TRADITIONS AND CULTURE UDC 2-184.2+2-283 N.O.Stratonova REFLECTION AND COMPREHENSION OF KIEVORUSSIAN BIBLIOGNOSTS OF PRE-CHRISTIAN BELIEFS Relevance of research. The question of studying religious phenomenon has always played a significant role in the culture of the Ukrainian people throughout the history of its existence. The new paradigm of studying religiosity of ancient Slavs leads to review literature of Kiev Rus not only through the prism of Christianity, but also stimulates circulation to the origins of pre-Christian religion. Consequently, this topic is still relevant and needs further study. During the last period in the scientific literature can be found only a few works of local Theologians, historians and philosophers, examining the relationship issues of pre-Christian and Christian elements in the beliefs of our ancestors. However, given the subject matter covered in the context of scientific interests of scientists and Kyiv Rus literature devoted only individual works. Theoretical and methodological bases of research the problems of relationship pre-Christian and Christian beliefs of the Ukrainian people in their interplay with the Orthodox cult is developed in the works of modern scientists: A. Golub, T. Gorbachenko, L. Konotop, G. Kulagin, A. Sagan, A. Coats, P . Yarotskiy. A detailed study of the spiritual heritage of Ukraine-Rus, its philosophical thought were of A. bulls, W. Gorski, J.

In their scientific heritage found a generalization and religious and philosophical foundations of religion in Ukraine, and investigated some issues the influence of religion on the spiritual culture of the Ukrainian people, which is important for the understanding of Ukrainian national mentality. The purpose of this article is to analyze the relationship of the pre-Christian and Christian worldviews in the literature of Kiev Rus XI-XIII. The task: to reveal the nature of the correlation of pre-Christian and Christian religions; reveal some aspects of the relationship of the aforementioned phenomena in the literature of Kiev Rus given period. The main content of the article. Spirituality of Ukrainian formed through a combination of pagan and Christian beliefs, pagan everyday life and Christian officialdom. Without doubt, a careful study of the religious dimension is a necessary condition for Reconstruction pre-Christian worldview as the scribe XI-XIII., And ancient population of Ukraine in general. Christianization of Rus, being "accessible" to us in written sources and archaeological monuments, is presented as a multifaceted phenomenon, evident in its basic forms and is quite difficult to understand, if we consider it in depth and sincerity of the personal experience of our ancestors. Naturally, the establishment of the new faith could not be an objective way to create a "uniform" and the same for all social strata Christian worldview. Every nation in its own experienced Christianity, respectively, and each layer had its public key to it, or at least their shades. In any society, culture as a "response" to the needs of the individual, group or society has a number of vital functions. In turning-era society is reconstructed, modifying inherent cultural institutions. However, it can not "force" themselves completely abandon them. Not degraded culture of the society as a social organism. Ancient Rus adopting Christianity as a new cultural tradition, it could not fill all the space of the former chronologically pre-Christian culture. Accordingly, those social institutions, whose main task - to meet important social needs could acquire Christian features only gradually. Rus fairly quickly became a Christian state. However, in the space of culture there was a gradual separation between "sectors", occupied the new religion of Christ and the old pagan faith. Niche, which filled two "industry", it chronicles, and pre-Christian beliefs have often unconscious nature. However, one could argue that in the genre of historical prose 3 of Kievan Rus seen literatureness priority. The most important material for reconstruction of religious and historical representations of ancient Rus chroniclers are religious considerations and remarks made to chronicle the story, lyrical digressions and descriptions of pre-Christian religion, offered as a deliberate critique of paganism, or as those in which the character display of pre-Christian views of Old scribe is unconscious. We believe that these considerations should be considered large semantic units that used chroniclers. Based chronicle monuments of Kyivan Rus it is possible to implement a coherent philosophical and religious view of the world scribes. The most constantly beliefs include the idea of a pantheon of gods, spirits, elements of demonology, belief in the afterlife, senders cult role in the life of contemporary Rus and their impact on some segments of society and so on. This indicates that not only archaeological evidence can give us information about the pre-Christian beliefs of the ancient population of Ukraine. Chronicles sources offer a more complete picture of the views of the scribes of the world, analyze and rethink certain values. All pre-Christian idea that existed in ancient chroniclers outlook, influenced the perception of the facts and play them in real life. Rus scribe was open to the world, he lived his worries and concerns. He certainly took the truth of the Christian Orthodox faith, and did not suit theological disputes and did not write philosophical treatises. Common Cause scribes - call for righteous Orthodox life.

    Yu. Makovei CURRENT STATE AND PROSPECTS OF TOURISM DEVELOPMENT IN UKRAINE The development of tourism industry in Ukraine is one of the priorities of European integration in modern conditions. Experience of Euro 2012 has shown promising and problematic areas that need improvement in public policy and government activity in general. For independent Ukraine tourism has become not only a "window to Europe", but also political, social, economic and environmental phenomenon. According to statistics economically developed countries, international tourism is one of the most lucrative businesses, which is an important incentive for the development of cultural and recreational tourism in Ukraine. Problems of development and improvement of tourism are not new, but require constant research. The above mentioned problem was solved in the research of scientists, as evidenced by the publications of Lyubitsevoyi O.O., O.O. Beydyka, Kifyaka V.F., A. Ilyina, A. Alexandrov, V. Quarterly, W. Kyfyak, F. Kolesnikova, I.A. Zorin IV, Malskyy M.P., Pankov E. B, Khudo V.V. and others. This article is an attempt to analyze the current state of tourism industry in Ukraine, Poland for further integration trends, identify particular educational tourism and reveal its tendencies Ukraine. Since the second half of last century the process of rapid development of international tourism has begun. From 1950 to 2012 the number of international tourists increased from 25 mln to 1.035 bln people, i.e. 40 times more. There are rapidly growing volumes and inter-folk tourism revenues, the amount of which in 2012 reached 1.075 billion dollars. In 2012, the tourism industry totaled 101.1 million jobs, and concentrated 3.3% of all employees.

For years, Galicia had been a part of Poland. Its scenery, woods and rivers had been our parents’ memories. A Jewish culture had developed in Galicia, the Yiddish language was created there, customs established, unique Jewish foods cooked, the figure of the “Yiddishe Mame” developed, inspiring a good deal of genealogical research; “Halakhot” and Rabbinic Laws made; an authoritative leadership established in the towns, organizing communities on their social institutions – Galicia gave birth to the “Shttetl” – the Jewish town, on all its social-historical and emotional implications.
