„Likwidacja” / „Sotnikau” Wasyla Bykawa i cenzura na Białorusi

Abstrakt

The article compares the two versions of the novel Sotnikau written by leading Belarusian writer Wasyl Bykau. This novel was published in the Belorussian magazine „Połymia” (1970/11). First, author’s version, which was titled Lequidation, changed significantly by the censorship – it has been done about a hundred cuts and abbrevioations. The novel received another title – Sotnikau (the name of main character). As a result the Belarusian censors changed the author’s intentions.
