Given the fact that the songs are believed to be rather late, the study concentrates on the so far little investigated Shrovetide celebra- tion customs of Lithuanian nobility in the 15th through the 18th cen- tury and the urban communities in the 20th century with the aim of revealing their impact on the rural Shrovetide celebration and simul- taneously on the songs in question. The study shows their links with the Lithuanian nobility and the urban environments which fostered European traditions as well as the interrelationship between the folk and ecclesiastical festivals. Carnival in Europe and other Christian countries around the world, as evidenced by abundant written sources and its extensive cel- ebration to date, is one, if not the only one, calendrical festival of an agrarian nature whose vitality is predetermined by the ability of the festival concepts to adapt to the modernisation of the community life- style in different historical epochs, and the diversity of the forms of its celebration, by local features. The rural celebration of Shrovetide in Lithuania in the 19th to the 21st century was described in literary works of Lithuanian classic authors and in ethnographic studies and investigated by ethnologists, 1 In literature, the Latin form Samogitia is sometimes used to name Žemaitija. 8 SHROVETIDE IN LITHUANIA primarily by Pranė Dundulienė, Stasys Skrodenis, Arūnas Vaicekaus- kas, and Žilvytis Bernardas Šaknys, in the 20th century. The ethno- graphic material, accumulated in museums and archives, has lately been published increasingly intensively. The musical expression of the Shrovetide tradition, consisting of combinations of folk songs, instru- mental, or mixed – song and verbal – folklore, has been so far scarcely analysed from the scientific viewpoint. The totality of the published Lithuanian calendrical folk songs clearly demonstrates that the great- est attention of researchers and the compilers of publications has been devoted to the calendrical, including Shrovetide, songs of the eth- nographic regions of Southern and Eastern Lithuania, i.e. Dzūkija and Aukštaitija (LLD 2007; AKPT 2000; SJPT 2003; VRLP 2007; LPBS 2009). In those regions, the Shrovetide celebration traditions slightly differ from those of Žemaitija, the northwestern ethnographic region of Lithuania. The musical Žemaitijan Shrovetide folklore, i.e. the songs performed by the costumed procession characters, such as ‘beggars’, ‘Jews’, and ‘Gypsies’, or the songs about them performed by other characters, is playful and original, however, for different reasons, not investigated comprehensively and for a long period of time pub- lished just in a fragmentary way (Kriščiūnienė 1992; ČČ 1998; KD 1998; MR 2008; LPBS 2009). In 2010, the first collection of authentic folklore songs per- formed in Žemaitija during Shrovetide, Žemaičių kalendorinė tauto- saka: Užgavėnių dainos [Žemaitijan Calendrical Folklore: Shrovetide Songs] (ŽKT 2010), was published, while in 2011, the Folk Music Band Sutaras released a CD Ubagų karalystės monai [The Wonders of the Beggars’ Kingdom] on the basis of archival materials (Sutaras 2011). Those were the first attempts to identify the problematic as- pects of the genre of folk songs and, in a way, to rehabilitate folklore that for a long time had been considered as a marginal phenomenon. The preparation of the songs for publishing revealed some never be- fore examined aspects of the Shrovetide Festival and encouraged its deeper studies. The monograph Žanro virsmas: Žemaitijos Užgavėnių dainos [Transformation of the Genre: Samogitian Shrovetide Songs], Carnival Character Songs in a Sociocultural Context 9 published in Lithuanian in 2015 (Laurinavičiūtė-Petrošienė 2015), slightly revised and supplemented, became the basis of the present book in English. As mentioned above, the study aims to reveal the traits of that to a certain extent marginal genre of folk songs (the Shrovetide costumed character songs), the prerequisites for their formation, and the devel- opment. At first glance, the research object seems to be distant from the major cultural research issues; however, its content, transforma- tion, and the trends and stages of the development are closely related to the political, social, and cultural events that have been taking place both in Western Europe and Lithuania. The broad contextualisation of the research object as a cultural phenomenon takes it beyond the boundaries of the traditional and narrowish field of the rural culture alone, characteristic of the ethnological and folklore research,

Mokėsi Tau- jėnų pradinėje mokykloje, privačiai – Ukmergėje ir Liepojoje, 1893 m. baigė Palangos progimnaziją. 1896 m. buvo pašalintas iš Mintaujos (dab. Jelgava, Latvija) gimnazijos, nes kartu su kitais lietuviais nepa- kluso reikalavimui, kad katalikai kasdienę maldą mokykloje skaitytų rusiškai. 1897 m. eksternu baigė Peterburgo 9-ąją gimnaziją. Studijavo Peterburgo universiteto Teisės fakultete, priklausė slaptai lietuvių stu- dentų draugijai. Gavęs teisininko diplomą, A. Smetona 1902 m. atvyko į Vilnių, dir- bo advokato padėjėju, vėliau – banke. Jis greit iškilo kaip vienas akty- viausių lietuvių tautinio judėjimo dalyvių. Priklausė Lietuvių demok- ratų partijai. Buvo 1905 m. gruodžio 4–5 d. vykusio Didžiojo Vilniaus Seimo narys, pirmininkavo jo posėdžiui, kuriame svarstytas Lietuvos autonomijos klausimas. A. Smetona dalyvavo daugelio lietuviškų vi- suomeninių, kultūros, švietimo organizacijų – „Aušros“, „Ryto“, „Rū- ANTANAS SMETONA tos“, Lietuvių mokslo ir Lietuvių dailės draugijų – veikloje.

Smetonų šeimos butas Vilniuje buvo lietuvių inteligentų susibūrimų ir diskusijų vieta. Pirmojo pasaulinio karo metais Vilniuje pradėjusi veikti Lietuvių draugija nukentėjusiesiems dėl karo šelpti greit tapo ne tik labdaros organizacija, bet ir lietuvių politinės veiklos centru. Nuo pat įkūrimo organizacijoje dirbęs, o 1914 m. pabaigoje jos Centro komiteto vado- vu tapęs A. Smetona rūpinosi, kad kraštą okupavusios Vokietijos val- džios sprendimai kuo mažiau alintų Lietuvos žmones. 1916 m. kartu su Steponu Kairiu ir Jurgiu Šauliu dalyvavo Trečiajame pavergtųjų tautų kongrese.

  • Lithuanian Literature in 1918–1940: the Dynamics of Influences and Originality
    340 INTERLITT ERA RIA 2018, 23/2: 340–353 VANAGAITĖ Lithuanian Literature in 1918–1940: The Dynamics of Influences and Originality GITANA VANAGAITĖ Abstract. Lithuanian independence (1918–1940), which lasted for twenty- two years, and its symbolic center, the provisional capital Kaunas, have been very important for the country’s political, social, and cultural identity. In 1918, changes in the social, economic, and political status of an individual as well as transformations in the literary field followed the change of the political system. In what ways the relationship between the center and the periphery and the spheres of literary influences were altered by the new forms of life? Lithuania, the former geographic periphery of tsarist Russia, after the change of the political system became a geographical and cultural periphery of Europe. Nevertheless, political freedom provided an opportunity to use the dichotomy of center-periphery creatively. Lithuanian writers, who suddenly found them- selves living in Europe with old cultural traditions, tried to overcome the insignificance of their own literature, its shallow themes and problems by “borrowing” ideas and ways to express them. In fact, the imitation was not mechanical, so the new influences enabled writers to expand significantly the themes and forms of Lithuanian literature. The article examines the development of new cultural centers in inde- pendent Lithuania. It also discusses the avant-garde movement which emerged under the influence of Russian futurists and German expressionists. In addition, it focuses on individual authors, such as Antanas Vaičiulaitis, Kazys Binkis and Petras Cvirka, and the influence that affected their works. Keywords: center; periphery; literary influence; host culture Center and Periphery in Literature The word periphery translated from the Latin (peripherīa) means “a circle.” In turn, this Latin word is related to two Greek words, perí, which means “around,” and pherein – “to carry”.
