In class historical processes are considered that occured in Belarus in the 1970's-1990's. There is also taken into account both the development of literature genres (especially fables and various genres of prose), the development of poetics (individual tendencies romantic, realistic, and modernistic), and the change in the perception of reality by contemporary artists. Much of the seminar is devoted to the dynamic development of Belarusian prose, in particular, there is discussed Uladimir Karatkevich's historical prose („Parom na burnaj race", "Czorny zamak Alszanski”), a psychological Vasil Bykau's war prose („Znak biady”, „Pakachaj mianie, sałdacik”), and based on facts, the prose of Ales Adamowicz ("Chatynska apowieść"), the sociological prose of Ivan Mielez ("Zawiei, śnieżań") and Wasil Bykau ("Abława"), the biographical prose of Alyaksiej Karpiuk ("Danuta"), Kastusia Akuły ("Hfrawatka") and the poetic prose of Michaś Stralcou ("Adzin Łapać, adzin czuń","Smalennie wiepruka","Siena na asfalcie"), dramaturgy by Alyaksiej Dudarau ("Wieczar"), poetry by Pimien Panczanka, Niła Hilewicz, Ryhor Baradulin, Jauhenia Janiszczyc, Alesia Razanawa. There is also taken under consideration the issue of a change in attitudes and understanding communism (critic of collectivization, the change of reality after the Twentieth Congress of the CPSU). There are discussed the changes taking place in the short forms of prose (fables and short stories), new themes emerging in the literature (environmental issues - "Lwy" by Iwan Ptasznikau, critical literature issues - essays of Mihas Stralcou and Barys Sachanka)
