ONUFRIY VOLYANSKY AND IDEAS OF THE ULTRAMONTANISM IN GREEK-CATHOLIC CHURCH IN GALICIA IN THE EARLY 20TH CENTURY
The article analyzes the life and ideas of the Greek Catholic priest Onufriy Volyansky which are an infrequent example of the spread of ultramontane ideas among the Greek Catholic clergy in Galicia. The author examines the role of Volyansky’s studies, primarily at the Faculty of Theology of the University of Innsbruck, in shaping his worldview. Volyansky’s public-journalistic legacy is also considered in detail, first of all in the church magazine “Nyva”, because there his views can be seen in the most detailed and clear way. As a representative of ultramontanism – an idea that put the interests of the Catholic Church first, rather than individual nations or any other – Volyansky strongly opposed the spread of modern ideologies like socialism or liberalism, criticized various anti-church ideas that gained popularity in the early twentieth century. He contrasted them with the idea of the Church and Christian principles’ dominance in politics, culture, and other aspects of society. According to the author, the ultramontanism of Onufriy Volyansky had no chance to become a popular idea in the realities of the early twentieth century. However, his ideas are not without significance, and also show the involvement of at least part of the Greek Catholic clergy in the main intellectual debates that took place in the Catholic Church at that time.
