New approaches to the study of written cultures of the New World in the light of the
calendar “the phenomenon of 2012”
// History magazine - researches.
2011. ¹ 3.
P. 5-15.
URL: https://en.nbpublish.com/library_read_article.php?id=58360
Abstract:
The hieroglyphic inscription of the classical period on the Mayan Monument 6 of the settlement of El Tortuguero
(Mexico) contains the date corresponding to the year 2012, which have led to the appearance of the so-called “phenomenon
of 2012” in the last decade. Reading ancient texts requires a special approach, the basis for which has been developed by the
decoder of Maya letters V. Knorozov. Reading a hieroglyphic text on the monument 6 with relation to other textual sources
allowed to determine that the so-called “prophecy” is nothing more than a designation of the position of the Mars in its
synodic (unlike sidereal) period at the time of the date 13.0.0.0.0 in the calendar entry of the Maya.
Keywords:
“The phenomenon of 2012”, the El Tortuguero site, Mesoamerica, the Maya civilization, the Maya hieroglyphic writing, the texts of the Maya, codes of the Maya, calendar, astronims, ancient astronomy, Mars, mythology, world model, the ancient scientific knowledge, ethno-semiotic, the methodology of ancient texts reading.

Abstract:
The author studies the synthesis of the humanities in the Russian science in XIX–XX centuries. One of
the topics, which is considered in this article, is a synthesis of history, sociology and psychology in the practice of several
educational and scientific centers: Russian School of Social Sciences in Paris, Psychological Institute named after
V.M. Bekhterev, Russian Sociological Society named after M. Kowalewsky. The author concludes that the interdisciplinary
approach had been implemented more consistently in the teaching process (curricula) of these centers and it had not
received sufficient development in their scientific activities.

URL: https://en.nbpublish.com/library_read_article.php?id=58362
Abstract:
The “Noviy Grad” journal was published in Paris from 1931 to 1939, and it was a publication that
reflected the views of Fedotov G.P. (1886-1951), Berdyaev N.A. (1874-1948), Stepun F.A. (1884-1965) and many other
leading thinkers of the emigration. The journal was financed by the American protestant organization YMCA (Young
Men Christian Association). Many authors of the journal were members of the Order of the Russian intelligentsia,
they believed in fate of Russia. In an effort to reestablish the Order, the “Noviy Grad” members dreamed of a victory over
the Bolsheviks, relying on the Soviet intelligentsia, who, joining the culture of the Order, eventually had to gain self-awareness of the elite and take the path of fighting against the Bolsheviks, undermining the spiritual foundations of the
Soviet system with various ideological currents of emigration.

Spanish conquistador in the stream of history

2011. ¹ 3.
P. 64-72.
URL: https://en.nbpublish.com/library_read_article.php?id=58367
Abstract:
The article discusses the features of historical thinking of the Spanish conquistadors — people, who were
born in the crossing of epochs, spaces and cultures, and who embodied the traits of a crucial era of the Middle Ages to
the New Era. As heirs of the medieval way of thinking and culture, they verbally professed Christian fatalism, which
was inseparable from the faith in God’s favor and miracle. In fact, by personal example they have asseverated the
effectiveness of individual effort and goal setting, which opened a vast aria for personal initiative, and was embodied
in the act that summed anthropocentric concepts and ideas that fed the spirit of the Renaissance. They understood the
course of historical process, and themselves as its driving force, and they have become outstanding representatives of the
Renaissance type of person.
