description

The article is focused on a fundamental issue of the History of the University of Latvia - the origins and symbolic importance of the flag of the University of Latvia. A critical analysis is made about the complex history of the origins of the UL flag and its conflicting assessments among the academic lifetime organizations of UL students about its use on the November 18 march to the Riga Cemetery of Brethren, which erupted immediately after the creation of the UL flag in 1938. A comparison is also made between the original from 1938 and the copy of the historical UL flag from 1991, distinguishing the common and the different.
