Abstract
The first canonized Russian saints were the princes Boris and Gleb (d. 1015), and the early accounts of their martyrdom, dating to the late eleventh or early twelfth century, are among the most important works of early Russian hagiography. It is the aim of this paper to locate these texts in the history of European martyrology, and to identify where they exhibit originality.
