С. 68–99.

e article examines the church innovations of Andrei Bogolyubsky, which represent
a long process that took two decades and had its own internal development.
At an early stage ( — early s), the prince was following important local
models: Rostov and Suzdal, but already it was also Kiev, and in the first half of
the s it developed into direct rivalry with the ancient capital of Rus’. But at
this stage, Andrei had an even higher model, Constantinople, which determined
the nature of the innovations of the prince in the mid — second half of the s.
e first clear manifestation of this trend coincides with the expulsion of Andrei’s
opponent Leon of Rostov and the appearance of the Greek eodore, the uncanonical
“bishop” of Vladimir. In , for the first time, Constantinople’s reaction
to Andrew’s innovations appears, a positive one. Perhaps it was aer this that
Andrei moved from the idea of “legalizing” the bishopric of Vladimir immediately
to the project of turning it into a Metropolitan see, which, however, stumbled
upon a decisive refusal of Constantinople in . Andrey’s innovations, especially
in their “Constantinopolitan” aspect, had to be inspired by some expert on the
realities of the Byzantine capital, so the prince had to have a Greek adviser. In
view of the permanent conflict of the prince and the townspeople with the Greek
Leon of Rostov, the only contender for the role of such an adviser is eodore,
the nephew of the Greek Manuel of Smolensk.
