Résumé anglais The Literary Heritage of the 'Zealots of Piety': Myth or Reality? This study analyses the literary heritage of the 'zealots of piety' – a group of Muscovite clergy and laity who worked out projects of reform in the 17th century. N. F. Kapterev, Pierre Pascal, Vera S. Rumianceva and Wolfgang Heller have been dealing with that group, but many questions concerning the 'zealots of piety' have remained open. This article is an attempt to characterize texts attributed to the 'zealots'. These texts and their supposed authors are being discussed in chronological order. A certain Agafonik, the owner of a handwritten miscellany, whom several texts are attributed to, is discussed in detail. Using a new archival document, I also deal with the literary heritage of Stefan Vnifant'ev's, who was tsar Aleksej Mixajlovič's confessor. My conclusion from this study of texts and their authors is that the 'zealots of piety' were no 'textual community' and that the texts did not play a key role for them. Nevertheless it was among the 'zealots of piety' that Muscovy's most ingenious seventeenth-century writer, the protopop Avvakum, author of a famous autobiography, was formed.
