Šv. mergelės ir kankinės Kotrynos Aleksandrietės kongregacija gimė XVI a. pabaigoje Braunsbergo mieste (nuo 1945 m. – Braniewo, liet. Branevas), netoli Aistmarių, Baltijos jūros pašonėje, teritorijoje, kurios šeimininkai ne kartą keitėsi. Šiandien kotryniečių bendruomenė veikia ne tik Lenkijoje, Vokietijoje, Lietuvoje, glaudžiai su Baltijos jūra susijusiuose kraštuose, bet ir Brazilijoje, Afrikoje, Filipinuose, Haityje, Rusijoje, Baltarusijoje, o kongregacijos centras įkurtas Grotaferatoje netoli Romos (Italijoje). Iš viso kongregaciją sudaro apie 550 vienuolių. 1645 m. Krakėse, Lietuvos Didžiosios Kunigaikštystės teritorijoje, funduotas vienuolynas buvo vienas sėkmingiausių Žemaičių vyskupo Jurgio Tiškevičiaus projektų, tebesitęsiantis iki šiandien. Kotrynietės nuėjo ilgą istorinį kelią, ieškodamos savo tapatybės, skleisdamos Dievo žodį ir meilę artimui. Kongregacijos specifika – šalia kontempliatyvaus gyvenimo numatyta aktyvi socialinė – karitatyvinė ir šviečiamoji – veikla, kuri buvo vykdoma atsižvelgiant į laikotarpį ir visuomenės raidos ypatybes. Šios knygos tikslas – parodyti Lietuvos kotryniečių veiklą nuo vienuolyno įkūrimo Krakėse XVII a. pirmojoje pusėje iki XX a. pabaigos, išryškinti, kaip kongregacijos įkūrėjos palaimintosios Reginos Protmann (1552–1613)2 charizma skleidžiasi lokalioje bendruomenėje įvairiais istoriniais periodais, skirtingose kultūrinėse, socialinėse ir politinėse aplinkose.[...]. This study reveals the life story of the Lithuanian sisters of St Catherine in 1645–1988. On the initiative of the Beatified Regina Protmann (1552–1613), born in Braniewo (German: Braunsberg, Polish: Braniewo) the Congregation of the sisters of St Catherine Virgin and Martyr was established. In 1583 the first regulation of Regina Protmann was created followed by the second regulation in 1602. Alongside with the contemplative life, the specific of the Congregation is the active social, i.e. charitable and educational, activities. The main purpose of the monograph is to highlight how the charisma of the Beatified Regina Protmann unfolds in Lithuania, i.e. in a local community, at different historical periods, in different cultural, social, and political contexts. It is aimed at reflecting on how the regulation of Regina Protmann was adapted to the conditions of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania (GDL), how it was modified during the time of the Republic of Lithuania, and how much it changed after the Second Vatican Ecclesiastical Council. It was also aimed at revealing the main characters of this study, the sisters, their charitable and educational activities, their impact on the society, and their material situation. It has also been assumed that the study will help to better assess the specifics of the Lithuanian sisters of St Catherine in the context of the whole Congregation of St Catherine.[...]

Samogitian Calvary Hills is the Way of the Cross made of 20 sites, 19 stations in 19 chapels in the premises of Žemaičių Kalvarija town. “Samogitian Calvary Hills” is also the title used for a prayer book dedicated to walking the stations. This prayer book is used in Samogitia during the Good Friday and Saturday in churches and during funeral and commemoration of the deceased at home. “Hills” is a term used by Lithuanian Catholic Church clergy and editors of Samogitian folklore and religious books describing religious practice; it has derived from the title of the first edi¬tion prayer book published by Dominican monk Jurgis Kasakauskis in 1681. Afterwards “Hills” prayers and hymns were included in later prayer books. This continued until the declaration of the provisions of the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965). After the declaration of the provisions of the Second Vatican Council started printing a new versions of “Hills” prayers and hymns. This fact allowed noticing the problematic in change and expression of literal and musical texts of prayers and hymns in Hills prayer books. The problematic allowed formulating the research object – prayers, hymns, music and rites of “Hills” prayer books. Research goal – to analyse literary and musical texts of prayers and hymns in “Hills” prayer books and the origins of their music and rites, historiographic development and reasons for variations. The research validated the hypothesis that prayers, hymns and their mu¬sic in the “old” “Hills” prayer book are not created (except for intentions of stations and prayer “Let us pray” and hymns “Gracious Queen” [“Karalienė maloninga” – in Lithuania and “The most sacred Mother of Heavenly King” [“Dangaus Karaliaus Motina švenčiausia” – in Lithuania]) as it is stated, but composed and prepared prayer book on the initiative of Jesuit, Franciscan and Dominican monks based on calls, acclamations and hymns dedicated to the commemoration of the Passion of Jesus Christ in polish prayer books and hymnals during the time of counter reformation. It was newly edited and recreated by local priests and monks based on the documents of the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965).
