Cultural and Religious Reasons for the Establishment of the Sisters of Angels

Summary/Abstract: The article analyses the founding of the Sisters of Angels in the context of women’s emancipation and the situation of the Church in Russia. It is the unique congregation established in the 19th century outside the Kingdom of Poland. The aim of the research is to analyze the reasons for the community's distinctiveness from other non-habit-wearing congregations. The methodology includes an analysis of 19th-century publications on women’s emancipation and archival documents of the founders of the congregations. The conclusions point to the emancipatory context of the beginnings of the Sisters of the Angels due to their national and spiritual values.
