Alexander Yaroslavich Nevsky is the most famous Old Russian prince, its image is more painted with all sorts of legends and extreme evaluative judgments. One of the most common delusions is due to the fact that Alexander was allegedly twinned by the son of Batiya Sartak, as well as the adoptive son of Batya himself.

Myth about Masonic and other conspiractions
Sergey Ivanov, Byzantinist, lecturer Arzamas:
This is a myth that the world is managed by means of deceptions and conspiracies. The Fomenkian "exposing" of the story with his success in the public is obliged to conviction of people in the fact that everything is not so easy! That the front of the imaginary reality lies the other, only after all, we will not show it. It seems to a person that he is constantly cheating, always leave in fools, and this, of course, is true, but only for this will not lie any riddles - the elite and their interests that are always conflicted between themselves, are constantly changing and almost never care about Man from the street.

One of the most sustainable misconceptions about Japanese art is the myth of the irrevocable and strict continuity of tradition, unfortunately, this is no densityitivity. Many traditions were interrupted or fell under the ban in the XVII, in the second half of the XIX - early XX century due to political and economic events, and in the middle of the 20th century were reconstructed, often with the loss of secrets of old masters. Such a position can be observed

First, it is clear from the text that the poem's action takes place in the XIX century, and not in XVIII. Praded Hero was General-Annev "With Mother Catherine" (it became, the hero was born in the first decades of the XIX century), and by the beginning of the action he was "the hero himself" was an amorrant / man so forty "(it became, the action takes place in the 50s ). Secondly, as K. F. Taranovsky showed (1982), the rhythmic profile of the 4-stop yamba of the poem (the relative impact of each foot) does not indicate that the poem was written after 1820, and the presence of parody reministences from Pushkin's poems ("Ezeresky "And the" copper rider ") moves the lower limit of the hypothetical time creation of" Luke "by the mid-1830s. Observations of Taranovsky clarified M.I. Shapir (1997), which calculated that the proportion of approximate female rhymes in the "Luke" (i.e., such in which the postply vowels do not coincide, such as "Pakhchuchi - case") does not allow to attribute the poem By the period of the previous 1850s (even for the 1840s, such a rhyme would be too avant-garde, while parody literature usually reflects its era, and not go ahead).

Myth about the author "Luke Mudishcheva"
Igor Pilters, Lecturer Arzamas:
"All outrageous manuscripts went under my name, like all the badges go under the name of Barkov," wrote Pushkin Vyazemsky. This fully applies to Luke Mudishchev. Many believe that Ivan Semenovich Barkov (1732-1768) wrote this skipping poem (1732-1768), although it was long ago it was found that "Luka" of Barkov could not write in any way.

The fact is that information about the daily life of the Polovtsians, a people who did not have their own written language and did not leave, accordingly, written monuments on their own, are so scarce that almost all research constructions on this matter risk remaining nothing more than speculative hypotheses that are not confirmed and not verifiable with any additional data. However, the names and family ties of individual Polovtsians captured in ancient Russian monuments constitute, as often happens, the minimum quanta of relatively reliable (and most importantly, undoubtedly significant for the Middle Ages) information. For the compilers of the most ancient compilations of chronicles, these nomads serve as one of the main personifications of paganism, atheism, with which the chronicler himself and his audience have to constantly face. Meanwhile, as is known from the same sources, a number of Polovtsians in the XII - first decades of the XIII century bore Christian names, moreover, most of these holders of Christian names clearly belonged to the nomadic elite.

These irritants include completely unfounded and common statements concerning the relationship between the princes of Rurikovich and the nomadic Polovtsy in pre-Mongol times. With one of these historiographic myths, which, however, even have some superficial plausibility, I happened to encounter myself, and this encounter was extremely useful: my constant co-author A.F. Litvina and I even had to write a whole monographic study in order to debunk in their heads) some stable stereotypes and ideas.

The myth of good and bad polls
It is often believed that the larger the sample size, the higher the representativeness of the survey. And in the opposite direction: how can you judge the whole country based on a sample of only 1,500 people?
In fact, representativeness is the ability to represent something invisible with the help of the visible. In this case, it is the ability of the model (sample) to represent the entire population (it is called the general population). The sample should reflect all the significant features of the general population.

The myth of Dantes' body armor
The version about the fact that during the duel with Pushkin on Dantes there was a "shell", as you know, the first or one of the first to launch the Pushkinist Arnold Gessen. When Akhmatova read about this, she was in terrible rage: “It would have been Gessen who would have shot himself in a bulletproof vest, but Dantes was a nobleman and understood that if they suddenly found out about this, they would stop accepting him tomorrow, not only in St. Petersburg, but also in Paris. !
