| Summary: | A series of articles deals with various forms of historical knowledge in the intercultural space of the North Caucasus in the XIX - early XX centuries. Article 2 features formation of an academic model of research in the history of the region. It was due to the activities of St.Petersburg Academy of science, which was arranging expeditions from the mid - XIX to the early XX centuries. The expeditions accumulated bulk of knowledge about the history and culture of local peoples. The main centers for regional studies were located in Russian capitals: Imperial Russian Geographic Society, Imperial Society of Devotees of Science, Anthropology and Ethnography, Imperial Moscow Archaeological Society and Imperial Archaeological Commission. Their research programs on history, archaeology and ethnography of the North Caucasus as well as the research methods prompted the revival of academic studies of the historic heritage of the region, consolidation of local researchers' efforts and development of the regional Historiographical traditions. The V (Tiflis) Archaeological congress (1881) became the starting point to systematic studies of the region by local researchers. The congress also defined objectives and directions of development of region studies, which are valid up to the present time. To conclude, the interaction of metropolitan and local academic institutions, societies and particular researchers determined the process of formation of the academic tradition of the North Caucasus historical studies. |
