In this engaging and informative video, the Carpatho-Rusyn Society takes us through the history and culture of the Carpatho-Rusyn Easter (Veligden) celebration. The Carpatho-Rusyns are a stateless people who live in the Carpathian Mountain border regions of eastern Slovakia (former Czechoslovakia) southern Poland, Transcarpathian region (Zakarpatska oblast / Zakarpattia) of Ukraine, northern Romania and northern Hungary with large immigrant populations in Serbia, Croatia and the United States.
Under the Austro-Hungarian Empire they lived in western Galician and northeastern Hungary. Calling themselves Rusyns or Rusnaks, the Rusyns have been referred to by others as Ruthenians, Carpatho-Russians, Lemkos and Uhro-Rusyns.
Carpatho-Rusyn Easter (Greek Catholic/Byzantine and Orthodox) traditions are influenced by their pre - Christian pagan beliefs and practices, many of which show up in the decorations and choices of their Easter foods. This is seen in the designs on their Easter bread (Paska), Easter eggs (Pysanky) and egg cheese (Hrudka). We see the varying styles of Easter eggs (pysanky) and how they differ. And, surprisingly, we learn how they even play a role in Carpatho-Rusyn courtship.

My Didi was born in Brody. He came to Providence, Rhode Island in 1907 . He was a founding member of St. John’s Church . I remember him visiting every Easter with hard boiled eggs and proclaiming: “He has risen!”. He lived to be 94. I loved him.

Thank you, John. Your talk brought back fond memories of my childhood, because it was only at Easter that we experienced some of the Rusyn culture. Otherwise, since it was only my grandfather who was Rusyn and even though I bear the name (Havrilla), my siblings and I were absorbed into just an "American" culture and are now part of the Latin tradition of the Catholic Church.

So much my apo told me but more! Maybe why I love spiders. 😊 My family did very basic pysanki with a pinhead and put in a whittled piece of wood,but very beautiful patterns. Love this teaching and hope you'll make more.

That was a wonderful & informative video. I remember all the traditions that my family had at Easter. This was a great video to watch as I am about to prepare my Easter basket this year. My closest family members are now gone but I’m here to help preserve the traditions that I grew up with. Thanks again.

@@alexpaul6054 tha is. I hope they were paid well. The Lanyi brothers from the town now named Dohve (Dolha), specifically came to Pittsburgh for that work. They lived in Glassport. Times were hard. I thank them for their tenacity and commitment. They arrive in 1919 @ Ellis island. I bought a brick with their names and date. My plan is to visit Dohve, Zacarpathia. I finally located the town. It was a short elation, as the town is in Ukraine. SW and no bombing, but still😩 the town has such an old history and so many governments have named it their own. Putin can drop dead anytime now BTW

Random thing: anybody know where this pronunciation of kielbasa comes from? It’s how my family and I have always said it but I’ve never heard anyone else say it that way

@CarpathoRusynSociety 4 года назад

I believe John's family is from a Rusyn village in Slovakia. Obviously the pronunciation changes from place to place. He may have also been influenced growing up in western Pennsylvania.

@36karpatoruski 4 года назад

Rusyns are the descendants of the White Croats that migrated north into trans-Carpathia 1200-1500 years ago. They are an ethnically distinct but stateless stateless eastern slavic group with a codified unique language. They are recognized as a unique and distinct group by every country on earth except Ukraine. Interesting how Ukrainians so strongly object to being called little Russians, yet are so stubbornly ignorant on this. There are many peoples that one time called a place called Kievan Rus' home. Ukrainians are but one of them, and current day Ukraine is but a small fraction of that territory.
