Šatrijos Ragana
Šatrijos Ragana ("Witch of Šatrija") was the pen name of Marija Pečkauskaitė (March 8, 1877 – July 24, 1930), a Lithuanian humanist and romantic writer and educator. Her most successful works are ''Sename dvare'' (''In the Old Estate'', 1922) and ''Irkos tragedija'' (''Tragedy of Irka'').
==Biography==
Born in Medingėnai, Kovno Governorate to a family of petty Lithuanian nobles, Pečkauskaitė was raised in Polish culture. However, she made friends with local Lithuanian peasants and, influenced by her tutor Povilas Višinskis, joined the Lithuanian National Revival.〔 Because of poor health and expensive tuition, Pečkauskaitė did not graduate from a gymnasium in Saint Petersburg and had to complete her education privately in Labūnava estate near Užventis.〔 Višinskis translated her first works, written in Polish, into Lithuanian and published in liberal Lithuanian periodicals, such as ''Varpas'' and ''Ūkininkas''.〔 However, Pečkauskaitė disagreed with their secular agenda and turned to pro-Catholic ''Tėvynės sargas'' and similar newspapers.〔 After her father's death in 1898, the family moved to Šiauliai as the old estate had to be sold for debts.〔 In 1905 she received a scholarship from ''Žiburėlis'' society, established by Gabrielė Petkevičaitė-Bitė, to study pedagogy at the University of Zurich and University of Fribourg.〔 While studying, she met with Friedrich Wilhelm Foerster and was greatly affected by his views on education; she later translated several of his works into Lithuanian.〔 After returning to Lithuania in 1907, Pečkauskaitė briefly stayed in Šaukotas and Vilnius.〔 In 1909 she was hired as a teacher at a girls' school in Marijampolė. In 1915 she moved to Židikai, where she spent her remaining life working as a teacher. She was actively involved in town's cultural life, promoting teetotalism, organizing youth chorus, and other charity work.〔 For her achievements in pedagogy, Pečkauskaitė was awarded honorary degree of the University of Lithuania in 1928.〔 She died in Židikai.
