Rusalka Dniestrovaia: Ruthenische Volks-Lieder
(The Dniester Nymph: Ruthenian Folk Songs)
This collection is the first Ukrainian literary and folkloric miscellany published in Galicia. Its promotion of the vernacular as a literary language, its use of a phonemic orthography, and its orientation towards a pan-Ukrainian culture influenced national consciousness in Western Ukraine. For these reasons, the provincial censor had the book's sale and distribution banned in Galicia.
Gift of Dr. Mykola and Dr. Ragnhild Radejko, 1982.
