"Belarusian Culture, History & Children" by Nancy Neal-Oldenettel, Director of the Seattle Children of Chernobyl Project I have visited the Soviet Union and former Soviet Union five times between 1990-1994 and, in so doing I have realized that there are some profound differences between the cultural values way of life and perception of this immense part of the world and those who live in North America. My grandparents were immigrants from the Ukraine/Slovak region during the 1920's. I grew up hearing the language and experiencing the culture and religion of this region through them and my mother. This is why I would like to convey to those who are interested in or who are hosting a child from Belarus for the Chernobyl children's health recuperation, some of my understanding from the inside. Though the children who are visiting look much like our North American children it is important to realize that they come from a very, very different world than ours. The land and people of Belarus (AKA - White Russia) as well as the other Slavic Nationalities have a very long history which is deeply connected to their love of the earth on which they walk. This earth in many ways has a soul which they are nurtured by and which they call, with all sincerity, the Motherland. The earth holds the remains of their parents, grandparents, great grandparents and on and on for generation after generation. The Belarus people were among the first to accept Christianity through the missionary work of the monks Cyril and his brother almost one thousand years ago. They were ahead of others in the development of the printing press and the Bible was printed by the philosopher and astronomer, Francisk Skarina at the same time that Martin Luther was active In Germany. The patron saint of Belarus, Euphrasinya of Polotsk, belonged to the ruling class during the Polish domination of Belarus. At sixteen years old she refused to marry and joined the convent with the vision that she would serve the real needs of the poor and needy of Belarus. She was a philosopher, geographer, an expert on world religions as well as a princess.

Country Ranks INDEX for Belarus History ... Feedback Belarus Culture http://www.photius.com/countries/belarus/society/belarus_society_culture.html Sources: The Library of Congress Country Studies; CIA World Factbook Back to Belarus Society Belarusian culture is the product of a millennium of development under the impact of a number of diverse factors. These include the physical environment; the ethnographic background of Belarusians (the merger of Slavic newcomers with Baltic natives); the paganism of the early settlers and their hosts; Byzantine Christianity as a link to the Orthodox religion and its literary tradition; the country's lack of natural borders; the flow of rivers toward both the Black Sea and the Baltic Sea; and the variety of religions in the region (Catholicism, Orthodoxy, Judaism, and Islam). An early Western influence on Belarusian culture was Magdeburg Lawcharters that granted municipal self-rule and were based on the laws of German cities. These charters were granted in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries by grand dukes and kings to a number of cities, including Brest, Hrodna, Slutsk, and Minsk. The tradition of self-government not only facilitated contacts with Western Europe but also nurtured self-reliance, entrepreneurship, and a sense of civic responsibility. In 1517-19 Frantsishak Skaryna (ca. 1490-1552) translated the Bible into the vernacular (Old Belorussian). Under the communist regime, Skaryna's work was vastly undervalued, but in independent Belarus he became an inspiration for the emerging national consciousness as much for his advocacy of the Belorussian language as for his humanistic ideas.

Belarus Europe CULTURE Belarusian publishing has had a notable impact on the region: Belarusian bibles were some of the first books to be printed in Eastern Europe, and the 17th century Belarusian poet, Symeon of Polatsk, introduced the Baroque style of literature to Russia. Modern Belarusian literature was born in the 19th century - Jakub Kolas is considered the classical pioneer, while Natalla Arseneva, author of Beneath the Blue Sky, is known as a paragon of 20th century literature. Local writers were stifled by the Soviet occupation, but the literary scene is now undergoing a revival. The country has a strong musical tradition and many 12th century Orthodox hymns and sermons had their origins in Belarus. Belarusian folk music is well known; don't miss a performance if you get the opportunity. Modern folk music originated from ritualistic ceremonies or church music, and became highly developed from the 16th century onwards. Belarusian classical music is a 20th century phenomenon, though this hasn't stopped the Minsk opera and ballet companies from earning international reputations. Belarus, like Ukraine, has always been a crossing point between Latin and Eastern Orthodox Christianity. Around 70% of Belarusians are Eastern Orthodox, but a sizeable Roman Catholic population (which dominates the clergy) has resulted from centuries of Polish rule. There's also a scattering of Protestants (a remnant of the once-large German population), Muslims (mainly Tatars) and Jews, although many of these are emigrating.
