Nakhichevan Armenian Colony on the Don (1779-1870

Кунсткамера, 2022

The article is devoted to the memory of the post-war past and the neighborship of Armenians and Azerbaijanis on the territory of the Nakhichevan ASSR. The study is based on field materials: observations, photographs, biographical interviews that were taken from 25 Armenian immigrants from Nakhichevan. The article describes the context of the neighborship: historical twists and turns, the socioeconomic situation in the region, the processes of urbanization and modernization. Remembering the past, the Armenians of Nakhichevan spoke about good neighborly relations, the gradual reduction in the number of Armenians, the borders and common features that were established between Armenians and Azerbaijanis. Apart from the distinctions between one’s own and the other’s through holy places, religious customs, marriage and educational strategies, there were also practices of rapprochement. These include both the Soviet ideological project and the common power structures, sovkhozes. In addition, Nakhichevan Armenians very often recall the “kirva” institution — the so-called “godparent” relations that occur between the families of Armenians and Azerbaijanis. After the Second Karabakh War, the memory of the neighborship is being reassessed. The consequence of the new situation has been the actualization of these memories.

The place of the institution of "caretakers" in the system of self-government of the Nakhchivan Armenian colony on the Don (1779-1870) is considered on the basis of archival sources. Immediately after the resettlement of more than 14 thousand Crimean Armenians to the lower reaches of the Don River, the formation of the self-government system began, which included "overseers" as "intercessors" of the settlers. They were under the authority of the secretary of the magistrate. They were mentioned in Nakhichivan since 1784 (in 1782-1783 - the town governor). The duties of the caretakers were detailed in the "Instruction to the caretakers of Armenian villages of Nakhichivan Armenian Magistrate's Department". The author concludes that the "wardens", who existed both in the city and in the villages as "guardians and protectors", soon enough turned into ordinary police officers and existed in this capacity until the reforms of the 1860s.

Introduction. The study is connected with the issues of electronic corpora of historical sources and diachronic linguistic corpora and is based on office documents of the 18 th c. reserved in the Mikhailovsky Stanitsa Ataman archive fund (State Archive of Volgograd region). Methods and materials. The article considers donosheniya and reports as the main documents that were submitted from lower to higher authorities and had "donoshenie" (message, report) and "report" (report) designation. Solving source meta-markup problems the author examines the origin and meaning of words "donoshenie" and "report", analyzes the content and functions of the documents, their text format and verbal formulas representing the components of the form. Analysis. The paper shows that the words have different origin, but common semantics reflecting the document function. Word "report" entered the Russian language in the early 18 th century as a synonym for the original "donoshenie". Initially, relevant documents were not distinguished, but gradually they were differentiated not only by name. Donosheniya can come from military men and civilians often contain a message and request. Reports are used mainly between host and stanitsa atamans, other military officials and are mostly informative documents. Reports are also often used as accompanying documents for other documents. The text format of donoshenie and report has similarities, but can be represented by different verbal formulas. As an accompany document report has a more concise and simple structure. Results. The author concludes that including donoshenie and report to the created source corpus as independent documents is necessary for faciliting their search and more exact representation of using language units. Standard speech markers can be applied for automatic recognition of texts as well. Волгоградский государственный университет, г. Волгоград, Российская Федерация Аннотация. Введение.

Self-government was preserved in the Armenian colony of New Nakhichevan from the moment of its creation to the reforms of the second half of the XIX century on the basis of the rights and privileges granted by Empress Catherine II. According to the Astrakhan Judicial book of Armenia, the police and the judicial system were also included in the structure of the government. The article, based on unpublished archival sources, statistical and reference publications, as well as scientific literature and memoirs, examines the history of the police service, its structure and the order of activities in the late XVIII and the first half of the XIX centuries. Special attention is paid to the repeated attempts of the Central government to deprive Nakhichevan of its own police service and the unsuccessful struggle of Nakhichevan for the preservation of the privilege of having its own police service.

The article is devoted to the negative effects of the Emancipation Reform of 1861 on the Don region. The author shows that the result of this reform was mass resettlement of peasants in Mius District without the right of choice of land and compensation for real estate. The main attention is paid to the passive resistance of the inhabitants of one village attempts to evict them on unprepared areas, selected by their former landlord. Results of the research are the findings that the interests of the peasants living on the land of the yurt were completely ignored during the conduct of the Emancipation Reform, and that until 1868 the local officials refused to go on any compromise. Only after the complete failure of the brutal policies local administration made concessions and allowed peasants to select sites for relocation.
