Hidden Heritage. Tales of Belarusian Women. Volume 1

Attention! The ByProsvet initiative has been recognized as an extremist group in Belarus — it is dangerous to bring the book into Belarus

Volume Two

Belarusian history is like a treasure chest, hiding many secrets. It preserves countless names of those who significantly influenced the surrounding world. We want to pay special attention to active, creative, intelligent women, as for many years they remained invisible to society. But each of them is unique. May this book be a good guide for you: it will take you on an incredible journey and introduce you to the legacy that women have preserved over many centuries.

The first volume of "Secret Heritage" contains seven tales about outstanding Belarusian women who lived in different times – from the Middle Ages to the early 20th century. These women are rarely mentioned in school textbooks. Yet, they played a significant role in the history of Belarus and the world.
The book's goal is not only to introduce them through fairy tales but also to show that every woman is unique and can be different. Her purpose is not necessarily limited to the kitchen and raising children. She can govern a country, found a theater, heal the sick, participate in an uprising – and much more!
"Secret Heritage" is not just educational fairy tales; these are inspirational stories!
