The Legacy of Francysk Skaryna
Francysk Skaryna, a 16th-century Belarusian scholar, printer, and humanist, made an indelible mark on the world of literature and publishing. His remarkable achievement was the first printing of the Bible in the Belarusian edition of the Church Slavonic language, making it accessible to a wider audience and sparking a cultural renaissance in Eastern Europe. Skaryna’s work embodies the values of enlightenment, education, and the sharing of knowledge, principles that EHU holds dear.
The Vision
At EHU, we believe in the transformative power of education, just as Skaryna did centuries ago. We envision a commemorative sign that captures the essence of his groundbreaking work and the enduring impact of learning. Our goal is to create a commemorative sign that will not only honor Skaryna’s legacy but also inspire generations of scholars, students, and intellectuals to pursue their quest for knowledge and enlightenment.
Why Your Support Matters: Installing this commemorative sign is a significant undertaking, one that requires the collective effort and support of our global community. Your donation will help us turn this vision into reality. By contributing to this project, you are not only preserving the memory of Francysk Skaryna but also investing in the future of education and the pursuit of knowledge.
