The aim of the article is to present an overview of generation, formation and development of the history of domestic librarianship, since the late 1930s until 2018, basing on the study of materials of dissertations. In the course of analysis, the author revealed 1064 theses in the field of library science and related areas, 270 of which are devoted to the history of librarianship. The article shows that dissertations research on the history of librarianship in the initial period from 1930 to 1950 occupied up to the half of all library dissertation theses; about a third of them were created in the period from 1951 to 1970 and a quarter — since 1971 to the present. This indicates that interest to the history of librarianship is stable. The article reflects the peak of historical research that fell on the period from 2001 to 2010. The author suggests that 25% indicator level of historical studies of the total number of research works on library science is a necessary and sufficient level to ensure the development of library science in general.The article notes multidisciplinary nature of dissertations research: 60% of studies defended in pedagogical sciences, 37% — in historical sciences and slightly more than 3% — in other branches of science. The article reveals the gradual increase in the number of prepared and defended dissertation theses in historical sciences, which contributes to the expansion of research space in the history of library construction. The author carried out periodization of dissertations research. It is shown that the main attention was paid to the research studies on the history of Soviet period in library construction.

Francis Bacon wrote his The History of the Reign of King Henry the Seventh during 1621 after his fall from power and during his initial period of disgrace. He had, of course, contemplated some such history for a long time; and his exile from the Jacobean court allowed him time to complete this project. Exactly how much “research” he did remains a matter of debate. But this history of Henry VII exists as an exceptional example of Tudor-Stuart historical writing. Given Bacon's fascination with questions of history, broached in The Advancement of Learning (1605) and expanded in De Augmentis Scientiarum (1623), one might reasonably expect to find an example of Bacon's practice of history. The History of Henry VII exists as Bacon's only finished full-scale history of an era, although other fragments survive.A favorite scholarly pastime, at least since the late nineteenth century, has been to detect Bacon's “errors” in his history—that is, how and where he got things wrong. Sometimes, for example, he apparently duplicated the error of a source. He does not, however, stand alone among historians on this score. In any event, modern historical research affords a clearer view of the accuracy of Bacon's account. None of this detracts, however, from Bacon's considerable achievement. Part of the recognition of his accomplishment derives from understanding the different influences that impinge on Bacon's writing Henry VII. I intend, for example, to assess the indebtedness to the life of the Jacobean court as a model or influence on Bacon's portrait of King Henry's relationship with his wife Queen Elizabeth.

The purpose of the article is to present the historiographical review of the studies on the history of domestic librarianship, aimed at summarizing the interim results and identifying the trends in development of the history of library construction. The author determines that the research works on library construction in the USSR republics prevail in the studies on the history of librarianship. Research works on the history of library construction in Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan and Ukraine dominate among them. Since the 1990s, the vector has shifted to the study of library construction in certain regions, areas and Autonomous republics of Russia. The regions of greatest interest are Siberia and the Urals, as well as Tatarstan, Bashkiria and Orenburg region. In chronological terms, the most studies are devoted to the history of Soviet library construction. In addition to comprehensive research studies, the works on the history of formation and development of particular library technologies — such as creation of collections, book description and library services — occupy a definite place. The history of library education is of considerable interest to the experts. The researchers studied the history of library science in sufficient detail.The author noted that there formed the central and regional schools in the field of history of librarianship. Moscow and St. Petersburg schools occupy the main place among them.The author determined that the lack of synthetic, comprehensive scientific research in the area of source studies, archaeography and historiography of the history of librarianship is the main drawback hindering the development of the history of librarianship. The article notes that without these studies it is impossible to conduct the generalized research covering the history of the domestic librarianship from its origin to the present time. The article continues the earlier studies.

The analysis of scientific literature devoted to the direct history of the first popularly elected government body – the All-Russian Constituent Assembly. In the study, the chronological principle of classification is chosen. Thus, five periods of domestic post-revolutionary historiography are presented, distinguished on the basis of a gradual increase in the source base, as well as an expansion of the range of issues studied in the context of studying the history of the Constituent Assembly. The general conclusion of the historiographic analysis was the increased attention of researchers to the election results, as well as insufficient coverage of the course of the election campaign itself. In addition, it is worth noting the obvious influence of ideology on the shift in emphasis and research goals throughout the entire Soviet period, which manifested itself in the clear predominance of studying the activities of the Bolshevik party, while the issues of election campaigns of the entire spectrum of political forces are underrepresented.

The article is devoted to the problems of forming a sources base for studying the history of fighting smuggling in the Russian Far East, a subject which is becoming a line of historical research. In many respects, this is due to activation of scientific activity in the Far Eastern departmental universities. Transfer of the Russian State Historical Archive of the Far East from Tomsk to Vladivostok has played its role in studying smuggling as a historical phenomenon in the Far East. Although they appreciate the work done for introducing into scientific use Soviet period documents from state and departmental archives, the authors can’t help noting fragmentary use of documents of the RGIA DV. This is what prevents reconstruction of a complete and objective picture of fighting smuggling in the periphery. The authors study new possibilities of forming a source base for studying the history of combating smuggling in the first decades of the 20th century. They note that opening all fonds the RGIA DV for researchers in 2013 created favorable conditions for comprehensive study of customs records, this peculiar source on the history of smuggling. A complex of these documents is preserved in the fonds of the customs agencies that operated in the Amur and Trans-Baikal area in the pre-revolutionary period: regional offices of customs administration, custom offices, custom posts. They had to shoulder the bulk of counter-smuggling work in the absence of border guard. Study of some archival cases demonstrates information potential of customs record keeping. The authors contend the need to improve the methods of identification and introduction into scientific use of sources on the history of fighting smuggling. Further prospects for development of this line of historical research are associated with use of the entire complex of customs agencies documents which is supposed to expand the subject-matter and to force researchers to address it not just as a crime, but also as a social and cultural phenomenon.

Introduction. The article examines an object of cultural heritage that is involved in forming the architectural look of the Musin-Pushkin Estate at the intersection of Dobroslobodskaya and Spartakovskaya Streets in Moscow (now a group of buildings of the Moscow State University of Civil Engineering) — the ensemble fence connected with the red line of Spartakovskaya Street. As a listed building of federal importance, the monument is currently preserved as repaired and restored in the Soviet period, but it is still important as a part of the ensemble created in the era of classicism, since it once included the front gate opened into the vast estate. The main objective of this article is to trace the history of the estate fence, to identify later inclusions in the building mass and, as a consequence, to propose a graphic reconstruction of its original look. Materials and methods. The study of the monument is based on the method of comprehensive source study, which includes the search and analysis of sources and literature, field studies, including probing, pit sampling and measuring work, as well as chemical development study of building and finishing materials. Using the comparative method, this object was studied among stylistically and typologically similar buildings. Results. As a result of the research, the construction periodization of the monument was identified, its existing volumes were dated, the initial elements of the building were discovered and studied, and later strata were identified, which made it possible to develop a graphic reconstruction of the building for the initial period. Conclusions. The proposed reconstruction of the monument has resulted from the comprehensive studies allowing to reconstruct the fence that has lost the original architectural form throughout its existence. As a result, the fence will enrich one of the most fascinating manor ensembles in Moscow providing its completion.

The article is devoted to the analysis of degree and nature of reflection of the problem of the genesis and evolution of transport communications in the south of Western Siberia in the 18th century in Russian historical research. The source base of the research was the Siberian studies literature of the 18th - early 21st centuries, devoted to or concerning the formation of communication routes in Altai and the Irtysh region, which is chronologically divided into three periods (pre-revolutionary, Soviet and modern), the presentation of the last two arranged problem-chronologically. In pre-revolutionary works, information about the region's roads was isolated (sporadic), usually in the context of personal observations of a traveler, calculations of the approximate distance between administrative objects or mentions of existed trade routes. Studies of the Soviet period affected on major overland and water routes, their role in colonization of the territory, and their relationship to population movements. Modern historiography presents some experiences of wide coverage of the history of communication routes in the south of Western Siberia, the region's roads are traditionally considered either as departmental tracks or in the context of expedition itineraries of individual detachments.

The article is devoted to the contribution of the famous Russian specialist in library science K. I. Abramov to the methodology of library history, the author of almost 340 publications, of which two-thirds are devoted to history. The importance of his contribution to the development of source studies, historiography, archeography, and library history is emphasized. Based on the principle of historicism and methods of structural analysis, the historical reconstruction of the formation and development of his methodological views was carried out. The external conditions of his formation as a historian are analyzed. It is noted that the formation took place in difficult socio-political conditions. The main conclusions are as follows. The methodological views of K. I. Abramov were based on the relying on archival material, striving to improve the scientific character of historical research, overcoming the desire to reduce research to a superficial presentation and commentary on certain Leninist positions. With his participation, Lenin and Krupskaya’s works on library science were collected and published. At the same time, his worldview was characterized by a dogmatic attitude to Marxism and its methodology, an unconditional adherence to the leading quote, and a non-critical attitude to the statements of the classics of Marxism-Leninism. The Marxist-Leninist doctrine of culture and the library heritage of Lenin and Krupskaya served as a theory in Abramov’s works; the dominance of historical and pedagogical research, which is characterized by following the official interpretation of certain events, simplified presentation of historical processes and events, unambiguity of author’s judgments and assessments, avoiding halftones, exalting achievements while concealing mistakes and failures.The analysis also showed that in the 1990s, under the influence of socio-political changes and rejection of Marxism-Leninism, Abramov revised his attitude to the history of Soviet library construction. He began to focus on the theory of democracy, in the context of which libraries were seen as a vehicle for democracy, and the leading role in library construction was given to the public library movement. He puts forward the concept of democratic library science, which was formed in the period between the February and October revolutions and was rejected by the Bolsheviks.The significance of this study is associated with the generalization of Abramov’s methodological heritage aimed at developing the positive aspects of his methodology, as well as overcoming methodologically incorrect judgments about the history of Soviet library construction.
