SCRIPT
An 18-tonne bell, named 'Alexander Nevsky', arrived at the Saint Alexander Nevsky Monastery in St Petersburg on Monday.
After being cast in Kamensk-Uralsky in the Sverdlovsk region, the bell travelled through 11 Russian cities including Yekaterinburg, Ufa, Samara, Saratov, Penza, Ryazan, Moscow, Yaroslavl, Vologda, Cherepovets and Tikhvin.
It is to be installed in the belfry of the Troitsky Cathedral in the grounds of the monastery in October. The belfry is currently undergoing repairs.
The bell is named after 13th century Russian hero Aleksandr Nevsky, the Grand Prince of Novgorod and Vladimir who was sainted by the Orthodox Church because of his military victories over the Swedes and Germans.

Да судимы будете! Советский Нюрнберг 1947 - Великий Новгород 2019 - спектакль о суде над фашистами
Онлайн-премьера театральной реконструкции Советского Нюрнберга на канале ИА REGNUM.
Документальный спектакль воспроизводит (в основных моментах) последний публичный суд советского народа над нацистскими преступниками, Советский Нюрнберг, который состоялся 7-18 декабря 1947 года в Великом Новгороде.
Да судимы будете - первая сценическая реконструкция открытого суда над 19 нацистскими преступниками (Новгород, 7–18 декабря 1947 года). Это был последний открытый суд в РСФСР над нацистами, на нем разбирались убийства более 34 000 советских граждан из Новгородской, Псковской, Ленинградской и Полоцкой (Витебской) областей.
Зверства гитлеровцев в Новгороде были полностью доказаны в ходе следствия и подтверждены свидетельскими показаниями.
Но именно новгородский процесс был освещен в хронике гораздо меньше, чем аналогичные процессы, поэтому реконструкция Да судимы будете, основанная на достоверных документах и воспоминаниях, ценна как свидетельство.
80% сценария документального спектакля - цитаты из документов, остальные фрагменты воссозданы по материалам аналогичных судов. В том же зале суда прошли шесть показов, их посетили 3500 зрителей.
Идея и постановка реконструкции принадлежат заслуженному артисту России Даниилу Донченко, сценаристы - к.и.н. Дмитрий Асташкин и к.ф.н. Сергей Козлов. Режиссеры – заслуженный артист России Анатолий Устинов и Сергей Семенцов.

SUMMARY
=======
The degrees of Eastern Orthodox monasticism are the stages an Eastern Orthodox monk or nun passes through in their religious vocation.
In the Eastern Orthodox Church, the process of becoming a monk or nun is intentionally slow, as the monastic vows taken are considered to entail a lifelong commitment to God, and are not to be entered into lightly. After completing the novitiate, there are three degrees of or steps in conferring the monastic habit.

SUMMARY
=======
The kontakion (Greek: κοντάκιον, also transliterated as kondakion and kontakio; plural Greek: κοντάκια, kontakia) is a form of hymn performed in the Orthodox and the Eastern Catholic liturgical traditions. The kontakion originated in the Byzantine Empire around the sixth century CE. It is divided into strophes (oikoi, stanzas) and begins with a prologue (the prooimoion or koukoulion). The kontakion usually has a biblical theme, and often features dialogue between biblical characters. By far the most important writer of kontakia is Romanos the Melodist. The only kontakion that is regularly performed in full today is the Akathist to the Theotokos.

SUMMARY
=======
An icon (from the Greek εἰκών eikōn image, resemblance) is a religious work of art, most commonly a painting, in the cultures of the Eastern Orthodox Church, Oriental Orthodoxy, the Roman Catholic, and certain Eastern Catholic churches. The most common subjects include Christ, Mary, saints and angels. Though especially associated with portrait style images concentrating on one or two main figures, the term also covers most religious images in a variety of artistic media produced by Eastern Christianity, including narrative scenes.
Icons may also be cast in metal, carved in stone, embroidered on cloth, painted on wood, done in mosaic or fresco work, printed on paper or metal, etc. Comparable images from Western Christianity are generally not classified as icons, although iconic may be used to describe a static style of devotional image.
Eastern Orthodox tradition holds that the production of Christian images dates back to the very early days of Christianity, and that it has been a continuous tradition since then. Modern academic art history considers that, while images may have existed earlier, the tradition can be traced back only as far as the 3rd century, and that the images which survive from Early Christian art often differ greatly from later ones. The icons of later centuries can be linked, often closely, to images from the 5th century onwards, though very few of these survive. Widespread destruction of images occurred during the Byzantine Iconoclasm of 726-842, although this did settle permanently the question of the appropriateness of images. Since then icons have had a great continuity of style and subject; far greater than in the images of the Western church. At the same time there has been change and development.
