św. Paraskiewa-Petka Tyrnowska
Polska
St Parascheva-Petka of Tarnovo
Polska - Opis:
- Saint Parascheva-Petka was a hermit from Epivat in Trace near Kallikrateia. After the victory of Bulgarians over the army of the Thessalonian kingdom in Klokotnitsa in 1230, the Bulgarian tsar Ivan Asen II transferred her relicts to the capital of his country, Great Tirnovo and proclaimed her the saint patron of the capital and the country. Afterwards she became one of the most venerated Balkan saints in the Russian Church, due to the wave of emigration that followed Turkish invasion of the Balkan Peninsula at the end of the XIV century. Her name was already present in the Psalter (svossledovaniyem) belonging to the Kievan metropolitan Cyprian (1390-1406) of Balkan origin. St Dimitry of Rostov attributes the introduction of the saint’s feast (14 X) to the Kievan metropolitan Gregory Tsamblak (XV century). Due to the church policy of metropolitan Peter Mohyla (XVII century) the cult of St Parascheva the anchoress was particularly popular in the ancient metropoly of Kiev as well as the metropoly of Halych and Lithuania and afterwards spread to Subkarpathia, Chełm land and Podlachia. The cult of the saint was particularly intense and rich until the II world war – there were many copies of services dedicated to the saint in Polish Cyrillic manuscripts, prologues and collections of homilies, many churches dedicated to her, paraliturgical literature about her. The cult of the saint got folklorised in the village circles. As the feast of the saint anchoress fell near the feast of St Parascheva the martyr, of St Kyriaki (Sunday) the martyr and that of the Protection of the Mother of God, soon people enriched the person of St Parascheva-Petka with the features of the martyrs and of the Mother of God. All her icons were considered miraculous. Equally the Uniate Church preserved the feast of the saint in its calendars. After the II world war the borders changed, the Orthodox and Uniats were dispersed. The cult of the saint diminished but did not cease completely. There are fewer churches dedicated to her and the region in which she is venerated shrunk in the Orthodox as well as in the Uniate Church. As there are several saints with the same name in the church calendar, their cult in some places (particularly in Russia) got mixed up – the anchoress is identified with the martyrs of Ikonium and Rome. She is called Parascheva the New, Younger, the Bulgarian, the Serbian, of Epivat, of Tirnovo, of Jassy. In the course of time also her life and the history of her relics was modified several times. The Balkan anchoress, St Parascheva-Petka plays an important and unquestionable role in the Orthodox Church of Poland. She is one of the few saint women to whom churches are dedicated.
