Hoover Institution awarded NEH grant to process and microfilm collections of Holy Trinity Seminary Archive

The Hoover Institution has received a generous grant in June 2007 from the National Endowment for the Humanities for a 1.5-year joint project with Holy Trinity Seminary to process and microfilm the most significant archival holdings of Holy Trinity Russian Orthodox Seminary in Jordanville, NY. The primary goal of the project is to make these collections available to scholars in the reading rooms of the Hoover Institution Archives and Holy Trinity Seminary by the end of 2008.

Vladimir von Tsurikov (pictured to the right), Director of the Jordanville Archives and Acting Dean of the Seminary, has been assigned as Project Archivist for the project, and will be at Hoover through the end of the Fall semester 2008.

Von Tsurikov will give a campus talk on the archival holdings "Imperial Legacy in the Collections of Holy Trinity Seminary, Jordanville, NY" on Thursday, Oct. 23 at 12 noon in Encina West 208. This talk is free and open to the public.

The archive of Holy Trinity Russian Seminary was founded in 1982 in Jordanville, NY, as a repository for documents and artifacts relating to Russian history and culture. Over the past 25 years it has acquired significant and unique materials relating primarily to the history of the Russian post-1917 emigration, pre-revolutionary Russia and the Civil War period.

Among the Materials processed as part of this project are the papers of V. K. Abdank-Kossovskii, Archbp. Apollinarii (Koshevoi), General S. V. Denisov, General P. N. Krasnov, V. A. Maevskii, K. N. Nikolaev, N. D. Talberg, as well as organizational records of the Ob'edinenie chinov Kornilovskogo udarnogo polka, Russkii Obshche-voinskii soiuz (ROVS), the Russian secondary school in Paris (Russkaia sredniaia shkola v Parizhe), and the Suvorovskii kadetskii korpus. The total number of processed materials numbers 270 boxes.
