and the emperor knows that many rebels have uncopied poems by pushkin, that is , he is kind of an ideologist, yes, that’s exactly it, and that, as the emperor wisely does, they taught at school, yes, i will be your censor, this is violence, this is, of course, this shouldn’t be idealized, no, no, no, but what happens next to pushkin, he understands that he’s not just telling you, yes, but he understands his role as a mediator. how important he is, the first person of the state, as we would say, yes, suddenly he calls this person, considers him the smartest, and does not execute him, but generally speaking, yes, that is, he fights, just like in the village they fought for the middle peasant, yes, the kulak will not go to the collective farm, yes, but the poor man will not have a single horse, but the middle peasant, who has two horses, whether it goes or not, pushkin found himself in the center in this sense of the state, yes, i’m not idealizing nikolai palyvich, but nevertheless, how simple it would have been...

as it says, of an ancient famous family, but he forgot about it, that’s when a person forgets his origin, then fate becomes a merciless rider towards him, and pushkin himself never forgot this, for him this deepest rootedness in russian history with all these african roots, yet this feeling is...

and natural, but look, pushkin in the monument, how does he go, to my a look, modest and not, not professional, perhaps goes further than garatius, garatius says that i erected a monument that will live in my place, yes, that’s all my works, pushkin says something else, that he called for mercy for the fallen, this not a literary work, but i glorified freedom, maybe he called for mercy for the fallen, that is, it is not what i wrote that will outlive me, but what will outlive me is my awareness, that at the point of my... consciousness

these vectors converge, the deepest personal freedom, yes, there is peace, will there and that’s it etc., i planned victories, and this gigantic bulk of the state, strange, yes, but with which you need to have a dialogue, and not take his side, leave the hero’s heart, why would he be a tyrant without it, on the one hand, on the other hand not just to bully and threaten, this is an amazing story, and here he is... the center of russian civilization, let’s still, in connection with this , since the key word was said, mercy, yes, let’s talk about the captain’s daughter, by the way, of course there is no church there either, so it seems to me that faith is some kind of internal, maybe the support of human life that is not fully manifested is very strong, there is, of course, i really really love the captain’s daughter, for me it is absolutely... the absolute

pinnacle not only of pushkin, but of all russian literature, the work is truly absolutely christian, because that god’s providence is felt there, it ’s just there, it’s revealed, not edifyingly, not so ideologically, yes, in such an artistic sense, because remember, yes masha mironova, who is faithful, yes, if your parents are petrusha against, they don’t go against this marriage, mind you, when the heroes go against their parents’ blessing, we get a blizzard, from the blizzard there is no... no, but if the heroes are faithful, obedient to their parents, then in the end they get happiness, but in addition, there of course there are elements of a fairy tale, because look, and grinev meets pugachev and gives him this very sheepskin coat, like literally ivan tsarevich meets a wolf, then the wolf will help him, it seems to me, like in pushkin, all this comes together, or what else amazes me about the captain’s daughter, here remember this scene, when the pugachevites are already pressing on the belogorsk ... fortress and

captain mironov says: masha, go, change into a peasant dress, it’s very similar to a young lady, a peasant woman, only there it’s vaudeville, there it’s funny, but here it’s completely ominous thing because we we understand that... in the area of ​​correspondence, in order to strengthen it in the midst of long storms and battles, we have composed many divine prayers, but not one of them strengthens me, like the one that the priest repeats during the sad days of lent, more often than not, she does not descend on the lips, and the fallen one is strengthened by unknown forces, lord,

my days, the spirit of idleness, sadness, lust for power, this hidden serpent and idle talk, do not give me my soul, but let me see my, o god, sins. may my brother not accept condemnation from me and the spirit of humility, patience, love and revive chastity in my heart, no edification, although this is just a great prayer, it is very beautiful, lord, lord of the belly of my idleness, i think that when he heard this, it sinks into the soul so much, what are we waiting for, what are we waiting for for someone to translate, for someone to translate, it won’t happen, it’s impossible to translate. they are also good writers, they very early began to understand the true magnitude of pushkin abroad, the same marimaya, he is very here; his special interest in pushkin, which is why he began to learn the russian language, was due to the fact that

he saw in him a special potential for artistic genius, which grows from overcoming sophistication, from advanced simplicity, from simplicity as a consequence of overcome complexity, but here he is... he speaks of this as your verisimilitude, free from embellishment, our poets strive for beauty and so on and so forth, your pushkin and so on and so forth, that is, a deliberate rejection of decorativeness, rhetoric, all this extremely complicates the translation task, and, in fact, marie mech feels powerless, by and large begins study, therefore, the russian language, they try to translate, but he himself understands that it does not work, and pushkin writes songs of western slavs, yes.

pushkin has a story, how exciting it is, the big question, and there is no, there is a love story, but it is not melodramatic at all, there is actually, by and large, such a narrative about life, which is very christian in its internal premises, a story about a nobleman whose noble honor is naturally organically subordinated to the concept of obedience, the course the entire narrative says that mercy overcomes justice, the law, and above all, but this... these are christian universals, deep universals, in general, valtoskot’s novel is about this, he didn’t say that, but this is not at all, it’s generally parallel for him, reality, and pushkin, as if testing the strength of that poetics, brings it into a completely different semantic space, and this is unusual, it

violates the system of expectations of the standard foreign reader, yes, yeah, it really does, and so it’s difficult in a good way imagine, this is what to present to a foreign reader so that it hooks him? from pushkin, poetry is difficult to translate, so here, here we will believe in bukova that the most ingenious cannot be translated, yes, from outside zhan’s miniature, that anegin can hook his western, again, who will translate it so that at least there are translations good translations, there are good ones, but this is not enough, this is not enough, pushkin continues to be what the whole country, and the world, and the world want and need to live, although you know, when i... thought about our conversation, was preparing, and somewhere i came across the question of whether pushkin is our interlocutor today, and i thought, are we ready to be interlocutors today, are we at the right level, just dostoevsky, then the heroes of the silver age are my favorite, they constantly repeated that pushkin is a task for

russian culture for the future, yes, that this still has to happen, and that everything else has to be revealed, the question is how much we will endure, how much we will show our worth, our worth. at this level, against the backdrop of pushkin, here are simple poems, against the backdrop of pushkin we spoke today, against the backdrop of pushkin everything, even davlatov, here are the reserves with this... so you can’t approach pushkin, well, as if your mind has not been washed, relatively speaking, you need to

bow your head a little, turn your shoulders to get the lightness that he had, i ’m not talking about such prayerful admiration or rhetorical respect, but about the fact that pushkin is equal to us, at the moment when we hear him, and much deeper than us, when we try, try it ... let them read, alexey nikolaevich varlamov, our favorite podcast, the life of the wonderful, and

i, vladimir ligoida, we were gathering thoughts about pushkin, what else to gather thoughts about, who else to gather thoughts about these days. hello, dear friends, this is. podcast life of the remarkable i am with you, its host, writer alexey varlamov, my guest is the writer daria dontsova, head of the poetry department of the novy mir magazine, researcher at the dahl literary museum, pavel kryuchkov, hello, hello, and today we will talk about korney chukovsky, but it’s clear that pavel works for us in the museum chukovsky, who is part of the literary museum named after daria, our guest today is not as a famous author, but

as a person who personally knew korniy ivanovich, remembers and can tell us some unique things that no one else can tell maybe i would like to start with the fact that there is this classic phrase: a writer in russia must live a long time, which is attributed to the root of ivanovich chukovsky, and my question is: is it true or is it a myth? let's first, a writer in russia should live a long time, you know, in general, probably living a long time is good, if it were not for arthritis, gastritis, colitis and everything else that accompanies age. i never heard this phrase from karnya ivanovich, but we were children. i remember it in such a truncated version, in russia you have to live for a long time, this is how i just said it, some witnesses refer to the years that korney ivanovich said it, and even i saw quotes in the dictionary.

if he hadn’t fallen ill with viral hepatitis, he might have lived even longer, but in any case, he has seen a lot, he has a lot of life experience, so, of course, the main thing is what most of us know today remembers are children's poems, well, books for children in general, but this is only part of his work, part of his life, part of his destiny, but in general this is a completely huge life, and let's start from the very beginning, and he after all, it’s not karney chukovsky, that’s right, but he... was baptized in nikolai, that’s his patronymic, since he was illegitimate, the son of the girl korneichukova, it was

chosen by ivanovich, or the priest who baptized father ioan, that is, sometimes they gave him godfather, yes maybe there there was a successor ivan, yes, maybe so, my mother’s surname was chosen by kornechukov, that ’s how they write in the dictionaries that in fact he is nikolai vasilyevich, kornechukov, also this vasily. uh, it was also either the priest vasily, who baptized, or the successor vasily, it is not clear, but this is vasilivich, a completely conventional patronymic before him, this is his whole childhood story, this trauma was real, right?

brilliant, someone there broke these words up with commas, and i wonder if it really happened or did he make it up? i think it was this it’s very difficult to come up with, it seems to me, it was, cool, you, giving, how you remember him, i understand that you already saw him as a grandfather, most likely, yes, well, of course, i see, i saw him as an old man, but he to me didn’t seem alive, how would it not be strange, he ran with me to races to

remake legs, and he had very long legs, he was very tall, and i was such a little girl with thick legs, and he always overtook me , let’s win, that ’s how you remember him, yes, yes, he was always smiling, let’s run home, he says about the creativity of writers, about him, naturally, he ran forward, the yaga ran behind, got terribly upset, began, that means, to let out, let out tears, that’s it, but ivanovich basically said, you know, you lost, wait, your legs will grow , you can definitely overtake, he remodeled the children's library for us. i very quickly read almost all of it and it was 5:00 so around the evening, i very often knocked on his dacha, sometimes lidya korneevna opened the door, looked at me, i said, hello, lidya korneevna, i i need such and such a book, but it’s not in our library, she answered me, baby,

please come in, the chocolate cupcake is already ready, this is the dacha, that’s where i came in, that’s the green one. didn’t understand which ones, but the adults whispered that there were some, but i was the daughter of an ideological enemy, you know, and, oh, the office, and such an enemy that karneevna would definitely have been very unpleasant, but she let me into the house and i never felt

that they don’t like me in this house, i never had this feeling at all, he’s in his memories... i wrote, i remember this moment, the bonfire, hello summer, the bonfire, goodbye summer, the princess who was supposed to play the main role in our children's play, i thought it would be me, but it wasn’t me who got it, and i’m in tears, i was about eight years old and came to korna ivanovich, began to sob, cry, stomp my feet and demand that i be a princess, he has it in his diaries, this is right here, right here, he has an entry in his diaries, and you are in this photo ? maybe there is, but i can’t recognize myself from behind, here’s a girl, who is sitting in a colored dress and white bows, this is tina kotaeva, the granddaughter of valentin petrovich, i just remember her dress very well, right there behind her in a dark blouse is lida, and she is lidochka, they lived on valentin petrovich’s property, her mother there was a watchman, her mother was a watchman, i can recognize them,

somehow, my god, this photograph, it took me a long time.

hello, and somehow he even became one of the favorites, and one day he didn’t turn in some work to a publishing house somewhere on time or something, and they threatened to tear them up creative relationship and he came to korney ivanovich and told him to complain that this is such a thing, kornyo, you didn’t submit it on time, yes, i got you, maybe you can help somehow or something, korney ivanovich called and said on the phone : you did everything right, yes, he was with us, we were very angry for being late, and yes, and valentin semyonovich, he was somehow stunned by this

, and korniy ivanovich, almost in a calming mode, very seriously, fatherly told him so, listen, well, why did this happen, he said, korny ivanovich, i had circumstances, insurmountable circumstances, he said, i understand you, you have circumstances, i also have circumstances, i am sick. old man, i buried two sons, sat at the bedside of my dying daughter for a year and a half, survived three wars, hunger strikes, i did not eat at times, i had to submit an article on time, no matter what happened around me and with me, i got up every day in the morning and worked , what i wish for you, understand, we are like actors, people can die around us, something can happen, we are obliged to go on stage. and then a brilliant phrase: this is our destiny, and it’s a sin to evade it, the one who doesn’t remember says, that’s how it all entered my consciousness and heart, and then i lived as

a different person, by the way, let’s talk, that ’s how he entered literature, pavel, that’s how this child has such a difficult fate, all these circumstances, why he chose literature, did literature choose him, let’s go back to him a little, he has his own... his own adventure in all this, it seems to me, because he has been from early childhood i read a lot and have it in his diary such a memory that he was an official, skipped classes at the gymnasium, from where he was kicked out in the end, came to a city park in odessa, climbed into a hole filled with fog, avidia read aloud to himself, reveling in these lines, you know, that is, it was it's completely narcotic for him. the excitement of reading, he read indiscriminately, a lot, and it so happened that in the end he decided that well, that means, now i will also be a writer,

while he had no university education, he had no university education there was no education, when he was dismissed from the gymnasium, he simply went into free swimming, helped his mother, worked there part-time, put up posters, painted easter eggs, painted roofs, and so, by the way, he learned english on the roofs, well, the well-known story is that he i scraped off the old paint with a spatula, boldly in my pocket, wrote words, taught them, made up sentences from these words, they were absurd and it was easier to remember this way, i learned the language this way, in connection with this there were several wonderful legends, for example, in england, when he the first time he went, his things were stolen, he came to police department, began to say that things were stolen from him in english, they could not understand a word of what he was saying, that is, he tried to say about himself: i am a writer, ia writer, but he spoke to me as an author and it is incomprehensible. absolutely, what does all this mean, when he wrote, everything is clear, he really began to write his first book at the age of 17, and it was a philosophical book, oh, like rozunov,

it was. dostoevsky, mikhailovsky, well, all at once, and kant, which means he decided to create his own philosophical system, so a friend who already worked at a newspaper in odessa news once said, this piece, where you write about the paths of our art, can be published, tried in a newspaper, and he took and took the odessa news to the newspaper, where these pages disappeared like... . is art possible for art and he signed the literary name korney chukovsky from his mother’s surname, and this is how a writer appeared for the first time, and these are crocodiles, this is the first fairy tale, the first fairy tale, the first big fairy tale, the first big fairy tale, this.

sixteenth, probably, but in your opinion, how is it that a person who starts out as a philosopher, a critic, a journalist, well, suddenly turns around like that and writes fairy tales for children, like a writer, how can you explain this psychologically? , but i can’t explain this psychologically in any way, because i understand that karniy ivanovich himself didn’t understand where he gets it from, when they start asking where you get books, scientifically, here’s my husband, he could explain where he gets the book from , these are well-read, which means bookshelves, yes, from here. he has another textbook coming out and or something, where korney ivanovich got the books from, i think, i think he himself didn’t know, resistance, resistance, little children had nothing to read out loud, there was absolutely nothing then, well, for those who are 2 years old , that is, you want to say that there was no such literature for children, there was none at all, for older ones there was, well, because a small child needs rhythms, don’t say that you, that ours, all these great-grandmothers and great-grandfathers were brought up without

these children's books. the entire 19th century, the entire 19th , only after the age of 5 was it possible for a child to somehow connect something with literature, and before that only songs, that is, he was essentially a new bear riding a bicycle, he created literature for two-year-olds, there was no , he is the creator of this literature, everyone came from him, my grandmother said this, songs, thank god there were, yes grandmother, grandmother said, grandmother graduated from the institute of noble motto, there was such a very woman, well, for her time, very educated 1800,

his hit in helsinki by a trolley passing the horse turned kolya had to see a doctor to see a doctor there was a surgeon. russian boy with no approval, which means he did something to him, they went back by train, went, in my opinion, to st. petersburg, they went and korniy ivanovich , to the sound of the wheels, so that kolya would not whine, began to fold him under the sound of the wheels adventures of a crocodile, and i, when i used to give excursions to small children, i showed, i say, you hear how the train is moving, once upon a time there lived a crocodile, here is kolya, here once upon a time there lived a crocodile, he walked along the nevsky prospekt, cigarettes, hear, a train

is dialing. to take over, as i joke, the magazine niva, not even to take over, to create a children’s department , to make an application for children, in every issue, starting from january of the seventeenth year, until december of the seventeenth year, that is, under three modes, he began to print his crocodile , some chapters were added directly to the typesetting, this can be seen from the proofs, and it was the first child who always submitted everything on time, no, no, but how does it work out, sometimes

just before printing, but he didn’t miss it. not a single issue, in all twelve issues the crocodile came out, the crocodile came out, and he has not yet understood that he had turned into a classic of children's literature, and at the same time, it means the book is about blok, but this... in the last years of blok's life, he really became friends with him, because there was no friendship at the beginning of their acquaintance, but before there was no revolution, no, no, the bloc has a very harsh entry in the diary about korney ivanovich, who came from odessa, the critic chukovsky, who with his stupid paws gets into our smart st. petersburg pain, and korney ivanovich writes that this is famous, this is this is already friendship, this is already friendship, he said, he said that the block is sitting next to me on this one.

god looks at me with a very sympathetic expression. dear friends, we continue, this is the life of the wonderful podcast. i’m with you, its host, writer alexey varlamov. today we are talking about karn ivanovich chukovsky,

our guests are the writer daria dontsova and the literary critic, employee of the dahl literary museum, pavel kryuchkov. and he was also friends, if we talk about great poets with pasternak, or here is a photograph that... a brother in the shop, but there is no friendship, friendship is god's gift, this is a special thing. who was his peredelkinsky social circle? you know, i’m talking about

us practically, we were jostling all the time at his dacha, yes, but he was calm about it, and towards us, yes, about this photograph, can i say a few words, they gave him a dress, that means. leader, korney ivanovich simply adored this dress, i don’t know how, he opened all the fires in this dress and always did not forget to say that it was given to him by a real indian leader. sometimes one of the children shouted: “indian, indian,” he said: “no, indian, every time, every time he corrected it, he really loved, really loved this dress, and of course, he’s just like a child, he’s somewhere inside himself, he just was with us as equals, but you know.” the moment when he has, i caught this very well, when you have to leave, you’re sitting at his house, drinking tea with a cake, everything is fine, everything is fine, lida korneevna, korney ivanovich, someone else came there, i’m a child, i now i have to be silent, i

don’t interfere in adult conversations, but in some, and i know karnya very well ivanovich and he sits smiling, at some point, you know, his eyes become like this, well, this is how he sees you and doesn’t see you. and i look at him and i understand, no, it would be better for these people to leave, but i can’t tell them this, you know, as the curtain fell on him, at some point people began to interfere with him, nevertheless, yes about about people i still want to say that chukovsky

precisely because he knew so many people, and not only did he invent the genre for children, he invented the chukokala genre, because it seems to me that this is a book, which has no precedents at all in world literature, this is what he took, took... he came up with this, and this is an absolutely stunning handwritten almonac, here is pavel, how did this book even come into being? it arose, it arose, repin invented, repin.

repin, it means, his hand hurt, the doctors asked his friends to watch his friends so that he did not put any strain on his hand, but he always, when he came to korna ivanovich, wanted to draw someone, took a napkin or something there, and so one day he carne ivanovich held up the notebook, here he was, hand in hand, and he even drew in the this monk, there are repin’s drawings with a match, which he dips in ink, here are the first entries in chukokal - these are repin’s drawings, home and everyday ones. and then he saw kornet ivanovich,

that this is incredible wealth, these records were created in moments of rest, here is repin’s workshop, kornet ivanovich, this is the day of tolstoy’s death, that is, when the newspapers reported about tolstoy’s death, repin is reading this newspaper, but he wanted photographer bulla to shoot for the newspaper, for the newspaper speech, in my opinion, just such a ceremonial photograph, you know repin reads about the death of tolstoy, repin really didn’t like this idea, but somehow, according to legend, he said. if chukovsky sits down with me, i will take a photo, and this photograph was published, yes, of course, it was published in newspapers, in my opinion, even abroad, here are their wives standing, korney ivanovich, there are two versions of this photo, korney ivanovich sits next to his unfinished portrait, uh, by repin, and behind repin we see a picture of repin, oh, tolstoy and sofia andrevna, and judging by the evidence that has survived, having learned about tolstoy’s departure from...

when the alterations arrived, they slipped him, korne ivanovich, they slipped him a doll, and something

twitched poor alexei ivanovich, he had a homeless youth, there was a skid, that’s all, he behaved like a bully, then for years he suffered, he korne ivanovich, it’s scary, korne ivanovich put the monk down for him and left, and there he was to oskar vaaldkuyal, you know, there was akhmatova’s mandalshtan, and it was kind of scary, just what to do, so he sat, sat all over. who was very friendly with him and alexy ivanov, she never missed an opportunity to tell

him: yes, yes, that kokal, we are preparing for publication, there is also your recording, recently they gave us a wonderful gift, they gave us such a gift, there is such an old radio, yuri ivanovich metelkin found it somewhere in the archives of leningrad radio broadcasting, the recording alexey ivanovich tells this story, we , i want us to on april 1st we heard this recording, there is very little of panteleev’s voice left, by the way, a question about the recordings, we will definitely listen to the chukov recording now. i would like to say that already in this century such wonderful memories and letters have come out here, amazing, here we are meeting in the year of the fifty-fifth anniversary of the death of korney ivanovich and a wonderful entry it was in a self-published article by yulian oksman, literature of the veda, how chukovsky was preserved, it began with the phrase: the last person

who was at least ashamed of him died, so i remember, and here are letters from arseny torkovsky, where he calls kornet ivanovich shakespeare for children. very well thought out too, wonderful, well, in general, has karkovsky been to this house? yes, of course, of course, i was there on the first of april, there is a photo, here i am not so long ago i published this photograph where he and his wife are sitting, after all, who do you remember in this house among the famous people, i remember many of our writers, there was a carpet, who is now trying to yavtushenko came, but do you remember telling a lie? i don’t remember solzhenitsyn, he was somewhat of a solzhenitsyn. no, well, i think, i think that yes, it’s unlikely to visit children, but the poet kazin came, vasily, yes, such a short guy, he came to korna ivanovich, karna ivanovich loved to talk to him, they came the actors were very different to him, the directors

came, i don’t remember torkovsky, i just never, never knew him, yes, some names were called, they sometimes remembered.

a wonderful phrase, he did not consider himself a creator, an artist, so it’s not paradoxical, he always considered himself a laborer in literature, but maybe he understood fairy tales that as a poet he did something, and so he considered himself a laborer, that’s why attitude towards other talents, he had a simple, i would say, religious reaction, he said, i am ready for the artist’s hands kiss, you see, he was somehow incredibly sensitive to the fact that someone had an artistic gift, although about the hands. about hands, karonia ivanovich had such a big hand, always very warm, and he somehow understood that i had a very strict mother, and a very strict grandmother, these books were at hand, somehow so you sit and cut, then you do this, the books fall, they kick you out from the table, this is my childhood, sometimes i was very

upset and came upset, he always like so somehow like this somehow did like this like this... looked, yes, and then took it like that, put his hand on your head here, and such a big, you know, warm, warm hand , and it let you go, that’s why you ’re sitting here, shaking, because you were scolded at home, it’s somehow all a punishment, you let go, and he looked like that and said, everything will be fine, in my life, in my life very there were a lot of different people, good and bad, yes, but in my life i have never had such a feeling. that they love me just like that, you see, they love you without waiting for an answer from me, you’re borrowing from me, but i have this feeling, well, how dad left early, how i didn’t have this feeling when korney ivanovich left, i remember very well how anton and i ivanov somehow started talking

about this topic, antosha looks at me, looks at me and says: you see, we are now left alone, yes, we, unfortunately, need to finish, but now, before we part with you, we let's listen to the voice of korny ivanovich, listen to the words that he said a few months before his death. and my morning, noon, and evening are behind me, everything is getting thicker, the night is approaching, darkness is over me, it’s in vain to ask, wait, however, i don’t see anything here... nothing upsetting, here i humbly follow in the footsteps of my idolized pushkin, who he never knew how to be properly frightened... of the threat of inevitable death, he expressed his entire attitude towards it in cheerful poems, our grandchildren

will drive us out of the world in good time, just like that, in good time, and may they be happy in separation from me, please forgive me, yes, i understand you, of course, yes, of course, giving the road, he spoke in sad moments, there had already been a lot of tragedy in life. “ you have to be kind, you have to, chekhov trained himself to be good, it seems to me that he knew how to do this, he trusted ten, why did you feel this energy of warmth, kindness, because he trusted you, because he understood what the human soul is , so he was not religious, but the soul, the concept of the soul lived in him, he had a soul, very dramatic, so tragic, but a real soul, although i probably still can i don’t agree with you..." i agree, because i’m an orthodox girl, i read on kleris, now sometimes thinking about root ivanovich, naturally,

there was no religion in the conversations, but now i’m remembering how he lived, what he was like, he was definitely not a future orthodox, yes, he was definitely orthodox, that’s what i want to say, but he didn’t know it about himself, yes, he didn’t know it about himself, there was a real soul there, let’s finish with this wonderful phrase. hello, you are watching precious stories

and my presenters, sergei mikhailovich nekrasov, director of the all-russian pushkino museum and ekaterina varkan. well, sergei mikhailovitch and i, when we meet, i often tell you about pushkin, and today will be no exception, but we somehow noticed that we usually need some illustrations, of course, to show, we usually show these... of the all-russian museum pushkin, to be more precise, in our funds there is this particular painting, by the artist pyotr petrovich

konchalovsky, we see here pushkin at the moment of creative inspiration, and he is covered with this blanket, a little bit like a tiger skin, and it would seem that this is how it was intended from the very beginning, but in our funds there is also a photograph, a photograph... of the first version of this painting, in this photograph pushkin is depicted like this, how the artist decided to show him, how he really was, most likely yes, because this pose, with his legs tucked under him, he is sitting on the sofa and the moment of creative inspiration, which the artist showed so well here, of course, attracts attention to his appearance, to the poet’s face, to that the very pen that pushkin is holding knows that pushkin was very fond of gnawing the feathers that he wrote, they are all nibbled and, so to speak,

are very small feathers, but the legs, the bare legs, were not liked very much by those - the people in the commission, yes who looked at this picture, we must remember that this is the beginning of the thirties, this is the first version of 1932, this is the beginning of preparation. to the big pushkin events of 1937, when there was a grandiose exhibition in the historical museum, when there was a luxurious exhibition in the hermitage, and more generally, in many countries, and the famous exhibition in paris in the pleeli hall, everyone tried to show pushkin as interesting as possible, but this work caused, as they sometimes say today, an inadequate reaction. well, yes, there

is such a thing, but it remained in the final version, then the artist had no choice but to cover these naked pushkin legs, to cover the bright spot with the same blanket that we see today, and of course, from this, maybe, indeed the picture even won, but such a funny case that the first option was somewhat artificial, more so, maybe... natural, but in your museum sergei mikhailovich, we know, this is not a secret, there are a large number of rarities, today we, in fact, would like to talk about pushkin’s canes, pushkin’s canes, so we know that today four canes are known, three of them can be seen in your museum in pushkin’s apartment at the car wash, they

are on display, canes too, this is how dandy london is dressed, this was like this... it plays like a wood cutter, it looks especially holy completely somehow differently, the first construction worker , alexander sergenevich, loved to walk, he was often seen in the summer garden with this cane, when a misfortune happened and pushkin had already died in a duel, this cane was given as a gift to pyotr

pletnev, professor of st. - st. petersburg university. friend of alexander sergeevich pushkin and pletitnev always went with this cane to the university, where he was a professor, and gave lectures and did not leave the lectures, each time, not forgetting to note that this was pushkin’s cane, and even when pletitnev became the rector of st. petersburg university, he nevertheless did not part with it, he constantly used it, i must say that it...

was held in his hands, alexander sergeevich, any thing seems to us especially important, it still retains the energy of its owner. hello, the news is live in the studio sergei tugushev, the beginning of the release, briefly about the main thing. new tactics of russian assaults before attacking the positions of ukrainian formations, our soldiers create copies of the ukrainian armed forces’ support consoles and train on them. in a real fight it works almost automatically.
