The aim of this article is to reveal the dynamics of the museum narrative of Jewish history in the contexts of Lithuanian historical culture in the period 1990–2020. Seeing the tensions between ethnocentric and polycentric, civic, civilizational models of identity in historical culture, the topic of Jewish history representation was chosen because of its complicated integration into the scheme of ethnocentric national narrative. The study shows that the museum representations of Jewish history are increasing in number and becoming more various in themes and forms. That was predetermined by the changes in the political conjuncture and public memory and by individual initiatives.

The goal of this article is to analyze the aims of history teaching (learning) in today's Lithuanian general education schools in the contexts of ideas that are developed in theoretical didactics. The article, in accordance with foreign literature, the existing Lithuanian history education programs and public debates concerning the problem of the teaching of history in Lithuanian secondary schools, tries to answer the following questions: What history teaching aims or orientations in general can be legitimate in societies at the junction of the 20th–21th centuries and why? How history teaching (learning) aims are defined in Lithuanian history education programs? Which of the history education (learning) aims are visible in the public debate of people who are not indifferent and who develop Lithuanian education policy and what are the exact reasons that cause the preference of these aims? How should the history teaching (learning) aims in Lithuania be valued in the perspective of ideas that are developed in theorethical didactics? The article begins with the classification of sources for aims (and the explication their legitimacy reasons) according to German history didactics specialist Joachim Rohlfes and Canadian researcher Peter Seixas. The second chapter focuses on J. Rohlfes's classification in order to ephasize the problem of recognition of sources for Lithuanian history teaching (learning) aims (which are cited in the programs of history education), their inter-compatibility and implementation. The third chapter mainly focuses on Mr. Seixas's concept concerning the identification of "gravity" directions in public debate and the implementation of the ideas in order to achieve the more diverse evaluation of the problems. The conclusions present research results and the remarks by the author of this article concerning the formation of the aims of history teaching (learning) in Lithuanian general education schools. ; Straipsnio siekis – istorijos mokymo(si) tikslų nūdienos Lietuvos bendrojo ugdymo moky­kloje analizė teorinėje didaktikoje plėtojamų idėjų kontekstuose. Remiantis užsienio autorių literatūra, nūnai galiojančiomis Lietuvos istorijos ugdymo programomis bei viešomis diskusijomis, skirtomis is­torijos mokymo Lietuvos bendrojo ugdymo mokykloje problemai, straipsnyje siekiama atsakyti į šiuos klausimus: kokie istorijos mokymo tikslai ar kryptys iš viso gali būti legitimūs XX–XXI amžių sandūros visuomenėse ir kodėl? kaip istorijos mokymo(si) tikslai apibrėžiami Lietuvos istorijos ugdymo progra­mose? kokie istorijos mokymo(si) tikslai iškyla Lietuvos švietimo politiką formuojančių ar jai neabejingų asmenų viešose diskusijose ir kokios šių tikslų preferencijos priežastys? kaip Lietuvoje apibrėžiami ar siū­lomi istorijos mokymo(si) tikslai vertintini teorinėje didaktikoje plėtojamų idėjų perspektyvoje? Šis ban­domasis tyrimas siekia: 1) istorijos didaktikos problemas sugrąžinti į nūdienos Lietuvos istorikų tyrimų darbotvarkę; 2) konceptualizuoti vieną esminių istorijos mokymo(si) problemų; 3) prisidėti prie istorijos ugdymo programų tobulinimo.

The goal of this paper is to reveal how and why the circulation of the same historical images takes place; whose values and, simultaneously, memory are conveyed through these images; what is the relationship between the audiovisual representation of the past and collective memory? The article states that manifestations of the visual stereotypes of Lithuania history in post-communist transformation period (1988–2004) are mainly based on certain cinematic tendencies. Historical films that are considered to be an adaptation of the national narrative cinematography have been predominant since 1988. This kind of narration is characterized by validation of history as a national value, formation of national identity and its stabilization rather than diversification and correction of the collective memory or the development of critical thinking. The current documentary material that is based on the understanding of history as a myth of the nation's history is not aimed at creating a new visual and verbal narration about the realities of the past, but rather at recognizing what has been said and made in the previous works.
