The era of Moscow Russia (in sources, this state education is more often called a Russian state) has caused a significant polemic tradition to life. The fate of the kingdom and the nature of the power of the Russian sovereign were in the focus of the attention of medieval authors. Mostly in the polemic and in large -scale final literary events of the XVI century. Representatives of the clergy took part. However, the voices of the laity also joined this choir. The most significant figures of the Russian polemic tradition were Ivan Perevetov, Ivan the Terrible and Andrei Kurbsky, if the biographies and work of Grozny and Kurbsky are well known and are documented, then Peresvetov’s personality and worldview remains a mystery to a large extent. And is it possible to consider it a polemist? Peresvetov was the creator of one of the most significant social utopias in pre -Petrine Russia. Nevertheless, the opinion of those with whom the servant of the middle of the 16th century is incorporated into his texts. It leads a continuous controversy. In a dispute with these voices, the original concept of the Orthodox kingdom is born under the pen of Peresvetov. The study proposes to take a look at the polemic texts of medieval Russia from the point of view of three semantic levels: 1) the time that caused the analyzed monuments, 2) the traditions that these texts developed and rethought, 3) a large story, or a large chronology, on the scale of which they occupy your exceptional place.
