Atskirai nagrinėjama, kaip buvo sprendžiamas bajorijos dalyvavimo modernios lietuvių tautos kūrimo procese klausimas „Aušros“ (1883-1886) leidimo metais, politiniu lietuvių tautinio judėjimo raidos tarpsniu.

ENThis study discusses questions of the following scope: why and what kind of perspective on the place of nobility in the modern Lithuanian nation was shaped by modern Lithuanian nationalism (rather by its different ideological streams); why and how has this perspective changed in the late nineteenth - early twentieth centuries; why and how important for Lithuanian intelligentsia was to include nobility into the modern Lithuanian nation. This research, belonging to the field of study of nationalism, commences with the analysis of ideological provisions of Lithuanian nationalism, developed in the years of publication of the Aušra magazine (1883-1886), when for the first time through the use of means of public communication the ideological foundations of modern Lithuanian nationalism were started to be shaped, and the idea about the necessity to consider the nobility a composite part of the modern Lithuanian nation was raised. A separate analysis explores how the question of nobility taking part in the creation of modern Lithuanian nation was resolved, when political phase of the development of Lithuanian national movement began. The second and third chapters of this study seek to find out what systems of meaning were created by the editors of the Litwa (Lithuania) newspaper (1908-1914, Vilnius), who were raising the objective of “returning” the nobility into Lithuanian nation. The fourth chapter attempts to reveal not only how were the attitudes of the newspaper appreciated by Polish, and partly by Belarussian, ideologists of the national movements, but also how much, why and how the idea of integration of nobility into modern Lithuanian nation was supported by different parties and fractions of modern nationalism in the years of publication of the Litwa.
