Based on the analysis of publications devoted to the study of ceramics of the Andronovo (Fedorovo) culture of the steppe and forest-steppe Altai, the article considers the peculiarities of pottery production, studied within the framework of the historical and cultural direction developed by A. A. Bobrinsky. Using the historical and cultural approach, the researchers studied the ceramic complexes of twelve settlements and two burial grounds of the Andronovo (Fedorovo) culture of Altai, totaling 559 vessels. On the basis of the published studies, the article gives a general characteristic of the technology for the manufacture of Andronovo ceramics of Altai is given, and identifies the main directions of research work reflecting the approaches to the analysis of the material considered. The available data on the technology of making dishes of the Andronovo (Fedorovo) culture allow us to say about the prospects of studying this topic from the standpoint of the historical and cultural direction. A. A. Bobrinsky’s approach makes it possible to draw conclusions about cultural traditions in pottery, reconstruct the directions of migration and reveal the mixing of population groups, which will contribute to solving the issues of the origin and periodization of the Fedorov culture not only of the steppe and forest-steppe Altai, but also of the entire area of distribution of the Andronovo cultural and historical community. Key words: Andronovo culture, Fedorovo culture, ceramics, historical and cultural approach, history of study Acknowledgments: This work was financially supported by the Russian Science Foundation, project No. 20–18–00179 “Migration and the Processes of Ethnocultural Interaction as Factors in the Formation of Multiethnic Societies on the Territory of the Greater Altai in Antiquity and the Middle Ages: Interdisciplinary Analysis of Archaeological and Anthropological Materials”.

The article dwells on reaearch and academic activity of D. I. Kachenovskiy at Kharkiv University. His contribution is shown to the study of international relations history at Middle Ages. It is emphasized that we are quite right to call D. I. Kachenovskiy one of most prominent Ukrainian experts in this field, despite his certain idealization of feudal society. Main teaching subjects of D. I. Kachenovskiy were international law and state law of European powers. The basic research work by D. I. Kachenovskiy became his doctoral thesis «On Privateers and Prize Proceedings Relative to Neutral Merchandise» (1855) which became widely known both in Russian Empire and Europe. D. I. Kachenovskiy admitted the appropriateness of privateering, characterized its essence and shared the opinion of well-known French scholar J.-M. Pardessus that charter by Aragon king Alfonso III of 1288 had been the first legislative act relating to privateering. The first period in European privateering history when “naval war was almost indistinguishable from piracy” lasted, by the scholar’s opinion, up to the end of XVI century. His «Course in International Law» was published in 1863, though unfinished, and embraced the antiquity as well as Middle Ages. The concept of international law development in the Middle Ages as proposed by D. I. Kachenovskiy included several basic elements. Those are: admission of the tremendous contribution of Christian Church, Roman Popes and German Emperors in elaboration of this law, influence of public order and national character of German tribes, as well as statement of general détente of mores and international tension in the Middle Ages under the effect of above-cited factors. The scholar emphasized positive influence of knighthood on customs of war and international relations. Medieval international law, history of privateering and trade, social-political and cultural life of Florence and effect of internal factors on its development were the main lines in research of the scientist. Works by D. I. Kachenovskiy exerted the substantial impact not only on students, but on his colleagues as well, and his scientific treatments mostly sustained time exam.

AbstractIn recent years the study of local religious histories, especially in Europe, has gained in prominence. Because of the encounters between different cultural traditions in the Middle Ages and the voyages of discovery, the religious history of the Iberian Peninsula became one of the most complex in Europe. This article focuses on one portion of this history around the turn of the 19th/20th century, and in particular on two attempts to blame the Catholic religion for the general crisis in Spain and Portugal at the start of the modern era. These two forms of critiquing religion are illustrated by the examples of Miguel de Unamuno and Antero de Quental, whose writings were characteristic of the typical relationship between religion and intellectuals in this period. Not only were the Spanish philosopher and the Portuguese poet influential on their own and later generations, but they are also truly representative of a certain tragic ”loss“ of religion in the Iberian Peninsula.

Being the climax of the mining science, metallurgy has always played an important role at the Saint Petersburg Mining University, where a community emerged over the past years comprised of graduates and staff who chose metallurgy as the area of their professional interest and application. The history of the community is yet to be studied in all details. As for the professional activity of the former students of metallurgy and their contribution to the common cause of this discipline, this also needs to be thoroughly analyzed. The purpose of this essay is to partially close and highlight the current historic gaps with the hope to see further research in the area. We shall also try and answer the following question: How adequate is the metallurgist community of the Mining Institute to the current concept of the science school in Russia. Many years ago, the Mining Institute saw the rise of a community of metallurgists with different specializations, which still exists and is active today. The members of the community are capable of solving complex problems, generating breakthrough ideas and develop leadership skills. Getting support from their centuries-long heritage and their genuine interest in the subject, the community ensures its continuity and resists external change. The contemporary philosophy of science highlights the phenomenon of Russian science schools and their role for science and society while pointing out important features and characteristics. The most precise and concise definition of science schools was given by A. S. Levin, who oversees support of leading science schools and grants of the President of the Russian Federation. His definition is quite comprehensive: “A science school is a Russian historic form of joint research work carried out by a team of researchers of different ages and qualifications led by a recognized leader towards a common goal and ensuring an efficient research work and upskilling”. It will be entirely fair to apply this definition to the Mining Institute’s metallurgist community comprised of creative individuals who cherish centuries-long traditions and who, without hesitation, continue to engage themselves in research, education and social activity in this 21st century.

Burial Grounds

Jars are the most extensive category of earthenware from catacomb burial grounds of the Saltovo-Mayaki culture. They have greatest variety of shapes among others categories of ceramics. Thе article is devoted to the study of the 211 jars shapes from six catacomb burial grounds of the Saltovo-Mayaki culture. The research is based on the historical-and-cultural approach to the study of the vessels shape, developed by A. A. Bobrinsky and supplemented by his modern followers. The aim of ceramics study in this approach is to reconstruct specific cultural traditions of manufacturers and consumers of pottery, as well as to study the history of the population in ancient times based on data about these cultural traditions. The catacomb burial grounds studied here are divided into two groups. The core of the first group is Dmitrievsky and Nizhnelubyansky burial grounds. Podgorovsky burial ground has many similarities with sites listed above. The second group consisted of Starosaltovsky, Rubezhansky and Yutanovsky burial grounds. These groups is fully consistent with the grouping based on burial traditions of the Saltovo-Mayaki culture. According to G. E. Afanasiev these burial traditions are associated with different tribal groups of the Don Alans. The main conclusion is that the various mass traditions of the jars shapes mark the differences in the skills among potters from different Alans tribal groups who settled in the middle - second half of the VIII century in the Middle Don basin. They show the connection of different cultural traditions with specific ancient human collectives.

The article gives a brief overview of the results of the research and scientific contribution of the folklore sector’s staff members to the formation and replenishment of the manuscript collection of Khakass Research Institute of Lan-guage, Literature and History. The research activity of the folklore sector is important in preservation and revival of Khakass culture – its language, history, traditions and art. Scientific expeditions contributed to the origin and develop-ment of the Khakass folklore. The pre-revolutionary period of the Khakass folklore is associated with the names of ear-ly researchers of history, ethnography of the Khakass people. An active study of the Khakass folklore begins in the 20th century, primarily due to the opening of KhakRILLH. in 1944. In 1945 the first expedition on folklore and language was organized. The staff of the institute collected a huge fund of folklore texts: heroic legends, tales, myths, legends, traditions, proverbs, sayings, riddles, recordings of live speech of different dialects. The replenishment of the manuscript collection with folklore materials was also contributed by the holding of re-gional contests “Aitys”. The opening of the folklore sector in 1994, marked a new stage in the systematic collection of empirical material from experts of oral folk art. Research work of the members of the folklore sector solve urgent prob-lems of the Khakass folklore. A purposeful study of the monuments of oral folk art for familiarization with the cultural traditions, customs and history of the Khakass people contributes to the implementation of the tasks which are set for the sector.

The article is devoted to generalization of results of the technical and technological analysis of the ceramics from settlement and funeral complexes of altai dated from the neolithic era to the Middle ages. cultural traditions in selection of feedstock and preparation of moulding masses, depending on landscape characteristics of territories where monuments are found, are analyzed in the article. it is established that for steppe, forest-steppe and foothill areas the use of ferruginous (iron-rich) flexible clays is characteristic, and as for mountain areas, the use of low ferruginous and medium ferruginous claylike material is typical. differences of cultural traditions and differences in use of mineral admixtures, coinciding with landscape characteristics of areas where monuments are located, are revealed. the addition of chamotte is typical for forest-steppe and steppe altai (69% and 65%), and the addition of gruss - for foothill altai (69%). in Mountain altai production of ceramics without artificially entered mineral admixtures was the main tradition: chamotte and gruss are recorded in 13% and 17% of vessels, respectively, that in total makes 30%. the mixed recipes (gruss + chamotte) prevail in peripheral regions of the foothill zone. such observations allowed drawing a conclusion that in areas with stone outcrop gruss had been added to moulding masses, and chamotte had been added in places with no stone outcrop. the mixed recipes (gruss+ chamotte) reflect not only the merging of cultural traditions, but also the mixing of population from the areas with different landscape characteristics.
