Description

Following the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Russian Orthodox Church embarked on an unprecedented canonization campaign, transforming the landscape of Russian Christian memory. Whereas the first millennium of Russian Christianity (988-1988) saw the Church recognise merely 300 Russian saints, this number had grown to more than 2,000 by 2006. This Routledge study explores this remarkable phenomenon of new Russian martyrdom, tracing the canonization process and examining how saints are venerated within Orthodox tradition. The book investigates the complex relationship between religious memory and state power, revealing how the Russian people and government have chosen to remember the Soviet Union and commemorate victims of its purges. It provides essential insight into the intersection of faith, history, and collective memory in post-Soviet Russia, offering scholars and readers alike a comprehensive understanding of how religious institutions reshape national identity through the veneration of the martyred.

Key Features

Routledge Religion, Society and Government series addresses the interplay between Orthodox Christianity and Eastern European state structures across multiple historical periods.

The book examines the canonical process by which over 1,700 new Russian saints were recognised between 1988 and 2006, documenting unprecedented ecclesiastical activity.

Explores how veneration of Soviet-era martyrs serves as a mechanism for processing collective trauma and reconstructing post-Soviet Russian identity.

Analyses the role of the Russian Orthodox Church in memorial practices and the commemoration of purge victims, bridging religious and political discourse.
