Calendar Age in Russian Tradition
The article examines issues related to the introduction of calendar age into the cultural practices of Russians. Chronological age calculation was practically not used in folk culture. Age stages were marked by traditional rituals. Calendar accounting of the age of each parishioner was conducted by the church. Birth, baptism, marriage and death data were recorded in metric records. Decrees of government bodies were crucial for disseminating the c…

Every era has its own “mainstream scholarly style” — the generally accepted way of writing academic texts in а given era and place. To today’s tastes, many academic texts written a century and more ago seem verbose and impersonal, weighed down with dispensable reflections and ruminations. Soviet academic style was radically different from English-language publications of the time, but these days many Russian academic texts read like translations …

Object in Museum Dialogues
The world of things has been and remains the foundation of museum work. The article deals with the peculiarities of interaction with museum objects in an ethnographic museum. Such interactions (dialogues) are aimed at constructing ideas about the past and the alien, since an ethnographic museum is focused not only on the past (like any museum), but also on other (alien) cultural traditions. When considering things, the starting point is that they…

It is applied to help specialists in the history of art and in discourse analysis as well as in linguistics and physical anthropology who analyse big corpora and construct models. Participants in the "Forum", a written round table, are representatives of the social sciences and humanities. They describe their contact with such applications in their p…
Element Sequence in the Name Formula in Russian Tradition
Цель настоящей статьи заключается в том, чтобы выявить исторические и идеологические подтексты перехода от традиционного для России использования последовательности «имя — отчество — фамилия» (ИОФ) к новой последовательности: «фамилия — имя — отчество» (ФИО). Этот переход начался в 1930–1940-е гг. в советской официальной сфере (прежде всего в паспортных данных и в других документах), а в дальнейшем распространился и на неофициальное общение. Изме…
The Brezhnev Era in Anthropological Retrospective

Soviet and Post-Soviet Identities
Since the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991, questions of identity have dominated the culture not only of Russia, but of all the countries of the former Soviet bloc. This timely collection examines the ways in which cultural activities such as fiction, TV, cinema, architecture and exhibitions have addressed these questions and also describes other cultural flashpoints, from attitudes to language to the use of passports. It discusses definitions of p…

Ritual Forms of Gender Identification in Children
Among the eastern Slavs, as among many peoples, a child is regarded as something of a genderless being until a certain age. Gender-neutral terms (such as ditia relative to infants), or collective ones (such as meloct'[small change], tvarnia[stuff], blaznota[blessed bunch], and others) were used relative to infants. Indicating the uncompletedness of their status is, for example, the Russian custom of calling an infant a boy, regardless of its gend…
The Problem of "The Individual and Tradition" in the Works of J. Pentikkainen
Recently the well-known Finnish ethnologist, linguist, and folklorist J. Pentikkainen has published a series of works devoted to the study of the world-view of Marina Takalo (1890-1970), a remarkable bearer of traditional Karelian culture. (1) The results of almost a decade (1960-1969) of J. Pentikkainen's intensive work with Marina Takalo can without hesitation be called unique. Here, probably for the first time in world science, a single person…
