John Zlatoust is the reproduction of the publication of the St. Petersburg Spiritual Academy, implemented in 1898 in the preface to the full meeting of SVT creations. John Zlatoust 1898 His compilers give the following short essay of the history of this publication: "... although the creations of St. I.Zlatoust was published by the favorite reading of our ancestors, but they have never appeared in our more or less systematic or full meeting. It was commonly translated, published and reprinted separate creations or even separate places of them. A more complete comparatively meeting of the creations of St. Father (it was precisely conversations for the messages of St. Axt. Paul, as the favorite subject of the interpretation of the Velikago Saint) in the Church-Slavic language was made in the XVII century under the Kiev Lavra, which is reproduced in the printing house of St. Synod in 1894. As for the fate of the creations of a Velikago Father in Russian, in this regard, it is impossible not to see three clearly designated stages. Already with Samago foundation at the St. Petersburg Spiritual Academy of Eldersago, the Spiritual Magazine "Christianskago reading" (in 1821) of the creation of St. I.Zlatoust were the main source for the content of the books of this magazine, the most names of the suggestion of the most advantageous objects of the findings, which were borrowed in parts of the creations of this Velikago Father, which was translated only separately, especially the place of place from them, and only especially outreach and important creations , in the kind of words about the priesthood ", was as a whole. So it continued until 1847, when inhabit the intensity of the request for spiritual food, such a way of translation and publication of the creations of Zlatoust was insufficient, as a result of which the idea arose in the St. Petersburg Theological Academy to proceed to the translation and publication not separate only places, and . This thought that has found the full approval of St. Synod, was vigorously implemented by the Academy Corporation, and during the next twenty years of the magazine"s books constantly decorated with the creations of St. Zlatoust, who, at the same time, were published separately. This continued until 1866, who ended with this translation and publishing activities of the Academy, partly because most of the creations were already translated, and even more than the coming in society New Yellow Masswords distracted They should have leaving the development of the positive truths of the Orthodox-Christian teaching, to act as the defenders of these truths against the beginning of beginning against them the nursery and denial. On such a combat position, theological science was for almost entirely thirty years and only now again in society began to declare a need for a more positive spiritual food, the satisfaction of which lies again on the duties of higher spiritual schools. Towards this particular needs and goes St. Petersburg. The Spiritual Academy, speaking with the full meeting of the creations of St. John Zlatousta ", what is the publication presents the third stage in the fate of these creations in Russian".
