Popis: | The purpose of the article. The article deals with the historical features of the formation and functioning of the Armenian quarters and the social topography characteristics of the Armenians of Lviv. The cultural influence of the Armenian ethnic minority on the formation of Lviv history is highlighted. The research methodology has been determined by historical analysis of sources and data synthesis, which made it possible to reveal the specific features of the historical development of the Armenian quarters in Lviv as an important part of the cultural life of Ukraine. The methods of interpretation and social topography were used to study the influence of social identity and social status, profession and relationships of different social groups on their territorial location in the city. Conclusions. Studying of the historical dynamics of the social topography of the Lviv’s Armenian colony leads to the conclusion that the Armenians of Lviv usually had a prestigious place of residence throughout the existence of the Armenian colony in the city. At the same time, even in the Middle Ages many Armenians lived outside the two Armenian quarters, in particular, in the prestigious central square of the city (Rynok Square). In the nineteenth and early twentieth century Armenians of Lviv have become an integral part of Lviv residents. Thus, there is no reason to consider the Armenian quarters as an autonomous Armenian ethnic and national topos. However, representatives of the Armenian intellectual and artistic elite played a prominent role in creating Lviv’s new image. |
