Description

Explore the profound transformation of the Russian Orthodox Church following the collapse of the Soviet Union. In this scholarly work, the author examines the rapid rise in canonized saints, noting that the number grew from 300 in the first millennium to over 2,000 by 2006. This book provides a detailed look at the phenomenon of new Russian martyrdom and the processes behind it. Readers will gain insight into how saints are venerated and how these religious developments connect to the broader social landscape. The text relates the act of canonization to the ways the Russian state and its citizens choose to remember the Soviet era. It offers a deep look at how victims of historical purges are commemorated in modern memory. This volume is an essential resource for those studying religion, society, and government in Eastern Europe and the former Soviet states.
