Abstract

The article deals with the problems of the transformation of the relationship between the state authority and the Russian Orthodox Church during the reign of Aleksey Mikhailovich. The authors point out the systematic attempts of the state to intervene in internal church issues. The work is mainly devoted to the consideration of the causes, course and consequences of the Solovetsky Monastery uprising, to the heterogeneity of its driving forces and the variety of the motives that caused the resistance of the monastery to the armed forces of the country. The analysis of the synthesis of religious and national liberation motives in the supposedly only ideological confrontation over the adoption of a new rite in one of the oldest monasteries in Russia is of particular interest.
