- Abstract
This review presents two books that are closely related. The study by Olga Mastianica entitled Bajorija lietuvių tautiniame projekte (XIX a. pabaiga - XX a. pradžia) [Nobility in the Lithuanian National Project (Late 19th - Early 20th Centuries)] analyses the projects of including the nobility into the vision of modern Lithuania that were proposed from the publication of the first Lithuanian newspaper, Aušra [Dawn] (1883-1886), until the beginning of the First World War. The other book under discussion is the diary of Mečislovas Davainis-Silvestraitis, edited by Olga Mastianica-Stankevič and Jurgita Venckienė. Davainis-Silvestraitis (1849-1919), who was engaged in the Lithuanian national movement in the second half of the nineteenth century, wanted to display by his own example that it was possible to "re-Lithuanise" the Polish-speaking nobility. He was the editor of the magazine Litwa [Lithuania] (1908-1914), which was published in Polish and the main audience of which was the Polish-speaking nobility of Lithuania.
