Abstract In this paper, topics regarding the glorification of the Kyivan Cave Saints and other Kyivan Saints of the 17th century are discussed, based on the hymnographic complex (complete feast service and paraklesis) to the Kyivan Cave Saints and All Russian Saints composed by Meletios Syrigos, prominent Cretan scholar and official legate of the Ecumenical Patriarch, during his stay in Kyiv in June 1643. The two manuscripts containing the Greek hymnographic text studied – including the autograph manuscript – reference the names of 55 Kyivan Cave Saints as well as 19 other Kyivan Saints, some of whom remain unknown. The Church Slavonic translation carried out directly after the composition of the Greek text was realized in two stages and is analyzed according to two manuscript sources. Only some parts of Meletios’ complex, namely the Paraklesis with the stichera and troparia, were translated into Slavonic. Several decades later (before 1677), the text of this translation was revised without consulting the original Greek text, resulting in the version kept in Church practice today. During the process of this revision, significant changes were made to the text, both regarding the commemorated persons and their presentation. Therefore, the comparative analysis of the Greek text alongside the Church Slavonic texts reveals unknown aspects and stages of the recognition and acceptance of the Kyivan Cave Saints both in Peter Mohyla’s time and later on, as well as the role of Meletios Syrigos in this process.

Two Stages

The article presents the results of a comparative analysis of Roman Catholic (from the portal Deon.pl) and Protestant, Pentecostal (from the magazine “Chrześcijanin” et al.) Christian testimonies. Using the tools of corpus linguistics, the authors show the differences between both collections of texts. Especially interesting was the reconstruction of the „areas of sin”, the evils the testimony authors overcame thanks to God’s help. These are different spheres for both types of texts, in the case of Catholic testimonies it is formed by a semantic complex built around the terms of “love – sex – asceticism”, and Pentecostal testimonies are focused on the “stimulants – addictions – antisocial behaviour” complex. The analysis consisting of two stages (frequency, describing the role of keywords in the corpus, and visual recognition of the most important collocations) allowed us to formulate conclusions on the dominant areas of meaning which define the mental map of the religious life of the followers of both the Christian denominations

The Church

The understanding of the role of the old Greek translation of the Old Testament, the Septuagint, has undergone great changes in the last decennia. From looking upon the Hebrew text as the original and the Greek text as only a translation, it has now been common to view the Greek version as a chapter in a reception history of biblical traditions. By being used by New Testament authors and in the Early Church the Septuagint gained canonical status – alongside the Hebrew Bible. Thus the Old Testament of the Church in reality consists of both versions. The article argues for this also pointing to some of the theological consequences of viewing the connection between the two parts of the Christian Bible from the perspective of reception history.

The aim is to use examples of Leibnizian and Newtonian works to demonstrate the notion that, under certain conditions, the concept of God can function as a methodological tool for constructing an integral worldview. A content analysis of the texts of Leibniz and Newton was conducted to identify the role of God. The comparative analysis allowed the author to reveal similar aspects in these visions. The differences between Leibniz and Newton are profound, but what unites them is the diversity of their interests and their outstanding roles in the discovery of the analysis of infinitesimals. Natural science problems that could not be solved in the 17th century by exclusively scientific methods led to gaps in the complete view of the world. The concept of God not only made it possible to fill in such gaps, but also served as an instrument of research itself.

Addresses the concept of ‘panvasilion’ by the patriarch of Jerusalem Paisius Ligarides and discussions of the idea of Righteous Kingdom in Muscovite Rus’. The transfer of the greatest images of the Holy Land and the relics of the Christian East to Russia in the second half of the 17th century put Moscow on par with the great historical centres of Christianity. Muscovite Rus’ strengthened its position and since then pretended to play the role of a “Righteous Kingdom of End Times”. Church historians acknowledge that translation into Russian of “Tablets” (1656) has become a decisive moment in the maturation of the plan for a “New Jerusalem”. The Greek text of the book was presented to the Russian Patriarch by Paisius Ligarides, who was lately destined to play a major role in condemnation of the former.

This study examines the formation and further evolution of the Church Slavonic and Russian vocabulary describing Christian virtues and sins. Our research was conducted on the available Church Slavonic translations of four Byzantine hymns (the Akathistos Hymn, the Great Canon of Repentance by St. Andrew of Crete, the Alphabetical Stichera from the Great Canon service, and the Great and Holy Friday Antiphons) found in Southern and Eastern Slavonic manuscripts of the 11th‑16th century, as well as Russian editions dating back to the 17th – early 20th century. The textological study revealed five main stages in the evolution of these texts caused by systematic corrections in accordance with the Greek text. Based on these results, the linguistic textological method was applied in order to reveal the main differences between said stages in regard to conveying terms relevant to Christian virtues and sins. We examined a total of 110 Greek words and idiomatic expressions in this thematic field and classified them following the method suggested by E. M. Vereshchagin who focused on ways of terms creation. There were revealed main ways these terms were formed in the target language and the general tendencies in their translation during different stages in the history of Church Slavonic. The results of our research showcased the leading role of transposition in the formation of the terms, the negligible amount of lexical loans, as well as the growing role of calquing in the history of Church Slavonic. We also showed the ways in which the Church Slavonic and Russian languages adopted new linguistic and cultural realities and reinterpreted the system of Greek ethical terms, which helps us understand the mechanisms of intercultural transfer, as well as the linguistic factors that contribute to the identification of Russian culture in the general Orthodox context

The intent of the research is to determine viewpoints for the comparative analysis of the Hungarian Hajduks and the Ukrainian Cossacks. During the period spanning from the end of the 15th century up to the 1570’s, Cossacks, similarly to Hajduks, began to take shape as a new social phenomenon, yet legally they still did not exist. Registered Cossacks and royal Hajduks as such were legally recognised, thus they gained a distinguished position in contemporary society despite the fact that hard as they tried, the title of nobility was yet unavailable to them. After comparing the position of Ukrainian Cossacks and Hungarian Hajduks in society, it can be stated that they constituted an “intermediate” social category between nobility and villeins, and they became a mass phenomenon in society only at the end of the 16th century.

Relevance. Grain is the key to strategic products to ensure food security. From this point of view, the creation of large grain farms is a matter for the country's selfsufficiency and it leading to a decrease in financial expense for import. Creation of such farms creates an abundance of productivity from the area and leads to obtaining increased reproductive seeds. The main policy of the government is to minimize dependency from import, create abundance of food and create favorable conditions for export potential.The purpose of the study: the development of grain production in order to ensure food security of the country and strengthen government support for this industry.Methods: comparative analysis, systems approach.Results. As shown in the research, if we pay attention to the activities of private entrepreneurship in the country, we can see result of the implementation of agrarian reforms after which various types of farms have been created in republic.The role of privateentrepreneurshipinthedevelopmentofproduction is great. Тhe article outlines the sowing area, production, productivity, import, export of grain and the level of selfsufficiency in this country from 2015 till 2017.
