o godz. 12 w sali 200 Biblioteki Narodowej.
Wykład ten będzie poswięcony powiązaniu czytelnictwa z piśmiennictwem oraz sposobem formowania nowoczesnej tożsamości narodowej (na przykładzie litewskojęzycznych publikacji w Wilnie w latach 1905-1920).
The first two decades of the 20th century were an immensely import_ant time for the development of Lithuanian written culture and for the Lithuanian national movement. The modern standard written language had been – more or less – established, but there remained the task of building the institutions of modern reading culture: schools, libraries, bookstores, publishers, periodicals. This short presentation will look at the specific situation in Vilnius (Wilno) during these years when the building of reading culture went hand-in-hand with claims on the city as the capital of a future independent Lithuania.
