Summary/Abstract: The article deals with the writings of Sokrat Janowicz approaching them as a kind of identity narrative characterised by a twofold, complimentary function: consolidating the subject and maintaining the Belarussian ethnos. It is revealed that the narrative's cohesion and continuity, which writer confirms with his personal signature, become guarantees of the survival of Belarussian identity. The narrative space emphasises the places (Białystok, Krynki) that hierarchise and evaluate its constitutive elements.
