Images of Lithuania in the first half of the nineteenth century

ENThis chapter analyzes in detail what image or images of Lithuania existed in Lithuanian society in the first half of the nineteenth century, more precisely from 1795 to 1864, and how these images were affected by political, social, and cultural processes. Using Henri Lefebvre’s theory about the social construction of space, the chapter mostly deals with the representation of space - the functioning of the image of Lithuania and the definition of Lithuania’s space in different communication networks.
