Summary/Abstract: Two decades ago, a historian of literature, professor of Jagellonian Uni¬versity Tadeusz Bujnicki, whose family has its roots in the Lithuanian – Latvian borderland, in the publication “Znad Wilii” called the territory of the histori¬cal Grand Duchy of Lithuania a “forgotten continent” (zasypany kontynent). In this way he stressed a need for complex, often interdisciplinary joint stud¬ies of its unique heritage by Lithuanian, Polish, Belarusian and Ukrainian researchers. The collapse of the Soviet empire has made archival documents more accessible and state borders have become easier to cross. It has also brought some other advantages that could not be enjoyed in the past.
