The paraliturgical songs of Greek‑Catholics in the Carpathians are a powerful testimony to the cultural‑religious memory of this community. The most convincing proof of their religious and cultural integrity is the fact that they spontaneously and memorably sing and recite the prescribed prayers, liturgical texts and the relevant parts of the services. Even in the creation and use of paraliturgical hymns, they concentrate on emphasizing their own cultural integrity and awareness. Folk religiosity is evident in a number of paraliturgical songs in which fasting and penitence are depicted. The study is materially limited to Cyrillic manuscript song collections from the 18th and 19th centuries, which are related to the environment of eastern Slovakia. The paraliturgical songs of the pre‑Lenten and Lenten period among Greek Catholics in the Carpathian Mountains are dominated not only by the Biblical stories of the Publican and the Pharisee, of the Prodigal Son, of the terrible or Last Judgment, of the expulsion of Adam and Eve from Paradise, of Christ’s Passion and entombment, but also, and above all, by the vivid folk understanding of the value of returning to God’s embrace.
