Abstract
collection of Tikhomirov (Tikhomirov No. 448), preserved in
the Academic Library of the Siberian Branch of the Russian
Academy of Sciences. Founded in the 1921 at the Vyg Hermitage
– a cultural center of the Old Believers’ priestless tradition, it
contains verses and psalms, popular in this milieu, notated in the
system of znamenny chant notation. The chants can be subdivided
into several groups of subjects. Some of them describe the events
of the Old and New Testaments, whereas others form a group of
penitent poems. Three of them narrate about the victory of Peter
the Great over the Swedes. Of special interest are the chants
dedicated to teachers and mentors of the hermitage, primarily,
Andrei Denisov.
One of the traits of the Vyg culture is connected with the
development of Baroque prosody. The combination of syllabic
verse and neumatic writing creates a stylistic synthesis in which
the old and the new do not reject, but complement each other.
This circumstance is what forms the topical ield of the article.
The semantic content and stylistic image of the chants make it
possible to examine them in the context of the culture of the
second half of the 17th and irst half of the 18th centuries, the time
period that witnesses an integration of the elements of traditional
culture with the culture of the Early Modern Age. The analyzed
landmark conirms the conception most commonly accepted in
Russian humanitarian scholarship, namely, that of succession
and continuity between the old and new periods of national
culture.
Keywords: chants, salms, syllabic verse, znamenny chant,
