Tautinio atgimimo lietuviškos spaudos istorija ir jos kūrėjas: subjektyvioji versija
This publication includes a letter from a literary worker of the Lithuanian national movement in Lithuania Minor, Martynas Jankus (1858–1946), to a professor of Baltic studies at the University of Göttingen, Eduard Hermann (1869–1950), written in 1929. The letter consists of a reply to a question from the linguist about the state of the Lithuanian press at the end of the nineteenth and the beginning of the twentieth centuries. The author of the letter characterized the publishing of the illegal press in Lithuania Minor and its secret transportation to Lithuania under the rule of Tsarist Russia. He wrote about the most significant literary and publishing workers and the problems of the publishing trade. The letter provides rich biographical data on Martynas Jankus
Naujausios knygos istorijos metodologinės tendencijos: nacionalinės ir tarptautinės apybraižos
About twenty years ago, Robert Darnton famously wrote about how books know no frontiers. Nevertheless, as the discipline of book history has established itself around the world, many comprehensive works on the research field have determined themselves according to the nation-state borders. As national needs have been recently fulfilled in many countries, international and cosmopolitan themes and studies have received a new kind of support. In a world marked by globalization, such a change in attitude seems reasonable.
Those book historians who hear the call must determine their research work anew and find new, interesting frameworks for their studies. What can they find? What possibilities do these new choices offer? The international approaches may offer new insights about the past, but do they also offer better chances to secure project funding and reach contemporary readers? Researchers in smaller countries, where local book culture has been more or less dependent on foreign contacts and influences for a long time, might question if the cosmopolitan attitude has ever truly been forgotten. A new methodological turn towards transnationalism and diversity might seem less relevant when looking for examples from the Baltic Sea region, where languages, cultural and trade networks, social systems, and even states have continuously changed. In the end, contemporary book history researchers do not only have to answer whether they want to follow new methodological suggestions but also what they want to seek when examining history.
The presentation discusses three topics related to the recent methodological trend that seeks to move beyond nation-states as the main object or framework of book history studies. First, the juxtaposition between national and international approaches is examined. Additionally, other concepts like "local," "regional," "domestic," "transnational," and "multinational" are conceptualized and compared to each other. Secondly, researchers should seek alternative defining frameworks: studies focusing on linguistic, social, or gender borders, rather than a national approach, would offer further insights. Finally, specific methodologies have been created for international history studies; comparative studies, studies on cultural transfer, and entangled histories all reveal different aspects of examined societies and individuals. They all belong to historians\u27 working tools.Robertas Darntonas prieš dvidešimt metų rašė, kad knygos nepripažįsta ribų. Tačiau knygos istorijos plėtra pasaulyje rodo, kad daugelio išsamių šios srities mokslo veikalų turinį lėmė nacionalinių valstybių sienos. Daugelio šalių nacionaliniai poreikiai jau buvo patenkinti, taigi daugiau dėmesio imta skirti tarptautinėms ir kosmopolitinėms temoms.
Globalizacijos sąlygomis pasaulyje tokia permaina atrodo dėsninga. Globalizacijai paklūstantys knygos istorikai turi iš naujo apibrėžti savo mokslinius tyrimus, rasti naujų įdomių studijų objektų. Tarptautinės temos leidžia naujai pažvelgti j istoriją, bet ar jos teikia daugiau galimybių gauti geresni finansavimą ir patraukti šiuolaikinius skaitytojus? Mažesnių šalių, kurių vietinė knygos kultūra ilgą laiką priklausė nuo ryšių su užsieniu, tyrinėtojai teigtų, kad kosmopolitinis požiūris niekada nebuvo pamirštas. Todėl naujas metodologijos posūkis transnacionalizmo ir įvairovės link yra beprasmis tyrinėjant, pavyzdžiui, Baltijos regioną, kuriame kalbos. kultūros, prekybos tinklai, socialinės santvarkos ir netgi valstybės nuolat keitėsi. Galų gale šiuolaikiniai knygos istorikai turi ne tik žinoti, ar nori naudoti naują metodologiją, bet ir ko ieškoti tyrinėjant istoriją.
Straipsnyje aptariamos trys temos, susijusios su metodologine tendencija atsisakyti nacionalinių valstybių kaip svarbiausio knygos istorijos studijų objekto ir pagrindo. Pirmiausia paneigiama nacionalinio ir tarptautinio požiūrio prieštara. Be to. aptariamos ir lyginamos kitos koncepcijos ("vietos", "namų", "regioninė", "transnacionalinė" ir „daugiatautė"). Toliau vietoje nacionalinio požiūrio mokslininkams siūloma ieškoti tinkamesnio tyrimų pagrindo. Kalbiniu, socialiniu ar lyčių pagrindu atlikti tyrimai gali pateikti naujų įžvalgų. Tarptautiniams istorijos tyrimams naudojami sukurti saviti metodai (lyginamieji, kultūros perdavimo ar susipynusių istorijų), kurie atskleidžia skirtingus tyrinėjamų visuomenių ar individų aspektus. Visi jie yra istorikų darbo įrankis.
Levo Vladimirovo darbų įtaka mokslininkams (apklausos metodo taikymas)
The main purpose of the article is to test the application of an open-ended questionnaire for collecting the data and the valuation of the scholarly heritage. The peer-review is a legitimate way of the assessment of the contribution into science by individual scholars or institutions. However, it is rarely conducted in a form of the answering to an open-ended questionnaire. The author has used the method to collect the opinions of Lithuanian and foreign researchers about the pasi, present, and future influence of Levas Vladimirovas works on the development of Lithuanian book bistory, book science, library and information science, or information society research. The data collected by this method was compared to the data that was collected to assess the significance of L. Vladimirovas works by other methods: bibliographic, bibliometric, funding allocation, biographic reviews, teacher-student genealogy, etc. The qualitative results collected by an open-ended questionnaire from l 8 respondents (mainly Lithuanian humanitarian and social scientists) were analysed using the historical categories of the past, present and future and the subject categories characterising the field of information and communication sciences. The results are comparable to the ones received by other methods. Besides, an array of opinions allows one predict the future influence of the scientific heritage, the emotional subjective responses provide data that is usually revealed only in memoirs. The case of L. Vladimirovas is a specific one as the people who knew him well are still alive, but they are not influenced by any factors that would accompany the assessment of a living scholar. Whether the method would be valid in the cases of persons diseased long-time ago also remains unclear
