    1 The Lion-Lamb of Lviv (a fantasy in verse). An Exposition REECAS Conference Reed College, Portland, OR April 1, 2017 Eugene E. Lemcio, Ph.D.1 I. INTRODUCTION & DEFINITION Let me begin by introducing myself as a third generation American of Ukrainian descent. I am Emeritus Professor of New Testament at Seattle Pacific University. Twenty years ago, I founded and subsequently co-chaired the Ukrainian Studies Endowment Fund at the University of Washington. For thirteen years, I presided over the Ukrainian American Club [now, “Ukrainian Association”] of Washington State. During five trips to Ukraine in ten years, I lectured at State Universities and at seminaries of all major denominations in both Lviv and Kyiv.1 At the end of last year, I presented a paper during a four-day conference at the Ukrainian Catholic University in Lviv.2 A posting of my published works, including poetry, can be found on Academia.edu. The work under consideration appeared in the November-December issue of Theology, 2016. My poem adopts and adapts symbols from the late first century CE Apocalypse of St. John. Before proceeding further, defining terms is crucial. In general, when people hear the word “apocalypse,” they invariable think about catastrophe on a large, or global, or even cosmic scale. When reactor IV at Chornobyl [Ukrainian spelling] exploded in 1 Pages 5 and 6 of my CV (cited there) list my activities in the local Diaspora and in Ukraine itself. 2 “The Significance of the Deutercanon for Deepening the Relationship for Christianity and Judaism” (October 27, 2016). 2 1986.

  • The Jewel in the Emerald Necklace of the City of Lviv
    HALYNA PETRYSHYN*, OLHA KRYVORUCHKO**, HALYNA LUKASHCHUK*, STEPAN TUPIS’* THE PARK IN ST. YURI (ST. GEORGE) SQUARE – THE JEWEL IN THE EMERALD NECKLACE OF THE CITY OF LVIV SKWER NA PLACU ŚW. JURY – KLEJNOT W SZMARAGDOWYM NASZYJNIKU LWOWA Abstract The most valuable parks in Lviv were designed by the famous city gardener Arnold Röhring, who managed to combine in the art of landscape design the different styles of the turn of 20th century. If the large parks of the city are under state protection, the smaller ones designed as public gardens, boulevards, gardens near the villas are constantly being rebuilt and destroyed. The results of the study of the park in St. Yuri Square in Lviv give grounds for considering this park an authentic monument of landscape art of the end of the 19th century, where its compositional structure and state of rare old-growth species of trees and shrubs are well preserved. Keywords: Lviv parks, landscape design, public gardens, Arnold Röhring Streszczenie Najcenniejsze parki we Lwowie zostały zaprojektowane przez słynnego ogrodnika miejskiego Arnol- da Röhringa, któremu udało się połączyć w sztuce projektowania krajobrazu różne style przełomu XIX i XX wieku. Jeśli duże parki miasta są pod ochroną państwa, mniejsze, zaprojektowane jako ogrody pu- bliczne, skwery, bulwary, ogrody w pobliżu willi, stale są przebudowane i niszczone. Badania skweru na placu św. Jury we Lwowie dają podstawy do uznania go autentycznym zabytkiem sztuki krajobrazowej z końca XIX wieku, w którym struktura kompozycyjna i stan starodrzewu rzadkich gatunków są dobrze zachowane.

  • Sacred Places in Lviv – Their Changing Significance and Functions
    PrACE GEOGrAFICznE, zeszyt 137 Instytut Geografii i Gospodarki Przestrzennej UJ Kraków 2014, 91 – 114 doi : 10.4467/20833113PG.14.011.2156 Sacred placeS in lviv – their changing Significance and functionS Małgorzata Flaga Abstract : In the paper, issues of a multitude of functions of sacred places in Lviv are considered. The problem is presented on the example of selected religious sites that were established in distinct periods of the development of the city and refers to different religious denomina- tions. At present, various functions are mixing in the sacred complexes of Lviv. The author tries to formulate some general conclusions concerning their contemporary role and leading types of activity. These findings are based, most of all, on analyses of the facts related to the history of Lviv, circumstances of its foundation, various transformations, and modern func- tions of the selected sites. Keywords : Lviv, Western Ukraine, religious diversity, functions of religious sites introduction Lviv, located in the western part of Ukraine, is a city with an incredibly rich his- tory and tradition. It was founded in an area considered to be a kind of political, ethnic and religious borderland. For centuries the influence of different cultures, ethnic and religious groups met there and the city often witnessed momentous historical events affecting the political situation in this part of Europe. The com- munity of the thriving city was a remarkable mosaic of nationalities and religious denominations from the very beginning. On the one hand, these were representa- tives of the Latin West ( first – Catholics, later on – Protestants ), on the other hand – the Byzantine East.

    TRANSITIONS FORUM CURBING CORRUPTION: IDEAS THAT WORK | SEPTEMBER 2015 The Spirit of Lviv How Ukraine’s most European city forged a popular movement against corruption and bad governance. by Ilya Lozovsky www.li.com www.prosperity.com www.foreignpolicy.com/channel/democracy-lab/ ABOUT THE LEGATUM INSTITUTE The Legatum Institute is an international think tank and educational charity focussed on promoting prosperity. We do this by researching our core themes of revitalising capitalism and democracy. The Legatum Prosperity IndexTM, our signature publication, ranks 142 countries in terms of wealth and wellbeing. Through research programmes including The Culture of Prosperity, Transitions Forum, and the Economics of Prosperity, the Institute seeks to understand what drives and restrains national success and individual flourishing. The Institute co-publishes with Foreign Policy magazine, Democracy Lab, whose on- the-ground journalists report on political transitions around the world. The Legatum Institute is based in London and an independent member of the Legatum Group, a private investment group with a 27 year heritage of global investment in businesses and programmes that promote sustainable human development. ABOUT CURBING CORRUPTION: IDEAS THAT WORK The Democracy Lab and Legatum Institute have commissioned a series of case studies that examine specific interventions against corruption which have produced positive results. The aim is to tell a set of stories that illustrate how combatting corruption works in practice, which may offer insight on some of the larger issues across the globe. The papers will form the basis of a conference in September 2015, and will focus on broader themes, such as developing methods to combat corruption, promoting good outcomes, and measuring success.

  • Circulations in the Global History of Art
    An Ashgate Book circulations in the global history of art The project of global art history calls for balanced treatment of artifacts and a unified approach. This volume emphasizes questions of transcultural encounters and exchanges as circulations. It presents a strategy that highlights the processes and connections among cultures, and also responds to the dynamics at work in the current globalized art world. The editors’ introduction provides an account of the historical background to this approach to global art history, stresses the inseparable bond of theory and practice, and suggests a revaluation of materialist historicism as an underlying premise. Individual contributions to the book provide an overview of current reflection and research on issues of circulation in relation to global art history and the globalization of art past and present. They offer a variety of methods and approaches to the treatment of different periods, regions, and objects, surveying both questions of historiography and methodology and presenting individual case studies. An “Afterword” by James Elkins gives a critique of the present project. The book thus deliberately leaves discussion open, inviting future responses to the large questions it poses. Thomas DaCosta Kaufmann is Frederick Marquand Professor of Art and Archaeology, Princeton University, US. Catherine Dossin is Associate Professor of Art History, Purdue University, US. Béatrice Joyeux-Prunel is Associate Professor of Art History, École normale supérieure, France. STUDIES IN ART HISTORIOGRAPHY Series Editor: Richard Woodfield, University of Birmingham, UK The aim of this series is to support and promote the study of the history and practice of art historical writing focusing on its institutional and conceptual foundations, from the past to the present day in all areas and all periods.
