Dear colleagues from Russia and Germany, We would like to offer you a warm welcome to this, our„4th German-Russian Week of the Young Researcher“! When we celebrated the German-Russian Year of Science“, three years ago, the idea was born to invite young researchers from both countries to come together to discuss current topics of mutual interest. Since then it has grown from strength to strength. The success of the first week in Kazan (2011) encouraged us to turn it into an annual event. The following years we met in Ekaterinburg (2012) and in Novosibirsk (2013). The main goal of these meetings is to foster collaboration among young scientists and researchers who will be Dr. Gregor Berghorn setting the agenda of scientific cooperation between Russia and Germany in the near future. And indeed this year, in 2014, it is a European idea that we convey with our week within the EU-Russia Year of Science as a joint initiative of the EU-Commission and the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation. And as usual research organizations and institutions of higher education of both our countries will be presenting their funding pro- grammes and describing the platforms that they can offer to both Russian and German PhD students or PostDoctoral researchers. The over arching principle behind these presentations is to facilitate collaboration and to broaden research networks. We have chosen the “northern capital” of Russia, Saint Petersburg, as the venue for our fourth German-Russian Week with good reason. Not only is St. Petersburg one of the lead- ing scientific centres in Russia, but it is also closely linked to the topic of our discussion. In contrast to previous meetings, which focused on topics from the fields of engineering, energy or health, during this fourth German-Russian Week we will be debating on historical issues in various regions of the world. Bearing in mind that 2014 commemorates the 100th anniversary of the start of the First World War, which saw the fall of several European Em- pires, we considered it to be relevant and scientifically attractive to invite young historians to Dr. Jörn Achterberg discuss modern approaches towards research on empires. The regions that we will be cover- ing under the general theme of „Global history – Russian-German Perspectives on Regional Studies“ include Europe, Africa, Latin America and Asia. We would like to express our deepest gratitude to St. Petersburg State University and its academic hospitality, to the Consulate General of Germany in St. Petersburg for its kind support, as well as to the Russian Foundation for the Humanities (RFH) and the Council of Young Scientists of the Russian Academy of Sciences (YRAS) and the Council of the Russian Union of Young Scientists (RoSMU). And, of course, we thank all of you, the participants, for your involvement and cooperation in this conference. СПАСИБО ВАМ!

NARRATIVES OF SOCIAL CHANGE IN RURAL BURYATIA, RUSSIA by LUIS RAIMUNDO JESÚS ORTIZ ECHEVARRÍA Under the Direction of Jennifer Patico ABSTRACT This study explores postsocialist representations of modernity and identity through narratives of social change collected from individuals in rural communities of Buryatia, Russia. I begin with an examination of local conceptualizations of the past, present, and future and how they are imagined in places and spaces. Drawing on 65 days of fieldwork, in-depth interviews, informal discussion, and participant-observation, I elaborate on what I am calling a confrontation with physical triggers of self in connection to place, including imaginations of the countryside and

  • Lost for Words Maria Mikulcova
    Lost for Words Effects of Soviet Language Policies on the Self-Identification of Buryats in Post-Soviet Buryatia Maria Mikulcova A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the degree of MA Russian and Eurasian Studies Leiden University June 2017 Supervisor: Dr. E.L. Stapert i Abstract Throughout the Soviet rule Buryats have been subjected to interventionist legislation that affected not only their daily lives but also the internal cohesion of the Buryat group as a collective itself. As a result of these measures many Buryats today claim that they feel a certain degree of disconnection with their own ethnic self-perception. This ethnic estrangement appears to be partially caused by many people’s inability to speak and understand the Buryat language, thus obstructing their connection to ancient traditions, knowledge and history. This work will investigate the extent to which Soviet linguistic policies have contributed to the disconnection of Buryats with their own language and offer possible effects of ethnic language loss on the self-perception of modern day Buryats. ii iii Declaration I, Maria Mikulcova, declare that this MA thesis titled, ‘Lost for Words - Effects of Soviet Language Policies on the Self-Identification of Buryats in Post-Soviet Buryatia’ and the work presented in it are entirely my own. I confirm that: . This work was done wholly while in candidature for a degree at this University. Where I have consulted the published work of others, this is always clearly attributed.

The authors characterize the main periods of history of Russian ballet and its famous representatives. Key words: Russian ballet, choreographers, dancers, classical ballet, ballet techniques. 1. Introduction. Russian ballet is a form of ballet characteristic of or originating from Russia. In the early 19th century, the theatres were opened up to anyone who could afford a ticket. There was a seating section called a rayok, or «paradise gallery», which consisted of simple wooden benches. This allowed non- wealthy people access to the ballet, because tickets in this section were inexpensive. It is considered one of the most rigorous dance schools and it came to Russia from France. The specific cultural traits of this country allowed to this technique to evolve very fast reach his most perfect state of beauty and performing [4; 22]. II. The aim of work is to investigate theoretical material and to study ballet works on this theme. To achieve the aim we have defined such tasks: 1.

  • Zemskii Sobor: Historiographies and Mythologies of a Russian “Parliament”1
    Zemskii Sobor: Historiographies and Mythologies of a Russian “Parliament”1 Ivan Sablin University of Heidelberg Kuzma Kukushkin Peter the Great Saint Petersburg Polytechnic University Abstract Focusing on the term zemskii sobor, this study explored the historiographies of the early modern Russian assemblies, which the term denoted, as well as the autocratic and democratic mythologies connected to it. Historians have discussed whether the individual assemblies in the sixteenth and seventeenth century could be seen as a consistent institution, what constituencies were represented there, what role they played in the relations of the Tsar with his subjects, and if they were similar to the early modern assemblies elsewhere. The growing historiographic consensus does not see the early modern Russian assemblies as an institution. In the nineteenth–early twentieth century, history writing and myth-making integrated the zemskii sobor into the argumentations of both the opponents and the proponents of parliamentarism in Russia. The autocratic mythology, perpetuated by the Slavophiles in the second half of the nineteenth century, proved more coherent yet did not achieve the recognition from the Tsars. The democratic mythology was more heterogeneous and, despite occasionally fading to the background of the debates, lasted for some hundred years between the 1820s and the 1920s. Initially, the autocratic approach to the zemskii sobor was idealistic, but it became more practical at the summit of its popularity during the Revolution of 1905–1907, when the zemskii sobor was discussed by the government as a way to avoid bigger concessions. Regionalist approaches to Russia’s past and future became formative for the democratic mythology of the zemskii sobor, which persisted as part of the romantic nationalist imagery well into the Russian Civil War of 1918–1922.
