Artūras Dubonis

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Artūras Dubonis (born July 23, 1962 in Vilnius) is a Lithuanian historian and Doctor of Humanities who works at the Lithuanian Institute of History.[1][2] His main research interests are: Lithuanian Metrica research and publishing, Lithuanian history sources, Lithuanian society in the 13th–16th centuries, Lithuanian foreign policy in the 13th century and the first half of the 14th century.[1][2]

Dubonis is known for criticism of Litvinism and Litvinistic theories by Belarusian historians such as Mikola Yermalovich and Alexander Kravtsevich [be] which he describes as having nothing in common with the science of history.[3][4] Dubonis also denies that Novogrudok was once the capital of Lithuania and describes this theory as "parasitic in Belarusian historiography" and "allegedly scientific".[5]
