SVIATOSLAV II, PRINCE OF CHERNIGOV

Sviatoslav Olgovich (died Feb. 14, 1164) was the Prince of Novgorod (1136 - 1138), Novgorod - Seversky (1139), Belgorod Kievsky (1141 - 1154), and Chernigov (1154 - 1164). He was the son of Oleg Sviatoslavich, Prince of Chernigov (c. 1052 - 1115) daughter of Asaduk, Khan of the Cumans.

After the death of his older brother, Vsevolod II (Grand Prince of Kiev 1139 - 1146), Sviatoslav and his brother Igor II (Grand Prince of Kiev for two weeks in 1146) were driven out of Kiev by Iziaslav Mstislavich. Sviatoslav escaped but Igor was captured and eventually killed in 1147. Sviatoslav fled to Chernigov but was ordered to relinquish Novgorod - Severski to his cousins, the brothers Iziaslav and Vladimir Davidovich. With the assistance of his ally, Yuri Dolgoruki, and his father in law, Aepa Khan, Sviatoslav began a war against the brothers Davidovichi but was forced to flee to Karachev. Taking a stand at Karachev, Sviatoslav defeated the brothers Davidovichi on January 16, 1147.

In 1108, Sviatoslav married a Cuman princess, daughter of Aepa Khan, who gave him a daughter and a son, Oleg. In 1136 Svyatoslav married a second time, to a woman of Novgorod, who bore his famous son Igor Svyatoslavich (a.k.a. "Igor the Brave").

Source -- "Sviatoslav Olgovich" / en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sviatoslav_Olgovich (citing Martin Dimnik -- "The Dynasty of Chernigov, 1146 - 1246")

Commentary -- Khan Aepa was father in law of both Sviatoslav II and Yuri Dolgoruki. However, at the time of the alliance between Sviatoslav, Yuri Dolgoruki, and Khan Aepa in 1146 / 1147 Anna Aepovna (first wife of Yuri Dolgoruki) had been dead some twenty - two years, having died in 1124. In the instance of ________ Aepovna (first wife of Sviatoslav), she had been dead some twelve years, extrapolating from the marriage year (1136) of Sviatoslav and his second wife, "a woman of Novgorod".

О Святославе Ольговиче, князе Черниговском (русский)

В крещении Георгий, в иночестве Гавриил. Середина XII века была для Руси скорбным временем непрерывных междоусобных браней за Киевское княжение двух княжеских группировок: Ольговичей и Мстиславичей. Святой Игорь, волей Божией вступивший в борьбу за Киевское княжение, мученическим подвигом должен был искупить наследственный грех княжеских усобиц.

1 августа 1146 г. умер князь Всеволод, горделивое княжение которого не любили киевляне, но оно послужило для возбуждения ненависти к его брату Игорю и всем Ольговичам. Св. Игорь, против воли вовлеченный в самый центр событий, стал невинной жертвой нараставшей ненависти. Под Киевом произошла битва между войсками князя Игоря и Изяслава Мстиславича, и киевские войска в разгар сражения перешли на сторону Изяслава. Четыре дня Игорь Ольгович скрывался в болотах около Киева. Там его взяли в плен, привезли в Киев и посадили в «поруб». Это случилось 13 августа. Все его княжение продолжалось всего две недели.

В порубе (это был холодный бревенчатый сруб, без окон и дверей; чтобы освободить из него человека, надо было «вырубить» его оттуда) многострадальный князь тяжело заболел и был близок к смерти. В этих условиях противники князя разрешили «вырубить» его из заточения и постричь в схиму в Киевском Феодоровском монастыре. Божией помощью князь выздоровел и, оставшись иноком монастыря, проводил время в слезах и молитве. Но год спустя, в 1147 г., киевское вече, желая отомстить роду Ольговичей, постановило расправиться с князем-иноком. Митрополит и духовенство, правивший в Киеве князь Изяслав Мстиславич и особенно его брат князь Владимир старались вразумить и предотвратить это бессмысленное кровопролитие, спасти святого мученика.

Восставшие ворвались в храм во время литургии, схватили молившегося пред иконой Божией Матери св. Игоря и потащили его на расправу. Ожесточение толпы было столь велико, что даже мертвое тело страдальца подвергли избиению и поруганию. Когда вечером того же дня тело блаженного Игоря было перенесено в церковь святого Михаила, «Бог явил над ним знамение велико, зажглись свечи все над ним в церкви той». На другое утро святой страдалец был погребен в монастыре св. Симеона, на окраине Киева. В 1150 г. князь Черниговский Святослав Ольгович перенес мощи своего брата в Чернигов и положил в Спасском соборе. Чудотворная икона Божией Матери, перед которой молился мученик перед биением, стала называться Игоревской, празднование ей 5/18 июня.



Жену-половчанку князю Святославу выбрал не он сам, а Великий князь Киевский Владимир Мономах. Таким образом он несколькими династическими браками скрепил мир с половцами, который, впрочем, вскоре был нарушен.[6] Жена князя Святослава — родная (по хану-отцу) сестра жены основателя Москвы князя Юрия Долгорукого.[
