Lemko Identity and the Orthodox Church

The Lemko Region of the Carpathian Mountains of Central Europe has been inhabited by East Slavic people for centuries. For nearly as long, it has been the arena of intense ethnopolitical competition. This collection of sketches illuminates how Lemkos' reaction to competing nationalist pressures led them to an identity centered on Eastern Orthodox Christianity.
