dc.description.abstractenFor the first time, an article highlights the process of founding a vegetarian Society in Poltava (the second one on Ukrainian territory) in the early 1900’s. The Annales school civilizational approaches constitute the methodological ground of the study. These approaches take into account the influence of socio-cultural factors in a comprehensive way. Everyday life history is one of the scientific directions within which the research took place. The selected topic required the usage of methodologies developed in the European ‘food studies’ framework. The research relies on methods of system analysis, deduction, induction, and chronological method. A year before the actual registration of the Society, a group of activists opened a vegetarian canteen in Poltava, aiming to promote vegetarianism. Immediately, it became popular and profitable. In the beginning, founded served in the canteen. Later, due to a steady increase in the number of visitors, they hired additional personnel. There was an urgent need to create a society that would guide its activities and systematically implement the ideas of the canteen’s founders. In the autumn of 1912, the Society was registered and immediately attracted the attention of the local community. The number of its members doubled during the year. Our research discovered that, since the beginning, the City Duma (City Council) had been favorable to the vegetarian canteen and the Society and granted them several privileges. Given the favorable social atmosphere and extreme successes, leaders of the Poltava Vegetarian Society were full of well-founded optimism and outlined a broad agenda of actions. However, lack of funds, the inertia of the vegetarian community, and issues within the political environment undermined the plan. Only the canteen managed to demonstrate notable success. As soon as the Society was founded, the Canteen was transferred under its management with no specific conditions or requirements. This transfer provided the Society with significant resources for its activities, so members started investing in canteen development. However, members of the Society firstly could not agree on the main principles for the canteen functioning. Several members voted for non-commercial usage preserving mainly its ideological function. Others attempted to make it commercial. Finally, members managed to find a compromise, which allowed to increase volumes and quality of service on one side and keep low prices on the other. As a result of such policy, the canteen became a popular elite place and failed to bring significant profits. Taking care primarily of the canteen affairs, the Society decided to conduct an assessment at the end of 1913. The idea was to survey Society members and canteen visitors. The official aim was to research the development of the vegetarian movement in Poltava. Unfortunately, the results of this poll have never been published. At the beginning of 1917, Poltava Vegetarian Society’s Council decided to conduct a survey again. The questionnaire published in the press hardly intended to find out the real state of affairs. All questions were frankly manipulative, pushing the respondents to give an answer required by the authors. The political crisis of 1917 interrupted activities of the majority of Russian Empire vegetarian societies in general and Poltava Vegetarian Society in particular.uk
