a modern, convenient for trade, seasonal market, canopies that protect both buyers and sellers from rain and snow, new trading pavilions, all this was done already in the two thousandths, i can’t even believe that once upon a time everything was different here. it is difficult to imagine anything more terrible than our zakharyevskaya street, which behind the golden hill bears the name komarov. a sticky solid swamp, it is in no way possible to pass through it, minsk leaflet, 1907, it’s amazing that such a place was written about this place that semensk residents and guests of the capital loved so much at the beginning of the last century, isn't it? well, komarovka is not only a market, it is only part of a large area in the center. minsk and

its history are fascinating; an interesting journey through these places awaits us. this area got its name from the village of komarovka, which was located near minsk. until 1812 it belonged to the princes. then she moved on to the equally famous vankovich family. by the end of the 19th century it was included in the city limits. some 100 years ago it was a large working-class area, komarovka, slachugami, streets. now this

the center of the capital, it began to be developed in 1930, it all began with the formation of the square on the general plan, it was listed as such, komarovskaya was called that until 1956, but today it bears the name of the belarusian songwriter yakub kolos. in the fifties, the square became part of the architectural design of stalinsky prospekt and was built up with buildings in the neoclassical style. the first to be erected here was a printing plant, symmetrically to it , the building of the electronic computer plant named after it. this architectural solution

formed another gate of minsk after near the station, but with access to verykh oruzhiy street, one of the most important city thoroughfares. the building of the belarusian state philharmonic society, residential buildings, tsum, which, however, had a slightly different appearance, made the square the way... we are used to seeing it today. in the farthest part of what was once the komarovsky district there is an academ book store. here you can find everything that concerns our history, our culture. but there is a special section, it concerns the main museum of the country, national, art. this is what we need, this

is where we will go, i think we will surely a lot of interesting things await you, don’t be afraid of pleasant surprises.

in the village of borovki, polotsk district, in september 1925 there was a real commotion. the villagers, with bated breath, at first watched with surprise, and then even with interest, how this time the skirmish between the deputy of the village council and the secretary would end, the documents must remain in the collection room, they cannot be taken away, here on the table give the papers to nowhere, by christ god, please do not lead to sin , give it back in a good way, i saw it somewhere else so that... i’ll settle down, i’ll tell you i’m this business, the foreman left me in charge, i’m the main thing here, give me the papers, look how many people have gathered, they all need certificates, there are no documents, no seals, if the foreman

villages kept coming and coming. the event is very important. it was necessary to elect a chairman and something unprecedented for this position of the district government. comrades, in our country there should be a special attitude towards women, but here you can be kind, women are fools, but it’s still so reasonable to say that we men won’t give such a thought, there is an opinion that

comrade polikova will cope with the task set by the party, in a few years on the front page of the newspaper sovetskaya belarus. an article was published entitled “kolgas foreman”, it talked about one of the first women in the republic to be the chairman of the collective farm pravda of the tolochinsky district, zenaida polikova, she headed the farm in difficult times and brought it to the forefront and a whole list of farm achievements: a new one was built current at 60 m, collective farmers are being helped to build private houses... a new street has appeared, a newspaper from that period is full of catchy titles about the successes of women villagers, foremen, flax growers, farm managers, an unprecedented phenomenon in the countryside. in november 1924

berman, having retired from the darkroom after a busy day, watched with particular trepidation as the developer gradually developed. images come to life delegates of the first congress of peasant women, so different, but so spiritual, special, their images did not at all fit with those usual ideas about a rural woman, illiterate, immersed in their household chores, the spirited delegates came to mind, uncompromising, with what persistence they convinced him, elye that everything is already changing, and the herring woman is changing too, a smile involuntarily appeared on elye’s face, it was useless to object, it’s still written here, the article is called that, why are congresses of peasant women social activists convened? deception, burying working women, we will put an end to this, that’s it, full stop, lively young ladies of a new

formation, as they wrote about them in the newspapers, literally stepped on him. elye’s attempts to convince them otherwise were met with more and more new arguments. many women in women's councils work on collective farms and participate in public work. there were young ladies here, and now what, headscarves, leather jackets, oh, young ladies, young ladies, the stories of the delegates were really impressive, and the determination with which the village women fought for the right to be on equal terms with men and methods of struggle were also impressive. in july

1938 in the editorial office of the newspaper sovetskaya belorussia ovral. there was an urgent need for a series of reports about the first women deputies in the history of the bssr, namely peasant women, elected to the belarusian parliament in the first popular elections. women were engaged in men's work, among the leading workers of the kalinino collective farm of the rogachovsky

cinema in minsk was another full house, the hall was filled to capacity with people. in 1932 , a film directed by dzegan called “woman” was released in wide release in the soviet union. he became something of a sensation. for the first time, the image of a simple peasant woman was embodied on the screen, which... with bated breath, the audience followed the story of a simple rural woman, maria, who dreams of becoming a tractor driver, but faces threats from her husband and ridicule from the villagers. despite everything, she goes to her goal, enrolls in the pavarikha tractor brigade, secretly watches how the tractor works, and studies its structure from textbooks. in the end, she achieves her goal and becomes the best tractor driver of the brigade. the story told by the authors was

consonant with the stories of millions of soviet women. enthusiasm, desire to repeat the fate of mary, with many left the hall in this mood. and the women of the country of the soviets reached new heights. first. on april 1939, the newspaper pravda published an appeal from students of the semiryazev agricultural academy for 100,000 friends to buy the first tractor. was the signature of pasha angelina, according to the 1939 census in the bssr, among tractor drivers, there were already 109 women , 209 combine operators and helmsmen, 460 gardeners, and 815
