Religion and Literature: Aspects of Correlation (according to Russian Literature of the XIX Century)

Julia Balakshina, PhD in Philology
pp. 56–80
The article is dedicated to problems of correlation between two basic spheres of human experience – those of religion and culture. Among numerous religious practices depicted to a various extent in the XIX century Russian literature, Christianity and, in particular, Orthodoxy, hold a special place. The author describes both various “mechanisms” of Orthodox influence over Russian culture and reasons of the contradictions that separated representatives of the Orthodox Church from the Russian educated stratum in the XIX century. The article describes four “models” of correlation between Russian literature and Christian tradition, developed during the XIX century: religious, mediatory, realistic and artistic.
Keywords: religion, Christianity, Orthodox Church, literature, dialogue, symbol, image, Russian novel.
