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.

Artistic Research

The phenomenon of Group of Russian poets and fiction writers of the early XXth century, merged by literary critics under the title «new-peasant poets », is seemingly enough researched. However, when there is a serious knowledge of the creative heritage of the two most famous new-peasant poets – Sergei Yesenin and Nikolai Klyuev – heritage (especially prose) of the third significant poet of this circle, Sergei Klychkov, is still poorly studied. The focus of this article is the first part of a trilogy («Sugar German», «Chertuhinskij Balakir» and «Prince of Peace»), roman of S.A. Klytchkov «Sugar German», where most unpopular for this theme post-revolutionary years author undertakes to explore the issue of Holiness. For artistic research of the topic Klytchkov uses not only all the accumulated before him «resources» of the classical Russian literature (primarily heritage of N.S. Leskov), but also his own front-line experience and experience of Russian sectarianism (old believers of different leanings and concerts), a peculiar fad that is going through all Russian intellectuals in the pre-war and prerevolutionary years (correspondence with N.A. Kljuev, block shape of Grigory Rasputin, «Walking to Castle Kitezh» by S.A. Klytchkov himself, etc.). The task of author of this article is to find and describe the exceptional artistic means («double effect» and «double-lighting»), which the writer uses to achieve the necessary objectivity in narration. The article uses characteristics of prose made by writer's contemporaries (A.M.Gorky, A.K. Voronski, P.A. Zhurov), studies of creativity of S.A. Klychkov that became classic now (N.M. Solncev, M. Nikjo), theoretical works on the Russian and world literature and art of M.M. Bakhtin, V. Kozhinov, Ortega Y Gasset, and T. Mann, as well as works on the theory of literature of 2001–2019 years by S.A. Nebolsin, V.V. Fedorov, I.A. Esaulov.

The City

Little is known of the value of eighteenth-century rates and taxes as sources for the urban historian. Corfield, in her study of eighteenth-century Norwich, stated in 1976 that ‘the stereotyped nature of eighteenth-century tax assessments precludes use of fiscal data from national sources’ and this is a fair reflection of the then and to some extent the current orthodoxy, despite Rudé's pioneering studies of the 1960s in which he used land tax and poor rate returns to estimate the wealth of the electorate of Hanoverian London and Middlesex. Schwarz, in a study of late-eighteenth-century London, could still comment in 1979 that for eighteenth-century rates and taxes ‘little is known beyond general impressions’. Recently, however, Wright has thrown interesting light on the use of the Easter books and poor rates of early-modern towns and cities, and the 1986 volume on the land tax edited by Turner and Mills, although still largely concerned with the use of rural land tax assessments, includes three chapters on the value of the assessments in urban and industrial history. The writers hope that city rate and national tax returns might play a fuller role as historical sources, but their optimism is tempered with caution because of the returns' intractability and inconsistency. It is hoped here to reinforce both their enthusiasm and their caution, to reveal additional pitfalls and suggest ways to avoid them and in particular to extend the debate to the neglected pre-1780 assessments and to the city of Bristol.

The review provides coverage and understanding of the International scientific conferences and cultural events held in 2018, dedicated to the I.S. Turgenev’s 200th anniversary. The large-scale celebration of the anniversary testifies to the increasing attention of literary critics and the general public to the personality and creative heritage of the great Russian writer, who until now has not been honored in the world literature with the place that he deserves at par with other Russian classical writers – Tolstoy, Dostoevsky and Chekhov.

«Воспой гласом, воспой духом». Spiritual lyric poetry of Old Believers Pomors communities inhabiting Upper Kama RiverThe article contains broad discussion of well-preserved traditional Christian culture in the community of Priestless Old-Believers of the ‘Pomortsy-Vygovtsy’ faction located at the springhead of Kama River. The community of the Kama Old-Believers is situated on a small area (60 x 60 kilometers) where numerous oral and written relics of spiritual culture were found by the Moscow State University archaeographers. Unique richness and good preserving of a spiritual poem results from the division of the community in the middle of the 19th century into two groups – ‘dyomintsy’ and ‘maximovtsy’ for personal and geographical and not doctrinal reasons. Each group despite unity of faith tried to be more religious and better preserve their tradition. The introductory part contains general description of the lyrics which are the result of spiritual life of the Old-Believers community as well as detailed discussion of the research work and publications devoted to Kama Old-Believers. What follows is a deep analysis showing the character, depth of faith and preserving traditions which are included in the spiritual poetry of people working the soil who are directly connected with nature. Significant space devoted to quoting the proems and discussing the essence of numerous spiritual lyrics in the analytical frame proposed by the author.

The Ust-Tsilemsky region of the Komi Republic is known for its collection of medieval handwritten books and manuscripts. These collections found in the area of the Lower Pechora River contain a rich variety of Old Believers’ written documents of different genres. The au­thors explore one of these documents — St. Augustine’s Miracle of the Revelation of the El­der, which exists in two different Pechora documents. One of them is a hagiographic text cre­ated by the famous Ust-Tsilma scribe and editor of Old Russian texts Myandin, who lived in the second half of the 19th century. The Miracle is a part of the Book of St. Augustine and has survived in only a few copies. It is noteworthy that Myandin’s works have not been previous­ly studied. Employing textual analysis, the authors came to the conclusion which of the two Myadlin’s texts is closer to the earliest surviving scroll of the Miracle (Science Library of Moscow State University, the collection of manuscripts of the Old Believers of Bessarabia and Belaya Krinitsa, No. 2194, fol. 109—115 ob). This is a text contained in the Tsvetnik, com­piled by Myandin. The study showed that the other copy is a later work of the scribe on the storyline of The Miracle, which involved the shortening of the text, the introduction of new narrative details, naming the main character, and providing a more detailed description of his appearance. The authors argue that, at a later stage of mastering the plot of the Miracle, My­andin created his own version of the events described. He employed his own vocabulary satu­rating the plot with details, which were missing in the first version. He cleared the text of unnecessary motives that distract the reader from the main idea of the story: holiness does not depend on rank or status; it can also be granted to a humble, illiterate person who is capable of performing miracles.

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.

Selected materials of a virtual round-table session devoted to reminiscences about Sergey G. Bocharov (1929-2017) and discussion of his academic interests and achievements. B. Egorov remembers meeting and keeping in touch with Bocharov, as well as new friends he made through him. Y. Mann elaborates on the ideological challenges to Soviet philology and on the role played by Bakhtin, Gogol, and Platonov in forming Bocharov’s own personality. D. Urnov reflects on the nature of Bocharov’s philological talent and the time when they both worked at the Department of Literary Theory in IMLI (Institute of the World Literature). L. Szilard reminisces about her student days at the Moscow State University and her friendship with Sergey and Irina Bocharov, which had lasted a lifetime from the 1950s. E. Dmitrieva considers the subject of Gogol as developed in Bocharov’s articles, and on the latter’s work to produce a complete collection of Gogol’s writings. V. Kotelnikov brings up the topic of K. Leontiev as perceived by Bocharov. P. Glushakov chooses to revisit Bocharov’s main ideas – for example, his concept of genetic memory of literature – and illustrates it with an extensive discussion of the duel, gunshot, and revenge in works by Pushkin, Lermontov, Chekhov, and Shukshin.
