Established by Neringa Municipality in 2021, the winner of the Writer\u2019s scholarship, residing at the International Centre for Translators and Writers, was the poet and translator Antanas A. Jonynas, whose creative idea is to continue his work in translating the German-written poetry of Ludwig Reza into the Lithuanian language. The scholarship winner is very pleased and hopes that the scholarship will make a significant contribution to the implementation of his idea: \u201cTo have all the queuing works of Ludwig Reza in Lithuanian language is a matter of honour for our culture, and eventually the debt of honour to the first publisher of Kristijonas Donelaitis \u201cThe Seasons\u201d will be repaid. A significant part of the work has already been done, and the dedicated honorary scholarship \u2013 with the opportunity to work at the Nida Translators Centre \u2013 will be a great incentive for me. I hope that when I leave Nida, I will be able to present the manuscript of all the work that has been done with joy. It will be symbolic if this work can be completed in the poet\u2019s native Curonian Spit.\u201d<\/p>\n
For the competition, the creators were invited to submit a free-form application, curriculum vitae, examples of works and a description of the creative idea implemented during the period of residence. Applications were submitted by 11 applicants with very wide geography: Neringa, Palanga, Kaunas, Vilnius. Applications were received from Australian and American Lithuanians. Applicants \u2013 mainly writers and translators \u2013 have specific plans and ideas. In addition to writing or translation, some saw other forms of creation \u2013 photography, painting, audio recordings.<\/p>\n
The evaluation of applications took place in two stages. In the first stage, the applications were evaluated by a commission from the representatives of the library and the International Centre for Translators and Writers, set up by the Director of the Klaip\u0117da County Ieva Simonaityt\u0117 Public Library. At this stage applications were evaluated based on the creator\u2019s literary experience, publications, indicating his\/her creative achievements, as well as the artistic and cultural value of the idea to the Curonian Spit, its relevance and expediency, protentional continuity, expected results and dissemination. In 2020, Edmundas Atko\u010di\u016bnas, a resident of the International Centre for Translators and Writers, poet, author of books and theologian, contributed to the commission. We hope that this will become a beautiful tradition when last year\u2019s resident helps to evaluate and select a new scholarship winner.<\/p>\n
A thousand-euro Writer\u2019s Scholarship was established in 2020 by decision of the Council of Neringa Municipality and will be awarded annually for the programme of creative activities carried out during the residency, which consists of created, performed or otherwise publicly presented creative works to the Neringa community. The scholarship winner can choose a period of a creative residency at the International Centre for Translators and Writers from October to April.<\/p>\n
