Христиане или латинники: религиозный аспект восприятия поляков русскими книжниками XI–XIII вв.

С. 169–181.

Great Schism of 1054 was primary a local event of a moderate impact on multi-levelled ties within the world of European Christianity. After some time the bias against “Latins” had nevertheless outweighted the reasons of real politics and practices of everyday communication. Some argue that the change in the perception of the West was caused by the reorientation of the Western religious policy after the IV Crusade. The study of the perception of the Poles and their religion by Rusian bookmen shows however that the dynamics of interconfessional relationship in the Eastern Europe was more complicated. The sources give us examples of the dislike against “Latin” neighbours in the 12th century and the religious tolerance in the 13th century as well. It is true that the perception of neighbours was largely determined by the politics, but what we need is a more differentiated approach based on a more detailed view of relationship between two peoples.
