УТОЧНЕНИЕ К БИОГРАФИИ ДМИТРИЯ ТИМОФЕЕВИЧА БУЦИНСКОГО

The purpose of the article is to clarify the biography of one of the famous revolutionary populists Dmit-ry Timofeevich Butsinsky. The place of his studies after graduating from the Kursk Theological College is studied. The history of the Kursk and Belgorod theological seminaries are studied and compared. The lack of biographical data does not allow to say which of them D.T. Butsinsky studied at after graduating from the Kursk Theological College and before entering Kharkov University. As a result, the author draws a conclusion that there were no such clarification before. The reference sources give different information about the issue, but after a deep analysis, the author can confidently name the D.T. Butsinsky’s place of study after his graduating from the Kursk Theological College.

The Normate: on Disability, Critical Phenomenology, and Merleau-Ponty’s Cézanne

In the essay “Cézanne’s Doubt”, Merleau-Ponty explores the relationship between Paul Cézanne’s art and his embodiment. The doubt in question is ultimately about the meaning of Cézanne’s art in light of his disabilities. Should his disabilities or impairments shape how we interpret his art or should they instead be treated as incidental, as mere biographical data? Although Merleau-Ponty’s essay isn’t intended to be phenomenological, its line of questioning is as much about lived experience as it is about art, art history, and aesthetics. I here offer a reading of “Cézanne’s Doubt” as an exploration of one of the more fundamental issues for phenomenological methodology: the relationship between normality and the normate. I first defend this phenomenological and disability-centric or crip reading of the essay. I then argue that insofar as one takes oneself to be “normal” and insofar as doing so underwrites phenomenological inquiry, the problematic of the normate, not just that of normality, is central to phenomenology.

Письмо З. А. Воскресенской председателю Ленгорисполкома П. С. Попкову с просьбой о продовольственной помощи. 1943 г.

The article analyzes the text of the letter from Zinaida Andreevna Voskresenskaya, wife of Nikolai Alekseevich Voskresensky, a historian of law of the Petrine era, written on March 2, 1943 and addressed to the chairman of the Executive Committee of the Leningrad City Council of Workers’ Deputies Petr Sergeevich Popkov. N. A. Voskresensky (1889–1948) spent many years identifying and systematizing documents and deciphering autographs of the first Russian emperor. Working as a teacher in a Leningrad school, without being member of any scientific community or academic institution, he independently analyzed about 3,500 monuments of the legislation of Peter the Great, studied the legislative process of the Petrine era, and assessed the role of foreign law in its formation. Voskresensky did not interrupt his work even in the days of the siege. Together with his wife, he prepared 80 author’s sheets of texts for printing. The couple survived the first blockade winter thanks to food parcels on behalf of the Leningrad City Executive Committee, scientist’s registration under the category of workers in supply standards, as well as assistance from the Food Commission of the Military Council of the Leningrad Front, by decision of which he received academic rations in a special store. The activities of the Food Commission and the scale of assistance to Leningraders in the winter of 1942 have been assessed in recent historiography, but the events of 1943 have not yet been covered by scientific literature. The published letter is the second known petition sent by the Voskresenskys to P. S. Popkov. It has been found in the fond of the Main Department of Trade of the Leningrad City Executive Committee in the Central State Archive of St. Petersburg. Unlike the first letter published by N. A. Lomagin in 2017, the decision on which was made in March 1942 by the Food Commission, apparently collegially, the instruction to provide food assistance to the Voskresensky family following this second letter was given personally by the head of the Trade Department of the Leningrad City Executive Committee I. A. Andreenko in March 1943. Anthropological approach has led to the use of biographical method. When preparing the documentary publication, various methods of source criticism, historical-comparative and problem-chronological methods have also been used. The publication of the letter of Z. A. Voskresenskaya along with commentary clarifies some biographical data on N. A. Voskresensky and completes the picture of food supply of scientists after the breaking of the blockade of Leningrad.

Социально-демографический портрет политкаторжан поколения «революционного перелома» начала XX века

Study is devoted to analysis of social and demographic features of generation of the revolutionary turning point, which took an active part in the events of all-Russian revolutionary movement at the beginning of XXth century. The actuality of work is determined by necessity of study image of the left radical part of young peoples borned in 1890s. The biggest part of domestic and foreign researchers studying the similar issues take their attention on representatives of some parties or national groups, while the study of revolutionary movement through the "generational" section is resting poorly explored. According to author`s viewpoint using of generational approach will give possibility possible to deeply penetrate into the studying era, to understand the internal world and reasons of radicalization of moods of revolutionary turning point generation, which is the purpose of this study. The main source for writing the article was the biographical directory of the All-Union Society of Political Prisoners and Exiles, composed from personal profiles. The biographical data of participants in revolutionary movement formed basis for creation database table which gave possibility to analyze their main sociographic features. In order of study motivations for joining revolutionary organizations and reasons for radicalization of moods of young peoples, were studied the memories and autobiographies of political prisoners, preserved in the funds of the State Archive of the Russian Federation (GARF). In context of specific aim of study the authors were guided in the same time by historical-comparative, retrospective, and quantitative methods. In result of analysis of the personalized electronic database, the authors made some conclusions. Firstly it was distincted the heterogeneous national composition of the revolutionaries in which largest share was represented by Jews. Secondly it was shown that largest part of studied group joined in revolutionary movement at the age of 15-17 and in this context it wasn`t surprising that the high point of their revolutionary activity felt on years of the first Russian revolution. Thirdly, the analysis of the structure of class origin indicates about predominance of people from the petty-bourgeois class, while the children from peasant families felt under the influence of revolutionary ideas, as a rule, already in the cities. The educative level of young revolutionaries was low, but their radicalism non-rarely served as reason for expulsion from educational institution. Big part of young people was spontaneously involved to revolutionary movement, thus expressing their dissatisfaction by existing regime.

«Проклятий антихрист»: стереотипізація єврейської ідентичності в романі «Михайло Чарнышенко, или Малороссия восемьдесят лет назад» П. Куліша

The article aims to study the representation of Jewish stereotypes in P. Kulish’s first novel “Mykhailo Charnyshenko, or Little Russia Eighty Years ago” (written – 1842, printed – 1843) in the characterof the Cossack Colonel Anton Kryzhanovsky. The literary image is considered in a three-dimensional plane: the attitude towards the Jewish converts during the events described by the writer in the 2nd half of the 18th century, as well as information known from historical sources and new facts from modern sources about Colonel A. Kryzhanovsky, and, finally, correspondence of historical truth with modeling of the literary image in the novel “Mykhailo Charnyshenko, or Little Russia Eighty Years ago”. The article traces how the writer used the historical sources known to him and how the widespread ideas about the Jews of that time found a place in his novel. Colonel Anton Kryzhanovsky, who is the only prototype of a real historical person in P.Kulish’s novel, is devastatingly described in the anonymous treatise “History of Ruthenians or Little Russia” and fully corresponds to the literary image in the text of the novel. The article shows how P. Kulish, using the completely false information of the “History of Ruthenians or Little Russia”, repeats the factual errors of the treatise author, since its text combines information about the conversion of Anton Kryzhanovsky’s father with the historical fact of the recruitment of Ukrainian “Holsteinians” by Colonel Anton Kryzhanovsky. However, the same inaccuracy can be traced in the works of Ukrainian scientists of the 19th century, for example, the historian-genealogist O. Lazarevsky and the historian D. Miller. The paradox of Kryzhanovsky’s image in the novel lies in the fact that being a consolidating character for others and an impetus for the unfolding of events, he almost always remains aloof as if deliberately emphasizing his mysteriousness and insidiousness, which are reinforced by a characteristic portrait. P. Kulish ignores the real history of the conversion of Jews in the Cossacks when with a change of religion yesterday’s Jew became a “Cossack’s friend” and had all the prospects for successful integration. In his first novel, P. Kulish produces the mythologeme of a Jewish convert, who selfishly and deliberately integrates into the Ukrainian Cossack community and gradually emancipates himself to the extent that he obtains a high military position thanks to the patronage of the Russian Emperor Peter III and irreparably harms the Cossacks, who are trying to balance thoughts about the glorious past and the present colonial time. However, this author’s position is at odds with real historical facts, including biographical data about Cossack colonel Anton Kryzhanovsky.

MINSK ADDRESSEES OF LESIA UKRAINKA

The article highlights the archival materials of the late XIX – early XX century, the epistolary heritage of Lesia Ukrainka of the «Minsk» period, and memoirs about her Belarusian addressee, an artist Viera Alexandrova. The author has collected materials about Larysa Kosach-Kvitka’s correspondents from the circle of Serhii Merzhynskyi’s relatives and friends: Konstantin Merzhynskyi, Serhii Eliasberg, Viera Alexandrova, and Yevhenii Chirikov. The case study focuses on the digitized documents of that period, which are now stored in the National Historical Archive of Belarus (Minsk) and the Russian State Historical Archive (St. Petersburg), and previously published record-keeping books of the Russian Empire (lists of nobles and landowners of the Minsk province, ranks of state control of the country in the early XX century). The little-known biographical data of the writer's acquaintances, with whom she contacted in person in Minsk and corresponded after returning from Belarus, have been supplemented with details. The circumstances and nature of Lesia Ukrainka's communication with each of these addressees are clarified, adding some hues to their portraits. The article provides brief information about the future fate of the playwright's Minsk correspondents. The author sheds light on the causes of insufficient study of this issue in the Soviet period by stating that they are partly connected with the noble origin of the addressees or with their civil position after the October coup of 1917, in particular, regarding the Merzhynskyi and Chirikov families. The key findings of the research argue the need for further biography study of Lesia Ukrainka's correspondents, the results of which will be beneficial for the compilers of the encyclopedia of the writer, the compilation of which was discussed at the events devoted to the 150th anniversary of the playwright's birth.

An Assessment of the Scope of Non- and Minimally-Invasive Approaches Coupled with Modern Analytics to Enhance Biographic Data Retrieval from Mummies

Социальный портрет начальников жандармского управления в Иркутской губернии

Based on the analysis of biographical data, a social portrait of all the heads of the gendarmerie department in the Irkutsk province was compiled. The main sources for the study were the formularies and service records of gendarmerie officers, orders for the Gendarmerie Corps, legislative acts of the central government. The conclusion is made that by the beginning of the 20th century the status of this department in the system of the gendarmerie department and the prestige of the position of the head of this department had increased.

Measuring preservice teachers' ethnocentrism: A South African case study

High degrees of ethnocentrism indicate intolerance towards that which is not one's own. When displayed by teachers towards learners, such attitudes may have detrimental effects on learner performance and hinder transformation in South African classrooms. Using Vygotskian sociocultural theory of human learning as a theoretical framework, this quantitative case study reports on the outcome of the electronically administered Generalised Ethnocentrism survey that measured 1,164 preservice teachers' ethnocentrism at a private higher education institution. Apart from providing biographical data, respondents answered 22 statements on a 5-point Likert-type scale about their beliefs pertaining to their own and others' culture, customs, and values. Results showed that preservice teachers manifest varying degrees of ethnocentrism but that those who attended multicultural schools scored significantly lower on the ethnocentrism scale than those who attended mono-ethnic schools. Respondents in the last stretch of their studies also obtained lower scores on the GENE scale than first and second years. This would suggest that greater exposure to social diversity and interaction across cultures plays a fundamental role in shaping ethnocentric beliefs and attitudes. An unexpected finding was that the instrument did not provide similar results as found in several studies, thus creating misgivings about its applicability in a context in which a minority ethnic grouping no longer held power. Policy makers and teacher educators should consider interventions to create more explicit and purposeful opportunities for preservice teachers to gain multicultural exposure and develop cultural competence. Assisting prospective teachers to identify their own ethnocentrism and knowing how to counter the many prevailing ideologies that promote, however inadvertently, ethnocentrism would prepare them for the realities of their future classroom and equip them to act as agents of change.

The Phenomenon of the 18th Century Institutional Printing House of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania: The Case of the Franciscans

Many of the printing houses in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania that operated during the 17th-18th centuries belonged to institutions the biggest part of which consisted of Catholic monk monasteries. Despite belonging to one group, the development path of each printing house and its contribution to book culture has unique features. Of the four institutional prin­ting houses operating in the 18th century in Vilnius, the printing house of the Franciscan Conventuals Monastery was the first to be closed and its operations terminated. The purpose of the article is to identify the following causes behind the issues and eventual closure of this printing house. Based on the expenses and income book of this printing house for the period 1752–1769 (it is preserved at the Department of Manuscripts of Vilnius University Library,) this paper examines various aspects of the Vilnius Franciscan Conventuals monastery printing house: funds, sources of equipment and paper, building location, relations with employees and hired craftsmen, orders, sources of income, profitability. In order to better understand the specificity of the institutional press, an effort was made to establish a link between the research outcome and the wider context by addressing the question of the impact of both the society of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and the Franciscan Order itself on the destiny of the printing house. In addition, the book of expenses and income reveals new biographical data about Vilnius engraver Franciszek Balcewicz.

Psychoanalytic and Existentialist Versions of Don Juanism: Lesia Ukrainka’s The Stone Host

The article substantiates the necessity of psychoanalytical and existential methodology in interpreting Lesia Ukrainka’s drama Kaminnyi hospodar (1912; The Stone Host), including the works of José Ortega y Gasset and Miguel de Unamuno on Don Quixote, Albert Camus on absurd characters (The Myth of Sisyphus. Essay on the Absurd), and Jacques Lacan’s The Mirror Stage. Biographical data testify to the critical attitude of the writer to world treatments of the legend. Her challenge to tradition was bold and conscious. It is regarded that the main point of Lesia Ukrainka’s polemics with tradition concerns Don Juan apologetics, introduced by romantics and developed by modernists. Exploring Don Juan’s psychological makeup provides the opportunity to show that all participants of the legend have become victims of Don Juan apologetics (that distinguish the tragic fi nale of the story). The Don Juan myth has played an integral role in the image of the Person (social mask) being accepted by characters as a trustful image of the Self. Interpretation of the Mirror Image in The Stone Host and its crucial role in the final scene allows for justifying that the mirror serves the narcissistic characters’ admiration of themselves and shows them not only an attractive appearance but an ideal version of the Self, created by myth.

PROFESSOR V.D. DIMITRIEV – ORGANIZER OF HISTORICAL EDUCATION AND SCIENCE

The article is dedicated to a prominent scientist, public figure and administrator, Doctor of Historical Sciences Vasily Dimitrievich Dimitriev. The article traces the path of his formation as a researcher, teacher, organizer of historical education and science. The professor’s main biographical data, scientific problems developed by him are analyzed. The stages of his work at the Chuvash Research Institute of Language, Literature and History and I.N. Ulianov Chuvash State University are determined. Thanks to his brilliant analytical abilities, Vasily Dimitrievich became a specialist in Russian history, but also in ethnography, source studies and related scientific disciplines. The scientist created a whole galaxy of followers. He is considered as their teacher by 10 doctors and 40 candidates of sciences, in whose training he participated. Among the students who defended their dissertations in the last years of the scientist’s life were A.A. Chibis on the theme “Monasteries of the Right Bank of the Kazan Land in the Second Half of the XVI – First Half of the XVIII Centuries: Functioning, Land Ownership and Economy” (2011) and A.K. Kuznetsov on the theme “State Archival Service of the Chuvash Republic: the History of Reorganization and Functioning in 1991–2004” (2011). V.D. Dimitriev’s research is a notable help for historians of the neighboring regions of the Middle Volga region. The scientific heritage of Vasily Dimitrievich will be preserved for many years in the works of his followers and students, historical works and collections of documents. Despite a considerable number of published articles devoted to the scientist’s life, work, his research work, the historian’s scientific archive is valuable, which is stored in the Chuvash State Humanitarian Institute, including more than 200 volumes of various documents from the central and regional archives of the country. V.D. Dimitriev’s personal fund was passed by his will to the State Historical Archive of the Chuvash Republic. Thanks to the efforts of the scientist, the collected array of sources will enable followers to open new pages both in the history of the Middle Volga region and in the biography of the scientist.

MIKHAIL FREIDENBERG AND HIS FAMILY: THE ODESSA TRACE IN RUSSIAN CULTURE

Research traditions that have developed in relation to certain cultural phenomena are often limited by the framework of national cultures, the specifics of the studied personality and its creative activity. At the same time, the cultural and social demands underlying these studies do not actually imply the conversion of the identified cultural values from one national (cultural) tradition to another. Thus, it is unlikely that representatives of border territories, as well as territories that had actual ex-territoriality and freedom to choose cultural identification, can give in to an unambiguous definition of cultural identity. Odessa was good example of it. Here the marginality of the frontier cultural zone created its own unique cultural topos, with its “mixed” identity, for which the territorial, ethnic, cultural and linguistic boundaries were not absolute, were mobile, created conditions for the formation of seemingly contradictory ideas about the “eastern West”, about “imperial Jewishness”, “Jewish Russianity”, etc. For the Jewish citizen of Odessa, the national (Jewish) or imperial (Russian) component played a great role. The internal contradictions that exist in these identification models were either resolved in favor of one of the models, or removed due to the local identification model provided by the immediate environment, which we called the environment. In this article, we would like to show this environmental influence through the personality of Mikhail Filippovich Freidenberg, who is known to historians of science and technology as an inventor, but little known to literary historician (mainly as the father of Olga Mikhailovna Freidenberg and the uncle of Boris Leonidovich Pasternak). In our opinion, the description of the artistic and journalistic, as well as satirical works of Mikhail Freidenberg deserves attention. With his name, the intellectual environment of Odessa at the end of the XIX century takes on a holistic appearance, at the same time exposing the problem of “intellectual crowding” of the imperial province. The phenomenon of the environment is conceptualized by the example of the family of Mikhail Freidenberg and relations with relatives, as well as by describing the influence of this environment on Russian culture in the late XIX – first half of the XX century through the formation of the personalities of Olga Freidenberg and Boris Pasternak. It is important to overcome disciplinary boundaries and show how the environment promotes the realization of creative opportunities and how it sets these opportunities. We do it based on the available biographical data, memoirs, diaries and other documents.

At the Crossroad of Confessions

The focus of my study is a mid-seventeenth-century Latin manuscript prayer book. Its most basic characteristics should attract the attention of scholars of the period since it was compiled by a Lutheran married couple from Prešov for their individual religious practice. In examining the prayer book, I was able to identify the basic source of the manuscript, which was previously unknown to researchers: the compendium of the German Lutheran author Philipp Kegel. The manuscript follows the structure of Kegel’s volume and also extracts a number of texts from the German author’s work, which mainly collects the writings of medieval church fathers. In addition to Kegel, I have also been able to identify a few other sources; mainly the writings of Lutheran authors from Germany (Johann Arndt, Johann Gerhardt, Johann Rist, and Johann Michael Dilherr). I give a description of the physical characteristics of the manuscript, its illustrations, the hymns that accompany the prayers, and the copying hands. I will also attempt to identify the latter more precisely. The first compilers of the manuscript were Andreas Glosius and his wife Catharina Musoniana from Prešov. I also organize the biographical data we have about their life and will correct the certainly erroneous provenance of Andreas Glosius, whose name appears in the context of several important contemporary manuscripts, including the gradual of Prešov. In the last part of my paper, I will also show how well known and popular Philipp Kegel’s work was in the early modern Kingdom of Hungary. This is necessary because, although the data show that there was a very lively reception of Philipp Kegel’s work in Hungary, previous scholars have only tangentially dealt with the Hungarian presence of his work.

Новые данные о некоторых российских герпетологах. Сообщение 3

The Unidentified Skeletal Collection of Capuchos Cemetery (Santarém) housed at the University of Coimbra

The aim of this article is to present to the scientific and academic community the Unidentified Skeletal Collection of the Capuchos Cemetery. The skeletons, of contemporary individuals, were collected from the same cemetery as those of the 21st Century Identified Skeletal Collection, but their identification is unknown. The collection is composed of 73 individuals, of which 68 are adults of both sexes (34 females, 33 males, and one individual of unknown sex) and five are non-adults. The skeletons are reasonably preserved although several are incomplete as result of taphonomic changes during inhumations, but also due to the experimental research made so far. Most of the adult individuals present nonmetric characters, being the scapular notch the most frequent. Regarding the osteopathology, it was observed that the majority of adult individuals have pathological changes, with degenerative pathology being the most frequent. In addition, some individual exhibit medical devices and/or signs of chirurgical procedures.
 The Unidentified Skeletal Collection of the Capuchos Cemetery is an osteological collection that, although not containing individual biographical data, has contributed to teaching and research in Biological and Forensic Anthropology in subjects such as osteology, morphology, biological profile, paleopathology, cremains, and the development of new methods.
