Bunin theses of the biography

Published: October 22 Views: October 22, a well -known Russian writer, poet and translator, Nobel laureate in literature Ivan Alekseevich Bunin was born. One and a half century anniversary from the birthday of the writer was one of the priority topics and projects in the framework of the Russian Historical Society for the year. Ivan Bunin came from an old noble family.

He was born in Voronezh. His father, who received a small inheritance, went bankrupt, so Bunin’s childhood and youth passed in the family estates Butyrki and Ozerki of the Yelets district of the Oryol province now located in the Lipetsk region. The main milestones of the life and work of the writer can be found by studying the selection of documents and sources in the electronic fund of the presidential library: these are not only digitized copies of publications of works of the early twentieth century, photographs, letters, but also research work, abstracts of dissertation works.

Bunin managed to put and partly allow the indigenous, topical ... flaws of modern reality. Do not forget that I. Bunin was an unsurpassed stylist, a master of artistically expressive writing. A lively interest in the outstanding figure of I. Bunin, in his human and spiritual experience, does not disappear to this day, ”writes the famous bibliographer and publicist Oleg Lasunsky in the preface to the Catalog-album I.

I. Bunin in the press - ”, the text is presented on the portal of the presidential library. From an early age, Bunin was very trembling about domestic literature and was proud that he could rightfully call his relative one of the luminaries of Russian literature of the poet Vasily Zhukovsky, the son of Athanasius Bunin, the ancestor of Ivan Alekseevich on his paternal line, and the captive Turkishka.

In the year, Ivan Bunin entered the Yelets male gymnasium. But the studies were not easy for the writer there, Bunin studied at the gymnasium for a little over four years and did not return to classes after the next holidays: “There was also a harsh from a completely free life, from mother’s concerns to life in the city, to absurd severity in the gymnasium and to the serious life of those bourgeois and merchant houses, where I had to live as a fucking and merchant”.

Every year, Bunin is increasingly imbued with literature: in the year he publishes his poems and stories in the Petersburg newspaper Rodina, turning at this stage of his work to childhood memories. A few years later, Bunin moves to Eagle. At that time, the writer is only 18 years old. He begins to work as a corrector in the editorial office of the provincial newspaper "Oryol Bulletin", writes articles and theatrical reviews.

It is in Orel that the first poetic collection of Bunin “Poems” is published, in which the poet reflects on philosophical topics and describes the beauty of Russian nature. The modest, it would seem, the nature of the Yelets Territory entered the flesh and blood of a younger writer, then it will dream of him in emigration in Paris. Bunin in the press - ". It is this publication that opens the album “I.

At the beginning of the year, the Moscow Publishing House "Scorpio" issued a collection of Bunin verses "Listopad", which, together with the translation of "Songs of Gayavat" was awarded the Pushkin Prize of the Russian Academy of Sciences shortly before the revolution in Petrograd Publishing House "Partnership A. Partnership A. Marx ”presented readers with a six -volume complete collected works of the writer in the form of a free application to the illustrated magazine Niva.

In the pictures from the Fund of the Presidential Library, he is captured, for example, next to Maxim Gorky, Fedor Chaliapin and others. The writer did not accept the coup of the year and the coming to power of the Bolsheviks, regarding this as a national catastrophe. The attitude towards what happened in the country was fully reflected on the pages of the book “Cursed Days”.

Analyzing the reasons for the deepest social crisis, he will write: “Of us, like a tree, both a club and an icon, depending on the circumstances, on who processes this tree: Sergius of Radonezh or Emelyka Pugachev. If I had not loved this “icon”, I didn’t like this Rus', because of why I would have gone so crazy all these years, because of which I suffered so continuously, so fiercely?

There he wrote his most secret works related to his homeland: “Solar blow”, “Cornet Elagin”, “Ida”, the story “Mitin Love”, the lyric-autobiographical novel “Arsenyev’s Life”, stories and novels, which included “Dark Alleys”, about which Bunin himself once said: “I think“ dark alleys ”that are the best that the“ dark alleys ”that are the best that the“ dark alleys ”is that the“ dark alleys ”is the best that the“ dark alleys ”is that“ dark alleys ”is the best.

I wrote ... ”In the year, Ivan Bunin completed the most significant work of the foreign period - the novel“ The Life of Arsenyev ”, for which he received the Nobel Prize. The author’s name became world famous, but in his homeland he was still in oblivion: not a single work legally crossed the borders of the USSR. So I did not read Bunin before the war, for it was impossible to get Bunin in Voronezh, where I lived then, ”said Grigory Baklanov, the Frontovik writer.

The war reconciled the writer with the Bolshevik regime hated by him.Political contradictions faded into the background - Bunin closely monitored the progress of hostilities, and the defeat of the Nazis near Stalingrad celebrated as a personal victory. At the end of the war, the writer even thought about returning back to Russia. The long-awaited meeting of the works of the emigrant writer with the Russian-speaking reader occurred after his death.
