Summary / Abstract:

ENThe essay by literary scientist Viktorija Daujotytė is dedicated to discussing the relationship between man and tree in Lithuanian culture, literature, history, and mythology - from the 19th to the 21st century, the metaphor of the Tree of Life is established in both Lithuanian folklore and professional art. We live more and more with a sense of the unsustainability of being, weakening trust in modern technologies, we feel the need to return ad fontes, to the beginning, to the sources, to primary things. To the ground, to the tree. So, what we have experienced from myths, fairy tales, speeches, pervades our time as well. We all have trees that are important to us, with which our relationship is special, personal, intimate. Stories about them belong to the field of our innate culture. What we no longer have in our experiences will no longer be recognised in innate culture. [From the publication]
