• Much famous was the main work of Filaret "History of the Russian Church" (driven to 1826), released in five editions in Riga and Moscow in 1847-1848 and went through many editions. The author proposed a fundamentally new periodization of Russian church history, dividing it into five periods: from the beginning of Christianity in Russia before the Mongol invasion (988-1237). from the invasion of the Mongols to the Russian division of the Archdiocese (1237-1410). the division of the Archdiocese to the establishment of the patriarchate (1410-1588). Patriarchate period (1589-1720). synodal Office (1721-1826). In abbreviated form it was first published in 1859 and later, as a textbook, withstood many editions. According to Georges Florovsky (counts Bishop Filaret man of "exceptional talent, with disturbing thoughts and disturbing heart"), in this work, "the first time the entire Russian Church history was told and shown as a living whole, is told clearly and thoughtfully." Professor Anton Kartashev believed that "real scientists history of the Russian Church, we have since the publication of the" History of the Russian Church, "Archbishop Filaret."
