For our contemporaries, the figures of Cyril and Methodius are valuable symbols of the written language and culture of the Slavic community. The iconic system, developed by the geniuses of Methodius and Cyril, in many ways determined the historical path of development of Russian literature. Cyril and Methodius are revered both in the Western Christian tradition, and in the eastern. The legacy of these two saints is so great that the day of their memory is celebrated at the state level in many countries: in Russia, Slovakia, Bulgaria, Macedonia, the Czech Republic.
