opinion and by the sum of votes, well, yes, that is, it is not specific, for example, some kind of writer's award, in which the top is inevitably going to select according to taste and interests. it's already a reward. an expert can tell you what place the religious theme occupies in your work. i can not say that it is decisive, but how would e always. eh, i think in my works somewhere invisibly present. eh, the lord is present , the almighty, he, as it were, watches over this, so that i try not, bowed, nevertheless. here literally. recently, i wrote to me conveyed the request of our metropolitan, what did he want? so that i write a poem by euphrosyne of polotsk because a lot of things we have written nothing concrete now, something around and around everyone admires, then the handwriting and it’s some there and she’s not something

to go there. what exactly? uh, even follow her fate, they just can’t. well, instead of a poem, i got a poem of transformation, that's what it's called. she was just in time for the behavior of the results of this, because that awarding in moscow in a magazine right there they handed out participation to everyone called magazines. you know, you are right about the fact that about the transformation of polotsk, as little is known , because when i was in jerusalem and looked there, i offended all these places where she was supposed to visit them, at least some should be a memorial sign to stay there is nothing, so the fact that you were asked to perpetuate this name, after all. this is very significant. in my opinion. what is the place of religion in your life? i recently wrote a story that sweden is there one of my heroes on this topic argues in sufficient detail with a feeling it is said in his own and

heroes that there is a religion. is there faith faith - is this what you are ready to die for? and religion is also that you are ready to kill? that's where life happens somewhere in between. perhaps it is you who again brings an example of the place religion occupies in your work. and we ask such a narrower question , are you in my life? well, the morning begins and the day ends with a prayer. i have his wife, and the answer is, and recently in at the yanka kupala national academic theater, on the initiative of the belarusian women's union, a literary evening of such readings, bochkovsky, was held, it was called a gift. i very many famous people took part in it. among them was the metropolitan of minsk and zaslavl patriarch and tsar of all things. russian veniamin, here is what he orders for you in

a poem, you are awarded such a prize, that's all, this forces us to take part in benjamin. here in this swedish. the event ask this question why today the orthodox church is connected to such events? i wasn't there. somehow or other they didn't invite me, apparently in moscow well, yes, absolutely, of course. this reason here is the same as the reason that u patriarch u literary prize is in line , you know, uh, faith and uh, literature. these are native feelings and something else teaches a person to be purer in soul, to be more righteous, to be sincere, to be real. uh, calls high,

both of them both cleanse, therefore, in our time , this person has lost a lot of those qualities that human is spirituality for some reason it has become almost shameful something, and many others for many, it seems to be of good quality, therefore. to whom, if not religion, to whom, if not literature, to fight human, that spirituality is rapidly disappearing from our public life from everyday life , it is enough to look at what is shown on tv screens, what turns into performances in famous theaters. uh, primarily moscow. this is something terrible happening. if you don’t fight it with all your might, this person will stop very quickly. being human. well, we have often heard lately that church and state should be separated. yes, but today we see that after all the church and the state act as

a united front. in the same place, this is the struggle of critical moments in history; it has always been like this, if you remember in the soviet union there was a church of andreevna of the state. and when the great patriotic war began, you will become the brothers of classical correctness for a classic example, by the way, the type is over and our state church is gone. in general , the constitution in the russian federation is no longer the person decides for himself, admirers of your talent know you, as a brilliant translator , a book of translations from world poetry has recently been published, and you called it allegories of love. why was such a name chosen? well, this is a book, firstly, it is still 40 years old, it lies on your table. i then 40 years old anatolyevich the fact is that the translation of one poet with the translation of another poet has nothing

to do with many years ago. i was carried away by the fact that i began to read the poets of antiquity, i was convinced that, in general, this was brilliantly not without reason. in general, the names existed for three four thousand years and have come down to us. whom do you mean in the form of homer, and these names have found who still remember the history of the era of several of the most bloodthirsty emperors, and therefore everything is at least by last name. but when in what form it came to us, we translated it. well, even pushkin translated. yes, uh, pushkin translated the kathula with his playful verse, i don’t pay the slightest attention to what form it is, how it is stated? well, beautiful wives pushkin's verse later, when soviet scientists turned to this

have already begun to translate, observing some kind of geometry that was. okay, academically. they were weak, like poets, so it turned out right boring. and this also does not pump it up, but then i wanted to. why not make it so that it retains all the charm. eh, even the depth of what the authors themselves said and did not turn off so that readers could perceive it in a modern way. drip on pushkin's nose it turns out that you want no more, no less, there was nothing decisive. well, somewhere like that one or two poems a poem is a glass of divine nectar. your quote is very beautiful. i like it when i translate it from one language to another. the main thing for me to convey is not so much the shape of the glass. how much flavor of the magic drink? this phrase is absolutely correct for me. here she is, like an egrov. well, explain your idea. you understand that

m-m translators. after all , it is one thing to translate, say, from russian into belarusian, from belarusian into russian, to the original in different ways. these are very close languages. this can be claimed to be almost identical the similarity of what the fighter said in that e turned out to be anxiety. and if the languages ​​are distant, so i translate a lot, so there is something completely different in the original.
