Produktbeschreibung
"Human life is primarily the life of the spirit, and only in the spiritual realm can individual people and entire nations be connected by a truly strong bond," wrote the Orthodox Saint Nicholas of Japan. The Orthodox missions, founded in Japan and Korea in the second half - the end of the 19th century, became the bridge that, despite all the difficulties, was able to connect two completely dissimilar worlds, two different cultural traditions. Undoubtedly, the activities of Russian spiritual missions in Japan and Korea, countries with a completely different worldview and their own ancient religious systems, Buddhism and Shintoism, is a phenomenon worthy of surprise. How did Orthodoxy take its place in this world? What problems and obstacles stood in his way? How did the East receive Orthodox preachers, and how did they appear in the eyes of the Russian missionaries themselves? This edition is devoted to these questions. The book will be of interest both to specialists, historians and orientalists, and to everyone interested in the history of the Russian Orthodox Church, Orthodox culture, as well as the history and culture of the East.
