  • Vainode and Vainode Parish
    Vainode and Vainode parish Informatīvs materiāls par Vaiņodes novada tūrisma objektiem 2016 At the end of the 12th century, the current area of Vainode Parish was situated on the south side of a Curonian land called Bandava. In 1253, Vainode became a part of the Bishopric of Courland, which then changed to the District of Piltene in 1585, and subsequently to the Courland Governorate of the Russian Empire in 1795. Development of Vainode began along with the construction of the Liepaja- Mazeikiai railway line in 1871. At the end of the 19th century, the land of Vainode Manor near Vainode Railway Station turned into a village which was mostly populated by the brickkiln and sawmill workers, while the nearby land of Lielbata Manor turned into a village of summer cottages. In 1912, construction work of one of the largest military airbases in the Baltic States was launched. During the independence period this was one of the cradles of aviation in Latvia. During World War I, German forces built two airship hangars next to the aerodrome which were dismantled and taken to Riga (now the home of Riga Central Market) in the 1920s, 16 hangars still remain at the aerodrome as well as 1800 m of a once 2500 m long runway. In the 1930s, Vainode was also known as a resort destination with very clean air. Vainode was the home of a sanatorium for state officials, mother and child care center as well as tuberculosis hospital. Vainode was occupied by the Red Army during World War II on 9 October 1944.

    ESUKA – JEFUL 2017, 8–1: 41–59 INSIGHT INTO THE CITY/TOWN NAMES OF LATVIA Laimude Balode University of Helsinki, University of Latvia Abstact. The origin of place names is a research topic for linguists (or onomasticians) and geographers, but since ancient times a wide range of people have also been inter- ested in the subject. As Latvia is the closest neighbour to both Lithuania and Estonia, they share, to a large extent, a common history, as well as – because of this fact – a number of borrowed common words and names. This article is based on the toponym- ical material included in the short dictionary of Latvian geographical names entitled “No Abavas līdz Zilupei” (“From Abava to Zilupe. The origin of Latvian geographical names”), which was compiled by Laimute Balode and Ojārs Bušs and published in Rīga in 2015. It offers insights into the contemporary situation of Latvian oikonyms as well as providing comparisons of the names of inhabited places with their historical names. Keywords: onomastics, place names, Latvia DOI: https://doi.org/10.12697/jeful.2017.8.1.03 1. Introduction Today, Latvia has 9 cities and 67 towns (N=76) with town privi- leges. Naturally there are ancient cities, such as Rīga; founded in 1201, it has had town privileges since 1225. Other examples include Valmiera and Cēsis, which were granted town privileges in 1323, and Aizpute, Kuldīga, Ventspils, which were granted town status in 1378. In addition, Ludza was recorded in historical annals as early as in 1173, but town privileges were not granted until 1777. Then we must also consider the newest towns of Latvia: Jūrmala has been recognised as a town since 1956 and several inhabited places – Aknīste, Cesvaine, Ķegums, Pāvilosta, Saulkrasti, Seda, Stende, and Vangaži – were adjudged as towns in the first years of the second independence – from 1991.

  • Missions in and from Latvia Particulary Youth with a Mission During 1988 – 2008
    MISSIONS IN AND FROM LATVIA PARTICULARY YOUTH WITH A MISSION DURING 1988 – 2008 Submitted to fulfill the thesis requirement for a Bachelor’s Degree University of the Nations College/Faculty of Christian Ministries Kristina Ecis April 2009 ii KRISTINA ECIS has successfully passed the thesis requirements for the completion of the Bachelor’s Thesis. Thesis Committee: _______________________________ Date: ____________ Thesis Advisor _______________________________ Date: ____________ Committee Member iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS To YWAM Latvia founders Maris and Judite Dzelzs, who have showed great example of obedience to God and created a platform for missions; to my pastor Erberts Bikše, who was first to encourage and support me in missions; to my mother Laimdota Kalna, who was willing to release me to ministry in YWAM, even though that was a strange and unknown concept; and to Janis, Peteris and Filips whose patience, trust and encouragement helped me to finish this part of the journey. iv ABSTRACT This thesis will deal with missions development in Latvia. The tentative hypothesis is that despite complicated history the Church in Latvia has been active in missions movement and that missions agency Youth With A Mission in Latvia has played a major role missions mobilizing. The primary questions for this thesis are - to discover missions development in Latvia during the last years of Communism until present day; - to explore establishment and growth of one particular international mission agency, Youth With A Mission (YWAM), - in Latvia and its influence on the Latvian Church and society; - and to look for new strategies for missions in Latvia and from Latvia for the next ten years.

    GA2013 – XVI Generative Art Conference Silvija Ozola Paper: SYNTHESIS OF NATURE AND ART IN LATVIAN CITIES Abstract: Natural environment of the Baltic seashore became a dwelling place for the people who settled there. A new functional environment was established by changing water and greenery systems and by creating architectural structures. The first towns in Latvia were set up in the 13th and 14th centuries. Design and structural layout of building was affected by presence of the hydrological basin – the sea, rivers and lakes, as well as masses of plantations. Planning composition of settlements was formed according to the characteristics of the relief - lowlands and hills, and other natural elements. On the 18th November, 1918 the independent Latvian Republic was proclaimed. Approach to urban development changed. Nature elements began to be included in the architectonic spatial structure of the cities. Pieces of art enriched the cultural environment. Synthesis of nature and art create harmonious environment and contribute to development of diverse planning and spatial compositions and their originality in Latvian cities. Sculptural works have enriched the coastal landscape of the Baltic Sea in Liepāja, the river and lake sceneries in Topic: Architecture Cēsis, Talsi and plantation structures in Baldone, Līgatne, giving artistic expressiveness and identity to the urban environment.
