    An Old Believer ―Holy Moscow‖ in Imperial Russia: Community and Identity in the History of the Rogozhskoe Cemetery Old Believers, 1771 - 1917 Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Doctoral Degree of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Peter Thomas De Simone, B.A., M.A Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2012 Dissertation Committee: Nicholas Breyfogle, Advisor David Hoffmann Robin Judd Predrag Matejic Copyright by Peter T. De Simone 2012 Abstract In the mid-seventeenth century Nikon, Patriarch of Moscow, introduced a number of reforms to bring the Russian Orthodox Church into ritualistic and liturgical conformity with the Greek Orthodox Church. However, Nikon‘s reforms met staunch resistance from a number of clergy, led by figures such as the archpriest Avvakum and Bishop Pavel of Kolomna, as well as large portions of the general Russian population. Nikon‘s critics rejected the reforms on two key principles: that conformity with the Greek Church corrupted Russian Orthodoxy‘s spiritual purity and negated Russia‘s historical and Christian destiny as the Third Rome – the final capital of all Christendom before the End Times. Developed in the early sixteenth century, what became the Third Rome Doctrine proclaimed that Muscovite Russia inherited the political and spiritual legacy of the Roman Empire as passed from Constantinople. In the mind of Nikon‘s critics, the Doctrine proclaimed that Constantinople fell in 1453 due to God‘s displeasure with the Greeks. Therefore, to Nikon‘s critics introducing Greek rituals and liturgical reform was to invite the same heresies that led to the Greeks‘ downfall.

Это представило новые возможности для международных деловых отношений, и известные компании, такие как датская Бурмэйстер энд Вэйн (В&W), Восточно-Азиатская Компания (EAC) и Компания Грэйт Норсерн Телеграф (GNT) открыли офисы в России и внесли свой вклад в развитие страны. Большое количество скандинавов выехало на Восток в поисках своей удачи в растущей деловой жизни и промышленности России. Среди многочисленных путешественников возникало сильное увлечение культурой страны, что привело к созданию высококачественных коллекций русского искусства. Именно по этой причине сегодня в Скандинавии так много предметов русского антиквариата, некоторые из которых будут выставлены на этом аукционе. Самые значимые из них будут ещё до аукциона выставлены в посольстве Дании в Лондоне во время «Недели Русского Искусства». Для более подробной информации смотри страницу 9.

  • Information Technologies of the Project of New Museum Exposition
    Information technologies of the project of new museum exposition “Periods of the history of Kolomenskoye” Author: Olga A. Polyakova Olga A. Polyakova Information technologies of the project of new museum exposition My presentation will deal with Kolomenskoye museum-reserve in Moscow and projects involving use of new technologies that the museum experts intend to employ in their everyday work. Let me say a few words about the museum. It is located in Moscow and occupies a site of 390 hectares. The peculiarity of our museum consists in the fact that quite diverse monuments and objects of cultural heritage are concentrated in it. Lands of Kolomenskoye where the museum is located has been inhabited by people since the most ancient times. The very landscape of Kolomenskoye is the unique object of the cultural heritage. The museum- reserve is situated on a high beautiful place at the Moscow river bank. The oldest trees in Moscow, oaks that are more than 600 years old have survived to the present time in the place. Flood plains, rare herbs and flowers included in the Red book, ravines with exposed geological strata, streams and springs belong to natural monuments. The old park of planted oaks, larches, fir trees, elms and ash trees and gardens of apple and pear trees occupy the greater part of Kolomenskoye plot. The particular value of Kolomenskoye museum is imparted by the fact that the place served as the summer time residence of the Russian tsars for good six hundred years. Originally Kolomenskoye was situated outside Moscow city boundaries. It lies south off the city and Russian potentates did not select the place for their residence on the high beautiful river bank just by chance.

RUSSIA To those who remember the USSR, the Soviet Union was an empire of emptiness. Common words and expressions were “defitsit” [deficit], “dostat’”, [get hold of], “seraia zhizn’” [grey life], “pusto” [empty], “magazin zakryt na uchet” [store closed for accounting] or “na pereuchet” [for a second accounting] or “na remont” (for repairs)_ or simply “zakryt”[closed]. There were no malls, no traffic, no household trash, no money, no consumer stores or advertisements, no foreign newspapers, no freedoms, often no ball-point pens or toilet-paper, and if something like bananas from Cuba suddenly appeared in the wasteland, they vanished within minutes.

  • The Problems of Studying the Ballet in the Culture of the Late XIX - Early XX Centuries
    International Journal of Humanities Social Sciences and Education (IJHSSE) Volume 5, Issue 9, September 2018, PP 11- 15 ISSN 2349-0373 (Print) & ISSN 2349-0381 (Online) http://dx.doi.org/10.20431/2349-0381.0509002 www.arcjournals.org The Problems of Studying the Ballet in the Culture of the Late XIX - Early XX Centuries Тatiana Portnova Doctor of Art History, Professor of Choreography Art department of Slavic Culture Institute, Professor of Art History Department of A. Kosygin Russian State University *Corresponding Author: Тatiana Portnova, Doctor of Art History, Professor of Choreography Art department of Slavic Culture Institute, Professor of Art History Department of A. Kosygin Russian State University Abstract: The article reveals the role of the Russian ballet in the cultural pattern at the turn of the 20th century. Purpose of the article is to determine the direction of development of interaction between national choreography and artistic and imaginative interpretation of its synthetic whole against a background of complex and ambiguous processes taking course at critical stages of the Russian culture, based at the existing visual materials of archive and museum funds. An aspect of art review was selected, allowing consideration of the diverse options of synthesis of ballet and plastic arts. The attraction of the visual arts to “balletness” and the tendency of Russian choreography to rely on images of painting, graphics and sculpture characteristic to the turn of the century are two sides of the single process. In this context, the Sergei Diaghilev's Ballets Russes company, being saturated with expressive plastic spectacular imagery, served as the bright frame for the last stage of the Russian Silver Age.
