В настоящем выпуске журнала «Праксис» публикуется тематический план занятий дисциплины Литургика, предназначенный для программы бакалавриата Московской духовной академии, а также отзывы на эти материалы. Задача «объяснения обрядов» (по выражению профессора МДА А. П. Голубцова) традиционно является неотъемлемой частью изучения богослужения в духовных школах Русской Православной Церкви, однако следует признать, что одна из проблем этого изучения в настоящее время состоит в использовании устаревших методик преподавания и в отсутствии последовательного изложения материала, вследствие чего процесс обучения в основном сводится к бессистемному запоминанию сведений о совершении богослужения, содержащихся в Типиконе и в богослужебных книгах. Во втором семестре 2019/2020 учебного года рабочая группа кафедры церковно-практических дисциплин Московской духовной академии, состоящая из преподавателей литургики под руководством профессора А. М. Пентковского, провела работу по корректировке и уточнению содержания учебных программ и тематического плана для трех лет обучения на программе бакалавриата. This issue of Praxis publishes a thematic plan of classes in the Liturgical disci pline, designed for the undergraduate program of the Moscow Theological Academy, as well as reviews of these materials. The task of "explaining the rites" (as expressed by MTA professor A.P. Golubtsov) traditionally, it is an integral part of the study of worship in the theological schools of the Russian Orthodox Church, but it should be recognized that one of the problems of this study at present is the use of outdated teaching methods and the lack of consistent presentation of ma terial, as a result of which the learning process is mainly reduced to unsystematic memorization of information about the performance of worship contained in the Typicon and in liturgical books. In the second semester of the 2019/2020 academic year, the working group of the Department of Church Practical Disciplines of the Moscow Theological Academy, consisting of liturgical teachers led by Professor A. M. Pentkovsky, carried out work on adjusting and refining the content of the cur ricula and the thematic plan for three years of study at the undergraduate program.

Martyrdom and enslavement of the Russian Orthodox Church (1917-1970) The Russian Orthodox Church was deprived of a patriarch by the tsar Peter I the Great in 1721 and since then had been ruled by every next monarch. The position of a patriarch was restored in 1917, when the Synod chose Tikhon Biellavin (died in 1925), by secret voting. When the Russian Provisional Government was overthrown by bolsheviks, the new government started to subordinate the Orthodox Church. There were many attempts of destroying the Orthodox Church by pro-government religious groups, deceptional taking over the Orthodox administration, accusing the Patriarch Tikhon, and executing people defending churches during sacral pretiosas depriving action. The Orthodox Church’s independence was cut short in 1927 after the so-called Declaration of Metropolitan Sergei Stragorodski was published. Since then, his opponents had been persecuted, and his supporters had got promoted. The process of the Russian Orthodox Church enslavement ended when the Council of the Russian Orthodox Church Affairs with the security service officer Karpow as a director was established. The Council had its impact on the election of patriarchs Stragorodski and Simansky and bishops nominations. Orthodox churches, theological schools, monasteries, were liquidated massively, the 169 Męczeństwo i zniewolenie Rosyjskiej Cerkwi Prawosławnej w latach 1917-1970 number of dioceses was reduced, as well. On the Karpov’s and the government order, there was an unsuccessful attempt of establishing the Orthodox Vatican in Moscow. Patriarchs Stragorodsky and Simansky ruled according to governmental demands, not faithful people’s needs. Od 1721 roku z woli cara Piotra Wielkiego Rosyjska Cerkiew Prawosławna została pozbawiona patriarchy i na jej czele stawał każdorazowy monarcha. Urząd ten został przywrócony dopiero w 1917 roku, kiedy Synod w tajnym głosowaniu doprowadził do wyboru metropolity T. Biełławina (†1925). Po obaleniu Rządu Tymczasowego przez bolszewików nowe władze podjęły starania o podporządkowanie sobie Cerkwi. W ramach tej inicjatywy podejmowano próby rozbicia Cerkwi przez prorządowe ugrupowania religijne (np. Żywa Cerkiew W. Wwiedienskiego, Ruch georgiewski G. Jackowskiego), podstępne przejęcie administracji cerkiewnej, przygotowania do postawienia przed sądem patriarchy Tichona, wykonanie wyroków śmierci na osobach broniących cerkwi podczas akcji odbierania cerkwiom sakralnych precjozów. Niezależność Cerkwi została złamana w 1927 roku po publikacji tzw. Deklaracji metropolity S. Stragorodz168 kiego. Jego oponenci odtąd byli prześladowani (P. Polańskij, C. Smirnow, J. Petrowych), a lojalni duchowni awansowani. Powołanie tzw. Rady ds. Rosyjskiej Cerkwi Prawosławnej na czele z oficerem władz bezpieczeństwa G. Karpowem zakończyło proces zniewalania Cerkwi. Rada ta manipulowała wyborem patriarchy Stragorodzkiego i A. Szymańskiego oraz nominacjami biskupów. Masowo likwidowano cerkwie, szkolnictwo teologiczne, klasztory, redukowano liczbę diecezji. Na polecenie władz z udziałem Karpowa podjęto nieudaną próbę utworzenia w Moskwie Prawosławnego Watykanu. Zarówno Stragorodzki, jak i Szymański kierowali się głównie żądaniami władz politycznych a nie oczekiwaniami wiernych.

Last year, the anniversary of all Christianity, witnessed a number of significant events caused by a new interest in understanding the problem of the unity of the Christian Church on the turn of the millennium. Due to the confidentiality of Ukraine, some of these events have or will have an immediate impact on Christianity in Ukraine and on the whole Ukrainian society as a whole. Undoubtedly, the main event, or more enlightened in the press, is a new impetus to the unification of the UOC-KP and the UAOC. But we would like to focus on two documents relating to the problem of Christian unity, the emergence of which was almost unnoticed by the wider public. But at the same time, these documents are too important as they outline the future policy of other Christian denominations by two influential Ukrainian christian churches - the Russian Orthodox Church and the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church. These are the "Basic Principles of the attitude of the Russian Orthodox Church to the" I ", adopted by the Anniversary Bishops' Council of the Russian Orthodox Church, and the Concept of the Ecumenical Position of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church, adopted by the Synod of the Bishops of the UGCC. It is clear that the theme of the second document is wider, but at the same time, ecumenism, unification is impossible without solving the problem of relations with others, which makes it possible to compare the approaches laid down in the mentioned documents to the building of relations with other Christian confessions.

The early modern Russian government and Russian Orthodox Church identified as one of their main duties the ransoming of Russian Christians from Muslim Tatar captors. The process of ransoming could be an involved one with negotiations being carried on by different agents and by the potential ransomees themselves. Different amounts of ransom were paid on a sliding scale depending upon the ransomee’s social status, gender, and age. One of our main sources for the justification of this practice was the Stoglav (100 Chapters) Church Council in 1551, which discussed the issue of ransom in some detail. The Law Code (Ulozhenie) of 1649 specifies the conditions and amounts to be paid to redeem captives. Church writers justified the ransoming of Christian captives of the Muslim Tatars by citing Scripture, and they also specified that the government should pay the ransom out of its own treasury.
