Sl.2. Life and work of V. Rasputin.

I remember from birth, so that I can live -
Not much, not little - two words.
Two words - verbs: love and create!
Two words are the basis of all life.

2017 marks the 80th anniversary of the birth of V. G. Rasputin. The greatest Russian writer of our time, Valentin Rasputin, argued that literature is the chronicle of the people. He strictly and calmly kept this chronicle, worried and talked about the tragic turns of Russian history. Rasputin wrote simply, without pretentiousness, without trying to please anyone. He doesn’t have many works, but each one became an event.

The writer’s biography is simple, but the spiritual experience is rich, unique, inexhaustible and helps to understand where such a powerful talent came from, which sparkled with the brightest facets. Valentin Rasputin's path to literature was determined in the best possible way: in a short time, the young writer became on a par with the great masters of prose.

Sl.3.

The first story, “I forgot to ask Alyoshka...” appeared in 1961 and immediately attracted attention with its sincerity and poignant words. Critics admired the beauty of Rasputin's language, caring attitude towards the heroes, and subtle psychologism. The “village prose” movement, which took shape in the 1960s and 1970s, got its name from the light hand of Alexander Tvardovsky, editor-in-chief of the New World magazine. Valentin Rasputin was the youngest representative of this powerful movement, to which Viktor Astafiev, Vasily Shukshin, Fyodor Abramov, Vladimir Soloukhin, Boris Mozhaev, Vladimir Chivilikhin belonged.

Sl.4.

Rasputin's books became a phenomenon not only in literature, but also in public life. In 2000, the writer became a laureate of the Solzhenitsyn Prize “for the poignant expression of poetry and the tragedy of people’s life.” Rasputin is often called the last village writer - he perceived the disappearance of the village and the original Russian world as personal pain.

Sl.5. Awards

Rasputin became one of the last Russian writers; his work was based on true love for his native land and the ordinary Russian person.

Sl.7.

About Rus' - raspberry field

And the blue that fell into the river...

On which of these small paths

Tie a knot for memory,

So that she doesn't forget me?

Like fiddling with a blade of grass in your hand,

I sat on the sand on Sunday,

And I absorbed the rustle of the grass into myself,

So that the trees remember me

How he walked leisurely between them

I'm on the decline of the dying day,

How I looked at the seagulls by the bay.

On which of the roads traveled?

Maybe there's scarlet on the sunset ray -

Tie a knot for memory,

So that the earth does not forget me?

In one of his interviews, Valentin Grigorievich Rasputin said: “The land is the last thing we still have... There is nothing more precious to a person than land and water. Wherever we are born and raised, we come from what our native water and land give us. In everything - in appearance, speech, habits and so on. Love for song, poetry, our soul – everything comes from our land.”

And Valentin Grigorievich himself is the best confirmation of these words. He is flesh of the Russian land and his soul is of our land. Apparently, that is why she aches with irrepressible pain in every line of his works, because she is connected by thousands of the strongest threads with her Motherland and with her people.

Sl.8. Quote from V. Rasputin

“It’s one thing to have a mess around you, and quite another thing to have a mess inside you.”

“Oh, how difficult and honorable it is to be a writer in Rus'! Hereby. He always hurts the most. From time immemorial he is doomed to torment and feat of spirit, to a conscience seeking goodness, to an eternal striving for the ideal. And, burning himself in the throes of creativity, in the struggle with the word and for the word, he is doomed to suffer more than anyone and for everyone living on earth,” Viktor Astafiev said about Rasputin.

Sl.9.

Russian land... crane wedge

Will take you to the world of your epics …

Apple trees are the Holy Grail,
God candles - poplars.
It is seen! - there is no more beautiful prayer:
The earth is responding.

Each exhalation is a “Symbol of Faith”,
Every breath is like “Our Father.”
The sky is damp, the field is gray,
But you will give your whole life for them.

One is drawn to fresh arable land -
Immerse yourself in the palm of your hand.
She will return a hundredfold what you give her -
Just touch it without offense.

“Literature is the chronicle of the people, the writing of the people,” says the writer himself. V. G. Rasputin devoted his entire life to this writing, the chronicle of the Russian people. We look at his books as if in a mirror, peering at our own features, trying to understand what we have lost and what we have become. “It seems that he wrote all his books so that we could take a closer look at what happened. What was called the Russian man,” literary critic Valentin Kurbatov said about Rasputin’s work.

In 2012, Valentin Grigorievich turned 75 years old. The writer himself, like a real Russian person, is modest: “Not much has been done. After all, during the years that I worked, it was possible to do five or ten times more. I'll probably still write prose. But I want to keep it short and the main thing.”

However, enough years have passed since the beginning of his creative activity for us to understand the enormous significance of his books and even just his presence next to us for all of us - for those who love Russia

Level 10 . Quote from the book by V. Rasputin. "Tales". (as background for independent reading)

The truth is in memory. He who has no memory has no life.

Now the time has come to show the best qualities of a Russian person: the ability to work, the ability to stand up for oneself, understand what is happening in the country, and defend, when necessary, one’s Motherland. These are the first qualities of Russians. If they don’t have them, I still fire such people.

We cannot live with our eyes closed. Russians must understand well what force is now opposing Russia throughout the world and what can be expected from their “friends,” who may turn out to be more dangerous than enemies.”

Sl.11. Hometown.

Province, small town...

Hard strange life -

I thought, passing under the windows of those

There is nothing more majestic in the world

Cities where there would be the same towers,

Cities where we would be the same.

Under the carved under those flowing laces

The soulful song of my old people...

I'm far away now, beyond Moscow, Moscow,

You are now far from me, far away.

Valentin Grigorievich Rasputin was born on March 15, 1937 in the village of Ust-Uda, East Siberian (now Irkutsk) region into a peasant family. The village in which the future writer spent his childhood subsequently fell into a flood zone after the construction of the Bratsk hydroelectric power station (the event inspired Rasputin’s story “Farewell to Matera”, 1976).

Sl.12. Family. Small homeland.

The writer was born into the family of a young employee of the regional consumer union from the regional village of Ust-Uda, located on the banks of the Angara River halfway between Irkutsk and Bratsk. Valentin Grigorievich Rasputin said:

“I was born three hundred kilometers from Irkutsk, in Ust-Uda, on the Angara. So I am a native Siberian, or, as we say, local. My father was a peasant, worked in the timber industry, served and fought... In a word, he was like everyone else. My mother worked, was a housewife, barely managed her affairs and family - as far as I remember, she always had enough worries” (“Questions of Literature”, 1976, No. 9).

Soon the family moved to the village of Atalanka. His father was in charge of the post office, his mother worked in a savings bank. This place remained forever in the writer’s memory, settled in his heart and became the prototype of many, many Siberian villages that appeared on the pages of his works - “Farewell to Matera”, “The Last Term”, “Live and Remember” - sometimes almost under its own name : Atanovka.

The power and spaciousness of Siberian nature, the stunning feeling of delight caused by it, became the continental plate on which the soil of Rasputin’s prose grew, so striking us with its heartfelt descriptions of Siberia - the taiga, the Angara and, of course, Baikal - and the people who inhabit it , the prototypes of which were the inhabitants of Atalanka and other Siberian villages.

The river, the prototype of which was the Angara, both as a symbol and as a real geographical object, became for V. Rasputin the main attribute of his works. “I believe that she played an important role in my writing: once, at an unmarked moment, I went out to the Angara and was stunned - and I was stupefied by the beauty that entered me, as well as by the conscious and material feeling of the Motherland that emerged from it,” - he recalled.

The fellow villagers who surrounded the writer in childhood played no less a role than nature in shaping Rasputin’s worldview, his beliefs, views, and character.

The kind of “environment” that surrounded the child and influenced his soul is evidenced by the following episode, which Rasputin himself talks about: “My father worked as a postmaster, there was a shortage. He was traveling on a ship to pay some transfers, pensions, etc. He drank, apparently he drank quite a lot, and they cut off his bag where the money was. The money was small, but then for this small money they gave long sentences. They took my father, and at our house there was an inventory of our property. What property after the war? Benches-stools. But this too was subject to description and confiscation. The whole village took everything we had to their huts; when we came to describe it, there was absolutely nothing to describe. They wrote something there and left. Then the village brought us even more than it took. That's what the relationship was like. We survived together, otherwise there was no way to survive.”

This is how the understanding of community, community, arose as the first and main condition for the survival of not only an individual person, but also the entire Russian people.

In order to get a secondary education, he was forced to move alone 50 km from home to the city (the famous story “French Lessons”, 1973, would later be created about this period).

Sl.13. Quote from V. Rasputin’s book “Farewell to Mother” (as background for independent reading)

“How little, it turns out, a person has of his own, given to him from birth, and how much of him is from fate, from where he has come today and what he has brought with him.”

The Atalan school was a four-year school, and in order to continue his education, the child had to go to Ust-Uda, fifty kilometers from his home. It was impossible and there was nothing to travel such a distance to classes every day. But I wanted to study. As V. Rasputin would later write, “before that, no one from our village in the region studied. I was the first." By that time, the future writer had become not only the most literate student at school, but also a person in the village - fellow villagers often turned to him for help.

A decision was made: to move to Ust-Uda, to live there, away from my family, alone. “So, at the age of eleven, my independent life began. The famine that year has not yet gone away...” writes Rasputin.

Once a week, bread and potatoes were handed over from home, which ran out unexpectedly quickly each time. I always wanted to eat. But he had to study, and study well, otherwise he couldn’t: “What could I do? “Then I came here, I had no other business here... I would hardly have dared to go to school if I had not learned at least one lesson.”

V. Rasputin graduated from Ust-Udinsk secondary school in 1954, his certificate showed only A’s. In the same year, having successfully passed the entrance exams, he became a first-year student at the Faculty of History and Philology of Irkutsk State University.

Sl.14. Military childhood.

I will accept the unheard of, the imperishable
news coming from the war...

We are hungry children of war,
With souls burned by gunpowder.
The cake was both lunch and dinner for us,
But now we have no price...
The road that the Motherland has traversed
It was just our path.

His early childhood coincided with the Great Patriotic War. Life became difficult and half-starved, typical for millions of teenagers in the post-war country: “We lived with our grandmother in the same house, we lived together, albeit poorly. There was a little cow. The taiga and the river helped. I didn't sit at home. If I’m not at school, then I immediately run either to the river or to the forest.” “The bread of childhood was difficult,” the writer recalled many years later. But difficult times provided lessons no less important than school ones, fundamental to V. Rasputin’s work. According to the writer, “it was a time of extreme manifestation of human community, when people stood together against big and small troubles.” Those relationships between people that he observed in childhood will determine in the future how the writer poses and resolves moral and social issues in his works. The boy entered the first grade of Atalan Primary School in 1944.

Sl.15. Quote from V. Rasputin’s book “Deadline” (as background for independent reading)

It is not true that for all people there is one death - a bony, skeleton-like, evil old woman with a scythe over her shoulders. Someone came up with this to scare kids and fools. The old woman believed that each person has his own death, created in his image and likeness, exactly like him.

The war did not prevent Rasputin from studying well at school and reading, reading, reading. He read everything he could get his hands on: books, magazines, newspapers. From then on and forever, reading became a way of life, work on oneself, participation, cooperation in the work that the author does.

One of the main themes of world literature is the theme of life and death. But in Rasputin it becomes an independent plot. The death of a person in his works prompts other people to think about whether they live with dignity, whether they will live their own lives in vain, whether they are not mired in unnecessary vanity and petty, selfish desires. ("Live and Remember")

Sl.16. Times of perestroika.

That’s why I’m tormented because I don’t understand -
Where does the fate of events take us...

Captured by your luck,

Timelessness is the executioner,

Through darkness and pain and crying

Rejoices.

With a broken head

With an empty smile, -

My spirit, even if it is not itself,

Rebels.

There is a gap ahead

The poet comes to him,

Brings a covenant to Love,

Like a banner.

Everything will be ahead:

And sun and rain...

After all, the heart is still in the chest -

Not a stone.

There were no thoughts about the writing field yet, and Rasputin the student, preparing to become a teacher, studied and read a lot.

Here, in Irkutsk, his love for his small homeland, for the river on the banks of which he grew up, was already consciously manifested. Then, in the essay “Down and Upstream,” Rasputin will describe how during his student years he more than once got home from Irkutsk by boat, walked along his native Angara, and enjoyed his soul all those four hundred kilometers that separated his home from the capital of Eastern Siberia : “These trips were always a holiday for him, which he began to dream about since the winter and for which he prepared with all possible care: he saved money, carving out rubles from a meager scholarship.

On March 30, 1957, Valentin Rasputin’s first publication appeared in it - “There is absolutely no time to be bored.” From that moment on, journalism became his calling for many years. “Soviet Youth” publishes his articles about student life, about pioneers, about school, and the work of the police. Sometimes Rasputin signs with the pseudonym “R. Valentinov" or "V. Cairo", but more often publishes works under his own name. Even before graduating from university, he was accepted into the newspaper staff. Gradually, Rasputin became more and more interested in literary prose. As a result, in 1961, the first story by Valentin Rasputin, “I forgot to ask Leshka...” appeared in the anthology “Angara” (No. 1). The story began as a sketch after one of Rasputin’s trips to the timber industry enterprise. But, as we later learn from the writer himself, “the essay did not work out - it turned out to be a story. In the first half of the 60s, V. Rasputin worked as an editor of literary and dramatic programs at the Irkutsk television studio, as a literary staff member of the Krasnoyarsky Rabochiy newspaper, as a special correspondent for the Krasnoyarsky Komsomolets newspaper, and wrote stories and essays about young participants in the great construction projects of Siberia.

In 1965, an event occurred that determined the future of the young writer: he took part in the Chita zonal seminar for aspiring writers.

The writer manages to convey the intensity of human passions. His heroes are woven from the traits of national character - wise, flexible, sometimes rebellious, from hard work, from being itself. They are popular, recognizable, live next to us, and therefore are so close and understandable.

Sl. 17. Work during perestroika

Increasingly, his heroes are outwardly simple people with a far from simple inner world (“They come to the Sayan Mountains with backpacks”). It is difficult for such people to understand why people fight (“Song to be continued”), where the separation of nature and man comes from (“From sun to sun”), for them the most important thing in life is spiritual communication (“Traces remain in the snow”). More and more authorialism is visible in Rasputin’s work, the departure from journalisticism to fiction and psychologism is becoming more and more noticeable (“Edges near the sky”, “A man from this world”, “Mom has gone somewhere”). In 1967, V. Rasputin was admitted to the Union of Writers of the USSR. At the same time, Valentin Grigorievich became one of the initiators of the campaign to save Baikal from the effluents of the Baikal Pulp and Paper Mill, and then actively opposed the project of turning the northern and Siberian rivers (the project was canceled in July 1987).

Rasputin's favorite heroes - elderly, conscientious people - are trying to comprehend the new cruel reality, which seems terrible and tragic to them. Years of perestroika, market relations and timelessness have shifted the threshold of moral values. People search and evaluate themselves in the difficult modern world.

There are few of them, with an experienced soul,

Who remained strong in pitching.

And one of those who survived the general confusion and vacillation of the last two decades is Valentin Grigorievich Rasputin. He is one of those people who, according to A. I. Solzhenitsyn, carried out at the turn of the 70s of the 20th century “a silent coup without a rebellion, without a shadow of a dissident challenge”:

“Without overthrowing or declaratively exploding anything, a large group of writers began to write as if no “socialist realism” had been announced and dictated - neutralizing it mutely, they began to write in simplicity... The first among them is Valentin Rasputin.”

Sl.18. Quote from V. Rasputin’s book “Ivan’s Daughter, Ivan’s Mother.” (as background for independent reading)

Valentin Grigorievich also found himself at a crossroads. He writes little, because there are times when the artist’s silence is more disturbing and more creative than words. This is what Rasputin is all about, because he is still extremely demanding of himself. Especially at a time when new Russian bourgeois, brothers and oligarchs emerged as “heroes”.

In 1986, Rasputin was elected secretary of the board of the Union of Writers of the USSR and secretary of the board of the Union of Writers of the RSFSR. With the beginning of Perestroika, V. G. Rasputin became involved in broad social and political activities. In 1987, the writer was awarded the title of Hero of Socialist Labor, and in 1989, V. G. Rasputin was elected people's deputy of the USSR. He was a member of the Committee of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR on issues of ecology and rational use of natural resources, a member of the Credentials Committee of the Congress of People's Deputies of the USSR. “My rise to power did not end in anything. It was completely in vain... I remember with shame why I went there. My premonition deceived me. It seemed to me that there were still years of struggle ahead, but it turned out that there were only months left before the breakup. I was like a free application that was not allowed to speak.”

During the presidential elections in Russia in June 1991, he was a confidant of N. Ryzhkov.

V. G. Rasputin took a consistent anti-liberal position; he signed, in particular, an anti-perestroika letter condemning the magazine Ogonyok (Pravda, 01/18/1989). The catchphrase of counter-perestroika was P. A. Stolypin’s phrase quoted by V. Rasputin in his speech at the First Congress of People’s Deputies of the USSR: “You need great upheavals - we need Great Russia.”

Sl.19.

And we will save you, Russian speech,
Great Russian word.

I don't need the last word.

Russian will be spoken.

He is one of ours - the last great one

Reliably covers the escape.

Not icons, but books, like faces,

Remain on the height shelves.

What do you want to tell me...

...With the ancient word we are fused with the future.

Humanity is our student.

Our reading circle is the earth's orbit.

Our Motherland is Russian.

On May 4, 2000, V. G. Rasputin was awarded the A. Solzhenitsyn Prize. Alexander Isaevich, in his speech written on this occasion, noted the characteristic features of Rasputin’s literary work:

“...in everything written, Rasputin exists, as it were, not by himself, but in an undivided fusion:

– with Russian nature and with the Russian language.

For him, nature is not a chain of pictures, not material for metaphors; the writer naturally lives with it, is imbued with it as a part of it. He does not describe nature, but speaks with its voice, conveys it internally, there are many examples of this, they cannot be given here. A precious quality, especially for us, who are increasingly losing our life-giving connection with nature.

It’s the same with language. Rasputin is not a user of language, but he himself is a living involuntary stream of language. He does not look for words, does not select them, he flows with them in the same stream. The volume of his Russian language is rare among modern writers. In the “Dictionary of Language Expansion” I could not include from Rasputin even a fortieth part of his bright, apt words.”

The plots attract with the truth of life. Rasputin preferred convincing brevity. But how rich and unique is the speech of his heroes (“some kind of hidden girl, quiet”), the poetry of nature (“the hard snow playing sparklingly, taking in the crust, the first icicles rang, the air was lit up by the first melting”). The language of Rasputin’s works flows like a river, replete with wonderful-sounding words. Every line is a treasure trove of Russian literature, speech lace.

Sl.20 Quote from V. Rasputin’s book “Fire” (as background for independent reading)

To understand each other, you don’t need many words. It takes a lot not to understand

V. Rasputin's stories differ from other works in that in them the main movement of the author's soul, into which the whole vast world of Russia and the Russian village fits. The author keeps in the spotlight the current, pressing universal problems of his era.

Sl.21.Women's images of V. Rasputin.

There is divine power in a Russian woman:

Russian woman - the world is in admiration,
An eternal mystery - cannot be solved.
Russian woman, just for a moment,
If he gives you a look, you will suffer.

The Russian woman is nice, gentle,
It was as if she had come from a dream.
A Russian woman is a boundless field.
Such beauty hurts my eyes!

Russian woman - favorite song.
No matter how much you listen, your soul trembles.
Russian woman, unique.
I can’t explain how good you are!

The image of women in Russian literature is always suffering. It’s rare to find a heroine who is happy and internally independent. But there is a depth of soul. And in Rasputin, female images are expressed deeply and subtly at the same time. Such village madonnas. The writer expressively conveys their moods (gloomy, piercing) (Farewell to Matera). It is women who stand at the center of the story. Because only the Russian woman holds our spirituality and faith. In Rasputin’s works, the woman is no longer Chekhov’s Darling, but also not yet a free person. The theme of emancipation is played out by the author skillfully and subtly. After all, we are not talking about external freedom, but about internal freedom - about the courage to remain oneself. And in this regard, Rasputin’s women are much happier than their heroines by other authors. They have something to serve: traditions, the Russian way of life, the idea of sacrifice and dedication, without which a Russian woman cannot be imagined at all. They have something to lose: roots, historical and cultural ties, the land to which they are rooted in body and soul. Indeed, in an era of disasters, wars and disasters, it is the woman who is always the victim. For her, victory means comfort in the home, peace, children and husband nearby, bread on the table and confidence in the future.

All the images of Rasputin’s heroines tell us about the inexhaustible mental and physical reserves of the Russian woman. A woman is the salvation and consolation of men and the fatherland. It’s not for nothing that the Russian land is compared to a woman! The world of the writer’s works is a literary oasis for female heroines. Where she is treated with respect and warmth. Therefore, V. Rasputin’s heroines cannot live without love! How else?! And Rasputin’s heroines ask only understanding from the reader. After all, a woman is our future!

Sl.22. Quote from V. Rasputin’s book “Live and Remember” (as background for independent reading)

I might want a different fate for myself, but others have another, and this one is mine. And I won’t regret it.”

“What will happen here in a hundred years, on this earth? What cities will stand? What kind of houses? Faces? What kind of faces will people have? No, tell me, what are you living for?” – such questions are asked by the heroes of Rasputin’s famous story “Farewell to Matera”, but behind them, of course, one can see the author himself, for whom the question of both the future of each person and the future of all humanity is one of the most important.

Many who know him speak about the writer’s prophetic gift. “Rasputin is one of those seers to whom layers of existence are revealed that are not accessible to everyone, and are not called by him in direct words,” noted Alexander Solzhenitsyn. “Rasputin has always been a slightly mystical writer,” critics wrote. And this is not surprising if we remember that it was Valentin Grigorievich, more than twenty years ago, who was one of the few who foresaw the collapse of the USSR and its tragic consequences.

And - always love your Motherland, increase its glory with your deeds. So says the poet.”... Writer..., citizen...

Sl.24. Valentin Rasputin as a writer.

Valentin Grigorievich is a faithful son of the Russian land, defender of its honor. His talent is akin to a holy spring, capable of quenching the thirst of millions of Russians.

Living in unity with nature, the writer still deeply and sincerely loves Russia and believes that its strength is enough for the spiritual revival of the nation. Every work of Rasputin speaks about the main thing. It is read not only in Russia, but also in France, Spain, China... The album of essays “Siberia, Siberia” is the most read Russian book in America. Valentin Rasputin has been called “the troubled conscience of the Russian village.” But Valentin Rasputin does not know and does not want to know how to live not according to his conscience.

Sl. 25. Quote from V. Rasputin’s book “In Search of the Shore”(as background for independent reading)

Today's defiant shamelessness in literature does not count; it will pass as soon as the reader demands respect.

It is no secret to the writer who brought the country to the brink of collapse. The lack of spirituality, atheism, and cynicism of the liberal intelligentsia, rocking the common boat for the sake of their personal ambitions, led to the fact that outright criminals and lawless men seized power. The salvation of Russia depends on each of us, the writer convinces, we must change morally, be spiritually reborn in order for the country to be reborn. What was said 20 years ago has not lost its relevance today.

Our descendants will live better than us and our ancestors, provided that we prepare good soil... Our people are the kindest people. He is worldly wise, hardworking, and has a desire for holiness. But not all Russians were and are believers. Our soul was “squandered” for a long time and in different ways. Her maturation was interrupted. To free ourselves from unbelief - this must be helped both by literature and by our entire Orthodox culture. But this is not enough. We all must become nationally educated, enlightened and educated. We must put a barrier to ignorance, strengthen our natural mind with science...” (Eight days with Valentin Rasputin). Faith in Russia and in his people never left Valentin Rasputin.

The state of mind of his heroes is a special world, the depth of which is subject only to the talent of the Master. Following the author, we are immersed in the whirlpool of life events of his characters, imbued with their thoughts, and follow the logic of their actions. We can argue with them and disagree, but we cannot remain indifferent. This harsh truth of life touches the soul so much. Among the writer’s heroes there are quiet pools, there are almost blissful people, but at their core they are powerful Russian characters who are akin to the freedom-loving Angara with its rapids, zigzags, smooth expanse and dashing agility.

A school in Bratsk will be named after Valentin Rasputin.

In 2015, the name of Valentin Rasputin was assigned to the Baikal International Festival of Popular Science and Documentary Films “Man and Nature”.

Sl.27. Literary heritage of V. Rasputin.

“Valentin Grigorievich Rasputin is one of the central figures of the literary process of the second half of the 20th century. As S.P. Zalygin wrote, “Valentin Rasputin entered our literature immediately, almost without a start and as a true master of artistic expression, and to repeat that his works are significant, that, bypassing them, today it is no longer possible to seriously talk about the current Russian and there is obviously no need for all Soviet prose.”

The thread of generations cannot and should not be interrupted by “Ivans who do not remember their kinship.” The richest Russian culture is based on traditions and foundations.

Alexander Ivanovich Kuprin has a story “River of Life”. His hero, a suicidal student, reflects before his death:

“Ah, I think that nothing in the world is lost—nothing! – not only what was said, but also what was thought. All our deeds, words and thoughts are streams, thin underground springs. It seems to me that I see how they meet, merge into springs, seep up, flow into rivers - and now they are rushing wildly and widely in the irresistible River of Life. The river of life - how huge it is! It will wash away everything sooner or later, it will demolish all the strongholds that have shackled the freedom of spirit. And where there was previously a shallow of vulgarity, there will be the greatest depth of heroism. Now it will carry me away into an incomprehensible, cold distance, and maybe not more than a year later it will pour over this entire huge city, and drown it, and take with it not only its ruins, but also its very name!”

Sl. 28. River of life.

This double-edged image of the river, which on the one hand is a symbol of life, the universe itself, and on the other, an apocalyptic stream that washes away both the student himself and his entire universe into the abyss, in some strange way echoes Rasputin’s prose, in which the River became larger than a symbol, it became providence itself, giving good and taking away not only the life of an individual person, but also that which is immeasurably greater - his universe, earth, small homeland.

On the banks of this river a person is born, lives and dies - often in its deep waters, as Nastena did from “Live and Remember.”

Not only people are drowning in its waters, much more is drowning: their present world is drowning, their past is drowning. The island Matera, like the Atlantis of the New Age, symbolically goes to the bottom of the river along with the coffins of its ancestors, and it is no coincidence that before being immersed in the waters of the flood, the village burns in an apocalyptic flame: the waters of the biblical flood were only a prototype of the last fire in which the earth will be renewed.

Biography

Scenario for an open extracurricular event on literature

“Literary living room. Through the pages of the works of Valentin Rasputin."

Developed by Molotsilo Lyudmila Nikolaevna, teacher of Russian language and literature.

Borovskoy village

2012

Scenario of the open event “Literary Lounge. Through the pages of V.G. Rasputin's works."

Goals: acquaintance with the life and work of V.G. Rasputin, formation of literary and aesthetic taste, expressive reading skills, development of communicative competence, oral speech, expansion of the reader's horizons, education of patriotic feelings.

Equipment : statements by Russian writers about the role of reading and fiction, portraits and photographs of V.G. Rasputin, exhibition of books by V.G. Rasputin.

Leading . In preparation for the event, each class was invited to get acquainted with any of the works of V.G. Rasputin, read poems by fellow countrymen poets dedicated to the writer. The performances of each class will be evaluated by a jury (jury presentation). When assigning points, the independence of the answer, the confidence of the presentation, the speech of the speakers, the variety of forms of presentation of the works you have read will be taken into account (dramatization or role-playing, etc.)

Leading . V. Rasputin once wrote: “Literature has one goal - to help a person, to breathe warmth and kindness into him while reading.” Rasputin’s work fully corresponds to this statement; just remember the names of his works: “Farewell to Matera”, “Money for Maria”, “Natasha”, etc.

The writer himself loved reading books since childhood. After graduating from 4th grade in Atalanka, Rasputin wanted to continue his studies, but the secondary school was located only in the regional center of Ust-Uda, which is 50 km from his native village. “This is how my independent life began at the age of 11,” the writer recalls in the story “French Lessons.” It was difficult to study, Rasputin studied conscientiously. His knowledge was assessed only as excellent, except for the French language - pronunciation was not given. (Presentation of the story “French Lessons”, 6th grade)

3. Presenter In 1974, in an Irkutsk newspaper, V. Rasputin wrote: “I am sure that what makes a person a writer is his childhood, the ability in early childhood to see and feel what then gives him the right to take up the pen. Education, books, life experience nurture and strengthen this gift in the future, but it should be born in childhood.”

Nature, which became close to the writer in childhood, comes to life again on the pages of his works. (“In the taiga above Baikal.” 5th grade.)

Leading . “When I remember my childhood, I see myself on the shore of the old Angara, which no longer exists, near my native Atalanka, the island opposite, and the sun setting over the other shore. I have seen a lot of all sorts of beauties, man-made and miraculous. But I will die with this picture, which is dearer and closer to me than anything…” the writer later recalled. The writer did not leave his native place until he entered the Faculty of History and Philology of Irkutsk University, from which he graduated in 1959. At first, he didn’t think about writing; he just found himself without money one day, and he was offered to work part-time without interrupting his studies. He published a lot and wrote about it. What did the editors of the Irkutsk newspaper “Soviet Youth” need? Reports, notes, essays - this is where the writer got his teeth, learned to listen to people, and have conversations with them. Think about their aspirations.

Rasputin's essays written for the newspaper began to appear in the Angara almanac. From the essays the book “The Edge Near the Sky” (1966) was born. As a traveling correspondent, the young journalist traveled between the Yenisei, Angara and Lena rivers.

Working as a special correspondent for the “Krasnoyarsk Komsomolets,” Rasputin wrote articles about the construction of the Abakan-Taishet railway, about the Bratsk and Krasnoyarsk hydroelectric power stations.

In 1967, the story “Money for Maria” appeared» . By this time, Rasputin was accepted into the Union of Writers of the USSR and published 3 books of essays and stories. However, critics associate the story “Money for Maria” with the appearance of a great original writer in literature; the author himself considers this story the beginning of a new stage in his work. The story brought Rasputin all-Union and worldwide fame: it was republished more than once, a play was created based on it, staged in Moscow and then in Germany, the book was published in Sofia, Prague, Barcelona, Bratislava, Helsinki, Tokyo.

Rasputin himself in the mid-70s spoke about his story in the following way: “Events burst into a simple family, of which there are millions, forcing all moral ties to be exposed, to see everything in the light that illuminates the most intimate corners of human characters.”

(Grade 9. “Money for Mary”)

Leading . The most intimate corners of human characters, the deepest experiences of heroes, the feelings of people are shown by Rasputin in his other works. What could be more beautiful than love? Only love itself. But love can also bring suffering, love can change a person, make him better, make him more mature and wiser. This is what is said in the story “Rudolfio.” (8th grade. “Rudolfio”)

In 1976, in the railway station. “Our Contemporary” appeared the story “Farewell to Matera”, which was then published in other publications both in Russian and other languages of the USSR. The story was adapted into a film, Farewell, in 1983. The tribute talks about the flooding of villages during the construction of a hydroelectric power station. Rasputin tells readers about the spiritual losses that our people have suffered: “We should not delude ourselves, we will no longer be able to return many good traditions. Now we are talking about preserving the remaining ones, not giving up on them with the same ease and recklessness as it was until recently.” (Poem “Matera.” 8th grade)

Leading . The story “Fire,” published in 1985, “is essentially a direct continuation of Matera” (V. Rasputin). Matera was already flooded, and people moved to a new village. What is it like in the new village? What happened to him?

In one of his interviews, Rasputin said: “Life itself forced me to write a sequel to Matera. While working on Fire, I felt his intermittent and hot breath. More precisely. I didn't feel it. And he deliberately sought it. The material required this. With a calm, smooth presentation, he would not have said anything: when your house is on fire, they don’t say a prayer, but run to put it out. I didn’t have to look for the hero of my story. This is my neighbor in the village, Ivan Egorovich Slobodchikov. (Speech by 11th grade. Excerpt from the story “Fire”)

Pyotr Reutsky.

IN THE MIDDLE OF WINTER.

Valentin Rasputin.

I'm all in debt, I won't hide it.

They are all around, I toil with them.

How little I give to people

And I borrow a lot.

I borrow kindness

Let that loan continue.

I'll wander around the world,

I'll go around everyone I know,

I’ll ask who I owe and how much.

And I know someone will say: “I’ve lived”

And he will drive you out into the snow at night.

I'll freeze in the middle of winter.

Well, as old age dictates to us,

And this must be borrowed,

So that there is less evil left in people.

Having accepted it, I will not give it back

To friends or anyone else.

I'll soon curse you,

Than I’ll take it to someone else’s house.

I know both sadness and laughter,

Good and evil.

But more in the light

Those who greet you like a loved one,

He won't send you out into the snow at night.

Anatoly Grebnev.

MATERA.

Listen to your soul -

She's still alive

She did not die in debauchery and wine:

Keeping myself

Hiding myself

In prayer she suffers deeply.

There's a secret country there

There Russia is your Matera.

It is inhabited by Slavs, as of old.

The sun is shining there

In the midst of eternal space,

And it is not farmed out to enemies.

The sun is shining there

And, wherever I look, -

The land is well-groomed and I won’t turn around.

Under the ringing of bells

The ears are swaying,

And the saints pray in the monasteries for Rus'.

Let today in Rus'

Feasts are celebrated by non-Russians,

And evil becomes Satan, becoming more and more impudent, -

Russia is my Rus',

I won't trust myself

You will rise again in all your glory!

The Russian spirit is not broken!

You, having found support in him,

Decide your own destiny.

Listen to your soul

Open your Matera,

Wake up, dear people -

And become yourself!

Vasily Kozlov

OLD WOMAN.

V. Rasputin.

I was busy. She was fidgeting.

Has endured a lot of troubles...

Granted by God's mercy

This woman is a hundred years old.

I woke up with the sun,

Silently smiled at the sun,

And she was baptized at sunrise.

She was somehow silent for the most part,

Well, if she grumbled,

Not from the heart, from worries.

On one day I suffered -

Didn't leave any trouble.

And went into oblivion

It was as if she wasn't there.

In the middle of the cramped light -

A coffin dressed in the color of heaven,

Sons and grandchildren are crowding around.

“Say goodbye, come…”

And dry hands lie

During the day for the first time these hands

Resting on your chest

Scenario

Music is playing

1. Presenter 1:

Contemporaries often do not understand their writers or do not realize their true place in literature, leaving it to the future to evaluate, determine their contribution, and place emphasis. There are plenty of examples of this. But in modern literature there are undoubted names, without which neither we nor our descendants can imagine it. One of these names is Valentin Grigorievich Rasputin.

2. Presenter 2:

Talking about Rasputin is easy and at the same time very difficult. He absorbed and reflected in his works the best of Russian classics. The style of Lev Nikolaevich Tolstoy. Other Russian and Soviet classics. He stood up for the little man in his work. For Russian land. His works, filled with bitterness, pain, and love for Russia, tell us about the truth. The truth is - He who has no memory has no life.

3. Presenter 1. Address to guests:

Dear friends, we have gathered today to touch the work of this Russian prose writer and publicist, to remember his amazing works

4. The song “I Dream of a Village” plays

5. Presenter 2:

Valentin Rasputin was born on March 15, 1937 in the Irkutsk region, in the village of Ust-Uda, located on the banks of the Angara River, three hundred kilometers from Irkutsk. The future writer entered first grade at the Atalanta Primary School in 1944. Here, in Atalanta, having learned to read, Rasputin fell in love with books forever.

6. Presenter 1:

After graduating from 4th grade in Atlanta, Rasputin. Of course, I wanted to continue my studies. But the school, where there was a fifth grade, was located only in the regional center of Ust-Uda, and this is 50 kilometers from his native village. You can’t run into people every day - you have to move there to live, alone, without parents, without family.

7. Presenter 2:

“So at the age of 11, my independent life began,” wrote Valentin Rasputin about the year 1948 in the story “French Lessons.” It was difficult to study: it was necessary to overcome hunger (his mother gave him bread and potatoes once a week, but there was always not enough of them. Rasputin studied conscientiously.

8. Presenter 1:

“What could I do? - Then I came here, I had no other business here... I hardly dared to go to school if even one lesson remained unlearned.” His knowledge was assessed only as excellent, except perhaps for the French language - pronunciation was not given.

9. Presenter 2:

The writer did not leave his native place until he entered the Faculty of History and Philology of Irkutsk University, from which he graduated in 1959. At first, he didn’t think about a vocation as a writer - he just found himself without money one day (they didn’t give him a scholarship), he was offered to work without interrupting his studies.

10. Presenter 1:

He published a lot, wrote notes, reports, essays. Here Rasputin “got his chops”, learned to listen to people, have conversations with them, and think about their aspirations. All this is so necessary for a great writer.

11. Presenter 2:

In 1967, the story “Money for Maria” was published in the Angara almanac. By this time, Rasputin was accepted into the Union of Writers of the USSR and published three books of essays and stories. But it is with the story “Money for Maria” that critics associate the appearance of a great original writer in literature. The story brought Rasputin all-Union and worldwide fame.

12. Presenter 1:

Rasputin always had a special relationship with women, mothers, and old women. All his inconspicuous, quiet heroines have a restless and conscientious soul; they are worried that conscience is “thinner” in people. His shy, resigned and pure old women, all these Annas, Darias, Nastyas, Alenas, stood in the way of Evil and Fearlessness. The Patriarch once said: “...the white scarves of grandmothers saved the Orthodox Church from destruction.” The old women of Valentin Rasputin, our mothers and women of Russia saved the conscience of the people, warmed their soul, and breathed strength.

The story “The Last Term,” which V. Rasputin himself called the main one of his books, touched on many moral problems. In the work, V. Rasputin showed relationships within the family, raised the problem of respect for parents, which is very relevant in our time, and raised the question of conscience and honor, which affected every hero of the story.

13.Staging of 2 scenes from “Deadline”.

14. Presenter 2:

In 1976, the story “Farewell to Matera” was published, which established Rasputin’s reputation as one of the leading Russian writers. A person can live fully only with love for the Motherland, preserving in his soul the centuries-old traditions of his people. In the story “Farewell to Matera,” Rasputin shows how the Russian people feel about the destruction of their national world “in the name of progress.” A simple Russian woman, Daria, has been resisting for 5 years, defending her old house and the entire village from a pogrom. For her, Matera and her home are the embodiment of the Motherland. Daria defends not the old hut, but the Motherland, where her grandfathers and great-grandfathers lived. Her Russian heart aches - “as if it were on fire, Christ’s heart, it burns and burns, aches and aches.”

15.Staging of a dialogue between a grandson and grandmother.

16. Presenter 1:

Siberia still holds tight to Valentin Rasputin, its singer and protector. Every spring he comes here, visits his native villages and lives until late autumn not far from Irkutsk, trying to stay longer where Baikal releases his daughter Angara. Rasputin’s father’s share turned out to be related to Baikal. It was truly a full cup of goodness and hardship that fell to be drunk on these shores...

17. Poem by heart. Slides about Baikal.

18. Presenter 2.

Dear friends! We think that you are also familiar with the work of Valentin Rasputin. What works of the writer have you read? Share your impressions.

19. Controversy with the audience. (words of girls - 6 people)

19. Presenter 2:

Thanks for your feedback. Each of you spoke about Rasputin’s heroines, about women, about mothers. The theme of a woman as a mother runs like a refrain through his prose. With the heroes of Valentin Grigorievich Rasputin's stories and stories, we are not afraid to live in the 21st century. We have Faith, Soul, Conscience. And that means Russia is eternal. Valentin Rasputin is still in service today. We wish him health, creative success and grateful readers.

And you, friends. Love your mothers, appreciate every minute of communication with them, take care of them.

There is a song about mom, slides.

Controversy:

1. I understand Rasputin’s attitude towards a woman who is a mother, a woman who is a wife, and a woman who maintains family ties. In the story “Vasily and Vasilisa,” the author showed a heroine who was persistent, strong, and raised seven children. Vasilisa was never able to forgive her husband, who was responsible for the death of her unborn child. I agree with Rasputin’s position; not everything in life can be forgiven.

2. I respect the work of Rasputin, in which from the very beginning attention to women prevails. The heroine of his first story, “Money for Maria,” is a saleswoman at the only store in the entire village. The auditor discovered a shortage of 1000 rubles. It would seem that Rasputin should have burst into indignation over the theft of public property. But the writer did exactly the opposite, made Maria a heroine with a capital letter. Maria Kuzma's husband decides to collect money from the world one by one, borrowing from whomever he can. And the writer at the same time looks inside the human soul, talks about who we are, reflects on where selfishness, callousness, and soullessness came from in people.

3. In my opinion, the most interesting is Rasputin’s story “Live and Remember.” I really sympathize with the main character, Nastena, who threw herself into the Angara River because of the desertion of her husband Andrei. The author himself wrote that Nastena “was not killed by the village,” she was killed by her husband’s desertion, by the unbearable mental anguish that she suffered in the close world of her fellow villagers and in her home. Nastena’s death, as Rasputin wrote, is “a severe test of the moral law.”

4.Rasputin was called a “countryman” for his passion for the countryside theme. However, the writer also raises the problems of the city on the pages of his works. The heroine of the story “To the Same Land,” published in 1995, Pashuta, lived in the city for more than 40 years, but everything here was completely foreign to her. The city is environmentally unfavorable; the largest aluminum smelter operates here. In such an atmosphere, both people and their souls broke. In the village world, everything is simple and wise, kind, humane.

5. In the story “Women’s Conversation,” Natalya “teaches life” to her granddaughter Vika, who has already stumbled in life. And both, grandmother and granddaughter, turn to the Lord, “Lord, have mercy!”

6. One of Rasputin’s last stories, “Ivan’s Daughter, Ivan’s Mother,” tells how the heroine of the story went against the usual course of life, in which a rapist, having given a bribe, can get away with impunity. The ending of this story is optimistic. The heroine's son Ivan, having served in the army, returns to his native place to build a church in the village with a team of carpenters. This story inspires faith in the formation of a new person who has found his place in the life of Russia.

Extracurricular event about the life and work of V. G. Rasputin"Born of Siberia for Russia"

Progress of the event

Teacher's opening speech

“There are such concepts: spiritual memory and spiritual experience of a person, which should be present in each of us, regardless of our age.”

V. Rasputin

2 years passed without V. G. Rasputin, who only a few hours did not live to see his birthday. March 15th2017 is the 80th anniversary of the birth of Valentin Rasputin. “There are such concepts: spiritual memory and spiritual experience of a person, which should be present in each of us, regardless of our age,” said the writer. I think you and I will listen to his words, we will try to learn as much as possible about the famous writer, about his richspiritual experience, unique, inexhaustible, and let’s try to understand where such a powerful talent came from, which sparkled with the brightest facets.

Valentin Grigorievich Rasputin entered our literature immediately, almost without a start and as a true master of words. It is difficult to imagine Russian literature today without the novels and stories of our fellow countryman. His works have gained well-deserved popularity in our country and abroad.

Valentin Rasputin's path to literature was determined in the best possible way: in a short time, the young writer became on a par with the great masters of prose.

We invite you to listen to the 7th grade children who will tell us about the life and work of the writer.

Valentin Grigorievich Rasputin (born March 15, 1937, Ust-Uda village, Irkutsk region) - Russian prose writer, representative of the so-called. "village prose".

Born into a peasant family; spent his childhood in the village of Atalanka. Having graduated from the local elementary school, he was forced to move alone fifty kilometers from home, where the secondary school was located (the famous story “French Lessons” - 1972) would later be created about this period.

Let's watch an excerpt from a documentary where Rasputin talks about his childhood.

Slide 3. After school I entered the Faculty of History and Philology of Irkutsk University. During his student years, he became a freelance correspondent for a youth newspaper. One of his essays caught the editor's attention. Later, this essay under the title “I forgot to ask Lyoshka” was published in the anthology “Angara” (1961).

When you entered university, did you dream of writing?

Valentin Rasputin: No, I didn’t dream of it. True, I really loved literature at school. Like many teenagers, he wrote poetry. I almost wrote a poem for graduation. But there were no high thoughts. I went to history and philology only to return to the village and become a teacher. It seemed to me: this is the most I can do. Yes, I was drawn to this.

During my senior years I had to work part-time on the radio and in a youth newspaper. At that time I became friends with Vampilov. He studied a year younger, but already then he published a book of stories, and I envied him a little. "Why am I worse?" - I thought and also began to write stories. They were, of course, naive.

Slide 4. After graduating from the university in 1959, Rasputin worked for several years in newspapers in Irkutsk and Krasnoyarsk, and often visited the construction of the Krasnoyarsk hydroelectric power station and the Abakan-Taishet highway. Essays and stories about what he saw were later included in his collections “Bonfires of New Cities” and “The Land Near the Sky.”

Slide 5. In 1965, Rasputin showed several new stories to V. Chivilikhin, who came to Chita for a meeting of young writers of Siberia, who became the “godfather” of the aspiring prose writer.

Since 1966, Rasputin has been a professional writer. Since 1967, member of the Union of Writers of the USSR.

Slide 6. Rasputin’s first book of stories, “A Man from This World,” was published in 1967 in Krasnoyarsk. In the same year, the story “Money for Maria” was published.

The writer’s talent was revealed in full force in the story “The Deadline” (1970), declaring the maturity and originality of the author.

Slide 7. This was followed by the story “French Lessons” (1973), the story “Live and Remember” (1974) and “Farewell to Matera” (1976).

In 1981, new stories were published: “Natasha”, “What to convey to the crow”, “Live a century - love a century”.

The appearance of Rasputin’s story “Fire” in 1985, distinguished by the severity and modernity of the problem, aroused great interest among the reader

Slide 8. In recent years, the writer has devoted a lot of time and effort to social and journalistic activities, without interrupting his creativity. In 1995, his story “To the Same Land” was published; essays “Down the Lena River”; in 1996 - the stories “Memorial Day”; in 1997 - “Unexpectedly”; “Father's Limits” (“Vision” and “In the Evening”).

Sl.7.

About Rus' - raspberry field

And the blue that fell into the river...

On which of these small paths

Tie a knot for memory,

So that she doesn't forget me?

Like fiddling with a blade of grass in your hand,

I sat on the sand on Sunday,

And I absorbed the rustle of the grass into myself,

So that the trees remember me

How he walked leisurely between them

I'm on the decline of the dying day,

How I looked at the seagulls by the bay.

On which of the roads traveled?

Maybe there's scarlet on the sunset ray -

Tie a knot for memory,

So that the earth does not forget me?

Sl.8. Quote from V. Rasputin

“It’s one thing to have a mess around you, and quite another thing to have a mess inside you.”

Sl.9.

Russian land... crane wedge

Will take you to the world of your epics …

Apple trees are the Holy Grail,
God candles - poplars.
It is seen! - there is no more beautiful prayer:
The earth is responding.

Each exhalation is a “Symbol of Faith”,
Every breath is like “Our Father.”
The sky is damp, the field is gray,
But you will give your whole life for them.

One is drawn to fresh arable land -
Immerse yourself in the palm of your hand.
She will return a hundredfold what you give her -
Just touch it without offense.

Sl.11. Hometown.

Province, small town...

Hard strange life -

I thought, passing under the windows of those

There is nothing more majestic in the world

Cities where there would be the same towers,

Cities where we would be the same.

Under the carved under those flowing laces

The soulful song of my old people...

I'm far away now, beyond Moscow, Moscow,

You are now far from me, far away.

Sl.12. Family. Small homeland.

The fellow villagers who surrounded the writer in childhood played no less a role than nature in shaping Rasputin’s worldview, his beliefs, views, and character.

Sl.14. Military childhood.

I will accept the unheard of, the imperishable
news coming from the war...

We are hungry children of war,
With souls burned by gunpowder.
The cake was both lunch and dinner for us,
But now we have no price...
The road that the Motherland has traversed
It was just our path.

Sl.16. Times of perestroika.

That’s why I’m tormented because I don’t understand -
Where does the fate of events take us...

Captured by your luck,

Timelessness is the executioner,

Through darkness and pain and crying

Rejoices.

With a broken head

With an empty smile, -

My spirit, even if it is not itself,

Rebels.

There is a gap ahead

The poet comes to him,

Brings a covenant to Love,

Like a banner.

Everything will be ahead:

And sun and rain...

After all, the heart is still in the chest -

Not a stone.

Great Russian word.

Humanity is our student.

Our reading circle is the earth's orbit.

Our Motherland is Russian.
