Based on a corpus coming from the Turfan oasis (in present-day Xinjiang, People’s Republic of China) and consisting of Christian Middle Iranian literature in several languages (Middle Persian, Syriac and Sogdian) and scripts (East Syriac, Pahlavi and secular Sogdian), the present paper is aimed at identifying and outlining the translation techniques for the transmission of religious knowledge, based on a literary tradition as well as on a manuscript tradition, from one context to another. The religious knowledge is that which belongs to the “Church of the East” and which is written in its official liturgical language, i.e. Syriac in East Syriac script. The general context is that of the missionary activities of the “Church of the East” along the Silk road between late Antiquity and early Middle Age. The particular context is that of the converted Iranian communities.

Holy Week, inseparable from the mystery of Christ’s Resurrection, is the center of the liturgical year. Each of the following days has its own specific meaning and extensive hymnographic material. The graphic representation is also connected with the content of liturgical rites. This article discusses the meaning of iconographic representations that are dynamically present at services – by carrying them from the presbitery to the middle of the church or carrying them around the temple in a procession (the icon of Christ the Bridegroom on Holy Monday, the icon of Christ crucified on Good Friday, the Epitaphios with a representation of Christ lying in the tomb on Good Friday and Holy Saturday). The text also discusses the relationship between the aforementioned icons and liturgical texts sung during the services.

W drugiej połowie XVII wieku w prawosławiu kijowsko-moskiewskim, po reformie patriarchy Moskwy Nikona (1652-1658), wyodrębniła się grupa wyznaniowa starowierców zwanych też staroobrzędowcami. Nieliczna i mało znana wspólnota odszczepieńców z powodu prześladowań uciekała za Ural i za ocean, ale również na tereny dawnej Rzeczypospolitej Obojga Narodów (1569-1772/1795), gdzie panowała tolerancja religijna. Starowiercy z terenów pskowskiego i nowogrodzkiego osiedlili się w regionie dzisiejszego Augustowa, Suwałk i Sejn. Artykuł poświęcony jest historii powstania XVII-wiecznego rozłamu lub schizmy w prawosławiu, etapom przesiedlenia starowierców na ziemie białoruskie oraz próbom adaptacji staroobrzędowców do nowych realiów kulturowo-religijnych.

In the second half of the 17th century in the Kiev-Moscow Orthodoxy, after the reform of the Patriarch of Moscow Nikon (1652-1658), a religious group called Old Believers or Old Ritualists emerged. Because of persecution the small and little-known community of dissenters fled across the Urals and the ocean, but also to the territories of the former Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth (1569-1772 / 1795), where religious tolerance prevailed. Old Believers from the areas of Pskov and Novgorod settled in the region of today’s Augustów, Suwałki and Sejny. The article is devoted to the history of the emergence of the seventeenth-century split or schism in Orthodoxy, the stages of resettlement of Old Believers to the Belarusian lands and attempts to adapt Old Believers to new cultural and religious realities.

The present paper discusses the presentation of holy children-martyrs in the Orthodox hymnography. Eight leading themes that appear in liturgical texts are presented. Four of them are common to the motifs used in the rite of a child’s funeral, and four others are reserved only for canonized children. The most attention was paid to the issue of childhood innocence and parents’ reaction to premature death (from sadness, through joy of the child’s salvation, to encouraging a child to suffer martyrdom for Christ). The presented examples come from the texts of services and Akathists in honor of selected holy children – mainly St. Gabriel of Zabłudów, St. Cyric and Julitta, St. Artemius of Verkola.
