- Аннотация: The Ancient Rus was a very religious country with high unified cultural tradition subordinated to the principles of Orthodoxy, with not too abundant and almost entirely spiritual literature. Despite the diversity of practice, which does not always correspond to theory, the ethical theory in Ancient Rus was to a large extent uniformed and quite simple. The non-Orthodox people could be treated as guests, when they came to work or trade, as enemies, when they were at war with Russians, and as tributaries, when their lands became part of the Russian state. The Church’s ethics taught that one should treat others as oneself and not discriminate between a brother and an alien. At the same time, there was a theory of just war and the military duty of a Christian. Besides, the Orthodox people should not be mingled with other world. They clearly marked the boundary between themselves and others, persuading to get in through baptism. The Church and the tsar did not approve enforcement and intimidation in matters of faith, although sometimes the administration officials used these methods.
