Summary/Abstract: Regarding the thematic focus of the study, it is important to highlight the contribution of St. Methodius in terms of literary achievement, both translational and original, in tackling the legal-canonic problématique. We consider and de- termine these questions through the scientific research prism of the 20th century. Based on several archaic linguistic par- ticularities, as well as many other general characteristics, literary memoirs of the likes of Synagogue of 50 Titles/Names, Civil Law, Orders of the Holy Fathers, as well as the anonymous Homily found in the Klotz Code are all attributed to the literary pursuits of Methodius. Especially important is to determinate the role of St. Methodius in his translation, creative work, and application in correlation with the question of the existence of the Corpus Methodiana Juridica, as a canon law collection of a wider scope compiled by Methodius.
