The publication is accompanied by a study of the reasons for their relationship and of the initial stage of their spiritual rapprochement. Rozanov and Aleksandrov started their correspondence in 1892, both being devoted followers of the outstanding Russian religiousthinker Konstantin Leontiev and admirers of his intellectual heritage. Over time, their relationship changed significantly, but they maintained personal contacts until Rozanov’s death. Mainly thanks to Aleksandrov, the influential highranking official and patron of young neo-Slavophile talents, Terty Filippov, showed interest in Rozanov, wo then was still little known in Russian intellectual circles and served as an inconspicuous teacher in the provincial town of Bely (Smolensk province). Having acquired the support of their high-ranking patron, Aleksandrov and Rozanov considered 1892 to be a turning point for their social status: Aleksandrov was appointed chief editor of the journal Russkoe Obozrenie in Moscow, while Rozanov obtained the opportunity to move to St. Petersburg when Filippov promised to hire him for a small position in the State Control, where Filippov was the chief. The recently found unknown archival drafts of letters from Vassily Rozanov to Filippov and Filippov’s letters back to Rozanov (from the collection of the Russian State Archive of Literature and Art) and also excerpts from Filippov's diary of 1892 (in the possession of the Russian State Historical Archive) are published and analyzed here. Changes in Rozanov’s views on some aspects of the philosophical work of Konstanstin Leontiev are also investigated.","PeriodicalId":426957,"journal":{"name":"Texts and History: Journal of Philological, Historical and Cultural Texts and History Studies","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115362508","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Shishkov’s linguistic views, the question of their sources has not yet been resolved. This article considers Shishkov’s views on language in the context of the cultural atmosphere in the Naval Cadet Corps in St. Petersburg. The upbringing of future marine officers was strongly influenced by the English naval science, which, apparently, left its mark on the cultural life of the Corps. In the last quarter of the 18th century, the Corps was dominated not by the Gallomania inherent in Russian high society, but by traditionalist views. An example of such traditionalism is the attitude of the Corps inspector V. V. Nikitin and his assistant P. I. Suvorov, who taught mathematics and a number of other disciplines, toward language. They put their linguistic views into practice in their two textbooks on mathematics — Euclidean elements and Two books of trigonometry where they translated all mathematical terminology into Russian. Moreover, they expounded their views in the introduction to the Euclidean elements. Based on the materials of the Russian State Naval Archive, the article traces the complex publishing history of these textbooks and their further fate. For over ten years, from the first half of the 1780s to the mid-1790s, Nikitin and Suvorov were spreading their linguistic views through their math textbooks and while teaching cadets. Shishkov, who served and taught at the Naval Cadet Corps in the 1770–1780s, was undoubtedly familiar with these views. Some features of his point of view on language suggest that it could be influenced by the linguistic views of his colleagues from the Naval Cadet Corps.","PeriodicalId":426957,"journal":{"name":"Texts and History: Journal of Philological, Historical and Cultural Texts and History Studies","volume":"156 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122611162","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Did the Native Soil Movement Really Exist? (Polemical Notes)","authors":"V. A. Fateev","doi":"10.31860/2712-7591-2020-3-32-62","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.31860/2712-7591-2020-3-32-62","url":null,"abstract":"This article deals with ideological and aesthetic foundations of the 19th-century literary movement which was later called Pochvennichestvo (Native Soil). Some scholars have suggested that the three principal figures of this movement — Fyodor Dostoevsky, Apollon Grigoryev and Nikolay Strakhov — were so different in their views that it is more reasonable to investigate the ideas of each of them separately. V. N. Zakharov, an outstanding expert on Dostoevsky, asserted in his article “Pochvennichestvo in Russian Literature: Metaphor as a Mythologeme” (2012) that the only one who truly lived up to the Native Soil principles was Dostoevsky, who set forth the program of the new movement in the Announcement about the subscription to the journal Vremya in 1860. According to Zakharov, unlike the other, “false”, members of the movement, who were just authors of Vremya, Dostoevsky widely used the metaphor pochva (soil) as a mythologeme in this article and in his subsequent works. In fact, Zakharov shared the opinion that there was a significant difference in the views of these writers. In this case, however, the very existence of the Pochvennichestvo as a single movement can be questioned. The present article argues that the term pochva was no less frequently employed by the other leading representatives of the movement and that the use of this mythologeme is not the only indication of their adherence to it. Although Dostoevsky, Grigoryev and Strakhov had serious ideological divergences, their philosophical and aesthetic views were much closer. The Native Soil writers shared a positive attitude towards spiritual independence and a national orientation of Russian literature. All of them relied on the organic essence of life and creativity. They highly appreciated the importance of Pushkin and denied excessive theorizing, aristocratic and nihilistic tendencies. The article shows how the Native Soil principles were developed by Dostoevsky, Grigoryev and Strakhov during their collaboration in the journals Vremya and Epokha and unfolded later in the journal Zarya, edited by Strakhov, and in the journal Grazhdanin, edited by Dostoevsky, as well as in Dostoevsky’s famous Pushkin Speech","PeriodicalId":426957,"journal":{"name":"Texts and History: Journal of Philological, Historical and Cultural Texts and History Studies","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116481726","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

He often cited biblical excerpts not in the redaction intended for reading but in the one used at church services. This was natural for a hereditary priest who had extensive liturgical practice. Avvakum also referred to apocryphal legends. In the “Book of Conversations”, denouncing moral decline, he cited the parable of the prophet Jeremiah, who in the daytime walked around Jerusalem with a burning candle in a fruitless search for a man. The parable is close to the Coptic translation of the apocrypha ”Chronicle of the Prophet Jeremiah”, made from the Greek original. The Old Slavic translation of this apocrypha from Greek (“Paralipomena Jeremiah”) is known in two redactions. However, this episode is not found in any of them. Obviously, Avvakum knew some other, possibly oral, intermediate source.","PeriodicalId":426957,"journal":{"name":"Texts and History: Journal of Philological, Historical and Cultural Texts and History Studies","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132566204","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It circulated among many European nations in the form of a spiritual verse, a narrative, a prayer, or an incantation. Starting with the fundamental work of A. N. Veselovsky, this story has been an important subject of comparative research up to the present day. The oldest manuscripts with texts related to it are of Italian origin and date back to the 14th and 15th centuries. The article presents features of the Italian tradition of the apocryphon in texts preserved in these early manuscripts and in more recent folklore recordings. In Italy, the “Dream of the Virgin” existed in the context of various poetic texts about the Passion of Christ and the Lament of the Virgin Mary. The development of Italian volgare literature on the theme of the Passion is associated with the cult of the Passion of Christ, which was extremely widespread in the 13th and 14th centuries. Some details in the Italian texts suggest that the motif of the Virgin Mary’s dream about the Passion possibly originated in the tradition of the Holy Land related to the Mount of Olives and Gethsemane","PeriodicalId":426957,"journal":{"name":"Texts and History: Journal of Philological, Historical and Cultural Texts and History Studies","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116950103","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The research is based on materials from the field ethnographic study of the territory of the Mikhailovsky rural settlement in the Olonetsky District of the Republic of Karelia, which was performed in May 2009. The research focuses on one case study: changes in material culture after the closure of a local fur farm (Zverosovkhoz) in the post-Soviet period. The transition from the use of equipment in a closed enterprise to its public and personal use, along with the renewal of a traditional rural way of life (traditional fishing and subsistence livestock production practices), led to the perception of this equipment (in particular, the reserves of metal wire mesh that was previously used in making animal cages) as a new environment - a source of materials for traditional rural activities. We record the use of these resources in fishing, livestock production, housekeeping, as well as in structuring (partitioning with fences) and improvement (cleaning) of public spaces. As a result, the equipment from the fur farm influences the emergence of a specific visual environment, which turns into a material embodiment of the collective memory of the times of the “state farm millionaire” (sovkhozmillioner). Another direction of the renewal of traditional rural ways of life is associated with the actualization of the ethnic identity of the Ludian Karelians and the development of rural and ethnic tourism. These processes have formed a request for objects of material culture that are made of traditional materials. These things are not involved in everyday economic activity but meant to be demonstrated as markers of ethnic and local identity.","PeriodicalId":426957,"journal":{"name":"Texts and History: Journal of Philological, Historical and Cultural Texts and History Studies","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124043005","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
