Gogol is an evil spirit. Scientific research project with literature: “Mysticism in the life and creativity of Mikoli Vasilyovich Gogol”

Father Mikoli, Vasil Opanasovich Gogol, was 14 years older than his mother, and the story of their acquaintance is truly remarkable. Even later, Vasily, having trained his new squad, Maria, seemed to be unable to speak in his sleep. A booming voice said: “Vasil! Your squad has been born! Love the unlovable! A few days later, the Kosyarsky neighbors gave birth to a daughter, and when they began to nurse her, they learned that she was unable to sleep.
They started fighting when Maria turned 15. For many years, the stench was not small for children, and even after passionate prayers to Mikola the Pleasant, to whom the church in Dykanets was dedicated, the birth of the first church was named in honor of St. Mikola.
Vasil Gogol died in 1825 from a very strange and rare illness - “fear of death.” At that time it was believed that the people who were ill with her were guilty before God, and the illness itself was transmitted during recessions.
All of Mikol's first creations are closely connected with old folk beliefs and legends. “The Grass Night” talks about Holy Rusalia. Everything is here: crazy games, trash, witches, “dancing and squelching of mermaids with sniffles,” inversion. Gogol used his hero’s words: “Who in his life has not known evil spirits?”
There are many ways of spitting with evil spirits, and all of them are described in the works of the great esotericist Gogol, whom everyone knew and Pushkin himself respected as a non-existent “contactor” with a dark, devilish light. You can vikorist evil spirits for your own purposes, Gogol sings, like the gypsies at the Sorochinsky Fair, who trade in fear. It is possible, following it, to follow these sayings in everyone, like Petro from “The Night Before Ivan Kupala.” It is possible to outwit, to take away the trash from the fools, as the Cossack messenger from “Knowledge of Letters” tells.
When Gogol began his literary career, few well-known Russians seriously accepted what we call today paranormal and psi-phenomena. Actors of the day respected that Mikola Vasilyovich was endowed with a rare gift of the souls of people, like the chaklun from “The Terrible Revenge”, flowing onto them, subjugating his power.
Quietly and unmoved, Gogol felt that he was no longer in the midst of those closest to him. Having revealed terrible stories and fairy tales, warmly barked and told tales... singing romance in a wonderful tenor! With an unknown spouse, the writer became gloomy, withdrawn, lounging in the closets of the room, or climbing onto the sofa or couch, shaking his head and falling asleep. The noise of the guests is loud youmu dharma. It was a great effort for Gogol to get to know new people. As it was clear, the mood of this young man sank, and he began to drink, hoping for ill health. Varto remind you, readers, that the chakluns themselves are trying to get away from “their own”, perceiving the threat of invasion by “strangers”.
A number of participants pointed out specific details and characteristic details of Gogol’s behavior. For example, the writer Aksakov is happy that when he caught Gogol at work “in the next fantastic ode: instead of it there are long, dark-smelling panchokhas, thicker than knees, instead of a frock coat there is a purple oxamite cloak, the neck is wrapped in iron satin burgundy and black scarf; on the head is a crimson, gold-embroidered cap of an astronomer.” Gogol was amazed for a long time at the friends of Aksakov and Zhukovsky, who disturbed him, - clearly not knowing them. You were in a trance at the station. These other similar testimonies (including Pushkin’s), sound like Gogol’s ecstatic stanza, pain, incredible nervousness, the ability to fall into a trance, the rare gift of Mitta’s abstraction from estrangement Whose - all this is due to the power of shamans and chakluns.
Kozhen chaklun and shaman endure the so-called “shaman’s illness” - the camp in which he experiences life and death. It is clear that Gogol, having become more expensive in Italy, suffered an illness - he was led by terrible sightings in reality. After this, he became extremely devout and spoke with friends in no other way than in the tone of a prophet.

Gogol, having created all his early works since then, is still alive in St. Petersburg. Then he moved from place to place and composed “Dead Souls”. It took about 15 rocks. Pratsyuvav richly, but may not have done anything. Then the rapt began to burn, it was written: another volume of “Dead Souls” was burned, written again and burned again... From the looks of it, the victims of the ancient pagan religion and chakluna, these actions, unconscious for those who are absent, loom deeper meanings. The Bahamas need to give more of what is in you. And those who burn near the fire are immediately consumed to the divine throne.
The writer's death was as wondrous as his life. Gogol became uneasy for no apparent reason and began to look like other people. In the hour of illness, in a state of unconsciousness, he constantly repeated the words of his divine hero from “Notes of the Divine.”
Neumovirnye pods accompanied the body of the writer of 1931. It was then decided to transfer Gogol’s ashes from the center of the St. Daniel’s Monastery to Novodivych. About 30 famous scribes took part in the ceremony. These were the fates of military atheism, and no one thought about the sacrilege of such an action. What a shock it was for those present when a skeleton without a skull was discovered near the opened trune, and the dead head appeared buried nearby.
The rituals of dismembering bodies during the hour of worship are familiar to archaeologists as they excavated burial mounds in Ukraine and today’s Russia. Ale vik tsikh pokhovan 3-4 thousand. Rokiv. What happened to Gogol after his death? At this meal, which was paid for everything, no one could be identified.
It is certain that after the funeral, the writer A. Ivanov went to Leningrad, burying the rib of Gogol’s skeleton in front of us as a “souvenir”. There, he arrived to his friends, hanging his coat at the front room (he checked what was lying in the inner cauldron, buried in an old newspaper, a rib). Rozmov told his friends that this is a unique speech. Vony was asked to show me. Ivanov stood at the front, pulled his coat over his gut... and there was no rib there! Surrounded by three friends who had not left the hall, and there was no one in the hut, the door was bolted. And during this period of robbing the graves, Ivanov Raptovo died from an unknown attack of wild heat and loss of pulse.
Another amateur of “souvenirs for a riddle”, writer I. Malishkin, who pulled the foil from the embellishment of the trumpet, without having lived past this month - at the stage of depression, hung on the mountain of the former Spoils of the SRSR writers. The director of the district, S. Arakcheev, having taken the cares from the yellow skin out of the brushes of Gogol’s skeleton, destroying with his mind: every night I dreamed of the cares and Gogol, who, out of trouble, threatened him with a finger; So the evils came to life and smothered the villains. The party babbled and knew the old woman, and the old man fell at his feet, saying, why should I bother with such a misfortune? “And take care of this and entrust the dead man you robbed with the throne!” - Vidannya was pleased. Having done this to Arakcheev, I stopped having nightmares, and my overstrained psyche was no longer able to recover.
It should be noted that not everything is to be believed in the motor history, connected with the manifestations of clairvoyance and telepathy of M. V. Gogol for life, which was formed by the forces of the inner world, falls in trance, and especially in detail. itsi yogo perekhovanya ta further for cym pods, associated with the rapt death of people, who were engaged in looting the grave of the great writer. Today's activists are superstitious about the riotous revelation of Gogol's followers, and then those who, having desecrated his ashes, dug up and excavated (and plundered!) the trench containing the remains of the author of “Dead Souls.” We are deprived of the ability to guess the words from Mikoli Vasilyovich’s commandment:
“It will be disgraceful and hard for those who are attracted to the known flesh, which is no longer mine, and let them be punished for it...”

Oleksandr Yevteev,
esoteric, m. Kiev

1st quarter is equivalent to 200 days of birth of Mikoli Vasilyovich Gogol. In the history of Russian literature, it is important to know the mystery figure. The brilliant artist of the word has lost dozens of immortal works and so many secrets, until the life and creativity of the writer are unknown to the descendants.

Even for his life they called him a Chen, a roaster, and a mystic, and in his creativity fantasy and reality, the beautiful and the treacherous, the tragic and the comical were intertwined.

There are a lot of myths associated with the life and death of Gogol. Already several generations of the writer’s successive creativity cannot come up with an unambiguous answer to the question: why Gogol is not friends, having finally burned another volume of “Dead Souls” and why they burned and, of course, misfortune happened to the brilliant writer.

Narodzhennya

The exact date of the publication of the writing became a mystery for those who wrote it. It was initially said that Gogol was born on the 19th of March 1809, then on the 20th of March 1810. And even after his death, it was established from the publication of the metric that the Mayday writer was born on the 20th of February 1809, then. 1 week for a new style.

Gogol was born in a region steeped in legends. The order from Vasylivka, who was the mother of his father, was known to the whole world by Dikanka. At that time in the village they were showing the oak tree where Maria and Mazepa and the shirt of the sewn Kochubey took place.

As a boy, Mikoli Vasilyovich’s father went to a temple in the Kharkov province, where there was a miraculous image of the Mother of God. One day, when I saw the Queen of Heaven in my dreams, I pointed out to the child who was sitting on the side of her legs: “... Your squad is yours.” I recently learned from my seven-month-old daughter that I was the same child, who had been in my sleep for a long time. With a length of thirteen rocks, Vasil Opanasovich continued to follow his sudzhena. After that, the ceremony was repeated, asking for the girl’s hand in marriage. Through the river the young people became friends, write hrono.info.

Tamman Carlo

About an hour later, the family's son Mykola, named after St. Myra of Myra, appeared in front of the miraculous icon of whom Maria Ivanivna Gogol held a monastery.

In the form of his mother, Mikola Vasilyovich calmed down his fine spiritual organization, sensitivity to God-fearing religion and interest to the point of transference. Father's distrust was in power. It’s not surprising that Gogol was buried in secrets, prophetic dreams, fatal signs that later appeared on the pages of his works.

When Gogol began studying at the Poltava School, his younger brother Ivan died in poor health. For Mikoly, the shock was so strong that he had to be taken from school and sent to the Nizhyn Gymnasium.

At the gymnasium, Gogol became famous as an actor in the gymnasium theater. Behind the words of the comrades, they spontaneously barked, joked with friends, noted their funny rice, made twists, for which they were punished. In this case, he lost his secretiveness - he didn’t tell anyone about his plans, for which he rejected the name of the Dark Dwarf on behalf of one of the heroes of Walter Scott’s novel “The Black Dwarf”.

Persha bedroom book

At the gymnasium, Gogol dreams of broad community activity, which would allow him to earn much “for the great good, for Russia.” With these broad and unimaginable plans, we arrived in St. Petersburg and recognized our first important disappointment.

Gogol publishes his first novel - therefore, on the basis of the German romantic school "Hans Küchelgarten". The pseudonym V. Alov took over Gogol’s name from the criticism that fell, but the author himself so seriously accepted the failure that he bought unsold copies of the book from stores and burned them. Until the end of his life, the writer did not know to anyone that Alov was his pseudonym.

Years ago, Gogol served in one of the departments of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. “Copying out the foolish lords of the lords,” the young clerk respectfully marveled at the lives and lives of his fellow officials. This caution was needed later for the creation of the famous stories “Nis”, “Notes of the Divine” and “The Overcoat”.

"Evenings on a farm near Dikanka", or children's guesses

After meeting Zhukovsky and Pushkin, the mature Gogol began to write one of his greatest works - “Evenings on a farm near Dikanka.” The offensive parts of “Evening” were published under the pseudonym of the beekeeper Rudy Panka.

Several episodes of the book, in which life was intertwined with legends, were inspired by Gogol’s childhood visions. So, in the story “Night of Trauma or Drowning” there is an episode when the mother, who has transformed into a black cat, tries to strangle the little centurion, and as a result gets paws with slimy claws, suggesting the real story of life writing

It seems that the fathers have deprived their sons of the house, and the rest of the household has gone to bed. Mikosha's raptom - that's what Gogol was called in his childhood - sensing a yelp, and after shaking his gut, he started to sneak. The child was tortured to death, but she had the courage to burn her guts and get kicked out of the stakes. “It seemed to me that I had drowned the people,” Gogol wrote later.

Why is Gogol not a friend?

Unconcerned with the success of his other book, Gogol was still inspired to devote literary work to his major tasks. I contributed to the Women's Patriotic Institute, where I often told young ladies about the beginnings of history. The fame of the talented “investigator-reporter” reached St. Petersburg University, where he was asked to give lectures at the Department of Foreign History.

The life of a special writer was lost without change. It is obvious that Gogol has no intention of making friends. For a long time, the writers were highly respected for having joined one of the first beautiful court ladies, Oleksandra Yosipivna Smirnova-Rosset, and writing for her when she went with a man from St. Petersburg.

Gogol was later buried by Countess Ganna Mikhailovna Vielgorskaya, write gogol.lit-info.ru. The writer learned about the Vielgorsky homeland from St. Petersburg. Enlightened and kind people warmly accepted Gogol and appreciated his talent. The writer especially collaborated with the Vielgorskys’ young daughter, Ganna Mikhailovna.

Shchodo Countess Mikola Vasilyovich showed himself to be a spiritual mentor and teacher. For the sake of her, she wanted to celebrate Russian literature, trying to encourage her interest in everything Russian. In her family, Ganna Mikhailovna always celebrated Gogol’s health and literary successes, which she encouraged in a new hope for reciprocity.

Following the family retelling of the Vielgorskys, Gogol ventured to create a proposition about Ganna Mikhailovna based on the 1840s. “However, early negotiations with my relatives immediately confirmed that the instability of their married state excludes the possibility of such a love affair,” it appears in the new version of Gogol’s conversation with the Vielgorskys.

After a recent attempt to control his family life, Gogol wrote to Vasily Andriyovich Zhukovsky in 1848 that he was not guilty, as it seems, of tying himself to any ties on earth, including his family nim life.

"Viy" - "people's perekaz", invented by Gogol

The buried history of Ukraine inspired Gogol to create the story “Taras Bulba”, which was published before the collection of 1835 “Mirgorod”. The sample of "Mirgorod" was handed over to the Minister of Public Education Uvarov for presentation to Emperor Mikola I.

Before the collection, one of Gogol’s most popular works is the story “Viy”. In a note before the book, Gogol wrote that the story “is a folk retelling,” as if he conveyed to himself that he felt that nothing had changed. For the time being, the researchers have not yet found any work of folklore that would accurately spell out “Viy”.

The name of the fantastic underground spirit - Viya - was invented by the writer as a result of the name of the Volodar baker of the "salious Niya" (from Ukrainian mythology) and the Ukrainian word "Viya" - poveka. Zvidsi – long-lasting evolutions of Gogol’s character.

Vtecha

Zustrich 1831 fate with Pushkin is of small importance for Gogol. Oleksandr Sergeyovich encouraged the beginnings of writing from the literary community of St. Petersburg, and gave it the plots of “The Inspector General” and “Dead Souls”.

The play "The Inspector General", first staged on stage in 1836, was warmly received by the Emperor himself, who, in exchange for a copy of the book, presented Gogol with a diamond ring. However, critics were not so generous with their praise. Surviving the disappointment became the beginning of a protracted depression for the writer, whose fate had flown beyond the cordon “to loosen the tightness.”

However, it is important to explain the decision about exit in terms of the reaction to criticism. Gogol bought some money before the premiere of The Inspector General. He left for the cordon near Chernya in 1836, not knowing all of Western Europe, having instead spent time in Italy. In 1839, the writer turned to Fatherlandism, and through the river again told his friends about leaving and promised to bring the next volume of “Dead Souls”.

One of the early days of 1840, Gogol was seen off by his friends Aksakov, Pogodin and Shchepkin. As soon as the crew arrived, the stench noticed that black gloom had covered half the sky. It became unbearably dark, and friends frowned at Gogol’s fate. It appeared, unexpectedly...

Sickness

In 1839, in Rome, Gogol contracted severe swamp fever (malaria). I was amazed at the end of death, but the severity of the illness led to a progressive mental and physical breakdown of health. How do the deeds of the descendants of the life of Gogol, a sick writer, write. He began to suffer from attacks that insipidity that is characteristic of malarial encephalitis. But the worst thing for Gogol was the sight of what was approaching his illness.

As Gogol’s sister Ganna Vasilievna wrote, behind the cordon the writer was determined to take away from anyone the “blessed one,” and if the preacher Innocent presented him with the image of the Savior, then the writer took him as a sign to go to Jerusalem, to the Holy Sepulcher.

However, the stay in Jerusalem did not give any significant results. “Never before have I been so little satisfied with the state of my heart, as in Jerusalem and after Jerusalem,” said Gogol. “Being at the Holy Sepulcher, I would be there in order to see in the place how much coldness of my heart is in me, as a lot of selfishness that self-love."

I became more and more ill. In the spring of 1850, having found his feet in Odessa, Gogol began to feel better about himself, once again becoming cheerful and cheerful, as before. In Moscow, having read the chapters of another volume of “Dead Souls” to his friends, he began to work with the sub-war energy.

However, as soon as the other volume of “Dead Souls” was completed, Gogol felt devastated. More and more he began to feel the “fear of death”, which was what his father was suffering from.

The difficult situation was punctuated by conversations with the fanatical priest, Matviy Kostyantinovsky, who reproached Gogol for his obvious sinfulness, demonstrating the fears of the Last Judgment, thoughts about which tormented the writer from his early childhood. Gogol's confessor, coveting Pushkin's veneration, bowed down before the talent of such a man, Mikola Vasilyovich.

At the end of the year 12, 1852, fate began to rise, the circumstances of which are no longer a mystery for biographers. Mikola Gogol prayed until he was three years old, after which he took his briefcase, pulled papers from it, and ordered him to throw it at the fire. Having crossed himself, he turned around and began to cry uncontrollably.

It is important that on those same nights he burned another volume of “Dead Souls.” Protely, the manuscript of another one was known among the books. And those who were burned in the fireplace are still unclear, write Komsomolskaya Pravda.

After this night, Gogol became even more overwhelmed by the power of fear. I suffer from taphephobia - the fear of being killed by live bait. This fear was so strong that the writer had repeatedly given letters of entrustment to take away anything, if there were obvious signs of a corpse disposition.

It was impossible for the doctors to recognize his mental illness and treated him with medicines to weaken him. It seems that doctors immediately began to embrace this type of depression, the writer having lived a long time, writes Sedmitsa.Ru, quoting Associate Professor of the Perm Medical Academy M.I. Davidov, who analyzed hundreds of documents related to Gogol’s illness.

Skull vault

Mikola Vasilovich Gogol died on the 21st of 1852. He was buried in the center of the St. Daniel's Monastery, and in 1931 the monastery and church on his territory were closed. When Gogol’s remains were transferred to the cemetery, it was discovered that a skull had been stolen from the body of the deceased.

According to the version of the professor of the Literary Institute, writer V.G. Lidin, who was present at the grave, Gogol’s skull was taken from the grave in 1909. That rock's philanthropist and founder of the theater museum, Oleksiy Bakhrushin, encouraged the efforts to obtain Gogol's skull for him. "At the Bakhrushinsky Theater Museum in Moscow, there are three non -captivity of the tumors: one of them, for the allowances, is the skull of the artist Shchepkina, INNSHI - Gogol, about the trial - NICHO not VIDOMO," wrote LIDIN at his own spores "transferred to the Prah of Gogol."

A little about the theft of the writer’s head later in the history of Mikhailo Bulgakov, the great master of Gogol’s talent, in his novel “Meister ta Margarita”. In the book, he wrote about the head of the right MASSOLIT that was stolen from trunya, cut by tram wheels at the Patriarchal Headquarters.

Today is the national day of our great fellow countryman Mikoli Vasilyovich Gogol

« This life seems so great, therefore it is a terrible thing, the sense of which will remain unsolved for a long time" I. Aksakov

Gogol - post office
leaflet to the cob of the 20th century

Most often, our followers, like those of the writer himself, Mikoly Gogol represent and have represented as a type of writer - a satirist, a twister of marital affairs and a wonderful humorist. You don’t know him at all as a mystic, as a religious thinker and publicist, and as a (!) author of prayers. With all the spiritual prose, the reader knows (and only a few) that “Choose a place from reading with friends.” D. Merezhkovsky was the first to speak out about Gogol’s spirituality when he published the book “Gogol and the Devil. Investigation" (although the book was published under different titles). In the last century, K. Mochulsky, V. Zolotusky and Protopresbyter Vasyl Zinkovetsky were fierce in the spirit of Gogol. And, already in our days, this topic was discussed by V. Voropaev.

Gogol was truly a man of mystery. There are too many, in his name, of foolish and foolish figures, tied up, first for everything, with his death and the bedrooms of another volume of “Dead Souls”.

Often in the literature about Gogol it is repeated or the thought is casually accepted that his appeal was primarily literary, that, having “fallen into mysticism,” he has wasted his talent and “engaged in something other than his own right,” that the entire spiritual path of the writer was not one thing in doubt. to the best of our understanding. Even Gogol himself said to his mother: “Try to make me more of a Christian and a human being, not a writer,” as he was not only a great artist, but also a teacher of morality, a Christian ascetic, and a mystic.

cob

Gogol, coming from an ancient Little Russian family, in which religion was intense (his great-grandfather was a priest, his grandfather graduated from the Kiev Theological Academy, his father – the Poltava Seminary) was accompanied by a spasmodic mysticism. Gogol's mother, Maria Ivanivna, was a pious woman and a caring woman. Their happy family life began with a mystical bathhouse. “You have seen me fourteen years ago, for my good man, who is alive this mile away from my fathers. The Queen of Heaven commanded me to do this while she was in a dream.” Until her death, according to the ability of her pawn, she led the holy places in Okhtyrtsa, Lubny, Kiev. After the death of the two invisible leaders, she begged for her “Nikosha” for the image of Mikoly Dikansky.

She lived her entire life in unreasonable, painful anxieties, which were often calmed down by Mikola, who was also either cheerful and joyful, or “fluffy”, in addition to a childish swearing about all her life.

K. Mochulsky writes: “Faith in God is small to come along a new path – not through chaos, but through fear.” Gogol himself recognized his mother: “Once, I vividly remember this incident - I asked you to tell me about the Last Judgment, and you, child, so kindly, so wisely, so destructively told me about these blessings ", how to convince people for living a good life, and so clearly, so horribly they described the eternal torment of sinners, which shocked and aroused all the sensitivity in me, which sparked and over the years generated in me the greatest thoughts." The terrible picture, painted with the pain of a mystically gifted mother, “shocked” Gogol. I have lost myself in a fragile, unimportant child.

Gogol describes the mystical testimony of children’s fates with unprecedented power in “Old World Landowners”: “You, without a doubt, if you almost lost the voice that calls you by name, which common people explain to them that the soul missed the people and the call Yes, and after what a trace of death. I know that I will never be afraid of this secret cry.”

Mriyannya and metannya

Apparently, Mikola Gogol attended 7 highly romantic fates in his life at the Nizhyn Gymnasium of Advanced Sciences. Here I myself became seriously interested in theology.

Gogol's comrades often teased the withdrawn, intelligent and innocent young man, and even respected him. Gogol’s closest lyceum friend, A.S. Danilevsky, wrote: “His comrades loved him, but they called him “the secret dwarf.” They laughed a lot and made fun of him.” Gogol, in his own way, was friends with a small stake, calling the people “esnuvachs” and treating them with disrespect. He showed himself to be a romantic, based on Childe Harold’s inspiration, and his romanticism thirsted for self-assertion. Ale ruhav tsієyu zagoy fear.

The fear of death in young Gogol takes the form of fear of death, of the “dead” life in the “black apartment of the unknown from the world.” “How hard it is to be sunk at once from the created low obscurity into the darkness of the dead,” writes comrade Visotsky in 1827. They still can’t smell the spirit that they praised Gogol alive...

Having believed in the authorities, the “special and secret” call, but the service seemed incomprehensible to him. If I would like to judge, because “here only he will be truly dear to people,” he is preparing to go to America, and before going to St. Petersburg, he boasts to his uncle that: “You still don’t know all my achievements. I know the crafts: good paint, nasty rose-farb walls with alfresco painting, working in the kitchen and a lot of what I already understand from the kitchen art.” Although I wanted to paint a little, I would never be a cook or a craftsman. The complexity to the point of excess, the lack of activity seemed to be due to the peculiarity of one’s psyche.

Gogol “got crazy” from various drives. When he saw the last pennies of his poem “Hanz Küchelgarten”, criticism brutally “travelled” through the book, and Gogol, according to P. Kulish, “rushed with his faithful servant Jakim to bookstores, picking up eczema from booksellers guests by renting a hotel room burning down every single one.” It was then that Gogol’s “spitting” appeared when he was still young.

“Tails of the soul will become”

When the “openings of Europe” begin to turn to St. Petersburg, he gets to know the writers and begins to actively write and sees his super-celebrities “Evenings on a farm near Dikanka.” Later, going to his friend A. Smirnova, Gogol respects that it is not good to judge the works of this period, since the writer has not yet established himself, and in the books of his “there are no tails of the soul of this person, but without “You can’t mark or mark your recognition of them.” What are these “tails”?

In “Vechory” Mikola Gogol embraced two literary traditions – the Ukrainian folk tale with its eternal dualism, the struggle between God and the devil, and the German romantic demonology with witches and devils. The frown in the stories is growing - just as in “The Book of Letters” and “The Nights Before the Feast” the devilishly funny, then in “The Terrible Revenge” or “Vie” laughter is sacrificed in place of fear - it is not for nothing that Gogol’s film from Kuravlyov was staged they respect the first Radyan film Zhakhiv and Navit survived the remake. The book shows a frowning Basavryuk, Chakluny, Mertsi, who emerge from the graves on the birch of the Dnieper, that other evil spirit.

But the book was chewed up and cheerful. As Pushkin wrote: “Everyone rejoiced at this living description of the tribe, singing and dancing... this gaiety, simple-minded and at the same time crafty.” Prote, coming from Gogol’s “Author’s Conversation”, the writer himself was not amused: “I was attacked by those who were not so foolish. In order to respect myself, I guessed for myself everything funnier that I could only guess.”

For those who create justice, there is death and hopelessness in excess. At “The Evening Before Ivan Kupala” Basavryuk speaks; In the “Terrible Vengeance,” everyone who touches the evil force is condemned to death - Danilo, Katerina, and her little son. The “welding” between Ivan Ivanovich and Ivan Nikiforovich will end in the death of the heroes. Opanas Ivanovich and Pulcheria Ivanivna are dying at the “Old World Landlords”, gyne Taras Bulba and resentment of his son; The artist Chortkov is divinely willed and dies in “Portrait”, the artist Piskarev is divinely willed and slit his throat in “Nevsky Prospekt”, and the official Poprishchin is divinely willed in “Divine Will”...

After “Evenings” on Gogol, one can recognize the wondrous inactivity, apathy, “ruining of thoughts”, as if they had tried the tumult of history. Death was a special theme of my life and my creativity.

Shukannya and Vira

After the release of the 1st volume of “Dead Souls”, Gogol traveled to Europe, through which he felt relaxed about Gogol’s conversion to Catholicism, when he became seriously invested in this Christian trend and struck up a friendship with Cardinal Metz Tsofanti, with Abbot Lancia, through his friend Zinaida Volkonsky, converted to Catholicism. Ale tse appeared like tiles - they were deeply Orthodox people.

The famous Little Russian rich man and philanthropist Grigory Galagan said: “Gogol became even more worshipful to me. It seems that all the Russians have gathered to the Russian church for the all-night vigil. I realized that Gogol had won, but then wasted his respect and thought that it was better to get away. A few days later I was at the front door... and there, at the end of the day, having noticed Gogol, at the kut behind the table on knees and with a stolen head.”

At this time, Mikola Vasilyovich begins systematic reading of spiritual literature. In the “Author's Speech” he respects: “I have lost everything in the present for the moment, and I have become devoutly respectful of the knowledge of these eternal laws by which people and humanity are destroyed.” Now I write more on liturgical and church topics. Trying to write prayers.

Until 1845 (according to the testimony of Marfi Sabina), Gogol was going to listen to the monastery. “There is no greater name than the Cherneche, and God forbid that we should be worthy to wear the simple robe of the Cherneche, so it is the desire of my soul, for what has already been said to me is a joy. Ale, without the call of God, you can’t earn anything,” wrote Mikola Vasilovich. Gogol traveled to Optina many times and flocked to the holy fathers.

As it turned out, back in 1842, Gogol left the blessed Bishop of Kharkov, His Eminence Innocent, for a trip to Jerusalem. Ale lost there Mikola Vasilyovich in the cruel year of 1848. He forgot his entire life at the Holy Sepulchre. “I don’t remember why I was praying... The Liturgy rushed me so quickly that the most blessed blessings were not able to catch up with it...”

Gogol that death

After this, after witnessing, he realized that he was ill with the same illness that caused his father to die, and he “knew the fear of death.” Gogol prophesied his death among the “Old World Landowners” and died for the same reason, just as Opanas Ivanovich died. “He has gone through his entire spiritual struggle, which Pulcheria Ivanivna calls him: he has gone through the will of the heard child, drying up, coughing, melting like a candle, and, finally, extinguished like a candle, since nothing has been lost, what could be encouraging "It's half a day." This is an accurate diagnosis of the author’s own illness: Gogol died because they called for him, even “submitting” and also “dropping like a candle.”

Having believed in the inevitability of death, Gogol prepared for it - fasting, taking communion and praying for a long time practically without sleep. One day, suddenly, he fell asleep on the sofa, woke up, woke up, sent for the priest, asked him to take communion again and collect him, because he thought he was dead, sensing voices and now respects himself as dying.

At the end of the 12th century, Gogol burns the final copy of the manuscript of another volume of “Dead Souls.” Whoever has a dungeon, so that one day he will be deprived of a dungeon. There are a lot of versions and rumors about it, and the smell is often super clear. However, it is obvious that Gogol, having experienced this, said that he wanted to give the paper to his friends. The next day, Gogol said to A.P. Tolstoy: “Reveal what a strong evil spirit! I want to burn the papers that have been on those songs for a long time, and by burning the chapters of “Dead Souls”, I want to deprive my friends of the riddle after my death.”

The worst thing about Milk’s version is the fact that Gogol feels like he didn’t throw the whole other part into the fire, having “forgotten” the Shafi’s manuscript from the first and one of the remaining sections of the meal. And after 9 days he died, having said in Svidomosti: “Like licorice dying...”.

Aksakov said about Gogol: “We think that the sense of Gogol’s life will not have any unraveling, it will lie in that galusa, on which all human speculations are aware. Alas, what a sorrowful, what a terrible path! What endless, varied and exquisite suffering bought this greatness! the soul is pathetic and prophetic, the soul that has known inhuman experiences and has come to Christ.”

Gogol ended his main spiritual book “Choose Places from Listing with Friends” with the chapter “Bright Week”, where he reminds the reader about eternal life. What fate, first after my 200th anniversary, my national day, falling on Holy Week, which marks the Holy Week, in which we can remember Gogol - our great, Orthodox fellow countryman!

Viktor SHESTAKOV, “Poltava region”

Gogol Mikoli Vasilyovich's awareness of the importance of talent for power led to the conclusion that you can marvel at human struggles and hardships, and his genius is responsible for realizing everything in words.

“It awakened sensitivity in me”

Mikola Vasilyovich Gogol does not need the magnitude of the manifestation. We get a lot of creativity from school. A. S. Pushkin greatly appreciated Gogol, and they were given the plot of “The Inspector General” and the idea of “Dead Souls.” Bulgakov considered him his teacher. And, despite everything, in Russia you won’t find a greedy person who would have stood before Gogol.

Prote, as if it were a star, Mikoli Vasilyovich, after death, the shamans “disappear”: they manage to dig into his grave to see that the lining is not torn from the trousers, that they did not praise the geniuses of the living: and that his skeleton lies in tatters always turned on one side . And whoever burst into flames, it seems, stole the scribe’s skull from the burial place.

And it’s not just Gogol’s remains that haunt his “rogues”: the stench does not stop them from trying to block his light, “correct” “Taras Bulba”, having confirmed the production of his tableau, so that the authorship becomes unknown, and so on.

More than 150 years have passed since the death of M. V. Gogol, and passions for his specialness, his share and his creations are not felt. Once upon a time they themselves had the strength to fight for his name, telling us fortunes about themselves. Let’s look back at the hour in which Gogol (1809–1852) was alive, before believing in the new marvelous production, having felt the great fear of the world of the world and trying to overcome this fear with a word, having created “I got a letter”, “Viya”, “Travnev” nothing, or Drowning", "Sorochinsky Fair" and other similar works.

Gogol was the first child in the family, and in total there were 6 boys and 6 girls. Few people saw that Kolya’s mother, Maria Ivanivna, was naturally very worried. Gogol’s family had Orthodox priests, Maria Ivanivna was more likely to admire the pagan worldviews that rely on “miracles” and infernal fears.

Gogol’s page to the mother of 1833 has the following lines: “...One time,” I vividly remember this episode now, “I asked you to tell me about the Last Judgment, and you, child, were so kind, so understanding.” , they so eloquently spoke about the blessings that would reward people for living a good life, and so distinctly, so horribly described the torment of sinners, which shocked and aroused sensitivity in me, which sparked and over the years gave me the greatest thoughts.” So, one might say, the mothers themselves in little Kolya began to wander inexplicably in response to the miracle presented and the need to realize them on paper.

“The hour is knocking, and eternity is passing away...”

But in his childhood there were the most serious fears. Gogol remembered one episode in his life: “There were 5 fates. I was sitting alone at Vasylivtsia’s. Father and mother went... The day was descending. I leaned down to the corner of the sofa and, in the midst of complete silence, listened to the knocking of the long pendulum of the ancient wall calendar.

There was a noise in the ears, things were moving and going somewhere. Believe it or not, it already seemed like the knock of the pendulum would be the hour that eternity was ending. The rapt of a weak yowling of the intestines destroyed the calm, pulling at me. I walked, like there, yelping, carefully sneaking up to me. I will never forget how she came out, stretching, and her soft paws weakly tapping her claws on the floorboard, and her green eyes shone with an unkind light. I became scared. I sat on the sofa and leaned against the wall.

“Kitty, kitty,” I muttered, eager to cheer myself up, jumping up and scooping up a cat that easily fell into my hands, running around the garden, throwing it into the bets a few times, if it was tempting to get stuck and go out on shore, vydshtovhuvav її shostoyu. I was scared, I was dizzy, and then, feeling satisfied, maybe I’ll take revenge for those who scolded me. But when she sank, and the remaining stakes in the water dissolved, a new calm and silence settled in, the raft became even worse. I feel guilty. It seemed to me that I had drowned a man. I cried terribly and calmed down only when my father, to whom I had learned my secret, died.”

Obviously, the “germ of a writer” in Gogol not only reflexed an unknowingly cruel spirit, but also made Kolya incredibly worry and stratify himself. For everything, this very fall from childhood brought back to Gogol the episode with the mother who turned into a black gut, like a lady cutting her paw (“Travneva nich, or Drowning”).

“Know what is appropriate to attack…”

Be some genius, you would like to understand your companions. And Gogol is not to blame for anyone.

In his article “A Bunch of Stories about Pushkin” (1834), Mikola Vasilyovich expressed respect for those who saw the “trial” of the peepers over his little ones for the new sick: “... In my childhood, almost such a court was closed, but after all wow having lost wisdom: to know what is appropriate and what is not appropriate at the same time... "The knowledge itself is the acquisition of the relishes of readers, to which Gogol devoted almost an hour, along with his literary genius, and allowed Mikola Vasilyovich to achieve deafening writing no success at all.

Having arrived in St. Petersburg, Gogol recognized the atmosphere of deep interest in Ukrainian culture. Vin informs his mother that “...Petersburg occupies everyone with everything Little Russian,” and asks her to guess more details of “Little Russian life” for “Evenings on a farm near Dikanka.” The stories, being seen, take away the deserved praise from both readers and critics, and from Pushkin himself.

"Zapovit"

Gogol wrote “Mirgorod”, “Peterburz stories”, songs, therefore “Dead Souls” - critics still respect their most precise insights into the Russian character. Another volume of “Dead Souls” could not be proud of the first! And the scandals that spread around the world damaged Gogol’s delicate internal organization. The fears came with renewed vigor, and the importance of writing, the pressure of a huge thought, and the pressure of a huge thought did not calm the peace of mind. One thing about which Gogol has no doubt is the power of his word.

1847 Gogol sees the book “Choose a Place from Listing with Friends.” The chapter “Commandment” appears over there. This is the real commandment of Mikoli Vasilyovich, de, in addition to the order about the worship and all instructions to friends and shamans, Gogol writes: “I am a writer, and the obligation of a writer is not only a source of employment for the mind and relish; It’s hard to become attached to him, so as not to expand the mercies of the soul and not lose anything for the sake of people.”

And... “Choose a place...” everyone began to bark for just a moment. “How did it happen that every single person in Russia was angry with me, which I still can’t understand on my own,” Gogol marveled, confirming to Belinsky that he had destroyed the article. It’s amazing that, being a mystic, Gogol did not immediately understand: having published the “Testament” (which is usually heard after death), in truth... after death.

Death of a Writer

The decision to “give up” did not come with a bang. It took a lot of time to fade away. And Gogol went ahead, which was awkward, since cultured Russia did not vote him as its Messiah, and Belinsky practically voted him divine (and all the critics immediately supported him, since everything was explained). And then the writer painted everything at the highest level (no wonder Gogol loved the theater and was himself a miraculous actor). The genius just... starved himself to death. And already on the verge of death, putting a sign to the hail - burning another volume of “Dead Souls”.

Preserving external humility, Gogol took revenge on everyone. And those who immediately did not stand up for someone, and those who doubted his genius, butt on the ground. Russia was crying.

“Gogol is not in the world, Gogol is dead... Wonderful words to cope with extreme enmity,” wrote Sergei Aksakov in “Leaves to Gogol’s Friends,” and through the proposition: “Ale Gogol burned “Dead Souls”... a terrible word!” Congratulate the readers of Russia on the result of the decimal exercise!

And yet, at first glance, this marvelous, mentally ill person has the marks of a genius. Because Gogol the genius is alien to Mitt’s human suffering, he can imagine the scale of a century, setting up the death of Gogol the man in such a way that through the second century people would argue and think about it, and the writer’s actions would be read and discussed. However, the most important thing: we are not given the opportunity to know what genius burned before his death: his defeat and triumph are revealed, the skin of the free lamination over him independently. Aje Gogol knew for sure what the troops needed.

Shares of the greats

Chantly, there is no more mysterious and mystical writer than Mikola Vasilyovich Gogol. After re-reading his biography, many people wonder about nutrition. Why did Gogol never make friends? Why didn’t you ever wash the Vlasny Budinka? Did you burn another volume of “Dead Souls”? And, of course, the greatest mystery is the mystery of his illness and death.

Gogol's life is a real adventure, the most terrible part of which flowed in the mystical plane, which is our gaze. A people who were born out of a sense of cosmic hunger, who were very real about the handing over of demonic forces to the life of a person, who fought the devil until the end of their lives - this people “burned” with a fiery thoroughness and a tireless ardor for God.

The great Ukrainian and Russian writer, Gogol, like no other, felt like magic, conveying in his creativity dark, evil magical forces. Ale Gogol's mysticism is powerful like his creations, and his life, starting from the people.

The story of his father’s friendship, Vasil Gogol’s father with his mother Maria Kosyarovskaya, was also shrouded in mysticism. While still a boy, Vasil Gogol traveled with his mother to say goodbye to the Kharkov province, where there was a miraculous image of the Mother of God. Having lost the night’s stay, he saw the temple and the heavenly queen, who told him his fate: “You will be possessed by a lot of ailments (and so it was, you will suffer from a lot of ailments), but if everything passes, you will recover, make friends and your squad.” Having seen these words, she raised her hand up in the air, and shook the little child who was sitting on the underside, the rice of which was etched in her memory. Nezabarom Vasil, while visiting the small town, was holding a seven-month-old girl in the nanny’s arms, as she told the girl’s rice in her sleep. 13 years later, I had a dream again, in which a gate was opened in the same temple, and a girl of extraordinary beauty came out and, pointing her hand to her left side, said: “Your axis is named!” Then he bathed the girl in white cloth with the same rice. In a short hour, Vasil Gogol wooed the thirteen-numbered Maria Kosyarovskaya.

About an hour after the party, the family’s son Mykola, named in honor of St. Mykola of Myra, appeared in front of the miraculous icon of whom Maria Ivanivna Gogol held a monastery. Mikola lived in a God-fearing religious family, and regularly took his mother to church. On the other hand, in the past, Ukrainian culture, rich in legends, believes about demonic powers. Before that, he was a very sick boy, and right up to the gymnasium, he often suffered from unconscious nervous attacks.

After graduating from high school, Mikola Gogol, having moved to St. Petersburg, begins his work from local accounts, which brought him great popularity. All stories, as we know them, are taken from folk art. His characters - Viy, the Devil, the Witch - are so organic in his creations, even if the stench was real, Gogol’s mystique literally permeates them.

After all, Gogol read “Dead Souls” as the book of his life. Having marveled at this world, as if at what lay in the posture of power, I was able to open the secret chambers, my commandments. – “When I write, my eyes blur with unnatural clarity. And if I read something written that is not yet finished, clarity will go from my eyes. I have seen this many times. I sing, when I serve my service and finish, I will die. And if I bring into the world immature or share with the little ones that I have lost, I will die before, and I will never forget what the world cries for,” he said to his friends.

It is important that on those same nights he burned down another volume of “Dead Souls.” Protely, the manuscript of another one was known among the books. And those who were burned in the fireplace were unconscious.

N.V. Gogol died on the 21st of 1852 in Moscow, he was buried at the St. Daniel Monastery. In 1931, after the closure of the monastery and the center, the remains of Mikoli Gogol were transferred to the center of the Novodivych monastery. It was then discovered that the deceased’s skull had been stolen. As there are many evidences, the very skeleton of the dead body of inversions also allows us to assume that Mikoli Vasilyovich’s fear of the poisoned bait was not marred.
