ENLiterary criticism in 2000–2013 in Kaunas weekly newspaper of culture and arts "Nemunas" has some specifications: this newspaper attracts a lot of young people (mostly students of philology, so the paper could be characterized by vitality, youthful, courage etc.) or writers of Kaunas region, who write critical articles (that is the reason to name this newspaper of Kaunas). This newspaper reflects mostly the cultural life of Kaunas region, but in the recent years it has drawn attention to all the country’s culture (it is a clear orientation to Vilnius). In articles of literary criticism, some periphery signs can be observed: it could be named like the orientation to the centre (in this situation – Vilnius), some phrases in the public discourse also issue the peripheral sensibility (it is rather a psychological state than a real fact). The circulation size of "Nemunas" is almost the same as that of weekly newspapers of culture and arts "Literatūra ir menas" or "Šiaurės Atėnai" (they circulate in all the country and do not depend to one region).
