Св. Јероним Стридонски и историјски контекст „Знаменитих мужева“

Св. Јероним Стридонски и историјски контекст „Знаменитих мужева“

Author(s): Radovan Pilipović / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 1/2012

The author deals with the contextualisation of the work „On Illustrious Men“ in the overall St. Jerome’s literary- theological work. By following the structure and the tendency of St. Jerome’s work and by setting this pioneering achievement (as the first written history of christian literature) in relation to the general currents of that era and certain moments from St. Jerome’s biography, the assessment of the mentioned work for the theologians and historians of the Early Church becomes the center of this article. Moreover, in addition to the review of possible ubications of ancient Stridon, the article also deals with the history of veneration of St. Jerome in both Eastern and Western christian traditions.

Свети Бернар из Тирона и његова реформисана бенедиктинска заједница — кратак осврт

Свети Бернар из Тирона и његова реформисана бенедиктинска заједница — кратак осврт

Author(s): Miroslav M. Popović / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 1/2020

Abbot Bernard of Tiron (c. 1046–1117) was one of the many Catholic Church people and religious leaders who had many followers at the turn of the 11th to 12th centuries, and his importance went beyond the local. Bernard’s settlement did not develop in the same way as other small hermit communities that disappeared or were gathered by the larger monastic congregations. Tiron will become the head of the association of the monasteries and Bernard as founder will be honored in the writings of his life and work. His success in Tiron was widely recognized and the monastic community he founded attracted attention after he died and, for some period of time, was recognized as one of the most important representatives of monastic life. The present article is an attempt to show the activities of St. Bernard of Tyrone, a Benedictine reformer from the 11th and early 12th centuries, and the founder of the abbey in Tyrone, which stood out by returning to a stricter Benedictine way of life and had a network of monasteries. With his life and career as an abbot and hermit, he set an example and gathered people around him, and in that way influenced the transformation of the religious life of that time, primarily in France and England.

Свети Бруно из Келна и картузијански ред

Author(s): Miroslav M. Popović / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 2/2016

In the 11th century there were several attempts to institutionalize the life of hermits, one of which is linked to Bruno of Cologne (about 1030–1101) and his Carthusian order. It was named after its main monastery in the Chartreuse in the alpine regions of eastern France. Carthusians have become small, stable religious order, sometimes with life- like hermitage, sometimes Benedictine. From the moment St. Bruno of Cologne founded the Carthusian Order, the Order is regarded as the strictest in the Roman Catholic Church, with the tradition of eremitical solitude, silence, abstinence and contemplative withdrawal from the world, which is very little changed even after the Second Vatican Council.

Свети Васељенски Сабори: Осми (879–880. г.) и Девети (1351. г.)

Author(s): Atanasije Jevtić / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 1/2012

The aim of this article is to present the necessary arguments so that the Councils held in Constantinople in 879–880 and in 1351 could be accepted as Ecumenical Councils. The author gives a historical overview of the reception of these Councils in the Orthodox Church showing that they were considered to be Ecumenical before the “western enslavement” of Orthodox theology, and in the end gives concrete suggestions concerning the work of the future Great Pan-Оrthodox Council.

Свети Василије Велики – почетак аскетског живота

Свети Василије Велики – почетак аскетског живота

Author(s): Aleksandar Lekić / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 1/2018

The goal of this study is to show the beginning of the ascetic life of Saint Basil the Great. Basil’s decision to pursue ascetic life was influenced by Eustathius of Sebaste, his teacher and one of the founders of monastic movement in Asia Minor, and his older sister Macrina. After ending his studies in Athens, Basil returned home and for a short period of time he taught rhetoric in Caesarea of Cappadocia. However, he decided not to follow in his father’s footsteps. He abandoned his career which has just started and traveled to East, where he met local ascetics. Upon his return, he received the Holy mystery of Baptism, abandoned the worldly way of life and found a place of his future spiritual struggle, near his family’s estate in Pontos. There, Basil was joined by some unknown brothers and soon also, by his friend Gregory from Athens. The brotherhood in Anissa led a structured way of life; they lived together in houses they had built themselves, cultivated land and gathered for prayer. From the very beginning, Basil was the leader of the community, wrote works for ascetics, but, at the same time, he had a constant correspondence with many people from the outside world and had prepared himself for the forthcoming important service in the Church.

Свети Норберт и ред премонстрата

Author(s): Miroslav M. Popović / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 1/2015

Premonstratensians were founded by St. Norbert of Xanten (c. 1080–1134), at Prémontré, France, in 1120/21. They represent a religious community which gathered contemplative and active religious life. As an order of regular canons in the 12th century they were a sort of connection between strictly contemplative life of the previous period and the life of Mendicant Orders of the 13th century. St. Norbert was a prominent figure of the early 12th century and enjoyed great respect with his contemporaries.

Свети Сава и подизање Милешеве

Author(s): Gojko Subotić,Ljubomir Maksimović / Language(s): Serbian Publication Year: 0

The portraits of the historical personalities in Mile{eva are a primary source for the question of when the monastery was built, considering that the biographers of the archbishop Sava Nemanji}, either make no mention of the latter's role in its construction (Domentijan) or do not record that role specifically, even though connecting it with the time of King Vladislav (Teodosije). In the naos, Vladislav is depicted as the donor, and in the narthex he appears, on the western wall, with the members of his family, conducted by St. Simeon, while depicted on the southern wall are SS. Constantine and Helen and an unknown person in the robes of a Byzantine ruler. Having in mind that Saint Sava was also the creator of the thematic program in the Church of the Mother of God in Studenica, we should focus our consideration on a text — the famous inscription at the base of the dome — penned by Saint Sava himself. The inscription stresses that the Grand Zhupan Simeon Nemanja was the svat of the Greek emperor Alexios (III) Angelos (meaning that Alexios' daughter Eudokia was married to Nemanja's son, Stefan.) The cited words are all the more worthy of attention by virtue of the fact that in 1208/9, when the inscription was composed, Eudokia was no longer married to Sava's brother, nor was Alexios III even on the throne of the Byzantine Empire to see the fall of Constantinople in the IV Crusade (1204). The inscription testifies to the unchanged relationship towards Byzantine authority even after such a colossal disaster as the first collapse of the Empire in 1204. One can see the same relationship in Mile{eva as well. Here, with the image of Stefan the First Crowned, just as with Nemanja in Studenica, direct kinship is highlighted with the Byzantine ruling house, that is to say, with Alexios III. Be side the portrait of Stefan, in the right, preserved part of the inscription, one can read: Stefan, son of Saint Simeon Nemanja, son-in-law of the Greek emperor, kyr Alexios. For those reasons, it is certain that the image of the Byzantine ruler in Mile{eva represented the emperor Alexios III Angelos. With a clear scheme en compassing the members of the two dynasties and determining their relationships, Sava closed the thematic circle dedicated to the historical personalities who were direct and indirect involved in the construction of Mile{eva and its decoration.

Секуляризация идеи церкви в трудах научной интеллигенции Украинской ССР второй половины 1980-х гг.

Секуляризация идеи церкви в трудах научной интеллигенции Украинской ССР второй половины 1980-х гг.

Author(s): R. A. Savchuk / Language(s): Russian Issue: 4/2021

In modern conditions, there is an increased public attention to the religious factor in the interstate relations between Russia and Ukraine. The growing tension in the development and internal structure of the Orthodox Church has been observed in Ukraine since the declaration of independence, when parallel Orthodox Church organizations with different attitudes to the issue of autocephaly and cultural and political orientation began to form on the territory of the state. This article attempts to analyze the main directions in understanding the role and place of the church factor. It was in the second half of the 1980 s that the foundations were laid for the development of discussions on the development of the national church after Ukraine's declaration of independence. With the help of historical-typological and historical-comparative methods, the publications of Ukrainian historians, literary critics, philosophers and public figures of the second half of the 1980 s are analyzed. Conclusions about the formation of two directions of the secularization of the idea of the Church in the worldview of the Ukrainian secular intelligentsia of this period are substantiated. The rational-sensuous direction is typical for representatives of nationalist-minded circles. The authors in this direction valued the authority of the Church as an autonomous public institution, but sought to subordinate it to the national idea, to put it at the service of the state ideology. The second direction — conventionally called utilitarian instrumentalist-developed on the basis of Soviet atheist ideology and considered the Church and religion as a whole as an element of ideology, an instrument for the implementation of political power and public consciousness.

СЕМАНТИЧНІ ЦЕРКОВНОСЛОВ’ЯНІЗМИ В СУЧАСНІЙ УКРАЇНСЬКІЙ МОВІ

СЕМАНТИЧНІ ЦЕРКОВНОСЛОВ’ЯНІЗМИ В СУЧАСНІЙ УКРАЇНСЬКІЙ МОВІ

Author(s): Tetiana NOVIKOVA / Language(s): Ukrainian Issue: 1/2022

The article examines and analyzes the words attested in the dictionaries of the Ukrainian language and whose meanings, in our opinion, came from the Church Slavonic language, although etymological dictionaries do not indicate their Church Slavonic origin, but fix as Proto-Slavic. The purpose of the work is to collect and systematize Church Slavonic languages used in the modern Ukrainian language, to characterize their representation in its main dictionaries; to single out words whose meanings, in our opinion, came from the Church Slavonic language. The relevance of the article stems from the need for a comprehensive analysis of Church Slavonic, which is an organic component of the Ukrainian language. The urgency of this issue in modern Ukrainian linguistics is due not only to its lack of coverage and some fragmentation of the results achieved, but also to the fact that in addition to linguistic and historical and cultural aspects, it has a certain rehabilitation focus. The results of the research stems from the need for a comprehensive analysis of Church Slavonic, which is an organic component of the Ukrainian language. The urgency of this issue in modern Ukrainian linguistics is due not only to its insufficient coverage and a certain fragmentation of the results, but also to the fact that in addition to linguistic, historical and cultural aspects, it has a certain rehabilitation orientation. The following scientific methods were used in the study: the descriptive method, the method of quantitative calculations, the method of comparison, the method of linguistic observation and classification. The scientific novelty of the obtained results is that for the first time in Ukrainian linguistics a comprehensive lexical and semantic analysis of Church Slavonic was carried out, a group of semantic Church Slavonic was identified, which allows to determine the place languages in Ukrainian. Conclusions. We recorded 590 such words: 355 tokens, whose semantics denote various religious and biblical concepts, and which are listed in dictionaries of the Church Slavonic language, but etymological dictionaries are not recorded as coming from the Church Slavonic language or through it, and 235 tokens describing various non-church concepts, often used in the biblical text, and recorded in dictionaries of the Church Slavonic language.

Семіосфера біблійних образів: функціонування в культурі

Семіосфера біблійних образів: функціонування в культурі

Author(s): Olena Anatoliyivna Stepanova / Language(s): Ukrainian Issue: 4/2019

Purpose of the article is to study the essence of the functioning of “wandering” biblical images in culture and the disclosure of retransmitted senses, the semantic core of which is explicated on the basis of the narratives of the Holy Scriptures, as well as previous cultural topos. The methodology of the research consists of using the structural-semiotic method, which makes it possible to interpret the semantic meanings of individual biblical images and explain the strategies of its functioning in culture. The scientific novelty consists in proving the study of the functioning of biblical images in the continuum of world culture, in particular by the example of the semiosphere of the figure of the Saint Mark the Evangelist, present in the cultural texts of both the Christian East and the West. The functioning of this Christian image is analyzed not only in the traditional sacral culture (iconography, music), which can be traced throughout history but also in modern popular culture. Conclusions. Biblical images that are universal in their meaning function in the context of intertextual relations – in different types of art, national cultures, and confessional communities over a long chronological dimension, including modernity. The image of the Evangelist Mark demonstrates how the inner semantic potential of this saint “travels” and reinterprets, presenting the deeper meanings of the Gospel narrative, which acts as a semantic core. The broad references of the semiosphere of the image of St. Mark create a complex interweaving of “texts in texts,” whose orderly interpretation provides a meaningful perception. The analyzed image of St. Mark the Evangelist demonstrates how the inner semantic potential of this figure of Christian history "travels" and reinterprets, presenting the deep meanings of the evangelical narrative that emerges as a semantic core.

Система организации епархиального управления Белорусской автокефальной православной церкви в 1949–1980 гг.

Author(s): Aleksandr Slesarev / Language(s): Russian Issue: 23/2021

The article is devoted to the consideration of the history of the development of the system of diocesan administrations of the unrecognized Belarusian Autocephalous Orthodox Church (BAOC). Formed in 1948–1949, the named religious organization over the next several decades was an influential center for the consolidation of the Belarusian post-war Diaspora. The activities of the parishes of the BAOC were not limited to the organization of services and involved the conduct of social, cultural, educational, publishing and other work. In turn, the control, management and coordination of parish activities largely depended on the principles of organizing diocesan administration. On the basis of the study, it is concluded that the volume of administrative powers of the episcopate is gradually reduced and the role of the laity in the administration of dioceses is strengthened. The noted instability of the diocesan structures of the BAOC in the period under review is explained by the high degree of dependence of the diocesan affiliation of parishes on the relationship with a particular hierarch.

Скорина и Пико делла Мирандола: Предисловие к 4-й Книге Ездры Маначинского библейского свода 1575–1577 годов и чешская Библия Мелантриха 1556–1561 годов

Author(s): Sergey Yurievich Temchin / Language(s): Russian Issue: 03/2020

The Cyrillic Preface to the 4th Book of Esdra in the Manachin Bible Florilegium of 1575–1577 mentions Giovanni Pico della Mirandola and is believed to be a text written by Francisk Skorina, the publisher of Cyrillic Bible and other books in Prague (1517–1519) and Vilnius (ca. 1522–1525). The author argues that this Cyrillic Preface is a translation from Melanrich’s Czech Bible of 1556–1561 and, thus, does not belong to Skorina.

Славянските просветители Кирил и Методий и късновъзрожденските зографи

Author(s): Elena Genova / Language(s): English,Bulgarian Issue: 1/2015

The church murals of the period of Bulgarian National Revival include inevitably in the tier of the standing saints representations of SS Cyril and Methodius, among the Slavic holy hierarchs. An extraordinary in terms of its scope phenomenon of the age was the mass painting of their images together on icons and murals. Each church either commissioned or was presented with several at times icons of the holy brothers or icon-painters rendered their representations. The shaping of the representations of SS Cyril and Methodius in a joint composition, evincing certain attributes, could be explained not only by the rapid and ubiquitous establishing of a jointly celebrated feast day of the two saints. This composition was predicated on literary sources rather than on repetition and copying of medieval models. It highlighted their isoapostolic contribution to the cause. In the late nineteenth and the early twentieth centuries, a team of icon-painters from Bansko worked in the southwestern parts of Bulgaria: Michalko Uvanov Golev and Dimiter Sirleshtov, who painted 11 churches in the regions of Blagoevgrad and Kyustendil. SS Cyril and Methodius are painted at the churches of The Presentation of the Most Holy Mother of God into the Temple, Blagoevgrad (1882–1889); of St John the Baptist, village of Bistritsa/Dubova Neighbourhood (1882–1883); St Elijah the Prophet, village of Selishte(1888–1889); St Michael the Archangel, village of Leshko (1889); The Holy Ascension, village of Pokrovnik (1891–1901); St Demetrius, village of Drenkovo (1892–1893); St Demetrius, village of Marulevo (1893); St Michael the Archangel, village of Logodash (1896–1898); SS Peter and Paul, village of Palat, region of Blagoevgrad (1909–1910). The representations of SS Cyril and Methodius by Michalko Golev and Dimiter Sirleshtov demonstrate the various types of compositions they have used, including the representations of the holy brother in the altar apse. Moreover, they show also the committed attitude towards the personalities of the holy brothers, typical not only of the two icon-painters, but also of the rest of the icon-painters from the region, who stood for their national identity until 1912.

Слика Михаила VIII у делима историчара епохе палеолога

Слика Михаила VIII у делима историчара епохе палеолога

Author(s): Maja Nikolić,Bojana Pavlović / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 54/2017

The present paper tends to examine the image of the founder of the Palaiologan dynasty, Michael VIII (1259‒1282), in the historical works written during the reign of the last Byzantine dynasty and after the Fall of Constantinople in 1453. With the analysis of Michael’s coming to the throne and the union of the churches in Lyons in 1274, it looks as if the first ruler of the Palaiologoi was mostly remembered, in historiography and among the most learned, elite circles of the capital, as a usurper of the throne and rights of his minor predecessor, Emperor John IV Laskaris. The blinding of the son of Theodore II was an event that had far reaching consequences not only during the reign of Michael VIII, but also his consequent heirs.

Служба викарног епископа у 8. веку у Западној Европи

Служба викарног епископа у 8. веку у Западној Европи

Author(s): Ivica Čairović / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 1/2013

A vicar is a representative, deputy or substitute of the bishop. The title appears in a number of Christian ecclesiastical contexts, but also as an administrative title, or title modifier, in the Roman Empire. The Pope uses the title Vicarius Christi, meaning the vicar of Christ. The papacy first used this title in the 8th century; earlier they used the title „vicar of Saint Peter“ or vicarius principis apostolorum, the „vicar of the chief of the apostles“. On the other hand, Wilibrord (658–739) and Boniface (+754) made a new practice. First, Wilibrord made vicar bishops for him, so he had preached without administrative problems in his diocese. And after him, Boniface made two vicars. They were Anglo- Saxon in origin and made a new practice in the Church, in West. In the early Christian churches, bishops likewise had their vicars, and also the rural bishops, the curate who had the cure or care of all the souls outside the episcopal cities. Vicars have various titles based on what role they are performing. In the West, an apostolic vicar is a bishop or priest who heads a missionary particular. Vicars exercise authority as the agents of the bishop of the diocese for one kind of office. Most vicars, however, have ordinary power, which means that their agency is not by virtue of a delegation but is established by law.

Сотириологията на православната аскетическа традиция в Древната църква и днес въз основа на словата на св. Доротей Газски (+560) и св. Порфирий Кавсокаливит (+1991)

Author(s): Stoyan Chilikov / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 2/2021

The text aims to explore the soteriological nature of the ascetic views of two of the most remarkable ascetic fathers. Based on a comparative analysis, are traced the general moments in their writings, as well as their differences, which outline the development of the ascetic tradition from antiquity to the present day. Abba Dorotheos conveys the ascetic experience of the Egyptian ascetics of the sixth century, the core of which is the spiritual struggle, the cutting off of passions and the acquiring of virtues. At the heart of the Christian feat, St. Porphyrios places the love for God, which transforms passions, converts evil and deifies man, with the focus being not on the fight against the passions, but on Christ and the communion with Him. Sacraments, prayer, worship lead one to praise and contemplation of God. In the words of St. Porphyrios of Kavsokalivia the correlation between soteriology and ecclesiology is much more clearly expressed.
