Abstract
The article explores the life and work of the classic of Belarusian literature Yanka Kupala (1882–1942) who made a great impact on the history of Belarusian culture of the twentieth century. It addresses collections of his lyrics, such as “Zhaleika” (Hornpipe), “Guslyar” (Gusli Player), “On the Way of Life”, “Heritage” etc. and his poems, plays and journalism.
