Underground Quarry

В Южном Подмосковье до сих пор сохранилось несколько десятков разветвленных подземных заброшенных каменоломен, которые обнаруживают и посещают энтузиасты и которые являются объектами спелеотуризма. Протяженность некоторых из них превышает 3–5 км. В настоящее время эти объекты не являются учтенными месторождениями и расположены, как правило, под деревнями. В статье раскрыты геолого-тектонические, геоморфологические и социально-исторические предпосылки развития подземной камнедобычи в нижнем течении реки Пахра. На основе архивных материалов и преимущественно дореволюционных изданий реконструирована история заложения и развития крупнейших подземных каменоломен Московской области ― Съяновских. Установлено, что добыча в каменоломнях велась с начала XVII по конец XIX века. Описано современное состояние подземных горных выработок. Приведена краткая история туристического освоения Съяновских каменоломен. In the south of the Moscow Region, there are still some dozens of abandoned underground quarries whose forked tunnels still attract enthusiasts and speleo-tourists. Some underground quarries extend over more than 3–5 kilometres. Nowadays, these objects are no longer registered as quarries and are often situated under villages. The article treats geological, tectonic, geomorphological, social and historical prerequisites for the development of underground quarries in the lower flow of the Pakhra River. The author analyzes archival materials and pre-revolutionary publications to reconstruct the history of the Syanovskiye Quarries , the largest underground quarries in the Moscow region. The article maintains that the exploitation of the quarries started in the early 17th century, the quarries were closed in the late 19th centuries. The article describes the present state of the quarries and contains a brief history of tourism-related development of the quarries.

ResumoEste texto aborda a cidade de Penedo, situada no estado de Alagoas, e suas relações históricas, urbanísticas, arquitetônicas e intangíveis com o rochedo que lhe deu o nome. Penedo foi fundada durante o período colonial e foi uma das primeiras ocupações do que era a antiga capitania de Pernambuco, da qual foi desmembrado o estado de Alagoas. Atualmente o centro histórico de Penedo é tombado como patrimônio nacional. Este local está situado sobre a rocha da qual foi extraído material para a construção das edificações mais antigas e importantes do lugar, como o convento franciscano seiscentista de Santa Maria Madalena e o forte Maurício, levantado pelos holandeses também no século XVII. Embora destruído, o forte mantém-se vivo na memória dos habitantes da cidade. Examina-se a importância da rocha para o lugar, no passado e no presente, influenciando seu desenho urbano, a fisionomia dos seus edifícios e até a toponímia adotada para a cidade. Para o futuro, levanta-se a possibilidade da rocha ser reconhecida como patrimônio natural e cultural.Palavras Chave: patrimônio, paisagem, Alagoas, história urbanaAbstractTHE CITY THAT EMBRACES A ROCK: STORIES FROM PENEDO DO RIO SÃO FRANCISCO, ALAGOAS.

History Of

In 1939, at the height of her stardom, the actress Shanta Apte went on a spectacular hunger strike in protest against her employers at Prabhat Studios in Poona, India. The following year, Apte wrote a harsh polemic against the extractive nature of the film industry. In Jaau Mi Cinemaat? (Should I Join the Movies?, 1940), she highlighted the durational depletion of the human body that is specific to acting work. This article interrogates these two unprecedented cultural events—a strike and a book—opening them up toward a history of embodiment as production experience. It embeds Apte's emphasis on exhaustion within contemporaneous debates on female stardom, industrial fatigue, and the status of cinema as work. Reading Apte's remarkable activism as theory from the South helps us rethink the meanings of embodiment, labor, materiality, inequality, resistance, and human-object relations in cinema.

History Of

The article examines the main publications covering the centuries-old history of the Catholic Church in the lands of modern Bashkortostan, as well as partly affecting the interaction of local Catholic communities with coreligionists from other cities located in the South Urals, as well as in the Middle Volga region. Unfortunately, there are quite a few special studies on the history of this Christian denomination in our republic. Many works, in one way or another related to this issue, are of a general nature and contain a schematic listing of factual information, or are more devoted to the history of national communities, for which this religion is, to a certain extent, one of the most important elements of traditional ethnic culture. Here it is necessary to note, first of all, publications on the history of the Polish and German diaspora, which provide information about the participation of representatives of these communities in the creation of Catholic parishes and public associations associated with charity and education. At the same time, the significance of the confessional aspect is to a much lesser extent revealed in works on the history of Latvian immigrants from Latgale, Belarusians and Ukrainians from Volyn and Eastern Galicia, who, due to various circumstances, left their homes during the First World War, as well as other Catholic emigrants from Central and Western Europe, located in the Ufa province at the beginning of the XX century. In some articles on demography and striking features of social stratification, one can find indirect references to the presence of Catholics, but this information only It is noteworthy that most publications indicate the middle of the 17th century as the earliest dating of the appearance of believing Catholics in the South Urals, and evidence of missionary trips to the Eastern Hungarians during the 13th-15th centuries allows us to make hypothetical assumptions about their role in the life of the local religious community. It can be noted that the presence of a certain part of Catholics on the territory of Bashkiria during the 16th20th centuries. was associated with forced migration due to the fact that, as a result of military clashes, some of them were captured, as well as due to participation in activities that conflicted with the interests of the Russian leadership are considered, with a few exceptions, only in the context of the problem of the origin of the Bashkir people, most likely due to the modest results of the preaching.

The book was compiled on the materials of the scientific conference “Anthropomorphic and zoomorphic representations of nations and states in the Slavic cultural discourse” (2019), held at the Institute of Slavic Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences (Moscow) and devoted to the history of the nations’ personifications and generalized ethnic images in period of “imagined communities” formation. This process is reconstructing on verbal and visual sources and by methods of various disciplines. The historical evolution of such zoomorphic incarnations of nations as an Eagle (in the Polish patriotic poetry of the first third of the 19th cent), a Falcon (in the South Slavic and Czech cultures in the 19th cent), a Griffin (during the formation of the Cassubian ethnocultural identity) is considered. The animalistic national representations in the Estonian caricature of the interwar twenty years of the 20th cent., so as the functioning of the Bear’s allegory as a symbol of Russia in modern Russian souvenir products are analyzed. The originality of zoomorphic symbolism in Polish and Soviet cultures is shown оn the examples of para- and metaheraldic images in XXth cent. The transformation of the verbal and visual images of “Mother Russia” personifications in Russian Empire was reconstructed. The evolution of various allegories of ethnic “Self” and “Others” is presented by caricatures of 19th – 20th cent. in Slovenian periodic and in Russian “Satyricon” journal (1914–1918).
