  • History 251 Medieval Russia
    Medieval Russia Christian Raffensperger History 251H/C - 1W Fall Semester - 2012 MWF 11:30-12:30 Hollenbeck 318 Russia occupies a unique position between Europe and Asia. This class will explore the creation of the Russian state, and the foundation of the question of is Russia European or Asian? We will begin with the exploration and settlement of the Vikings in Eastern Europe, which began the genesis of the state known as “Rus’.” That state was integrated into the larger medieval world through a variety of means, from Christianization, to dynastic marriage, and economic ties. However, over the course of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries the creation of the crusading ideal and the arrival of the Mongols began the process of separating Rus’ (becoming Russia) from the rest of Europe. This continued with the creation of power centers in NE Russia, and the transition of the idea of empire from Byzantium at its fall to Muscovy. This story of medieval Russia is a unique one that impacts both the traditional history of medieval Europe, as well as the birth of the first Eurasian empire.

  • History Is Made in the Dark 4: Alexander Nevsky: the Prince, the Filmmaker and the Dictator
    1 History Is Made in the Dark 4: Alexander Nevsky: The Prince, the Filmmaker and the Dictator In May 1937, Sergei Eisenstein was offered the opportunity to make a feature film on one of two figures from Russian history, the folk hero Ivan Susanin (d. 1613) or the mediaeval ruler Alexander Nevsky (1220-1263). He opted for Nevsky. Permission for Eisenstein to proceed with the new project ultimately came from within the Kremlin, with the support of Joseph Stalin himself. The Soviet dictator was something of a cinephile, and he often intervened in Soviet film affairs. This high-level authorisation meant that the USSR’s most renowned filmmaker would have the opportunity to complete his first feature in some eight years, if he could get it through Stalinist Russia’s censorship apparatus. For his part, Eisenstein was prepared to retreat into history for his newest film topic. Movies on contemporary affairs often fell victim to Soviet censors, as Eisenstein had learned all too well a few months earlier when his collectivisation film, Bezhin Meadow (1937), was banned. But because relatively little was known about Nevsky’s life, Eisenstein told a colleague: “Nobody can 1 2 find fault with me. Whatever I do, the historians and the so-called ‘consultants’ [i.e. censors] won’t be able to argue with me”.i What was known about Alexander Nevsky was a mixture of history and legend, but the historical memory that was most relevant to the modern situation was Alexander’s legacy as a diplomat and military leader, defending a key western sector of mediaeval Russia from foreign foes.

  • Eisenstein's "Ivan the Terrible, Part II" As Cultural Artifact Beverly Blois
    Eisenstein's "Ivan The Terrible, Part II" as Cultural Artifact Beverly Blois In one of the most famous Russian paintings, Ilya Repin's "Ivan the Terrible with his murdered son," an unkempt and wild-eyed tsar clutches his expiring son, from whose forehead blood pours forth. Lying beside the two men is a large staff with which, moments earlier, Ivan had in a fit of rage struck his heir-apparent a mortal blow. This was a poignant, in fact tragic, moment in the history of Russia because from this event of the year 1581, a line of rulers stretching back to the ninth century effectively came to an end, ushering in a few years later the smutnoe vermia ("time of trouble") the only social crisis in Russian history that bears comparison with the revolution of 1917. Contemporary Russians tell an anekdot about this painting in which an Intourist guide, leading a group of Westerners rapidly through the rooms of the Tretiakov Gallery in Moscow, comes to Repin's canvas, and wishing, as always, to put the best face on things, says, "And here we have famous painting, Ivan the Terrible giving first aid to his son." The terribilita of the sixteenth century tsar had been modernized to fit the needs of the mid-twentieth century. Ivan had been reinterpreted. In a similar, but not so trifling way, Sergei Eisenstein was expected to translate the outlines of Ivan's accomplishments into the modern language of socialist realism when he was commissioned to produce his Ivan films in 1941. While part one of his film, released in 1945, won the Stalin Prize, First Class, part two, which was very dose to release in 1946, was instead withheld.

THE REPUBLIC OF NOVGOROD (‘ LORD NOVGOROD THE GREAT," Gospodin Velikii Novgorod, as it once called itself, is the starting-point of Russian history. It is also without a rival among the Russian city-states of the Middle Ages. Kiev and Moscow are greater in political importance, especially in the earliest and latest mediaeval times-before the Second Crusade and after the fall of Constantinople-but no Russian town of any age has the same individuality and self-sufficiency, the same sturdy republican independence, activity, and success. Who can stand against God and the Great Novgorod ?-Kto protiv Boga i Velikago Novgoroda .J-was the famous proverbial expression of this self-sufficiency and success. From the beginning of the Crusading Age to the fall of the Byzantine Empire Novgorod is unique among Russian cities, not only for its population, its commerce, and its citizen army (assuring it almost complete freedom from external domination even in the Mongol Age), but also as controlling an empire, or sphere of influence, extending over the far North from Lapland to the Urals and the Ob.

  • 1 Golden Ring Tour – Part 4 Spaso-Preobrazhensky Monastery
    Golden Ring Tour – Part 4 Spaso-Preobrazhensky Monastery (Yaroslav Museum-Reserve) The Transfiguration of the Saviour Cathedral was once the monastery's main cathedral. https://rusmania.com/central/yaroslavl-region/yaroslavl/sights/around-bogoyavlenskaya- ploschad/spaso-preobrazhensky-monastery-yaroslavl-museum-reserve 1 Built onto the Transfiguration of the Saviour Cathedral is the Yaroslavl Miracle-Workers Church which is dedicated to Prince Fyodor of Yaroslavl and his sons David and Konstantin. All three have since been canonised and are considered local saints of Yaroslavl. The church was built between 1827 and 1831 in the classical style and its front is decorated with six columns. The monastery’s massive belfry stands at almost 32 metres tall. The lower part of the belfry dates from the mid-16th century. This was added to in the beginning of the 19th century when another tier was built on with a dome. The structure, especially its upper tiers, was heavily damaged during the 1918 Uprising and subsequently restored in the 1920s and 1950s. In addition to the 18 bells which are part of the belfry, the Our Lady of Pechersk Church is also located inside. Tickets can be brought to enjoy great views of the historical part of Yaroslavl from the very top, which can be reached via narrow and occasionally steep staircases inside. 2 3 https://luxeadventuretraveler.com/bear- symbol-yaroslavl-gadvrussia/ As the story goes, Prince Yaroslav was sailing down the Volga River and noticed a tribe had settled on a plateau where the Volga met the Kotorsol River. The Prince immediately recognized the trading potential of the confluence and set out to take the land from the tribe.

  • 1 Sergei M. Eisenstein: Alexander Nevsky (1937/8) and Ivan The
    1 Sergei M. Eisenstein: Alexander Nevsky (1937/8) and Ivan the Terrible Parts I and II (1942-5) The history and politics of these films are imbecile. Take the opening of Ivan I: Ivan is crowned, despite the mutterings of the ambassadors, of the boyars, and of ugly old Efrosinia, whose idiot son (he talks with his mouth full) is now debarred the succession. Noble, clean-cut sixteenth-century proletarians gatecrash the coronation, and are abashed by Ivan’s majesty. Cruel, foolish Tartar envoys from Khazan gatecrash the coronation too, and threaten Muscovy with “Moskva – malenky: Khazan – bolshoi!” They give Ivan their equivalent of Henry V’s tennis balls: a dagger with which to kill himself. He treats the gesture with apt contempt, and says that although he has never wanted war, if they want it they can have it. The noble, clean-cut proletarians cheer him, saying with delight, “The Tsar is no fool!” and one eyeballs the chief of the cruel, foolish Khazan envoys with, “Khazan – malenky: Moskva – bolshoi!” whereupon the Khazan envoy looks terribly worried … and so on. The acting is totalitarian; as if Stanislavsky had never been. Behaviouristic it isn’t, and total identification with your part is a long way off – it’s all nineteenth-century ham, in close- up – solid, semaphore acting. And not a raised eyebrow nor a rolling eye is there without 2 Eisenstein’s say-so. Few shots last more than five seconds; the rhythm is dictated, not by the actors’ instincts, but by the director’s will. Actors are not creative artists, but puppets – filmed preferably in close-up, lit from below.

  • Eisenstein's Alexander Nevsky
    IMAGES OF POWER AND THE POWER OF IMAGES: EISENSTEIN’S ALEXANDER NEVSKY "Sights and sounds pointed the way to God, not philosophical speculation or literary subtlety." Billington, The Icon and the Axe Embedded in the title of this conference, "imagining Russia," are two vantage points from which the gaze, and the imagination, proceed. One is Russia as imagined by those outside her borders; the other is Russia as imagined by Russians. The constructs differ, at times significantly, and perhaps some of the confusion to which Mark Von Hagen alluded when he spoke of our often frustrated desire to believe that Russia is like us and will, when it changes, change toward us, derives from the our failure to understand Russia as Russians imagine her. Unlike many of the speakers at this conference, who construed its title broadly, I chose to confine myself to a narrower focus, and to consider images, specifically the images Sergei Eisenstein created in Alexander Nevsky, and how he used the capabilities of cinema to portray power. In the Soviet Union of the 1930s, as indeed before and long after, cinema’s unique combination of mass medium, art form, propaganda mechanism and entertainment industry made it a continuing battlefield for conflicts of major ideological and artistic significance. Nevsky holds particular interest because of its accessibility and genuine popularity: it alone, of all Eisenstein’s films, achieved widespread success. To be sure, much of the reason for its popularity was circumstantial: if the Nazi-Soviet Pact took it off screens shortly after it first appeared, the Nazi invasion guaranteed not only its distribution but also its acute relevance.
