Konstanty Kalinowski[a], or Wincenty Konstanty Kalinowski (2 February [O.S. 21 January] 1838 – 22 March [O.S. 10 March] 1864), was a Polish writer,[1]journalist, lawyer and revolutionary. He was one of the leaders of 1863 January Uprising on the lands of the former Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth. He is considered as a national hero in present-day Poland, Lithuania and Belarus. Particularly in Belarus, Kalinowski is revered as Father of the Nation and icon of Belarusian nationalism.[2]

Kalinowski conducted his activities in the spirit of resurrecting the common state of Lithuania, Ruthenia (now Belarus and Ukraine) and Poland in the traditions of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth.[1]
