Chapters: Rusyn language, Rusyns, West Ukrainian People's Republic, Lemkos, Carpatho-Ukraine, Ruthenian Catholic Church, Hutsuls, History of the Jews in Carpathian Ruthenia, Military history of Carpathian Ruthenia during World War II, Primeval Beech Forests of the Carpathians, Binczarowa, Lemko Republic, Boyko, Byzantine Catholic Eparchy of Mukacheve, Lemkivshchyna, Ruthenians and Ukrainians in Czechoslovakia, Karoly Hokky, Florynka, Carpatho-Rusyn American, Transcarpathia. Excerpt: Carpathian Ruthenia, (Rusyn and Ukrainian:, Karpats'ka Rus'; Slovak and Czech: Podkarpatska Rus; Hungarian: Romanian: Polish: ) is a small region in Eastern Europe, now mostly in western Ukraine's Zakarpattia Oblast (Ukrainian: Zakarpats'ka oblast'), easternmost Slovakia (largely in Pre ov kraj and Ko ice kraj), Poland's Lemkovyna and Romanian Maramure . In ethnic diversity, it is inhabited by Ukrainian, Rusyn, Lemko, Hungarian, Slovak, Romanian, Bulgarian and Russian populations. It has small Bogomil, Hutsul, Jewish, Romani and Szekler or Csango (ethnic Magyars of the Orthodox Church faith) minorities. The nomenclature of the region depends on geographic perspective and point of view. Thus from a Hungarian, Slovak, Czech perspective the region is described as Sub-Carpathia, (i.e. below the Carpathians) while from a Ukrainian and Russian perspective it is referred to as Trans-Carpathia (on the other side of the Carpathian mountains). The use of Carpathian Ruthenia is an attempt to provide a neutral term. During the region's period of Hungarian rule lasting approximately a thousand years, it was officially referred to by Hungarians as Subcarpathia (Hungarian: ) or North-Eastern Upper Hungary. After the Treaty of Trianon of 1920 and the breakup of Austria-Hungary the region became part of Czechoslovakia...

Book The Sorrowful Eyes Of Hannah Karajich

Download or read book The Sorrowful Eyes Of Hannah Karajich written by Ivan Olbracht and published by Central European University Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sorrowful Eyes of Hannah Karajich is a lyrical, deeply moving story of love and the pain of emancipation, set in the now vanished world of rural East European Jewish village life. Hanna is the most beautiful girl in all Polona, a Hasidic community in the remote province of Sub-Carpathian Ruthenia. Involvement in the exciting new movement of Zionism takes her away to a commune in a nearby town. But there she meets and falls in love with the strangely named Ivo Karajich: a Jew, yet not a Jew. The agonizing drama that follows, plants into her beautiful almond-shaped eyes the hard grain of sorrow that her children, too, will inherit. Olbracht's novella is both a great love story and a marvellous portrait of a world that modernity threatened and Hitler destroyed.

Book excerpt: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Pages: 26. Chapters: Bukovina, Carpathian Ruthenia, Galicia (Eastern Europe), Podolia, Pokuttya, Polesia, Volhynia, West Ukrainian People's Republic. Excerpt: Galicia or Halizia (Ukrainian: , Halychyna, Polish: , Romanian: , German: Russian: , Czech: , Slovak: , Yiddish: , Hungarian: ) is a historical region in Central Europe that currently straddles the border between Poland and Ukraine. The area, which is named after the medieval city of Halych, was first mentioned in Hungarian historic chronicles in the year 1206 as Galiciae. In the 18th century the Galician region was enlarged with territories now found within the modern Polish provinces of Ma opolskie Voivodeship and Podkarpackie Voivodeship. The nucleus of Galicia lies within the modern regions of western Ukraine: Lviv, Ternopil and Ivano-Frankivsk near the modern Ukrainian city of Halych. In the 13th century King Andrew II of Hungary used the style Galicia et Lodomeria - a Latinised version of the Slavic names Halych and Volodymyr, the major cities of the principality of Halych-Volhynia, which the Hungarians rule from 1214 to 1221. No doubt, that Latin designation Galicia et Lodomeria was used for this land before the period when it had been occupied by Andrew II for seven years. Prior to that, Halych-Volhynia cut a swathe as a mighty principality under the reign of Roman the Great in 1170-1205. After the expulsion of the Hungarians in 1221, Ruthenians took back rule of the area. Roman's son Danylo was crowned king of Halych-Volhynia. He founded Lviv (Leopolis), named in honour of his son Lev. Lev moved the capital from Halych to Lviv. The Ukrainian name Halych ( ) (Halicz in Polish, in Russian, Galic in Latin) comes from the Khwalis or Kaliz who occupied the area from the time of the Magyars. They were also called Khalisioi in Greek, and Khvalis..
