Items related to Cyril and Methodius of Thessalonica: The Acculturation...
At the height of the tumultuous developments taking place in Central and Eastern Europe in the ninth century, two Greek missionaries from Thessalonica came to the fore. Their work of acculturation among the Slavs had far-reaching and lasting changes upon European life. This book looks back over the life and work of these two outstanding figures and analyzes their ecclesiastical and cultural mission. Their presence in the Crimea was closely bound up with several aspects of Byzantium's ecclesiastical policy and programs of acculturation, and also with the Russians' first encounter with Christianity. In presenting the Slavs with an alphabet and the written word, the brothers transmitted to them the world, and this it was in Cyril and Methodius' time, and thanks to their work, that Great Moravia reached the height of its vigor and prosperity as a central European state. The Cyrillo-Methodian tradition lived on, spreading among the Slavic peoples and laying the foundation of their spiritual life.

Book Description Paper Back. Condition: New. Two simultaneous developments in the late ninth century - the end of the iconoclast controversy within Byzantium and the organization of marauding Slavic tribes into recognizable states - set the stage for one of the greatest missionary efforts in the history of Christianity. Two young Byzantines from Thessaloniki transmitted to the Slavic peoples not only an alphabet that would enable them to hear the gospel, but also the spirituality and essential cultural heritage of their Greek empire, reshaping and transforming for all time the identity of Eastern Europe and Russia. This book, by a Slavic ecclesiastical expert from Thessaloniki, offers us an accessible look at the remarkable achievements of two saints revered in both East and West. Seller Inventory # 47678
