Прекращение московского церковного раскола 1467—1560 годов: финал истории в документах / The End of the Moscow Schism of 1467-1560: the Final of the Story in Documents (in Russian)

The schismatic (since 1467) Church of Muscovy returned under the omophorion of the Patriarch of C/ple in 1560/61 without being recognised to be a “Third Rome” but with recognition of Ivan IV as a regional “basileus”. The metropolitan of Moscow (Macarius) was recognised as a “patriarchal catholic exarch” (a title known since the 14th cent.), and the Moscow metropolia as separate from the Kievan one was established. The uncanonical Muscovite autocephaly was thus finished.
