Abstract
The paper is focused on a theme of 'spiritual feast' in the Russian baroque homiletics, particularly, on two voluminous collections of sermons, entitled "Obed dushevniy" ("Spiritual Dinner") and "Vecherya dushevnaya" ("Spiritual Dinner"), and on an encyclopedic collection of verses "Vertograd mnogotsvetniy" ("Many-flowered garden"), composed by Simeon Polotsky. This paper attempts to explore a number of significant sources of the Christian concept of the Feast in Russian baroque literature both in sermons' collections and in "Vertograd". Themes and subjects, belonging to dogmatic and moral theology are closely intertwined; in one case they constitute a prose text; in another they represent verses. The author shows that Simeon Polotsky's verse "Vecherya nebesnaya" ("Heavenly Supper") from "Vertograd" can be considered as poetic versions of sermon. This viewpoint is similar with the research outcome of A. Hippisley, who claimed that the plot of this verse can be found in sermons' texts of Catholic Jesuit Priest Meffreth's Hortulus Riginae. The latter served as a great resource of subjects, themes, and sometimes even rhetorical devices, which Simeon had borrowed and subsequently used in his poem. However, the main literature resource for Simeon and his predecessors were, certainly, the Bible narratives.
