Abstract

The article describes the history of the publication of such collections of paraliturgicals as Grodno “Molitvoslov” of 1906 and 1917 and “Grodno Сollection of pious hymns” of 1910-1911. These publications were well known among the Orthodox of the 20^th century. Their compiler was Archpriest John Korchinskiy, who did much to popularize one of the remarkable spiritual writers of the past – Chrysanth Sakovich.
