Abstract
The article is devoted to intra-church discourse between two representatives of the Russian Enlightenment philosophy - Dimitrie Cantemir and Feofan Prokopovich. Connection between the Russian thinkers’ ideological sympathies and antipathies and their conclusions regarding the canons of dogma is studied. In addition, the paper also shows how a more global context - ideological and political struggle for spiritual domination in the country that was renewed by Peter the Great - appears through the dispute between the two authors. The conceptual series and methodical techniques of controversy, characteristic of Peter the Great’s era in the Russian history, are presented.
