST-SOVIET PERSPECTIVES by ROSARIA E. BANG Under the Direction of Melody Milbrandt ABSTRACT This cross-cultural case study was conducted through questionnaire format by way of email correspondence with eight Russian art educators in May to June 2006. It was conducted to give an initial overview into Russian Art Education from the perspectives of eight Russian art educators. The data was analyzed to discover any commonalities in values, beliefs, and attitudes that may have significance to Americans wishing to learn about the structure, content, and pedagogy of Russian art education. The findings of this study reveal that Russian art educators embrace a very traditional and classical approach to the teaching of art. Today Russian art educators are also working toward a more democratic society through art education. The participant interview responses generally reflected a desire to positively communicate and express their educational ideas and beliefs.

  • Career Incentives of Governors in Late Tsarist Russia
    Career Incentives of Governors in late Tsarist Russia Gunes Gokmenyand Dmitry Kofanovz June 2014 Abstract Recent empirical studies show that career concerns may be employed as a tool to improve the e¢ ciency of a political hierarchy. This paper investigates whether the central authorities in the Russian Empire resorted to career con- cerns to improve the performance of provincial governors. To that end, we have constructed a database of individual characteristics and career tracks of the majority of Russian governors in 91 provinces during 1895-1914. Measuring a governor’sperformance by the intensity of peasant revolts and worker strikes in the province under his rule, we provide evidence that the central adminis- tration rewarded better performing governors only in the peripheral provinces (oblasts), but not in the main provinces (gubernias). These results are robust to various sensitivity tests. In addition, we show that political connections had no signi…cant e¤ect on career mobility, and the performance evaluation of central authorities did not change signi…cantly in the aftermath of 1905-1907 revolution. With these …ndings, we shed some more light on the period that led to the collapse of the Russian Empire. Keywords: Career Incentives, Political Hierarchy, Russian Empire.

Unique genealogical information about seven generations of the family is given. According to the family legend, the Stein family moved to the Catholic Poland in the second half of the 16th century after the victory of the reformation movement in Germany. The representatives of the Stein family served to the Polish, Russian, and Austrian Crown. This paper traces the history of the Russian branch of the family, which includes officers and government officials, writers, and journalists. One of the main characters of the publication is the famous philologist and Slavist Sergey Vladimirovich Stein (1882–1955). For the first time, it was possible to precise- ly reconstruct the events of the last 15 years of S. V. Stein's life. The article is accompanied by a large number of illustrations, most of which are published for the first time.

  • Radical Responses to the Soviet Collapse by Joseph Kellner A
    The End of History: Radical Responses to the Soviet Collapse by Joseph Kellner A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Yuri Slezkine, Chair Professor Victoria Frede Professor John Connelly Professor Alexei Yurchak Spring 2018 Abstract The End of History: Radical Responses to the Soviet Collapse by Joseph Kellner Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Yuri Slezkine, Chair This dissertation is the first cultural history of the dissolution of the USSR. It examines the spirited and highly visible search by many Soviets for meaning after the discrediting and disappearance of state ideological control. Marxism-Leninism imagined history as an inexorable if halting ascent, lifting humanity into a luminous, just and rational future. But however vaguely that future was described, it bore no resemblance to the USSR in 1989. Instead, at the twilight of Soviet communism, a newly freed press revealed a darkening world of crime and corruption, and criminals and the corrupt were gaining handily from the newly freed markets. Widespread dislocation in the labor market, mass emigration and cascading crises of public health made the collapse a time of incomparable stress and disorientation. And amidst this material and moral crisis, Soviet streets flooded with prophets, proselytizers and mystics, each offering uncertain citizens new and often radical routes out of the abyss. In examining this milieu, the dissertation explores the ultimate fate of the Marxist-Leninist worldview, once its vision of the future was relegated to the past.

  • Prussian-Russian Zeidlers
    M.T. Valiev A.F. Klebanov Prussian-Russian Zeidlers Our collaboration has quite understandable reason. Alexey Klebanov is the representative of one of the few branches of the Zeidler’s family that remained in Russia. Murat Valiev has been dealing for many years with the history of the German school of Karl May, where four representatives of this well-known surname had been studying. We were driven not The School of Bem – Zeidler. Papula. Vyborg. About 1860. only by the wish to tell the difficult history of one of the German lineage, but, as it seemed to us, by the necessity to raise the problem of historical justice of the relationship and the interaction of two great nations. Additional motivation to study carefully the Zeidlers history was the fact that the founder of the Russian branch of «our» Zeidlers, whose name was Ferdinand Fridrich Zeidler (1832-1886) and the settler of our school, Karl Johann May (1820-1895), they both were married with sisters Bertha and Agnessa Kempe. The history of German cultural penetration to the Russian state has ancient and well-known roots1 . From the beginning of the 18th century the German settlement became the integral part of the Russian urban scenery, German language was the main language of Russian science for a long time; Peter the Great easily installed German standards of the political system. We mustn’t forget that till the end of 18th century all the foreigners in Russia were called “nemtzy” (translated from Slavic as “mute, without understanding of Russian language). One more proof of multiple international ties with Germany could be the list of transitions to the citizenship of Russia – three fourth of foreigners were coming to Russia form German lands as Prussia, Germany, Saxony, Golstinya.

November 2012 3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS It is a pleasure for me to acknowledge the assistance of several scholars who helped make this dissertation possible. At Humboldt University of Berlin, Wolfgang Hardtwig gave accord to my original master’s thesis on Dühring’s concept of history; Jürgen Grosse offered valuable help and input at putting together the concept for the master’s thesis; Volker Gerhard provided encouragement on researching Dühring’s philosophy, and I was able to give two presentations in Rüdiger vom Bruch’s evening colloquiums. I was very fortunate to make the acquaintance Ernst Nolte of the Free University of Berlin during my Grundstudium in Berlin; I thank Prof. Nolte for his interest in my topic, his encouragement during my years of research and for him having read the final English manuscript. The friendly exchange of ideas I had with Carl- Erich Vollgraf, a critical “Dühringkenner”, was also valuable for me. A special debt of gratitude is given to Jürgen Backhaus, who brought me to the University of Erfurt to take on a topic that many professors would deem too unconventional or unimportant. I am also very grateful to my friends Ingeborg Gössler, Fritz Becker and Henrik Hofer, who assisted my work in the Dühring Papers by reading letters written in the old German Current handwriting out loud to me, and Jean-Paul Strohner, who read the final manuscript and offered critical insight.
