Most of his friends and scholarly contacts were Polish, which also was in line with his numerous publications concerning Polish cultural traditions. However, Jelinek also had significant knowledge of the cultural, political, and social life in other Slavic areas, which he utilized as the editor of «Slovanský sbornik» (Slavic Proceedings), a journal focused on all Slavic areas (published in 1881, 1883–1887). In this article, we demonstrate that, mostly at the beginning of Jelinek’s career, Russian topics also appeared in his texts, mainly Russian literature, culture, theater, and the issue of the beginning of Russian-Czech contacts. He published these texts primarily after his first visit to Russia in 1877. In the 1870s, the retired Russian officer Nikolaj M. Yendogurov had a significant influence on him, helping him to understand some Slavic issues and to perfect his knowledge of Russian. Starting from the 1890s, he expressed his opinions regarding the Russian-Polish conflict in several texts. There, he disagreed with the Russification of the Polish cultural environment and drew attention to the language rights of the Polish people. However, his works were not anti-Russian in character, and he expressed appreciation for Russian culture. The issue of Russian-Polish relations also appears in his literary prose works, e.g. in the novel «Motýlek z Norske pohadky» (The Butterfly from the Norwegian Fairytale).

In the course of three experiments, firstly, formal distinctions were found between the list and the corresponding copies from 8 contrasting sub-corpora, them being: 11 th –14 th century copies of the May Menaea, other months’ Minaea, Sticheraria, Gospels, The Book of Psalms, chronicles, the Apostolos, and the Parenesis of Ephrem the Syrian; the last two appear to be the most similar to the list. Secondly, using Log-Likelihood, TF*ICTF' and Weirdness statistical tools, statistically meaningful words were found out, and a partial overlap in the forms under study appeared between the texts of Kirill and several of the sub-corpora. Thirdly, by comparing ranks of each of the forms, the closeness of the Tolstoy Collection texts and sub-corpora of different genres was estimated, and it was shown that original sermons of Kirill of Turov and translations of the teaching sermons of Ephrem the Syrian and of the Apostolos are closest to each other in terms of statistical significance of 15 most frequent forms. For the first time, the configurations of the most significant lexemes in the sub-corpora were found out. Also for the first time, their list was found to be similar in the sub-corpora of Kirill of Turov’s sermons and of the Apostolos, as well as (partially) of the Parenesis, The Book of Psalms and the chronicles. High-rank units in the sermons of Kirill of Turov ( нъ , о , бо , съ ) were described in terms of linguistics, of genre and style, and of discursive pragmatics. The work was made using the transcriptions from the historical corpus “Manuscript” (manuscripts.ru).

For the first time, the lexical-semantic group of kinship terms in the Krashovani dialects from the Slavic-speaking village of Cara șova and the Romanian-speaking village of Iabalcea is being analysed in a comparative perspective as two separate linguistic codes which “ serve ” the same local culture. The main goal of the research was to investigate patterns of borrowing mechanisms which could link lexical (sub) systems of spiritual culture under the conditions of intimate language contact in symbiotic communities. It will be shown that, in such situations, the equivalent translation becomes relevant as a specific strategy of linguistic code interrelationships. Even though kinship terminology in closely contacting dialects has the potential to help linguists trace back the socio-historical conditions and outcomes of language contact (such as marriage patterns), linguistic methods have their limitations in the case of poorly documented vernaculars. These limitations could be overcome by compiling more data on “isocontacting” communities and, possibly, by analysing this data using quantitative tools.

{"title":"The Female Tonsure and Female Monasticism in Old Russia and the Balkans","authors":"T. Afanasyeva, T. Leber","doi":"10.31168/2305-6754.2020.9.1.3","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.31168/2305-6754.2020.9.1.3","url":null,"abstract":"This paper describes a rare rite of female tonsure that is known from five Slavonic Euchologia (Trebnik) of the 13th–16th centuries and attempts to investigate on the basis of historical sources how this rite of tonsure could be applied in the Balkans and in Early Russia. N. F. Krasnosel′tsev suggested that this tonsure was of a very ancient origin and was intended for tonsuring virgins who took the vow of celibacy. The Greek original of this rite is preserved only in one known Euchologion Coisl.213 (1027). We argue that its Slavonic translation is of a Serbian origin and was made not earlier than in the 13thcentury, but that it apparently was not used in the Balkans afterwards. In Early Russia this rite is scantily attested in written sources — since the 14thcentury its content was shortened and influenced by the later practice of tonsure. However, historical sources prove that tonsuring of virgins was very common in Kievan Rus′ with its urban convents, while it was practically unknown in the Balkans. In medieval Bulgaria and Serbia there were recorded cases of widows tonsured without entering the monastery. It is difficult to say whether before the end of 14th century any fully developed female monastic communities existed in this region in the form in which they are known in Rus′. Probably, the rite of tonsure of virgins in Old Russia was very close to the rite from the manuscript Gilf.21 , though, most likely, it did not contain the final part — the prayer for the removal of the veil ( kukol' ), as in Coisl.213 .

{"title":"Russia’s Quest for the “Historical Jesus”: Tolstoy and Dostoevsky vs. Strauss","authors":"Protoiereus Georgy Orekhanov, Iereus Alexey Andreev","doi":"10.31168/2305-6754.2020.9.1.9","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.31168/2305-6754.2020.9.1.9","url":null,"abstract":"The works of theologian David Friedrich Strauss are significant milestones in the development of an academic project known as the “Quest for the Historical Jesus”. As part of the Quest, various researchers tried to reconstruct the life, teachings, and personality of Jesus of Nazareth using historical and philological methods, that is, operating from the standpoint of strict positivism. The purpose of this article is to show that the works of Strauss had a significant impact on the logic and evolution of the religious quests of Leo Tolstoy and Fyodor Dostoevsky. Tolstoy became acquainted with Strauss's ideas around the late 1870s, in a period of intensive intellectual search, which eventually led him to an acute religious crisis and rejection of the official church view on Christianity. The article shows that the writer was ultimately compelled to reject the ideas of Strauss and Renan. At the same time, some elements of Strauss's theory were so close to Tolstoy that these ideas had a definite influence on his basic religious conception. Dostoevsky had the opportunity to become acquainted with the ideas of Strauss in the Petrashevsky Circle. This experience led to a deep life crisis on Dostoevsky's part, too. On the one hand, the writer had a negative view of ideas associated with the works of Strauss and Renan. On the other hand, all of Dostoevsky’s artistic work is directly related to his overcoming the influence of the “Strauss-Renan narrative”, which itself is evidence of the evolution of the writer’s views on faith and religion.

Regardless of whom the researchers were inclined to consider as the instigator of the feud, most of their studies were based on the sources of Josephite origin. The present paper is an attempt to look at the complex relationship of the Volokolamsk hegumen with the Novgorod archbishop as presented in the Life of St. Serapion. A preliminary analysis of the composition of the text shows its heterogeneity: the Life contains both passages with sharp attacks on Joseph Volotsky, and a generally quite correct account of his reconciliation with Serapion. Most of the article is devoted to the question of how Archbishop Serapion himself and his supporters were inclined to evaluate the actions of Joseph Volotsky, which were directed squarely against the Novgorod archbishop and ended with his forcible removal from the bishop’s see at the behest of the Grand Prince. Consideration of this issue essentially allows us to conclude that the system of self-justification of the Novgorod archbishop in the text of his Life was quite deliberate and consistent and was based primarily on his ideas about the bishop's prerogatives in relation to the Volokolamsk hegumen subordinate to his authority.

Topics discussed include the chronology of the terms’ usage, different ways in which they were being used, relations of ‘Sclavinia’ and ‘Sclavoarchontia’ with the Empire, their appearance and disappearance and the political processes connected with it, as well as the analysis of the existing interpretations. The first part mostly discusses chronology and some existing hypotheses. The second (and the main) part analyses the way these terms were used and tries to define them. The hypothesis presented connects these terms with the re-establishing of imperial authority in the Balkans, marked in the sources by replacing the term ‘Slavic nations’, which had been used until the late 8th century to denote the independent Balkan Slavic societies and their lands. The Empire lacked the capacity for direct subjugation of the independent Slavic communities and was forced to rely on complicated measures including colonization and ensuring Slav cooperation in the process. In the themes where the Empire had enough power, Slavic communities were organized as ‘Sclavoarchontias’, who received archons from the strategos, paid collective tribute and served as symahoi, but kept some inner autonomy. The Empire also tended to ensure the cooperation of Slavic communities around themes by granting titles and subsidies to some powerful Slavic leaders, which led to the creation of client states known as ‘Sclavinias’. They were not part of the thematic system, they had their native and hereditary leaders recognized and affirmed by the emperor by titles and seals and act as imperial allies. A prototype of both had appeared at the end of the 7th century, but only when relations of such types had multiplied after Stauracius’ expedition in 783, corresponding generic terms appeared and became regular.

Calendrical traditions and vocabulary of the traditional culture of the Ukrainians in Bosnia and Herzegovina are of great interest for contact linguistic and ethnolinguistic studies, since they are one of the few examples of the Eastern Slavic enclave surrounded by Southern Slavs. Ukrainian customs survive, despite more than a century of isolated existence among South Slavic neighbours, and become an important marker of the minority's cultural identity in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The influence of the local Christian traditions is not very strong, being most evident in the language sphere in borrowed realia. Certain customs are shown to be typologically common to the Western Ukrainian and South Slavic traditions, with this commonality dating back to before the migration of Ukrainians to the Balkans.
