	Robert Collis: Alchemical Interest at the Petrine Court
		Indeed, Prokopovich is commonly recognised as the chief ideologist of Petrine absolutism, epitomised in Pravda Voli Monarshei (1722) and reflected in numerous panegyrics devoted to the majesty of the Emperor between victory at Poltava in 1709 and his funeral in 1725.
		Prokopovich also states that true inspiration of reason is received from the consciousness of the divine harmony of nature, which seems redolent of a belief in the analogy of macrocosm and microcosm.
		Prokopovich’s hoarding of a significant alchemical collection in his library was a bold and risky move that certainly relied on the tolerant protection offered by the patronage of the Tsar himself.

		From henceforth it was Feofan's duty and pleasure to explain the new ideas and justify the most alarming innovations from the pulpit.
		So invaluable, indeed, did he become to the civil power, that, despite the determined opposition of the Russian clergy, who regarded the "Light of Kiev" as an interloper and semi-heretic, he was rapidly promoted, becoming, in 1718, bishop of Pskov, and finally, in 1724, archbishop of Novgorod.
		As the author of the spiritual regulation for the reform of the Russian Orthodox Church, Feofan must, indeed, be regarded as the creator of the spiritual department superseding the patriarchate, and better known by its later name of the Holy Synod, of which he was made the vice-president.

		Prokopovich's influence was very widespread and left a distinct mark on the Church and spiritual life of Russia, from the moment when Peter the Great (1672-1725) took him on as a close collaborator, after promoting him to the archbishopric of Novgorod, and let him fundamentally shape his religious reform.
		And under the influence of Feofan Prokopovich, many areas of Russian church and spiritual life were shaped precisely in accordance with the spirit and the criteria of Protestant pietism.

		What would you have to say in response to a queston on the topic "contributions to the development of a system of versification: Polotsky, Trediakovsky, Lomonosov."

Is the dispute between them one of versification or literary language, or one of style?
