Biography
In 1967 he graduated from the Faculty of Physics , and also, according to his own statement, in absentia [2] 4 courses out of 5 [3] the philological faculty of Moscow State University named after MV Lomonosov .
In 1973, at Lomonosov Moscow State University, he defended his dissertation for the degree of candidate of philosophical sciences on the topic “Philosophical analysis of the concepts of divisibility and compatibility” (specialty 09.00.01 - dialectical and historical materialism ). [4] In 1987, at the Moscow State Pedagogical Institute named after V.I. Lenin he defended his doctoral dissertation on the topic “Philosophical problems of natural science atomism” (specialty 09.00.08 - philosophy of science and technology ) [1] [5] .
Since 1976 - associate professor , since 1991 - professor .
Since December 1999 - full member [1] of the public organization “ Russian Academy of Natural Sciences ” (RANS) [6] . Since May 2005, he has headed the Institute of Ancient Slavic and Ancient Eurasian Civilization at the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences.
As of 2003, he was the chairman of the Commission on Culture of Ancient and Medieval Russia of the Scientific Council of the Russian Academy of Sciences “History of World Culture” [7] . Chudinov himself stated [8] that, according to the Decree of the Presidium of the Russian Academy of Sciences No. 44 dated 02/14/2006 (Appendix 3 “Structure of the Scientific Council of the Russian Academy of Sciences“ History of World Culture ”, p. 4, first surname from above), he was re-elected until 2011. However, according to the editorial board of the bulletin “ In Defense of Science ”, Chudinov “has long been removed from any authority at the RAS” [9] . A. E. Petrov, Deputy Academic Secretary of the Department of Historical and Philological Sciences of the Russian Academy of Sciences , rated this commission as a “poorly controlled appendix” within the framework of the “blurred amorphous structure” of the “History of World Culture” scientific council under the Presidium of the RAS, which has nothing to do with the specialized branch of the Academy . In this council, Petrov called the “poet-philosopher” A. A. Kotenev the patron of Chudinov [10] .
He worked, according to him [11] , at his main job or as an hourly and part-time worker at about 20 universities, collaborated with several research institutes ( VNII GPE , RTI , VINITI , INION , IIET , IFAN ), taught philosophy through the Department of Philosophy of the Russian Academy of Sciences to graduate students a number of research institutes ( Kurchatov Institute , Energy Institute named after G.M. Krzhizhanovsky , Institute of Thermophysics , Institute of Helminthology, Plant Growing, Livestock, Fertilizers of VASKHNIL and others), was published in the scientific periodicals of the institutes of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR and the Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow State University, LGU , TvGU , etc. e. consisted or consists of members three councils for the defense of dissertations at state universities, one scientific council of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and one council through IANPO.
He lectured at the Polytechnic Museum , but in 2010 his lectures were excluded from the museum program as pseudoscientific [12] .
Co-chairman of the organizing committee and participant in international congresses "Pre-Cyrillic Slavic Writing and Pre-Christian Slavic Culture", from 2008 to 2010, held annually at Leningrad State University. Pushkin , and in 2011 - in the city of Lotoshino, Moscow Region.
Author of over 700 articles and books. Since June 26, 2006 he has been maintaining his website chudinov.ru.
Ideas
V. A. Chudinov believes that the “Slavic Vedic civilization ” arose long before all other known civilizations. In addition, he agrees with the era of the emergence of specifically the Russian (and not the Pre-Slavic) language.
The main research method of V. A. Chudinov is a close examination of photographs of historical images and objects, the study of their small details to search for hidden or time-lost texts. V. A. Chudinov discovers inscriptions where others see either a game of nature or purely artistic asymmetric patterns. At the same time, the inscriptions he read were written, according to Chudinov, either by the “runes of the Genus ” (as Chudinov claims, this is a “popular protokirillitsa” resembling the current civilian font , but usually with extreme unevenness and ligatures), or “ Makosh runes” (“priestly syllable” letter ”), whose syllabary , according to V. A. Chudinov, he deciphered in the course of his research. The "Runes of the Family", according to his version, served as the basis for the Cyrillic alphabet : Cyril (or his students) allegedly added several Greek letters to them to use the new alphabet in nascent Christianity, along with Greek and Latin.
V. A. Chudinov also finds traces of Slavic runic writing on the Paleolithic monuments. In addition, he corrected the table for deciphering Etruscan writing , proposed by Thaddeus (Tadeusz) Volansky and not recognized by science. The results of both generally coincide: the Etruscans allegedly spoke the Slavic language. In many art monuments of antiquity , the Middle Ages and later times, V. A. Chudinov sees encrypted Slavic texts. In his opinion, Slavic Vedism coexisted with Christianity before Nikon’s reforms , and Russian runic cryptography was used in places by the “initiates” ( Pushkin , Vasnetsov, Jean Cocteau , Tule society) in some places until the middle of the 19th century .
Chudinov sees runic inscriptions on more than 3 thousand archaeological and other objects. Among them - ancient shrines and sacred stones , objects of worship and utensils of ancient and pre-antique times, letters , Christian icons of the first centuries and other artifacts. Several times he was a participant in embarrassment when he decoded allegedly “Slavic runes” on cosmic bodies and objects of modern origin [13] .
Polemic
V. A. Chudinov has a physical education and an incomplete (up to the last year) philological, but most of his books are devoted to Slavic writing. None of his works have been published in peer-reviewed scientific journals of the ISI Knowledge list, which has recently included Russian journals.
One of its main methods is recognition of inscriptions containing Russian words and phrases (for example, “Rus Yara”, “Makoshi Temple”, etc.) on various surfaces with a complex pattern: stone walls of buildings and caves [14] , objects of material culture [15] , the surfaces of the Earth [16] , the Moon [17] , Mars [18] and the Sun [19] . According to the results of his research, Chudinov concludes that the Russian language is one of the oldest languages on Earth, and Russian writing has existed for at least two million years [20] .
On a mammoth it is written - “mammoth”, and on a horse it is written “dil”! From here came the Russian word "corcodile." Because the word-formation scheme is the same - “cortical dil” - a horse from a crust, and a crust - scales. Therefore, we do not have a distorted English or Latin word, but, on the contrary, the Latin word is a distorted Russian: it was a “cododel”, but it became a “ crocodile ”.
Chudinov’s numerous notes posted on his website are characterized by ad hominem argumentation appeals to real or imaginary ethnic origin (usually Jewish) of scientists who do not recognize his conclusions. So, in his article “ Gordon as Quixote and Zadornov as supposedly a windmill” [21] , published under the heading “Scientific polemics with opponents” [22] , Chudinov claims that “Russian Israelis” allow themselves “impudent accusations, interruption shouting, defaming the enemy, putting derogatory labels on him ”and supposedly preventing the Russians from exploring their own history. About the lecture of A. A. Zaliznyak, he writes [23] :
While the people were gathering, I was surprised by a large number of people of biblical nationality who, judging by their subsequent behavior, were keenly interested in the subject of the lecture. I would understand if it was about the German language, since Yiddish is a dialect of German. Interest in the English language would also be justified, because in the USA there is a large Jewish diaspora that speaks exclusively in English. However, at first I could not explain to myself the pragmatic interest of the representatives of this ethnic group specifically in the Russian language.
Criticism
Chudinov reads inscriptions not only on ancient objects, but also on modern ones, relating them to esoteric manifestations of the subtle plan . So, in 2008, Chudinov discovered on a map of the Baltic Sea from a book by V. I. Merkulov “Where did the Varangian guests come from?” Genealogical reconstruction according to German sources ” [24] ancient inscriptions allegedly oiled, according to him, by modern researchers, and proving the Slavic affiliation of a number of geographical points of the Baltic Sea . [25] Meanwhile, the author of the book, V. I. Merkulov, said that it was not ancient, but was independently made by him in Photoshop [26] , and the “differences in contrast” that Chudinov used to “decrypt” arose when scanning the map [27] [28] [29] . On May 5, 2009, under the guise of a photograph of the solar surface, Chudinov received a photograph of the texture of building plaster processed in a graphic editor and, despite a reservation about the doubtfulness of its origin, read on it “a number of structures associated with Russian gods” [30] . December 5, 2012 Chudinov discovered the inscription on the pyramid created using three-dimensional graphics, taking it for real [31] . February 28, 2013 V. A. Chudinov said that he had identified “faces and inscriptions” in the traces of the Chebarkul meteorite , indicating that “this is the result of a meteorite attack from the perspective of the subtle world” [32] .
The statements of Chudinov by science are not accepted due to the radical contradiction to the conclusions formed by modern history and linguistics, the methodology of science. Prominent Russian linguist V. A. Plungyan called Chudinov’s ideas fantasies that are “completely and completely outside the scope of modern science” [33] . The discovery by Chudinov of traces of Russian writing on the surface of the Sun is regarded as a manifestation of apophenia [34] .
Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences, linguist and epigraphist A. A. Zaliznyak in a public speech “On Professional and Amateur Linguistics” [35] , citing, in particular, Chudinov's work “The eve of the scientific revolution in the field of historiography”, noted:
An amateur linguist willingly plunges into a discussion of written monuments of the past, completely forgetting (or simply not knowing anything) that in the past the familiar language looked completely different from what it is now. To be convinced of this, it would be enough for a domestic lover to read in the original, say, “ A Tale of Bygone Years ” or try to independently understand two or three birch bark letters . But amateurs do not read Old Russian texts. Instead, many fans make attempts to read Russian inscriptions (or other texts) relating to different centuries BC. e. or to the early centuries AD e., and it is absolutely optional on the territory of Russia, for example, inscriptions on Etruscan or Cretan monuments or vessels. It is clear that “in Russian” means “in modern Russian” for them - they simply don’t know Old Russian ... None of these readings has any chance of being true for the simple reason that twenty-five, or twenty, or fifteen centuries ago, the language of our ancestors was unrecognizable unlike modern Russian ...
In the arguments of amateur linguists, “reverse reading” is an event that occurs at every step in the history of words and generates “word-shifters” in the language ... Backward reading as a source of the appearance of words is absurd in the square, because, firstly, words do not they read backwards, secondly, the words of a living language do not arise from a written source at all (the scientific terms of the current sciences do not count) ...
... For example, amateur linguists, inspired by the idea of Russian-Etruscan identity, not only boldly read Etruscan inscriptions in Russian, but also very readily use their readings to justify the thesis about the wide expansion of Russians in ancient times ... I emphasize that they are quite ordinary for lovers of the statement that Latin , or English, or German, etc., came from Russian, and not even from the ancient, but precisely from the one we speak now. Some are even more decisive and tell us that all languages generally came from Russian. Nothing more ridiculous from the point of view of the actual history of languages cannot be invented. Not to mention that such “discoveries” are made by people who, out of 99% of the world's languages, do not know a single word, do not even know the names of these languages. But, alas, this absurdity amuses the pride of a certain part of readers.
The historian, deputy academician-secretary of the Department of Historical and Philological Sciences of the Russian Academy of Sciences A.E. Petrov spoke about Chudinov as follows [36] :
There is such a pseudo-researcher of Ancient Russia by the name of Chudinov. <...> He has bear scratches on all possible snags across the territory of our immense Motherland, and not only our Motherland, he believes in a Slavic letter, he produces whole Slavic, and, moreover, Russian texts already in the Paleolithic.
Lev Netsvetaev , Honorary Architect of Russia, member of the Union of Artists of Russia, in a review of the book “Secret Writings in Drawings by A. S. Pushkin. The answer to the code of genius ”, published in issue No. 35 (6135) of the Literary Newspaper , notes the incorrectness of finding hidden inscriptions in Pushkin’s drawings:
The answer is simple: and there are no letters there, but there is only a passionate (if not painful) desire to see them. And all the numerous (279) illustrations, despite their poor quality (the author did not work with the originals, but with reproductions), cry about this. The lines that have become shaggy due to the strong increase are arbitrarily cut by the author into segments remotely resembling letters; at the same time, the author also often rotates them 90 or even 180 degrees — Pushkin looked interesting, turning the paper around and around while drawing. Chudinov’s quick stroke is also arbitrarily pulled into pieces - and Gogol’s collar has already “spoken”, and a simple stroke on the manuscript of the poem “The Caucasus” appears with the phrase: “A. S. Pushkin watched poetry. " Is this ridiculous phrase (by the way, what’s secret in it?) Worth the excruciating cipher into a curl that gives the impression of an inscription immediately? [37]
Pushkinist , Doctor of Philology Valentin Nepomnyashchy agrees with him:
Chudinov undertook to disassemble Pushkin's drawings, and now he finds runic letters in his hair curls, folds of clothes, etc., which, scientifically speaking, cannot be verified and leaves a painful impression (“Secret Writing in Pushkin's Drawings”). [38]
