Biography of Pushkin quotes

Apollo Aleksandrovich Grigoryev A ours is our everything: Pushkin is a representative of all our spiritual, special, such that will remain our spiritual, special after all clashes with strangers, with other worlds.

Pushkin - so far the only complete essay of our people's personality, the nugget, who took into himself, with all kinds of clashes with other characteristics and organisms, is everything that should be accepted, having removed everything that should be removed, complete and whole, but not yet with paints, but only the contours of the sketched image of our people's essence - the image that we will still shade with paints for a long time.

The sphere of Pushkin’s spiritual sympathy does not exclude anything former before him and nothing that was and will be correct and organically ours after him. Grigoryev "A look at Russian literature from the death of Pushkin." And the humanity was, of course, the innate feature of Pushkin's chosen nature. From the article by I. Annensky "Pushkin and Tsarskoye Selo." Pushkin was the finalist of Old Rus'.

Pushkin captured this Rus', joyful with her long inaudible maturation and her infinitely proud of her finally from under the fairy-tale rags, a diamond shy in his forehead. Annensky "Aesthetics of Dead Souls and Her Heritage." He concentrated the freshness of the young race, the naive spontaneity and talkality of a brilliant healthy child, for whom everything is new, who responds to everything, in which every contact with the visible world wakes up a whole system of thoughts, feelings and sounds.

Balmont "About Russian poets. Fragments from lectures." This name, this sound fills many days of our lives. The gloomy names of the emperors, commanders, inventors of the instruments of murder, tormentors and martyrs of life. And next to them is a slight name: Pushkin. Pushkin so easily and cheerfully knew how to carry his creative burden, despite the fact that the role of the poet is not easy and not funny; it is tragic; Pushkin led his role in a wide, confident and free movement, like a great master; And, however, our heart often squeezes at the thought of Pushkin: the festive and triumphal procession of the poet, who could not interfere with the external, because his business is inner culture - this procession was too often violated by the gloomy intervention of people, for whom the oven is more expensive than God.

From the speech of A. Blok "On the appointment of the poet." He did not have time to go to the end: he left sketches, notes, brief instructions; It included the most difficult issues, for the development of which multi -volume novels were required, in the frame of a brief poem or even in a dry plan of the work, which did not have leisure to write. And so far, our literature has not yet outlived Pushkin; Until now, in all directions where it breaks, there are milestones placed by Pushkin as a sign of what he knew and saw this path.

From the article by V. Bryusov "The versatility of Pushkin." In it, the Russian nature, the Russian soul, the Russian language, the Russian character were reflected in the same purity, in such purified beauty, which reflects the landscape on the convex surface of optical glass. From the article by N. Gogol "A few words about Pushkin."
