“Have a heart, have a soul, and you will be a man at all times.”

DI. Fonvizin

Fonvizin Denis Ivanovich - great Russian writer, one of the most famous Russian writers of Catherine's era, talented creator of the first Russian domestic comedy, playwright, publicist and translator.

Writer r got dressed April 14, 1744 years in a wealthy noble Moscow family. He spent his childhood in a patriarchal atmosphere in the house of his father, Ivan Andreevich Fonvizin, who was an official of the Moscow Revision Board.

His origins were the most noble: his ancestral historical roots went back to the ancient knightly family, whose representatives settled in Russia under Ivan the Terrible, having left Livonia. Until mid X IX century, the surname of this family was written in two words or with a hyphen Von-Wiesen (or Von-Wiesin, German von Wiesen). This eminent family gave Russia several generations of serving nobles.

In 1755-1760 studied at the gymnasium at Moscow University, then for a year at the university’s Faculty of Philosophy. IN student years began publishing in Moscow magazines.

In 1762 he moved to St. Petersburg and took the position of translator at the College of Foreign Affairs. In 1763 - 69 he served as secretary of the cabinet minister I. Elagin, who was in charge of the analysis of petitions for the highest name, and from 1766 - of the imperial theaters.

During these same years, Fonvizin became close to a circle of young freethinking officers and, under their influence, created the satirical work “Message to My Servants...” (1769). Interest in theater was expressed in work on an original Russian satirical comedy (before that he had adapted foreign comedies “to Russian customs”). "The Brigadier", written in 1766 - 69 and staged in 1770, was published only in 1792 - 95. N. Novikov said about this comedy: “it was composed exactly in our morals.”

In 1777-78 he traveled abroad, to France and Germany, which he later wrote about in “Notes of the First Traveler,” which played a crucial role in the development of Russian prose.

His most significant work, a comedy "Undergrown"(1781), Fonvizin created in the atmosphere of reaction that came after the suppression of the Pugachev rebellion. It directly indicates the root of all Russia's ills - serfdom and public ignorance, which, according to Fonvizin, can be overcome by reforms in the spirit of the Enlightenment.

In March 1782 he resigned, deciding to devote himself completely to literary creativity. In 1783 he published a number of satirical works: “The Experience of a Russian Estatesman”, “Petition to the Russian Minevra from Russian Writers”, “The Narrative of an Imaginary Deaf and Mute”.

In 1784–85, Fonvizin visited Germany and Italy, anonymously published in French “The Life of Count Nikita Ivanovich Panin,” painting the image of an ideal enlightened nobleman.

In the future, Fonvizin was not allowed to appear in print; the five-volume collection of his works was not published. His articles were distributed only in lists.

The last years of his life the writer was seriously ill, but literary studies did not leave: he began the autobiographical story “A Sincere Confession of My Deeds and Thoughts” (it was not completed, but even in its unfinished form it is a wonderful example of Russian prose).

DI. Fonfizin died in St. Petersburg on December 12, 1872. He was buried in the Alexander Nevsky Lavra.

1. Denis Ivanovich Fonvizin is one of the remarkable representatives of the century, who shared with him its ups and downs, hopes and disappointments.

On the one hand, he is a secular man who has made an excellent career (personal secretary of I. Elagin and N. Panin, after Panin’s resignation, he headed the postal department), quite rich, one of the first in Russia to begin to deal with the acquisition of art objects abroad, on the other hand - “The Satires of the Brave Lord” and “Friend of Freedom”, the author of “The Minor”, ​​“Court Grammar”, who compiled the famous “Testament of Panin” (certain provisions of this document were used by the Decembrists in their political platforms), a man who was suspected of conspiracy against Catherine.

The personality is lively and captivating. A.S. Pushkin wrote about him:

It was a famous writer,

Famous Russian merry fellow,

The mocker with his laurels

Denis, the ignorant are scourged and afraid.

He was an unusually witty person. From memoirs: “Very early on, a penchant for satire appeared in me... my sharp words rushed around Moscow, and as they were caustic for many, the offended denounced me as an evil and dangerous boy. ... They soon began to fear me, then hate me.” Fonvizin had the gift of a parodist and also had undoubted artistic abilities. In a home performance in the Apraksins’ house, he played the role of Taras Skotinin (!). From the memoirs of contemporaries (about reading the comedy “The Brigadier” in the Hermitage for Catherine and her entourage): “... showed his talent in all its brilliance. ... he depicted the most noble nobles in their faces, engaged in an argument while playing whist, so skillfully, as if they themselves were here.”

Coming from a German aristocratic family (which had become fairly Russified by the 18th century), received a good education, and was an expert in European languages, Fonvizin, in the words of A.S. Pushkin, was “from the Per-Russian Russians.” From the writer’s letter: “If any of my young fellow citizens who have a sound mind become indignant, seeing abuses and disorder in Russia, and begin to alienate themselves from it in their hearts, then to convert to proper love for the fatherland there is no better way than to send him as soon as possible.” To France. Here, of course, he will learn very soon by experience that all the stories about the perfection here are a complete lie, that he is just smart and worthy person is rare everywhere and that in our fatherland, no matter how bad things sometimes happen in it, you can, however, be just as happy as in any other country.” Looking ahead a little, I would like to note the following. In 1785, he translated Zimmermann’s book “Discourse on National Curiosity” into Russian. In this translation, he expressed and at the same time deepened his understanding of the essence and nature of patriotism - “love of the fatherland, civic virtue, which is associated with love of freedom.”

2.Early work of D.I. Fonvizin associated with the ideas of the French and German enlightenment. Thus, he translated into Russian the Moral Fables of the Danish Enlightenment and Satirist L. Golberg, the novel Heroic Virtue, or the Life of Seth, King of Egypt by J. Terrason, and the anticlerical drama Alzira by Voltaire.

He also wrote satires. One of them has reached our time: “Message to my servants, Shumilov, Vanka and Petrushka” (1760).

His next important period literary activity associated with I.P. Elagin’s circle. The circle, along with Fonvizin (then still von Vizin), included talented representatives of the golden youth of St. Petersburg: Vladimir Lukin, Fyodor Kozlovsky, Bogdan Elchaninov. They began to “inflect the texts of foreign plays into Russian morals”: ​​they moved the scene of action to Russia, gave the characters Russian names, and introduced some features of Russian life. This is how the well-known comedies of the 18th century by I. Elagin “The Russian Frenchman” (an adaptation of Golberg’s play), Vl. Lukin’s “Mot Corrected by Love” (an adaptation of a play by Detouche), and D. Fonvizin’s “Corion” (an adaptation of a play by Gresse) appeared.

2. Original comedy creativity of D.I. Fonvizin connected with the history of the creation and production of his famous plays “The Brigadier” and “The Minor.” Fonvizin worked on the comedy “The Brigadier” in 1768-1769. According to contemporaries: “This is the first comedy in our morals.” Its themes: 1) education of nobles; 2) extortion and bribery; 3) the emergence of new people. The genre of “Brigadier” is comedy of manners with elements of slapstick comedy. For the first time in the history of Russian comedy, it presents such techniques as 1) travesty of the structure of bourgeois drama (respectable fathers of families embark on love affairs) 2) the technique of self-exposure of the character; 3) verbal techniques of the comic (use of macaroonisms, puns).

3. The comedy “The Minor” is the pinnacle of the playwright’s creativity. He worked on it starting in the 1770s. Its premiere took place on September 24, 1782 in St. Petersburg on the Field of Mars. The most famous Russian actors took part in the production: Dmitrevsky, Plavilshchikov, Mikhailova, Shumsky.

Ivan Dmitrevsky, who played Starodum, chose the play for his benefit performance. At this time, he returned from a brilliant tour of Europe, thanks to which, in fact, the production of “The Minor” became possible; Catherine was afraid of publicity. Subsequently, the play was removed from the repertoire, but its premieres still took place in a number of provincial theaters. The play was a stunning success; it was celebrated by throwing purses onto the stage. G. Potemkin is credited with the famous phrase: “Die Denis or don’t write anything else, your name known from this one play!”

Comedy genre research literature is not defined unambiguously: it is called popular, political, and high.

The problems are also multifaceted: 1) the hidden anti-Catherine orientation is palpable in it: “the edge of political satire was directed against the main social evil of the era - the complete lack of control of the highest authorities, which gave rise to moral devastation and arbitrariness” (P.N. Berkov). Interesting materials, in our opinion, confirming this point of view is available in the book by Yu.V. Stennik “Russian satire of the 18th century. L., 1985, pp. 316-337). In particular, this is an analysis undertaken by the scientist of the plays of the empress herself, the scene of trying on a caftan in the first act of Fonvizin’s play, a comparison of the dialogues of Starodum and Pravdin in the third act of the comedy with Fonvizin’s text “Discourses on the indispensable state laws” 2) the problem of the true dignity of a nobleman; 3) education in the broad sense of the word.

The comedy is masterfully constructed. Three levels of structure are noteworthy: 1) plot; 2) comedic-satirical, 3) ideal-utopian. Basic compositional technique- contrast. The climax can be considered a kind of examination of Mitrofan in the fourth act of the play.

Moreover, each level of the structure has its own style dominant: compositional-satirical - superbly written morally descriptive satire; ideal-utopian - the dialogue manner of philosophical treatises (for more details, see: Stennik Yu.V. Op. cit.).

The question of the similarities and differences between this comedy and the classic comedies of Western Europe also seems important. As a rule, such comedies did not allow 1) mixing of the serious and the comic; 2) the images-characters became carriers of one character property; 3) consisted of five acts, with the climax necessarily occurring in the third act; 4) demonstrated the rules of three unities; 5) comedies were written in free verse.

On this basis, the following classicistic features can be identified in Fonvizin’s comedy:

1) it also demonstrated the author’s rationalistic interpretation of reality (low reality was displayed in a low genre);

2) her images became bearers of certain advantages and disadvantages, which was secured by the presence of meaningful/speaking surnames/nicknames;

3) consisted of five actions;

4) demonstrated the rule of three unities.

There were also serious differences. They can be boiled down to the following points:

1) there was a mixture of the serious and the comic in it;

2) a description of everyday life has been introduced;

3) there was some individualization of the characters and their linguistic manner;

4) the climax is attributed to the fourth act;

5) the comedy is written in prose.

We will clarify all these points in detail during the practical lesson.

In the 80s, D.I. Fonvizin became the author of remarkable publications in the “Interlocutor of Lovers of the Russian Word” (“Several questions that can arouse special attention in smart and honest people”, “The Experience of a Russian Estatesman”, “A Petition to the Russian Minerva from Russian Writers , “Narrative of an imaginary deaf and dumb”); participated in the compilation of the “Dictionary of the Russian Language” (he compiled dictionary entries for the letters “K” and “L”); translated Zimmerman’s book “Discourses on National Curiosity”, Schubart’s fable “The Fox the Executor”, wrote the story “Callisthenes”, attempted to publish a new magazine “Friend of Honest People, or Starodum” and even prepared several original materials for it, unfortunately, the magazine was banned by censorship; compiled “Court Grammar”, spoke in the genre of confession (“Frank confession of my deeds and actions”), two out of four books were completed.

On November 30, at the Derzhavins’ house, already seriously ill, the writer read his new play “The Tutor’s Choice.” And on December 1, 1792 he was gone.
