"On the eve of the 125th anniversary of Marina Tsvetaeva's birth, the demand for her works has almost doubled, as evidenced by the results of an analytical measurement carried out on the eve of the author's birthday," Mikhailova noted.
The most popular, according to the head of the book network, remain collections of selected poems by Tsvetaeva, the poet's diaries - "I am not a love heroine" and the letters of Marina Tsvetaeva and Boris Pasternak "Through the hard times of the era ...: letters of 1922-1936" are popular.

Another secret of popularity lies in versatility. "There is no genre where it is not presented in the most powerful way - poetry, prose, drama, philosophical articles, epistolary creativity," Lev Mnukhin noted.

There is everything - up to the suicide notes, and with drafts. This is a wonderful gift for her anniversary both for specialists and for readers."
It is impossible to impose
Mnukhin said that he has been studying the work of the poetess for more than 50 years and is still learning new things. “I was fascinated by Marina Ivanovna’s prose. I started reading“ Captive Spirit ”,“ Old Pimen's House ”and could no longer stop, - the researcher shared. - You know, I still read and find something new. , deep, in general, bottomless poetry. Tsvetaeva gushes over the edge, with such a fusion of meaning and word. "
Mnukhin warned that one must enter carefully into the work of the poetess, return to it if during the meeting something did not like it or did not open immediately.
"She must not be imposed in any way. One must enter into her work gradually," he noted. , read children's poems and suddenly come to "Poems to Blok" or "Poems about Moscow", and you already start to like it and you want to go further, further. "
Events for the anniversary

Leading. Good evening, dear guests! Today you are visitors to the literary living room, where you will get acquainted with the life of Marina Tsvetaeva, her work.
Marina Tsvetaeva! Effective and even pretentious. It even looks like a pseudonym. But behind the flower name is the wounded soul of a publican wandering in the infinity of passions.
She said about herself and her life "We are chains of a mysterious link"
"Take ... poetry - this is my life ..."
In these words, all Marina Tsvetaeva, her passion for poetry, originality and uniqueness.
Poetess.
With a red brush
The rowan is lit up -
Leaves were falling.
I was born,
Hundreds argued
Bells
The day was Saturday
John the Evangelist
Me to this day
I want to gnaw
Hot rowan
Bitter brush
Who is made of stone
Who is made of clay -
And I am silver and sparkle!
I care about treason, my name is Marina,
I am the mortal foam of the sea.
Who is made of clay, who is made of flesh -
Thus the coffin and tombstones ...
Baptized in the baptismal font - and in flight
Its - constantly broken!
Through every heart, through every network
My will will break through.
Me - do you see those dissolute curls? -
You cannot make earthly salt.
Crushing on your granite knees
I am resurrected with every wave!
Long live the foam - fun foam
High sea foam!
Lead 1. 10/08/1892 in Moscow in the family of the famous philologist and art critic Ivan Vladimirovich Tsvetaev and the talented pianist Maria Alexandrovna Main, daughter Marina was born.
Tsvetaeva began writing early. Already in her early poems, Tsvetaeva's poetic individuality is manifested, the most important themes of her work are formed: Russia, love, poetry.
Poetess.
If the soul was born winged -
What a mansion to her and what a house to her!
What is Genghis Khan to her - and what is the Horde!
I have two enemies in the world,
Two twins - inseparably - fused:
The hunger of the hungry - and the satiety of the well-fed!
- this is how Marina Tsvetaeva defined her poetic purpose.
Poetess.
Cold hands crumpled up my apron,
All has turned pale, the darling is trembling.
Grandma will be sad:
granddaughter
Suddenly - one!
The teacher looks as if he doesn’t believe
To these tears, in the lowered gaze
Ah, the unit is a big loss
First woe!
Tear after tear fell, sparkling,
A page floats away in white circles ...
Does the teacher know which
Is pain a unit?
Lead 2... The first book "Evening Album" was published by Tsvetaeva in 1910, when she just turned 18 years old. The book, which had a circulation of only 500 copies, did not go unnoticed: the poet Valery Bryusov praised it, N. Gumilyov wrote about it with interest, and Maximilian Voloshin was the first to read it with a kind smile and friendly participation. Marina Tsvetaeva met and made friends with 37-year-old Maximilian Voloshin. Their friendship lasted over 20 years.
Who gave you such clarity of colors?
Who gave you such precision of words,
Courage to say everything from petting
Before the spring new moon dreams?
Lead 3. A girl from Trekhprudny Lane, overflowing with impressions of life, writes poetry to tell about herself, to understand herself. In the poems, the carefree summer in Tarusa, the blue Eye and the clouds slowly floating towards God; unaccountable adolescent sadness, young sadness, creating pauses in the turbulent course of life, during which the soul matures; the first love; success in poetry salons.
Lead 1. In May 1911, at the invitation of Voloshin, Marina arrives in Crimea. In Koktebel, at the dachas owned by Voloshin's mother, a large artistic company gathered. Wandering around the outskirts of Koktebel in search of beautiful stones for which the Crimean coast is famous, Marina meets a tall young man. His huge blue eyes captivate her.
He helps her collect stones. She thinks that if a stranger finds a carnelian, she will marry him. And so it happened. The young man found almost immediately, by touch, a Genoese carnelian bead - a large pink stone - and presented it to Marina. In January 1912 in Moscow, in a church, they got married. So Marina Tsvetaeva became the wife of Sergei Efron. Childhood is over. The time for apprenticeship is over. From a girl writing poetry, Marina Tsvetaeva became a poet. Those who know their own worth. Going my own way
Poetess.
To my poems written so early
That I didn’t know that I was a poet,
Bursting like spray from a fountain
Like sparks from rockets.
Burst in like little devils
In the sanctuary, where sleep and incense,
To my poems about youth and death,
Unread poetry! -
Scattered in the dust of the shops
(Where no one took them and does not take them!)
To my poems, like precious wines,
It will be its turn
May 1913
Lead 2. The marriage and the birth of a daughter served as a creative impulse in the development of Marina Tsvetaeva both as a person and as a poet. New themes, new rhythms appear in poetry. Little Alya, the daughter of Ariadne, named after the heroine of the Greek legend about the Minotaur, becomes the center of attention and love.
Poetess.
You will be innocent, thin
Adorable - and a stranger to everyone,
Captivating Amazon
Swift mistress
And my braids, perhaps,
You will wear like a helmet
You will be the queen of the ball -
And all the young poems
And he will pierce many, queen,
Your mocking blade,
And all that is to me is only a dream
You will have at your feet.
Everything will be obedient to you
And everyone is with you - be quiet
You will be like me -
indisputably -
And it's better to write poetry ...
But will you - who knows -
It's deadly to squeeze whiskey,
How it squeezes them right now
Your young mother.
Lead 1. Poems dedicated to Ale, burn with love and tenderness.
Lead 3. From her youthful years Marina Ivanovna has been concerned with questions about life and death, about the destiny of man, his self-realization. All manifestations of the soul must find a way out. In the poem “How many of them have fallen into this abyss,” transcribed to music by the composer Myagkov, Tsvetaeva defends the right to a full, full life, eternal movement.
The song "How many of them ..." sounds.
Lead 2. 1917 .. The February, then the October Revolution redrawn the family life of Russians. Sergei Efron, in the ranks of the white army, leaves for the Don to fight against the revolutionary government. Marina Tsvetaeva with two children (daughter Irina was born in 1917) remained in Moscow.
In the collection "Swan Camp" glorifies the white movement not for political reasons, but because her lover was there.
Poetess.
Nailed to the pillory
Old Slavic conscience,
With a snake in my heart and a brand on my forehead
I claim that I am innocent.
I affirm that there is peace in me
Communion before the sacrament,
That it’s not my fault that I’m with my hand
I stand in the squares - for happiness.
Review all my goodness,
Tell me - or have I gone blind?
Where is my gold? Where is the silver?
I have only a handful of ashes in my hand!
And that's all that vengeance and supplication
I asked the happy ones.
And that's all I'll take with me
To the land of silent kissing
Lead 3. At this time, the daughter is always next to Marina. Always a friend, always a helper, always a listener, a reader of mother's poems and an interlocutor. Marina, as if forgetting that her daughter is still very young, talks to her as an equal, loads her with her worries, troubles, acquaintances. She is sincerely grateful to Ale for the fact that she is, for the fact that she is always there.
Poetess:
I don't know where you are and where I am.
The same songs and the same worries.
Such friends with you!
Such orphans are with you!
And it's so good for the two of us -
Homeless, sleepless and sir ...
Two birds: we got up a little - we will eat,
Two wanderers: we feed on the world.
Lead 1. You can compare these lines with the recollection of those years by Tsvetaeva's friend Konstantin Balmont: “These two poetic souls, mother and daughter, more like two sisters, were the most touching vision of complete detachment from reality and a free life among dreams - under such conditions, with which others only groan, get sick and die. The spiritual strength of love for love and beauty, as it were, freed these two human birds from pain and melancholy. Hunger, cold, complete abandonment - and eternal chirping, and always a cheerful gait and a smiling face. These were two ascetics, and looking at them, I more than once again felt the strength in me, which had now completely extinguished.
Poetess.
You also have a father and mother,
Yet you are an orphan of Christ
You were born in a whirlpool of wars, -
Nevertheless, you will go to Jordan.
Without a key to an orphan of Christ
The gates of Christ will open.
Lead 2.
And nevertheless, there was a place on earth where she was absolutely happy and absolutely unhappy AT HIMSELF - the Czech Republic. Homeland is all who are without a country. Center for Russian emigration in the early 20's. Czech Republic, where she arrived at the age of thirty. She lived in the Czech Republic for exactly 3 years and 3 months, where her best poems were written, where her son George was born, where the hero of her poems was met - about the life she had not lived with whom she regretted all her life - Konstantin Rodzevich. A very bright and happy period; the collection "Separation", "Psyche", "Craft", "Tsar Maiden", "To Blok" is published. Blok is “a knight without reproach, almost a deity”. Although she was not familiar with him.
Poetess.
Your name is a bird in your hand
Your name is a piece of ice on your tongue.
One - only lip movement
Your name is five letters.
The ball caught on the fly
Silver bell in the mouth.
Your name - oh, you can't! -
Your name is a kiss in the eyes
In the gentle cold of motionless eyelids.
Your name is a kiss in the snow.
Key, icy, blue sip.
With your name - deep sleep.
Czech Republic for Tsvetaeva - Boldino. It was there that the peak of her creation was born - "Poem of the Mountain" and "Poem of the End".
Poetess.
You, who loved me with the false truth and the truth of lies,
Nowhere! - Abroad!
You who loved me longer
Time. - Swing your hands! -
You don't love me anymore
Truth in five words.
The song sounds to the words of Marina Tsvetaeva "I want by the mirror, where is the dregs ..."
Lead 3... And then - long years of silence, in emigration it, alas, did not take root - a society of "Friendship with the USSR" appeared; and her husband is an active figure in this union; in the West they are perceived as almost traitors and apostates.
Lead 2. In 1939 she returned to Russia with her son, following her husband and daughter. They've been there since 1937.
Poetess.
I will sing, earthly and alien,
Earthly tune!
Lead 1. In this “earthly melody” lies the beauty and power of Tsvetaeva's lyrics. Her poems are filled with music. It is not without reason that Andrei Bely commented on one of her collections: “Let me express my deep admiration for the completely winged melody of your book, Parting. This is not a book, but a song ... "
Outside of music (very different), outside of the musical atmosphere, Tsvetaeva does not represent her heroes. The melody determines the structure of their feelings, expresses a sensitive state of mind. Brodsky in one of his articles spoke about the “piano” nature of Tsvetaev's works, others noticed “a cello” and a bell in the village, “from some attic - a flute” ... She herself preferred to talk about the cello, as she appreciated the combination of music itself in this instrument with the timbre and warmth of a human voice. And Tsvetaeva's poems themselves are sung, designed by ear - without such perception, it is difficult to grasp their image, character.
Songs by M. Tsvetaeva, transcribed to music by the composer M. Tariverdiev, are performed. (From the film "Irony of Fate or Enjoy Your Bath")
. "I like that you are not sick with me."
Lead 3. Shortly before his death, Tsvetaeva writes: “All these days I want to write my will: I would generally like not to be ...” The war ... In 1941, with her son, she left for Elabuga. Disorder, thoughts of a husband, crisis, melancholy, complete loneliness, depression. She committed suicide on August 31, 1941. Here the supreme hour overtook her loneliness.
Reader.( Efron)“I know there is a legend that she committed suicide, allegedly ill mentally, in a moment of mental depression - do not believe it. It was killed by that time, it killed us, as it killed many, as it kills me too. We were healthy - the environment was madness: arrests, executions, suspicion, distrust of everyone to everyone and everything. Letters were opened, telephone conversations were overheard; every friend could turn out to be a traitor, every interlocutor - a scammer; constant surveillance, explicit, open. "
Lead 1. The best do not survive, it has long been known. Why is the Lord so impatient? Or is our local abode not the most suitable place for genius minds and bright souls? And, having worn out in the wretchedness of earthly space, they are cured of life - by slipping away?
Time, I can't keep up.
Measure, I do not fit.
Just before returning to her homeland, after 17 years of emigration, Tsvetaeva has a terrible dream. A dream about dying. She understood this and said so in her notes "The road to the next world. I rush uncontrollably, with a feeling of terrible longing and final farewell. The exact feeling that I am flying around the globe, and passionately - and hopelessly! - I hold on to it, knowing that the next circle will be the Universe that complete emptiness, which she was so afraid of in life on a swing, in an elevator, at the sea ..., inside myself. There was one consolation, that cannot be stopped, cannot be changed fatal ...
The song is performed by Alla Pugacheva on the verses of Marina Tsvetaeva "Requiem"
Poetess.
You go, you look like me,
Eyes directed down.
I let them down, too!
Passer-by, stop!
Read - chicken blindness
And typing a bouquet of poppies,
That they called me Marina
And how old I was.
Don't think that this is the grave
That I will appear threatening ...
I loved too much
Laugh when you can't!
And the blood rushed to my skin
And my curls curled ...
I was there too, passerby!
Passer-by, stop!
Rip your own stalk wild
And the berry after him, -
Graveyard strawberries
No bigger and sweeter.
But just don't stand gloomy
Head down on his chest.
Think about me easily
Forget about me easily
How a ray illuminates you!
You are covered in gold dust ...
- And don't be confused
Tsvetaeva's prophecy that her poems "have their turn" came true. Now they have entered the cultural life of the world, into our spiritual life, taking a high place in the history of poetry.
Final word
Tsvetaeva is a poet of the “ultimate truth of feeling”. She, with all her “not just the prevailing fate, with all the brightness and uniqueness of her original talent, rightfully entered Russian poetry,” as the poet Robert Rozhdestvensky said about her. She left us collections of lyric poems, 17 poems, poetic dramas, lyric essays and philosophical studies, memoir prose, memoirs and reflections.
Lead 2.
Our meeting has come to an end. Of course, she could not contain all the creativity of M.I. Tsvetaeva. Today, together we have flipped through several pages of the collection of poems of the poetess, but only slightly opened the door to the richest world of Marina Tsvetaeva's heritage. We hope that you have a desire to turn to Tsvetaeva's poetry and leaf through the collections of her poems. Until next time.
The song "I'll win you back ..." performed by Allegrova.

April 18 - Day of Historical and Cultural Heritage, the children's hall of the city library coincided with the anniversary date, the 125th anniversary of the birth of Marina Ivanovna Tsvetaeva. The traveling literary and musical lounge "God, do not judge, you were not a woman on Earth" was held at the Lazarevs' estate-museum in the village of Fryanovo, Shchelkovsky district.
2017 is the year of a number of Tsvetaev's jubilee dates. On October 8, we will celebrate the 125th anniversary of the birth of MI Tsvetaeva. May 16 will mark the 170th anniversary of the birth of Ivan Vladimirovich Tsvetaev (the founder of the Alexander Sh museum, now the Pushkin Museum). 105th anniversary of the birth of Ariadna Sergeevna Efron, daughter of Marina Ivanovna. And in the days of the October celebrations, another anniversary: 25 years since the opening of the House-Museum of M. I. Tsvetaeva in Moscow.
The event was attended by participants and laureates of the Interregional Tsvetaevsky festivals-contests in Tarusa, Kaluga region.
The portrait of Tsvetaeva was made by the Chernogolov artist Zhanna Sergeevna Abramova.
Time is a great "finder" - knows its job. At the same time, disgraced poets came to the fore and rightfully captured the attention of readers. The further we go from the year of Marina Ivanovna's death, the better we remember her fate. So let's try all together to touch the history of Tsvetaev's truths, the history of her life and love.
Marina (Anya Suchkova): “And most importantly, I know how they will love me ... in a hundred years. A lot of water will leak, and not only water, but also blood ... "
Nadezhda Solovieva sang a romance to Tsvetaeva's poems "I Want By the Mirror."
Guitar accompaniment Anna Alexandrovna Budyka.
Poems from the collection "Evening Album" were read by Dima Babak "Departure" and Masha Mishchenchuk: "We are going at a step (uphill hard), in a sleepy field there is thunder. "Asya, do you hear?" The poor thing is sleeping, overslept the ferry! " ("Ferry").
In her memoirs about her childhood spent in the town on the Oka River, Marina Ivanovna writes: “Little peaceful Tarusa”. Sonya Bezrukova read an excerpt from their autobiographical story "Khlystovka" or "Kirillovna". And she began with a poem:
“Give us back our childhood,
All multi-colored beads, -
Small, peaceful Tarusa
Summer days ".
“I described my childhood impressions in the stories“ The Tower in Ivy ”,“ Mother and Music ”,“ Damn, ”wrote Tsvetaeva.
Tanya Ulyanchenko read an excerpt from the story "Damn".
Throughout her life, through all her wanderings, troubles and misfortunes, Tsvetaeva carried her love for the Motherland, the Russian word, for Russian history. The poem "Generals of 1812" is dedicated to the Tuchkov brothers, participants in the Battle of Borodino, two of whom died in battle. A bewitching silence fell in the hall when Nadezhda Solovyova performed a romance to these verses.
Kristina Kostyuchenko read the poem "I wear his ring with challenge", dedicated to Tsvetaeva's husband Sergei Efron.
The poet Osip Mandelstam met the sisters Anastasia and Marina Tsvetaev in the summer of 1915 in Koktebel, in Voloshin's hospitable house. And on February 12, they were already walking around Moscow ...
Marina (Anya Suchkova) Osipu (Nikita Sedov): “What Marina - when Moscow, Marina - when Spring? Oh, you really do not love me ... Do you really not understand that the sky - raise your head and look! - a thousand times bigger than me ... "
Dedication to Mandelstam was read by Dasha Kulikova.
"Scythian lullaby" has long gone beyond the scope of the poem, and now the song is living an independent life. Tanya Ulyanchenko presented one of her interpretations.
Marina: “I am taking a decisive step: in 1922 I am going to my husband, shouldering the exorbitant burden of a Russian refugee on my fragile shoulders.”
Karina Mkrtchyan read the memoirs of the “Non-Zero Evening”.
An excerpt from the poem "Stenka Razin" was read by Olesya Orlova. Tsvetaeva often turned to the image of Stepan Razin. She was attracted by that part of the legend about Stenka, where he falls in love with a captive Persian woman, and then drowns her in the Volga - as a gift to the great river.
Marina: “From 1912 to 1920 I write continuously, but not a single book has been published. Only inveterate lovers of poetry know me ... ”Needless to say, this is a real tragedy for a poet. Marina Ivanovna replied to the reply of a newspaper reporter that she was "not remembered in Russia,"
Marina: “I had a name. I had an appearance. Attracting attention (I was told: "the head of a Roman woman") - and, finally, although I had to start with this: I had a gift - and all this - did not serve me, it hurt ... "Anya Suchkova read Tsvetaeva's" Letter Six ".
The time has come, and very soon - in the thirty-ninth, Marina Ivanovna appeared in Moscow. “It was then, in the forties, that my poetry began to circulate in Moscow. Of course, it was again a narrow circle, poetry was not published, there were no public speeches ... Here I am not needed, there I am impossible ... "
In the fall of 1940, the fate of the young poet Arseny Tarkovsky and Marina Tsvetaeva unexpectedly crossed, and even in such critical and significant times! He was 32 years old, she was 47.
“This was my last love,” wrote Marina. Soon she left for evacuation to Elabuga on the Kama.
Arseny (Nikita Sedov): “I learned about this in Moscow in early September before I left for the front. About death, but not about poetry ... Tsvetaeva's last poems are addressed specifically to me ... "
“You set the table for six,
But the world has not died out by six.
Than a scarecrow among the living -
I want to be a ghost - with yours,
... Nobody: not a brother. not a son, not a husband,
Not a friend - and yet I reproach:
- You, the table set for six - showers,
He who did not plant me is on the edge. "
Last photo of Marina Ivanovna
But in Yelabuga, horror looms to be left without work. Hoping to get something in Chistopol, where the evacuated Moscow writers were, Marina Ivanovna went there, received consent to a residence permit and left a statement. “To the Council of the Literary Fund. Please take me to work as a dishwasher in the opening dining room of the Literary Fund. August 26, 1941 ... "" ... Received a refusal. I gradually lose my sense of reality: me - less and less ... "
She passed away on August 31, 1941 in Yelabuga, in the dirty passage of a poor village hut, where she lived with her son Moore. The death certificate was issued to his son on September 1. In the column: "The occupation of the deceased" is written - "evacuated."
A life where we live so little. But on the other hand, how much she could in her notebooks! Such was the walk in the throes of the great Poet of the century ... Once Shakespeare said: “There are no guilty people in the world. But maybe someone Great will say someday, that everyone is to blame and will be no less right. "
Poetry readings and exhibitions, performances and films, thematic lectures and art media happening - the site has collected the most interesting events that have prepared theaters, museums and libraries for Marina Tsvetaeva's birthday.

Marina Tsvetaeva did not make it into the newsreels, her voice was not recorded on a single disc. She is remembered by several dozen photographs, portraits and handwritten heritage, as well as the memories of her contemporaries - relatives, friends, acquaintances, testimonies recorded from the words of storytellers, often anonymous. These stories about the life of Marina Tsvetaeva complement her poetry, prose, diary entries and letters.

The play "Stone Angel"
Igor Yatsko made a play based on Marina Tsvetaeva's play, despite the widespread belief that her works are not suitable for staging. The Stone Angel was considered lost and was only found in the mid-1960s.
The Globus Hall has become an ideal space for the implementation of the director's intention: the three-level structure corresponds to the dimensions in which the action unfolds. It begins on earth - in a medieval city near a fountain with a stone angel, to which young girls come to tell about their unhappy love, and only one, Aurora, about a happy one, about love for him - to the Angel.
Following the heroine, the viewer will descend into the lower world - the scene of the "Globe" is arranged in such a way that this descent should be taken literally. Venus and Cupid reign here, sending mental suffering to mortals. From heaven, from under the dome of the hall, an Angel will appear, already in the flesh, to disperse the dark darkness of the underworld and lead the deceived soul of Aurora to the Mother of God.
The director combines a dramatic performance with a small concert featuring bells, harpsichord, organ, lutes and a tambour-pipe. The performance features clavier and lute music by European composers of the 16th and early 17th centuries, performed by the multi-instrumentalist Pyotr Aidu. You can watch the production on October 8 at 19:00.
Art mediahappening "Above the Abyss"
The Stimul recreation center is waiting for its guests on October 8 at 17:00. The project is based on the work "Poem of the End". This is a lament for already ended love in the scenery of old Prague: an unsuccessful romance with Konstantin Rodzevich divided Marina Tsvetaeva's life into before and after.
The poetry will be read by Sergei Lepsky, an actor, director, laureate of the Union of Theater Workers of Russia prize "For directorial innovation in the theater". Guests will hear Alfred Schnittke's music performed by the Otom Group string ensemble and violinist Artem Givargizov, laureate of the international competition Virtuosi of the XXI century, composer-arranger of electronic music.
Olga Dmitrakova, a former member of the main cast of the Todes show-ballet, founder and head of the Assorti pop dance studio, is taking part in the project as a choreographer and performer.

The exhibition in the State Museum - Humanitarian Center "Overcoming" is also dedicated to the 170th anniversary of the birth of the father of the poet, philologist and art critic Ivan Tsvetaev.
In this mansion on Tverskaya lived Princess Zinaida Volkonskaya, who turned her house into a literary and musical salon, where Alexander Pushkin, Pyotr Vyazemsky, Adam Mitskevich, Vasily Zhukovsky and other prominent representatives of the golden age of Russian culture visited. Here was the famous Greek Room with many ancient sculptures, paintings and other exhibits. Later, Volkonskaya had the idea to create an aesthetic museum at the Imperial Moscow University. During her lifetime, her project did not materialize, but the plan was implemented in 1912 by Ivan Tsvetaev when he created the Museum of Fine Arts named after Emperor Alexander III.
As a tribute to the tradition of Zinaida Volkonskaya's salon, the curators gave a special place to casts of sculptures on antique themes. In the exhibition hall "Theater of the Age of Aristocrats" will be shown copies of the first antique sculptures and antique artifacts from the Tsvetaev family collection.

Literary and musical composition "Poems from the nursery"
Today is 125th anniversary of the birth of Marina Tsvetaeva... An amazing poet, an amazingly sensitive woman who lived a difficult life, loved, suffered, lost in time, lost her country and never managed to find her place in the new state.
M. Tsvetaeva. On the back by the hand of A.S. Efron "10s, MC in an old armchair"
The way she was is best conveyed by her poems. Today everyone quotes her poems written by Marina Ivanovna for her own birth:
With a red brush
The rowan was lit up.
Leaves were falling.
I was born.
Hundreds argued
Bells.
The day was Saturday:
John the Evangelist.
Me to this day
I want to gnaw
Hot rowan
Bitter brush.
Marina Tsvetaeva and Sergey Efron. 1911 year.
But there were others. A lot others. There were dedicated to her husband, Sergei Efron, whom Marina met in 1911 in Koktebel, where she came to visit Maximilian Voloshin:
And there was immediately a charm.
Bowed down, royally simple. -
And there was a terrible radiance
Two dark stars.
And them, huge, squinting,
You did not recognize, gentle face,
What a storm played here -
In another moment.
I fought heroically.
- We even ate soup with you! -
I remember a muffled voice
And a sketch of the lips.
And hair, fluffy fur,
And - the most dear to you! -
Adorable wrinkles of laughter
Long eyes.
I remember - you already forgot -
You were sitting there, I am here.
What efforts it took me
What minutes -
Sit blowing smoke rings
And complete rest ...
I was just unbearable
Sit like that.
Do you remember this conversation
About the climate and about the letter yat.
To such a strange dinner
It will never happen.
Half a turn, in the twilight
I laugh, not expecting myself:
"The eyes of a thoroughbred dog,
"Farewell, Count."
Alya with Irina. 1919 g.
And this is for daughters. The poems were written in the first half of April 1920, after the death of Irina, the youngest daughter of Marina Tsvetaeva. The government has already changed in the country. Sergei Efron is abroad, they have been separated for several years and Marina did not even know if he was alive. She survived in her house as best she could, starved, looked for any job. Left without a livelihood, she sent her children to an orphanage. She was promised that there they would be full. But Irina died at the orphanage. Tsvetaeva was repeatedly reproached for callousness in relation to her youngest daughter, but read these verses. They will tell you everything:
Two hands, easily dropped
On an infant's head!
There were - one for each -
I have been granted two heads.
But both - squeezed -
Furious - as I could! -
Snatching the elder from the darkness -
She did not save the younger one.
Two hands - caress - smooth
Delicate heads are lush.
Two hands - and here is one of them
It turned out to be superfluous during the night.
Light - on a thin neck -
Dandelion on the stem!
I still do not understand at all
That my child is in the ground.
Marina Tsvetaeva. 1914-1915
You are 1922, Marina Ivanovna leaves Russia to her husband, whom she managed to find thanks to Ilya Ehrenburg. Efron also did not know what happened to her, whether she survived. First they live in Prague, then in Paris. But the emigration did not accept Tsvetaeva. She was strongly influenced by the atmosphere around her due to her husband's activities. Efron was accused of being recruited by the NKVD and participating in a conspiracy against Lev Sedov, Trotsky's son. It is almost never published. And she yearns for Russia. Later Tsvetaeva writes about it this way: "My failure in emigration is that I am not an emigrant, that I am in spirit, that is, by air and in scope - there, there, from there ..."
In 1934, she wrote the poem "Longing for the Homeland":
Homesickness! For a long time
Trouble Unveiled!
I don't care at all -
Where completely lonely
Be on what stones to go home
Stroll with the bazaar wallet
Into the house, and not knowing what is mine,
Like a hospital or a barracks.
I don't care which among
Faces bristle captive
Leo, from what human environment
To be displaced - certainly -
Into oneself, into one-man feelings.
Kamchatka bear without ice floe
Where not to get along (and I'm not trying!),
Where to humiliate - I am one.
I will not delude myself with my tongue
Relatives, his milky appeal.
I don't care what
Incomprehensible to be oncoming!
(Reader, newspaper tons
A swallower, a gossip milker ...)
Twentieth century - he,
And I - until every century!
Dumbfounded like a log
Remaining from the alley
Everything is equal to me, everything is equal to me,
And, perhaps, the most equal -
The former is dearer - of everything.
All the signs are from me, all the meta,
All dates are gone:
The soul born is somewhere.
So the edge did not save me
My, that and the most keen-sighted detective
Along the whole soul, all - across!
He won't find a birthmark!
Every house is alien to me, every temple is empty to me,
And everything is the same, and everything is one.
But if there is a bush on the way
Rises, especially - rowan ...
Marina Tsvetaeva with her son. 1930s.
Already abroad, in February 1925, Marina Tsvetaeva gave birth to a son. Georgy Efron, at home he was called Moore, grew up without knowing Russia. The first time he sees the country only in 1939. Tsvetaeva and her son returned to the USSR following her husband and daughter, who had left here even earlier. But what poems Marina dedicated to her son even before her return, in January 1932:
Neither to the city nor to the village -
Go, my son, to your country, -
To the edge - all the edges on the contrary! -
Where to go back - forward
Go - especially - you,
Russia has never seen
My child ... Mine? Her -
Child! The same reality
With which the reality grows.
Earth, crumbled into dust,
Is it possible for a child in the cradle
Carry in shaking handfuls:
"Russia - this dust, honor - this dust!"
From untested losses -
Go - wherever your eyes look!
All countries - eyes, from all over the earth -
Eyes, and blue are yours
Eyes I look into:
In the eyes looking at Russia.
Let us not bow down to words!
Russia - to great-grandfathers, Russia - to us,
To you - the enlighteners of the caves -
Draft: USSR, -
No less in the darkness of heaven
Draft than: SOS.
Our homeland will not call us!
Drive, my son, home - forward -
To your land, in your age, in your hour, - from us -
To Russia - you, to Russia - the masses,
In our hour - the country! at this hour - the country!
To on-Mars - the country! into a country without us!
Marina Tsvetaeva. 1930s.
Marina Ivanovna did not find happiness in the USSR. Their whole family was settled at the dacha of the NKVD in Bolshev. And in the same year, 39, on August 27, her daughter Ariadne was arrested, and on October 10 - Efron. Marina never saw them again. During this period, Tsvetaeva practically did not write poetry, doing translations. But here are her poems dated January 7, 1940:
Two - hotter than fur! hands - hotter than fluff!
The circle is around the head.
But also under the fur - bliss, under the fluff
Gaga - you will falter!
Even a thousand-handed goddess
- In the nests, in the black stars -
No matter how you circle you, no matter how lull you
- Ah! - you are awake ...
Unbelief gnaws at you even on the bed
Worm (poor we!).
Not yet born, who will invest
The finger is in the wound of Thomas.
Marina Tsvetaeva, 1935
The war found Tsvetaeva behind the translations of Federico García Lorca. Work had to be interrupted due to the county being evacuated. She and her son arrive in the town of Elabuga on the Kama. Here they lived in a house where Marina had a corner behind a curtain. The last poem by Marina Ivanovna Tsvetaeva is dated March 6, 1941. At least the last one we found:
I keep repeating the first verse
And all I am ferrying the word:
- "I laid the table for six" ...
You have forgotten one - the seventh.
The six of you are sad.
On their faces - rain streams ...
How could you at such a table
To forget the seventh - the seventh ...
Your guests are not happy
The crystal decanter is inactive.
Sad - to them, sad - myself,
The unnamed is the saddest of all.
It was sad and dull.
Oh! do not eat or drink.
- How could you forget the number?
How could you be wrong in the account?
How could, how dare you not understand
That six (two brothers, the third -
You yourself - with your wife, father and mother)
There are seven - since I am in the world!
You set the table for six
But the world has not died out by six.
Than a scarecrow among the living -
I want to be a ghost - with yours,
(By their own) ...
Timid like a thief
Oh - not touching a soul! -
For an undelivered device
I sit down uninvited, seventh.
Once! - knocked over the glass!
And everything that longed to be spilled -
All the salt from the eyes, all the blood from the wounds -
From the tablecloth to the floorboards.
And - there is no coffin! Parting - no!
The table is disenchanted, the house is awakened.
Like death to a wedding dinner
I am the life that has come to dinner.
... Nobody: not a brother, not a son, not a husband,
Not a friend - and yet I reproach:
- You, who set the table for six - showers,
He who did not plant me - on the edge.
On August 31, 1941, Marina Tsvetaeva committed suicide. Shortly before her death, she wrote - "For a year now I have been looking for a hook with my eyes." She hanged herself in the Brodelshchikovs' house, where she and her son were assigned to a post.
Marina Tsvetaeva was buried at the Peter and Paul cemetery in Yelabuga. Her grave was lost and we only know the approximate place of her burial.
Of course, this is only a small part of her life and work. Everything is much more complicated, fuller, richer. But if you want, you will find a lot of information about Marina Ivanovna. The network also contains her poems and stories about her life. Recommended to read Marina Tsvetaeva which we wrote several years ago. This was before the renovation of the museum. We definitely plan to visit it again and compare it with what happened. And we advise you.
