Abstract

We introduced the concept «School of Historians of St. Volodymyr University». This concept incorporated the academic teachers – scientists, who were united on a professional basis as historians and worked as Chairs of World and Russian History from the opening of the institution in 1834 until its liquidation in 1920. Within this convept, we investigated the history of the formation of the School of Historians of St. Volodymyr University from the middle of the 30-ies untill the beginning of the 60-ies of the XIX century through the researching the socio-cultural portrait of historians V.F. Tsykh, V.F. Dombrowsky, O.I. Stavrovsky, M.I. Kostomarov, P.V. Pavlov, V.Ya. Shulgin. We established that V.F. Tsykh, V.F. Dombrowsky, O.I. Stavrovsky, M.I. Kostomarov formed the first period of the formation of the School, which lasted from 1834 until the end of the 40-ies of the XIX century, and P.V. Pavlov, O.I. Stavrovskii, V.Ya. Shulgin formed the second period of the formation of the School, from the end of the 40-ies to the beginning of the 60-ies of the XIX century. We analyzed the teaching, scientific and educational activities of V.F. Tsykh, V.F. Dombrowsky, O.I. Stavrovsky, M.I. Kostomarov, P.V. Pavlov, V.Ya. Shulgin, and determined their contribution to the development of educational and historical science of their time, the start of the traditions of the School of Historians, and the University educational and scientific space. We explored the memoirs of contemporaries D.P. Khrushchev, student N., Mykola Gerbel, M.I. Kostomarov, O.V. Romanovich- Slavatinsky, V.G. Avseyenko, V.Ya. Portugalом about historians V.F. Tsykh, V.F. Dombrowsky, O.I. Stavrovsky, M.I. Kostomarov, P.V. Pavlov, V.Ya. Shulgin. We investigated that the memoirs contain an expressive characteristic of activity of those historians, and they were brightly evaluated as outstanding individuals, who actively created their time. We created the integrated portrait of the professors of the history of the University of St. Volodymyr University from the middle of the 1830-s till the beginning of the 1860-s. We researched the history of the formation of the School of Historians of St. Volodymyr University at their time. We looked feeper in their life, teaching, scientific, and educational activity in initiating by them the traditions of the School of Historians of the institution. We emphasize that professors V.F. Tsykh, V.F. Dombrowsky, O.I. Stavrovsky, M.I. Kostomarov, P.V. Pavlov, V.Ya. Shulgin were among the founders of Ukrainian historical education and science. We conclude that all six historians came to the St. Vlolodymyr University very young and worked with a big desire for the benefit of education and science. They inspired by their selfless work others to the study of World and Russian History and Local History. We verify that V.F. Tsykh, V.F. Dombrowsky, O.I. Stavrovsky, M.I. Kostomarov, P.V. Pavlov, V.Ya. Shulgin demonstrated cult of knowledge, high erudition, general culture and the desire to create. They taught future talented specialists and researchers, educated a broadly and impartially thinking young generation of citizens, inspired others to study Russian and World history, History and Culture of their Native Land. We show that they contributed to the beginning of the formation of the traditions of the School of Historians of St. Volodymyr University as a whole.
