dc.description.abstractSmall votive offerings, such as metal or wax figures or various pieces of fine jewellery, are a common way to venerate Christian sacred objects (Catholic, Orthodox, Greek Catholic or Armenian). Countless believers from different social backgrounds placed them side by side with specially made reliquaries, shrines, frames and icon diadems. This tradition was determined not only by internal Church rules but also by state policy (for example, in 1722 the Most Holy Governing Synod of the Russian Empire issued a decree on the removal of votive offerings from icons and the use of these items for the Church’s needs. This decree also came into effect in the Ukrainian lands that were part of the empire). The research aim of this paper is to compare, for the first time in Ukrainian historiography, the role of votive crafts in pre-Soviet and post-Soviet Ukraine. The paper is based on the principle of historicism, synthesis, analysis, generalisation, and retrospective and comparative historical methods. Since the 17th century, information has appeared in various sources about votive offerings specially made from silver or gold to be hung beside shrines or icons. This refers to images of body parts and visceral organs, or human or animal figures. Evidence of the techniques used to make and decorate these votive offerings (casting, chasing, stamping, engraving, gilding, etc) from the 18th to the early 20th century has been confirmed. The craftspeople were both men.
dc.description.abstractotherStraipsnyje lyginamas krikščioniškojo voto amato vaidmuo ikisovietinėje ir posovietinėje Ukrainoje. Voto tradicija Ukrainoje sovietmečiu apmirė ir atgimė tik iš dalies, o ne ypatingo amato lygmeniu, anksčiau paplitusiu įvairaus lygio juvelyrikos dirbtuvėse tiek miesto, tiek kaimo gyvenvietėse. Todėl šios tradicijos transformacija sovietų valdžios laikotarpiu reikalauja tolesnio giluminio tyrimo, atsižvelgiant į laipsnišką Ukrainos teritorijos įstojimą į SSRS.
