Within the scope of research on the general outline of Russian folklore distribution in Yakutia during its period of flourishment, we also overview the local features which were established in the course of an extended time-period; a number of example will be presented from epic texts created in the following areas: Biryuk of the Olyokminsky region, Pohodsk and Russkoye Ustye located on the shore of the Arctic Ocean. Written records by V.G. Bogoraz compiled at the end of the 19th century, the written records compiled by S.I. Bolo, N.A. Gabyshev at the early 1940s, and written records created by Y.I.

  • Russia and Siberia: the Beginning of the Penetration of Russian People Into Siberia, the Campaign of Ataman Yermak and It’S Consequences
    The Aoyama Journal of International Politics, Economics and Communication, No. 106, May 2021 CCCCCCCCC Article CCCCCCCCC Russia and Siberia: The Beginning of the Penetration of Russian People into Siberia, the Campaign of Ataman Yermak and it’s Consequences Aleksandr A. Brodnikov* Petr E. Podalko** The penetration of the Russian people into Siberia probably began more than a thousand years ago. Old Russian chronicles mention that already in the 11th century, the northwestern part of Siberia, then known as Yugra1), was a “volost”2) of the Novgorod Land3). The Novgorod ush- * Associate Professor, Novosibirsk State University ** Professor, Aoyama Gakuin University 1) Initially, Yugra was the name of the territory between the mouth of the river Pechora and the Ural Mountains, where the Finno-Ugric tribes historically lived. Gradually, with the advancement of the Russian people to the East, this territorial name spread across the north of Western Siberia to the river Taz. Since 2003, Yugra has been part of the offi cial name of the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug: Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug—Yugra. 2) Volost—from the Old Russian “power, country, district”—means here the territo- rial-administrative unit of the aboriginal population with the most authoritative leader, the chief, from whom a certain amount of furs was collected. 3) Novgorod Land (literally “New City”) refers to a land, also known as “Gospodin (Lord) Veliky (Great) Novgorod”, or “Novgorod Republic”, with its administrative center in Veliky Novgorod, which had from the 10th century a tendency towards autonomy from Kiev, the capital of Ancient Kievan Rus. From the end of the 11th century, Novgorod de-facto became an independent city-state that subdued the entire north of Eastern Europe.

  • The Northern Routeing in the Arctic Sea and Russian History
    講演(02) The Northern Routeing in the Arctic Sea and Russian History Leonid M. Mitnik V.I. Il'ichev Pacific Oceanological Institute FEB RAS 690041 Vladivostok, Russia, e-mail: [email protected] “History is a lantern to the future, which shines to us from the past” (V.О. Klyuchevskiy, 1841-1911) “The history of the exploration of the North is full of heroic spirit and tragedy, voyages and expeditions that were accompanied with the geographical discoveries, the history of scientific studies, organization of a system of stationary and non-stationary observations, and creation of the scientific–technical support service for the Northern Sea Route (NSR) is a history of a fierce battle against the incredibly severe conditions of the Arctic”. The motivation to navigate the Northeast Passage was initially economic. In Russia the idea of a possible seaway connecting the Atlantic and the Pacific was first put forward by the diplomat Gerasimov in 1525. However, Russian settlers and traders on the coasts of the White Sea, the Pomors, had been exploring parts of the route as early as the 11th century. By the 17th century they established a continuous sea route from Arkhangelsk as far east as the mouth of Yenisey. This route, known as Mangazeya seaway, after its eastern terminus, the trade depot of Mangazeya, was an early precursor to the Northern Sea Route. Western parts of the passage were simultaneously being explored by Northern European countries, looking for an alternative seaway to China and India. Although these expeditions failed, new coasts and islands were discovered. Most notable is the 1596 expedition led by Dutch navigator Willem Barentz who discovered Spitsbergen and Bear Island and rounded the north of Novaya Zemlya.

    A HISTORY OF RUSSIAN ACTIVITIES AND THEIR INFLUENCE ON THE INDIGENOUS PEOPLES OF THE RUSSIAN FAR EAST Kazuo Morimoto1 INTRODUCTION How many Japanese have a concrete image if he or she is asked about Siberia? Most Japanese may have vague images of the Trans Siberia Railroad, a vast wilderness with white birch, or the miserable fate of Japanese prisoners of war after the defeat of the Japanese puppet state in Manchuria. As the vast Siberia lies just across the Sea of Japan, the Japanese sometimes consider it as a neighboring country. After the Second World War, this region was in a vulnerable situation because the interests of various big powers such as the United States, Russia and China concentrated attention on Northeast Asia during the Cold War. This geo-political situation led the Japanese people and government to conceive of Siberia as a place very far from Japan. Although they are Japan’s neighbors, most Japanese do not have close feelings toward China and Russia, whereas they do feel close ties to America which is quite far across the Pacific Ocean. Basically, among the Japanese there still remains an attitude of indifference to China and Russia. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Russian economics and politics took steps towards 'perestroika' and their previously closed trade and diplomacy were opened to the Western world. In October 1993, Russian President Yeltsin visited Japan and signed the Tokyo Declaration regarding the Kuril Islands issue and the Economic Declaration for promoting economic investment from Japan. At the meeting of the Keizai Doyukai on 24 July 1997, Japanese Prime Minister, Ryutaro Hashimoto, proposed "Eurasian Diplomacy" which suggested a new Japanese economic strategy towards Russia and the Central Asia with long-term perspective.

Larionov Institute of physical and technical problems of the North, Siberian branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences (IPTPN SB RAS) 3Bratsk state University (FGBOU VPO Brest state University) Abstract Efficiency of wind power stations (WPS) for power supply of settlements of the eastern Arctic area of Russia has been assessed in the article on the example of the Allaikhovsky district of the Sakha Republic (Yakutia), Russia. Authors consider using of wind power as an additive energy source, as the power supply of the district in the near future will remain autonomous, and the diesel power will be basic and a guaranteed source of energy. Therefore, exploitation of wind power could partly reduce the consumption of fossil fuels. The work takes into account the changes of indicators of wind potential during one year, fuel prices, and annual electricity consumption schedule with the aim of financial and different types of wind turbines applying economic assessment for an Arctic settlement isolated from energetic systems. Key words: Renewable energy, WPS, decentralized consumer, autonomous energy source, economic efficiency, payback period In recent time, applying of the renewable energy sources for providing a capable energy supply of distant and arctic regions of the Sakha Republic (Yakutia), that are located on the area of decentralized energy supply with limited period of cargo delivery becomes more actual.

  • Memorial Music As a Way of Comprehension and Dialogue Through Time and Space
    SHS Web of Conferences 97, 01048 (2021) https://doi.org/10.1051/shsconf/20219701048 TEDUVIS 2020 Memorial music as a way of comprehension and dialogue through time and space Aliona Zaozerskikh1*, and Maria Chikhachyova1 1Dmitri Hvorostovsky Siberian State Academy of Arts, Department of Music History, 660049 Krasnoyarsk, Russia Abstract. This article is dedicated to the phenomenon of memorial music. Memoriality is characterized as one of the facets of cultural memory. The methodological basis of the work was made up of works dedicated to the "memory of culture" (J. Assman, P. Nora, J. Lotman) and musical memoriality (T.S. Andruschak, M.N. Lobanova, E.V. Nazaikinsky, O.V. Sokolov, N.L. Sokolvyak, V.N. Kholopova). The results of the study were the identification of thematic complexes, characteristic features and coordinate system of memorial music. Particular attention is paid to the manifestation in memorial music of a certain chronotope, embodied through the principle of "creative dialogue" with the addressee of the memorial dedication. Analytical characteristics of the coordinate system of "music of memory" are given by the authors on the example of memorial music of Siberian composers, composers of the Krasnoyarsk region in particular. 1 Introduction Preserving cultural memory is one of the most important tasks of art, including music. Music is a special way of knowing oneself and the surrounding world, "musical ontology provides a special musical vision of the world and the person in it" [1], and at the same time, a new creative reality, a musical picture of the world, standing independently. The concept of "cultural memory" was developed in the works of philosophers and literary scholars, first of all, J.
