Christianity had a profound impact on world literature, therefore, in many works, the events of the Holy Scriptures found their artistic embodiment, and church holidays commemorate them. Thus, the literary meaning of Christmas has long been recognized by both writers and readers: there is even a genre of "Christmas or holiday story". But Easter, as the main Orthodox holiday, received artistic development mainly in Russian literature. There is a large, largely uncollected anthology of Easter works, in the creation of which many Russian poets and writers participated, including the most significant of them, and the content of these works is far from purely religious motives, representing a panorama of morals, traditions, social and moral conflicts , against the backdrop of the Easter celebration.
