KOTLYAREVSKY IVAN PETROVICH

Kotlyarevsky, Ivan Petrovich - a famous Little Russian writer (1769 - 1838). He graduated from the course at the Poltava Theological Seminary. He was a teacher in the homes of landowners; served in the military and took part in battles with the Turks. Since 1808, Kotlyarevsky lived in Poltava, in the position of an overseer at the institute for "educating the children of poor nobles." Kotlyarevsky is considered the father of the new Little Russian literature. His main work: "Virgil's Aeneid, transformed into the Little Russian language" is classic in its simplicity and elegance of style and Ukrainian irony. The first three songs of the Aeneid were published in 1798. Complete and accurate edition of Kotlyarevsky's "Aeneid", without changes in language, was made by Volokhinov in Kharkov, in 1842. The most widespread edition of Kulish (1862) presents major revisions of the text. When writing his Aeneid, Kotlyarevsky had in mind the Russian version of Osipov, published in 1791, and the latter, in turn, imitated the German writer Blumayer. Even earlier, Virgil's Aeneid underwent a satirical alteration in Italy (Eneide travestita, Lally, 1633) and in France (Virgile travesti en vers burlesques, Scarrona). Kotlyarevsky imitated Osipov in his choice of verse and in his depiction of drunkenness. Kotlyarevsky's independence is revealed in the language and in many original episodes, written with great talent. In 1819, Kotlyarevsky wrote two operettas: "Natalka-Poltavka" and "Moskal Charivnik", which until now occupy the first place in the Little Russian repertoire. "Natalka-Poltavka" was first published in 1837, "Moskal Charivnik" - in 1841. For the latter see the article by Professor Dashkevich in Kievskaya Starina (1893, XII). Kotlyarevsky here imitated the French operetta "Le soldat magicien" (1760). - Wed N.I. Petrov "Essays on the History of Ukrainian Literature" (22 - 36); N.P.

Biography

In 1816-1821 - director of the Poltava Theater. In 1818, together with V. Lukashevich, V. Tarnavsky and others, he was a member of the Poltava Masonic Lodge "Love for Truth". Kotlyarevsky assisted in the redemption of M.S.Schepkin from serfdom. B - is the trustee of charitable institutions.

Literary activity

He began his literary career around 1794. Kotlyarevsky is the author of The Aeneid (3 parts; - full posthumous edition), which was reprinted several times under the title of Virgil's Aeneid. Revised into Little Russian language by I. Kotlyarevsky. Taking as a basis the plot of the eponymous poem by Virgil, as well as the parody poem of the same name by Nikolai Osipov in Russian (where Aeneas is depicted as a Russian "daring fellow"), Kotlyarevsky created his original work of art in the tradition of burlesque. In the poem, the author recreated different aspects of the life of Ukrainian society in the second half of the 18th century. National coloring and sympathy for the fate of the common people determined the great success of the Aeneid among its contemporaries.

Under the influence of the Aeneid, which had great success among the Ukrainian and Russian public, the “Urainian language” was perceived for a long time (including by many Ukrainian writers) as closely associated with burlesque themes and “low calm”. Kotlyarevsky himself and his contemporaries viewed "Ukrainian" literature as a regional addition to Russian, not claiming an equal status or multifunctionality with it, and used the "Ukrainian language" as such primarily for a humorous purpose. Therefore, the writers of Ukrainian romanticism, who since the 1840s had been establishing the Ukrainian language in a wider stylistic and thematic range, tried to dissociate themselves from the traditions of Kotlyarevsky - "Kotlyarevschina". Taras Shevchenko, who in 1838 wrote enthusiastic poems for the death of the poet "To the eternal memory of Kotlyarevsky", in which he glorified him as the creator of the immortal "Aeneid", in 1847 certified the "Aeneid" as "smіkhovina on the Moscow stalt".

In 1861, a well-known writer and public figure, Shevchenko's friend Panteleimon Kulish called Kotlyarevsky an exponent of "anti-popular samples of taste" who made fun of the "Ukrainian nationality" in his "Aeneid", parading "everything that the caricatured, funny and absurd in the worst examples of a commoner ", and called the language of the poem" an example of Ukrainian tavern conversation. " (Kulish P. A. Review of Ukrainian literature // Osnova. 1861. No. 1. P. 244, 246. 247.)

Based on the poem, the operas Aeneas in the Wanderings (composer Ya. E. Lopatinsky) and Aeneid (composer H. Lysenko, libretto by G. Sadovsky) were created.

The modern Ukrainian language might not have existed if it had not been for Ivan Kotlyarevsky, who wrote the amazing humorous poem "Aeneid". Thanks to this work, the living language of the Ukrainian people was finally transferred to the pages of books. However, not only this attracted the readers of "Aeneid", but also with a fun, exciting plot and bright, well-written characters.

Ivan Kotlyarevsky: a short biography

Ivan Petrovich Kotlyarevsky was born in Poltava, in the family of a clerical official, in September 1769.

When the young man turned eleven, he was sent to study at a theological seminary. After his studies, Ivan Kotlyarevsky, in order to earn his living, gave private lessons to the offspring of the local petty nobility. A little later, he got a job in the Poltava chancellery and worked there for about four years.

During the Russian-Turkish war, Kotlyarevsky actively participated in the siege of Izmail and was even awarded an honorary order. After the end of the war, he retired and returned to Poltava.

When Ivan Petrovich passed over thirty, he got a job as a superintendent in one of the Poltava educational institutions for children from impoverished noble families who were unable to pay for education in high schools worthy of their position.

During the French-Russian war of 1812, Kotlyarevsky actively participated in the defense of Poltava, having obtained permission to organize a Cossack regiment by local youth.

After the war he became interested in theater. In 1816 he became director of the free theater of Poltava. Due to the lack of a decent repertoire, he took up writing himself. So from under his pen came out two plays: "Natalka-Poltavka" and "Moskal-Charivnik".

At the age of 69, Kotlyarevsky died. Buried in Poltava.

The history of writing "Aeneid"

Even during his military service, Ivan Petrovich had the idea to write a poem about the Cossacks. Knowing quite well classical literature, and also possessing the talent to rhyme perfectly, he decided to create on the basis of the plot of the Aeneid by the ancient Roman poet Virgil own composition Kotlyarevsky.

Virgil's Aeneid had already been translated into Russian in a rather loose style by the Russian writer Nikolai Osipov a few years earlier, which inspired Kotlyarevsky. However, Ivan Petrovich turned the main character Aeneas into a Cossack, and wrote the poem itself in ordinary colloquial speech, which no one had done in Ukrainian literature before him.

In 1798, the first three parts of the poem were published in St. Petersburg.

"Aeneid" by Kotlyarevsky instantly gained popularity: not only its plot, but also the piquant humor with which the poet generously supplied his work, attracted readers. In addition, written in Ukrainian, it was exotic for the Russian-speaking population of the country.

"Aeneid": a summary of the first, second and third parts

In the first part, the brave Cossack Aeneas, after the destruction of his native Troy, on the advice of his mother, the goddess Venus (his late father once helped her win a dispute with other goddesses), goes with the Trojans to new lands to establish his kingdom there.

However, Juno, who hates the family of Aeneas (she was among the losers trying to mend all sorts of dirty tricks to the hero. But Venus, having complained, learns that Aeneas has a great destiny - he will become the founder of a great kingdom.

Meanwhile, Aeneas and his companions arrive in Carthage, where Queen Dido falls in love with the brave Cossack. In her arms, the hero forgets about everything: both the sad past and the great future. Then Zeus sends Mercury to him, which forces Aeneas to leave his beloved. Dido, not enduring such a betrayal, commits suicide.

In the second part, Juno tricks the Trojan women into burning ships while the men feast in Sicily. However, the gods send rain at the request of Aeneas, and some of the ships remain intact. Soon, in a dream, his late father Anchises comes to Aeneas and asked to visit him in hell.

In the third part, Aeneas, after a long search and with the help of the Sibyl, finds the way to hell. After seeing the horrors of the underworld and meeting there the souls of dead countrymen, as well as Dido and his father, the hero with expensive gifts and auspicious prophecies sets off again on the road.

Summary of the fourth, fifth and sixth parts of the "Aeneid" (written much later)

In the fourth part, Aeneas sails to the island of King Latina. Here he makes friends with him, and he plans to pass off his beautiful daughter Lavinia as a pleasant new neighbor. However, the girl's ex-fiancé - King Thurn -, with the assistance of the omnipresent Juno, begins a war against Latina. Meanwhile, the insidious goddess cunningly turns his wife Latina against the Trojans, and they all prepare for war.

In the fifth part, Venus persuades him to make a magnificent weapon for Aeneas. To win the war, the Trojans ask for help from the neighboring people. Juno warns Thurn about the time of the start of Aeneas' attack. And two Trojan warriors - Niz and Euryal - secretly sneak into the enemy camp and kill many opponents, while dying themselves. Soon, the Trojans manage to put Thurn to flight.

In the last part of the poem, Zeus learns about the tricks of all the gods and forbids them to interfere in the fate of Aeneas. However, Juno, having come to her husband Zeus, gave him a drink and put him to sleep. And then, with the help of cunning, she saved Thurn from death. Aeneas negotiates with Thurn and Latin about a fair fight, which should determine the outcome of the war. Juno is trying with all her might to destroy Aeneas, but Zeus catches her and forbids her to interfere, adding that after her death, Aeneas will be with them on Olympus. Aeneas honestly defeats Thurn and, after some hesitation, kills him.

Aeneid characters

The main character of the poem is the son of Venus and the king of Troy Ankhiz - Aeneas. He is a brave Cossack, a brave, resolute and skillful warrior, but human weaknesses are not alien to him. So, Aeneas is not averse to drinking and taking a walk with friends.

He is also greedy for female beauty. Having started an affair with Queen Dido, Aeneas forgets about everything. But later he easily abandons her by the order of the gods. Despite all his shortcomings, when necessary, Aeneas is able to show both diplomacy and resourcefulness. It is around this hero that the entire Aeneid poem is built.

The rest of the characters in the poem are not so bright. So, the classic woman is embodied in the image of Dido.

She is smart, cheerful and hardworking, but, being a widow, she dreams of a strong male shoulder. Having seized the heart of Aeneas, the queen began to behave like a spouse in comedies: she was jealous and quarreled with him.

The Kings of Latin and Thurn have opposite personalities. The first is greedy and cowardly, trying to avoid war with all his might. The second, on the contrary, is bold, pompous and arrogant. Because of this bombast, Juno manages to use him with ease.

Of particular interest is the character of Latina's wife, Queen Amata. A woman matched by Turnu is just as proud and pompous. But at the same time, she is incredibly smart and cunning. However, like Dido, having fallen in love, he begins to do stupid things.

Notable are the characters of two Trojan Cossacks - Niza and Euryale. Having sacrificed their lives, they destroyed many enemies.

It is quite possible that Kotlyarevsky used his memories of the Russian-Turkish war when creating these images.

"Aeneid" is inconceivable without the main characters, the gods. The first of their host is the supreme goddess of Olympus Juno - the main opponent of Aeneas.

She hates the protagonist with all her heart, dreaming of limiting him. To achieve her goal, Juno is ready for anything and does not even stop at the direct prohibition of her husband. However, despite all her tricks, the prophecy about Aeneas comes true.

Another heroine-goddess of the Aeneid is Venus. Being rather dissolute, the goddess behaves like a real caring mother. She goes to great lengths to help her Aeneas: she opposes Juno, seduces Vulcan and even sometimes argues with Zeus.

Zeus in The Aeneid is depicted as a traditional boss - he loves to drink and relax. Despite all his warnings, the goddesses rarely listen to him, trying to achieve their own by roundabout ways, with the help of bribes and connections.

Translation of "Aeneid" into Russian

Today, there is a lot of controversy over the language in which Kotlyarevsky's "Aeneid" was written. So, some people mistakenly believe that Ivan Petrovich first wrote his poem in Russian, and later made a translation. The Aeneid, however, was actually written in Ukrainian (Little Russian, as they said at the time), however, since it did not yet have a separate alphabet, the author used the letters of Russian.

But the full translation of Kotlyarevsky's Aeneid into Russian was carried out by I. Brazhnin.

By the way, do not confuse Osipov's work with the one written by Kotlyarevsky. "Aeneid" for each of the authors is a separate, independent work. However, when writing, both Osipov and Kotlyarevsky used the poem of Virgil as the primary source.

Years have passed, many words, phenomena, things and events mentioned in the "Aeneid" have lost their relevance, or even completely sunk into oblivion, so modern readers do not understand everything from what Kotlyarevsky described in his poem. "Aeneid" now seems to them just a cheerful poem with old curses. But at the same time, even today she remains beloved by all Ukrainians, and not only by them.

Kotlyarevsky Ivan Petrovich was born on September 9, 1769 in Poltava, died in the same city on November 10, 1838. Ukrainian poet, playwright, public figure, pioneer of a new era of Ukrainian literature.

The main merit and achievement of Ivan Kotlyarevsky.

Thesis of Russian propaganda 2014-2015 about the fact that there is no Ukrainian nation (there is a "pollinated dialect" of the Russian language, and "Ukrainians" are "Little Russians") was refuted at the end of the 18th century, when in 1798 the first three parts of Kotlyarevsky's "Aeneid" with an extensive , for more than 1000 words, a Ukrainian-Russian glossary.

The presence of a literary language is an attribute of a nation. So, more than 200 years ago, thanks to the literary feat of Ivan Kotlyarevsky, all the philologists of the world learned and recognized the Ukrainian language, into which Virgil's Aeneid can be translated, as the ancient Greek plot was previously presented in French (P. Scarron), German (A. Blumauer) and a number of other languages \u200b\u200bof the world.

The theme of the genre is not accidental from the point of view of philology. The literature of any country in its birth goes through 3 stages - at first it laughs, then cries and only then loudly declares itself. The birth process in Ukrainian literature was started by Kotlyarevsky, picked up by Kvitka-Osnovyanenko, the culmination was the work of Taras Shevchenko.

- "Aeneid" by Kotlyarevsky once became a source of healing laughter, which brought the Ukrainian nation back to life in the most difficult period for it. The writer proved that the Ukrainian language, considered a folk dialect, is ideal for writing serious literary works;

The Aeneid, written by Kotlyarevsky, became a turning point not only in literature, but also in the history of the people as such; it revived the Ukrainian language after many years of attempts to stifle the voice of the people;

In a very difficult historical period for Ukrainians, the writer gave the nation the strength for revival, drawing inspiration from the people themselves, their way of life and the brilliant facets of individuality;

For a nation, laughter means recovery and access to new level self-awareness. At the turn of the 17-18 centuries "Aeneid" returned to the Ukrainians the strength to fight for existence when almost no one believed in the revival of the nation after the destruction of the Hetmanate and the Zaporizhzhya Sich;

The main hero of Kotlyarevsky's poem is the Ukrainian people. In the text, he appears before the readers as a truly heroic nation. Strength to the Cossacks is given by their love for the Motherland, which turns an ordinary young guy into a heroic knight;

The work of Kotlyarevsky revived the Ukrainian language, which was diligently destroyed during the 2nd half of the 17th and 1st half of the 18th century.

Literary critics claim that Kotlyarevsky's "Aeneid" is written in a super-airtight style; only a person who knows Ukrainian history well can unpack the "container". The writer Yevgeny Sverstiuk once said that in the Aeneid, besides the text itself, there is also subtext and supertext.

In his most famous work, Kotlyarevsky dressed Virgil's heroes in Ukrainian clothes. As a result, it turned out that the Ukrainian people understood the real meaning of the poem, and the imperial authorities did not see the danger to themselves in the "Aeneid". The work is often called "the history of Ukraine in time, sailing by sea waves".

Kotlyarevsky, in the image of his Aeneas, portrayed the collective image of the Ukrainian Cossack, in Tourna the attentive reader can easily guess the Moscow tsar, and in Troy - the Ukrainian state, which in its development is constantly faced with opposition. The Aeneid is often called the encyclopedia of Ukrainian life. The intellectual Kotlyarevsky gained knowledge by going to the people. The writer dressed in inconspicuous peasant clothes and plunged into the world of the common people.

Collective images are also present in his dramatic works. In the play "Natalka-Poltavka" the writer described the ideal Ukrainian woman who knows how to love with all her heart. In the image of Voznoy, the playwright showed that even in everyday life there is a place for feat, and it is easy and simple to give happiness to a loved one. In 1889, the legendary Ukrainian composer Nikolai Lysenko wrote an opera based on the play "Natalka-Poltavka", the work was translated into many languages, and to this day theatrical performances are staged on it.

It is not difficult to find a collective image, this time negative, in the work "Moskal the Charivnik", written by Kotlyarevsky in 1819. If in "Aeneid" satire is veiled, then in the play the shortcomings of the supporters of royal oppression are demonstrated much more clearly. Critics call the play a bold, daring satire on the Moscow authorities.

It is noteworthy that the Aeneid was published in print in stages. First, without informing the writer, in 1798 the publisher Mikhail Parpura in St. Petersburg published the first 3 sections of the poem. The publisher made good profits, the writer fame. The lack of reaction to the risky satirical work showed that the imperial leadership of the essence of "Aeneid" did not understand what inspired the writer to continue.

The full text was published only after the death of the author, in 1842. Kotlyarevsky worked on the poem almost all his life, starting while studying at the theological seminary. The final version of the text consists of 730 stanzas, 10 lines each.

Literary critics state that the consciousness and work of Kotlyarevsky contain signs of baroque and romanticism. However, the writer understood the baroque in his own way, he showed that ordinary inhabitants of the Ukrainian village can also be great. The writer became the author of the first serious work in the popular language, before that he was considered an adverb that is suitable only for writing interludes.
