Советский кинофильм по мотивам произведений Михаила Булгакова «Бег», «Белая гвардия» и «Чёрное море». Картина повествует о первых эмигрантах послереволюционной России. 1920 год. Гражданская война в России близится к завершению. После вторжения Красной Армии в Крым начинается исход всех, кто искал спасения от «окаянных дней» (по словам Ивана Бунина) революции. В этом страшном течении оказываются рядом самые разные люди, выброшенные революцией на произвол судьбы. «Тараканьи бега» стамбульско эмиграционной жизни приводят русских интеллигентов в хаос и они теряют почву под ногами. Извечным рефреном повторяется вечная тема любви и возмездия. Судьба как страшный сон. В конечном итоге получилось одно из самых трагических полотен о русской эмиграции.
Memory Eternal for Brother Warren Abel C.F.X
Memory Eternal (Greek: Αἰωνία ἡ μνήμη; Church Slavonic: Вечная память, Vechnaya Pamyat) is sung at the end of an Eastern Orthodox funeral or memorial service. The same exclamation is used by those Eastern Catholic Churches which follow the Byzantine Rite. It is the liturgical counterpart to the Western Rite prayer Eternal Rest. The eternal memory mentioned in the prayer refers to remembrance by God, rather than by the living, and is another way of praying that the soul has entered heaven and enjoys eternal life.
August 7, 2012 - Xaverian Brothers Generalate: Baltimore Maryland
We learned early this afternoon of the death of Brother Warren Abel (Brother Melvin). The nurse at Xaverian House found him in his room there this morning. Brother Warren had been suffering from a variety of ailments over the past few years, including congestive heart issues, as well debilitating arthritis and lower back pain. He was 80 years old and had been a member of the Congregation for 63 years.
Brother Warren was a native of Brooklyn, growing up in Resurrection Parish in the Gerritsen Beach section of that borough. After attending the parish elementary school, Warren was fortunate enough to attend Regis High School, the all scholarship Jesuit high school in Manhattan. Among his classmates at Regis was Archbishop Tom Kelly, OP, the former Archbishop of Louisville, KY, who predeceased Warren by 8 months. After graduating from Regis, Warren entered the Congregation in September 1949 and was invested with the Xaverian habit and given the name Brother Melvin on the Feast of St. Joseph (March 19), 1950. He made his first profession of vows on St. Joseph Day in 1952, and his perpetual vows on the same day in 1955.
A naturally gifted student, Warren excelled in the sciences, especially Biology. He graduated from Catholic University in 1955 with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Biology, receiving the distinction of Magna Cum Laude, Phi Beta Kappa, Sigma Xi. Warren's first mission was to St. John's Preparatory School, Danvers where he taught Science, Mathematics and Religion from 1955-1959. From 1959 -- 1962 he taught at the recently opened Our Lady of Good Counsel High in Wheaton, while also teaching Biology part-time at Xaverian College, Silver Spring. He also began his graduate studies in Biology at Catholic University during the summers from 1960-65, receiving an MS in Botany in 1965. In 1962, Warren was assigned to Xaverian High School, Brooklyn to teach Science, English and Religion until 1964, when he was transferred to Mount St. Joseph, Baltimore where he would be head of the Science department in addition to his duties teaching Science and Religion. He would return to Shore Road, Brooklyn to serve as Assistant Principal at Xaverian from 1968 -- 1982. In 1982, he was appointed acting principal, and from 1983 -- 1993 served as principal until the school's administrative structure was changed to a president-principal model. For the next 9 years he served as the attendance clerk in the school office, officially retiring in 2002.
Brother Warren will ever be associated with Xaverian High School, not just because of the nearly 45 years he was missioned there until failing health brought him to Xaverian House in Danvers, but because of his love for and dedication to the young men of Xaverian High School. He was a superb teacher, an extremely dedicated and fair administrator, and a role model to the young teachers and administrators whom he mentored. His photo has a place of honor in the current president's office. More than a dedicated and talented teacher/administrator, Warren was a faithful Religious who found nourishment
and solace in community prayer and daily Eucharist. Although he was reluctant to leave his beloved Brooklyn, where the sound of operas could be heard floating under his doorway each afternoon, when he settled into life at Xaverian House, he was most appreciative of the community spirit, the sense of prayer, and the excellent care provided by Robin Rowell and the staff at Xaverian House. Although he missed his many friends and former colleagues at Xaverian, he cherished life at Xaverian House, even regretting at times that he had not made the move earlier.
Besides his Brothers in religion, Brother Warren is mourned by the Xaverian High School family and his many friends and colleagues and their families.

SUMMARY
=======
The Moscow–Constantinople schism, also known as the Orthodox Church schism of 2018, is a schism which began on 15 October 2018 when the Russian Orthodox Church unilaterally severed full communion with the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople. This was done in response to a decision of the synod of the Ecumenical Patriarchate on 11 October 2018 to move towards granting independence (autocephaly) to the orthodox Church of Ukraine, to reestablish the stauropegion of the Ecumenical Patriarch in Kiev, to revoke the legal binding of the letter of 1686 which led to the Russian Orthodox Church establishing jurisdiction over the Ukrainian Church, and to lift the excommunications which affected clergy and faithful of two unrecognized Orthodox churches in Ukraine.Those two churches (the UAOC and the UOC-KP) were competing with the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (Moscow Patriarchate) and were, and still are, considered schismatics b ...

SUMMARY
=======
The Eastern Orthodox Church, officially the Orthodox Catholic Church, is the second-largest Christian church, with approximately 200–260 million members. As one of the oldest religious institutions in the world, the Orthodox Church has played a prominent role in the history and culture of Eastern and Southeastern Europe, the Caucasus, and the Near East. It operates as a communion of autocephalous churches, each governed by its bishops, called a Holy Synod. The church has no central doctrinal or governance authority analogous to the Catholic pope, but the Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople is recognised by all as primus inter pares (first among equals) of the bishops.
Eastern Orthodox theology is based on the Nicene Creed, and the church teaches that it is the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic church established by Jesus Christ in his Great Commission, and that its bishops are the successors of Christ's apostles. It maintains that it practices the original Christian faith, passed down by sacred tradition. Its patriarchates, reminiscent of the pentarchy, and autocephalous and autonomous churches reflect a variety of hierarchical organisation. Of its innumerable Sacred Mysteries, it recognises seven major sacraments, of which the Eucharist is the principal one, celebrated liturgically in synaxis. The church teaches that through consecration invoked by a priest the sacrificial bread and wine become the body and blood of Christ. The Virgin Mary is venerated in the Eastern Orthodox Church as the Mother of God, honoured in devotions.
The Eastern Orthodox Church shared communion with the Roman Catholic Church until the East–West Schism in AD 1054, triggered by disputes over doctrine, especially the authority of the Pope. Before the Council of Chalcedon in AD 451, Oriental Orthodox churches also shared in this communion, separating primarily over differences in Christology.
The majority of Eastern Orthodox Christians live in Eastern Europe, Greece, and the Caucasus, with smaller communities in the former Byzantine regions of the eastern Mediterranean, Africa, and to a decreasing degree also in the Middle East due to persecution. There are also many in other parts of the world, formed through diaspora, conversions, and missionary activity.

SUMMARY
=======
Saint Sava (Serbian: Свети Сава / Sveti Sava, pronounced [sʋɛ̂ːtiː sǎːʋa], 1174 – 14 January 1236), known as The Enlightener, was a Serbian prince and Orthodox monk, the first Archbishop of the autocephalous Serbian Church, the founder of Serbian law, and a diplomat. Sava, born as Rastko (Serbian Cyrillic: Растко), was the youngest son of Serbian Grand Prince Stefan Nemanja (founder of the Nemanjić dynasty), and ruled the appanage of Hum briefly in 1190–92. He then left for Mount Athos where he became a monk, with the name Sava (Sabbas). At Athos, he established the monastery of Hilandar, which became one of the most important cultural and religious centres of the Serbian people. In 1219 he was recognized as the first Serbian Archbishop by the Patriarchate exiled in Nicea, and in the same year he authored the oldest known constitution of Serbia, Zakonopravilo, thus securing full independence; both religious and political. Sava is regarded the founder of Serbian medieval literature.
He is widely considered as one of the most important figures of Serbian history. Saint Sava is canonized and venerated by the Serbian Orthodox Church, as its founder, on January 27 [O.S. January 14]. His life has been interpreted in many artistic works from the Middle Ages to modern times. He is the patron saint of Serbia, Serbs, and Serbian education. The Church of Saint Sava in Belgrade is dedicated to him, built where the Ottomans burnt his remains in 1594 during an uprising in which the Serbs used icons of Sava as their war flags; the church is one of the largest church buildings in the world.

SUMMARY
=======
Karl Marx (German: [ˈkaɐ̯l ˈmaɐ̯ks]; 5 May 1818 – 14 March 1883) was a German philosopher, economist, historian, sociologist, political theorist, journalist and socialist revolutionary.
Born in Trier, Germany, to a Jewish middle-class family, Marx studied law and philosophy at university. Due to his political publications, Marx became stateless and lived in exile in London for decades, where he continued to develop his thought in collaboration with German thinker Friedrich Engels and publish his writings, researching in the reading room of the British Museum. His best-known titles are the 1848 pamphlet, The Communist Manifesto, and the three-volume Das Kapital. His political and philosophical thought had enormous influence on subsequent intellectual, economic and political history and his name has been used as an adjective, a noun and a school of social theory.
Marx's theories about society, economics and politics—collectively understood as Marxism—hold that human societies develop through class struggle. In capitalism, this manifests itself in the conflict between the ruling classes (known as the bourgeoisie) that control the means of production and the working classes (known as the proletariat) that enable these means by selling their labour power in return for wages. Employing a critical approach known as historical materialism, Marx predicted that, like previous socio-economic systems, capitalism produced internal tensions which would lead to its self-destruction and replacement by a new system: socialism. For Marx, class antagonisms under capitalism, owing in part to its instability and crisis-prone nature, would eventuate the working class' development of class consciousness, leading to their conquest of political power and eventually the establishment of a classless, communist society constituted by a free association of producers. Marx actively pressed for its implementation, arguing that the working class should carry out organised revolutionary action to topple capitalism and bring about socio-economic emancipation.Marx has been described as one of the most influential figures in human history, and his work has been both lauded and criticised. His work in economics laid the basis for much of the current understanding of labour and its relation to capital, and subsequent economic thought. Many intellectuals, labour unions, artists and political parties worldwide have been influenced by Marx's work, with many modifying or adapting his ideas. Marx is typically cited as one of the principal architects of modern social science.

Timur (Persian: تیمور Temūr, Chagatai: Temür; 9 April 1336 – 18 February 1405), historically known as Amir Timur and Tamerlane (Persian: تيمور لنگ Temūr(-i) Lang, Timur the Lame), was a Turco-Mongol conqueror. As the founder of the Timurid Empire in Persia and Central Asia, he became the first ruler in the Timurid dynasty. According to John Joseph Saunders, Timur was the product of an islamized and iranized society, and not steppe nomadic.Born into the Barlas confederation in Transoxiana (in modern-day Uzbekistan) on 9 April 1336, Timur gained control of the western Chagatai Khanate by 1370. From that base, he led military campaigns across Western, South and Central Asia, the Caucasus and southern Russia, and emerged as the most powerful ruler in the Muslim world after defeating the Mamluks of Egypt and Syria, the emerging Ottoman Empire, and the declining Delhi Sultanate. From these conquests, he founded the Timurid Empire, but this empire fragmented shortly after his death.
Timur was the last of the great nomadic conquerors of the Eurasian Steppe, and his empire set the stage for the rise of the more structured and lasting Gunpowder Empires in the 16th and 17th centuries. Timur envisioned the restoration of the Mongol Empire of Genghis Khan (died 1227). According to Beatrice Forbes Manz, in his formal correspondence Temur continued throughout his life to portray himself as the restorer of Chinggisid rights. He justified his Iranian, Mamluk, and Ottoman campaigns as a re-imposition of legitimate Mongol control over lands taken by usurpers. To legitimize his conquests, Timur relied on Islamic symbols and language, referred to himself as the Sword of Islam, and patronized educational and religious institutions. He converted nearly all the Borjigin leaders to Islam during his lifetime. Timur decisively defeated the Christian Knights Hospitaller at the Siege of Smyrna, styling himself a ghazi. By the end of his reign, Timur had gained complete control over all the remnants of the Chagatai Khanate, the Ilkhanate, and the Golden Horde, and even attempted to restore the Yuan dynasty in China.
Timur's armies were inclusively multi-ethnic and were feared throughout Asia, Africa, and Europe, sizable parts of which his campaigns laid to waste. Scholars estimate that his military campaigns caused the deaths of 17 million people, amounting to about 5% of the world population at the time.He was the grandfather of the Timurid sultan, astronomer and mathematician Ulugh Beg, who ruled Central Asia from 1411 to 1449, and the great-great-great-grandfather of Babur (1483–1530), founder of the Mughal Empire, which ruled parts of South Asia for over three centuries, from 1526 until 1857. Timur is considered as a great patron of art and architecture, as he interacted with intellectuals such as Ibn Khaldun and Hafiz-i Abru.
