The article analyzes the process of literary translation and the scientific study of Modern Belarusian playwriting in Poland of nowadays. The author notes the growing interest of Polish researchers and translators to the modern plays of the Belarusian writers. This fact is due to the success of Belarusian Drama Art abroad as well as with the development of Slavic studies in Poland, the advent of a new generation of researchers and translators. Polish researchers have noted that as a result of the Russification process in Belarus, the majority of young authors writes in Russian, however middle and older generations of the play writers prefer to use their native language. Most Polish translators and researchers (Andrei Moskvin, Agnieszka-Lubomira Petrovskaya, Carolina Niewiadomska et al.) are concentrated on Russian language drama in Belarus, but thanks to the efforts of Beata Siwek, Malgorzata Buhalik, Agnieszka Goral Polish readers have the opportunity to get acquainted with the works of Belarusian authors.

On the basis of the analysis of the letters of Vladimir Naklajev to his wife, Vola, the author con- cludes that the linguistic forms used in the letters serve the function of conceptualisation of the emo- tions of their author. In fact, they are an example of ego-documents that represent the self-perception and interpretation of a particular political event in Minsk in 2010, through which the Belarussian poet, Vladimir Naklajev, verbalises his personal accounts of himself, events and other people linked with these events in the Belarussian capital. It is worth pinpointing that the language of the letters has a specific emotional climate that changes in accordance with events, situations and people, to which their author refers. The properties of the linguistic code of the letters allow to understand them as texts that symbolise the personal senses of their author.

Belarusian literature is currently written under difficult circumstances, which, however, neither stimulates nor restricts its development. In fact it flourishes both in metro¬politan and provincial Belarus as well as abroad. The much repressed language, after a chequered history, survives mainly in literature and in the use by mainly young nationally conscious Belarusians for whom it may act as a socio-political statement. The history of Belarus as the main successor state of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania is inalienable, though disputed and minimized by some of the country’s leaders whose historical consciousness begins with World War II or even later. Most writers who left the country in voluntary or involuntary exile have gained new created energy, though the Belarusian Free Theatre would gladly return, were circumstances different. Whatever its difficulties, Belarusian culture re-mains strong.

Speaking about Belarusian literature in Poland we focus on fiction, its translation into Polish and the study of literature. The existence of the Belarusian literature in Poland in the post-war period is indicated by the following bibliographies: a bibliography of translations for the period 1945–1994 (G. Charytoniuk, Literatura białoruska w Polsce. Bibliografia przekładów za lata 1945–1994, Białystok 1996) and a subject bibliography for the period 1945–1998 (G. Charytoniuk, Polskie białorutenika literackie. Bibliografia przedmiotowa 1945–1998, Białystok 1998). The new political, economical and social conditions in Poland after 1989 have had an influence on the situation of the Belarusian literature. In addition to the existing departments some new university departments and scientific branches have been organized. Their aim is to realize new scientific projects connected with the Belarusian literature in Poland and Belarus. A lot of nongovernment organizations (funds, partnerships, associations) have been organized not only in Bialystok region, but also in the other parts of the country. A new publishing market has been established which has focused on the modern literature of Central and Eastern Europe including Belarusian literature. The Internet also plays an important role in popularization of the Belarusian literature. That literature has been included in the database of the National library (Przewodnik Bibliograficzny, Bibliografia Zawartości Czasopism), regional libraries (Bibliografia województwa podlaskiego) and the digital library (Polska Bibliografia Literacka). The information is searched by institutional scientific depositories and digital libraries. The considerable part of the information has not been registered in the bibliographic database. In this situation it is necessary to develop an integral literature bibliographic database of the Belarusian literature in Poland.

For more than a half-century (its first issue was published in 1956), Studia Universitatis Babeş-Bolyai Philologia has run continuously, acquiring national and international prestige. Its fields of interest – literary and linguistic research, together with ethnology, poetics, etc. – have attracted many contributors, the great majority of them from Romania and Europe.
The publication’s thematic diversity attracted appreciation from many academic environments: European (especially Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Norway, Sweden, Hungary, Czech Republic, Poland, and Russia), American and, recently, Japanese and Korean, which has lead to an increase in the number of external partners in charge of coordinating thematic issues.
Studia Universitatis is presently enjoying higher visibility in the academic circles thanks to the quality of the published material and the activity of the review committee (both domestic and foreign) who evaluate the contributions from authors and coordinators of thematic issues.
After the CNCSIS evaluation in 2005 all issues were published entirely in foreign languages, mainly in English, French and German, but also in Spanish, Italian, Norwegian and Japanese.
The editorial board have included personalities representative for the new fields of research towards which the publication is expanding. The editorial team, as well as the ISI reviewers, believe that linguistic diversity acts as a guarantee for global visibility for Studia Universitatis Babeş-Bolyai Philologia.

In the article, the problem of truth in poetic works of Jan Czykwin has been taken into consideration. The adopted research perspective refers self-evidently to philosophical concept of Jozef Tischner presented in work titled The Philosophy of Drama. Philosophical inspirations taken from phenomenology, existentialism, hermeneutics and dialogues are crucial to understanding the phenomenon of man. Philosophical anthropology suggested in this book assumes that man is a dramatic being, whose tragedy takes place in space of good and evil. The character of Jan Czykwin’s poems is a man seeking to decode the mystery of life, to find spiritual firstfruits hidden in matter and being a cause of everything that is discernible by the senses. He is trying to reach to the mystery of transgression, to observe the time of the transition from life to death.

This article is about the symbolism of the Light and Sun in the poetry of Aleś Barski, Jan Czykwin and Nadzieja Artymowicz, who belong to the Belarusian Literary Association “Belavezha”. From theoretical arguments the author proceeds to the analysis of selected poems, and concludes that symbolism of the Light and Sun in this poetry is almost always associated with the spiritual and divine. Personal experience is linked with the history and philosophy whereas the physical world is connected with the spiritual world.
