“…Do staroslovienčiny neskôr preložil aj traktáty, ktoré napísal Konštantín.Konštantín bol od mladosti naplnený pokorou, vynikal duchovným snažením a túžil po pokoji a čase strávenom v modlitbe. Preto sa rozhodol odísť za svojim bratom a ukryť sa pred svetom: "A nie po mnohom čase zasa sa odriekol celého tohto života a usadil sa na jednom nehlučnom mieste; žil iba sebe samému a na zajtrajší deň(Mt 6,34) nič nenechával, ale všetko chudobným rozdával a Bohu zveril starosť o seba (Ž 54, 23)... Potom odišiel na Olymp k Metodovi, bratovi svojmu, kde začal žiť a v modlitbách k Bohu bez prestania zotrvávať a len s knihami sa zhováral." 20Konštantín po náročných cestách a vyčerpávajúcej práci ochorel a jeho zdravotný stav sa veľmi zhoršil počas návratu z Veľkej Moravy.…”

ZOZUĽAKOVÁ, Viera. Practical Philosophy in the Lives of Constantine andMethodius. Constantine and Methodius were well educated and they could speak several languages. They were deeply religious men, leading strict and ascetic way of life, in accordance with Byzantine teachings and traditions. Although the names of both brothers are mainly connected with liturgy in Old Church Slavonic, their mission was of far greater significance. They both disseminated the Byzantine Christian thought by their lifestyle and participation in public life. The paper provides specification of terms related to Constantine's definition of philosophy and discusses the importance of practical philosophy in the lives of Constantine and Methodius. Furthermore, it focuses on the explanation of the meaning of the knowledge of truth in Byzantine Patristic context. It also focuses on explanation of meaning of knowledge of God the way Constantine and Methodius viewed this issue via theses of significant thinkers, mainly via theses of Gregory the Theologian, one of the most prominent Byzantine authors of the fourth century. Key words: philosophy, Byzantine traditions, ascetic way of life, knowledge, truth, Constantine, Methodiusabstrakt: ZOZUĽAKOVÁ, Viera. Praktická filozofia v živote Konštantína a Metoda. Konštantín a Metod mali vynikajúce vzdelanie a ovládali niekoľko jazykov. Boli hlboko veriacimi ľuďmi a v duchu učenia a tradície byzantskej cirkvi viedli prísny asketický život. Hoci sa mená oboch bratov spájajú predovšetkým s liturgiou v staroslovienskom jazyku, ich misia mala oveľa väčší rozmer. Obaja svojím životom a verejným pôsobením šírili byzantské kresťanské myslenie. Článok prináša vymedzenie termínov v Konštantínovej definícii filozofie a pojednáva o význa-me praktickej filozofie v živote Konštantína a Metoda. Ďalej sa zameriava na vysvetlenie výz-namu poznania pravdy v byzantskom patristickom chápaní, na objasnenie zmyslu poznávania božích vecí a priblíženia sa k Bohu tak, ako túto problematiku poznali Konštantín a Metod cez diela významných byzantských mysliteľov, predovšetkým prostredníctvom textov Gregora Teológa, jedného z najvýznamnejších byzantských autorov 4. storočia.

The Byzantine mission of saint brothers Cyril and Methodius had a major impact on the spiritual history of Great Moravia. In the centuries that followed, their works paved the way for the political and historical development of the Slavic nations, mainly in South-East and East Europe. The mission, which reached Great Moravia in 863, had several dimensions. The most important were evangelism and the cultural and civilizational dimensions. Translations of the Gospel and liturgical texts into Old Church Slavonic intensified the religious life of our ancestors and laid the foundations of literature and culture for almost the entire Slavic world. From this point of view, research should be focused on the role and reflection of this historical and cultural heritage in the ecclesiastical and spiritual, national and cultural life of the Slavic nations. The aim of this article is to assess the significance of Christian and Byzantine cultural values in terms of the collective Slavic identity. The Cyrillo-Methodian idea manifests itself in the history of the Slavic world as a complex but solid foundation, capable of renewing the sleeping or inhibited energy and values in the areas of faith, culture, literature, arts, education, upbringing, as well as national consciousness.

Переводная славянская гимнография, как и оригинальная византийская, содержит большое количество антитез и антиномий, которые, очевидно, являются одной из важнейших поэтикальныхчерт литургических текстов. На наш взгляд, эти поэтические средства послужили образцом для многих оригинальных славянских произведений, поэтому исследование антитез и антиномий в переводной гимнографии является важной задачей медиевистики,в частности, литературоведческой. В статье рассмотрены наиболее яркие антитезы и антиномии воскресной, рождественской и страстной служб.
