Summary/Abstract: This article has two aims: 1. to thank the reviewers of the two-volume publication Brasławszczyzna, memory and the present for their careful study of the texts and glossaries included in it, for eliciting and emphasizing methodological, theoretical and material merits, and revealing some of its shortcomings. 2.
