Описание: Includes information on the famed architectural sights and places of pilgrimage such as the atmospheric Hill of Crosses at Siauliai, the Gates of Dawn and numerous churches of Vilnius. This guide contains unrivalled coverage of the five national parks of the country and tranquil coastal retreats including the Curonian Spit National Park.
The focus of this book is the unique socio-political and socio-cultural community of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania from the late fifteenth to the early seventeenth century. This ethnically diverse, multilingual, multi-faith, multicultural national space has had a great impact on the socio-political development of Central Europe.
Описание: Strategic Frames analyzes minority policies in Estonia and Latvia following their independence from the Soviet Union. It weighs the powerful influence of both Europe and Russia on their policy choices, and how this intersected with the costs and benefits of policy changes for the politicians in each state.
Soviet Religious Policy in Estonia and Latviaconsiders what impact Western religious culture had on Soviet religious policy. While Russia was a predominantly Orthodox country, Baltic states annexed after WWII, such as Estonia and Latvia, featured Lutheran and Catholic churches as the state religion. Robert Goeckel explores how Soviet religious policy accommodated differing traditions and the extent to which these churches either reflected nationalist consciousness or offered an opportunity for subversion of Soviet ideals. Goeckel considers what negotiating power these organizations might have had with the Soviet state and traces differences in policy between Moscow and local bureaucracies.
Based on extensive research into official Soviet archives, some of which are no longer available to scholars, Goeckel provides fascinating insight into the relationship between central political policies and church responses to those shifting policies in the USSR. Goeckel argues that national cultural affinity with Christianity remained substantial despite plummeting rates of religious adherence. He makes the case that this affinity helped to provide a diffuse basis for the eventual challenge to the USSR. The Singing Revolution restored independence to Estonia and Latvia, and while Catholic and Lutheran churches may not have played a central role in this restoration, Goeckel shows how they nonetheless played harmony.

Описание: Deals with the spatial concepts of Lithuania and other geo-images that either "competed" in the nineteenth century with the term Lithuania or were of a different taxonomic level (Samogitia, Prussia`s Lithuania, Lithuania Minor, Poland, etc.). The Russian, Lithuanian, Polish, Belarusian, Jewish, and German geo-images of this territory are analyzed in separate chapters of this volume.
Описание: Explores the spatial concepts that two erstwhile neighboring cultures, Lithuanian and German, once associated with one physical space - a Lithuanian region in Prussia. Covering a period of five centuries, the author explores how, when, and, most importantly, why these concepts have been developed and transformed, regulating the spatial imagination of several generations.
Life doesn't ask us for permission and often, without any warning, it throws a situation at us that at the time, we aren't even sure we can endure.
Some of these challenges define us, some try to break us, but all of them give us valuable lessons if we take the time to learn them.
We can't control what may come our way. However, we can control the choices we make and the actions we take. This book is one woman's journey of finding her courage to go on when she was truly tested, and how she was able to overcome many challenges that could've broken her.
It is a story of resilience, self reflection, and an unshakable desire to live a Life Worth Living.
