| Title | Cross on the Trident: The Religious Patriotism of the Monastic Order of St Basil the Great in the Context of Nation-Building in Ukraine, 1897-1914 |
| Summary | The research deals with the religious and patriotic discourses produced by the Order of St Basil the Great of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church at the turn of the 20th century in Galicia. The internal reform of the Basilian Order at the beginning of the 19th century enabled the Basilian Fathers to become a distinct force in the national movement. Combining the religious and patriotic components in their educational, pastoral, and editorial work the Basilian Fathers fostered the national idea. Christian patriotism cultivated by the Order was further developed by Metropolitan Andrey Sheptytsky in his attempt to unite Eastern and Western Christianity. Through a comparison of the editorial work of the Basilian Order and Letters of Metropolitan Andrey Sheptytsky the attempt is made to show the correlation between the ecumenical and nation-building processes on the local Galician and the all-Ukrainian national levels. |
