On June 9, the Department of Humanities and Arts at the European Humanities University invites members of the academic and wider intellectual community to the seminar “Arendt and Kafka” with Prof. Jeffrey Taylor.

The seminar will take place from 4:00 to 6:00 PM at EHU (Savičiaus St., room 303) and will be held in English.

The event opens a new seminar series dedicated to revisiting Hannah Arendt’s ideas through the historical and intellectual experience of Central and Eastern Europe. The initiative aims to create a space for dialogue and reflection on political thought, freedom, responsibility, and the contemporary European condition.

The seminar will begin with the presentation “Hannah Arendt and Franz Kafka” by Prof. Jeffrey Taylor (Department of Humanities and Arts, EHU), followed by an open discussion with participants.

From the fall of the Berlin Wall to Russia’s ongoing war against Ukraine, Central and Eastern Europe has remained at the center of Europe’s major historical and political transformations. During the Cold War, thinkers and writers from the region confronted the realities of totalitarianism with exceptional intellectual and moral clarity. Figures such as Hannah Arendt, Jan Patočka, and Václav Havel, alongside authors including Franz Kafka and Milan Kundera, explored questions of freedom, dignity, resistance, and moral responsibility under political repression.

Today, these questions continue to resonate with renewed urgency.

The seminar invites participants to reconsider these themes through the works of Hannah Arendt and Franz Kafka, while also reflecting on the broader intellectual legacy of Central and Eastern Europe and its significance for contemporary Europe.

The event is open to all interested participants. We invite you to join the seminar by completing a short registration form.

Swedish Cultural Day at EHU: Discovering Sweden beyond Stereotypes

On 27 May 2026, the European Humanities University (EHU) hosted the Swedish Cultural Day event, organised in cooperation with the Embassy of Sweden in Lithuania. The event was held as part of the “National Culture Days at EHU” initiative launched by EHU Rector Dr Vilius Šadauskas. The initiative aims to strengthen dialogue between the university community and diplomatic and cultural institutions operating in Lithuania, while broadening students’ knowledge of European cultures, academic traditions, and international opportunities.

The theme of the Swedish Cultural Day — “Sweden beyond IKEA and ABBA: get to know the neighbours on the other side of the Baltic Sea” — invited the EHU community to look at Sweden beyond its most widely recognised cultural symbols.

In his welcoming remarks, EHU Rector Dr Vilius Šadauskas emphasised that the essence of the “National Culture Days at EHU” initiative lies in direct and informal communication, opening opportunities to gain a better understanding of European countries, their societies, and cultural contexts. According to the Rector, such meetings contribute to strengthening EHU as an international academic community and promote open dialogue between students, lecturers, and diplomatic partners.

The presentation to the EHU community was delivered by Erik Ehrner, Deputy Head of Mission at the Embassy of Sweden in Lithuania, and Gustav Örnberg, intern at the Embassy. They introduced participants to the specific features of Swedish society, cultural traditions, and values. Following the presentation, participants had the opportunity to engage in informal conversations with Embassy representatives over coffee.

At the end of the event, symbolic gifts were presented to the representatives of the Embassy of Sweden: caricatures drawn during the event by professor Ilja Bereznickas, EHU lecturer and artist. This creative gesture became a vivid sign of the university community’s hospitality and commitment to cultural dialogue.

The Swedish Cultural Day at EHU contributed to the University’s broader objective of fostering an open, international, and culturally diverse academic environment, where diplomatic, academic, and intercultural dialogue forms an integral part of the student experience.
