Mark Lavreschuk about why the Polish Church made the unprecedented decision to return to the Julian Calendar, whether there were any difficulties regarding this move to the “old style,” and how important the calendar issue is generally for Polish Orthodox.

The Orthodox approach to translation has generally been a conservative one. Slavonic was never the street language of Slavic speakers. It was a high form of Slavic language, with a huge amount of created terms, using Slavic root words, and putting them together in the same way Greek theological terms were constructed. The end result was a highly elevated language which was within reach of Slavic speaking people, but was not the language of the street.
