Abstract

The article focuses on a court case of the Erivan Uezd of the mid-19th century, involving a Molokan woman Lukeriya Korsakova. The lawsuit “Case of Lukeriya Korsakova’s settlement among the Molokans of the Erivan Uezd, March 7, 1847–May 21, 1848” was initiated as a result of the woman’s transition from Orthodoxy to the Molokan sectarianism, what was punishable by exile. The trial lasted from 1844 to 1848, and the case passed through several instances. The authors try to reconstruct the details and specifics of the case of the defendant Lukeriya Korsakova on the basis of archival documents.
