The book of memoirs of Norwegian entrepreneur Egil Abrahamsen about his work in Arkhangelsk province in 1908—1928 is analyzed. The author highlights stories related to the revolutionary events of 1917, foreign intervention, and the establishment of the Soviet regime in the European North of Russia. Attention is drawn to the description of the life and traditions of the inhabitants of the White Sea area: the Pomors, representatives of the Orthodox clergy, Old Believers, peasants, lumbermen and sawmill workers. It is concluded that the book expands readers’ understanding of the history and culture of Russia and forms a respectful attitude to the citizens of Russia and Norway.

The author suggests social & cultural problems considered economic & technological aspect of surviving the Old Believer religious community within historical context of the Russian North on the base of published narrative sources. It’s known about shipbuilding, navigation, trade and manufacture tradition of the Vygoretsia priestless Old Believer cloister —a great center of the Ortodox religious minority in the XVIIIth century Russian Empire. But what meant cooperation within the Vyg river Pomorian priestless “Old Belief”community for national commerce and trade on the European North?

This article is based on the fi eld work data of Pushkin House related to the history of the Anoufrievsky Skete that existed at the Winter Coast of the White Sea in the 18th — early 20th centuries. Specific storylines and motives are discussed, selected by the authors from the body of the recorded narratives concerning the Skete. The locals reproduce the historical narratives, including the legendary tales about the fi rst settlers, the life of the Skete community, the Old Believers’ wealth, recombining the history of the site in various ways; eschatological motives are superimposed on the speculations concerning the decline of the Pomor villages.

Church Law

The foundations of Russian Christianity—gradual conversion; absorption of church law; native ascetic monasticism (Kiev’s Monastery of the Caves) and cults (Boris and Gleb, the Vladimir Theotokos icon); characteristic architecture; and crafting of patriotic and didactic sermons (Ilarion), hagiography (Nestor), chronicles, and pilgrimage itinerary—all hearken back to pre-Mongol Rus’. Under Mongol protection, the Rus’ Church flourished; the anti-Catholic, the late Byzantine hesychastic devotional and artistic package, representing a distinct brand of Orthodoxy, arrived, and communal monasticism, spearheaded by Sergii of Radonezh, spread. From the mid-fifteenth century, autocephalous resistance to Church Union with Rome, and unification and expansion under Moscow accompanied Nil Sorskii’s hesychastic treatise, Iosif Volotskii’s theological–didactic–inquisitorial Enlightener, and his followers’ promotion of a Moscow-centred national historiography, sacred monarchy, and pious household guide. The newly established Moscow patriarchate (1589) aided survival and resurgence after civil war and foreign intervention (1604–1619), while the practical need for better-educated Orthodox clerics from (then Polish–Lithuanian) Ukraine and Belarus contradicted pretences of native purity. Would-be Orthodox reformers in the 1640s differed over how much Westernizing education and ritual flexibility were permissible to bring Russian Orthodoxy in line with Ukraine and the Greeks. Patriarch Nikon’s high-handed liturgical reforms (1655), more ruthlessly supported by church and state power after a synod deposed him for political overreach (1666), catalysed the variegated dissenting sectarians commonly called ‘Old Believers’. The century ended with a Moscow Academy (1687–) complementing Kiev’s (1632–) and conflicting, alterative Westernizing visions among Europe-oriented elites.

Abstract Adaptation of threespine stickleback to freshwater involves parallel recruitment of freshwater alleles in clusters of closely linked sites, or divergence islands (DIs). However, it remains unclear to what extent the DIs and the alleles that constitute them coincide between populations that underwent adaptation to freshwater independently. We examine threespine sticklebacks from ten freshwater lakes that emerged 500–1500 years ago in the White Sea basin, with the emphasis on repeatability of genomic patterns of adaptation among the lake populations and the role of local recombination rate in the distribution and structure of DIs. The 65 detected DIs are clustered in the genome, forming 12 aggregations, and this clustering cannot be explained by the variation of the recombination rate. Only 21 of the DIs are present in all the freshwater populations, likely being indispensable for successful colonization of freshwater environment by the ancestral marine population. Within most DIs, the same set of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) distinguish marine and freshwater haplotypes in all the lake populations; however, in some DIs, freshwater alleles differ between populations, suggesting that they could have been established by recruitment of different haplotypes in different populations.

Discussion of the genesis of kyanite-amphibole associations in amphibolites has so far been limited to assemblages involving common hornblende (1). Striking examples of an association of kyanite with rhombic amphibole (gedrite) now known from the Archaean gneisses of the White Sea area, Russia, visited by the Northern Excursion of the International Congress in 1937, probably provide one of the first records of this paragenesis in the literature.1 The rocks of the region include coarse-grained garnet and kyanite rich gneisses associated with amphibolites in the Shueretsky district of Karelia, and have been described by Ignatiev (2).

The present article deals with the dialect of Kojda, a village situated on the White Sea coast in the Mezen' rajon of the Archangel'sk oblast'. The dialects of the Archangel'sk oblast' are poorly described, because most of the area is not included in the Dialect Atlas of the Russian Language (DARJa).The dialects spoken to the north of the Northern Dvina developed from the Old Novgorod dialect of the first Russian settlers, who came in the Middle Ages. Kojda was founded at a later stage, in the 17th century, presumably by people from neighbouring settlements. A large proportion of the present population, however, are descendants of Old Believers from Novgorod.The main part of the article consists of an enumeration of the main dialectical features of Kojda. These features were found on a tape recording of an 88-year old inhabitant of the village. These dialectal char-acteristics were compared with data from several publications dealing with dialects from the Archangel'sk oblast', in particular with dialects from the Pinega rajon, which is situated near Kojda.Most features are typical of the Archangel'sk dialects. An exception is the comparatively open pronunciation of the Old Russian jat'. Some data suggest that there are more features which are not typical of all dialects of the Archangel'sk oblast', but further research is needed. My findings suggest that the dialect of Kojda is more similar to the Pinega dialects than might be expected from the literature, though it seems to be less archaic.

The geological structure of two freshwater lakes (the Verkhneye and the Vodoprovodnoye) located near the White sea biological Station of the Moscow State University (the Kandalaksha Bay of the White sea) is considered for the first time according to the GPR data. The morphology of the top of the Archean basement, the structure of the Quaternary sedimentary cover and bottom relief were studied. Shallow marine sediments overlying the rocks of the Archean and a sequence of lacustrine-marsh sediments were identified using the drilling data in the Quaternary cover. Structural schemes were constructed for the main reflecting horizons, while isopach schemes were generated on the basis of the main sequences. The values of electrical resistivity and absorption coefficient are calculated and the possibilities of their use for the delineation of GPR facies are considered.
