Iranians and Greeks in South Russia (Ancient History and Archaeology)
%- IRANIANS & GREEKS IN SOUTH RUSSIA BY M- ROSTOVTZEFF, Hon. D.Litt. PROFESSOR IN THE UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN MEMBER OF THE RUSSIAN ACAPEMY OF SCIENCE I i *&&* OXFORD AT THE CLARENDON PRESS 1922 Oxford University Press London Edinburgh Glasgow Copenhagen Nets York Toronto Melbourne Cape T&tm Bombay Calcutta Madras Shanghai Humphrey Milford Publisher to the University PREFACE THIS book is not intended to compete with the valuable and learned book of Ellis H. Minns on the same subject. Our aims are different. Minns endeavoured to give a complete survey of the material illustrating the early history of South Russia and of the views expressed by both Russian and non-Russian scholars on the many and various questions suggested by the study of that material. I do not mean that Minns' book is a mere compendium. In dealing with the various problems of the history and archaeology of South Russia Minns went his own way ; his criticism is acute, his views independent. Nevertheless his main object was to give a survey as full and as complete as possible. And his attempt was success- ful. Minns* book will remain for decades the chief source of informa- tion about South Russia both for Russian and for non- Russian scholars. My own aim is different. In my short exposition I have tried to give a history of the South Russian lands in the prehistoric, the proto- historic, and the classic periods down to the epoch of the migrations. By history I mean not a repetition of the scanty evidence preserved by the classical writers and illustrated by the archaeological material but an attempt to define the part played by South Russia in the history of the world in general, and to emphasize the contributions of South Russia to the civilization of mankind. -
Advisory Body Evaluation (ICOMOS)
WORLD HERITAGE LIST Moldavian Churches No. 598rev Identification Nomination Painted churches of northern Moldavia Location Moldavia State Party Romania Date 28 September 1990 Justification by State Party The exterior painted walls of this group of churches in northern Moldavia constitute a unique phenomenon in Byzantine art and a masterpiece of mural art. They are of exceptional aesthetic value, covering the entire exterior facades of the churches and forming a perfect symbiosis between colour and architecture. At the same time the colours used blend perfectly with the surrounding landscape (criterion i). This technique of painting the exterior walls of churches was adopted later elsewhere in the region (criterion ii). In European art of the period, the mural painting of the northern Moldavian churches is a unique phenomenon. In terms of the art of Romania, this group of churches constitute a specific phenomenon, from the point of view of architecture as well as painting (criterion iv). History and Description History Moldavia became an independent state in the 14th century, achieving its apogee during the anti-Ottoman crusades of Stephen the Great (1457-1504) and Peter Rares (1527-38,1541-46). This also produced a cultural flowering, the most remarkable manifes- tation of which was the series of churches with painted exterior walls. A generalchristiantradition of decorating the exteriors of churches was adopted and extended in Moldavia to the extent that the entire external facade was covered with paintings. This had its own specific iconography, dominated by certain obligatory themes - the Church Hierarchy, the Last Judgment, the Tree of Jesse. The monuments that are the subject of this nomination form a compact and coherent group in chronological terms, all being built in the 1530s and 154Os, during the reign of Peter Rares. -
(Re)Naming Streets in Contemporary Bucharest: from Power Distribution to Subjective Biography
Page|69 (Re)Naming Streets in Contemporary Bucharest: From Power Distribution to Subjective Biography Ana-Maria Niculescu-Mizil University of Bucharest, Romania Abstract The present study is grounded on the premise that street names represent an embodiment of the socio-political order in the realm of everyday life (Azaryahu 2002, 135-144). It develops on three complementary axes of interest: a descriptive statistical analysis of power distribution among genders and professional categories in the current configuration of street names, a case study of Ion Câmpineanu Street as a ‘memorial landscape’ (Dwyer and Alderman 2008, 165 – 178) and the street's subjective history as it is recalled by locals in semi-structured interviews. Research’s findings sustain the idea that individuals invest personal or contextual significance endorsed with emotional resonance, in street names and rarely reflect upon the personalities naming their streets. The case study outlined Ion Câmpineanu Street as a self-contradictory, vivid landscape, an urban setting where several versions of history vindicate their memory. The analysis of street names in sector one reveals an unequal distribution among genders in favor of men, who are prominent in naming streets. The novelty in the present inquiry emerges from a gender sensitive approach upon the subject of street toponymy and social memory. Street names are understood as an embodied instrument employed in the social construction of gender in urban spaces. Keywords: social memory • memorial landscape • street toponymy • power relations • social construction of gender Introduction The cornerstone of the present research consists of Azaryahu's and Light, Nicolae and Suditu's findings according to which street names are established and modified according to principles which reflect the socio-political order of the moment (Azaryahu 1996). -
Dositheos Notaras, the Patriarch of Jerusalem (1669-1707), Confronts the Challenges of Modernity
IN SEARCH OF A CONFESSIONAL IDENTITY: DOSITHEOS NOTARAS, THE PATRIARCH OF JERUSALEM (1669-1707), CONFRONTS THE CHALLENGES OF MODERNITY A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Christopher George Rene IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Adviser Theofanis G. Stavrou SEPTEMBER 2020 © Christopher G Rene, September 2020 i Acknowledgements Without the steadfast support of my teachers, family and friends this dissertation would not have been possible, and I am pleased to have the opportunity to express my deep debt of gratitude and thank them all. I would like to thank the members of my dissertation committee, who together guided me through to the completion of this dissertation. My adviser Professor Theofanis G. Stavrou provided a resourceful outlet by helping me navigate through administrative channels and stay on course academically. Moreover, he fostered an inviting space for parrhesia with vigorous dialogue and intellectual tenacity on the ideas of identity, modernity, and the role of Patriarch Dositheos. It was in fact Professor Stavrou who many years ago at a Slavic conference broached the idea of an Orthodox Commonwealth that inspired other academics and myself to pursue the topic. Professor Carla Phillips impressed upon me the significance of daily life among the people of Europe during the early modern period (1450-1800). As Professor Phillips’ teaching assistant for a number of years, I witnessed lectures that animated the historical narrative and inspired students to question their own unique sense of historical continuity and discontinuities. Thank you, Professor Phillips, for such a pedagogical example. -
The Symbolic Significance of the String-Course in Orthodox Sacred Architecture
European Journal of Science and Theology, June 2007, Vol.3, No.2, 61-70 _______________________________________________________________________ THE SYMBOLIC SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STRING-COURSE IN ORTHODOX SACRED ARCHITECTURE Mihaela Palade* University Bucharest, Faculty of Orthodox Theology, Department of Sacred Art, Str. Sf. Ecaterina nr. 2,040155 Bucharest IV, Romania (Received 7 May 2007) Abstract A brief analysis of the decorative system peculiar to Romanian sacred architecture leads to singling out an element that distinctly stands out, being present in the overwhelming majority of the respective worship places. It is the string-course, a protruding ornament that circumscribes the median part of the façade and is made of various materials: stone, brick, plaster. At first sight it appears to be an agreeable, ingenious aesthetic solution, since the horizontal line it emphasizes enters into a pleasant dialogue with the vertical arches, windows, pillars and other upright elements. The present essay points out that this element is not a mere aesthetic device, but has a deep symbolic significance related to that of the church it girdles. Keywords: girding one’s waist with the belt, the Church – Christ’s mystical body, string- course, girding one with strength Motto: Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing; Thou hast loosed my sackcloth, And girded me with gladness. (Psalm 29/30.10, 11) 1. The presence of the string-course in the Orthodox sacred architecture; types and variations exemplified within the Romanian area In the Byzantine architecture, one or several horizontal profiles mark the outside decoration, surrounding the façade either from end to end or only partially. -
Architectural and Functional/Liturgical Development of the North-West Church in Hippos (Sussita) 148 JOLANTA MŁYNARCZYK
CENTRE D’ARCHÉOLOGIE MÉDITERRANÉENNE DE L’ACADÉMIE POLONAISE DES SCIENCES ÉTUDES et TRAVAUX XXII 2008 JOLANTA MŁYNARCZYK Architectural and Functional/Liturgical Development of the North-West Church in Hippos (Sussita) 148 JOLANTA MŁYNARCZYK In July 2007, the eighth season of excavations was completed at the so-called North- West Church at Hippos (Sussita), one of the cities of the Decapolis. The church was explored by a Polish team within the framework of an international project devoted to the unearth- ing of the remains of that Graeco-Roman and Byzantine-Umayyad period town, headed by Arthur Segal of the University of Haifa. Despite the fact that as many as four churches have so far been uncovered at Sussita,1 it is only the North-West Church (NWC) that became one of the examples discussed by A. Ovadiah in his paper listing Byzantine-peri- od churches excavated within the borders of the present-day Israel, in which architectural changes apparently refl ect some liturgical modifi cations.2 Unfortunately, A. Ovadiah’s interpretation of the NWC (published in 2005) not only was based on the reports of the early seasons of our fi eldwork (2002, 2003), but also proved to be rather superfi cial one, a fact which calls for a careful re-examination of the excavation data. Perhaps the most important fact about the NWC is that this has been one of rare in- stances attested for the region of a church that was still active as such during the Um- ayyad period.

The Spread of Christianity in the Eastern Black Sea Littoral (Written and Archaeological Sources)*
9863-07_AncientW&E_09 07-11-2007 16:04 Pagina 177 doi: 10.2143/AWE.6.0.2022799 AWE 6 (2007) 177-219 THE SPREAD OF CHRISTIANITY IN THE EASTERN BLACK SEA LITTORAL (WRITTEN AND ARCHAEOLOGICAL SOURCES)* L.G. KHRUSHKOVA Abstract This article presents a brief summary of the literary and archaeological evidence for the spread and consolidation of Christianity in the eastern Black Sea littoral during the early Christian era (4th-7th centuries AD). Colchis is one of the regions of the late antique world for which the archaeological evidence of Christianisation is greater and more varied than the literary. Developments during the past decade in the field of early Christian archaeology now enable this process to be described in considerably greater detail The eastern Black Sea littoral–ancient Colchis–comprises (from north to south) part of the Sochi district of the Krasnodar region of the Russian Federation as far as the River Psou, then Abkhazia as far as the River Ingur (Engur), and, further south, the western provinces of Georgia: Megrelia (Samegrelo), Guria, Imereti and Adzhara (Fig. 1). This article provides a summary of the literary and archaeological evidence for the spread and consolidation of Christianity in the region during the early Christ- ian era (4th-7th centuries AD).1 Colchis is one of the regions of late antiquity for which the archaeological evidence of Christianisation is greater and more varied than the literary. Progress during the past decade in the field of early Christian archaeology now enables this process to be described in considerably greater detail.2 The many early Christian monuments of Colchis are found in ancient cities and fortresses that are familiar through the written sources.3 These include Pityus (modern Pitsunda, Abkhazian Mzakhara, Georgian Bichvinta); Nitike (modern Gagra); Trakheia, which is surely Anakopiya (modern Novyi Afon, Abkhazian Psyrtskha); Dioscuria/ * Translated from Russian by Brent Davis. -
Unele Aspecte Privind Politica Internă a Ţării Moldovei În Perioada 1517-1523
ACTA MOLDAVlAE MERIDIONALIS, 20XXXll, 11 18 UNELE ASPECTE PRIVIND POLITICA INTERNĂ A ŢĂRII MOLDOVEI ÎN PERIOADA 1517-1523 Cosmin Niţă• Cuvintecheie: Moldova medievală, Ştefan cel Tânăr, Sfatul ţării. Key words: Moldova medieval, Stephen the Y ounger, country advice. Abstract: Achievements of the reignof Stephen the Great in policy constituted a ground fo r his fo llowers but also a disposition. From advice Bogdan IIIhas created a core that will detennine the country'spo licy both internally and externally. The royal council dignitaries were transmitted in a fa mily, so when there is no one royal regency new governor and prince Stephen desire to make changes in the tip, in the first half of 1523, led to the outbreak of boyars revolt which is another phase of the reign of Stephen the Younger causing major changes in the composition of the Lord's counsel and domestic policy. 1. Contextul ungerii ca domn a lui Ştefan cel Tânăr Realizările din vremea lui Ştefan cel Mare în domeniul politicii atât interne cât şi externe, ca şi cele privind ridicarea culturală au constituit pentru urmaşii săi imediaţi, din secolul XVI un temei dar totodată şi un fel de dispoziţie testamentară. Înconjurat - mai ales la început - de rivali în interior şi din exterior, Ştefan cel Mare a ştiut să ducă Moldova către o formă de supravieţuire adaptată condiţiilor din acea vreme. Luptând cu înverşunare pentru a menţine integritatea Ţării Moldovei, înfruntând pe Mahomed Il, pe Matei Corvin, pe regele Albert al Poloniei, pe tătari sau pe schimbătorii domni ai Tării Româneşti. În ultima etapă a domniei Ştefan cel Mare a intuit că Moldova nu va exista ca stat doar garantat de puterile creştine, ci va fiinţa rămânând sub suzeranitatea Porţii Otomane' De această politică pe care a dus-o Ştefan cel Mare urmaşii săi direcţi au ţinut seama. -
