  • Dositheos Notaras, the Patriarch of Jerusalem (1669-1707), Confronts the Challenges of Modernity
    IN SEARCH OF A CONFESSIONAL IDENTITY: DOSITHEOS NOTARAS, THE PATRIARCH OF JERUSALEM (1669-1707), CONFRONTS THE CHALLENGES OF MODERNITY A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Christopher George Rene IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Adviser Theofanis G. Stavrou SEPTEMBER 2020 © Christopher G Rene, September 2020 i Acknowledgements Without the steadfast support of my teachers, family and friends this dissertation would not have been possible, and I am pleased to have the opportunity to express my deep debt of gratitude and thank them all. I would like to thank the members of my dissertation committee, who together guided me through to the completion of this dissertation. My adviser Professor Theofanis G. Stavrou provided a resourceful outlet by helping me navigate through administrative channels and stay on course academically. Moreover, he fostered an inviting space for parrhesia with vigorous dialogue and intellectual tenacity on the ideas of identity, modernity, and the role of Patriarch Dositheos. It was in fact Professor Stavrou who many years ago at a Slavic conference broached the idea of an Orthodox Commonwealth that inspired other academics and myself to pursue the topic. Professor Carla Phillips impressed upon me the significance of daily life among the people of Europe during the early modern period (1450-1800). As Professor Phillips’ teaching assistant for a number of years, I witnessed lectures that animated the historical narrative and inspired students to question their own unique sense of historical continuity and discontinuities. Thank you, Professor Phillips, for such a pedagogical example.

  • Pages 141 to 145 of the Rcumenical Synods of the Orthodox Church By
    Father James Thornton 141 Calendar.... This calendar, in fact, corresponds to the Gregorian Calendar until the year 2800, when a difference of one day will oc- cur in leap years, which, nonetheless, will even out in the year 2900. What an amazing discovery! Thus, it becomes possible to “celebrate the major Christian Feast Days” simultaneously with the hetero- dox; at the same time, tradition-minded Orthodox can be assured that they have not adopted the Papist Calendar.43 The Synod of 1593 is also noteworthy for confirming the -el evation of the See of Moscow to the rank of Patriarchate (which Patriarch Jeremiah had effected in 1589) and for placing it in fifth position of honor after the ancient Patriarchates of Constantino- ple, Alexandria, Antioch, and Jerusalem, respectively. Saint Job of Moscow was the first to serve the Russian Church as Patriarch. The Synod of Iași of 1642 andthe Synod of Jerusalem of 1672 n their methods and goals, the Synod of Iași (Jassy) of 1642 and Ithe Synod of Jerusalem of 1672 were closely related and thus be- long together conceptually. These Synods sought to defend East- ern Orthodoxy vis-à-vis Western Christianity, and, to do so, both adopted the tactic of “fighting fire with fire,” viz., of counteract- ing the doctrinal errors of Roman Catholicism and Protestantism by presenting Orthodoxy in the theological language of the West. Unfortunately, the subtleties, nuances, and paradoxes of Patristic thought cannot be fully captured in the theological language of the West, so that, while recognizing their valuable contribution to the defense of the Faith, Orthodox generally view these Syn- ods with much less enthusiasm than Western Christians do.

  • THE ORTHODOX CHURCHES and the ANGLICAN COMMUNION. by W
    ORTHODOX CHURCHES & ANGLICAN COMMUNION 193 THE ORTHODOX CHURCHES AND THE ANGLICAN COMMUNION. By W. GUY JoHNsoN. TN June, 1935, a Conference to which reference has been made in ~ previous issues of THE CHURCHMAN, was held at Bucarest between a Delegation appointed by the Archbishop of Canterbury and a Commission appointed by the Rumanian Church, in order to discuss points of agreement and of difference between the two Churches with a view to the possibility of arranging for intercommunion. There can be no valid objection to such approaches, and though their practical utility for English Churchpeople may not be very obvious, it is some­ what different for members of the " Orthodox " Churches of which the Rumanian is now the second largest. There are considerable numbers of these scattered throughout England and America in places where they have no access to their own clergy. It would naturally, therefore, be an advantage to those who desire to have the ministrations of clergy of the Anglican Communion, if they might do so with the full approval of their own Church. A converse arrangement would be, of course, contained in such an approval by both sides ; and such inter­ communion between all who profess and call themselves Christians is greatly to be desired. It should, however, be on a basis which does not jeopardize truth ; and it should not be so narrowed as to include only a particular group of unreformed Churches to the exclusion of others but should extend to those Protestant Churches wruch, like the Church of England, derive their distinctive teaching mediately from the Reformation of the sixteenth century and ultimately from Holy Scripture alone.

Bir zamanların yüksek kültürlerine kaynaklık etmiş bu teoloji, 15. yüzyıl­ dan itibaren içine girdiği siyasi konjonktürün etkisi ile gittikçe kapalı bir hüviyete bürünmüştür. Bu kapalılık 20. yüzyılda komünizmin hükmetmiş olduğu alanlardaki Ortodoks düşüncesinde yakın zaman­ lara kadar değişmeyecek şekilde varlığını daha da katılaştırarak sür­ dürmüştür. Tarihte veya bugün Katolik ve Protestanlık gibi önde gelen diğer Hıristiyan mezheplerden farklı Ortodoks teolojisi diyebileceğimiz bir sistem gerçekten var mıdır? Şüphesiz ve de fazlasıyla! Hatta kısmen de olsa Ortodoksluk bütün Hıristiyanlık inançlarının havuzu fonksiyonu­ nu üstlenmiştir.

Міжнародна організація ЮНЕСКО займається проблемами збереження та охорони культурної спадщини. У статті розглянуто важ - ливі програми ЮНЕСКО, спрямовані на збереження важливих об’єктів культурної спадщини, в тому числі українського мистецтва. Автор під - креслює унікальність та цінність українських культурних пам’яток та мистецьких скарбів в контексті збереження європейської парадигми культурної спадщини. Ключові слова: ЮНЕСКО, культурні пам’ятки, охорона об’єктів, спад - щина, збереження. ultivating the intergenerational bond is an important factor Cin social development rooted in timeless values. The issues of cultural heritage are diverse. Tangible heritage such as monumental works of architecture, literary works, and paintings inspire feelings of wonder and admiration. The Venice Charter [1] states that the historic monuments of nations, «imbued with a message from the past», give witness to ages old traditions. For this reason, the protection of cultural heritage should also entail a psychological and emotional bond with the cultural objects and phenomena. Today, in the reality of trans-border cooperation, appropriate documents and projects can be developed on an international scale. The UNESCO is the specialised international agency dedicated to these issues. Aer the Second World War, a special focus was placed on maintaining peace and security because, as it is written 192 The Protection of the Ukrainian Cultural Heritage in UNESCO Programmes in UNESCO’s Constitution [2], «wars begin in the minds of men, it is in the minds of men that the defences of peace must be constructed».

  • Atlas of American Orthodox Christian Churches A
    Atlas cover:Layout 1 4/19/11 11:08 PM Page 1 Atlas of American Orthodox Christian Churches Assembling a mass of recently generated data, the Atlas of American Orthodox Christian Churches provides an authoritative overview of a most important but often neglected segment of the American Christian community. Protestant and Catholic Christians especially will value editor Alexei Krindatchʼs survey of both Eastern Orthodoxy as a whole and its multiple denominational expressions. J. Gordon Melton Distinguished Professor of American Religious History Baylor University, Waco, Texas Why are pictures worth a thousand words? Because they engage multiple senses and ways of knowing that stretch and deepen our understanding. Good pictures also tell compelling stories. Good maps are good pictures, and this makes the Atlas of American Orthodox Christian Churches, with its alternation and synthesis of picture and story, a persuasive way of presenting a rich historical journey of Orthodox Christianity on American soil. The telling is persuasive for both scholars and adherents. It is also provocative and suggestive for the American public as we continue to struggle with two issues, in particular, that have been at the center of the Orthodox experience in the United States: how to create and maintain unity across vast terrains of cultural and ethnic difference; and how to negotiate American culture as a religious other without losing oneʼs soul. David Roozen, Director Hartford Institute for Religion Research Hartford Seminary Orthodox Christianity in America has been both visible and invisible for more than 200 years. Visible to its neighbors, but usually not well understood; invisible, especially among demographers, sociologists, and students of American religious life.

  • Proposal to Encode Additional Cyrillic Characters Used in Early Church Slavonic Printed Books
    Proposal to Encode Additional Cyrillic Characters used in Early Church Slavonic Printed Books Aleksandr Andreev* Yuri Shardt Nikita Simmons PONOMAR PROJECT 1 Introduction Church Slavonic (or Church Slavic, ISO 639-2 code cu) is a highly codified, living, literary lan- guage used by the Slavs. Presently, various recensions of Church Slavonic are used by Slavic Or- thodox Churches, such as the Russian Orthodox Church, and by Slavic Byzantine-Rite Catholic Churches as primary or secondary liturgical languages. Historically, the language was used not only for liturgical texts and religious literature but also for secular academic literature, such as grammars, lexicons, and even astronomical treatises, prior to the codification of literary recen- sions of vernacular Slavic languages. Church Slavonic has been wrien in two scripts – Cyrillic and the earlier Glagolitic. is proposal focuses on Church Slavonic texts printed in the Cyrillic alphabet only. In this document, the authors identify nine Cyrillic characters used in early Church Slavonic printed books published between 1500 and 1700. e characters can be classified as being of three types: characters used in historically important literary texts (such as the Bible printed by Fran- cysk Skaryna, the Ostrog Bible printed by Ivan Fedorov, or the Trebnik compiled by Metropolitan Peter Mogila). ese texts are of immense value to academics studying the history of Slavic lan- guages, the Cyrillic printed tradition, and the Byzantine Rite. e second class constitutes char- acters that are in use in liturgical texts published today by the Russian Old Ritualist community. Old Ritualists rejected the linguistic and liturgical reforms carried out in Russia under Patriarch Nikon and his successors (1653-1700) and continue to use liturgical books that imitate the ear- lier printed tradition.
