Abstract

It is appropriate to speak of a “Mother of God Marian / Theotokan Renaissance” in 15th and 16thс 15th- and 16th- century Italy and Russia. (G. Cracco first made use of this concept in the Italian context –“Rinascimento Mariano” ). The veneration of Mary emerged in Italy in numerous sanctuaries in locations where her person or image (in the form of icons or statuary) miraculously appeared miraculously. At the same time, Russia saw numerous miraculous appearances of icons of the Mother of God, and of miracles associated with these icons, the establishment of national cults of these miraculous icons, and the formation of a system of church feasts in honor of icons of the Mother of God. In both Italy and Russia, the Mother of God was seen as the (a?) principal le power in salvation history and therefore in the historical process. Russian sources of the Time of Troubles emphasize the key role of certain types of Mother of God icons in the country’s ies’ response to (and recovery from) national crisis. The Loreto sanctuary, at the end of the 1520s played a similar role in the material and moral salvation of the papacy. In the same way as ey the Vladimir icon of the Mother of God, the Loreto Madonna contributed to the defense of Christians from the Muslim threat. This article will examine the sermon of Bernadine of Sienna on the Birth of the Mother of God and certain liturgical images of the Immaculate Conception on the one hand, and on the other hand, the sermon on the feast of the Triumph of Orthodoxy (the Tale of the Roman Icon), certain chronicle accounts and tales about icons and liturgical texts. The manner of glorification of the Virgin Mary in Italy and of icons of the Mother of God in Russia both show a common tendency to use Christological motifs. In the Russian veneration of these icons, the thematics and images of the feast of the Presentation of Christ in the Temple of February 2 play an important role, as do . I images of Wisdom and especially of the Sun trans traversing the Universe have special significance.
