Book Synopsis Religion and Nationality in Western Ukraine by : John-Paul Himka
Book excerpt: Delves into recently declassified Soviet archival material to examine the Greek Catholic Church and the national movement in Galacia in the late 19th century, focusing on the way differing concepts of Rutherian nationality affected the perception and course of church affairs. Examines the influence of local ecclesiastical matters on the development and acceptance of divergent concepts of nationality, and explains implications and complications of the Greek Catholic Church's struggle to maintain it distinctive rites and customs.
