On the basis of classical Kirchhoff-Love model the stressed state of an elastic thin shell containing both isolated and continuously distributed dislocations and disclinations under large deformations is considered. The variational principles and general theorems of the linear shell theory with dislocations and disclinations are obtained. The problem of surface infinitesimal bending with distributed dislocations is formulated. The nonlinear shell theory with continuously distributed dislocations is constructed. A number of problems about concentrated defects in a closed spherical shell in linear and nonlinear formulations is solved.
