The novel “Avvakum” by the famous Russian writer Vladislav Bakhrevsky tells of one of the iconic figures of Russian history of the mid -17th century. Protopop Avvakum is a talented speaker and polemicist, a zealot of “fatherly faith” and an ardent opponent of the Nikon’s church reforms, who is alien to all sorts of intrigues and directly defends his beliefs, but in Moscow, in the royal court, their own orders are not for beliefs, but for power for power. . If the sermons and calls of Avvakum are consonant with the secret intentions of those in power, he can receive support, and if not, the path of the martyr is prepared for the truth and lover. The novel Avvakum is not only a novel about one person, but also a panoramic picture of Russian life, detailed and bright. Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich is shown here with his entire environment, and his sovereign affairs, including war with Sweden and Poland, as well as relations with Patriarch Nikon. It is no coincidence that in 2011 it was this novel that formed the basis of the series “The split”
