Abstract: The article analyzes the issues of using the linguistic corpus to research Cyril’s and Methodius’s cultural heritage and Church Slavonic texts: the text is considered as the main point for analyzing the history of the Church Slavonic language. The author names topical issues for the research of the Church Slavonic language in the area of Slavia Ortodoxa, and demonstrates the possibilities of using corpus linguistics and its methods in the research of ancient and modern Church Slavonic texts. The article substantiates the theoretical and methodological possibility of analyzing linguistic phenomena (based on the text-centric principle) with the methods of corpus language research. The author analyzes the explanatory possibilities of modern text-oriented corpus linguistics and describes the dynamics of the text-centric approach in modern linguistic developments. The methodological connection of linguistics of Church Slavonic discourse with the corpus method of its research is explained.
