Meletius Smotrytsky (Ukrainian: Мелетій Смотрицький, Meletii Smotrytskyi; Belarusian: Мялецій Сматрыцкі, Mialiecij Smatrycki; Russian: Мелетий Смотрицкий, Meletiy Smotritsky; Polish: Melecjusz Smotrycki), né Maksym Herasymovych Smotrytsky (c. 1577 – 17 or 27 December 1633), Archbishop of Polotsk (Metropolitan of Kyiv), was a writer, a religious and pedagogical activist of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, a Ruthenian linguist whose works influenced the development of the Eastern Slavic languages. His book "Slavonic Grammar with Correct Syntax" (1619) systematized the study of Church Slavonic and became the standard grammar book in Russia right up till the end of the 18th century. He believed in the revival of the Orthodox religion in traditionally Slavic lands (see Slavic people) centered in the Tsardom of Muscovy.
