Biographies Characteristics Analysis

Florinsky, Vasily Markovich - Electronic encyclopedia of TSU. Trans-Ural genealogy Membership in scientific societies

(From the collection “Trans-Ural GenealogyIII" Kurgan, 2009).

The city of Dalmatovo, Kurgan region, is one of thousands of Russian cities that can be proud of its history and the people who made this history.

From this seemingly small town, and the villages surrounding it, came a whole galaxy of world-famous scientists: - the famous Trans-Ural local historian, educator, archaeologist and writer; A.S. Popov is a brilliant inventor of radio; – geographer, researcher of the Northern Urals, Novaya Zemlya archipelago, writer; V.M. Florinsky - founder of Tomsk University; – poet, professor of literature; V.P. Biryukov is a Ural folklorist and local historian, a member of the Writers' Union and many others.

This can be explained by the fact that with the strengthening of the Dalmatovsky Assumption Monastery, which was started by the monk Dalmat (in the world Dmitry Mokrinsky), many Russian newcomers settled around it. From here the Christian faith and enlightenment began to spread in the Trans-Ural region. The role of the Dalmatovo Monastery in the Priisetsky region in the 18th century in economic and spiritual terms was very great. For 20 years from 1831 to 1851. In the Trans-Ural part of the Perm province, more than a hundred new churches were built, but there were not enough priests for church services. Perm, Vladimir-Suzdal and other dioceses send graduates of their seminaries and clergy here. This is how the first representatives of the Florinsky dynasty appeared in the Trans-Urals, among whom were clergy, teachers, doctors, and public figures.

In the 18th century, the Florinskys served as deacons of the village of Frolovskoye in the Yuryev-Polsky district of the Vladimir province. The earliest known Florinsky is Ivan Semenovich, the father of Yakov Ivanovich, whose son Mark moved to the Trans-Urals in the 1830s.

Fourth generation

4-3. Mark Yakovlevich Florinsky (1800-1872) and his wife Maria Andreevna, nee Fedorova, are the founders of the Florinsky dynasty in the Trans-Urals. We arrived in the village of Peski, Shadrinsky district, Perm Province, from the village of Frolovsky, Yuryevsky district, Vladimir Province, where Mark Yakovlevich served as a deacon in the church. Before him, father Yakov Ivanovich and grandfather Ivan Semenovich served as deacons in the same Frolov church.

Top row: Augusta Petrovna, Ivan Markovich, Semyon Markovich, Alexandra Alekseevna.

Bottom row: Arkady Ivanovich, Mark Yakovlevich, Maria Andreevna, Vasily Markovich.

Such a distant relocation was forced. In the village of Frolovskoye, a wooden church burned down and services stopped. The large Florinsky family lost their livelihood. The only income came from working in the garden.

The brother of Mark Yakovlevich’s wife, Grigory Fedorov, held high clergy in the Perm diocese. In the history of the Russian Orthodox Church he is known as Archbishop Arkady (1784-1870), one of the most influential bishops of the mid-19th century.

As a result of all the above circumstances, M.Ya. Florinsky and his family, under the patronage of Archbishop Arkady, ended up in the Trans-Ural village of Peski as a priest.

Mark Yakovlevich and his wife had six children: Maria, Alexandra, Ivan, Vasily, Semyon, the second Ivan (Malushka). The father was his children's first teacher. All sons graduated from the Dalmatovo elementary theological school. The eldest sons Ivan and Vasily continued their studies at the Perm Theological Seminary, Ivan-Malushka and Semyon - at the Tobolsk Theological School.

Upon arrival in the village of Peski, Mark Yakovlevich organized the construction of a new church, drew up a construction plan, the prototype of which was the Kazan Cathedral in St. Petersburg. The Peskovskaya Church was founded in honor of the Kazan Mother of God. Simultaneously with the construction of the church, a parochial school building was constructed to educate the children of the villagers. A house was built for the priest's family. On the plot of land, the Florinskys planted a fruit and berry garden - one of the first in the Trans-Urals.

After the completion of the church in 1840, the first clergyman was Mark Yakovlevich. Later they served in it: his son Semyon, grandson Kokosov Ivan Yakovlevich. The last priest was Pantuev Ioann Severyanovich (husband of Mark Yakovlevich’s great-granddaughter).

Mark Yakovlevich and Maria Andreevna lived in Peski until the end of their days. Mark Yakovlevich died in 1872, having lived 72 years. His wife Maria Andreevna died in 1883 at the age of 80. Both were buried in front of the altar of the Church of the Virgin Mary.

Services in the church ceased in 1918; later the church building was used for various economic needs; in the 50s of the last century there was a warehouse in it.

“Currently, the church has been destroyed beyond recognition,” writes KSU graduate student Elena Kolesnikova in the newspaper “Kurgan and Kurgan” dated August 2, 2005. “Only the first tier remains, the doors and frames have been removed. The inside of the building was burned. But on some corners there are still fragments of the painting.”

When the Florinsky family moved from the Vladimir Gubernia to Perm, Vasily was three and a half years old. Years later, he recalls his Trans-Ural childhood: “Under the influence of the local nature and environment, my physical and spiritual development improved. I owe almost all the best inclinations of my future life to the sands.”

Vasily Markovich Florinsky (1834-1899) – founder of the Imperial Tomsk University, trustee of the West Siberian educational district (1885-1898),
Tomsk, 1888

He received the first basics of literacy from his father. At the age of 9, Vasya was taken to the Dalmatovo five-year elementary theological school, after which he was sent to the Perm Theological Seminary.

After graduating from the seminary, he continued his education at the St. Petersburg Medical-Surgical Academy. There he had the opportunity to study with the therapist Botkin, the chemist Borodin, and the physiologist Sechenov. In his third year at the academy, as one of the successful students with a good command of foreign languages, he was sent abroad for two years. Young Florinsky is undergoing internships in medical institutions in Germany, France, England, Switzerland, the Czech Republic, and Austria. Gets acquainted with the latest achievements of science, writes reports to the academy, articles to the editors of the St. Petersburg “Medical Bulletin”. By the time he returned to Russia, he had published about 20 scientific papers.

In April 1861, Vasily Florinsky successfully defended his doctoral dissertation and received the title of Doctor of Medicine. Upon graduation from the academy, he is left there to conduct research work. He went down in the history of Russian medicine as the creator of the first pediatric clinic in Russia at a higher educational institution.

In 1865, Vasily Markovich married Maria Leonidovna Fufaevskaya, who belonged to a family of military nobles of the Novgorod province. They had a daughter, Olga, and a son, Sergei. The son died after living for 4 years.

In 1871 V.M. Florinsky is invited to work at the Ministry of Public Education. But after 6 years he returned to teaching again, heading the department of obstetrics, women's and children's diseases at Kazan University.

In 1880 he published the book “Home Medicine. A medicinal book for popular use”, and a year earlier - “Russian common herbalists and medicinal books”.

V.M. Florinsky was appointed the official representative of the Ministry during the construction of the Siberian University. Since 1880, during his summer vacation (from May to September), he went annually to Siberia to resolve important government issues: choosing the city in which the university would be created and the location for its construction; preparation of design and construction works; purchasing equipment, books for the library, resolving personnel issues, etc.

On July 1, 1885, the West Siberian educational district was created in Siberia. V.M. was appointed his trustee. Florinsky. The following cities claimed the place where the university would be founded: Tobolsk, Omsk and Tomsk. The final choice fell on Tomsk. In 1885, the Florinsky family moved to Tomsk. Thus, Vasily Markovich finally linked his fate with Tomsk University: from drawing up a construction project to its opening. He considered this matter to be the main thing in his life, despite the numerous difficulties that he had to overcome. The opening of the university took place in July 1888. It was a big holiday for which the entire population of Tomsk gathered.

In 1898, Vasily Markovich retired. During his service, he was awarded 10 orders and had more than two hundred published scientific works. The Siberian City Duma elected him an honorary citizen of the city of Tomsk. The couple decided to settle in Kazan, where their daughter Olga was already living at that time.

Before moving, the Florinskys stopped in St. Petersburg, where they stayed at the Big Northern Hotel. On the morning of January 3, 1899, Vasily Markovich died of heart paralysis. He was buried in Kazan in the small cemetery of the Spassko-Preobrazhensky Monastery in the Kazan Kremlin. His wife, Maria Leonidovna, lived in Kazan until 1915. Her further fate is unknown.

He sent money mainly for the maintenance and education of boys (Sergei, Vladimir, Vasily, Alexey) in schools, and then in seminaries. In fact, if not for V.M. Florinsky, none of them would have learned.

10-4. Ivan Markovich Florinsky (Malushka) (1837-1894). He served as a priest in the village of Pershino. In 1860, he opened the first free parish school in his house. The school was called free because the teacher did not receive any compensation. The school occupied two rooms and was maintained at the expense of the teacher. Ivan Markovich was both a teacher and a manager. I purchased textbooks and manuals with my own funds. There were about 125-140 boys and 2-3 girls studying at the school. After 10 years the school was closed.

In 1870 in the village. In Pershino, a zemstvo school was opened with a three-year training period; priest Florinsky was appointed teacher and head. There was no room for her. To solve the problem, he gives it a tower-outbuilding in the southwestern part of the church fence.

In the report, the inspecting member of the School Council I.M. Pervushin reported: “the students know short prayers, form words, count to a hundred or more, know the addition and subtraction of small two-digit numbers...

I have been actively researching my ancestry since 2002, and am a member of the Trans-Ural Genealogical Society named after P.A. Svishcheva. In 2004, at a meeting of the society, she made a report “On the Florinsky priests in the Trans-Urals.” In 2005, in the city newspaper “Kurgan and Kurgan” she published three extensive materials about the Florinskys:

- “The Good Old Saint” (about the Florinskys’ stay in the Trans-Urals since 1837);

- “Decoration of the Trans-Ural Land (about V.M. Florinsky - medical scientist, founder of Tomsk University in 1888);

- “At the turn of the century” (about Alexei Semenovich Florinsky - exiled under police supervision to the Tobolsk province, employee of the Kurgan Union of Butter Makers, mayor of Tyumen).

In 1995, the editors of the newspaper “Kurgan and Kurgan” recognized her as the best author of the year.

Learning the genealogy of my family and friends, my soul quietly rejoices at the spiritually glorious past deeds of my great-grandfathers. It is known: without knowledge of the past it is difficult to understand the present. I thank fate for giving me years as a genealogist - getting acquainted with the archives and communicating with colleagues in the Trans-Ural Genealogical Society, learning the life history of my ancestors.

Despite my, alas, middle-aged years, the chaotic course of life in our state, the confusion and often complete disorder of civil society today, I am satisfied that I managed to find my point of contact with the world, my niche, which I try to fill not only for my descendants, but also, forgive me for some immodesty, I’m trying to write a few lines into the chronicle from the past of my native land.

Let your life continue with new meetings with interesting people from the past and present, and let the parting wait! Alone, we are weak at heart. And we must remember the words of P. Florensky: “The wingedness of a person is in his sense of the clan, in his reliance on the clan.”

Fedotova Valentina Petrovna, member of the Trans-Ural Genealogical Society named after. P.A. Svishcheva since 2001.

Trustee of the West Siberian educational district

Tomsk State University

Tomsk Technological Institute

He was one of the initiators of the opening of the Siberian University in Tomsk. He was a member of the Construction Committee, worked a lot on choosing a site for the university, designing university buildings, and supervised their construction. He was involved in the formation of the university library, staffing the teaching staff, and purchasing educational equipment.

M. Florinsky was appointed official representative of the Ministry during the construction of the Siberian University. Since 1880, during his summer vacation (from May to September), he went annually to Siberia to resolve important government issues: choosing the city in which the university would be created and the location for its construction; preparation of design and construction works; purchasing equipment, books for the library, resolving personnel issues, etc.

On July 1, 1885, the West Siberian educational district was created in Siberia. V.M. was appointed his trustee. Florinsky. The following cities claimed the place where the university would be founded: Tobolsk, Omsk and Tomsk. The final choice fell on Tomsk. In 1885, the Florinsky family moved to Tomsk. Thus, Vasily Markovich finally linked his fate with Tomsk University: from drawing up a construction project to its opening. He considered this matter to be the main thing in his life, despite the numerous difficulties that he had to overcome. The opening of the university took place in July 1888. It was a big holiday for which the entire population of Tomsk gathered.

The second important thing V.M. did in this era of his life was the establishment of a technological institute in Tomsk.

The Tomsk province, which included within its current borders the Tomsk, Novosibirsk, Kemerovo regions, Altai Territory, parts of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, Semipalatinsk, Ust-Kamenogorsk regions, was formed in 1804. The city of Tomsk became its administrative center. It was a rich region with mineral reserves. But it was developed slowly, with a shortage of qualified specialists. The severity of the problem became especially obvious with the construction of the Siberian Railway.

Siberia entered a period of intensive development of the factory industry, construction of railways and other facilities; in the new economic conditions, the issue of fuel became acute, and in a broader sense, the problem of engineering and technical support for the developing national economy had to be solved. Effective development and management of the economy required educated people with professional knowledge and the ability to conduct production and develop culture.

Tomsk was chosen as the center for training specialists in Siberia. A state university was founded here in 1878, and in 1896 a technological institute was founded, named after Emperor Nicholas II.

The idea of ​​​​creating an independent institute in Tomsk belonged to Count S. Yu. Witte, at that time the Minister of Finance. The Minister of Agriculture Ermolov made the same proposal in his report to Emperor Nicholas II on his trip to Siberia. D.I. provided every possible support to the newly established institute. Mendeleev.

In 1895 Witte S.Yu. wrote to the Minister of Public Education about the need to think through and solve the problem of training engineers in Siberia from its natives.

On July 25, 1895, the Minister of Public Education I. D. Delyanov wrote to the trustee of the West Siberian educational district V. M. Florinsky:

“In connection with the imminent completion of the construction of the Siberian Railway and the great need in this region for specialists who could manage the exploration of subsoil and natural resources, it is necessary to discuss the issue of opening a Faculty of Physics and Mathematics and an Engineering and Technical Department at Tomsk University, coexistence which would be provided by a contingent of specialists for Siberia.”

Trustee V. M. Florinsky convened a meeting on August 11, 1895 to discuss the minister’s letter. The meeting was attended by: University Rector Professor A. I. Sudakov, Professors N. F. Kashchenko (zoologist), A. M. Zaitsev (geologist), E. V. Werner (chemist). The meeting unanimously came to the conclusion that it was possible to organize the training of engineers at a special technical department at the university’s physics and mathematics department, the opening of which in Tomsk is extremely necessary, and developed a project for a physics and mathematics department with a technical department attached to it. To discuss the project of a new faculty developed by professors of Tomsk University, the Ministry of Public Education (MPE) created a commission chaired by N.M., professor of mathematics at Moscow University. Lyubimova. The commission included representatives of the Ministries of Public Education, Agriculture and State Property, the director of the St. Petersburg Technological Institute, professors of the St. Petersburg University and the Institute of Technology, the former rector of Tomsk University, Doctor of Physics, Professor N. A. Gezekhus.

The commission came to the conclusion that to train engineers it is necessary to open an independent technological institute in Tomsk with two departments: civil engineering and chemical technology, with enhanced teaching of electrical engineering and metallurgy due to the rapid development of mining in Siberia. At the same time, the commission drew up an estimate for the construction and maintenance of the Tomsk Technological Institute in the amount of 1 million 812 thousand rubles.

Scientific activity

The main scientific directions of V. M. Florinsky were related to issues of gynecology and obstetrics. In the book “Improvement and Degeneration of the Human Race,” published in 1866, for the first time in Russian literature he expressed some thoughts that later formed the basis of medical genetics, as well as ideas on eugenics - the science of human hereditary health and ways to improve its hereditary properties.

The name of Vasily Markovich Florinsky (1834-1899) in the history of Russian science and education is associated, first of all, with the founding of Tomsk (at that time Siberian) University. Scientific interests of V.M. Florinsky covered obstetrics and gynecology, ethnology and archeology. He was the author of about 300 scientific papers.

Let us list the main scientific works of Vasily Markovich Florinsky. In 1869 and 1870 he published two editions of the first volume of the textbook “Course of Obstetrics and Women’s Diseases” (gynecology) - “the most fundamental publication at that time in this branch of medicine.” In 1866, the book by V.M. was published. Florinsky “Improvement and Degeneration of the Human Race,” in which the author, for the first time in the history of Russian science, expressed some considerations regarding heredity related to genetics and eugenics - those sections of scientific knowledge that at that time were not yet perceived as independent sciences.

V.M. Florinsky was also keenly interested in traditional medicine. He was the author of the popular medical book Domestic Medicine: A Manual for Popular Use (1880), which went through nine editions. Its writing was preceded by the publication of a book on the history of folk medicine - “Russian common herbalists and healers: Collection of medical manuscripts of the 16th and 17th centuries” (1879-1880).

Scientific interests of V.M. Florinsky were distinguished by their encyclopedic breadth. In the second half of the 1890s. he published a fundamental work on theoretical archeology - “Primitive Slavs according to the monuments of their prehistoric life: Experience of Slavic archeology.”

Since 1876, the life and work of V.M. Florinsky was closely connected with the first university in Siberia, which was supposed to be opened. Vasily Markovich took an active part in the organization of this university, being in 1877 included in the “Commission established by the Highest Command to study the issue of choosing a city for the Siberian University.” Regarding the organization of the university, V.M. Florinsky corresponded with many outstanding Russian scientists and statesmen of that time, including A.N. Beketov and V.V. Dokuchaev, I.A. Baudouin de Courtenay, A.Ya. Danilevsky, D.I. Mendeleev, N.V. Sklifosovsky, I.D. Delyanov, K.P. Pobedonostsev, as well as representatives of the royal family.

Under the care of V.M. Florinsky from 1875 to 1885. “Almost 70 thousand volumes of books and magazines were donated and purchased for the Siberian University,” and in 1885 Vasily Markovich donated his library of medical literature to the university. V.M. Florinsky founded the university botanical garden and did a lot to create university museums, the largest of which was the archaeological one. “At the same time as the university-wide archaeological museum, others were created: zoological, botanical, mineralogical and geological, but they were considered cabinet museums,” points out E.V. Yastrebov. All these undertakings of the organizer of Tomsk University still exist.

Vasily Markovich Florinsky was a full (in some cases honorary) member of Russian and foreign scientific societies, in particular: the Society of Russian Doctors (St. Petersburg; since 1859 - full; since 1879 - honorary member), the Imperial Russian Geographical Society ( St. Petersburg, 1875), Society of Doctors at Kazan University (1878), Society of Archeology, History and Ethnography at Kazan University (1878), Boston Gynecological Society (Boston, USA), Tomsk Society of Naturalists and Doctors ( 1889), the Ural Society of Natural History Lovers (Ekaterinburg, 1890), the Society of Kiev Doctors (honorary member since 1891), the Society of Natural History Lovers, Anthropology and Ethnography (Moscow; since 1892 - an indispensable member), the Moscow Society of Natural Scientists.

Despite his extreme employment, Vasily Markovich, who came from the clergy, did not break ties with his many relatives. Here is an excerpt from a letter from nephew V.M. Florinsky - Fr. Ioanna Kokosova: “Those who have completed a course in Theological Seminaries with a student’s degree can enter Tomsk University, but there have been cases that due to exceptions, those who have completed a course in the second category have entered there. This year my son Mikhail Ivanov Kokosov will finish his course at the Perm Theological Seminary; in the sixth grade of the Seminary he passed first in the second category, but he cannot hope to receive the degree of Student of the Seminary, since while studying in the first grades of the Seminary he had a score of 3 in general education subjects. Meanwhile, he has an irresistible desire to enroll to continue his studies specifically to the Faculty of Medicine, which is what I sincerely wish.” It should be noted that among the descendants of Fr. Ioanna Kokosova - public figures, doctors, university professors (both natural scientists and humanists), scientists, engineers. It is enough to mention the famous Russian pulmonologist A.N. Kokosov, who, becoming interested in the history of his family, published the book “The History of One Family (in Healthcare)” (St. Petersburg, 2009).

One more fact should be added to the above. By the decision of the Academic Council of Tomsk State University dated March 31, 2004, the Regulations on the scholarship named after V.M. Florinsky for graduate students of humanities faculties of Tomsk State University (graduate students of natural faculties can apply for a scholarship named after D.I. Mendeleev, who also stood at the origins of Tomsk University).
