Popis: | The diary of Metropolitan of Novgorod and Staraya Russa Arseny (Stadnitsky) for a period of 1880-1917 is kept in the State Archive of the Russian Federation. However, during the First World War when Right Reverend Arseny was Archbishop, not all notebooks of the diary were saved. One notebook was absent and it covered a period from November 1916 to August 1917 when the Council of the Russian Orthodox Church was open as the last preserved diary notebook was dedicated to the Council events and was titled “At the Council”. But even this incomplete material of the diary is of the greatest importance. Archbishop Arseny, a member of the State Council and present member of the Holy Synod and Doctor of Church history had a very serious attitude to his diary and described there the most important (from his point of view) documents and events in the state, social and church life of that time. In the notebooks of the 1914-1916 years there are letters from the front, letters of Archbishop of Warsaw and Privislinsky Region Nikolay (Ziorov) and of Mother Superior of the Holy Trinity - St. Sergius convent in Riga Sergiya (Mansurova). Right Reverend Arseny covered many problems in the Novgorod eparchy and in the Russian Church as a whole during the First World War such as front events and assistance of the population to the front; - aid to the wounded and their families, the families of killed in action and orphans; - refugees and evacuation of the monasteries and orphanages; - evacuation of church valuables from eparchies close to the front; - applications of some hierarchs to the Holy Synod about sending them to the front as army priests; - food problems; - church life and divine services during the war and other issues. |
