	Church Slavonic language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Historically, this language is derived from the Old Church Slavonic language by adapting pronunciation and orthography and replacing some old and obscure words and expressions by their vernacular counterparts (for example from the Old Russian language).
		Although as late as the 1760's Lomonosov argued that Church Slavonic was the so-called "high style" of Russian, within Russia itself this point of view largely vanished in the course of the nineteenth century.
		Church Slavonic (in various modifications) was also used as a liturgical and literary language in other Orthodox countries — Belarus, Ukraine, Romania, Serbia, Bulgaria and (former Yugoslav) Republic of Macedonia — until it was replaced by national languages (but the liturgical use may continue).

	Old Church Slavonic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Church Slavonic maintained a prestige status, particularly in Russia, for many centuries — among Slavs in the East it had a status analogous to that of the Latin language in western Europe, but had the advantage of being substantially less divergent from the vernacular tongues of average parishioners.
		Old Church Slavonic is evidenced by a relatively small body of manuscripts, written for the most part, in the late 10th and the early 11th century.
		The history of Old Church Slavonic writing includes a northern tradition begun by the mission to Great Moravia, including a short mission in the Balaton principality, and a Bulgarian tradition begun by some of the missionaries who relocated to Bulgaria after the expulsion from Great Moravia.

	Vernacularity: The Politics of Language and Style
		Cyril and Methodius in the late ninth century, Church Slavonic (known in its earliest form as Old Church Slavonic) functioned as the language of ecclesiastical and literary culture for most of the Eastern Orthodox and Greek Catholic peoples of East Central Europe, functioning much as did Latin in the medieval West.
		As the language of the Eastern liturgy, of the Bible, and of long disappeared medieval kingdoms, Church Slavonic was seen as a natural marker of confessional loyalty and a sign of the historic greatness of Serbian, Romanian, and Ruthenian culture.
		As nationalist intellectuals gradually came to dominate the cultural and political establishment of East Central Europe during the later half of the nineteenth century, the status of Church Slavonic was thus steadily eroded and the ideals of religious universalism gave way before those of national particularism and political egalitarianism.

		Like the Western Church, the liturgical practices of the Eastern Orthodox Church were founded on the practices of the mother Church in Jerusalem.
		Among the most striking things about the liturgical worship of the Eastern Orthodox Church is the uniformity of its form, and the high degree of correspondence to the form that was in practice across the Christian Church in the sixth century.
		Generally speaking, the worship of the Orthodox Church has always been in the vernacular: that is, the local or indigenous language.

	Russian Znamenny Chant, Znammeny Chant, Znameny Chant
		Eastern Orthodoxy was directly imported into Russia with all of its cultural appendages; the architecture for churches, the painting style for icons, and the music of the church were all included.
		Russian Church music--the Znamenny Chant--was in the long past derived from Byzantium, but was no sooner on Russian soil that it encountered an entirely new medium--the musical perception of the Russian people, its whole culture and custom, and thus began its second Russian life.
		Since the whole purpose of having the chant in church was to convey the holy liturgy in a beautiful and worshipful manner, it would not behoove a composer to treat the text lightly and conform it to a pleasing melody (as was the practice at this time in folk-songs).
