Vydūnas (real name Vilhelmas Storosta, Vilhelmas Storostas, or Wilhelm Storost in German, 1868–1953) was a writer, philosopher and a society figure of Prussian Lithuania, or Lithuania Minor. The works of Vydūnas in various cultural domains are underpinned by the commitment to foster a nation of conscious and free people capable of contributing as fully as possible to the strengthening of humanity in the global culture.
With his philosophy of humanism, Vydūnas stands out among the pioneers of the Lithuanian national revival. He strongly believed that the national spirit is a prerequisite for fostering humanity, which empowers the nation with strength that cannot be broken by any forces. In Vydūnas’ view, the development of a free, conscious and creative individual is inseparable from a man for himself, a man for the nation, a man for the mankind.
