  • Viewing the Architecture of Saint Petersburg As Histirical Text
    Viewing the Architecture of Saint Petersburg as Histirical Text William C. Brumfield THE MARQUIS DE CUSTINE AND DOSTOEVSKY If nationalism is a secular religion, it should be noted that a salient aspect of the revival of medieval styles in nineteenthcentury European architecture is the transposition of motifs from sacred to secular architecture. This is espe - cially so in Russia, for masonry architecture in that country before the 18th century consisted almost entirely of churches. Indeed, the church served as the central expression of medieval Russian identity, exemplified by Moscow’s Cathedral of the Intercession on the Moat, popularly known as Basil the Blessed and also known, in the 16th and 17th centuries, as Jerusalem.[1] Built as a votive church in 1555-61 in commemoration of Ivan the Terrible’s victo - ry over the khanate of Kazan in 1552, the structure celebrates the coalescence of Russia and Muscovy’s role as defender of the Orthodox faith. While other Russian churches rarely achieved such connotative density, church architec - ture (including monasteries) continued to serve until the Petrine era as the repository of national identity in architecture. However, the rapid secularization of Russian society during the eighteenth centu - ry led to a redefining of the role of the church.[2] Xis transformation was accom - panied by an equally radical change in the design of the church, whose form could be altered to suit the latest imperial taste (itself a political gesture). Xe church thus became one among many types of monumental architecture subordinate to the state and dependent upon it for support.
