ОЛЬГА Эльга, Эльга! - звучало над полями, Где ломали друг другу крестцы С голубыми, свирепыми глазами И жилистыми руками молодцы. Ольга, Ольга! - вопили древляне С волосами, желтыми, как мед, Выцарапывая в раскаленной бане Окровавленными ногтями ход. И за дальними морями чужими Не уставала звенеть, То же звонкое вызванивая имя, Варяжская сталь в византийскую медь. Все забыл я, что помнил ране Христианские имена, И твое лишь имя, Ольга, для моей гортани Слаще самого старого вина. Год за годом всё неизбежней Запевают в крови века, Опьянен я тяжестью прежней Скандинавского костяка. Древних ратей воин отсталый, К этой жизни затая вражду, Сумасшедших сводов Валгаллы, Славных битв и пиров я жду. Вижу череп с брагой хмельною, Бычьи розовые хребты, И валькирией надо мною Ольга, Ольга, кружишь ты. Николай Гумилев
Why Princess of Russia, and not Princess of Rus (or Princess of Kievan Rus)? It sounds different in the Russian language, so why confuse English speakers and make it all the same word?
@@oreshek-uq3rn what Oleg - not an orc but a Viking konung - has in common with the state of Moskovia, the capital of which was founded 300 years after he became the ruler of Kyiv? The same Moskovia that then burnt Novgorod to the ground and killed its elites, btw. Both Novgorod and Kyiv were conquered by Moskovia later on, but the state tradition of Russia was inherited from Moskovia and not from Rus that passed its written language, traditions, and law to the Kingdom of Lithuania. It's absurd to say that Rus is the same as Russia or that the middle age state of Novgorod is same Russia. I'm not saying that Ukraine = Rus too. There wasn't neither Russia nor Ukraine at the time of the Kyivan Rus. Yet if one state conquers another one it doesn't let them steal their history. The fact that Bolgaria was conquered by Turks doesn't make Bolgaria the same as Turkey. Stop your propagandistic nonsense.
@@ThePanHoo but he behaved himself literally like ruzzian soldiers, who took Finno-Ugoric tribes (prototype of modern combat Buryats) and literally invaded ancient-Ukrainian Kyiv, overthrew the legitimate rulers. After Oleg said "This city will be the mother of Russian cities". So he decided to conquere city, which belonged to other nation, errased their heritage, for his imperialistic purpose (better land for agriculture). Doesn't he remind you someone on letter "P", who lives right now? There are way more ancient cities, Ladoga for instance. It was founded in 753. Also, do you know such things as feodal wars? That was what happened between Russian principalities, including Novgorod and Moscow. Also, Poles and Lituhanians didn't know, anything about "ukrainians", only Russians figured in theit documents. Lvov was the capital of Vojevodstvo Russkoye, not Ukrainskoye. Why you say Russia is not Rus, while Rossia is literally Rus, but helenified, while Ukraine is "suburb" from Russian? In Middle Ages no one knew about "Kievian Rus", which is just a scientific term invented in middle of 19th century to distinguish political powers, (Terms as Vladimir-Suzdal Rus, Chervonnaya Rus, and like it or not, Moscow Rus existed as well) but there was word Russia and its variations depending on the place.
1) of Russia cuz Russia in Greek is found already in the 10th century, and in Latin spelling in the 12th. Russia or Rosia romanized and hellenized terms of Rus 2) in old russian Kyev 3) ukraine in old russian means outskirts. Rus' came from Novgorod. Kievan Rus is the same as Parisian France or Berlin Germany. None of our ancestors called Rus' that,
Какая же украинская чушь, все от лукавого у вас. Вы уничтожаете и историю, и веру. Бог ложь и раскол не прощает, поэтому никакой Украины не будет. Вся ваша идеология - злость и неправда, вы - антихристанство, анти-Русь, анти-Россия. Вы существуете только потому, что есть мы - настоящие потомки Ольги и крестителей Руси, потомки Великий Русских Святых, которых вам не удастся вычеркнуть из истории. Вы - подделка и марионетка в руках влиятельных кукловодов, и не более. И существовать осталось вам недолго. А Русь, то есть и Россия, стояла и будет стоять. Третий Рим стоит, а четвертому не быть.
I was looking for a comment like this! Illiterate people will follow russian propaganda and won't even read proper historical books. It's so cringe! Olga was not russian.
@@ivanipatov65591. Rus’ because Russia is not an adequate term to describe the state that olha was duchess off 2. The city was called kyiv in ruthenian, the language spoken at the time.

Россия, Украина и Белоруссия могут проследить свое наследие до Киевской Руси. Большинство историков ассоциируют Русь с Киевской Русью, поскольку она является самой большой и могущественной из трех.
This would be like a Portuguese arguing that north western Orthodox Visigoth were already distinct from southern Visigoths (which became Spain) 100 years before the Saracen invasion. This is an obsessive, irrational distinction born of the unbrotherly and unchristian SIN of Vendetta, of blood feud, one that even now temps fools to meddle with the “Unforgivable Word” as CS Lewis metaphorically called it.
Please do more female saints. My wife is still trying to decide on her patron for when she comes into the church soon.
Saint Olga, Saint Marina, Saint Catherine, Saint Olimpia, Saint Mary of Egypt... A lot of Orthodox female examples...

Первая христианка в русском государстве - крестилась еще до Крещения Руси.
Моли о нас, Святая Ольга, Господа - молитвами Святых спасемся! ☦️
ОЛЬГА
Эльга, Эльга! - звучало над полями,
Где ломали друг другу крестцы
С голубыми, свирепыми глазами
И жилистыми руками молодцы.
Ольга, Ольга! - вопили древляне
С волосами, желтыми, как мед,
Выцарапывая в раскаленной бане
Окровавленными ногтями ход.
И за дальними морями чужими
Не уставала звенеть,
То же звонкое вызванивая имя,
Варяжская сталь в византийскую медь.
Все забыл я, что помнил ране
Христианские имена,
И твое лишь имя, Ольга, для моей гортани
Слаще самого старого вина.
Год за годом всё неизбежней
Запевают в крови века,
Опьянен я тяжестью прежней
Скандинавского костяка.
Древних ратей воин отсталый,
К этой жизни затая вражду,
Сумасшедших сводов Валгаллы,
Славных битв и пиров я жду.
Вижу череп с брагой хмельною,
Бычьи розовые хребты,
И валькирией надо мною
Ольга, Ольга, кружишь ты.
Николай Гумилев
I am named after her. Glory to God!

Because Rus is Russia
@@oreshek-uq3rn no, it’s not. Russia is Moskovia and Rus is Rus with a centre in Kyiv.
@@ThePanHoo it became center only after Oleg conquered it. So basically, a Novgorodian orc invaded ancient ukrainian lands

There are way more ancient cities, Ladoga for instance. It was founded in 753.
Also, do you know such things as feodal wars? That was what happened between Russian principalities, including Novgorod and Moscow.

Olga cannot be called the "princess of Russia". Rus does not mean Russia. Kiev was attached to Russia only in the second half of the 17th century.
