Abstract

The present paper discusses the lexical variation of the lexemes of ‘divine quietness’ and ‘silence’, found in the two Slavonic versions of the Ascetical Homilies of Isaac the Syrian. The preference of the translator of version B for the lexeme ‘silence’ marks a new step in the process of creation of ascetic terminology.
