  • The Landscape-Ecological Situation in the Valley of the River Seret Within the Limits of Terebovlia District Is Considered in the Article
    Конструктивна географія і геоекологія Наукові записки. №2. 2017. UDC 911.3: 338.48 Nadia STETSKO LANDSCAPE-ECOLOGICAL INVESTIGATIONS OF THE SERET RIVER WITHIN TEREBOVLIA AREA The landscape-ecological situation in the valley of the river Seret within the limits of Terebovlia district is considered in the article. The hydrological characteristics, location, tributaries of the river Seret are investigated. The main classes of landscapes, which are represented in the river valley and along the adjacent territory are characterized; they are naturally and anthropogenically altered landscapes with characteristic soil erosion processes and other negative phenomena. The hydrological, hydrobiological, hydrochemical, sanitary-biological regime of the river and the main causes of excessive pollution of the valley of the river Seret and its channel are analyzed. An integrated and integrated assessment of water from the main pollutants (11) in the river Seret, within the limits of Terebovlia area at a distance of 88 km at five points of observation was carried out. The section of the channel with the highest level of water pollution in the river is determined and there are also identified the main reasons for such an ecological situation. The smallest index of pollution within the studied area of the river is also determined. In order to preserve the water object from further anthropogenic loading there have been proposed measures for the preservation and reproduction of natural classes of landscapes in the valley of the river Seret and the measures for cleaning the river bed from communal, industrial waste, household rubbish. Keywords: river valley, ecological state, landscape-ecological research, integral and integrated assessment of water.

  • Zarvanytsia. the Most Significant Pilgrimage Center in Ukraine
    Zarvanytsia. The most significant pilgrimage center in Ukraine This week we will look at Zarvanytsia. Located in the Ternopil region in Western Ukraine, Zarvanytsia is the most famous pilgrimage destination in Ukraine. The Village of Zarvanytsia is located in a picturesque area of the Podilia region in Western Ukraine. The River Strypa flows through it and carries its calm waters through the valleys and into the Dniester River. On three sides, the village is surrounded by low hills covered with dense forest. The diversity of trees, caves and canyons form a scenic landscape. According to local tradition, the village received its current name with the miraculous icon of the Mother of God in 1240, during the time of the Tater-Mongol Yoke in Ukraine. Earlier that same year, Kyiv was invaded and the Church of Tithes and many monasteries were destroyed. Trying to save their lives, the monks fled. The survivors made their way to Galicia seeking protection from local princes who had agreements with Batu Khan. The miraculous icon of the Mother of God The legend tells of one of the Kyivan monks, a native of Galicia, who managed to escape the invaders. On his way to Terebovlia, he stopped in the woods for a night, exhausted from hunger and his wounds. The monk sincerely prayed for his war-torn land, asking for the intercession of the Mother of God, yet soon fell asleep while praying. In a dream, the Blessed Virgin Mary appeared with two angels holding white lilies. The Mother of God blessed the monk and touched him with Her omophorion.

  • Galician Villagers and the Ukrainian National Movement in the Nineteenth Century Digitized by the Internet Archive
    GALICIAN VILLAGERS AND THE UKRAINIAN NATIONAL MOVEMENT IN THE NINETEENTH CENTURY JOHN-PAUL HIMKA This first case-study of how the East European peasantry was drawn into national politics focuses on the Ukrainians of Galicia, 1772-1914. From first-hand testimony by peasants and rural notables, it demonstrates that the peasants’ political consciousness was forged by serfdom, and reforms initiated by the state and the penetration of a money economy. The book breaks new ground on related issues, including the connection between class and national consciousness, the reasons for a sharp exacerbation of the peasantry’s antagonism towards Jews, the new role of generational differences in the village and the place of rural women in the national movement.
