Other sources do not report anything about the Hipposthenes the Megarian, however, the Spartan athlete of the same name, a six-time Olympian winner, is well known, to whom a temple was even dedicated in Sparta, where, according to some prophecy, he was revered on a par with Poseidon (Paus. III. 13. 9; 15. 7; V. 8. 9). The presence of the sanctuary of Poseidon with an oracle on the southern bank of the Horn (Dion. Byz. 9), coupled with the message of Constantine Porphyrogenitus about the participation in the founding of Byzantium, along with the Megarians and Boeotians, also the Lacedaemonians (De themat. II. 1. 43—45 Pertusi) allows us to presumably reconstruct at the end of the VII century B. C. — beginning of the VI century B. C. a certain episode associated with the withdrawal of an additional contingent of colonists to Byzantium, in which the Spartan Hipposthenes was involved. He died or was killed in the course of these events, covering his name with truly immortal glory, for which he received extraordinary honors both in his homeland and in Byzantium.","PeriodicalId":43742,"journal":{"name":"Rossiiskaya Istoriya","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80876495","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methodologically, the research is based on the theory of the dialogue of cultures, which is necessary for understanding and evaluating the current stage of Russian-Armenian relations, understanding the role of interethnic and interreligious cooperation of both states in the post-Soviet space. The study revealed a significant similarity in the fate of the Armenian and Russian churches in the context of the unfolding anti-religious policy during the 1920s and 1930s, which was reflected in the reduction of dioceses, the closure of churches, the arrests of clergy, the emergence of church renewal structures both in the Soviet Russia and in Soviet Armenia. Both churches have gone through the stage of temporary absence of patriarchal administration; Armenian dioceses in the Soviet Russia and Orthodox churches in the Armenian SSR have actually ceased their activities. It is established which events of 1944—1945. they contributed to the resumption of inter-church ties lost in previous decades.","PeriodicalId":43742,"journal":{"name":"Rossiiskaya Istoriya","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73869708","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It was written at the end of the 2nd century in Alexandria and addressed to educated and wealthy young people who feared that they would not be able to save if they did not give up their earthly riches. Clement argued that Jesus did not exclude the rich from the Heavenly Kingdom, but gave instructions on how the rich should act in order to achieve salvation. Poverty in itself is not a virtue, and money can serve good purposes. The rich should practice detachment from wealth and simplicity of life, and in addition, give alms; the poor have special spiritual gifts, and their prayers protect a rich person from temptation in this world. Clement actively used Stoic and Middle Platonic concepts and terms, but attempts to combine the ancient philosophical tradition and the Old Testament doctrine of redemptive alms led to contradictions in his teaching.","PeriodicalId":43742,"journal":{"name":"Rossiiskaya Istoriya","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83105919","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The paper identifies the following forms of interaction between the editorial board and its readers: publication of letters with stories about family, favorite toys, travels, etc.; children’s questions and answers addressed to each other; entertaining tasks and their solutions; “prize” competitions (drawings, opinion essays), followed by sending out prize books and publication of winners’ names; questionnaires; personal appeals. The editorial board declared “developing the ability of children to express their thoughts and feelings correctly and coherently” as the aim of the column. The “answers and advice” section helped children to improve their writing skills; the framework provided a certain canon for communication. Being interactive, “Mailbox” stimulated interest in the magazine, attracted readers and increased the number of regular subscribers.
