I am mostly interested in how religion and culture interact with each other within the fields of art and theology. My current research is dedicated to the secular and sacred aspects of the Garden of Eden and Christian Paradise.

In 2018 I got my MA in Medieval and Religious Studies from the Central European University (CEU) in Budapest. For my Master's thesis I have been working on the Greek to English translation and philological analysis of the treatise "On Paradise" by Niketas Stethatos, the Byzantine theologian of the 11th century.

In 2015 I got my BA in History from the Lomonosov Moscow State University 'Lomonosov' (MSU). While studying in Russia I have been participating in archeological excavations of the Graeco-Scythian site "Chaika" in Yevpatoria, Crimea (2012, 2013) and the Graeco-Sindic settlement "Hermonassa" (2015) on the Taman peninsula.

Philological and Historical Analysis of the Treatise "On Paradise" by Niketas Stethatos

The main aim of my work it to reconstruct the historical and philological background of the treatise in order to provide a better understanding of his work. The thesis includes three chapters, intending to answer the following questions: 1) In which historical circumstances did Niketas create the treatise and what kind of agenda did he have? 2) Which authors did Niketas rely on and how did he apply their ideas on the philological level? 3) Which exegetical models did he use and how were they reflected in the composition of the treatise? In my thesis I claim that composing his treatise, Niketas followed a specific “politics” of referencing, implying a particular hierarchy of authors, expressed in the author’s choice of this or another way of quoting. While some of them he quoted word to word, the traces of others can only be distinguished after the deep analysis of the treatise’s structure. Therefore, I argue that the treatise On Paradise had different levels of meaning, corresponding with the Byzantine exegetical schemes, already well formed by the eleventh century.
