metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: The article examines characteristics of celebrating anniversaries of important events of the
  national history of pre-Petrine period in Russia in the 19th — early 20th centuries. The author
  analyzes features of the celebrations in Novgorod in 1862 on the occasion of the 1000th
  anniversary of Russia; the 900th anniversary of the Christianization of Rus’ in Kiev and other
  cities of the Russian Empire in 1888; the 300th anniversary of the Romanov dynasty in 1913. In
  addition, the article discusses the details of the celebration of the 300th anniversary of annexing
  Siberia to Russia; anniversaries of the founding of such cities as Moscow, Omsk, Samara,
  Stary Oskol, Tobolsk. The paper also evaluates the role assigned to the heroes and events of
  the Russian medieval history (Rurik, the Christianization of Rus’, Vladimir The Great, Mikhail
  Fedorovich, Alexei Mikhailovich, etc.), in the framework of celebrations. The author comes to
  the conclusion that acting tsars (Alexander II, Alexander III, Nicholas II) pursued quite specific
  goals participating in such celebrations. The main aim of such events was to demonstrate
  the engagement of authorities withpeople, to show continuity of power (from Rurikids to the
  Romanovs) and prevailing social harmony in Russia. The author comes to the conclusion that
  the epoch of the Russian middle ages played a significant role in the commemorative practices
  of the Russian state and society of the 19th — early 20th centuries, which in turn was a manifestation
  of not only the state but also social order.
