Through his diverse works, he contributed significantly to the advancement of Armenian literature, particularly its poetic tradition. The hallmark of his genius is evident in nearly all medieval liturgical manuscripts, which he refined as a theologian, doctrinal scholar, exegete, liturgist, philosopher, and artist. His spiritually oriented writings and hymns elevated Armenian medieval art to a new, higher level, enriching both literature and music. Moreover, Nerses the Gracious contributed to the development of the text of the Divine Liturgy and the Armenian Missal, or “Advice Book,” which originated in the Apostolic period and was completed in the 10th century. Over the centuries, it was mainly enriched by the works of Gregory the Illuminator, Sahak Partev, Hovhannes Mandakuni, and Gregory of Narek, and in the 11th century, further developed through the efforts of Nerses the Gracious. Of particular significance is the Catholicos’ contribution to the liturgy, as many of his prayers, exhortations, and songs were incorporated into it. In this way, Nerses also refreshed and enriched their content. Since ancient times, notions of morality and religious rites and ceremonies have played an important role in maintaining human relationships within certain permissible boundaries. Christianity, in turn, initiated a radical transformation in the field of moral understanding, a development pursued by many fathers of the Armenian and universal Church. Nerses the Gracious occupied a distinct place among them. In the vast literary heritage of this multifaceted figure, these influences are clearly reflected through his moral-educational and ethical perspectives, which constitute the central focus of the present study.}, title={The Reflection of Moral and Moral-Educational Perspectives in the Works of Nerses Shnorhali}, type={Հոդված}, keywords={Philology}, }
