ST BIRGITTA OF SWEDEN'S INFLUENCE IN FINLAND
MAIJU LEHMIJOKI
    A nd make public the words that I have spoken with my own mouth and deliver them personally to the head of the church.
      Christ to Bishop Hemming, in St Birgitta, Revelationes I.52
    Bishop Hemming and St Birgitta, Urdiala, Finland
D uring many of her Revelations, St Birgitta of Sweden (1303-1373) heard Christ and the Virgin reveal the will of God, which she was to pass on to secular and clerical rulers, as well as to common people. These messages often fiercely urged their recipients to repent so that their souls would be saved from divine anger, and God's peace could rule the world. The spiritual messages were intertwined with visions for the practical reform of the church and secular kingdoms, which in Birgitta's day were troubled by wars, the Papacy's dislocation in Avignon (1309-1377) and epidemic of the plague later known as the Black Death (1347-1351). Bishop Hemming and Prior Peter made their journey between 1346 and 1349. Their mission was to deliver to the Pope Birgitta's Revelation which lamented the decline of the Papacy. This Brigittine Revelation urged the Pope to reform his own lasciviousness, to cease supporting the King of France, and to return the Papal See to Rome. In Birgitta's Revelation Christ spoke directly to Clement:
    It will not remain a secret how at your time greed and ambition flourished in the Church, and how many things you could have reformed and improved, but you, lover of the flesh, balked.

    How the holiday is celebrated in the ukraine. Find out why the Ukrainians honor Christmas in January instead of December.
    http://209.82.14.226/culture/traditions/christmas/
    CHRISTMAS, WHICH TAKES ITS NAME from Christ's Mass, was first celebrated on various dates from about 200 A.D. but was finally set on December 25 by Bishop Liberus of Rome in 354 A.D. The December date, which almost coincides with the winter solstice, became a popular festival of West Europe during the Middle Ages. But as late as the nineteenth century, Christmas celebration was suppressed in Scotland and New England because of some religious differences. All Christian nations have traditions which have become a part of the Christmas season. For example, England has contributed the decorations of holly and mistletoe, carolling and gift giving.The Christmas tree is a medieval German tradition and the immortal carol "Silent Night" also comes from Germany. The United States first made Santa Claus popular in New York, popularized the Christmas card about 1846 and made the major contribution to commercializing Christmas. When Ukraine under King Volodymyr (St. Vladimir) accepted Christianity from Byzantium in 988 A.D. many pagan traditions were in existence which were adapted by the Church to the new religion. Some of those traditions have survived a thousand years and now form a part of today s Christmas celebrations. SVIATA VECHERA OR "HOLY SUPPER" is the central tradition of the beautiful Christmas Eve celebrations in Ukrainian homes. The dinner table sometimes has a few wisps of hay on the embroidered table cloth as a reminder of the manger in Bethlehem. Many Canadian and American families wear their Ukrainian embroidered shirts on this occasion.

    CULTURE
    Literature Ancient Ukrainian literature was sprung from sermons, legends, chronicles, and warrior epos in the days of the Kyiv State. The original preaching literature is presented by impressive political treatise of Ilarion, the priest of the church at the court of Great Prince Yaroslav the Wise at Berestov (who later became the first Metropolitan of Kyiv and all-Ukraine Rus). This work, “The Speech on Law and Blessing” was proclaimed in the 11th century in the Desiatynna Church in honor and for the glory of Prince Volodymyr the Great who joined Kyiv Rus with the Christian world. “The Song of Igor’s Campaign”, written by an unknown author, is considered the most famous poetic work of the 12th century. This work is based on the historical story about the campaign of Igor, Prince of Novgorod-Siversky, his brother Vsevolod, son Volodymyr and nephew Sviatoslav against the polovtsians, his defeat and flight from captivity. From the Middle Ages, the wonderful samples of folk-poetic works has appeared, which were in the form of historical ballads, songs, lyrics, genre poetry, and folk poetry. They reflect life and the manner of people, as well as historical events and activities of people. At present, the literature of the 16-17th centuries is especially attractive. It includes the works of the period of the national-liberation struggle and the struggle for renewal of Ukrainian statehood.

    Ukraine - Culture
    By Ekaterina Zhdanova-Redman So much beauty can be found in Ukraine. This Eastern European country's beauty comes in the form of song, dance, and ancient arts. Ukrainian culture dates back thousands of years. Some Ukrainian art forms practiced hundreds of years ago are still practiced today.
    Ukraine is well known for its folk music. Folk music is a kind of music performed by a country's "regular" peoplepeople who aren't famous or professional musicians. Ukrainian folk music comes from traditions that are hundreds of years old. Long, poetic stories called "bylyny" are a part of Ukrainian folk music. So is "duma"a kind of long ballad. A ballad is a song that tells a story. Ukrainian dumas were written about the Cossacks. Cossacks are Ukrainian soldiers that have been in Ukraine for hundreds of years.
    In old times, people called "kobzar" performed Ukrainian folk music. They got their name from the instrument they playedthe kobza. The kobza was a stringed instrument. In more recent times, an instrument called the bandura replaced the kobza. The bandura, and the people who played them, became very famous. In fact, the bandura became the national symbol of Ukraine. There is even a famous groupthe Ukrainian Bandura Chorusthat performs all over the world.

Charismatic politicians alternated with rock groups on the central stage of Independence Square. A new folklore of street chants and songs and jokes erupted overnight. Television beamed to its audience at home and abroad the individual faces that comprised the collective portrait of an altered nation. The Orange Revolution may come to be viewed as a watershed in the evolution of Ukrainian national identity as a civic identity. What is already clear is that the Orange Revolution was a cultural event of the first magnitude.

    Ukraine's performers participate in first Days of Ukrainian Culture in Moscow by Roman Woronowycz
    Kyiv Press Bureau MOSCOW - Ukrainian music resounded in the concert halls of Moscow on October 24-29 as the first annual Days of Ukrainian Culture in Russia took place, with the appearance of many of Ukraine's musical and dance stars. The festival included traditional Ukrainian folk music and dance as well as opera, ballet and pop music performances, and even appearances by renowned Ukrainian humorists. The series of concerts and an international symposium was a tangible result of the "big treaty" on friendship and cooperation signed by the presidents of Russia and Ukraine in May, which included stipulations for cultural exchanges. Yevhen Kushniarov, head of the administration of Ukraine's President Leonid Kuchma, said on October 29 in Kyiv that the five-day series of programs was a success. "There are many Ukrainians in Russia, and the Days of Ukrainian Culture is a great propaganda tool for Ukraine," explained Mr. Kushniarov. "We must support the cultural needs of the Ukrainians who live in Russia." The effort, co-sponsored by the ministries of culture of both countries, was not the first such affair in Moscow. During Soviet times there were days dedicated to celebrations of ethnic cultures of the Soviet Union, including Ukrainian, explained Oleksander Semchenko of Ukraine's Ministry of Culture offices in Moscow. He said that in addition, after perestroika the Ukrainian Youth Club, an organization of Ukrainian students studying in Moscow, of which he was a member, organized Ukrainian cultural festivals on a twice-yearly basis. He said those efforts died with the economic downturn that developed in Russia after 1991 and the organization's demise.

    CANADA COURIER by Christopher Guly Ukraine's culture minister comes calling On Canada Day, July 1, Dmytro Ostapenko played tourist in Ottawa with his fellow culture ministers from 20 countries at the invitation of their Canadian counterpart, Heritage Minister Sheila Copps. Mr. Ostapenko, Ukraine's minister of culture and arts since 1995 and former director-general of the Kyiv Philharmonic Orchestra, now would like Canadians to play tourist in his country. There's much to choose from: operas, ballets and philharmonic orchestras in Kyiv, Lviv, Odesa and Kharkiv. So, it's not so much a case of building the attractions with the result that the people will come; Ukraine needs to promote the attractions it already has. "It requires an exposé that this exists and for the Canadian public to get interested," said Oksana Bashuk Hepburn, who in May was elected president of the Ottawa branch of the Ukrainian Canadian Congress. "What we're interested in is getting the word out that Ukraine is a thriving country. Its arts are thriving and it has a lot to offer a tourist, especially someone seeking a new cultural geographic venue." And, Ukraine's tourism potential extends beyond its arts scene, said Ms. Bashuk Hepburn, who owns a bilateral business development company called U-CAN: Ukraine Canada Relations Inc.

    It is necessary to say that the word globalization is not so well-known in Ukraine as in Western countries. It goes without saying that Ukrainians feel the huge influence of the process, but do not know the word. The majority of the students needed general information about x globalization to be clarified. They were also advised on the structure of the essay (introduction, body of three parts, conclusion). However, they did not always follow the advised structure exactly. In Slavic writing traditions formal structure seems to be the same at the first glance, but there are a lot of details that are different. For example, Ukrainian or Russian essays often begin from the details which are not closely connected with the theme. Besides that, at the university we do not pay much attention on writing, only in high school, and the experience of students in writing often depends on a certain school. In this way, the students needed pre-writing discussion and explanations of the teacher. The writing was begun in class in order to give the teacher an opportunity to look through the beginning of work during the class. At the next class the first draft was revised; each student received different advice

    Influence of Hollywood Movies Globalization H ome Page American Movies Influence Ukrainian Culture Tamila Spektorov from Ukraine Ukraine was a so-called closed country until Perestroyka. American movies started to influence Ukrainian culture at that time. Ukrainian youth was affected by the way the Americans portrayed in those movies dressed, talked, and behaved. It was diffficult for poor Ukrainian movie studios to compete with the rich Hollywood ones, so our movie theaters were swamped with Hollywood films. After "Perestroyka, each individual was allowed to travel anywhere; but even today, most Ukrainians still cannot afford to travel overseas. As a result, most Ukrainian youth get their image of Americans through the Hollywood movies which continue to dominate the Ukrainian screens. When I visited the capital of Ukraine two years ago, I was concerned with what I saw. Many young people (especially poor, uneducated young people from small villages) looked like bad copies of young Americans. Unfortunately, those youngsters had not chosen to follow the best American examples. I hope this situation will change in the near future. I hope that the new government will find ways to curb the bad influence of these movies on local youth. I wish the Ukrainian government would import only the best Hollywood movies.

    Third generation
    While the leaders of Russian Provisional Government and White movement, as mentioned above, in the short time of war and revolution simply rejected the existence of separate Ukrainian states in 1917-1920, and to a considerable extent repeated the prewar liberal and conservative considerations of Ukraine, the Russian political thought on emigration again demonstrated a new degree of the scholarly and theoretical attitude toward the Ukrainian question.
    The Ukrainian problem was very widely envisaged in the studies of the representatives of a well-known trend in Russian political thought - evraziistvo
    The territory of Russia -the USSR -Eurasians perceived as a special historical and geographical world belonging neither to Europe nor to Asia, as peculiar historical and geographical individuality.
    According to one of the founders of evraziistvo, the son of Vladimir Vernadskii - Georgii Vernadskii (1897-1972), the total Slavic population of Eastern Europe was largely inclined toward unification and making a united Russian people, which would build a united country. Vernadskii gives a general history of the Eastern European population, i.e. Slavs and their neighbours. As to the Russian history, he stands on the positions of the old historiography: be it Kiev or Novgorod, Smolensk or Moscow - they are "Russian" towns. "The division of the Russian people into three branches: the Great Russians, the Malorussians and the Belorussians" - he writes - "goes back to a much later period. Until the thirteenth century there was no, more or less, distinct branching."

    Second generation
    At the turn of the century the Russian liberal opposition was enforcing its ideas of individual liberty and the ways of limiting the dominant role of tsar and the state. The opposition was doing it at first through zemstvos and dumas and then through different professional organizations. In the autumn of 1905 the first congresses of legal liberal parties were taking place, and in April 1906 Russia became a constitutional monarchy.
    The two foremost theorists of the twentieth-century Russian liberalism were Pavel Miliukov (1859-1943) and Petr Struve (1870-1944). In his first scholarly works Miliukov tried to underline the difference between Kievan period of Russian history from the Moscow one. Three major premises connect the vision of Russian history by Miliukov in his early historical works: the changeability of Russia throughout its existence, due to its own internal dynamic; in decided contrast to this, the external nature of the formative influences on the state order, culture and national ideas; and the fact of the imposition of borrowed culture from above. Also of great importance was the decision to exclude Kievan history from the history of state order and of national ideas, since "in the north-east there were entirely different conditions of historical development than in the south." At the same time this statement represents a retreat from his bolder assertion, in the lecture course, that "The ancient Kievan period of our history is separated from more recent times not only chronologically, but actually."
