The role of Cyril and Methodius tradition in the formation of features of Kiev Christianity

Abstract

In the context of the development of Kyivan Christianity, the spiritual tradition of East and West was the adoption of the Cyril and Methodius heritage. By that time, the Slavic alphabet had already been created, and some liturgical and legal texts, including the Gospel, the Apostle, the Psalter, the Prayer, the Judgment of the People, and others, had been translated into the Slavic language. The activity of Cyril and Methodius was of general Slavic importance.
