State and Culture: Encountering the 100th Anniversary of the Restored State of Lithuania

After the proclamation of the restoration of an independent State of Lithuania, Algirdas Julius Greimas, who was named a great seeker of meaning, in the autumn of 1991 has prepared a preliminary document titles “Pro memoria. The Issue of Lithuania’s Future Projection”, addressing it to the President Vytautas Landzbergis. Thinking about the future of the nation, he has chosen a format of private initiation. This preliminary vision, as though do not pretending, according to Greimas, “neither to a completeness nor a firmness of thought” could have become a meaningful national manifesto, “a premise for deeper reflection” that more than twenty-five years aspires to open up possibilities for new ideological changes.
