In 1642-1643, the Holy Trinity Cathedral, erected until the present time, was erected by "carefulness and dedication" of Tarasy Tsvetnov in place of a wooden church.

  • Semiotics and Symbolism in the Orthodox Church Architecture
    Special Issue INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HUMANITIES AND August 2016 CULTURAL STUDIES ISSN 2356-5926 Semiotics and Symbolism in the Orthodox Church Architecture Liliya R. Akhmetova Kazan Federal University, Institute of Philology and Intercultural Communication named after Leo Tolstoy, Tatarstan Str.2, Kazan, Tatarstan, Russia Elmira U. Abdulkadyrova Kazan Federal University, Institute of Philology and Intercultural Communication named after Leo Tolstoy, Tatarstan Str.2, Kazan, Tatarstan, Russia Irina M. Maiorova Kazan Federal University, Institute of Philology and Intercultural Communication named after Leo Tolstoy, Tatarstan Str.2, Kazan, Tatarstan, Russia Abstract The movement on restoration of the temples destroyed in Soviet period has begun from below, later local authorities became involved and, at last, the state program on restoration of temples has been adopted. There is a process of returning to the roots, to traditions: not only Orthodox churches, but also Catholic, Buddhist, as well as mosques are being restored. Each temple embodies religious idea in the architecture. Each architectural element comprises a certain symbol. The symbolics in architecture of an Orthodox church is difficult and many- sided. It expresses what directly cannot be represented - it is the terrestrial embodiment of the heavenly, spiritual, non hand-made, sacral. Unlike Catholic temples built according to the art style dominating during construction the Orthodox churches are built according to Orthodoxy symbolics. Thus, each element of an Orthodox church bears some information on the one the temple is devoted to, on some lines of the Orthodoxy and on many other aspects. The architecture as any other art form, has its own language - it is the language of architectural forms.

    Romanov News Новости Романовых By Ludmila & Paul Kulikovsky №132 March 2019 The monument to the Royal Martyrs at the St. Seraphim Cathedral in Vyatka "For the first time in 100 years, a descendant of the Romanovs appeared in Vyatka" From 17 to 20 of March the great-great-grandson of Alexander III, the great-grandson of Grand Duchess Olga Alexandrovna - the sister of Emperor Nicholas II - Paul E. Kulikovsky and his wife Ludmila visited Vyatka. They were invited by the regional public organization "Revival of Vyatka". Paul E. Kulikovsky - "Kirov, or Vyatka as we prefer to call the city, was one of the places on our "to-visit-list", as we want to visit all the places in Russia directly related to the Romanovs, and especially those in which the Romanovs were in exile after the revolution. That is why first of all were visited Romanov related locations and city landmarks. But for the local citizens the main event was a presentation of the book of memoirs of Grand Duchess Olga Alexandrovna “25 Chapters of my life”, followed by a press- conference. City history The city is actually called Kirov - in honour of one of the Stalin co- workers – Sergei Kirov killed in 1934 – but many citizens still use the historical name Vyatka. It was established in 1174. From 1457 to 1780 it was called Khlynov, from 1780 to 1934 Vyatka, and now Kirov. It is the administrative centre of the Kirov region and located on the Vyatka River, 896 km northeast of Moscow. Population is about 507,155 (2018).

The Klyazma river (the fourth order tributary to the Volga) was selected as the object of study. The natural complex of the Klyazma river basin is a combination of different landscapes, each marked by a diverse composition of geomorphological and soil-vegetation structures. The study is based on remote sensing data and the Trends.Earth Land Degradation Monitoring Project (Land Cover Dataset, European Space Agency 2015, 300 m spatial resolution) implemented using the open-source Quantum GIS 2.18. Four landscape provinces and eight site were identified in the studied catchment area according to the geomorphological structure and the soil and vegetation cover. The ecosystem parameters Gross Primary Productivity, Net Primary Productivity, and Ecosystem Respiration were measured in the identified sites.

It is not just a copy of the theological training that is offered in seminaries. Rather, it is a broad theological and religious--cultural education at academic level that is made available for both sexes and for all ages. The new education was initiated through both public and private initiatives as well as by the churches themselves, the Russian Orthodox Church and the Catholic Church. In this study I shall survey the eleven most important Orthodox and Catholic' theological educational institutes in Russia, Belarus' and Ukraine: six in Moscow, two in St Petersburg and one each in Minsk, L'viv and Kiev, describing their origin and comparing their study programmes. These institutes are: 1. St Tikhon Orthodox Theological Institute, Moscow. 2. St Philaret Moscow Orthodox Christian Institute, Moscow. 3. St Andrew's Biblical Theological College, Moscow. 4. Father Alexander Menn Orthodox Open University, Moscow. 5. Russian Orthodox University St John the Theologian, Moscow. 6. St Thomas Institute of Philosophy, Theology and History, Moscow. 7.

Second Report A. P. Seregin Moscow State University, Moscow, 119991 Russia email: [email protected] Received January 20, 2014 Abstract—The second report reviews naturalization and expansion of ten vascular plant species in Vladimir oblast (Russia) in the last decade. All records of Acer tataricum L., Amelanchier × spicata (Lam.) K. Koch, Bidens frondosa L., Cuscuta campestris Yuncker, Galinsoga quadriradiata Ruiz et Pav., Nuttallanthus canaden sis (L.) D.A. Sutton, Poa supina Schrad., Rosa villosa L., Rumex stenophyllus Ledeb., and Zizania palustris L. since the first record until the end of 2013 are summarized. Series of grid maps for each species (dated 2007, 2011, and 2013), frequency of occurrence, ecological preferences, earlier reports from neighboring regions, and probable invasion routes are discussed. The data on further fouryear expansion (2010–2013) are pre sented for ten species characterized in the first report: Epilobium tetragonum L., Hypochoeris radicata L., Ambrosia trifida L., Erigeron × huelsenii Vatke (E. droebachiensis auct.), Aronia mitschurinii A.K. Skvortsov et Maitul., Trifolium fragiferum L., Phragmites altissimus (Benth.) Mabille, Schedonorus arundinaceus (Schreb.) Dumort., Vicia villosa Roth, and Galega orientalis Lam. Keywords: flora, Vladimir oblast, alien plant species, naturalization, invasion DOI: 10.1134/S2075111715030066 INTRODUCTION this creates a significant bias in distribution data on alien plant species, even in adjacent regions.
