Summary/Abstract: The article describes the emergence of local narrative models, ritual practices that are born in the minds of local historians of theRussian North identifying their knowledge with a “place of memory” (P. Nora), which does not quite correspond to the real historicalprocess of self-refl ection of local folklore culture. The studied essays of local historians show the mutual infl uence and interchangeof social and cultural elements of different northern Russian traditions, distinguished by their “behavior” and “appearance”, perhapsby their content, and most importantly – by the architectonics of folk singularity.
