A. She is not a historian, but writes books based on people’s personal experiences.

B. In Saint Petersburg, he taught in Zvantseva’s school, where one of his students was Marc Chagall. The painter de-scribed Chagall as his favourite. When told to do something, Chagall would listen carefully, but then he would paint some-thing completely different from the task.

C. The first Belarusian author to win the Nobel Prize in Lit-erature. She was given the award for the books that can be seen as a “monument to suffering and courage in our time”.

D. An ethnic Russian himself, the musician was inspired by Belarusian folklore. The more he explored it, the more fasci-nated he became with the richness and beauty of its sounds. He also recorded several Belarusian folk songs on the lyrics by Maksim Bohdanovich.

E. Hardly anyone did more to define a distinctive brand name for Belarus in the Soviet Union, than “Pesnyary”. “Pesnyary” were unique – they sang mostly in Belarusian and their songs became immediate hits.

G. He was one of the group of artists who formed the leg-endary Mir Iskusstva (“World of Art”) magazine and move-ment, educating the Russian public in trends, movements, and issues in the arts by magazine articles, lectures, and exhi-bitions.

H. Her most famous works are probably the 2005 “Voices From Chernobyl”, in which the author describes the 1986 nu-clear disaster by interviewing hundreds of people who lived through the event, and the 1985 “The Unwomanly Face of War: An Oral History of Women in World War II”.

I. In 1968 he founded the legendary “Pesnyary”. The band gained significant popularity across the whole USSR and was among the first successful and officially recognised Soviet rock bands.
