The article describes a small collection of finds from the Mezhegei settlement with the total of 105 items which were included in the collection of the State Hermitage in 1987. The artifacts were discovered by the Tuvan archaeological expedition of Moscow State University under the leadership of L. R. Kyzlasov in 1960. The excavations showed that the buildings of the settlement were constructed in the architectural traditions of the 11th — 13th centuries. Local builders used a frame, the foundations were made of large adobe bricks, the dwellings were heated with kangs, massive bases for columns were preserved, the roof was tiled, there were many bas-reliefs to decorate the walls and the ridge of the roof. The settlement was the remains of a Mongolian city founded in the first half of the 13th century with the area of about twenty-five hectares. There were many buildings in the city, the remains of a rampart and other structures have been preserved. The finds, according to the inventories, come from a Buddhist temple and stupa. These are mainly architectural decorations, tiles and gray clay ceramics. The article describes five findings from the Mezhegey Settlement.

The article examines the history of the study of the near Chora of Tauric Chersonese on the Heraclean Peninsula in the 1970s–1990s on the basis of the scientific correspondence of the Director of the State museum-reserve «Tauric Chersonese» Inna Antonova and Professor of Moscow state University Vasily Kuzishchin. It is noted that the study of the correspondence of two scientists became possible due to the careful processing of I. A. Antonova documents in the museum’s archive. Particular attention was paid to the issue of the resumption of the Heraclean expedition activities, which was discussed in the letters of scientists to each other. It is concluded that only after studying, systematizing and analyzing all the materials preserved in the Chersonesе archive it will be possible to give a proper assessment of the contribution of I. A. Antonova in the research and public life of the museum, city, country, as well as the contribution of her correspondents, one of whom was V. I. Kuzishchin.

The article is devoted to the history of acquisition of the municipal and state repositories with early printed Cyrillic monuments in the 19th — 21st centuries. The aim of the research is to show the process of acquisition of the collections of state museums, archives and libraries of Russia. The author uses descriptions of the books from the catalogues published with the participation or under the guidance of experts in archaeography of the Moscow State University (MSU) named after M.V. Lomonosov. They cover the collections of the MSU Scientific Library, as well as the collections of museums, archives and libraries of Tver, Yaroslavl and Perm Regions, as well as the State Historical, Architectural and Ethnographic Museum-Reserve “Kizhi”.As a total there are involved 3953 descriptions containing information about the date and source of acquisition of the books to the repositories. The author concluded that archaeographic expeditions made a great contribution to the replenishment of the collections of the early printed Cyrillic monuments (860 books), but this contribution was not decisive. The most part of the unique monuments got into repositories as private donations or were purchased in old book shops, or during the expropriation of Church valuables. Only in the 1920s there were obtained 1068 books from the Church libraries.Significant event in the life of repositories in the twentieth century was more or less permanent redistribution of stocks between the major collections. The most part of the early printed Cyrillic books (almost half of them already introduced into scientific discourse), preserved now in the Scientific Library of the Moscow State University, was obtained not in the course of expeditionary work, but as a result of transfer of the books from the V.I. Lenin State Library of the USSR, the State Public Historical Library of Russia, the State Historical Museum and the Moscow Kremlin Museums.

The article describes the results of a qualitative study of the image of an ideal Deputy of the State Duma of the Russian citizens conducted by the Chair of Sociology and Psychology of Politics, Dept. of Politics Lomonosov Moscow State University in 2020. The main method of the study was method of deep focused interviews. The results of the study allowed us to identify representations of Russian citizens about the desired and unacceptable qualities of the ideal Deputy. The study showed that one of the sources of forming those ideal representations about Deputies is the perception of real Deputies, which has a sharply negative character. The results can be used as a reference material in the preparation and conduct of election campaigns of candidates for Deputies of the State Duma of the VIII Convocation.

This article examines the career of Yakov Kronrod, a Soviet economic theorist, in the context of the larger transformation of Soviet economics in the post-Stalin period. It argues that Kronrod’s debates with his rivals in the “Mathematical Economics” and “Moscow State University” approaches to economics open a window on how the changing relationship between the state and the profession of economics created new research agendas. The transformation of economics in the post-Stalin period into a “Cold War Science” from an “ideological science” made “policy relevance” increasingly important to Soviet economic practitioners and allowed once ideologically hostile ideas to become central to economics. This case study makes a larger intervention into the history of late Soviet society, arguing that seemingly arcane intellectual conflicts were, in fact, a reflection of extremely contentious political battles and that ideology remained a key site of politics deep into the Brezhnev era.

В данной статье рассматривается практика посещения детьми из семей русских староверов Республики Молдова, из г. Бендеры (непризнанное государство Приднестровская Молдавская Республика), «страшных мест» и рассказы о них. Исследование основано на материале, собранном в экспедиции ИМЛИ РАН и МАЛ МГУ зимой 2020 г. Сообщество староверов г. Бендеры сформировалось в XVIII в., тесно связано с единоверными сообществами Украины, Румынии и России. Это «поповцы», т. е. староверы, которые признают священство, подчиняются так называемой «белокриницкой» иерархии, возникшей на территории, относившейся в середине XIX в. к Австро-Венгрии, в селении Белая Криница. В сообществе с 1960-х гг. проводились исследования древнерусской книжности (специалисты МГУ им. М. В. Ломоносова, группа под руководством И. В. Поздеевой), исследовалась церковно-певческая культура (Н. Г. Денисов), был изучен календарно-обрядовый и свадебный музыкальный репертуар староверов-липован (сотрудники Кабинета народной музыки при МГК им. П. И. Чайковского И. К. Свиридова, Н. М. Савельева, И. А. Савельева). Детские традиционные занятия, как исторические, так и наблюдаемые в наши дни, не описывались. Зафиксированные нами практики трактуются в статье как этап психологического развития детей, свойственный возрасту. Также рассматриваются традиционные для данного сообщества аспекты детско-родительских отношений в связи с посещением детьми «страшных мест». Среди детей из семей русских староверов Молдовы ранее аналогичные исследования не проводились, расшифровка интервью с детьми вводится в научный оборот. This article examines children’s practice visiting “scary places” and telling stories about them. These places are visited by children from families of Russian Old Believers in the city of Bendery, Pridnestrovian Moldavan Republic. The study is based on material collected during an expedition sponsored by the Institute of World Literature and Moscow State University in winter, 2020. The community of Old Believers in Bendery was formed in the eighteenth century. Since the 1960s, specialists from Moscow State University (led by I. V. Pozdeeva) have conducted research in the community on ancient Russian literature. Church and song culture was also studied (N. G. Denisov), and research on ethnomusicological phenomena was carried out by the staff of the Folk Music Cabinet of the Tchaikovsky Moscow State University (I. K. Sviridov, N. M. Savelev, I. A. Savelev). They studied the calendar-ritual and wedding musical repertoire of the Old Believers-Lipovans. Children’s traditional activities, both historical and those observed today, are not described in the article. Rather, the practices we recorded are interpreted as a stage in children’s psychological development. The traditional aspects of child-parent relations in connection with the children’s visits to “scary places” are also considered. Such studies have not previously been conducted among children from the families of Russian Old Believers in Moldova, and the article introduces transcripts of interviews with children to the scholarly community.
