Abstract
The archbishop Gabriel Aivazovsky (1812–1880) – is the researcher in Armenian studies, orientalist, historian and teacher, the older brother of the famous Russian artist – Ivan Aivazovsky. He was born in Feodosia into a family of an Armenian merchant on May 10, 1812. He received a scientific education at the monastery of the Mekhitarist Fathers, on San Lazaro Island in Venice. His most important works are “Essay on the History of Russia” (1836), “History of the Ottoman State” (2 volumes, 1841), “Essay on Venice congregation of Mekhitarists” (1857). He also wrote books on theology, textbooks for the Armenian schools. In 1843 he founded and became the first editor of the famous magazine of the Armenian studies “Bazmavep”, which still gets published nowadays. This was the magazine which published the article by K. Kushneryan in Armenian about the great Ukrainian poet Taras Shevchenko. In 1858 after his resignation from the congregation due to disagreements with its leadership he returned to Russia with the support of the Russian government. In Feodosia at that time he published the popular Armenian magazine “The pigeon of Masis”, and subsequently founded the Armenian College which lasted for 13 years.
The article also analyzes the impact of the political events in Europe and Russia, including the Crimean war (1853–1856) on Aivazovsky – the famous historian, scientist of the Armenian studies, teacher who significantly contributed into the Armenian educational domain. On the example of the activities of the Armenian school in Feodosia, the particularities of the politics of the Tsarist Russia of the middle of the 19th century, which restricted the educational facilities of the non-Russian population, are highlighted.
