N. Yasinsky in the last – Moscow-Minsk – period of his life based on the materials of the Belarusian archives. Revolutionary events of 1917–1921 forced him, like many other representatives of the capital’s intelligentsia, to look for work in new provincial universities. Since 1922 he has been teaching at the Belarusian State University, becoming one of the founders of Belarusian Medieval and Slavic studies. In 1928 he was elected an academician of the newly created Belarusian Academy of Sciences, where he continued his studies of both the Czech Middle Ages and the history of Belarus in the Middle Ages. However, external circumstances did not allow A. N. Yasinsky to create his own scientific school in Belarus, and his research of the 1920’s remained little known to specialists.

Nikolsky began to study ancient Phoenician history after the discoveries in Ras-Shamra (Ugarit) in the late 1930s. However, the preparation of a monograph on Phoenician mythology was interrupted by the outbreak of war. N.Nikolsky did not have time to evacuate from Minsk and continued to work on the text in the occupation. The final version of the monograph was completed during his stay in the partisan detachment. Shortly after the war, this "partisan" monograph was published. However, the author’s lack of access to the new literature in the war years turned into criticism of many provisions of the monograph in Soviet historical science, although all reviewers emphasized the courage of N.Nikolsky needed in order to preserve and prepare the text for the publishing in military circumstances.

VolkLevanovich. On the basis of previously unpublished documents, as well as recent historiography, the text contains unknown details from his biography (studies, military service, family), relations with colleagues at the university, interpretation by J. V. Volk-Levanovich of the causes of the conflict with J. Y. Lesik and other figures of the Belarusian national movement of the 1920s. The documents published in the article (memoirs, diary pages, letters) clearly demonstrate the processes that took place in the scientific and pedagogical and cultural life of Minsk during the period of the policy of Belarusization (with Andrey N. Maksimchik).

As a dean of the faculty of pre-university education and later – associate professor at the pedagogical faculty – he published number of scientific and methodical works, made a significant contribution not only to the formation of university education, but also in the development of the Belarusian high school. V. P. Tepin was one of the victims of Stalin repressions of 1930s. After the beginning of the Great Patriotic War, he stayed in Minsk and worked in the School Department of local administration. During the German occupation, he wrote his last work, «History of the Belarusian State University», in which he outlined his assessment of the events that preceded the creation of the university, the history of the first years of the BSU activities, his attitude to a number of teachers and political leaders of Belarus during the interwar period. The memoirs of V. P. Tepin, taken in comparison with the memoirs of other BSU staff and students of those two decades, help to reconstruct in more details the little-studied pages of the history of the first Belarusian university.

In Soviet literature, the term was not popular, and only isolated cases of its use are known. In post-Soviet historiography, the relation to the term “Celtic Revival” is rather negative, which contrasts sharply with the archaeological literature, where it is widely used, but the sense of term is quite different from works of historians.

After the number of educational reforms in the 1920th, Soviet government has decided return to the creation of the stable school textbooks in various fields of knowing. First such textbook on ancient history was written by the academician Nikolay Nikolsky in 1933. There were many critiques of this edition, both in terms of science and methods of teaching. The new author collective was created, consisting from S.Kovalev (supervisor), A.Mishulin, A.Svanidze and N.Nikolsky. But the new version of textbook was not approved by the party leaders in 1934. After this negative decision the changes began to occur in the group of authors. First, N.Nikolsky was succeeded by academician Vasily Struve, later A.Svanidze and S.Kovalev were repressed. As a result, work on the textbook lasted 6 years. The textbook was published only in 1940, and it does not indicate the authors, with the exception of the new head of the group of authors — professor A.Mishulin.

In the last decades scholars has changed their attitudes to this text — from denial of its historical value to acceptance him as one of the most interesting early medieval sources. «Historia Brittonum» was written probably by the same author, known as Nennius, who was able, using a wide range of sources, to create text that is defined as «synchronistic history». Of course, there are too many errors in «Historia Brittonum». But these errors shed light on how a writer who lived in one of the most difficult periods in British history saw the history of his people.
