  • Resumen

  • When people think of rebellion, they often think of guerilla warfare, rousing speeches and protests. But what about books? When the Russian Empire sought to "Russify" much of what is now Lithuania, the Tsar's forces waged a war against culture, forcing children to learn a Cyrillic alphabet -- and even banning the pre-existing Lithuanian alphabet from printing presses. Native Lithuanians from all walks of life responded by becoming knygnešiaĩ, or book carriers. Tune in to learn how this vast smuggling ring preserved the Lithuanian alphabet, and eventually won the war for a country's hearts and minds.

Check out the book How the Irish Saved Civilizatio

the premise of the story is that the Irish saved books or copied the content of books at times of course translating but all of that was preserved because other world powers did not feel that Ireland was worth invading and therefore their libraries were not destroyed
