Having removed the veil (omophorion) from her head, she spread it over the people praying in the temple, protecting them from enemies visible and invisible. The heavenly queen offered a prayer for the salvation of the world, for the deliverance of people from troubles and adversity. This wonderful vision appeared to Saint Andrew the Fool and his disciple Epiphanius, who, in response to the teacher’s question, said: “I see, holy father, and I am horrified.” First those praying, and then all the inhabitants of the city, hearing about the phenomenon, were filled with joy and hope. One way or another, the Saracens were repulsed. In the 12th century in Rus', in honor of this miraculous salvation, Prince ANDREY BOGOLYUBSKY erected the famous Church of the Intercession on the Nerl near Vladimir and established the Feast of the Intercession of the Mother of God, which the Russian Orthodox Church celebrates on October 14.

1856 - In a French magazine Revue de Paris Gustave Flaubert's novel Madame Bovary began to be published.
The novel, which was included in the treasury of world literature and had the subtitle “Provincial Morals,” was published in the magazine until December 15, and the following year it was published as a separate publication in two volumes and already in 1858 it was translated into Russian. Its author was not yet 35 years old, and the book became his literary debut. It took five years to work on the novel, he wrote: “Bovary is moving slowly; for a whole week - two pages!!! There’s something to punch yourself in the face for.” Official public opinion took up arms against the novel, and the government even brought the author and publisher to trial on charges of “insulting public morals, religion and good morals.” With the help of a brilliant defense, Flaubert managed to avoid a conviction, a fine, and a ban on his novel. But then he lost his friends forever: the writer du CAN and the poet LAURENT-PICHAT published his novel in a magazine in an abbreviated form, distorted to their taste - and Flaubert did not forgive them for this insult.
The writer, who suffered from epilepsy, never married, and is it only the author’s nature hidden behind his famous phrase: “Emma Bovary is me”?
1888 - Sofia University was founded - the first higher education institution in Bulgaria. ( In fact, this date should be celebrated on October 13, since the country lived according to the Julian calendar until 1916.)

Your victory is the victory of all the working people of our country... Warm Bolshevik greetings to all the builders of the first auto giant in the USSR - the AMO plant.”

In the resolution of the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks that soon followed, the publication of the book was characterized as a major event in the ideological life of the party, because the party received a powerful new ideological weapon, an encyclopedia of basic knowledge in the field of Marxism-Leninism. Party members were now armed with knowledge of the laws of social development and political struggle, a means of increasing the political vigilance of communists and non-party members. In creating this work, the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party (Bolsheviks) proceeded primarily from the idea of providing a unified guide to the history of the party, representing the official interpretation, verified by the Central Committee, of the main issues of the history of the party and Marxism-Leninism. The publication of the “Short Course of the CPSU(b) put an end to the arbitrariness and confusion in the presentation of the most important issues of the theory and history of the party, which took place in a number of previously published textbooks on the history of the party.
Having prescribed a course of a powerful drug to everyone (over 14 years, the book was published in over 40 million copies in the languages of the peoples of the USSR and over 11 million more were published in foreign languages), party ideologists immediately put an end to the fog in the heads of patients and at the same time saved themselves from headaches .

For the first time, organizations were called criminal: the leadership of the National Socialist Party, the assault (SA) and security (SS) detachments, the security service (SD), the secret police (Gestapo). The Tribunal also decided that crimes against humanity are not subject to statute of limitations.

World Space Week
On 6 December 1999, the General Assembly proclaimed the period from 4 to 10 October as World Space Week to celebrate the contribution of space science and technology to human well-being. The idea to establish World Space Week first appeared at the 3rd UN World Space Conference. At this forum, the Moroccan delegation put forward a proposal to proclaim July 20 as World Space Day, coinciding this date with the day the US expedition landed on the Moon. Morocco's proposal was received very ambiguously. Most delegations expressed support for the idea of declaring a special World Space Day. However, the date itself caused widespread debate. An unexpected proposal was made by the Iranian delegate. He proposed celebrating not World Space Day, but World Space Week, which could begin on October 4 and end on October 10. Such an unexpected proposal found support among most countries, including Russia, since it was based on two important dates for it. This is the launch of the first artificial Earth satellite and the entry into force of the Outer Space Treaty, which was developed at the initiative of Russia. The proposal for World Space Week was unanimously supported by the conference participants.
World Animal Day
The decision to celebrate World Animal Day was made on October 4 at the International Congress of Nature Supporters, held in Florence in 1931. Animal protection societies in many countries around the world have declared their readiness to annually organize a variety of public events. In Russia, this date has been celebrated since 2000 on the initiative of the International Fund for Animal Welfare. Animal Day was established to raise public awareness of the need to protect the environment and increase activity in animal protection.
Civil Defense Day of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia
Today, civil defense is one of the most important functions of the state, an integral part of defense construction and ensuring the country's security. Over the past years, specialized units of Russian civil defense have taken part in more than 150 thousand rescue operations in Russia and 48 countries around the world. Currently, a unified state system for preventing and responding to emergency situations (RSChS) has been formed and is effectively operating in Russia, which is a national system for countering crisis phenomena.
International Doctors Day (date for 2009)
The profession of a doctor is one of the most ancient. The first professional oath of a doctor was the Hippocratic Oath. At the initiative of the World Health Organization, the first Monday in October is celebrated as International Doctors Day. This is a day of solidarity and active action among doctors around the world. In 1971, the international medical humanitarian organization Doctors Without Borders - Medecins Sans Frontieres, MSF - was created. MSF, operating under the auspices of the UN, provides assistance to victims of natural disasters, armed conflicts, epidemics, social marginalization in more than 80 countries around the world, helping everyone, regardless of political, religious or ethnic affiliation. Each year, around 700 MSF health workers work in hot spots around the world.
World Architects Day (date for 2009)
In 1996, the International Union of Architects, at its 20th General Assembly in Barcelona, adopted a resolution to move the celebration of World Architecture Day to the first Monday in October. The International Union of Architects was created immediately after the Second World War. Then his goal was to resolve the pressing problem of restoring war-torn cities, towns and industrial enterprises - the consequences of the Second World War. Now the ISA has about one hundred national sections and more than a million architects. Traditionally, on this day, architects all over the world gather at conferences where they discuss the conditions and results of their activities, consider the problems of architectural education, and organize creative discussions. Exhibitions are organized on this day. Every year the holiday has a specific theme.
World Shelter Day (date for 2009)
World Habitat Day is celebrated on the first Monday of October; its other name is International Housing Day (from the English “habitat” - “housing conditions”).

Problems of housing and living conditions were raised at a high level at the first UN conference on sustainable settlement development in Vancouver in 1976. The world has changed significantly since then, but the problems of poverty, pollution and disease remain acute.
290th anniversary of the birth of Giovanni Piranesi (1720–1778)
Italian archaeologist, architect and graphic artist. Born on October 4, 1720 in Mogliano Veneto, in the family of a stonemason. He was taught the basics of Latin and classical literature by his older brother Angelo. Later, while working in the Venice magistrate under the guidance of his uncle, he learned the basics of architecture. In 1740, Piranesi travels to Rome. There he enthusiastically explores ancient architecture. Along the way, he studied the art of metal engraving in the workshop of Giuseppe Vasi. In 1743, Piranesi published his first series of engravings in Rome. In his engravings, he imagined and showed fantastic architectural structures that were impossible to realize in reality. The collection of large engravings "Grotesques", published in 1745, as well as a series of fourteen sheets "Fantasies on Prison Themes" brought him great success. In these works, Piranesi paid tribute to the so-called paper, or imaginary, architecture. In 1763, Pope Clement III commissioned Piranesi to build the choir in the Church of San Giovanni in Laterano. Piranesi's main work in the field of real, “stone” architecture was the reconstruction of the church of Santa Maria Aventina. The work was carried out in 1764–1765. In the 1770s, Piranesi also carried out measurements of the temples of Paestum and made corresponding sketches and engravings, which were published after the artist's death by his son Francesco. The artist died on November 9, 1778 in Rome after a long illness. He was buried in the church of Santa Maria del Priorato.
