Stograf Conference - Stograf Conference

Japanese: ストグラフ会議 - ストグラフかいぎ

A synod of Russian Orthodox bishops held in Moscow in 1551 as part of the government reform efforts of Russian Tsar Ivan IV. It is called the Stoglav (100 Chapters) Synod because its resolutions were compiled into 100 chapters. At the time, the Russian Orthodox Church had been isolated for many years, and as a result, there were noticeable differences in church practice with other Eastern Orthodox churches, errors in liturgical texts were ignored, and discipline among the clergy was lax. Furthermore, the expansion of church property and monastic estates was becoming a major obstacle to the rulers.

ロシアの皇帝イワン4世の国政改革事業の一環として，1551年にモスクワで開かれたロシア正教会の主教会議。決議が100章にまとめられたことから，ストグラフstoglav(100章)会議と呼ばれる。当時のロシア正教会は長年の孤立の結果，他の東方正教会との教会慣行上の違いが目立ち，また典礼文の誤りも放置され，聖職者の規律もゆるんでいた。さらに教会財産の肥大化と修道院の所領拡大は為政者にとって大きな弊害となっていた。
