Summary / Abstract:

ENThe phenomenon of cross-crafting in Lithuania is so complex that only someone who does not grasp this could attempt to explain it in a simple manner. How did some of the last heathens of Europe become the nation of crosses in the nineteenth century? Ironically, at least at first, the zealous crafting of distinctive crosses could have been an expression of a silent protest against an imposed faith. [Extract, p. 68]
