Summary/Abstract: Byelorussian Literary Association Bialovezha - the only such literary organization in Poland - was brought into being on 8th June 1958 in Bialystok. The literary output of the Association members is impressive. Over 200 books of poetry and prose, essays and literary critics, scientific monographs and translations have been published. In the output, which has persisted for over half a century, the affection for homeland is expressed. An attachment to home and family is one of the key experience and feelings which initiate the need of poetic expression. In poetry of Viktor Shved, Dymitr Shatylovich, Ales Barsky, Jan Chykvin, Michal Shahovich, Jerzy Bayena, Mira Luksha, Jerzy Buyniuk and others, this subject acquires individual features determined by creative personality of every poet and his sensibility to the particular character of the borderland culture.
