МІЖ ЗАКОНОДАВСТВОМ ТА РЕАЛІЯМИ ЖИТТЯ: ПОВСЯКДЕННЯ РОДИН ПАРАФІЯЛЬНОГО ДУХОВЕНСТВА ХАРКІВСЬКОЇ ЄПАРХІЇ У ХІХ – НА ПОЧАТКУ ХХ СТ.
BETWEEN LEGISLATION AND THE REALITIES OF LIFE: EVERYDAY LIFE OF FAMILIES OF THE PARISH CLERGY OF THE KHARKIV DIOCESE IN THE 19TH - EARLY 20TH CENTURIES.

Summary/Abstract: The paper presents an attempt to analyze everyday life of families of the parish clergy in the Russian Empire in the 19th - early 20th centuries against the background of changes in secular and ecclesiastical legislation through the example of the Kharkiv diocese. Analysis of the patterns of everyday life of family members of the parish clergy makes it possible to reconstruct a certain life style of people belonging to the clerical order. Studies of features of life style of the clergy allow determining how effective the efforts of church and secular authorities of the Russian Empire were to affect the everyday life of the representatives of the particular estate. Effectiveness of "reform from above" concerning the clergy, especially in the mid-19th century, enables the author to question the "comprehensive nature" of the Great Reforms of Alexander II, particularly with regard to certain estates, such as the clergy.
