On January 1st is the birthday of J.Karski, here what Arnold McMillin
wrote about him in 1967:

"There can be no one involved in Belarusian affairs and, indeed, few
scholars in the Slavonic field as a whole unfamiliar with at least the
name of Jauchim Karski (1861-1931) who, championing the study of Belarus
in the field of language, dialectology, literature, ethnography and
palaeography, achieved more than all his predecessors and perhaps also
all his successors put together."

"...using the dialectal material for comparison with Russian and
Ukrainian he [Karski] proved in the face of contemporary opinion that
the Belarusian language was an original linguistic entity formed many
centuries earlier, and not just a dialect or corruption."
