Study, translation from Greek into Russian, and commentary by Tatiana Senina (Nun Kassia) This book contains three translations into Russian of sources of IX century related to the period of a Byzantine Emperor Leo V the Armenian who re-established the iconoclasm in 815. A fragment of Chronicle by Theophanes the Confessor is given in a new translation; two other pieces - a chapter from the Chronicle by George the Monk (Hamartolos) dedicated to Leo's reign and a fragment of Scriptor incertus de Leone Armenio, one of the best sources in history of IX century - have been translated into Russian for the first time. The Introduction deals with the analysis of the sources and their authors as well as gives a panorama of the reign of Leo V. The translations are followed by extensive historical and theological commentary. The target audience are students and researchers in Byzantine history and especially in Byzantine iconoclasm.
