Magistro darbe nagrinėjamas Vilniaus kultūrinis gyvenimas XIX a. pr. Istoriografijoje retai kada nagrinėjama pati Vilniaus visuomenė, kuri dalyvavo miesto kultūriniame gyvenime, dėmesys fokusuojamas į konkrečias tam tikros meno šakos technines detales bei jų technikų evoliuciją. Tad, šis darbas yra bandymas pažvelgti į tai, kaip visuomenė reagavo, būdama kultūrinio gyvenimo įvykių žiūrovė ir aktyvi dalyvė. Vilniuje aptariamu laikotarpiu didžioji dalis renginių vyko miesto teatre. Čia buvo pristatomi naujausi spektakliai, koncertai. Teatras suteikė progą visuomenei pažinti profesionalų meną. Kita vertus, dalis meno gerbėjų turėjo progą pamatyti scenos meno kūrinius ir kituose miestuose, tokiuose kaip Varšuva, San Peterburgas ar Vakarų Europos sostinės. Šie asmenys dažniausiai tapdavo teatro scenos renginių kritikai. Jie rašydavo savo straipsnius į įvairius kultūrai skirtus leidinius. Šiose recenzijose pradėjo ryškėti ne tik kultūrinės minties progresas, bet ir kultūrinių interesų kova. Vieni kritikai palaikė labiau klasicizmui būdingą, dvarų aplinkos mėgėjiško teatro laikais populiarių scenos renginių tipą, kiti aukštino naujoves teatre, kurios dažniausiai buvo susijusios su XIX a. pr. sparčiai visoje Europoje plintančia romantizmo banga. Šie straipsniai skatino tiek scenos meno tobulėjimą, tiek meno gerbėjų gero skonio puoselėjimą. Labdara užsiimantys žmonės taip pat organizavo ne vieną kultūrinį renginį, kuris dažnai spaudoje būdavo liaupsinamas, nes pasižymėdavo prabanga...

Usually, their attention is focused on the concrete details and the evolution of techniques of particular art’s branch.

The biggest part of all the events during the aforementioned period of time took place in Vilnius municipal theatre. The newest spectacles and concerts were represented in there. The theatre gave an opportunity for the society to know professional art. On the other hand, the part of art admirers had had the opportunities to see the creations of scene’s art in the other cities, such as Warsaw, Saint Petersburg or Western Europe’s capitals, as well. These persons usually had become the critics of events of scene’s art in Vilnius. They had written their articles to various editions. In these articles started to emerge not only the progress of cultural thought, but also the strife of different cultural interests and tastes. While many critics supported more classicism type of events, which was popular during the times of manor’s amateur’s theater; others celebrated the novelties of theatre, which seldom related with wave of romanticism, which spread expeditiously in the whole Europe in...
