Šokiuose įkūnyta lietuviškoji tapatybė
Lithuanian identity according to the dances

Summary/Abstract: The article, on the basis of phenomenological analysis of intentional structures that are embodied in the movements of dances and in kinesthetic experience, attempts to elucidate the traces of Lithuanian identity. The basic sources of this research are texts of the so called post structural philosophers — Baudrillard, Deleuze,Bardies, and Derrida — that are extremely sensitive to the question of identities and differences in European contexts. Lithuanian identity as one can judge from the sources that were kinesthetically analyzed in the article is hybrid. It includes the archaic cycles and polycentrism, the variability of baroque minuet, the ideal of the family of bourgeoisie, the soviet totalitarianism and the individualism of discotheque, and last, but not least — the historical finalism of the embodied Le Grand Reck, that in this case might be simply named Lithuania.
