On Saturday, November 18, students from Prof. Morse’s course The Cultures of Medieval Rus’<\/em><\/a> (RUSSN 180) and Prof. Lippmann’s The Making of Modern Russia<\/em> (HIST 120) visited St. Mary’s Orthodox Cathedral<\/a> and the Museum of Russian Art (TMORA<\/a>).<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

At St. Mary’s, students were able to put their knowledge of Orthodox Christian ritual, ritual space, and sacred art to the test. They “read” and discussed the iconostasis, frescoes, icons, and architecture of St. Mary’s with a generous and knowledgeable member of the lay community.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

After visiting St. Mary’s, the group stopped for lunch at Kramarczuk’s Deli<\/a> and then traveled to the storage of the Museum of Russian Art to view examples of folk art and a special performance by the folk performance group Nitka<\/a>. The performance was followed by a visit to TMORA to view the current exhibitions “The World of the Russian Folk Tale”<\/a> and “Nadezhda Glazunova: Festive Art.”<\/a> We extend a special thanks to TMORA curator Dr. Maria Zavialova and Nitka!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
