I'm proud of living in Byelorussia which has always been famous
for its people ДД industrious, kind, hospitable and friendly.
Byelorussia has given the world many famous people in all fields
of life. But I think the most outstanding figure of Byelorussia
is Frantsisk Skorina. He is the founder of byelorussian and
Slavonic book-printing, a scientist, a writer, a translator, a
doctor of phylosophy and medicine, a humorist. He influenced the
development of many branches of Byelorussian culture.
The ideas of humanism and patriotism of the Renaissance began
penetrating into Belarus and it was Frantsisk Skorina who
introduced them in Byelorussia.
The great son of the Byelorussian people, Frantsisk Skorina was
born in the family of a merchant in Polotsk in about 1490. He got
his primary education in Polotsk, and then learned phylosophy at
the Krakow University. In 1517 Scorina went to Prague where he
started translating and printing the Bible. He published 20
Bibles.
His genius can be compared with that Leonardo do Vinchi, Rafael,
Michaeclangelo, Thomas Moor. By the UNESCO desision his name is
included in the list of the most prominent scientists of Slovonic
culture.
