| Summary | This thesis deals with the Eastern Rite Redemptorists’ Mission in Ukraine from their arrival in 1913 until the beginning of the World War II. The Eastern Rite was used as an instrument to approach local people and set the mission toward the East. This study analyses the role of the Redemptorists in the ecumenical plan of Andrei Sheptytskyi and a project to reunite the Eastern and Western Church. The objectives of this research are to represent the educational and missionary activities of Redemptorists in the context of ethno- confessional situation in Western Ukraine and their role in political discourse of the population. |
