Kирилло-Mефодиевскиe исследования и издания в Польше после Первой мировой войны: достижения и перспективы
Cyrillo-Methodian Studies in Poland after WWII: Accomplishments and Perspectives

Summary/Abstract: Questions regarding Cyril and Methodius and their legacy—traditionally one of the major themes for Slavic studies—have been the object of intense exploration by Polish scholars since WW2. The new geo-political situation in the Polish state and society after 1945 left an imprint on medievalist scholarship, even though most of the authors managed to avoid excessive ideologization. Certain changes in the ways the work of SS. Cyril and Methodius is described and evaluated became visible after the fall of communism in Poland as well. In the course of almost eight decades, Polish scholars have produced a considerable number of books, papers and anthologies related to Cyril and Methodius, which constitute an important contribution to international Slavic Medieval studies. This article attempts to review in a synthetic form the Cyrillo-Methodian publications that appeared in Poland after 1945 as well as those produced by leading Polish researchers for foreign publications.
