ENThe social attitude of the Catholic Church in the Lithuania of the nineteenth century was determined by more than just the official position of the Holy See and the multiple traditions of Western European social Catholicism. This attitude was distinctly shaped by the socio-political context, the government policy in respect to the Catholic Church, and the Church's relationship with Russian, Polish, and Lithuanian nationalism. The article focuses on the expression of social thought in the attitudes of the Catholic religious direction of the Lithuanian national movement and analyses the expression and adaptation of the social Catholic ideas and the social teaching of Leo XIII as well as its transformation in the Lithuanian context of the end of the nineteenth century, i.e. in the illegal Catholic press. It is stated in the conclusions that the clergy, who had a positive attitude in respect to modem Lithuanian nationalism, transformed it to their own advantage in order to justify their social attitude, i.e. interpreted the innovative social Catholic ideas of the end of the nineteenth century and beginning of the twentieth century, which were operating around them, and the social teaching of Pope Leo XIII. An analysis of the classical 'workers' question' in the sense of Western Europe and the enumeration in 'Apžvalga' and 'Tėvynės Sargas' of the forms of the social effect of Catholics allows a model of the attitude of an active individual in society to be formulated and defended.
