In Charentsavane

Speech with music alternated - only one did not say his speech at the opening in Charentsavan - became a monument of Charents. And, probably, the ravine run and sad, which became a draw, carousel, listed by the snow, watched the platform for speeches. Carousel, slightly outsider. Having sewer, next to her fir boys straight with his palms late snow. They wanted to push, twice, sit at the clouds on the wing. Slightly pushed their fingers of the carousel, which came up to the ground. Carousel wanted scope. Our life is that time and leaps are a great scene, then the fee, then the routine carousel. Who - throws the knees, who cannot be climbed from his knees. Who lives following the example of a chance: Above all carousels and scenes. Blood for blood, massacre for a massacre is the story of this land. But there are no flowers above the earth where there are poets in the ground. Everything in me - from Gomer, Katulla, everything in Armenia is also mine. Without the Armenian great culture of mankind could not be. Dai, Charents, to rely on you to see the biblical dawn. Without Armenia, there is no charenza. Without a chance of Armenia there is no.

Evgeny Aleksandrovich Evtushenko (at birth - Gangnus). Born on July 18, 1932 in the winter of the Irkutsk Region - died on April 1, 2017 in Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA. Soviet and Russian poet.

Evgeny Yevtushenko was born on July 18, 1932 in the winter of the Irkutsk region. According to other data - in Nizhneudinsk.

Father - geologist and amateur poet Alexander Rudolfovich Gangnus (by origin - the Baltic German) (1910-1976).

Mother - Zinaida Yermolaevna Yevtushenko (1910-2002), geologist, actress, honored cultural worker of the RSFSR.

In 1944, upon returning from the evacuation from the Winter station to Moscow, the mother changed the surname of the Son to his maiden. When issuing documents for changing the surname, a bug was deliberately made in the date of birth: they recorded 1933, so as not to receive the pass, which was supposed to have in 12 years.

Began to be printed in 1949, the first poem was published in the Soviet Sport newspaper.

From 1952 to 1957 he studied in the literary institute. M. Gorky. An "disciplinary recovery" is excluded, as well as for the support of the novel Dudintsev "not bread together."

In 1952, the first book of poems "Scouts of the Coming" comes out, "afterwards the author rated it as a youthful and immature.

In 1952, became the youngest member of the Union of Writers of the USSR, bypassing the stage of the candidate for the members of the joint venture.

"I was taken to a literary institute without a certificate of maturity and almost simultaneously in the Union of Writers, in both cases it is sufficient for my book. But I knew her the price. And I wanted to write differently, "he told.

In the 1950s, which were the time of poetic boom, R. Christmas, E. Evtushenko, was released into the arena of a huge popularity. The performances of these authors were collected by huge stadiums, and the poetry of the "thaw" period soon began to call the pop.

In subsequent years, several collections are typing, which acquire more popularity: "Third snow" (1955), "Enthusiasts Highway" (1956), "Promise" (1957), "Verses of different years" (1959), "Apple" (1960) , "Tenderness" (1962), "Hands" (1962).

One of the symbols thawed steel in a large audience of the Polytechnic Museum, in which, together with Robert Christmas, Bella Ahmadulina, Bulat Okudzhava and other poets of the 1960s wave also took part Evtushenko.

Its works are distinguished by a wide range of moods and genre variety. The first lines from the pathos entry into the poem "Bratskaya HPP" (1965): "The poet in Russia is more than the poet," the manifesto of the creativity of the Evtushenko himself and the winged phrase, which sustainably entered the offense. The poet is not alien to the subtle and intimate lyrics: the poem "happened at the feet of the dog" (1955). In the poem "Northern Support" (1977), it makes a true ODE beer. Several poems and cycles of poems are devoted to foreign and anti-war topics: "under the skin of the statue of freedom", "Corrida", "Italian cycle", "Pigeon in Santiago", "Mom and neutron bomb".

Evtushenko's excessive success contributed to the simplicity and availability of his poems, as well as scandals, often rising criticism around his name.

The literary style and manner of Yevtushenko gave an extensive field of activity for criticism. He was often reproached to the Slavsov, Patus Rhetoric and Hidden Self-Assumption.

"Self-leveling cannot find the form of a calm, confident self-confidence, can not be an expression of an authentic personality. Ambitions are exceptionally great and long ago surpassed the scale of dating. The genre turns out to be violently polemic in every word, in every statement, and the main thing - the speaker cannot stop for a minute; Having joined the dispute with time and the world, he is forced to continuously manifest, "wrote Literary critic Nikolai Smooth about his poem" Fu! ".

Having calculated on the publicist effect, Evtushenko, he elected the topic of actual policies of the party, for example, "Stalin's heirs" ("True", 10/21/1962) or "Bratskaya HPP" (1965). Or addressed their critical public (for example, Babij Yar, 1961, or "poaching ballad", 1965).

In 1962, in the newspaper "True" published a widely famous poem "The heirs of Stalin" dedicated to the removal from the Mausoleum of the Body Stalin. Large resonance caused other works of Babij Yar (1961), "Esenin's Letter" (1965), "Tanks go through Prague" (1968). Despite such a frank call to the then power, the poet continued to be printed, ride across the country and abroad. Evgeny Yevtushenko is printed in the "Youth" journals in opposition in the Soviet times (also entered the editorial board of this magazine), "New World", "Banner".

In 1963, was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Literature.

08.23.1968 Two days after entering tanks in the Czech Republic, a protest wrote a poem: "Tanks go through Prague" (1968).

His speeches in support of Soviet dissidents of Brodsky, Solzhenitsyn, Daniel became famous. Despite this, Joseph Brodsky disliked Evtushenko (according to Sergey Dovlatov, his winged phrase "If Evtushenko vs. Kolkhoz, then I am for") and sharply criticized the election of Eudoshenko with an honorary member of the American Academy of Arts and Literature in 1987.

In an interview with 1972, published in October 2013, the Nobel Prize winner was extremely negative about Evtushenko as a poet and man: "Evtushenko? You know - it's not so simple. He, of course, the poet is very bad. And the man he is still the worst. This is such a huge factory for reproducing itself. According to the reproduction of himself ... he has poems that, in general, you can even remember, love, they can like. I do not like it just at all this level. That is mainly. The main one ... The Spirit does not like it. Just - Merzit. "

Fame received scenic speeches by Evtushenko: he successfully reads his own works. I released several disks and audiobooks in our own version: "berry places", "Pigeon in Santiago" and others.

Ultimately, the situation came so far that the doctors had to amputate the limb.

On December 14, 2014, during the tour in Rostov-on-Don, Yevgeny Yevtushenko was hospitalized due to a sharp deterioration in the state of health. Next, the poet was transferred to the Burdenko Neurosurgery of Neurosurgery, and then to the Central Clinical Hospital for the Office of the Presidential Affairs in Moscow. Then the poet fell into the hospital after looking out of the bathroom, slipped and broke his head. In addition, the press appeared in the press, the fact that the hospitalization of EUTUSHENKO was directly related to suspicion of acute heart failure and a fracture of temporal bone.

In August 2015, in Moscow, the doctors of the central clinical military hospital named after P. V. Mandryka conducted an operation on the heart of Eudoshenko. To eliminate problems with the heart rhythm, the poet during the operation introduced a pacemaker.

On March 31, 2017, the poet was hospitalized in serious condition. "Evgeny Aleksandrovich was hospitalized in serious condition, I can not say about the details yet. I can only say that this is not a planned survey," said Maria Novikov's spouse.

According to relatives and loved ones,. "He had cancer in an irreversible form. After studying the tests, the doctors gave him three months of life, but he lived less than a month," Mikhail Morgulis said a close friend of family. This diagnosis was put by American doctors about six years ago. At the same time, the poet was made operation and part of the kidney was removed. A month before death, the physicians diagnosed the fourth, the last stage of cancer.

"He left quietly enough, painlessly. I kept his hand for about an hour before his death. He knew that she was loved," said the son of the writer Eugene.

The poet left a will, in which he expressed the desire to be buried on the Peredelkinsky cemetery next to Boris Pasternak.

On April 10, in the church of St. Blessed Prince Igor Chernigov in Peredelkino passed. The funeral officer made a former head of the press service of the Patriarch of Moscow and All Russia, the abbot of the church of the Holy Martyr Tatiana at Moscow State University, publicist and literary critic Vladimir Vigilansky.
