Research Projects:
Since 2019, a member of Lithuanian team of the international research project 'Philocophica Polonica Orientalia. Philosophy in Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth from 16th to 18th century and the Historiography of Philosophy in Poland, Lithuania, Belarus and Ukraine'.
The project is funded by the National Programme for the Development of Humanities of the Republic of Poland. The project aims at making sources accessible, describing, transcribing, translating and commenting on them, as well as commonly interpreting the history of philosophy in this part of Europe. Within the framework of the project, we are preparing a series of editions from manuscript sources and two monographs concerning intellectual geography and political theory. Coordinated at the Jagiellonian University, Cracow, the project brings together scientists from the following institutions: H. Skovoroda Institute of Philosophy, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Kyiv; Lithuanian Culture Research Institute, Vilnius; Vernadsky National Library of Ukraine, Kyiv; Library of the University of Vilnius; The Wroblewski Library of the Lithuanian Academy of Sciences, Vilnius; Institute of Philosophy, Academy of Sciences of Belarus, Minsk.
Intellectual life in the region was linked closely to the Polish and the Lithuanian states and their confederations starting from the Jagiellonian times, the Ukrainian and Belarusian states and other forms of collective identity. Thus, the project focuses on the relationships between philosophy and politics. The research covers a variety of regions, their institutional landscape and the different nation-building processes. We reflect on the following and similar questions: How did philosophers react to political problems, and how did they try to influence political life? To what extent did they maintain the Jagiellonian legacy in Poland, Lithuania, Belarus and Ukraine? Which arguments helped philosophers to criticize the Jagiellonian heritage? Which elements of the political culture of the Jagiellonian period made their way into the political and cultural narrations of our countries?
Participating in the project consists of finding new sources, transcribing them and proofreading (if needed), looking for information on the lives and works of the philosophers, writing lexicon entries and articles to monographies, preparing publications of sources, attending workshops.
