Modern scriptural translation generated major religious and cultural conflict within the Russian Orthodox church. The resulting divisions left church authority particularly vulnerable to political pressures exerted upon it in the twentieth century. Russian Bible Wars illuminates the fundamental issues of authority that have divided modern Russian religious culture. Set within the theoretical debate over secularization, the volume clarifies why the Russian Bible was issued relatively late and amidst great controversy. Stephen Batalden's study traces the development of biblical translation into Russian and of the 'Bible wars' that then occurred in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries in Russia. The annotated bibliography of the Russian Bible identifies the different editions and their publication history. 517 3 $aModern scriptural translation and cultural authority 606 $aRussian language 607 $aRussia$xChurch history$y1801-1917 607 $aRussia$xChurch history$y20th century 607 $aSoviet Union$xChurch history 615 0$aRussian language. 676 $a220.5/9171 686 $aLIT004130$2bisacsh 700 $aBatalden$b Stephen K.$01008820 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996248272803316 996 $aRussian Bible wars$92327707 997 $aUNISA
