Contemporary Lithuanian fine art is the art based on certain principles of thinking, new approach to meanings and functions of creation. The progress of art is induced by talented artists and looking at the contemporary Lithuanian fine art one can see how often for artists it is important not only to express themselves in artistic creation, but also be the bellmen of the society and talk about important subjects. The historic myths are the part of the old world, which is present in our culture: literature and fine art. Art of the old myths is the memory of the cultures, verbal expression and tradition. The theme of myths in art pieces helps the artist to talk about the problems within his interests as free and individual interpretation of the myths is the peculiarity of contemporary art. According to the artists the good art is such art, which keeps up with the times and manages to exercise the effect on the spectator and convince him/her. That is why a good artist uses the myths as a tool in his/her creation and via such old myths he/she manages to talk about the topical issues of today. As the myths have their own polysemous meaning, they do not need rationalistic interpretation. It is interesting and most of all – suggestive. The symbols of myths help the artists to express their ideas in a more purposeful way and they assist the spectators in better understanding of the piece of art, which already acquires literary connotation. The content of the art creations... [to full text]

Nors emigracijos mastai į JAV iš Baltijos valstybių mažėja, naujausia banga – po nepriklausomybės atkūrimo, daug lietuvių ir latvių išvyko įgyvendinti svajonių į Ameriką. Visgi, ne vienas jų stengėsi kuo greičiau adaptuotis „lydomajame katile“ ir kuo greičiau tapti tikrais amerikiečiais. Apie lietuvių diasporą JAV, ypač rytinėje šalies dalyje, galima rasti medžiagos ir apytikslius skaičius, tačiau apie latvių išeivius duomenų ypatingai trūksta.Tad šiame darbe ir bus apžvelgiama lietuvių ir latvių bendruomenių veikla Los Andžele ypač po 1990-ųjų, išskirtinį dėmesį skiriant išeivių pilietiškumo, tapatumo ir švietimo klausimams. Darbo tyrimo objektas – Latvijos ir Lietuvos valstybių politika diasporos atžvilgiu, lietuvių ir latvių bendruomenės Kalifornijos valstijoje, JAV. Šio darbo tikslas – palyginti tapatumo formavimąsi po nepriklausomybės atgavimo Lietuvoje ir Latvijoje ir baltų bendruomenėse Kalifornijoje, bei pristatant išeivių tapatumo palaikymui kylančias problemas, atksleisti pilietiškumo suvokimą išeivijoje. Darbe iškeliami šie uždaviniai: pateikti baltų tapatumo formavimosi istoriją; pristatyti Lietuvos ir Latvijos vyriausybių poziciją išeivių klausimu, atskleisti pilietinės visuomenės svarbą valstybės gyvenime, pateikti baltų diasporos, kaip brandžios ir aktyvios pilietinės visuomenės, veiklos pavyzdį, supažindinti su diasporos mokyklų problemomis ir galimais išeivių jaunosios kartos ugdymo būdais, tyrimo „Lietuviškasis tapatumas ir pilietiškumo samprata Los...

At the end of the WWI the countries became independent, but due to the secret protocols of Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, burried their independence for fifty years. Consequently, many people migrated to the United States (and other countries), where they found their new home. The migration continued after Lithuania and Latvia regained their independence in 1990’s and still does. Though the Lithuanian communities in the Eastern part of the US have been analyzed by Eidintas, Kuzmickaitė, and Van Reenan, the Western part got less attention. The Latvian diaspora has received little attention by scholars, thus needs to be discussed in more detail. The object of the thesis is the policy of Lithuanian and Latvian governments towards the Baltic diaspora, the Latvian and Lithuanian communities in Los Angeles. The goal of the thesis is to compare the issue of identity in Latvia and Lithuania, and in Baltic communities in Los Angeles. The identity problems as well as the perception of civil society in the Baltic diaspora will be presented. The aims of the thesis are: to present the history of forming the Baltic identity, to present the position of Latvian and Lithuanian governments towards the diasporas, to portray the importance of civil society for a country, to present Baltic diaspora as an active civil society, to get acknowledged...

Tout au long de cette étude, j’ai essayé de connaître les relations qui existent entre les pronoms dans les deux langues cibles. Apres avoir évalué les résultats, j’ai abouti à plusieurs observations. Tout d’abord, il faudrait souligner que dans mon mémoire, comme c’était prévu j’ai fait la comparaison des phénomènes isomorphes et allomorphes des langues comparées, par conséquent j’ai établi les ressemblances ainsi que les différences du pronom français et lituanien. / Savo darbe atlikau prancūzų bei lietuvių kalbos įvardžių tipologinę analizę. Išanalizavau bei pristačiau esminius skirtumus bei panašumus. / In my work I did the typological analysis of French and Lithuanian pronouns.

Postmodernusis XXI amžius yra lydimas visuomenės transformacijų, apimančių naujas socialines, ekonomines, politines ir kt. konfliktines situacijas ir grėsmes, besikėsinančias į kiekvienos valstybės (visuomenės, atskiro individo) saugumą ir stabilumą. Nacionalinio saugumo objektai bei subjektai yra tarpusavyje susiję, o jų pažeidžiamumas stabdo darnią ir visapusišką šalies raidą. Todėl nacionalinio saugumo klausimai ir problemos turi būti traktuojamos ir sprendžiamos holistiškai. Šalies ginkluotosios pajėgos, kurių branduolį sudaro Lietuvos kariuomenė, yra integrali visuomenės dalis, atspindinti visai visuomenei būdingas nuostatas ir vertybes. Profesionalių, visapusiškai išsilavinusių, motyvuotų, turinčių tvirtas pilietines ir patriotines nuostatas karininkų ugdymas yra efektyvus bei veiksmingas nacionalinio saugumo užtikrinimo būdas, nes kovos dėl ekonominių, politinių, teritorinių ir kitų įtakos sferų buvo, yra ir bus nuolatiniai kiekvienos visuomenės palydovai. Nauji postmodernios visuomenės bruožai: nuolatinės transformacijos, globalizacija, informacinių technologijų sklaida ir modernizacija, viršnacionalinių struktūrų įsitvirtinimas formuoja naujus tiek visuomeninio, tiek karinio ugdymo tikslus, formas ir funkcijas, sąlygoja naujus reikalavimus šiuolaikiniam kariui, pvz., tokius kaip identifikacija ne su tautos, valstybės, bet žmonijos gynėjo vaidmeniu. Todėl karininkų ugdymas Lietuvos karo akademijoje yra kompleksinis ir sisteminis procesas – karinių, universitetinių...

But not less important part of his works (almost 40 stage settings for opera, ballet, drama plays) were done in 1925, 1929-1939 years in Lithuania – a country that Dobuzhinskii’s roots come from. Alas, the Dobuzhinskii’s Lithuanian period activity and artistic achievements are not well known abroad. Yet studies of his works in The State Theatre in Kaunas (temporary capital of Lithuania) wish to hope the comprehensiveness even in Lithuania. The author of this study discusses the main Dobuzhinskii’s works for The State Theatre in different contexts, reviews and artist’s influence on theatre scenography perception. Dobuzhinskii established main aesthetic ideas of World of Art society – revival of cultural traditions, neo-romantic stylization and retrospectivism. His art of stage decoration encouraged young Lithuanian artists to come out with their own ideas of all main components of a play uniting.

To determine the impact of the age, sex, and breed on the pig muscularity. Conclusions. 1. The highest muscularity within the weight limit 95-100 kg makes 53.1 percent, and at the weight of 110-115 kg the muscularity amounts to only 47.5 per cent. While the weight of piglets is increasing, the amount of muscles decreases but the amount of fat increases. It was established that at every 5 kg the fat thickness increases by 1 mm. 2. The weight had the highest influence on the piglets of the Landrace and Pjetren breeds.
