  • Atlas of American Orthodox Christian Churches A
    Atlas cover:Layout 1 4/19/11 11:08 PM Page 1 Atlas of American Orthodox Christian Churches Assembling a mass of recently generated data, the Atlas of American Orthodox Christian Churches provides an authoritative overview of a most important but often neglected segment of the American Christian community. Protestant and Catholic Christians especially will value editor Alexei Krindatchʼs survey of both Eastern Orthodoxy as a whole and its multiple denominational expressions. J. Gordon Melton Distinguished Professor of American Religious History Baylor University, Waco, Texas Why are pictures worth a thousand words? Because they engage multiple senses and ways of knowing that stretch and deepen our understanding. Good pictures also tell compelling stories. Good maps are good pictures, and this makes the Atlas of American Orthodox Christian Churches, with its alternation and synthesis of picture and story, a persuasive way of presenting a rich historical journey of Orthodox Christianity on American soil. The telling is persuasive for both scholars and adherents. It is also provocative and suggestive for the American public as we continue to struggle with two issues, in particular, that have been at the center of the Orthodox experience in the United States: how to create and maintain unity across vast terrains of cultural and ethnic difference; and how to negotiate American culture as a religious other without losing oneʼs soul. David Roozen, Director Hartford Institute for Religion Research Hartford Seminary Orthodox Christianity in America has been both visible and invisible for more than 200 years. Visible to its neighbors, but usually not well understood; invisible, especially among demographers, sociologists, and students of American religious life.

  • O. W. Gerus MANIFESTATIONS of the COSSACK IDEA in MODERN
    O. W. Gerus MANIFESTATIONS OF THE COSSACK IDEA IN MODERN UKRAINIAN HISTORY: THE COSSACK LEGACY AND ITS IMPACT* Introduction The making of the modern Ukrainian nation was profoundly inflUenced and moUlded by the Cossack heritage. The Ukrainian Cossackdom had floUrished for three centUries (approximately 1500—1800) dUring which time it constitUted the mainstream of the Ukrainian historical experience.1 Its traditions, symbolisms and myths, when translated into socio-political ideas of the 19th and 20th cen­ tUries, stood for sUch concepts as social jUstice, individUal freedom, patriotism and territorial sovereignty. The significant cUrrents of the Ukrainian political thoUght and action drew heavily on selected aspects of that legacy. Elements of the Cossack tradition can be readily foUnd in most of the major developments in recent times, be they of sUbstantive or sUperficial natUre. It is, however, crit­ ical to the comprehension of modern manifestations (19th and 20th centUries) of the Ukrainian Cossack phenomenon (kozachyna) to recognize the duality of Cossackdom. Ukrainian Cossackdom fUnctioned on two parallel and distinct levels — that of the Zaporozhian Sich and that of the Hetmanshcbyna. It is with this problem in mind that the paper will focUs on the historic natUre of the Ukrainian Cossacks before proceeding to delineate their legacy. Background Historical evidence indicates that the Ukrainian Cossackdom was a direct re­ sUlt of the colonization movement by the Ukrainian popUlation of the soUthern steppe region which began in the late 15th century.2 AlthoUgh threatened by the predatory Tatars, that rich and dangeroUs frontier had always attracted * This paper was originally presented at the Second World Congress on Soviet and Eastern EUropean StUdies at Garmisch, Germany in 1980.
