Короткий опис(реферат):
This article attempts to reveal intercultural connections at the Kyiv Theological
Academy at the beginning of the 20th century by reconstructing the spiritual
biographies of two theological academy professors: Archimandrite (later, Archbishop
of Berlin and Germany) Tykhon (Tymofii Liashchenko) and Petro Kudriavtsev. The
article demonstrates how different cultural traditions intersected and combined in
the spiritual experience of these figures. The author of the article argues that, as a
result of revolutionary events in 1917-1919, both Kyiv Theological Academy professors
experienced transformations in personal cultural identity, and their spiritual
biographies reveal a transition from Russian to Western European and a combination
of both (Tykhon (Liashchenko) identities), and from Russian to Ukrainian ideological
cultural orientation (Petro Kudriavtsev).
