09 — Legacy and Reception
The afterlife of St. Dimitri and his work: the centuries-long use of his Lives of the Saints across the Russian Church and its English translation; his feast days; and the modern scholarship — hagiographic, historical, and theological — that continues to study his great compilation and his contested place in Russian church history.
This section closes the collection with reception and legacy. The first file treats the enduring life of the Cheti-Minei and its English edition; the second the feast days and the modern scholarship.
