Abstract
The author analyzes the main stages of the research process conducted by domestic historians in the sphere of the European rulers’ power sacralization in the Middle Ages and early Modern Age. The author estimates the level of interest of Soviet and Russian specialists for the issue, determines the coherence between this issue actualization, formation of new scientific approaches and objective research conditions, as well as prevailing methods, concepts and theories of historic science. It is indicated that study methods have transformed due to a change of conjuncture and possibility to use West-European experience, where socio-cultural history has been developed by the use of postmodern trends, anthropology data and interdisciplinary approaches for historic past. The author estimates the contribution of contemporary Russian medievalists into power sacralization studies and describes the most significant domestic specialists in the field, their methods and works.
