Bia łoruskoś ć jako idée fixe twórczości Sokrata Janowicza
Belarussian Identity as an Idée Fixe of Sokrat Janowicz’s work

Summary/Abstract: This article contains reflections on methods of creating the Belarussian national identity by Sokrat Janowicz, a Belarussian writer from Podlasie. Belarussian identity is treated as a kind of narrative strategy, which uses the authority of historicism and the principle of difference (in Derrida’s meaning). The inspiration of these considerations are H.K. Bhabha’s views on Postcolonialism, described in The Location of Culture. The introductory part of the article shows a short description of Belarussians as a national minority.
