Title of the article | On the issue of dating of construction periods of the Church of St. John Chrysostom in the village of Ivanovskoye |
Abstract. | Often, when comparing the results of field studies of cultural heritage sites with information from bibliographic sources, one has to deal with inaccuracies and errors in names, dates, and authorship. Determining the reliability of information reported about historical and cultural monuments is the central task of “historical criticism”. The purpose of the work is to determine the construction periodization of the Church of St. John Chrysostom in the village of Ivanovskoye (Republic of Tatarstan). The objectives include a brief historical and architectural description; comparison of archival materials and results of field studies of the church; clarification of the dating of the construction of the church. Results. Previously unpublished archival documents were introduced into scholarly discourse; а recurring error was identified in all bibliographic sources, i.e. incorrect dating of the construction of the church and the bell tower and incorrect identification of authorship. This error was discovered as a result of field research and proved by the found archival material with drawings and a brief description. Conclusions. A critical analysis of the sources made it possible to correct the error in the dating of the object. The example of this study demonstrates the possibility of reconstructing the stages of the “life” of an almost three-hundred-year-old monument based on a comparison of the results of field and bibliographic research. |
