THE PAST AND PRESENT IN THE REVOLUTIONARY EVERYDAY LIFE OF M. M. BOGOSLOVSKY (BASED ON MATERIALS FROM THE HISTORIAN’S DIARY) 1920s
Abstract
The article analyzes the diary entries of the professor of the Moscow Imperial University M. M. Bogoslovsky in 1917. The concept of “internal emigration” is questioned in relation to the strategy of his behavior. The features of the theological perception of the revolutionary everyday life of 1917 are determined through the prism of the historian’s professional experience. The historical events of Russian and world history are revealed, which Bogoslovsky considered the markers, determining the nature of the revolutionary transformations of 1917. It is concluded that the professional historical view of M. M. Bogoslovsky on the 1917 revolution allowed him to include revolutionary events in the context of world and national history and put them on a par with the events of the Time of Troubles in Russia, as well as with the English and French revolutions. It is through a comparison of the 1917 revolution with significant historical events that the historian on the pages of the diary comes to pessimistic forecasts about the future of the Russian state. Through the analysis of diary entries, the author of the article revealed the theological significance of a continuum between the life experience in the past and the present, since it is the historical experience, in his opinion, that is the connecting link in history.
