Abstract

At the present stage, there is a corpus of liturgical texts in Russian, translated from Greek or Church Slavonic. Their hermeneutical analysis from the point of view of theology and philology allows, on the one hand, to identify the original meaning of the text, and on the other, to consider its translation transformations. This article, based on The Anaphora of St. Basil the Great, analyzes the teaching of the Holy Spirit of St. Basil the Great, as well as the correspondence of the Russian text of this Eucharistic prayer to the Greek original and its Church Slavonic version.
