The purpose of the article is to identify the historical and cultural specifics of A. Scriabin's missionary activity in dealing with the features of music management as a value, creative phenomenon of spiritual culture, which has a practical implementation in the conditions of socio-cultural interaction. The methodology includes analytical, comparative-historical, and genre-nominative musicological approaches determined by aesthetic-cultural and philosophical positions, as we have in the works of P. Valeri, O. Losev, L. Sabaneev, in the dissertations of D. Androsova, V. Batanov, Liu Binqian, etc. The methodological foundations of the research are the theory of knowledge, philosophical principles of dialectics of unity and interaction of object and subject, general and individual, spiritual and material, cultural and historical. The scientific novelty lies in the distinctive historical and cultural features of Music Management in the missionary efforts of Fr. Scriabin, directed by the Christian-Hesychast incentives of his ideological attitudes, which fueled both the creative and practical activities of both a brilliant artist and organizational and peacekeeping efforts to protect the "intellectual rebirth" of people during the bloody realities of the first World War. Conclusions. The Christian-Hesychast, including the genesis of the ideological foundations of Fr. Scriabin, who gave the features of music management, organizational and managerial principles determined by the national mentality of the need to "save humanity" through religious unity in an ecumenical-expanding interpretation of planetary-significant actions ("Religare"-communication). Scriabin saw the value-semantic load of organizational and managerial means in the dispatch of the mystery as a planetary-unifying factor-despite the socio-political discord of the first World War. Extra-artistic indicators of missionary activity by their nature are indicated. Scriabins demonstrate the paradigmatic component of combinations of creative-practical and organizational-educational, theoretical-cultural-creative, etc. in the person of outstanding personalities of the last century, the phenomenon of which is indicated in the "Leonardo da Vinci system" by P. Valerie as a marking index of the psychological attitude of a creative person in the last century.

The military and political events during August-September of 1914 resulted in the active incorporation of clerical institutions of the Katerynoslav diocese in organizing systemic and ideological support and material provision for the political course of the Russian autocracy, practical implementation of numerous internal political campaigns aimed at strengthening the state system and defence capabilities of the country, increasing the combat spirit of the current army and naval forces, participation in the mobilization of conscripts, consolidating the population for the practical solution of a number of socio-economic and agricultural problems caused by the war. A significant component of the organization of charity in the Katerynoslav diocese was the provision of systematic material assistance to the personnel of the military units of the Russian army. As a rule, it was mostly implemented in various forms: collecting donations for military purposes, organizing the systematic supply of warm clothes, shoes, bedding and underwear, necessary military equipment, foodstuffs, medicines, articles of daily necessity, tobacco and personal hygiene products. One of the major directions of charitable activity of the Orthodox clergy during the First World War was the organization of a chain of hospitals and military sick quarters which provided the necessary medical assistance to the wounded and sick soldiers and officers. At the initial stage of the First World War, the Orthodox clergy of the Katerynoslav diocese participated actively in the organization and conducting of numerous charitable events and campaigns aimed at providing financial and material assistance to the low-income categories of the population suffering from hostilities. The charitable activity of the Orthodox clergy met the principal needs of the Russian society and played an important role in the depreciation and smoothing of destructive phenomena of social entropy caused by the war. However, due to the economic crisis determined by the exponential growth of the military conflict, the gradual destruction of the economic system, the elimination of the financial resources of a great part of charitable institutions and private benefactors, the rapid increase of the population in need, the charitable activity of the church could not reach its goal and effectively solve a set of urgent problems of social protection of the population of the country and Prydniprovsk region.

The Extraordinary prosperity of the Western peoples in Europe and America at the beginning of the twentieth century, on the eve of the first World War, was reached after a long series of efforts which began at about the time Leonardo da Vinci was born in 1452. In contrast to the fourteenth and early fifteenth centuries, the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries were a period of prosperity in most districts of continental Europe. The Middle Ages drew to a close in the midst of great movements of discovery, colonization, and economic progress.

In the history of religious organizations of Western Ukraine in the 20-30th years of the XX century. The activity of such an early protestant denominational formation as the Ukrainian Evangelical-Reformed Church occupies a prominent position. Among UCRC researchers there are several approaches to the preconditions for the birth of the Ukrainian Calvinistic movement in Western Ukraine. In particular, O. Dombrovsky, studying the historical preconditions for the formation of the UREC in Western Ukraine, expressed the view that the formation of the Calvinist cell should be considered in the broad context of the Ukrainian national revival of the 19th and 20th centuries, a new assessment of the religious factor in public life proposed by the Ukrainian radical activists ( M. Drahomanov, I. Franko, M. Pavlik), and significant socio-political, national-cultural and spiritual shifts caused by the events of the First World War. Other researchers of Ukrainian Calvinism, who based their analysis on the confessional-polemical approach (I.Vlasovsky, M.Stepanovich), interpreted Protestantism in Ukraine as a product of Western cultural and religious influences, alien to Ukrainian spirituality and culture.

The work aims to show a peculiar perspective of looking at photographs taken on the eve of the broadly understood disaster, which is specified in a slightly different way in each of the literary texts (Stefan Chwin’s autobiographical novel Krótka historia pewnego żartu [The brief history of a certain joke], a poem by Ryszard Kapuściński Na wystawie „Fotografia chłopów polskich do 1944 r.” [At an exhibition “The Polish peasants in photographs to 1944”] and Wisława Szymborska’s Fotografia z 11 września [Photograph from September 11]) – as death in a concentration camp, a general concept of the First World War or a terrorist attack. Upcoming tragic events – of which the photographed people are not yet aware – become for the subsequent recipient an inseparable element of reality contained in the frame. For the later observers, privileged with time perspective, the characters captured in the photograph are already victims of the catastrophe, which in reality was not yet recorded by the camera. It is a work about coexistence of the past and future in the field of photography.
