Dnieper River Saints [EPUB ebook] 

Support

Dnieper River Saints explores the Dnieper River’s crucial role in shaping the Eastern Orthodox Christian identity of the East Slavic people. The book argues that the river was more than just a geographical feature; it was a sacred symbol central to the conversion of Kyivan Rus’ and the development of their unique religious landscape. Intriguingly, the Dnieper facilitated not only the physical act of baptism but also the profound spiritual transformation of a culture.

The book unfolds in three parts, beginning with pre-Christian Slavic beliefs to provide context. It then examines the pivotal Baptism of Rus’ in 988 AD, analyzing its historical accounts and societal impact. Finally, the book delves into the continued veneration of the Dnieper and associated saints, highlighting how the river became interwoven with spiritual narratives.

Drawing from primary chronicles and archaeological findings, the book offers a comprehensive analysis of the interplay between environment and religion, demonstrating how natural landscapes can shape spiritual identities within Eastern Orthodox Christianity.
