The article is devoted to the comprehension of the ideological and artistic searches of the forgotten poets of Western Belarus Petrus Hranit, Yulian Serhievich and Kastus Rahoysha, which were carried out within the framework of the leading lyrical and narrative artistic and stylistic current. The author reveals the involvement of the lyrical hero P. Hranit in the current problems of the West. Hranit’s involvement in the actual problems of the West Belarusian reality, the acuteness of his social view, the characteristic assertiveness, immobilisation of the poet’s poems, which revealed the objective nature of phenomena and processes, as a rule, connected with a specific chronotope, emphasises the variety of problem-thematic content, the elevation of the spiritual and moral world, the wide range of imaginative and stylistic pattern of Y. Serhievich’s work, in which the Christian religious idea was organically combined with the motives of the struggle against injustice and oppression. The poetry of K. Rahoysha emphasises the synthesis of elements of narrative and problematic, analytical writing, which was characterised by the author’s observation, the ability to notice and emphasise the individual, unique in phenomena and objects, to show them in movement and development.
