Ladonina, Natalia A. ORGANIZATION OF THE CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES IN VLADIKAVKAZ IN THE SECOND HALF OF THE 19TH CENTURY Print

Keywords: libraries, reading rooms, public readings, cultural and educational activities, state ideology, Ossetia.

The article deals with the issues related to the emergence and functioning of new organizational forms of cultural and educational work with broad strata of the urban population in the post-reforms Vladikavkaz. Libraries, reading rooms, public readings were among most significant forms of such work. Due to the fact that these institutions performed important functions of disseminating socially important information among the masses, their activities were strictly controlled by the state and relied on a specially developed legislative and legal framework. But despite tight government control, such forms of leisure organization became real foci of education for the poorest categories of citizens, who gradually joined the achievements of Russian and world culture and science. In this context, of interest is the relationship between the specific manifestations of cultural and educational activities in Vladikavkaz and the state policy of regulating social activity in the social-cultural and educational spheres in the post-reform decades. The article based on legislative acts, documentary sources and historiography data shows that changes in domestic state policy, determining the change of official ideology, had a significant impact on the organizational forms of cultural and educational activities on the outskirts of the empire, particularly in Ossetia. Complementing the school system, libraries, reading rooms, public readings, and similar institutions, besides performing educational and educational functions, carried a significant ideological burden, meeting the demands of the government for the formation of all-Russian citizenship among all peoples living within the Russian Empire.
