"Christus vincit". The Memory of the Baptism of Russia in the Metropolitan Hilarion Preaching
The article is devoted to theological analysis of the panegyrics of Prince Vladimir from the “Word on Law and Grace” by Metropolitan Hilarion of Kiev. The focus was on the literary and theological composition of the work. The author also highlights the God- word accents highlighted in the text “Word on Law and Grace”. Particular attention is paid to the place of the famous anthem “Christus vincit”, discovered in the text of the “Word on Law and Grace” by L. Muller. An attempt is being made to find Eastern Christian analogues of this acclamation. The author concludes that, in glorifying the Risen Christ, Metropolitan Hilarion was able to combine the words of the Eastern Liturgy with Western acclamation
