The National Education Agency (NEA) has structured the essay portion of the recent examination by dividing and assigning various literary topics to all candidates, from which students must select one. The available options cover diverse literary forms and thematic focuses. For an extensive course, students can choose an interpretation of a literary text.
One option involves analyzing Jurgis Savickis’s “The Vagabond,” requiring students to share their impressions following the Lithuanian language final exam. Another choice is the interpretation of a short story by Giedrė Kazlauskaitė, “The Shepherd,” where a possible area of focus is the test of humanity. For poetry, candidates may select an interpretation of a poem, which could explore the evolving relationship between an individual and their environment.
Furthermore, a specific problem question is presented for consideration. One such topic, derived from Vytautas V. Landsbergis’s “Alina,” prompts discussion on the question: “How do people behave in the face of evil?”
These diverse topics ensure a comprehensive assessment of the students’ literary understanding.
The examination structure requires students to engage in deep interpretation across various genres, ranging from narrative prose to poetry, while addressing complex ethical themes. The NEA’s assignment of these specific topics guides the scope of the required academic output for the exam session.
