See also:LUCARIS, CVRILLOS (1572-1637) , See also:Greek See also:prelate and theologian, was a native of See also:Crete. In youth he travelled, studying at See also:Venice and See also:Padua, and at See also:Geneva coming under the See also:influence of the reformed faith as represented by See also:Calvin. In 1602 he was
elected See also:patriarch of See also:Alexandria, and in 1621 patriarch of See also:Constantinople. He was the first See also:great name in the Orthodox Eastern See also:- CHURCH

Church since 1453, and dominates its See also:history in the 17th See also:century. The great aim of his See also:life was to reform the church on Calvinistic lines, and to this end he sent many See also:young Greek theologians to the See also:universities of See also:Switzerland, See also:- HOLLAND

Holland and See also:England. In 1629 he published his famous Confessio,•Calvinistic in See also:doctrine, but as far as possible accommodated to the See also:language and See also:creeds of the Orthodox Church. It appeared the same See also:year in two Latin See also:editions, four See also:French, one See also:German and one See also:English, and in the Eastern Church started a controversy which culminated in 1691 in the See also:convocation by Dositheos, patriarch of See also:Jerusalem, of a See also:synod by which the Calvinistic doctrines were condemned. Lucaris was several times temporarily deposed and banished at the instigation of his orthodox opponents and of the See also:Jesuits, who were his bitterest enemies. Finally, when See also:Sultan See also:Murad was about to set out for the See also:Persian See also:War, the patriarch was accused of a See also:design to stir up the See also:Cossacks, and to avoid trouble during his See also:absence the sultan had him killed by the See also:Janissaries (See also:June 1637). His See also:body was thrown into the See also:sea, recovered and buried at a distance from the See also:capital by his See also:friends, and only brought back to Constantinople after many years.
The orthodoxy of Lucaris himself continued to be a See also:matter of debate in the Eastern Church, even Dositheos, in view of the reputation of the great patriarch, thinking it expedient to See also:gloss over his heterodoxy in the interests of the Church.
