Ivinskikh, G. P. Milestones and Peculiarities of the Development of the Theatre Life in Perm During the Pre-Revolutionary Period (1895-1902)

Abstract: The article is devoted to the analysis of the brightest period in the pre-revolutionary development of the theatre arts in Perm. It has been proved that the frontier epoch conventionally called ‘the Silver Age’ was rather intense and fruitful even in the province. Due to a rich theatre life and outburst of creativity, the cultural life in Perm had the highest level of response to the demands of the times, generally growing interest towards theatre art and new esthetic searches typical for different kinds of art at the turn of centuries. The main research methods used by the author when writing the present research article were: historical, empiric and analytical methods. The author also used the methods of comparison and analogy. The scientifi c importance and novelty of the article are the following. The author has established that during the period studied there were qualitative changes not only in the sense of the self of people but also in their perception of the city. In fact, in those years Perm signifi cantly ‘advanced’ in acquiring the fame of a theatre city. According to the author of the article, here it is appropriate to refer to V. Dal’s dictionary and his defi nition of ‘fame’ as a ‘famous in a certain quality’. Therefore, the entire period of the pre-revolutionary development of the city was associated with the cultural life of the city reaching the highest level of response to the demands of the times, generally growing interest towards theatre art and new esthetic searches typical for different kinds of art at the turn of centuries due to a rich theatre life and outburst of creativity. These are the main results of the ‘seven years of theatre’ in Perm that had a good impact on the level of further development of the theatre life in the city.
