Book review “N.I. Vorobyev. Kazan Tatars. Kazan: Tatgosizdat, 1953”
Get PDFThe work under review is devoted to the characteristics of the material culture of the Kazan Tatars of the late 19th – early 20th centuries. The author set himself the task to identify the main elements of the Kazan Tatars’ material culture, trace the history of its formation, and analyse its characteristic territorial and class differences. The work is based on the monograph of the same author, Material Culture of the Kazan Tatars, published in 1930. Since that time, the author has accumulated new material, critically revised previous conclusions, and essentially produced a new work (cit.: Smirnov A.P. (1954) N.I. Vorobyev. The Kazan Tatars. Tatgosizdat, Kazan, 1953. Sovetskaya etnografiya [Soviet Ethnography]. No. 3: 168–172. (In Russ.))
The Artist’s Mission During the Russo-Turkish War of 1828–1829: Documentary Landscapes by M.N. Vorobyev
Get PDFThe artist Maxim Nikiforovich Vorobyev (1787–1855) possessed a unique gift for combining his creative work with public service, dedicating himself fully to fulfilling tasks and the mission of serving his homeland. Within the scope of the research article, the author examines his role in the military expedition of 1828–1829, where M.N. Vorobyev not only created sketches and paintings at the behest of Emperor Nicholas I and his court but also actively participated in visualizing military and technological innovations. That military expedition became the foundation for several significant works by the artist, including The Seashore Near Varna (1829), View of the Military Telegraph Near Varna (1829), and The Explosion of Varna (1828), which are rarely mentioned in contemporary literature for various reasons. In 1828–1829, as an experienced artist who had participated in multiple military campaigns and diplomatic expeditions, he was seconded to the staff of the Black Sea Fleet and participated in the Russo-Turkish War as an artist and chronicler. His visual reports and sketches often contained hidden information understood only by a narrow circle of high-ranking officials. Those works served as encrypted messages where artistic value intertwined with diplomatic significance. In this study, the author proposes reconstructing the historical context to deepen understanding of the iconography of M.N. Vorobyev’s series of landscape paintings, created as a visual chronicle of the events of the Russo-Turkish War of 1828–1829
Artistic and figurative sketches by L.M. Pozdeeva from expeditions with N.I. Vorobyev
Get PDFThe article analyses expedition sketches of professional artist Lyudmila Mikhailovna Pozdeeva from the collections of the National Museum of the Republic of Tatarstan and the “Miraskhane” Written Heritage Center of G. Ibragimov Institute of Language, Literature and Art of the Republic of Tatarstan Academy of Sciences, which were made by the master during the expeditions of 1926 and 1927 under the leadership of N. I. Vorobyev. Costume complexes of Tatars of different subethnic and ethnographic groups are analysed. Particular attention is paid to the scientific component of L. M. Pozdeeva’s work, the consistency of the sketches to written sources, museum materials and expedition photographs. The author of the article identified nine watercolours and one graphite pencil sketch, which depict the clothes of men and women of different ages. The pieces were made in the Chelny, Chistopol, Sviyazhsk, and Tetyush cantons, in settlements such as Nizhneye Bishevo, Kainly, Akbulatovo, Stary Tatarsky Adam, Molkeevo, Stary Kurbash, and Bakorchi (Bakrchi). Some images are duplicated by photographs, which became the visual accompaniment to the texts of N.I. Vorobyev’s academic publications. The sketches by L.M. Pozdeeva found by the author of the article fully correspond to the photographic images, which is evidence of the precise reproduction of what she saw during the expeditions. The artist chose different angles of the characters in national clothing, thereby creating not just an ethnographic copy, but an artistic image

[email protected]Статья посвящается философии и практической деятельности Букера Т. Вашингтона (1856—1915) — наиболее значительного афроамериканского лидера конца XIX — начала XX вв. Автор анализирует формирование взглядов и жизненных принципов данного деятеля, его поиск мирного взаимодействия белого и чернокожего населения, в условиях ограничения гражданских и политических прав афроамериканцев на территории южных штатов после окончания периода
Реконструкции в 1879 г. Временный отказ чернокожего населения от борьбы за политическое равноправие взамен на социально-экономические возможности, являвшийся основной идеей «идеологии приспособления» Вашингтона, стала компромиссом во взаимоотношении двух рас. Особое внимание автор уделяет рассмотрению образовательной программы Вашингтона, его экономической и социальной стратегии развития чернокожего населения в условиях расовой
дискриминации на Юге США, а также причинам, приведшим к неудаче «идеологии приспособления» в попытке сдержать дальнейшее наступление расистского законодательства. The article is focused on the philosophy and the practical actions of Booker T. Washington (1856-1915) — the most significant African-American leader of the late XIX — early XX centuries. The author analyzes the formation of attitudes and life principles of this figure, his search of peaceful interaction of white and black people, in conditions of the restriction of civil and political rights of the African-Americans in the territory of the southern states after the end of the Reconstruction in 1879. The temporary renouncement by the black population of the struggle for political equality in return
for socio-economic opportunities, that was the main idea of the Washington’s “ideology of adaptation”, became a compromise in the relationship between the two races. The author also focuses his attention on the Washington’s educational program, his economic development strategy of the black people, and his attitude to the racial discrimination, as well as the reasons that led the “ideology of adaptation” to the failure in attempt to stop the further offensive racist legislation

A new epigram of Matthew Devaris
No full textMatthew Devaris, one of the prominent Hellenists in 16th-century Rome, is known, inter alia, as an author of Greek epigrams. Some of them were printed in the preface to his Liber de Graecae linguae particulis in 1588. As for the rest, several epigrams were published in 1962 by Faidon Bubulidis and a few other ones by Anna Meschini Pontani in 1978. Meschini Pontani supposed that the corpus of Devaris' epigrams might turn out to be larger. Indeed, one of his unknown poems has recently come to light in an unexpected place. A paper leaf preserved in the Archives of the Saint Petersburg Institute for History (carton 671, No. 54) is a subscribed copy of his epigram dedicated to Guglielmo Sirleto, apparently an autograph. Its first publication is offered here, together with an introductory note and some remarks concerning Devaris' possible sources

Methodological problems of theorisation of geography
No full text<p>In this thesis investigated the basic conceptions of theorisation of geography. The author has shown that one of the major problems standing in the way of creating a geographical theory is to develop a methodological foundation, which would be an adequate to content of geographical science. The study proved the possibility of creating a general geographical theory based on principles of global (universal) evolutionism. Global evolutionism, as the foundation of the modern scientific worldview, shapes ideas about global (universal) evolution, the general laws of development of self-organizing material systems of different nature.</p
