Ippolitov G.M., Filatov T.V. (Samara). Teach-civilizational approach to cognition of history: symbiosis or acceptable research algorithm? Discussion of reasoning (2nd article)………………………… 13

If we say that the problems of the formation and civilizational approaches to the knowledge of history have a rich historiography, then this will not be the whole truth. The fact is that the historiography mentioned above is located in a broadly debatable, and sometimes in a polemical, research field. A relatively large number of domestic studies devoted to the formational and civilizational approaches to the knowledge of history (especially in the Soviet and somewhat less in post-Soviet historiography) were carried out in the format of “or – or”, and often in the form of “pro et contra”. The authors of the article left the historiographic tradition of the Soviet and post-Soviet historiography to consider two extraordinary theoretical and methodological approaches, indicated above in the format of “or – or”, and, moreover, in the format of “pro et contra”. In addition, the authors of this article propose to consider these approaches not separately, but as a “formational civilization”, which, it can be assumed, will cause many critical judgments. However, in the category “formational-civilizational approach to the knowledge of history” that we propose, there is not a mechanical, but a dialectical connection. It is clear that our material is entirely debatable (but not polemical) in nature. We do not pretend to the dictum of common truths, which, as we know, are true, but only until the first bump. The second article addresses the following issues: the categories “formational (or monistic) approach to the knowledge of history” and “civilization (or pluralistic) approach to the knowledge of history” in the discussion field; so is it a symbiosis or an acceptable algorithm?; outside the formation-civilization approach; search for new research algorithms.

Keywords: formational (or monistic) approach to the knowledge of history, civilizational (or pluralistic) approach to the knowledge of history, symbiosis, research algorithm, formational-civilizational approach to the knowledge of history, G.

The article presents the results of the study of liberal-historical thought of the late 19th – early 20th centuries in the context of historical and comparative comparison of the program provisions of the heritage of Russian liberal historiography with modern projects of transformation of the education system. The actual problems of historical development of education practice, introduction of innovative approaches in university education are analyzed. This work presents a derivation of a deeper multi-level and competency-based approaches. The projects of university education reform presented by scholars were based on cognitive models of knowledge development in society at critical times. The theoretical model found its embodiment in practice in the pedagogical activity of historians, in the organization of the School for Advanced Studies in the Social Sciences in Paris. Liberal historiography of the late 19th – early 20th centuries is considered as a social phenomenon that led to the change of the scholarly paradigm, the formation of a new type of research culture. The article is based on archival materials and monographic research.

Keywords: educational environment of the University, educational strategies and technologies of education, liberal historiography, teaching methods, historical education, School for Advanced Studies in the Social Sciences.

 

 

HISTORIOGRAPHY

 

Pogodin S.N., Li Jingcheng (Saint Petersburg). Soviet historiography of Russian ecclesiastical mission in Beijing (second part) ……………………………………………………………………………………………………. 31

SERGEY NIKOLAEVICH POGODIN — Doctor of Historical Sciences, Professor, Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University, 29, Polytechnicheskaya str., St. Petersburg, 195251, Russian Federation. E-mail: pogodin56@mail.ru

This article is focusing on the research of Soviet historians’ study of the Russian Ecclesiastical Mission in Beijing. The Soviet historical period, in the history of national historical science, is evaluated ambiguously. It was qualitatively different from the pre-revolutionary and modern stages of the development of historiography in Russia. Built on the basis of Marxist ideology, Soviet historiography was based on the conviction that economics and class struggle are the only correct force for the development of society. The authors of this article believe that it is necessary to take into account the positive experience of Soviet historiography. The works of Soviet Russian historians on the history of the Russian ecclesiastical mission in Beijing are of a positive nature and make a definite contribution to Russian historical science. The Russian ecclesiastical mission in Beijing throughout its existence has played a significant role as a representative of the Russian Empire during the Qing Dynasty. In the Soviet period, the study of religion, missionary work was difficult. Therefore, the history of the Mission and the activities of its members were mentioned only on the pages of publications devoted to issues of Oriental studies, within the framework of the history of Russian Sinology. In the first decade of Soviet power, historical science paid great attention to the social structure of China. In the 20s-30s of the 20th century, the theory of “commercial capitalism” was widely spread in Soviet historiography, developed as a special formation in Russian history, defining the internal and external policies of the tsarist government with commercial capital. The second half of the 20th century was characterized by significant changes in the political life of the country, which was also reflected in historical science. Complex scientific works appeared, scientific articles were published, theses of reports of conferences devoted to the history of the Russian spiritual mission in Beijing and its members. A characteristic feature of these works is that they focus on the scientific achievements of the Mission.

Keywords: Russian ecclesiastical mission in Beijing, historiography, Soviet historical science, history of Russia, history of China, Sinology, history of Orthodoxy.

The article shows how the resettlement policy of various conquerors, mainly of the Safavid shahs of Iran, influenced the formation of the ethnic and religious pattern in medieval Derbent. The Turkic element in the city’s population began to penetrate as far back as the 11th – 13th centuries. The most significant changes in the ethno-confessional environment of the city occurred as a result of the resettlement policy of the Shahs of Iran in the 15th – 18th centuries. Iranian shahs Ismail, Tahmasp I and Abbas I were actively engaged in colonization of Derbent and its districts. The Bayat, Rumlu, Curci, Sursur and other tribes resettled from different regions of Iran were mainly Shi’i-speaking ethnic groups that professed Shiism, and they also formed Turkic-speaking Arabs and Yak-Yar-Yar women tribes’ basis of the formation of the modern Azerbaijani population of Derbent.

Keywords: Medieval Derbent, migration policy, Turkic ethnic groups, Shiism, Azerbaijanis.

The article is devoted to the little-studied topic of the activities of the Protestant Church of Korea to correct the mores of the Korean people in the spirit of Christian values under conditions of Japanese domination. The Korean Protestant Church professed Puritanism, preaching ascetic life, honesty, poverty. Alcohol, smoking, gambling, and extramarital cohabitation was prohibited. Therefore, it can be said that the upbringing of the faith of the Korean people was a movement of abstinence in the broad sense. Protestants began to widely propagandize the ideas of abstinence and a whole movement of the same name arose. The abstinence movement, initiated by the Protestant churches and the church and supported by many public organizations, set as its goals the education of the Korean people in the spirit of sobriety, frugality, and Christian morality. Members of the movement were guided not only by the ideas of correcting the existing mores, but also looking to the future, hoping to lay the foundations of a prosperous Korean state with their activities. The author examines in details the activities carried out by Protestant organizations to promote a sober way of life, thrift, moral purity and concludes that this activity had a certain effect and found understanding among Korean Christians, but little touched the foundations of the behavior of the majority of the nation.

Keywords: Abstinence movement, Protestant Church, sobriety, frugality, morality, Korean Women’s Christian Association.

The article discusses issues related to the process of approval of the Russian authorities in the north-eastern Caucasus, measures, means and resources that the imperial government used to incorporate this region into the Russian state. Practices of swearing in the Dagestan rulers on the oath of citizenship of Russia, as well as various government models applied by the Russian administration in the north-eastern Caucasus in the first half of the 19th century, are considered. It is noted that the treaties between the representatives of the Imperial Administration and the Dagestan rulers recognized the internal self-government and the extraterritoriality of the political entities that they brought into Russian citizenship. It is emphasized that in the first half of the 19th century the Imperial power failed to create a unified administrative and governance system in Dagestan. The establishment of the latter began only after the end of the Caucasian War and the formation of the Dagestan region in the 1860s.

The article is devoted to the analysis of the most typical critical assessments of the activities of the Special Conference presented in the national historiography for discussing and combining state defense activities during the First World War. The sources of these assessments are mainly works written in the Soviet period and still not the subject of critical analysis. The authors attempted to abstract from the usual approaches to such assessments, to show the conditionality of many shortcomings in the activities of the Special Conference on Defense by the extraordinary conditions of wartime, the inexorable logic of the complex military-political and socio-economic situation in Russia during the First World War. In addition, the authors demonstrated the positive consequences of the work of the extraordinary bodies of the military-economic mobilization system, led by the Special Defense Conference, their contribution to the solution of both the current tasks of supplying the army and more promising questions of the development of the national economy. It was especially emphasized and shown that in the years of the First World War, a significant advance was made in the process of the formation of the domestic military-industrial complex, primarily its managerial and production components.

WOOSEOP LEE — Postgraduate student, Department of Archaeology, Faculty of History, Lomonosov Moscow State University. 119192, Russian Federation, Moscow, Lomonosovsky prospect st., 27/4. 35201, Korea, Daejeon, Daedukdaero 415, Sanga APT 108–1307. E-mail: wooseop@mail.ru

The article is a study of the horse image in the Xiongnu animal style at the end of I millennium BC – the beginning of I millennium AD based on the materials from burial grounds of Transbaikal region and Mongolia. There have been found many accessories made in the form of horse figures. They are known to be found in the burial sites of Duurlignars, Ilmovaya Padi, Noin-Ula, Dyrestuy, and some other ruins. The author pays particular attention to the stylistic features of the shape of horses, analysis of common and different features in the expression of animal shapes according to the territory. The question of the functional purpose of these accessories remains debatable. Presumably, figures in the form of a horse were pinned to clothes on a horseman’s chest, as evidenced by the findings of fabric fragments, and they were characteristic amulets in the military environment. Such a tradition of costume decoration is often found in nomadic societies.

E-mail: mashadunina@mail.ru

The article raises an important for the art of the Italian Renaissance theme of coexistence of temporary artistic associations and permanent workshops of painters in the framework of one artistic space. If in the period of Quattrocento, the artist’s workshop was the main structural cell in the artistic environment of Italian cities, by the second half of the Cinquecento the form of collective work of large creative associations became more rational. The popularity of piecework and the lack of opportunities for education resulted in the fact that the artists whose work that time determined the development of Roman art – Taddeo and Federico Zuccaro, Girolamo Muziano, Cesare Nebbia, Federico Barocci – were less interested in the constant presence of a certain set of assistants in their workshops. Often, they hired various young men to perform specific orders.

In 1828, under the influence of the political factor, the government reformed the gymnasium again, striving to develop a “uniform” school policy aimed at strengthening social stability, characterized by tight control over the gymnasium, a change in the management structure, and the level of education. The purpose of the gymnasium according to the statute of 1828 is to prepare for the university and raise children of the upper class. Classical languages remain dominant. Changes in the content of education was insignificant and manifested in a small redistribution of hours. Changes to the methods were not provided, since they corresponded to the political goal of the government – educating the performer. Under the influence of economic and political factors, in 1849 the content of education changed: from the fourth grade, the gymnasium course began to be divided into Latin and legal departments. It substantiates the strengthening of the educational function of the Law of God as a means of educating loyal subjects who are convinced of the benefits of the main directions of government policy. In 1852, along with the classical one, a new type of gymnasium appeared – with natural history and law. Economic development requires the training of highly qualified technical personnel, and the purpose of this type of gymnasium is to prepare for higher specialized educational institutions. Thus, the contradiction between the principle of estate and the requirements for the further economic development of society was resolved. In the content of education, emphasis was placed on the subjects of the natural-mathematical cycle. Traditionally, the dogmatic type of training is preserved in the new type of gymnasium. Thus, the history of the formation of a gymnasium in Russia suggests that the dynamism of the goals of the gymnasium, the content of education and teaching methods is determined by factors of a political and socio-economic nature.

Keywords: goals, methods and content of gymnasium education, second quarter of the 19th century, classical and real gymnasiums.

Soldatenko V.F. (Kyiv). «Make the impossible possible»: Georgy Pyatakov’s drama ……………………………… 137

The article briefly describes and assesses activities of prominent politician and statesman Georgy Leonidovich Pyatakov in 1929–1937. On the one hand, it was his “finest hour”. He could have a truly great influence on socialist construction implementation plans, formation of a powerful Soviet economy and its rapid development. This unshakable revolutionary, ardent communist saw the highest meaning of his life, the embodiment of the most cherished aspirations, the triumph of majestic creative ideals. On the other hand, at the same time, a seemingly completely illogical and therefore difficult to comprehend drama was brewing. Its finale was tragic – bright, talented, loyal to people and country person was accused of fictional criminal acts and became the victim of political repression apogee year – the thirty-seventh. The fate of G.L. Pyatakov, as if in a drop of water, reflected the entire complexity and contradictory nature of the “Stalinist leap into socialism” era. Historians continue to investigate this phenomenon very difficult, often controversially, manipulating policy for ideological purposes.

Keywords: socialism, the Congress of the VKP(b), industrialization, “Stalinist economic assault”, political repression.
