Holy Fathers, Secular Sons
ISBN: 9780875806655 / Angielski / Miękka / 302 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "Holy Fathers, Secular Sons" is the first study of the Orthodox clergy s contribution to Russian society. Prior to the 1860s, clergymen s sons were not allowed to leave the castelike clergy in large numbers. When permission was granted, they responded by entering free professions and political movements in droves. Challenging the standard view of educated pre-revolutionary Russians as largely westernized, secular, and patricidal, Laurie Manchester demonstrates that the clergymen s sons did retain their fathers values. This was true even of the minority who became atheists. Drawing on the... "Holy Fathers, Secular Sons" is the first study of the Orthodox clergy s contribution to Russian society.
