  • Nick Fielding
    Travellers in the Great Steppe FROM THE PAPAL ENVOYS TO THE RUSSIAN REVOLUTION NICK FIELDING “In writing this book I have tried to explain some of the historical events that have affected those living in the Great Steppe – not an easy task, as there is little study of this subject in the English language. And the disputes between the Russians and their neighbours and between the Bashkirs, the Kazakhs, the Turkomans, the Kyrgyz and the Kalmyks – not to mention the Djungars, the Dungans, the Nogai, the Mongols, the Uighurs and countless others – means that this is not a subject for the faint-hearted. Nonetheless, I hope that the writings referred to in this book have been put into the right historical context. The reasons why outsiders travelled to the Great Steppe varied over time and in themselves provide a different kind of history. Some of these travellers, particularly the women, have been forgotten by modern readers. Hopefully this book will stimulate you the reader to track down some of the long- forgotten classics mentioned within. Personally, I do not think the steppe culture described so vividly by travellers in these pages will ever fully disappear. The steppe is truly vast and can swallow whole cities with ease. Landscape has a close relationship with culture – and the former usually dominates the latter. Whatever happens, it will be many years before the Great Steppe finally gives up all its secrets. This book aims to provide just a glimpse of some of them.” From the author’s introduction.

  • 5 Types of Kokoshnik Tiaras
    5 TYPES OF KOKOSHNIK TIARAS There’s a surprising variety of design possibilities for kokoshnik tiaras. Here are 5 drool-worthy examples and their stories. FILE UNDER: TIARAS WANT ME TO READ THIS POST TO YOU? N A PREVIOUS POST, I TALKED ABOUT I Grand Duchess Hilda of Baden’s stolen tiara. That tiara is a kokoshnik, so I thought I’d explain what that means and show you a few examples. WHAT’S A KOKOSHNIK? THE KOKOSHNIK IS A TRADITIONAL Russian headdress. It’s shaped like a halo, widest above the forehead and a little narrower at the sides. If you’ve seen the golden halos of saints in Russian icons or other Christian art, you get the general idea. Here’s a Russian icon of Our Lady of Kazan from the 19th century: IMAGE B Y ХОМЕЛКА, CC BY- SA 3.0 VIA WIKIMEDIA COMMONS. GIRLINTHETIARA.COM | 5 TYPES OF KOKOSHNIK TIARAS The earliest versions of kokoshniks were covered with fabric and tied on with ribbons at the side. This version is from a painting by Viktor Vasnetsov – he was famous for his romanticized depictions of Russian history and folklore, including a super-famous painting of Ivan the Terrible you’d probably recognize if you saw it. You know the one – Ivan’s throwing creeptastic side-eye, dressed in a fur cap and gold brocade tunic, and holding a staff with a pointy end like he’s about to stab a bitch. IMAGE BY ВАСНЕЦОВ, P UBLIC DOMAIN VIA WIKIMEDIA COMMONS. GIRLINTHETIARA.COM | 5 TYPES OF KOKOSHNIK TIARAS The kokoshnik was part of traditional Russian folk dress, along with the sarafan – a sort of jumper or pinafore with a blouse underneath.

This work is protected against unauthorized copying under Title 17, United States Code. ProQuest LLC 789 East Eisenhower Parkway P.O. Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract The thesis deals with the creation of a ‘public’ in St Petersburg during the first half of the eighteenth century. The term ‘public’ has generated a considerable historiography dealing with its implications for the field of eighteenth-century studies, which are discussed in the introduction along with the contemporary definitions of the word. In eighteenth-century Russia, the term ‘public’ usually carried the meaning of ‘audience’, typically in reference to the theatre and other spectacles. The definition of this and other similar terms provides an important framework through which to analyse the various elements of this phenomenon. This analysis has centred on the city of St Petersburg in this period for several reasons. Firstly, it was the seat of both the Russian government and the Court around a decade after its foundation and Peter I ensured its rapid population.

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.

  • Nekrasov Cossacks' Festive Clothes: Historical Changes and Modern Functions
    https://doi.org/10.7592/FEJF2016.66.vlaskina NEKRASOV COSSACKS’ FESTIVE CLOTHES: HISTORICAL CHANGES AND MODERN FUNCTIONS Nina Vlaskina Abstract: The Nekrasov Cossacks (or Nekrasovites) are an ethno-religious group remarkable for preserving their ancestors’ heritage, especially the traditional costume, cuisine, and songs. Led by their ataman Ignat Nekrasov, in the 18th cen- tury, a group of the Cossack Old Believers left Russia to escape from religious and political persecution. For 250 years, they lived outside of their historical homeland and maintained limited contact with other ethnic groups. They returned to Russia in the 20th century. This paper will study the transformation of Nekrasov Cossacks’ costumes through the last two centuries, analyzing the contemporary use of the Cossack national costume on festive occasions, and interpreting the role of the Cossack national costume in heritage preservation processes. I will analyze the data derived from ethnographic and dialectological studies as well as my own ethno- linguistic field research in the Krasnodar and Stavropol krays (regions) in Russia. The paper will focus on a depiction of the typical Nekrasov Cossack costume and the functional hierarchy of its elements; the declared immutability of the traditional costume vs. its actual transformations and reasons for those trans- formations; the modern functions of the Nekrasovites’ costume as a symbol of identity for the members of the group, as well as a mass media stereotype. Keywords: cultural dynamics, heritage, identity, Nekrasov Cossacks, Old Believers, traditional costume INTRODUCTION The Nekrasov Cossacks are an ethno-religious group remarkable for preserving their ancestors’ heritage, especially traditional costume, food, and songs. Led by their ataman Ignat Nekrasov, in the 18th century, a group of the Cossack Old Believers left Russia, escaping from religious and political persecution.
