Melno taika – tai Lietuvos Didžiosios Kunigaikštystės (LDK) ir Lenkijos karalystės taikos sutartis, sudaryta 1422 m. rugsėjo 27 d. su Vokiečių ordino atstovais prie Melno ežero, Vyslos dešiniajame krante, netoli Oso upės. Ji apibrėžė Lietuvos vakarinę sieną su Vokiečių ordinu, kurią vėliau pripažino Prūsijos kunigaikštystė, po jos – Vokietija ir dar vėliau – Rusijos Federacija. Ja remtasi atkuriant ir delimituojant Lietuvos Respublikos sienas XX a. pabaigoje. Bendraautorių kolektyvas parengė monografiją Melno taikos fenomenas, kuria siekiama keleto tikslų.
The Peace of Melno is a peace treaty that was concluded between the Grand Duchy of Lithuania (hereinafter – the GDL), the Kingdom of Poland, and representatives of the Teutonic Order on 27 September 1422 at Melno Lake, on the right bank of the Vistula River near the River Oso. Lithuania’s fortified western border with the Teutonic Order was later recognized by the Duchy of Prussia, followed by Germany and, most recently, the Russian Federation. This border was also used to restore and delimit the borders of the Republic of Lithuania at the beginning and end of the 20th century. A collective of co-authors prepared this monograph entitled The Melno Peace Phenomenon, which aims to achieve several goals: Firstly, to honor our ancestors – the creators of the Melno Peace Treaty – who, with this treaty and its successful implementation, drew a fundamental divide between the worlds of war and peace in the politics of Central Eastern Europe. After the Battle of Grunwald and the ratification of the Melno Peace Treaty, the GDL entered the geopolitics of Central Eastern Europe in the late Middle Ages and became an active player in the transition to the early modern period. It could even be said that the Treaty of Melno marks the end of the Middle Ages, because internal changes which were determined by the Renaissance and the Reformation took place in the Central Eastern European states, especially the Teutonic Order, the Kingdom of Poland, and the GDL. After the Melno Peace Treaty, many socio-cultural, economic, political, and legal events took place, the historical interweaving of which covers a significant period of time, but until the middle of the 17th century this peace was favorable to the development of security in Sūduva. It is no coincidence that in the first half of the previous century, Tudor Jones emphasized that the Melno Peace Treaty was undoubtedly an “ideal treaty” (Jones, 1930, p. 100–109). [...].
