Везе манастира Савине с Русијом у 18. веку и њихов утицај у Боки Которској
The Connections of Savina Monastery with Russia in the XVIII Century and their Influence in Boka Kotorska

Summary/Abstract: The connections of the Savina Monastery in Boka Kotorska with Russia in the XVIII century were intensive and deep. They contained the concept of Russia as the patron of Orthodox people under foreign dominion. Inspired by Russia, the Savina Monastery fraternity had an important role in social and political events in the area of Boka Kotorska. These relations influenced the local community in Boka Kotorska through a growing awareness of the necessity of liberation from foreign dominion, migrations of people to Russia, as well as through religious and cultural novelties brought by Russian literature and artistic design motifs, which were used and applied in the local community. The central point of unification of all these influences was the Savina Monastery, where the Great Church was raised mainly due to Russian donations.
