Molokhovets biography
In what paradise? With asparagus in the pharynx? Omara Krezes? To whom do you advise sterlet squeezes with institute grimaces so that it becomes golden like a million, squeezing the servants to feed, so that they have a lunch today? Here you are sitting under an icy rock, in front of you icy nala, you are reading your covenant boiled, you are donated to the young hostesses, and the worm is unsatisfied with your hand, in the other - your skull mumbled in a colander a night shadow, cold, hungry, half -bastard, a half -blessed poet curses and Elena Molokhovets, and her last life with her abundance.
And then inevitably you will think that this poem could successfully comment on the psychotherapist. The hungry time curses the era of abundance, and what is more here - hatred of rich or fierce envy of the hungry for well -fed, living in safety? But another thing is interesting: hardly the poet knew how Elena Molokhovets had developed, but at the same time he wrote everything correctly.
No matter how the scan of the Molokhovets “Boiled Testament” compiled, but in Soviet times it also came in handy. Published in M “Book on delicious and healthy food”, the Bible of the Stalinist neonep, the reflection of the famous slogan “Live has become better, comrades, live more fun”, decorated with luxurious illustrations and quotes from Stalin and Beria, was owed a lot to “gifts to young hostesses”.
The difference was that the Molokhovets described reality, and the Stalinist cook book was a dream: very few could eat in M well, and almost everything were hungry or half -starved. He also killed the author of the "gift to young housewives." Elena Ivanovna Molokhovets lived for 87 years. She saw serfdom, could see Lenin. In the middle of her life, Elena Ivanovna was carried away by spiritualism and Orthodox mysticism.
However, “carried away” is an inaccurate word: Elena Molokhovets became a fanatic. She wrote the hospital, but her recipes “In the spring to pick up a young frog and hold them in her hands until they get ready” with success. Her other books were of a different kind. It is difficult to reproduce what she wrote about in them. In the books “The Voice of the Russian Woman, regarding the state and spiritual and religious and moral revival of Russia”, “In the Defense of the Orthodox-Russian Family”, “Monarchism, Nationalism and Orthodoxy”, “On the Sacrament of Orthodox Church Marriage as a prototype of the history of the marriage of faith with a science”, we were talking about the afterlife of the atheists, about the relations of religion and knowledge.
And also about the special path of Russia and that the events of the real world are the essence of the reflection of mystical events. Almost no one read her brochures, no one listened to her. The prophecies of Elena Ivanovna were vague and inaccurate, she did not predict either the First World War, the October Revolution, or the end of her world. But her death in the hungry Petrograd of the year is extremely symbolic.
Even if she died not from malnutrition, as some write, but from heart failure, as others believe. Knowing that terrible time, we can be sure that Elena Ivanovna was hungry before his death. She died on December 11, and she probably was also cold. Her nalo - a stand for the decomposition of books - of course, was ice if before that he did not burn in the bourgeoishod after books.
And if we talk about what her fate teaches us, then this is a fragility, unsteadyness and defendation of Russian well -being. We are a country of collapsing states burned in the “bourgeois” of libraries, vague memories of the great-grandfather’s estates and talking about some other, forgotten life of the remnants of family silver spoons.
And those who did not have manor and lunch in the Molokhovets style, remember that in one village there was still a log house, their little paradise, where the ancestors were full and happy ... Therefore, we value that we still have. And probably we do the right thing.
