Narbutas graduated from the University of Wilno (Vilnius) in 1803. His nine-volume work on the history of Lithuania (Wilno, 1835–41) was written from a feudal-monarchist standpoint. Narbutas was a collector of Lithuanian antiquities and folklore. He published sources on the history of Lithuania: the Chronicle of Bychowiec (Wilno, 1846). His works helped popularize the study of history in Lithuania and were highly important for the development of Lithuanian culture in the 19th century.
