520 |a The Adamovičs family originates from the village of Dundaga in Courland, Latvia. Members of this family have been working in Courland and other parts of Latvia as teachers. Jānis Adamovičs (1858-1930) acquired education to be a teacher in the Teachers Training-Seminar in Irmlau, Courland, and worked in the schools of Courland from 1877 to 1925. As was the tradition in those times he was not only a teacher but also the organ-player in the local Protestant churches where he conducted the choir and the orchestra. To show the merits of Jānis Adamovičs the elementary school in Stende where he had worked for a long time in 1939 was named after him. It was canceled under the Soviet rule in 1951. In 1975 the elementary school in Stende was closed down. His children became teachers, too. His son Ludvigs Adamovičs (1884-1943) studied theology at the University of Dorpat/Tartu. Later he worked as a teacher of religion at the 1st State Secondary school in Riga and became an assistant profesor at the University of Latvia in 1920 and in 1929 a professor. He was also the Dean of the Faculty of Theology in the University of Latvia (1927-1929, 1937- 1939) and the Vice-principal of the University of Latvia (1929-1931, 1933-1936) and the Minister of Education of Latvia (1934-1935). Ludvigs Adamovičs is also known as the author of scientific articles and books and among them textbooks for the education of religion. He specialized in the research of church-history and his research has not lost its relevance today. The professor Ludvigs Adamovičs was the first Latvian scholar to visit the archives of the Herrenhut Brotherhood/ Moravian Brothers in Herrenhut, Germany, where he did academic research (1928-1929) which he used in his doctoral dissertation "Church and Belief in the Parishes of the Herrenhut Brotherhood in Latvia" (1929). In 1939 the Scientific Research Foundation of the University of Latvia granted the resourses and he visited Herrnhut once more. He took part in congresses which were about religious subjects and international teachers' congresses. He was one of the organizers of the 15th International Congress for Secondary school teachers in Riga in 1933. In the summer of 1940 after the Soviet occupation he was dismissed from the University of Latvia. Under the Soviet rule religion was crossed out from curricula of schools and from the list of subjects taught at university ("religion is opium for the people"). Ludvigs Adamovičs had to finish his activities in the Latvian-Finish Association, the Riga Latvian Society, the Riga Rotary Club and others. His sister Valda Elizabete Zariņa (born Adamoviča, 1892-1979) worked as a teacher in Riga and in Courland and some years at the elementary school in Stende, where her father had worked. Their sister Vilhelmīne Ozoliņa (born Adamoviča, 1897-1979) worked as a teacher in Courland and was married to a clergyman. In June 1941 Ludvigs Adamovičs and his sister Vilhelmīne Ozoliņa with their families were deported by the Soviet power to Siberia where Ludwigs was shot in 1943 as a counterrevolutionary. The cousin of Jānis Adamovičs, a teacher and a writer, a graduate from the Baltic Teachers' Training Seminar and of the Teachers' Training Institute of St. Petersburg, Fricis Adamovičs (1863-1933) is also a well known personality. He worked as a teacher in Latvia, Poland and Russia. After the foundation of Latvia in 1918 he became a teacher in the 1st Riga State Secondary school, at the Teachers' Training Institute in Riga and part of the academic staff of the University of Latvia. Fricis Adamovičs is known for his textbooks in geography and natural sciences, he also translated from English to Latvian. His translations of works and plays of William Shakespeare are well received. He also translated works of the Russian best known fabulist Iwan Krylov, Russian poets Alexander Pushkin and Mikhail Lermontov, the German poet Johann Wolfgang Goethe into Latvian. The wife of Fricis Adamovičs, Ella Adamoviča (born Krauksts, 1878-1951), before the First World War was a teacher at Vilis Olavs Commerce-School in Riga where at those days Fricis Adamovičs also worked. In 1923 she became a teacher of English at the 3rd S econdary s chool o f R iga a nd l ater a t the Teachers' Training Institutes in Riga and in Cēsis. She is the author of the English textbook in three parts for elementary schools: "My English Book" (1935-1939). Fricis and Ella Adamoviči wrote poems. The teachers Jānis, Ludvigs and Fricis Adamoviči were awarded the "Order of the Three Stars''. Fricis Adamovičs received it twice (in 1926 and in 1933, as well as Ludvigs Adamovičs (in 1928 and in 1934). Other relatives of the Adamovičs family worked as teachers too, so they all made an important contribution to education in Latvia in the 19th, in the 20th - and as we can say - in the 21st century as well.
