Product details

"Making Martyrs East and West: Canonization in the Catholic and Russian Orthodox Churches" by Cathy Caridi explores the historical and procedural development of canonization—the official recognition of saints—in both the Western (Catholic) and Eastern (Russian Orthodox) Christian traditions. Caridi offers a detailed comparative study showing how each tradition approached the making of martyrs, focusing on the formal procedures, theological underpinnings, and institutional changes over centuries.

The book highlights that while Catholic canonization evolved into a highly centralized and formalized process managed by the Vatican, the Russian Orthodox Church's canonization retained a more localized, less bureaucratic approach rooted in communal and regional practices. Caridi also discusses how political, cultural, and ecclesiastical factors shaped these divergent paths, reflecting broader East-West Christian differences.
