Jurka Vićbič (Belarusian: Юрка Віцьбіч, also known as Yurka Vitsbich and Jury Stukalicz, Belarusian: Юры Стукаліч; 15 June 1905 – 6 January 1975) was a pen name of Sierafim Ščarbakoŭ (Belarusian: Серафім Шчарбакоў), a Belarusian writer, publicist and a prominent member of the Belarusian diaspora.
Vićbič was born in Vieliž, Viciebsk Province of the Russian Empire into the family of an Orthodox Priest. He graduated from a teaching college and started writing in the late 1920s. In 1929 his first work appeared in Uzvyšša [be-tarask; eo] (Belarusian: Узвышша (High Ground)), a literary journal which was published between 1927 and 1931 in Soviet Belarus, followed by his books The Death of Irma Lajming (Belarusian: Сьмерць Ірмы Лаймінг) in 1932 and The Formula of Bones’ Resistance (Belarusian: Формула супраціўленьня касьцей) in 1937.[1]
However, his work L'Shana Haba'ah B'Yerushalayim (Hebrew: לשנה הבאה בירושלים, lit. "Next year in Jerusalem", Belarusian: Лшоно Габоо Бійрушалайм) was not permitted for publication in Soviet Belarus. Vićbič was accused of “polluting the Belarusian language with archaic words and Belarusian literature with fictional characters hostile to the Soviet reality” and ostracised for his “style which clearly differentiate[d] the writer from the cannons of the contemporary Soviet writing”.[1][2]
Life in exileedit
We will get there! (Belarusian: Мы дойдзем!), 1975
After World War II, Vićbič lived in Western Europe and then in the US becoming a prominent member of the Belarusian diaspora. He founded a literary society Šypšyna (Belarusian: Шыпшына (Wild Rose)) and launched a journal with the same name. Later, he was instrumental in the publication of another journal Źviniać zvany Śviatoj Safii (Belarusian: Зьвіняць званы Сьвятой Сафіі (The Bells of St Sophia Ringing)).[3]
In 1956 he published a book Nioman flows From Under a Holy Mountain (Belarusian: Плыве з-пад Сьвятое гары Нёман). Further books We will get there! (Belarusian: Мы дойдзем!) and Anti-Bolshevik Uprisings in Belarus (Belarusian: Антыбальшавіцкія паўстаньні ў Беларусі) were published posthumously.
Vićbič died on 6 January 1975 and was buried in the South River Belarusian Cemetery in New Jersey, USA.
