with the establishment of the correct order of inheritance of the princely tables (Daniil and Vasilki transferred their estates to their sons) and more peaceful relations between the princes, the circumstances that impeded the strong position of princely power in the western half of the south disappeared. Rus'. The boyars of Galich had to come to terms, the veche order ceased to exist and the princely power strengthened. The doctrine of the installation of princely power from above appears noticeably. The fall of the times was facilitated to a certain extent by the influx of foreigners who filled the cities of southwestern Rus' and also entered the princely squad. The princes patronized foreigners, wanting to increase trade among others. The long-standing desire of individual communities for independence manifested itself in southwestern Rus' for the last time in 1289. It was immediately suppressed, and to a certain extent the influence was exerted by the fear of the Tatars; they supported the new order, although it cannot be said that they laid the foundation for it in southwestern Rus'. The strengthening of princely power did not initially lead to the removal of the prince from the people. Such was the position of this power in southwestern Rus' in the second half of the 12th century. Among the mass of the population of southwestern Rus', the chronicle of this time distinguishes between “boyars” and “ordinary people.” The boyars, including the Galician ones, who had previously fought with the princes for so long, condescended to the role of the prince’s retinue, servants, service people. At the same time, many of them were hereditary landowners. In particular, hereditary land ownership began to develop in southwestern Rus' from the time of Lev Daniilovich. In the XIV century. Serving princes join the category of boyars. Some of the boyar families, after the conquest of Galich by the Poles, entered the ranks of the Polish nobility at the beginning of the 14th century. The boyars have strengthened again, and the beginnings of a new city life are appearing. Townspeople in the Chronicle of the 10th century. were once called “mestiches”. Meet in 1873-77
The beginnings of the attachment of godparents are also expected, which, however, retained complete personal freedom. All this took place in the western half of southern Rus', the main phenomenon of the internal history of which in the period from 1250 to 1350 should be recognized as the gradual isolation of the upper class of society from the rest of the people, the weakening of the national spirit in this class and the formation of the “papacy.”* In the eastern half of southern Rus', which was under the direct power of the Tatars and where the community was not suppressed, at that time pro¬ the preparation of the Cossacks proceeded. In general, the events of the internal life of this period were important in the subsequent history of both halves of southern Rus' and largely explain the decline in the independence of the western half and subordination to foreigners.
D. member A. A. Kotlyarevsky, reported “On current Russian historical literature*, specifically about the following newly published books: a) Essay on a trip to European Turkey, V. I. Grigorovich (2nd edition) M. 1877. The book was compiled from scientific reports submitted to the Ministry of Public Education, and was originally placed in "Scientific Notes of the Kazan University*. (1848, volume). The importance of the book has long been recognized by science: with this "Essay* the handwritten riches of Balkap, hitherto barely vaguely sensed from the news of Arch. Porfiry, were opened to Slavic archeography. The book is also important for many documents and extracts from manuscripts, in it printed, and according to many new philological notes and observations. Unfortunately, the second edition was printed without those additions that were probably in the deceased author’s copy, and the reprint is generally faulty. Here, by the way, it would be useful to recall the thorough review of the book by I. I. Sreznevsky, in Northern Review 1848 No. 3, pp. 765-772, and those interesting details about. Grigorovich and his travels, which were made about the 2nd edition by Prof. M.P. Petrovsky in the Bulletin of Europe 1878, No. 1. b) YapSha signuot, \I\ 1877, published by Yablonovsky, V and II volumes: both are punishable by Ukraine and contain the most interesting documents in the Little Russian dialect, in Latin letters, according to the Siis of the 18th century. In addition to their important ethnographic significance, these monuments are of philological interest. presenting examples of beautiful, pure parodic language. The preface to both volumes contains scientific research from
