Poet about himself

When a poet, describing a lady,
He starts: “I was walking down the street. A corset dug into the sides,
Here "I" do not understand, of course, directly -
That, they say, a poet is hiding under the lady.
I will open the truth to you in a friendly way:
The poet is a man. Even with a beard.

(real name - Glikberg Alexander Mikhailovich)

(1880-1932) Russian prose writer and poet

Sasha Cherny's childhood passed in the Ukrainian town of Belaya Tserkov. The boy's father worked as a pharmacist in a pharmacy, and then became a chemical agent. For some time Sasha studied in a cheder, but could not master the Hebrew language, and then his father decided to give him a classical education.

The Glikberg family moved to Zhytomyr, where Alexander was baptized. From the age of ten he began to study at the city gymnasium. Subsequently, he recalled this time as the most difficult period of childhood. He was older than the other students in the class, but lagged behind due to poor memory and inability to concentrate. In addition, he was practically devoid of maternal affection. In the sixth grade, Alexander was expelled from the gymnasium with a "wolf ticket", that is, without the right to enter a similar educational institution.

Desperate, he runs away from home and gets to St. Petersburg, where, having settled with relatives, he still enters the gymnasium. However, in order to get a matriculation certificate, Alexander had to return to Zhytomyr. His father suddenly dies, his mother marries and practically abandons her son. An acquaintance of the family, K. Roche, who occupied a major post in the provincial peasant presence, becomes Alexander's tutor. He vouched for the young man, and he is again accepted into the gymnasium.

Rocher had a beneficial effect on Alexander, introduced him to poetry, which he himself was passionately fond of.

Having received a matriculation certificate, Alexander gets a job as an office worker in the local customs. But in fact, he works as a secretary to Roche, who has become his guardian. At the same time, he began to publish in the newly opened city newspaper Volynsky Vestnik: he wrote reviews, a chronicle of local social life, and in 1904 published a series of essays under common name"Resonator's Diary".

At the beginning of 1905, Alexander's life suddenly changes, as his guardian becomes the head of the Warsaw Railway and moves to St. Petersburg. Roche suits Alexander as a senior clerk in the road administration. N. Vasilyeva, who was in charge of the office, falls in love with a young man and soon becomes his wife.

Vasilyeva introduces the novice writer into the circle of St. Petersburg scientists and philosophers. She herself was a niece famous philosopher Professor of St. Petersburg University A. Vvedensky and a distant relative of the entrepreneur G. Eliseev.

After moving to St. Petersburg, Glikberg began to publish in one of the leading magazines of that time, the Spectator. On November 27, 1905, he published the anti-government pamphlet Nonsense, under which he first put the pseudonym Sasha Cherny.

The publication, in which they saw allusions to Nicholas II, caused a sharp reaction from the authorities: the magazine was closed for some time. But the scandal made Cherny's name famous, and various satirical magazines began to publish his works.

Censorship clearly monitored the publications of Sasha Cherny, because his works immediately became famous, learned by heart. When he prepared for printing a collection of poems and satirical essays "Various Motives" (1905), the circulation was almost completely confiscated.

To avoid a possible arrest, acquaintances and publishers advised Sasha Cherny to leave Russia. In the summer of 1906, the Glickbergs left for Germany and spent more than a year abroad. Alexander worked hard and hard, listened to lectures at the university, wrote a cycle of lyrical satires, and many essays. Since 1906, he has been acting as a prose writer.

Returning to Russia in early 1908, Sasha Cherny became an employee of the weekly satirical magazine Satyricon. Soon the publication gains all-Russian popularity and becomes the leading satirical organ, and the poet - an all-Russian celebrity. Contemporaries even called him the Russian Heine, the king of the poets of the Satyricon. Here is the opinion of the publisher M. Kornfeld: "Sasha Cherny is a satirist by the grace of God." Sasha Cherny combines his works into two collections - "Satires" (1910) and "Satire and Lyrics" (1913). The first of them withstood five editions by 1917.

He managed to create his own type of hero, skinny, thin and nasty, sometimes prone to self-disclosure.

The poet creates satires of a political nature, addresses social topics, writes lyrical poems. These works are interesting with figurative characteristics, well-aimed epithets (“a continuous carnival of small fry”, “two-legged moles not worth a day of earthly time”), bright details (“throws a leaning bald patch into sweat”, “a lone saffron milk sour on a saucer”).

Throughout his life, Sasha Cherny tried to move away from the role of a satirist, but nevertheless he is perceived precisely as the author of such works.

Realizing the imperfection of relations in the Satyricon, he actively collaborates with various magazines, writes satires, lyric poems, landscape and everyday sketches, acts as a prose writer and author of poems for children, and tries his hand as a translator.

In 1911, Sasha Cherny wrote the first poem for children - "Bonfire", followed by others: "Chimney Sweep", "In Summer", "Bobkin's Horse", "Train". Gorky invites him to work on the collection "The Blue Book", in which Cherny's first fairy tale appears - "Red Stone". In 1912, he began collaborating with Chukovsky in the Firebird magazine.

Poems by Sasha Cherny, written in a simple, clear language, often resemble nursery rhymes, counting rhymes. They show the character of a child-why, figuratively perceiving the world. In 1913, the "Children's ABC" was published, according to which more than one generation of children is taught to read and write.

During the First World War, the poet volunteered for the front, worked in a hospital, social activities. Military impressions were reflected in a number of his works. After the revolution, the cycle of poems "War" was published, and in exile Cherny will publish "Soldier's Tales" (1933), created on the basis of stories heard in the army. His character is created in the style everyday fairy tale about a skilled and experienced soldier. Black acts as a brilliant imitator of the tale, the researchers noted the art of stylization, the impossibility of distinguishing folk proverbs and sentences from the authors: “Cossacks are supposed to be bouffant for force”, “Your rank is semi-officer, and cockroaches suck footcloths in your head”, “I am left alone, like a bug on a blanket.”

Sasha Cherny did not accept the October Revolution and left for Lithuania. There, on a quiet farm, he tries to comprehend what is happening and comes to the conclusion that he has become a refugee, an emigrant. The poet bitterly states that he has grown significantly and turned from Sasha into Alexander, so he now signs his works - Alexander Cherny.

Gradually, he manages to prepare his previous poetry collections for publication and release a new collection, the third in a row, Thirst (1923). But Sasha Cherny's main interests are centered around writing for children's magazines. The world of the child was well known to the writer: his wife gave lessons in private schools and gymnasiums.

Life in exile improved gradually, at first the Glickbergs lived in Berlin, but because of the publishing crisis they had to leave for Rome. In 1925, they settled in Paris, and with a fee from Fox Mickey's Diary (1927), they were even able to build a small country house in a Russian colony in southern France on the Mediterranean coast.

Sasha Cherny actively collaborates in various emigre publications, publishes one after another books for children: Bible Tales (1922), Professor Patrashkin's Dream (1924), Seafaring Squirrel (1926), Ruddy Book (1931) , "Silver Tree" (1929), "Cat Sanatorium" (1928), "Wonderful Summer" (1930).

The adult works of Sasha Cherny are published in 1928 - he combines the works published earlier in magazines in the book “Fun Stories”.

A tragic accident ends the writer's life. After a fire that occurred at a neighbor, he felt unwell and, returning home, soon died.

Information about the work of Sasha Cherny may be needed for students in grades 3, 4 in preparation for the lesson.

Poet Sasha Cherny. short biography

Alexander Mikhailovich Glikberg was born (it was he who later took the pseudonym Sasha Cherny) on October 1, 1880 in the city of Odessa. His parents were Jewish, which later had an impact on his development and perception of the world due to his specific upbringing. There were five children in the family, two of whom had the name Sasha. Our poet was a brunette, and therefore received the nickname "black", which later became his pseudonym.

In order to get an education in a gymnasium, the boy was baptized in Russian Orthodox Church but he never finished school. Sasha ran away from home and began to beg. This story was written in the newspaper, and the local philanthropist K. K. Roche, touched by the story of the boy, took him to his upbringing. Rocher adored poetry and taught young Glickberg to this, gave him a good education and pushed Sasha to start writing poetry. It is Roche that can be considered godfather Sasha in the field of literature and poetry.

Young summers

From 1901 to 1902, Alexander served as an ordinary soldier, after that he worked in the Novoselensk customs. At this time, the newspaper "Volynsky Vestnik" publishes the first work young writer- "The diary of a reasoner", signed "By itself", which caused him to special interest local intelligentsia. This is what gave the guy the nickname "poet".

Sasha Cherny did not stop writing even in St. Petersburg, where he moved in 1905. He was published in such newspapers and magazines as "Journal", "Almanac", "Masks", "Spectator" and others. Although the poet's popularity increased, not everything was as smooth as it might seem at first glance. The satire "Nonsense", published in the magazine "Spectator", led to the closure of the publication, and the collection "Different Motives" was banned due to non-compliance with censorship. Because of this, the young poet had problems with the authorities and the owners of the magazine, for some time he was not accepted in society, made a kind of outcast.

However, the newspaper quickly closed down. The young man, already carried away by literature, decides to move to St. Petersburg. Here Sasha was sheltered by the relatives of Konstantin Roche. Alexander served as an official on the Warsaw railway. His boss was Maria Ivanovna Vasilyeva. Despite the fact that she was several years older than Sasha, they became close and in 1905 got married. Alexander Glikberg left his job in the office and devoted himself entirely to literary creativity. So he became Sasha Cherny.

Study and work

While living in Germany, Alexander not only created and wrote his brilliant works, but also studied at the University of Heidelberg during 1906-1908.

His very first poem "Nonsense", published under an unknown pseudonym, led to the closure of the magazine "Spectator", in which it was published, and spread in lists throughout the country. Sasha Cherny's poems, both sarcastic and gentle, have gained all-Russian popularity. Korney Chukovsky wrote: "... having received a fresh issue of the magazine, the reader, first of all, looked for Sasha Cherny's poems in it."

In 1906, a collection of poems "Different Motives" was published, which was soon banned by censorship due to political satire, but this does not stop the author.

In 1908, he returned to St. Petersburg, where he became an employee of the Satyricon magazine, and also published in such publications as Argus, Sovremenny Mir, Sovremennik, Sun of Russia, Odessa News, "Russian Rumor" and "Kiev News", publishes the first books.

At the same time he worked as a prose writer, publishing collections and children's books. However, unable to bear the horrors of the war, he fell into depression and was placed in a hospital.

After October revolution in the fall of 1918, Alexander left for the Baltic states, and in 1920 for Germany. For some time the poet lived in Italy, then in Paris. In the south of France he spent last years life.

During his short life, Sasha Cherny traveled a lot around the world, visited Berlin, Nice, Paris, Rome, Kyiv, Tbilisi, but finally emigrated in 1920 and settled in Berlin. His poems of the emigrant period are imbued with painful nostalgia. In 1923, a volume of poems "Thirst" was published in Germany - a very sad book about burning homesickness, about emigrant orphanhood.

In exile, Sasha worked in newspapers and magazines, arranged literary evenings, traveled around France and Belgium, spoke with poetry to Russian listeners, and published books. A special place in his work was now occupied by prose addressed to both adults and children.

The death of Sasha Cherny was sudden and unexpected: risking his life, he helped his neighbors put out the fire, and then, already at home, he had heart attack. Sasha Cherny died in France in the town of Lavandu on August 5, 1932. He was only 52 years old.

Despite all the genius and majesty of the poet, Alexander's grave has not been found to this day. She was lost, because there was no one to pay for her, and nothing with what.
