As genres, hagiography and the novel are close in their intention to show the path of a personality and to depict the whole life of a hero. However, the value orientations of a novelistic hero and a hagiographic hero are opposite: from the very beginning, the latter denies what the former is striving for — the success in worldly life. From his very birth, the main hero of E. G. Vodolazkin’s novel Laurus has the inclinations of a hagiographic hero, but at the beginning of his independent life, he behaves not in a hagiographic, but in a novelistic way, which leads him to tragedy: his beloved woman dies without the repentance and ritual that are important in terms of hagiography. The article examines how the hero, trying to save the soul of his beloved woman, turns his life into a constant feat of serving people. On this path he reconsiders the meaning of life’s goals on a general and individual level, the categories of time and how time is filled with events, and the horizontal (“worldly life”) and vertical (“a life leading to Heaven”) paths. The hero goes through four distinct periods in his life and, accordingly, changes his name four times, but a certain monad of his personality remains unchanged. Growing in holiness, the hero saves the life of a young woman — he assists her when she delivers her baby — and that compensates for the loss of his beloved one and their unborn son. Since after the hero's death his unburied body does not decay and eventually disappears, it can be assumed that the hero achieves the goal of his life — the salvation of his beloved woman's soul, as well as his own. The method of analytical reading allows us to trace how in his narration the author overcomes the antinomy of the novelistic and hagiographic principles, and how these principles influence each other and grow into each other.

The article analyzes the ambiguous motives and reasons that in the early 1920s, both at home and in the diaspora, influenced the literary personality of the writer in such a way that it involuntarily acquired the features inherent in the Smenovekhovstvo movement. For the first two years in Germany, where he fled to escape the unbearable conditions of life in Russia, Alexey Remizov retained the right to return to Petrograd. Due to this voluntary position of a ”temporary” emigrant in the history of the literary process of the early 1920s, a number of events of his creative life was captured in the landscape of the Smenovekhovstvo. The article presents the first analysis of Remizov's essay ”The Hook. Petersburg’s Memory” (1922), which, at first glance, supports N. Ustryalov's program aimed at organizing the return of emigrants to their homeland. Individual perception of the Smenovekhovstvo ideologemes is discussed using the example of the behavior of two writers in a specific ideological situation. One is the case of Remizov as a “temporary” emigrant writer in 1921- 1923, the other is the case of Prishvin as a writer who, after the October coup, took the position of an “internal emigrant”. Based on Prishvin's diary, the article reveals the tragic story of the perception of Remizov's essay “The Hook” (1922) and the attitude of the two writers to the concept of ”patriotism”, one of the main motives of the “return home” movement. The article offers a new perspective on the history of the relationship between the two like-minded authors and restores the context of their unknown correspondence from 1922-1923, fragments of which have survived in Prishvin's diaries, and in one letter that was published as Prishvin's essay ”Sopka Mair ” (“The Hill Mair ”, 1922). The essay was addressed to Remizov and contained an ”answer ” to the essay ”The Hook”. This article is part of a study of Remizov’s works, viewed as a reflections of individual experience in the history of the first wave of Russian emigration.
本文分析了在20世纪20年代早期，作家的文学个性在国内和海外受到的模糊动机和原因的影响，从而不由自主地获得了斯莫诺维霍夫斯特沃运动的固有特征。在德国的头两年，阿列克谢·雷米佐夫(Alexey Remizov)为了逃避俄罗斯难以忍受的生活条件而逃往德国，他保留了返回彼得格勒的权利。由于在20世纪20年代早期文学进程的历史上，他自愿的“临时”移民的地位，他的创作生活中的一些事件被捕捉到斯莫诺韦霍夫斯特沃的风景中。本文首次分析了雷米佐夫的散文《钩子》。《彼得堡的记忆》(1922)，乍一看，它支持乌斯特利亚洛夫旨在组织移民返回家园的计划。本文以两位作家在特定意识形态情境下的行为为例，讨论了个人对斯莫诺韦霍夫斯特沃意识形态的看法。一个是列米佐夫在1921- 1923年作为“临时”移居国外的作家，另一个是普里什温在十月政变后作为作家采取了“国内移居者”的立场。本文以普里什温的日记为基础，揭示了对列米佐夫随笔《钩子》(1922)的悲剧性看法，以及两位作家对“返乡”运动的主要动机之一——“爱国主义”概念的态度。这篇文章为这两位志趣相投的作家之间的关系历史提供了一个新的视角，并恢复了他们在1922年至1923年之间不为人知的通信背景，这些通信的片段在普里什文的日记中幸存下来，其中一封信作为普里什文的文章“Sopka maair”(“The Hill maair”，1922)发表。这篇文章是写给雷米佐夫的，里面有对那篇文章《钩子》的“回答”。本文是对雷米佐夫作品研究的一部分，被视为对俄罗斯第一波移民历史中个人经历的反映。

The article presents a study and a publication of two rare canons to John the Baptist. The canon with the opening words “Plodonosen tsvetets” (“A fertile flower ”) is known in two versions. One of them is found in two fourteenth-century manuscripts located in the Russian State Archive of Ancient Acts (Fonds 381, Nos. 114 and 116). The other survived in just one copy – a seventeenth-century manuscript in the Kirillo-Belozerskoe collection (No. 232/489) in the National Library of Russia. This version is peculiar in that it is a combination of the original troparia of this canon and the troparia borrowed from the canon “Molchanie starche” (“Elder’s silence”), which the Studite typikon assigned to the Afterfeast of the Nativity of the Forerunner. The second canon, which according to its character can be called “rejoicing”, is known from the only manuscript of a sixteenth-century psalter in the Solovetskoe collection (No. 762/872) in the National Library of Russia. It consists of common greetings – the anaphoric chairetismoi.

This article attempts to investigate details regarding the life of Archpriest Nikolai Alekseevich Konoplev (early 1865 – 1937), a Vologda ethnographer, historian, hagiographer. His writings about the saints of the Vologda region contain unique historical information and still possess significant scholarly value. This study is based on historical data found in pre-revolutionary periodicals, archival documents and recently published articles. It corrects some inaccurate statements about the final years of Archpriest Nikolai’s life found in scholarly literature.

The Kunstkamera, founded by Peter the Great as a collection of various rarities in St. Petersburg in 1714, over the time acquired rich collections of ethnographic materials from different parts of the world and became the largest depository of artifacts of traditional cultures of the peoples of Russia. This article examines the history of some of the most important collections of ethnographic materials of the Karelians of the Olonets and Tver regions and of the Russians from the territory of the modern Republic of Karelia and Tver oblast. Most of these materials were gathered at the beginning of the 20th century by the professional photographers M. A. Krukovsky and A. A. Belikov, as well as by some littleknown local historians, such as D. T. Yanovich and M. V. Mikhailovskaya. One of the main objectives of this research was to collect biographical data about these people and to study their activities as collectors of the ethnographic materials preserved in the Kunstkamera collections. These collections contain materials pertaining to everyday life and folk art that reflect changes in the mainly rural folk culture of the Karelians and Russians. The collections can be used for studying these cultural changes and for reconstructing some issues of the past.
由彼得大帝于1714年在圣彼得堡建立的Kunstkamera收藏了各种稀有物品，随着时间的推移，从世界各地收集了丰富的民族志资料，成为俄罗斯人民传统文化文物的最大存放处。本文考察了奥罗涅茨和特维尔地区的卡累利阿人和来自现代卡累利阿共和国和特维尔州境内的俄罗斯人的一些最重要的民族志材料收藏的历史。这些材料大多是在20世纪初由专业摄影师m·a·克鲁科夫斯基(M. A. Krukovsky)和a·a·别里科夫(A. A. Belikov)以及一些不太知名的当地历史学家(如D. T. Yanovich和M. V. Mikhailovskaya)收集的。这项研究的主要目标之一是收集这些人的传记数据，并研究他们作为kunstcamera收藏中保存的民族志材料的收藏家的活动。这些藏品包含与日常生活和民间艺术有关的材料，反映了卡累利阿人和俄罗斯人主要农村民间文化的变化。这些藏品可以用来研究这些文化变迁，也可以用来重建过去的一些问题。

From 1998 to 2013, the author of this article participated in seven expeditions to the Pudozh region of Karelia and to Lake Vodlozero together with Konstantin Kuzmich Loginov, who studied this area as an ethnographer for many years. The most memorable were the first and the last expeditions, which are discussed in the article. The main objective of both expeditions was to detect and study the Karelian tradition of karsikko (from the Karelian word karsia, which means “to cut branches”). Karsikko are special signs on trees that served both practical and religious mythological purposes. The latter function was most prominent in old cemeteries, of which we also intended to make an inventory. The 1998 expedition, which Loginov organized and guided, turned out to be surprisingly rich in collected material. It opened up a whole region of Eastern Europe for further study. The trip to the river Vodla was much more “intimate”, and our tasks were more modest. First of all, we had to confirm the existence of the karsikko tradition there. Although this tradition was already well studied in the neighboring territories, it could have different features, since each area was special and could surprise with details. As a result, the field research performed at the end of the 20th — beginning of the 21st century covered most of the Pudozh region and the neighboring Kenozero. It confirmed the ubiquitous existence of the karsikko tradition in this region.

The article considers literary self-definition of Fyodor Dostoevsky at the starting point of his career as a writer. Its purpose is to reveal connections of the young author with contemporary writers and his place in the literary process on the basis of specific texts. The article continues the research presented in two articles published in 2013 and examines a wider range of texts related to Dostoevsky’s first novel, Poor Folk. By applying the principles of comparative analysis to the repeated narrative elements, the author of the article shows that Mikhail Voskresensky’s story “Zamoskvoretskie Tereza i Faldoni” (1843), which is considered to be parodied in Poor Folk, has just one common feature with Dostoevsky's novel: names of one main and one secondary character. The names refer to a popular sentimental novel by Nicolas Germain Léonard (1783), retold with disapproval by N. M. Karamzin, while Voskresensky’s story was unworthy even of caricature for the insignificance of its content and its poetics. It should also be noted that not a single motif that exclusively belongs to this story was reproduced by Dostoevsky at any time later. The situation is quite different in the case of Alexandre Dumas’s novel The Conspirators (Le Chevalier d’Harmental), published in a newspaper in 1841–1842 and as a separate edition in 1843. The novel’s plot twists, main characters, some features of their personalities and some details regarding what happens to them are reflected in Poor Folk. But this was not done for reasons of parody. Dostoevsky chose the novel by the famous Frenchman only to promote his own world view and the new principles of art – the nascent realism with its unadorned “truth of life”, harsh and often tragic reality in contrast to the benevolent romanticism

Its purpose is to reveal connections of the young author with contemporary writers and his place in the literary process on the basis of specific texts. The article continues the research presented in two articles published in 2013 and examines a wider range of texts related to Dostoevsky’s first novel, Poor Folk. By applying the principles of comparative analysis to the repeated narrative elements, the author of the article shows that Mikhail Voskresensky’s story “Zamoskvoretskie Tereza i Faldoni” (1843), which is considered to be parodied in Poor Folk, has just one common feature with Dostoevsky's novel: names of one main and one secondary character. The names refer to a popular sentimental novel by Nicolas Germain Léonard (1783), retold with disapproval by N. M. Karamzin, while Voskresensky’s story was unworthy even of caricature for the insignificance of its content and its poetics. It should also be noted that not a single motif that exclusively belongs to this story was reproduced by Dostoevsky at any time later. The situation is quite different in the case of Alexandre Dumas’s novel The Conspirators (Le Chevalier d’Harmental), published in a newspaper in 1841–1842 and as a separate edition in 1843. The novel’s plot twists, main characters, some features of their personalities and some details regarding what happens to them are reflected in Poor Folk. But this was not done for reasons of parody. Dostoevsky chose the novel by the famous Frenchman only to promote his own world view and the new principles of art – the nascent realism with its unadorned “truth of life”, harsh and often tragic reality in contrast to the benevolent romanticism","PeriodicalId":426957,"journal":{"name":"Texts and History: Journal of Philological, Historical and Cultural Texts and History Studies","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125163290","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The article provides a textual analysis and a publication of the Old Slavonic text of the Homily on the Man Born Blind along with a Russian translation. The homily is preserved in 14th-century re-translated triodion miscellanies (the so-called новоизводные триодные Панигирики), where it is ascribed to Athanasius of Alexandria. The original Greek text of the homily is unknown. This study considers the textual peculiarities of the homily and the relationship of its Slavonic manuscripts. Moreover, the article analyzes the composition of the homily and presents a list of texts that were examined in search of the Greek original. The edition of the Slavonic text, along with the Russian translation, is placed in the Appendix.
