The Face

The Mighty [-_-]

So begins "The Face", narrative poem written in 1798 by Baltic region poet, Caesim Māukiņš Stikuts. The poem (a milestone of European romanticism) as a whole is now considered to be lost, but it had to be a powerful poetry, as it inspired the first wave of Spring of Nations in early XIXth century and inspired existence of paramilitary militia force, named after the poem and thus known as The Face. Drawing inspiration from the poem describing mysterious and powerful being, "The Face" (a symbolical embodiment of rising strength of surpressed nations as well as the force that will put the tyrants to justice), certain men (initially led by author himself, who successfuly called young, idealistic bourgeois circles to take arms) created this independent troop to fight all across the Europe, wherever the old tyranny was challenged by the refreshing winds of freedom blowing from France. Sadly ignored by modern historical research, The Face played a considerable role in every stage of Napoleonic era.
