Editor Giedrė Kadžiulytė: “Jūratė is a jazz philosopher”
“The news about Jūratė’s death is unexpected and shocking. This is a great loss for the entire cultural community, for the readers.
Jūratė reminds me of the philosopher of brilliant memory Leonidas Donskis; both, with their works and ideas, tried to unite the world in constant drilling. When they leave, only then do we realize how much they have given us, how much they have left, and how important they are to the metaphysics of our daily lives.
I have always wondered about the scope of Jūratė’s work, how much he did at one time. Both in education and research and in book publishing. And if philosophy is ever seen in our schools as a necessary part of studies, for the most part it will be to the credit of Jūratė.
I have now examined our intense correspondence exactly one year ago with the publication of Friedrich Nietzsche’s book Beyond Good and Evil. She wrote a final article for this publication. And soon he took part in the events of the Book Fair: one of them was dedicated to the memory of Arvydas Šliogeris, the other to Nyč de’s book. At that time, he had broken his leg and that did not stop him from attending these meetings.
It is regrettable that his own collection of essays “Fear of Drowning” has gone unnoticed and underrated in its day. It was only a decade later that it was discovered that he was viewed “unforgivably.”
Jūratė was not only the author of “Apostropha”. A talented thinker (especially not using the word “philosopher” here), able to connect philosophy with art, literature, film, speak stagnant statements, stimulate the imagination and thinking of the young person, take an interest, offer to look at things from a different angle, invites dialogue. A jazz philosopher, so to speak. One can only envy students as teachers and colleagues as excellent dialogue partners. “

Prof. Viktorija Daujotytė: “The connection between literature and philosophy was one of the essential problems for Jūratė”
“We carry the burden of compassion” is a line from the poetic treatise of the poet Česlovas Milošas, which today evokes the feeling I experience when I hear about the sudden death of Jūratė Baranova.
We were connected with Jūrat for some topics and exclusive attention to them. I am referring to the problem of the connection between philosophy and literature, literature and philosophy. I was surprised to see from what heights I was looking at these issues. He was also amazed at the energy with which he transmitted complex philosophical texts, as if they were his daily reading. It was this thought about the connections between literature and philosophy that acquired an authoritarian height in my eyes.
If it weren’t for Jūratė, we wouldn’t have a more detailed book on the writer Jurgas Ivanauskaitė. I am very grateful to you individually for that book.
Working hard, Jūratė managed to do a lot. But it is already true that the more man is made, the greater the realization that even more could have been done.
