• Views on the (Serbian Orthodox) Church Calendar as an Element of Cultural Heritage in Serbia : Attitudes on Online Platforms Stefanović-Banović, Milesa 2021 Philotheos , Vol. 21 , Issue 1 , S. 111 ff. ( Zeitschrift ) Englisch 1451-3455 | 2620-0163 10.5840/philotheos20212116 Abstract

    The Serbian Orthodox Church is considered by a number of Serbian citizens to be the “guardian” of tradition and cultural heritage. Issues related to church reforms are thus often particularly sensitive, and are perceived by some of the public as a danger to the preservation of cultur­al and religious identity. On the other hand, there are opinions in favor of reforms. In this context, the issue of church calendar reform is of special interest. Although it has been raised for more than a century, it is still as relevant as in the first attempts at the reform thereof. This paper explores the attitudes on online platforms in Serbia on this issue. Is the church calendar perceived as an integral part of the cultural heritage? What are the pros and cons of calendar reform? What would be the consequences of its potential change?
