The image of the Russian estate. Modern estates

The estate, as the basis of the life of the nobility, economy and culture of the Russian Empire, was a vivid expression of the national genius and a place of contact between elite and folk cultures. The disappeared world of the Russian estate left a lot of literary and documentary evidence. Equivalent, from a historical point of view, although not equal in artistic qualities, photographs recreate the bygone poetic world of family nests and pictures of the private life of large noble and merchant families. Observing the disappearance of the estate culture A.N. Grech argued that after 1930 it should be perceived only with the "eyes of memory". Visualizing the memory of several pre-revolutionary generations, photographic images reveal this phenomenon of Russian life visibly and fully. The manor appears at the exhibition from several angles: from front views of large estates and amateur photographs from family albums to artistic images of ancient parks and abandoned estates.

The exposition opens with custom-made ceremonial views of estates, made by masters of the largest ateliers. The plot of the estate views, the features of printing, and sometimes the composition were determined not only by the views of the photographer himself, but also by the wishes of the customer. The photographs show architectural complexes and landscapes, the owners were taken in their favorite estates. The glorified, Ilyinsky, Porechye are depicted in a similar way. To unique examples of early manor photography of the 1860s. include stereo daguerreotypes of the studio “T. Schneider and Sons" with Maryin's interiors, photographs taken by M.N. Sherer, and created by M.B. Tulinov.

Amateur photographs, the authors of which are the owners and guests of the estates themselves, are distinguished by the immediacy of the plots and the liveliness of the composition. The subjects of the photographs are diverse: genre scenes (picnics, boating, hiking), portraits of servants and guests, private rooms, secluded corners of the park and surroundings that are dear to the heart. At the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, photography became an accessible form of artistic activity. Summer leisure in Russian society is traditionally associated with the estate, so images of everyday pleasurable life on the estate have become widespread. The appearance of amateur photographs is not related to the aesthetic or historical value of the estate, they were born by the harmonious atmosphere of the estate life, common family activities.

Documentary photographs reflect the emerging in the 1890-1910s. great interest in the study and preservation of the Russian estate with its artistic and historical artifacts. The estate began to be perceived as a unique synthetic phenomenon of art and a place of ancestral memory. Photographers recorded the features of the architectural ensemble and the interior complex of the estates. P.P. Pavlov, N.N. Ushakov, A.A. Ivanov-Terentiev.

At the beginning of the XX century. the myth of the Russian estate took shape in literary and artistic form, and an idea was formed of it as a symbol of the outgoing noble culture. The author's view of photographers was attracted by landscapes and details that conveyed the special passionist mood of estate life - the poetry of dying, the outgoing grandeur. The main objects of the image - the manor nature and the park - became spiritualized, emotionally colored. The artistically transformed image of the estate, as if hidden by a light haze of memories, corresponds to the techniques of pictorial photography. The idea of ​​the estate was embodied in the iconic images of photography - the young lady and the alley. Most of the works come from the fund of the Russian Photographic Society - the pearl of the photo collection of the Historical Museum. Photos by A.S. Mazurin, N.A. Petrova, N.S. Krotkova, V.N. Chasovnikova, V.N. Shokhin were shown at competitions and were selected for the future Museum of Light Painting.

The 1920s is the last significant period in the development of the estate theme. Interest in the study of the estate's heritage and the poetry of ruined nests attracted leading Soviet photo artists. Having become exclusively a phenomenon of the past, the estate acquired the possibility of new interpretations. Photo studies of outstanding domestic masters embody not the beautiful outgoing Silver Age, but the former, irretrievably lost, dead past. Most of the photographs were shown at the famous exhibition "Soviet Photography in 10 Years" in 1928. Subsequently, the disappearance of the estate culture as a living and powerful tradition led to the absence of the image of the estate in Soviet photography.

The era of urbanization is passing - people are tired of living among dust, asphalt and exhaust gases. People want to break free, they want the real, pure and natural. And thanks to the high level of progress, life in the bosom of nature and the modern level of comfort are now quite compatible concepts. Moving out of the city, we remember how our ancestors lived and apply their experience in a new life.

The history of the Russian estate spans almost six centuries. Even in the period of ancient Russia in any village there was a house of the "owner" that stood out among others - the prototype of a local estate. The word "estate" comes from the Russian verb "sit down", and, as a phenomenon, the estate took root on Russian soil because, according to researchers, it invariably remained for the owner a corner of the world, mastered and equipped for himself.

A family homestead is not just a country house and the land adjacent to it, but also a spiritual territory where a variety of events in the life of your family are collected and captured. Everyday worries, happy holidays, family celebrations, work and leisure time - all this has been preserved and passed through the centuries, reminding you of the history of the family. The estate, in the original sense of the word, is a small homeland of a person, where several generations of his ancestors lived. Nowadays, this concept is almost lost. We live in city apartments, being citizens in the second or third generation, we leave the city for a personal plot, which most often can hardly be called a family homestead. If Europeans can proudly tell you about the history of their kind, walk you through the halls of the family estate where solemn receptions were held, then we can tell you more about the pedigree of a pet than about our own. That's the way it is in our country. But more and more often, modern people come to understand what the history of a kind means to them. The construction of a "family nest" is the first step towards restoring the former role of a family estate, preserving and respecting the history of one's ancestors.

Today, a "family nest" can be called a fairly large land plot with various outbuildings, a master's house, and a place to relax. Of course, life in the modern "family nest" is different from what was available to our ancestors. Modern suburban villages are built with a well-thought-out infrastructure, their inhabitants have access to all the benefits of civilization, but one thing remains unchanged - life in harmony with nature and with oneself. Endless expanses, green or snow-covered fields, natural reservoirs, horseback riding and boating do not cease to be in demand.

It is worth pronouncing the phrase "Russian estate" - and the existing image rises before your eyes: a forged fence lattice, a stone collapsed entrance arch, overgrown alleys, empty park pavilions and gazebos, a manor house, in which, it seems, you can still hear the steps and whispers of the former inhabitants.

Russian estate is a treasure of Russian culture. Today, in the 21st century, we can say that the Russian estate is being revived: many families choose interiors for a country house or city apartment in the traditions that were formed back in the days of Tsarist Russia.

1. Introduction

The era of urbanization is passing - people are tired of living among dust, asphalt and exhaust gases. People want to break free, they want the real, pure and natural. And thanks to the high level of progress, life in the bosom of nature and the modern level of comfort are now quite compatible concepts. Moving out of town, we remember how our ancestors lived and apply their experience in a new life.

The history of the Russian estate spans almost six centuries. Even in the period of ancient Russia in any village there was a house of the "owner" that stood out among others - the prototype of a local estate. The word "estate" comes from the Russian verb "sit down", and, as a phenomenon, the estate took root on Russian soil because, according to researchers, it invariably remained for the owner a corner of the world, mastered and equipped for himself.

In other words, the estate became a place where a person decided to settle down, live at home, take root. A family homestead is not just a country house and the land adjacent to it, but also a spiritual territory where a variety of events in the life of your family are collected and captured. Everyday worries, happy holidays, family celebrations, work and leisure time - all this has been preserved and passed through the centuries, reminding you of the history of the family. The estate, in the original sense of the word, is a small homeland of a person, where several generations of his ancestors lived. Nowadays, this concept is almost lost. We live in city apartments, being citizens in the second or third generation, we leave the city for a personal plot, which most often can hardly be called a family homestead. If Europeans can proudly tell you about the history of their kind, walk you through the halls of the family estate where solemn receptions were held, then we can tell you more about the pedigree of a pet than about our own. That's the way it is in our country. But more and more often, modern people come to understand what the history of a kind means to them. The construction of a "family nest" is the first step towards restoring the former role of a family estate, preserving and respecting the history of one's ancestors.

Today, a "family nest" can be called a fairly large land plot with various outbuildings, a master's house, and a place to relax. Of course, life in the modern "family nest" is different from what was available to our ancestors. Modern suburban villages are built with a well-thought-out infrastructure, their inhabitants have access to all the benefits of civilization, but one thing remains unchanged - life in harmony with nature and with oneself. Endless expanses, green or snow-covered fields, natural reservoirs, horseback riding and boating do not cease to be in demand.

It is worth pronouncing the phrase "Russian estate" - and the existing image rises before your eyes: a forged fence lattice, a stone collapsed entrance arch, overgrown alleys, empty park pavilions and gazebos, a manor house, in which, it seems, you can still hear the steps and whispers of the former inhabitants.

Russian estate is a treasure of Russian culture. Today, in the 21st century, we can say that the Russian estate is being revived: many families choose interiors for a country house or city apartment in the traditions that were formed back in the days of Tsarist Russia.

Relevance of the research topic.The choice of theme is due to the importance of the estate in the culture of Russia. For many centuries, the estate has been the main component of the national socio-cultural reality. The peculiar historical prerequisites for the emergence and development of the Russian estate made it a pronounced national phenomenon. The study of the estate from a cultural point of view is now the most relevant, since it is caused by the growing processes of the formation of national identity in connection with the changing idea of ​​the place and role of Russia in the universal cultural development.

The new principles of our country's presence in the world community require respect not only for foreign national cultures, but, first of all, for our own. The currently growing growth of Russian national identity causes the need to restore historical and cultural memory. The traditions of the national culture are uninterrupted, as they are the fruit of the joint efforts of many generations. Modernity is unthinkable without a "secular building of culture", without awareness of the previous moral, spiritual, intellectual experience, without respect for the fund of enduring values ​​accumulated by our people.

The Russian estate is a phenomenon that to a large extent determined the features of Russian culture, its historical life and spiritual content. The estate is interpreted as a kind of sign of Russia, a symbol of Russian culture. Invariably, its presence in the visual arts, literature, music.

Object of studyis a Russian estate and its inhabitants.

Target work is the study of the Russian estate, consideration of its role and place in the national culture, to see the lifestyle of the inhabitants of the Russian estate.

Tasks:

Highlight the historical stages of the life of the estate;

Study the way of life of the inhabitants of the estate

main working hypothesis The research can be formulated as follows: consideration of the Russian estate as a socio-cultural phenomenon in its historical development will clarify the understanding of the national characteristics of Russian culture in general, enrich the modern understanding of the originality of its traditions and their role in the formation of national identity today.

Scientific novelty The presented study lies in the fact that the Russian estates are considered in the methodology of a comprehensive cultural analysis. This approach makes it possible to reveal the features of this phenomenon as a unique historical and cultural complex, one of the most significant phenomena of national culture. The study also proposes the principles of classification and grounds for the typology of the Russian estate in the political, economic, socio-psychological, spiritual, artistic and aesthetic life of Russia.

Theoretical significanceresearch lies in the novelty and reliability of the results, which represent a significant contribution to research on this issue.

Practical significanceThe work consists in the relevance of developing history lessons dedicated to the culture of Russia, where the problems of the Russian estate should take a significant place. The research material can also be used in special courses and extracurricular activities with schoolchildren.

2. The history of the Russian estate and the way of life of its inhabitants

A manor in Russian architecture is a separate settlement, a complex of residential, utility, park and other buildings, as well as, as a rule, a manor park that make up a single whole. The term "estate" refers to the possessions of Russian nobles and wealthy representatives of other classes, dating back to the 17th - early 20th centuries.

The first mention of the estate in documents dates back to 1536. In a separate book in June 1536, the division of the patrimony of the princes Obolensky between relatives in the Bezhetsky district was recorded. From the text it turns out that there was an estate near the village of Dgino.

The following main categories are distinguished, which have a number of features that affect the appearance of Russian estates:

  • boyar estates of the 17th century;
  • landowners' estates of the 18th-19th centuries;
  • city ​​estates of the XVIII-XIX centuries;
  • peasant estates.

The classic manor estate usually included a manor house, several outbuildings, a stable, a greenhouse, buildings for servants, etc. The park adjacent to the manor most often had a landscape character, ponds were often arranged, alleys were laid, gazebos, grottoes, etc. Churches were often built in large estates.

Urban noble estates, typical for Moscow, to a lesser extent for St. Petersburg, provincial cities, as a rule, included a master's house, "services" (stables, sheds, servants' quarters), a small garden.

Many Russian estates were built according to the original designs of well-known architects, while at the same time, a large part was built according to "standard" projects. The estates that belonged to famous collectors often concentrated significant cultural values, collections of works of fine and decorative art.

A number of estates that belonged to well-known patrons of the arts gained fame as important centers of cultural life (for example, Abramtsevo, Talashkino). Other estates became famous due to famous owners (Tarkhany, Boldino).

After the October Revolution of 1917, almost all Russian noble estates were abandoned by their owners, most of them were plundered and further desolated. In a number of prominent estates during the years of Soviet power, museums were created (Arkhangelskoye, Kuskovo, Ostankino - in the Moscow region and Moscow), including memorial ones ("Yasnaya Polyana" in the Tula region, "Karabikha" near Yaroslavl, etc.).

According to the National Fund "Revival of the Russian Manor", in 2007 in Russia there were about 7 thousand estates that are monuments of history and architecture, and about two thirds of them are in a ruined state.

The estate was born from the aspirations inherent in man to equip the world around him, to bring it closer to a speculative ideal. For a nobleman, the estate has always been a "shelter of tranquility, work and inspiration", in which one could hide from everyday hardships. The estate plunged into the world of simple human joys, into the cycle of household chores and entertainment associated with construction, gardening, theater, hunting and receiving guests. In the bosom of nature, in peace and quiet, many values ​​acquired their true meaning. Under the shadow of the muses, poems were written, romances were composed, paintings were created. Today in the estate coexisted with the past, the memory of which lived in the portraits of the family galleries, in the monuments of the park and the "father's coffins" of the tombs.

Noble estate of the XVIII century. was formed and evolved in line with its contemporary advanced ideological, aesthetic and artistic trends of domestic and European culture, accumulated in itself the spiritual, artistic and material culture of modern society.

Manor estates during the XVIII century. served as a place for the life of their inhabitants, here they were born, brought up, for most of them the whole life passed here, the life of more than one generation. Wealthy landlords left their "family nests" only for the winter or for the period of service and study. For large aristocratic landowners, estates were official front residences, an administrative and economic center with its own bureaucratic apparatus, a huge “staff” of courtyard people headed by a clerk, with an office through which “decrees” and instructions were sent. The estates occupied large territories due to the land assigned to them, forests, fields, and peasant villages. In his estate, the owner acted as a monarch, and his serfs were subjects. Their richly decorated manor houses resembled palaces. The arrival of the landowner was greeted with bells and bread and salt.

One of the most significant consequences of Peter's reforms was a change in morals and customs. But the seeds of European culture on Russian soil, which the tsar-reformer planted so indomitably, gave bizarre and not always successful shoots. Weaning from their traditional way of life, someone else's assimilated superficially, consumerism. From the achievements of Western culture, they borrowed, first of all, what made life pleasant and comfortable.

Noble estate of the XVIII century. was formed and evolved in line with its contemporary advanced ideological, aesthetic and artistic trends of domestic and European culture, accumulated in itself the spiritual, artistic and material culture of modern society. The closest prototypes for a large aristocratic estate were the royal country residences near St. Petersburg. And those, in turn, served as role models for provincial estates. The culture of the noble estate has created excellent examples of architectural and landscape gardening ensembles, fine arts, music and theater.

When designing the estate ensemble of the last third of the 18th century. a special place was given to the surrounding landscape, emphasizing the dignity and expressiveness of the natural landscape, terrain, green areas, reservoirs. The latter were given the configuration of natural lakes. The shortcomings of the territory were filled with artificial methods, achieving the plausibility of the authenticity of nature, untouched by man.

Since the 1760s, after the abolition of the obligatory service of the nobility, the rural estate began to flourish. Changes in the appearance of the estate did not become noticeable immediately. The usual, traditional way of life was violated by far from all owners. The share of manor settlements by counties by the 1780s dropped. The proportion of estates without manor houses also increased. Perhaps this was due to the movement of some of the nobles to the cities, to new county institutions. As before, manor houses were mostly wooden. As in the first half of the century, the bulk of the nobles in the counties owned one estate. It is indicative that the number of manor estates without peasant households has sharply decreased. Wealthy landlords still held a strong position in the estate economy in such sectors as animal husbandry, poultry farming, horticulture, and fish farming. Greenhouses became a characteristic feature of many estates. Judging by the developed estate economy, the number of courtyard people did not decrease, and among them the number of those who mastered rare craft specialties (carpenters, carvers, locksmiths, etc.), which were necessary for the improvement of manor houses, increased.

Back in the 40s of the 18th century, during the reign of Empress Anna Ioannovna, the princely house in Arkhangelsk consisted of only three rooms, in fact - separate log cabins connected by a passage. The interiors of this dwelling were also unpretentious: in the red corner of the icon with an inextinguishable lamp, along the walls of the bench, a tiled stove, an oak table, four leather chairs, a spruce bed “in mottled and embroidered pillowcases.” A bathhouse, outbuildings - glaciers, a barn, a kitchen fit in a yard fenced with a low lattice fence. The main attraction of the estate was the stone church of the Archangel Michael.

The majestic palaces of nobles were usually built on elevated places, on the picturesque banks of rivers or lakes, dominating the area and helping their owners to enter into the image of a sovereign ruler. This fun was extremely common among the nobility. To have one's own court, one's own ladies-in-waiting, chamberlains and ladies of state, chamber marshals and equestrians seemed prestigious;

Balls were held on solemn days. In the estate of the nobleman Prince Golitsyn, for example, according to an eyewitness, it happened like this: “Invited people gathered in a brightly lit hall, and when all the guests were assembled, the prince’s own orchestra played a solemn march, and to the sounds of it the prince went out into the hall, leaning on shoulder of his chamberlain. The ball opened with a polonaise, and the host walked with his lady of state, who first kissed his hand ... "

The rich and noble landlords, or those who wished others to think so of them, tried to build a vast stone house, surrounding it with many stone outbuildings, outbuildings, colonnades, greenhouses and greenhouses. The house was surrounded by a garden with ponds and a park, regular or landscape, depending on the tastes of the owner. Statues in antique style were white among the trees, and often monuments. The estate world was created very carefully and in detail. In a good homestead, nothing should be thought out. Everything is significant, everything is an allegory, everything is "read" by those initiated into the manor sacrament. The yellow color of the manor house showed the wealth of the owner. The roof was supported by white (symbol of light) columns. The gray color of the outbuildings is a remoteness from active life. And red in unplastered outbuildings is, on the contrary, the color of life and activity. And all this was drowned in the greenery of gardens and parks - a symbol of hope. Swamps, cemeteries, ravines, hills - everything was slightly corrected, corrected and called Nezvanki. Becoming significant in the estate symbolism. Naturally, this ideal world was necessarily, although often purely symbolic, fenced off from the outside world with walls, bars, towers, artificial ditches - ravines and ponds.

Every tree, every plant means something in the overall harmony. White birch trunks, reminiscent of white column trunks, serve as a stable image of the homeland. Linden trees in the driveways during the spring flowering hinted at the heavenly ether with their fragrance. Acacia was planted as a symbol of the immortality of the soul. For the oak, perceived as strength, eternity, virtue, special clearings were arranged. Ivy, as a sign of immortality, wrapped around the trees in the park. And the reeds near the water symbolized solitude. Even the grass was seen as mortal flesh, withering and resurrecting. It is characteristic that aspen, as a "cursed tree", is practically not found in noble estates.

The size of the manor house and the luxury that surrounded it depended on the state of the landowner, and it could be formed in different ways. One of the sources of means for the existence of a "noble" person was the service, or rather, the abuse of it, simply speaking - theft. Almost everyone sinned with this, only on a different scale, from the district attorney to the governor-general and the minister.

The more comfortable the house was, or the more its owner wished to have the glory of a good owner, the more strictly the inner life of that little world that included the population of the master's estate was regulated. Detailed instructions defined the duties of each servant and a list of penalties for failure or improper performance of them. In one of these instructions, compiled by the Moscow gentleman Lunin, we read that the duty waiter “without reminding himself should often send the boys to remove them cleanly and tidy from the candles; it will be exacted if the candle is not placed directly in the chandelier, or it staggers ... ”After dinner, the duty waiter and footman had to extinguish the candles and take them to the buffet, where all the cinders were carefully dismantled, of which the smallest ones were then given for pouring into new candles, and large cinders were ordered to be used in the back chambers.

Life in the estate was clearly divided into front and everyday life. The men's study was the intellectual and economic center of the estate's everyday life. However, they furnished it almost always very modestly. "The study, placed next to the sideboard (buffet room), was inferior to him in size and, despite its seclusion, seemed still too spacious for the owner's scientific studies and the repository of his books," wrote F. F. Vigel. Throughout the 18th century, when intellectual and moral work became the duty of every nobleman, the owner's study belonged to almost the most unofficial rooms of the estate. Here everything was designed for solitary work. Accordingly, the office was furnished. The "Golan" or "English" cabinet was considered fashionable. Almost all of its furnishings were ascetic oak furniture, with very discreet upholstery, and a modest table clock. The desks didn't complain. Preference was given to secretaries, desks, bureaus.

The master's study, unlike the mistress's quarters, was almost undecorated and rather modestly decorated. Only an exquisite decanter and a glass for "morning consumption" of cherry or anise were considered indispensable (it was believed that this contributes to the prevention of "angina pectoris" and "stroke" - the most fashionable diseases of the 18th - early 19th centuries) and a smoking pipe. Smoking at the turn of the century became a whole symbolic ritual. In the living room and in the hall, no one ever smoked even without guests in his family, so that, God forbid, somehow this smell would not remain and that the furniture would not stink. Smoking began to spread in a noticeable way after 1812.

It was here, in the office of the owner of the estate, that managers reported, letters and orders were written, dues were calculated, neighbors were simply accepted, projects of estate architects were discussed.

Since the men's office is designed for work, books played the main role in its interior. Some of the books were necessary for successful farming. In quiet estate offices, a fashion for reading was formed. If the men's study was the private center of the estate, then the living room or hall served as its front face. Such a division into home and guest, everyday and festive was characteristic of the entire noble era. One of the consequences of such a division of the entire life of the nobility was the differentiation of manor interiors into "ceremonial apartments" and "rooms for the family." In wealthy estates, the living room and the hall served different purposes, but in most houses they were perfectly combined.

Contemporaries, of course, perceived the hall or living room as a front door, and therefore officially - a cold apartment. The hall, large, empty and cold, with two or three windows to the street and four to the courtyard, with rows of chairs along the walls, with lamps on high legs and candelabra in the corners, with a large piano against the wall; dancing, ceremonial dinners and a place for playing cards were her appointments. Then the living room, also with three windows, with the same sofa and a round table in the back and a large mirror above the sofa. On the sides of the sofa there are armchairs, chaise longue tables, and between the windows there are tables with narrow wall-length mirrors. The ceiling of the hall was certainly decorated with a magnificent ceiling, and the floor with parquet inserts with a special pattern. The solemnity of the front hall was given by the carved gilded wood of the walls and furniture. Cold - white, blue, greenish tones throughout the living room were only slightly supported by gold and ocher. The center of the hall almost always turned out to be a large ceremonial portrait of the current reigning person in an indispensable gilded frame. It was placed deliberately symmetrically along the main axis of the living room and was given the same honors as the sovereigns themselves. At the beginning of the 19th century, living rooms "warm up". Now they are already painted in pinkish or ocher warm colors. Lush gilded furniture is replaced by more austere mahogany. Needlework is transferred here from ladies' offices. And in the previously cold fireplaces, a fire is lit every evening, fenced off from the hall by embroidered fireplace screens.

And the purpose of living rooms is changing. Now family holidays are held here, quiet. Often households gather for family reading. The whole family sat in a circle in the evenings, someone else read, others listened: especially ladies and girls.

At the very end of the 18th century, a women's office appeared in the manor house. This was demanded by the sentimental age, with its images of a tender wife and a businesslike hostess. Now, having received an education, the woman herself formed the spiritual image not only of her children, but also of the yard people entrusted to her care. The day of a noblewoman, especially in a rural estate, was filled to the brim with worries. Her morning began in a secluded office, where they went for an order with a report, for money, with a daily menu.

However, over the course of the day, the functions of the women's office change. Business is always morning. And during the day, and especially in the evening, the hostess's office turns into a kind of salon. The very concept of a salon, where performers and audience change each other, where conversations are held about everything and nothing, where celebrities are invited, was formed at the end of the 18th century.

In her manor office, the hostess received the closest relatives, friends, and neighbors. Here she read, drew, did needlework. Here she carried on extensive correspondence. Therefore, the women's office has always been distinguished by special comfort and warmth. The walls were painted in light colors, covered with wallpaper. Floral decor, the same floral painting covered the ceiling. The floor was no longer made of bright type-setting parquet, but was covered with a colored carpet. Fireplace warmth was added to the warmth of communication in the women's office. Furnaces and fireplaces here were richly decorated with faience tiles with reliefs on the themes of ancient mythology.

But the main role in the women's office was undoubtedly played by artistic furniture. The walls between the windows were occupied by large mirrors resting on elegant tables. They reflected portraits of watercolors, embroidery. The furniture itself was now made of Karelian birch. Small round tables and small tables - bobbins, armchairs and bureaus allowed the hostess of the office to build the necessary comfort herself. At the same time, they tried to divide the single space of the office into several cozy corners, each of which had its own purpose.

The dining room occupied a special place of honor among the front chambers of the estate. At the same time, a dining room and the necessary daily space. It was here that the family felt unity. After the dining room becomes on a par with the most ceremonial premises of the noble estate, they begin to decorate it in a special way. The walls of this bright hall were not usually decorated with tapestries or fashionable silk fabrics - they absorb odors. But murals and oil paintings were widely used. In addition to still lifes, natural in the dining room, paintings on historical themes or family portraits were often placed here, which further emphasized the splendor of the room. In estates where several generations have changed, canteens often became a place to store family heirlooms. Sometimes the same placed entire collections.

But the furniture in the dining rooms tried to put as little as possible - only what is needed. The chairs were, as a rule, very simple, since the main requirement for them was convenience - dinners sometimes lasted quite a long time. Tables could never stand at all. They were often made sliding and taken out only during dinner, depending on the number of guests. However, in the middle of the 19th century, a huge table already occupied almost the entire space of the dining room.

Mandatory in the dining rooms of the 18th century are buffets - slides, on which various objects made of porcelain and glass were displayed. Small console tables attached to the wall served the same purpose. With the accumulation of family collections, such sideboards and tables were replaced by large glazed cabinets, which housed collectibles.

A special place in Russian canteens of the 18th - 19th centuries belonged to porcelain. Not a single estate was conceived without him. He performed not so much a household as a representative function - he spoke about the wealth and taste of the owner. Therefore, good porcelain was specially mined and collected. Specially made to order china services were rare even in very rich houses and therefore the entire set of dishes was assembled literally from individual items. And only by the end of the 18th century, porcelain sets firmly took their place on the dining tables of the Russian nobility.

Metal utensils were practically not used in estates; they were gold or silver. At the same time, if gold dishes spoke to the guests about the wealth of the owner, then porcelain - about refined tastes. In poorer houses, pewter and majolica played the same representative role.

In the 18th century, several bedrooms appeared in the estates. The front bedrooms - living rooms have never been used. These were purely executive rooms. During the day they rested in "everyday bedchambers". At night they slept in private bedrooms, which were located in the private chambers of the owner, hostess and their children.

Here, in the bedroom, the day of the owners of the estate began and ended. According to Orthodox tradition, going to bed was always preceded by evening prayer. In the bedroom, there were icons especially revered in the family. Most often these were icons with the image of the Mother of God. The piety of the owners was expressed in the rich decoration of the icons. For them, they ordered expensive silver and gold salaries, trimmed with chasing, engraving, and stones. Particularly expensive icons were preferred to be personally decorated with embroidered beads or freshwater pearls (oklad). Often among the serf estate masters there were their own icon painters. And the landowner, as a rule, supported the local church and all its ministers at his own expense.

Numerous draperies made of expensive fabrics served as a natural decoration for the manor bedrooms. From the same fabrics were made lush curtains for windows, canopies over the bed, decorated with bouquets of feathers ("feather bouquets"). Upholstered seating furniture was upholstered with the same fabric, thus creating a suite.

And yet, the life and dwellings of most nobles remained forcedly modest and unassuming. In contrast to the noble estate that grew on an elevated bank and dominated the district, the house of a poor landowner huddled in a hollow to protect himself from winds and cold. The walls were dilapidated, the window frames were cracked, the windows were cracked. Many estates retained such a wretched appearance for almost a century and a half, not changing for all the time from the second quarter of the 18th century to the middle of the 19th century. The reason was, of course, poverty, which the owners could not overcome even by the merciless exploitation of the labor of serfs.

An example of the estate of that time is the estate of the famous memoirist Andrey Bolotov in the 50s of the 18th century. A one-story house without a foundation, almost up to the smallest windows, has grown into the ground. Of the three rooms, the largest, the hall, was unheated and therefore almost uninhabited. From the furniture in it there were benches along the walls, and a table covered with a carpet. Other rooms were residential. Huge stoves heated up so hot in winter that with a lack of fresh air (there were no vents and windows were not opened), fainting occurred with the inhabitants. They woke up from fainting, and drowned again, following the rule that "the heat of the bones does not break." The right corner is lined with icons, furniture - chairs and a bed. The second room is quite small in size, it simultaneously served as a nursery, and a lackey, and a girl's, depending on the need and circumstances.

Almost a hundred years have passed, and this is how an ordinary noble estate of the middle of the 19th century appears in the description of contemporaries: the landowner's house is divided by simple partitions into several small rooms, and, as a rule, a large family lives in such four or five "cells", which includes not only only a few children, but also all sorts of hosts and certainly distant poor relatives, among whom there were unmarried sisters of the owner or elderly aunts, and in addition - governesses, nannies, maids and wet nurses.

In the estate of the "middle hand" there were one hundred, two hundred or more peasant households, in which lived from several hundred to 1-2 thousand serfs. The owner's house was located at a small distance from the village, sometimes near the church. It was spacious, but most often wooden, two-story and certainly with a "hall" - for receiving guests and dancing. The yard, as in the old days, was occupied by outbuildings: a kitchen, people's huts, barns, a carriage house, a stable. In some estates, a new house was built without demolishing the old one. It was intended for the family of the eldest son or for the owner's wife, who for some reason did not want to live under the same roof with her husband.

The new house, unlike the old one, in which the spirit of the old time was preserved for decades, was more willingly decorated with elegant furniture, mirrors, and paintings. An important place among the paintings in the noble estate was occupied by family portraits.

Behind everyone, in the very last and distant ranks of the Russian nobility, was its most numerous part - the small estates. The ideas that prevailed in society also did not allow them to lag behind their more affluent brethren. The fragmentation of estates between heirs led to the emergence of an increasing number of small estates. From the beginning of the 19th century, after the transfer of state peasants into the ownership of the nobility ceased under Alexander I, the reduction of estates became especially noticeable.

Over time, the grinding reached an extreme degree, and then the landowner's house could no longer be distinguished from the peasant's dwelling, and the landowner himself from his serf. However, already at the beginning of the 19th century, there turned out to be a considerable number of placeless and “soulless” nobles who did not have a single peasant or householder at all and independently cultivated their land plots. There were especially many small estate owners in the Ryazan province. There they even received a special nickname "noblewomen". Such "noblewomen" sometimes inhabited entire villages, their houses stood interspersed with peasant huts, and the size of the land plots they owned was so small that they could not even feed the "noble" family itself, often very numerous. There was no time for hospitality or visiting guests here. The usual dwelling of small-scale nobles was a tiny dilapidated building of two rooms separated by a vestibule, with an attached kitchen. But there were two halves in the house - to the right of the entrance "master's", to the left - human, and thus, here, among poverty and squalor, the estate spirit was preserved, separating masters and slaves.

Each of these halves, in turn, was divided by partitions. In the servants' quarters there were beds for sleeping, spinning wheels, and hand millstones along the walls. From furniture - a rough table, benches or several chairs, chests, buckets and other things that are necessary in the household. Baskets with eggs were usually kept under the benches, and dogs, poultry, calves, cats and other living creatures wandered or ran around the room.

The master's half was cleaner, tidier, furnished with furniture, albeit old, fairly shabby, but "remembering" better times. Otherwise, the room differed little from the peasant dwelling. But one of the characteristic signs of small-scale life was the same, inherent in the richer nobles, the large number of all kinds of accustomers and freeloaders, who huddled together with the owners in their extremely modest house. In circumstances of need, merging with real poverty, relatives lived in cramped quarters and often half-starving, who had absolutely no one to go to for help and nowhere to look for a piece of bread, except in this wretched "family nest". Here you could also meet "unmarried nieces, the elderly sister of the owner or mistress, or an uncle - a retired cornet who squandered his fortune."

In such a close and poor cohabitation, quarrels and endless mutual reproaches arose. The owners found fault with the freeloaders, who, not remaining in debt, recalled the long-standing good deeds rendered by their fathers to the current breadwinners. They scolded rudely and “in the most public way”, put up and quarreled again, and diversified the hours of the truce with gossip or playing cards.

Culture of the noble estate of the XVIII century. occupies an important place in the history of the national culture of this period, remaining for us to this day a "fairy tale". As a result of studying the estates, we become richer: “a new streak of Russian culture has opened, interesting and important not only for the perfection of its material creations, but also for its thoughts, its poetry and philosophy, its beliefs and tastes.”

3.Conclusion

As the study showed, the Russian estate has been one of the main components of Russian culture for many centuries. The estate reflected not only the spiritual and aesthetic ideals of its time, but also the individual character traits of the owner, combining the general and the special. At the same time, the estates were both the keepers of patriarchal traditions and the place for the embodiment of the most daring undertakings.

Each of the types of Russian estate was a system, a dynamic integrity, reflecting one's own attitude to the world and understanding of the connection with it and the role of man in it. Determining the place of the Russian estate in the socio-cultural context from historical and typological positions is necessary for understanding the genesis of Russian culture in general and regional culture in particular.

The following general conclusions can be drawn:

1. The estate is an organic and integral phenomenon of Russian culture, the emergence of which is caused by essential sociocultural needs and is conditioned by all the previous historical and cultural development of the country.

One of the main features that determined the "longevity" of the estate is its rootedness in Russian culture.

2. Manor construction was based on the assertion of the freedom of the landowner-nobleman, the theory of "life arrangement". The estate acted as a peculiar way of expressing the creative and aesthetic energy of the Russian nobility. In each individual estate, its own ideal model of reality was built. Monologuery was one of the most important characteristics of the Russian estate, which determined its originality and uniqueness.

The presence of borders with the external environment was a necessary condition for the preservation of an artificially created idyllic "estate paradise". At the same time, the estate itself was in complex and contradictory relations with the capitals, with the county town, with neighboring estates, with the peasant world. Focused on the culture of the capital, the estate has always been the opposition to statehood, existing at the same time as a phenomenon of provincial culture.

The manor became the main component of the landscape, often changing the natural environment and occupying the most aesthetically advantageous place.

The national identity of Russian manor gardens and parks consisted in their greater openness, in an organic combination of intimacy and spatial connection with the environment. The national landscape still keeps traces of the manor's transformation of nature.

The Russian estate has always been and was considered by its inhabitants as a "family nest" of the Russian nobility. Its atmosphere was supported by portrait galleries illustrating the "family genealogical tree"; talking about the merits of ancestors; manor churches, usually serving as family tombs.

The main principle of estate life - understanding of life as creativity - found different forms of expression. The active nature of the owner of the estate was a means of achieving harmonization of both his personality and the whole life in the estate. In this regard, economic improvements and intellectual pursuits, artistic dilettantism and various farmstead amusements equally belonged to useful activity.

3. In the estate, noble and peasant cultures were inextricably linked, as well as church culture, which was synthetic in its essence.

Manor art united plastic and spectacular views; professional, amateur and folk forms. The manor theater was the most democratic both in terms of the composition of the performers and the choice of repertoire.

Picture galleries in estates served as one of the forms of conscious introduction of elements of Western European artistic life into Russian culture. At the same time, the estate was both a collection of artistic values ​​and a center of artistic creativity.

In the second half of the 19th century, the Russian estate turned from the subject of artistic activity into its object. First of all, literature and painting became the expression of nostalgic longing for the estate life.

The estate is constantly present in the national cultural and artistic memory, being one of the most important culture-forming factors.

The estate was an organic and integral phenomenon of Russian culture, which reflected the living way of life in Russia. Now the estate occupies an important place in the national cultural heritage. The study of this socio-cultural phenomenon in the historical stages of its development allows one to penetrate deeper into the spiritual foundations and originality of the national culture, contributing to the acquisition of national identity, dignity and historical and cultural memory, as well as clarifying and concretizing the idea of ​​the realities of national culture. Being a fact of national culture, the Russian estate belongs to the fund of universal values.

Rybalko D. M. (Tula), researcher at the House-Museum of V. V. Veresaev / 2011

“It seems to me: our life is the same sacred forest. We enter it so-so to have fun, to have fun. And everything lives around, everything feels deeply and strongly ... Yes, you need to enter life not as a cheerful reveler, as into a pleasant grove, but with reverent awe, as into a sacred forest, full of life and mystery.

V. V. Veresaev

Following the thoughts of the writer, we will try to reconstruct the speculative historical and literary image of the old noble city estate of the second half of the 19th century, the Smidovich estate in Tula on the street. Verkhne-Dvoryanskaya (now Gogolevskaya St., 82, House-Museum of V.V. Veresaev). After all, the writer, doctor, Pushkinist, translator V.V. Veresaev, who grew up on the same soil with his parents’ garden, absorbed such a reverent attitude to life here: “Until the age of seventeen continuously, and then for many years in the summer I lived in Tula and the Tula province and , of course, was thoroughly saturated with Tula nature. Wherever I portrayed a provincial town (“Without a road”, “On the turn”, “To life”) Tula served me as a material.

Both the accumulated materials from the State Archive of the Tula Region and literary sources will help us to reveal the historical and literary image of the estate: the works and memoirs of the writer himself, which are no less reliable due to the realistic style of writing, very characteristic of V.V. Veresaev.

So, we have a number of documents on the history of the Smidovich estate in Tula: a) the bill of sale fortress of the wife of the doctor E.P. Verkhne-Dvoryanskaya dated April 28, 1867; b) V. I. Smidovich’s petition for the sale of part of the estate located under the garden to his wife, Ms. Smidovich, in order to round off her estate on Verkhne-Dvoryanskaya Street. June 3, 1874; c) the petition of the widow of the court councilor E. P. Smidovich for the construction of a wooden staircase on the 2nd floor of her house dated February 19, 1898. These documents are accompanied by a drawing of the estate with all the buildings - this is a one-story wooden house where the Smidovich family lived; a two-story wooden house that was rented out; sheds and sheds. The borders of the estate and the names of the neighbors are indicated, which shows that the Smidovichi estate has the form of a regular rectangle with sides of 41 and 26 sazhens, with a total area of ​​4785 square meters. m. In addition, a description of the estate, or rather the meteorological site on it, can be found in the book by V. I. Smidovich “Meteorological observations in the city of Tula for 1877”, as well as by studying the photographic material and the plan of the house compiled by Veresaev.

These undoubtedly important historical facts that formed the basis for the creation of the museum, by themselves, would never be able to convey the former splendor of estate life, unlike a living writer's word: “... Dad had his own house on Verkhne-Dvoryanskaya Street, and I was born in it. It was a small house with four rooms, with a huge garden... At first, the garden, like all the neighboring ones, was almost entirely fruit, but my father gradually planted it with barren trees, and already in my memory there were apple trees, pears and cherries only here and there . Strong maples and ash trees kept growing and spreading, the birches of the big avenue rose more and more high, thickets of lilacs and yellow acacia along the fences became thicker and thicker. Every bush in the garden, every tree was intimately familiar to us... And there were the most excellent places for games: under my father's balcony, for example, a dark, low room where you had to walk bending over... A lot of villainy was committed in this dungeon, a lot of robber gangs hid , a lot of torment experienced by the captives ... "

This excerpt from the memoirs of V. V. Veresaev clearly shows how spiritually important a literary source is for us, which draws its authentic reality, reveals the inner world of the estate, and the state of mind of its inhabitants, which historical materials alone cannot convey to an ordinary reader, not a specialist . For us, such a source is “Memoirs” by V. V. Veresaev and a number of his works, where not only the image of the estates native to the writer is visible, but also the realities of estate Russia are traced. In the story “Without a Road”, thanks to which Veresaev became famous in Russia, the events unfold in the vicinity of an old noble estate in the village of Kasatkino (the prototype is an estate in the village of Zybin, where the writer stayed every summer), then in Slesarsk (Tula), although It is about the decline of the populist movement. In the book we will see the linden alleys of the Zybinsk garden, a large manor house with columns along the facade, the Vashan River, picturesque surroundings. But the image of the estate in the works of Veresaev is often collective, formed from the aromas of the Tula garden and shady ash vaults along the city outskirts, the latitudes of the suburban Vladychnia and Zybin.

In addition, a literary source can often either confirm or refute archival evidence. In addition, it contains a lot of factual material. So, for example, having only one plan of the Smidovichi estate, we would never have been able to get a complete picture of it. But now, comparing the documents and the writer's memoirs, we learn that the garden was a park type, mostly maple, lovingly planned and planted by the writer's father Vikenty Ignatievich Smidovich, the shape of a regular quadrangle, large enough for a city estate. In addition to maples, ash, linden, spruce and many shrubs grew in it: elderberry, wild rose, roses, mock orange jasmine. When examining the garden in 1993, 13 trees planted by V. I. Smidovich were identified at the age of 100-130 years, and traces of gravel, balsam, and forget-me-nots were found in the soil. The decoration of the garden was a bush of white rhododendron, which was removed to the greenhouse for the winter. We learn about this again from the memoirs: “When I was still very young, my father was very fond of gardening ... There were greenhouses, there was a small greenhouse. I vaguely remember its warm, steamy air, patterned palm leaves, a wall and ceiling made of dusty glass, mounds of loose, very black earth on the tables, rows of pots with planted cuttings. And I still remember the sonorous, firmly imprinted word "rhododendron" in my memory.

In front of the garden there was a large flower garden, where the rarest flowers grew, which Vikenty Ignatievich lovingly looked after. How much my father valued his garden can be judged by the exceptional case when the future writer was flogged for the only time: “Dad called me, led me to a flower, showed it and said: “See, here is a flower? Not only don't you dare touch him, but don't even come close. If it breaks, it will be very unpleasant for me. Understood? - Understood" . The fact is that Vincent, who was a great inventor and dreamer, understood the pope in such a way that he was instructed to transplant a flower. Of course, he was very flattered by the trust placed in him and made the transplant with all care, for which he was unjustly punished.

The birch alley, laid from the house to the gazebo at the end of the garden, was the main compositional and planning axis of the estate. In the far corner grew a bush of canupera, on a crooked path that went from the yard to the birch alley - Tatar maple, on a round hill - horse chestnut. Yellow acacia, white and blue lilacs grew along the fence. Old Russian varieties of apple trees grew from the fruit trees on the plot: pear, cinnamon, borovinka, antonovka, kitayka, fruits that, according to the writer's memoirs, were so tempting for children, especially on the eve of the apple holiday.

An unusual activity for a noble family was work in the garden, in which not only servants, but also all household members took part: “By the Trinity it was necessary to clean the garden: rake last year’s leaves and branches from the grass, sweep the paths, sprinkle them with sand.” But then an interesting story is revealed to us, about how mother suggested that the children let go of the old day laborer, give him money, and finish the work themselves, to which the children happily agreed: “We worked with enthusiasm for three days and cleaned the garden for the holiday ". In addition, a reasonable tradition was instituted by the mother: “Which of us really needed money, he could get mom’s work in the garden or in the yard ... Mom instructed me to clear the grass and knots from the grass and knots under the big linden tree for a nickel.” And the fight against May beetles: “Spring. The birch trees have just unfolded patterned, cheerful green leaves. May beetles with a businesslike buzzing rush around the birches, and we are bustling below, sweaty, out of breath, with eyes popping out on our foreheads ... Nothing subsequently filled me with such pride for the useful work I had done, like this fight with May beetles.

It is important to note that the external decoration of the estate and the arrangement of life in it has always been a reflection of the inner world of its inhabitants. The Smidovich family was very significant for Tula, because the writer's father, a Polish nobleman, was considered one of the best doctors, was known for his social and scientific activities aimed at improving the sanitary condition of the city, the love of the Tula working poor, whom he treated for free and in the first opened by him clinic and at home. He contributed to the construction of the first water pipeline in Tula, the opening of the largest Tula park named after. IP Belousova on the site of the former city dump and much more. He owned an interesting collection of minerals and a library on a variety of branches of knowledge. And he happily handed over his chemical laboratory, located in the basement of the house, to the City Sanitary Commission he created. He conducted systematic meteorological observations, with the help of which he left a detailed description of the features of the Tula climate, so there was a meteorological site on the estate. A description of this site, as well as the results of work on it, we can read in the book "Meteorological observations in the city of Tula for 1877".

It was a tradition in the family to arrange family readings in the evenings, a German language day once a week, children's dance evenings at Christmas time, and invite interesting people. The Smidovichi estate is still the meeting place of the Tula intelligentsia. It is no coincidence that it was here, in a house with such rich family traditions, that the mother of the writer E. P. Yunitskaya, a born teacher, opened the first kindergarten in Russia, “a perfect curiosity in Tula,” writes V. V. Veresaev. There is evidence of this in the Tula Gubernskie Vedomosti of October 25, 1872: “With the permission of the trustee of the Moscow educational district, I open on November 1 of this year on Bolshaya Dvoryanskaya Street, in my own house, a kindergarten for children from 3 to 7 years old” And the signature : Elizaveta Pavlovna.

The father cared not only for the moral and intellectual development of his children, but also, as a doctor, for physical health: “At the end of our garden there was a large platform, and on it was “gymnastics”: two tall pillars with a transverse beam; in the middle are climbing poles, a knotted rope, a trapezoid. These structures also served as decorations for children, where, as V.V. Veresaev writes, “there were various adventures of an Indian character”: “Once, after many adventures in different parts of the garden, my sister Arabella and I were captured by the Indians (I was Arthur, Julia - Arabella). The Indians tied us up... It happened in a large arbor at the end of the garden: it was a real plank house, painted green, with an iron roof, with three windows and a door... We carefully climbed out of the window and with the speed of a snake rushing for prey, they set off to run into the virgin forest.

They ran all night and day. In the evening we made a halt on the steps of my father's balcony.

I dropped my ear to the ground, ... parted the jasmine branches - and stopped in my tracks: thirty thousand red-skinned horsemen raced after us ... We ran around the ledge of the house, a black barrel with rainwater, ran along the stable wall to a large linden ... Lying down in the impenetrable bamboo thickets, near the onion beds, I hit my choice of fittings ... "

The memoirs of youth are full of not so much detailed as poetic descriptions of the estate, where you can see what a subtle palette of natural shades it endowed the soul of the future writer: “It was May, our large garden was like a bright green sea, and the white and purple foam of blooming lilacs brightened on it. Her scent filled the rooms. Sunshine, shine, joy. And there was not just joy, but a continuous feeling of it.

Recalling the estates in emigration, one of the former authors of the St. Petersburg magazine Apollon, A. Trubnikov, wrote: “The whole essence of Russian culture thickened in the noble estates; they were intellectual greenhouses in which the most beautiful flowers bloomed. Pushkin, Lermontov, Tolstoy, Turgenev, Leskov, our great writers, our best musicians and poets came out of them ... the evolution of our society after Peter was manifested not at all in the architecture of Tsarskoe Selo or the treasures collected by Catherine in the Hermitage, but in the birth of a very peculiar and like nothing else in the world of Russian estates. All of the above applies to our homestead as well.

Great writers (A. S. Pushkin in Zakharov, N. V. Gogol in the village of Vasilievka, Poltava region, M. Yu. Lermontov in Tarkhany, L. N. Tolstoy in Yasnaya Polyana) matured as individuals in the conditions of the estate universe and subsequently all their lives thought in terms of it.

The Tula estate of the Smidovichs is the source of everything: the personality and shades of the writer’s work, the beginning of his life and creative path, the prototype of artistic images, the source of the book and worldview called “living life”, rooted in childhood, in the parent garden. In contrast to I. A. Bunin with his minor perception of the estate world (the Butyrka Farm, where the writer spent his childhood, was away from the main roads in the deepest field silence), Veresaev enthusiastically, joyfully looks at life in an antique way. The author's intoxication with life, living life, nature, music - these are not fictional feelings and images in his works, but genuine ones. We can easily verify this if we read one diary entry made on July 13, 1892 in Tula during the writing of the story “Without a Road”: “Yesterday I arrived from Zybin. Great time. The rural nature alone can make me happy. I reveled in the smell of ripe rye, dewy starry nights, the air, the river. In the evenings, the music of Nadia Stavrovskaya, Beethoven. You sit on the terrace and listen through the open windows and look out into the garden... vague but strikingly beautiful images form in your head.”

All the works of the writer are saturated with the joyful mystery of the living, the open spaces of Tula endowed his soul with their colors, he thinks in terms of earthly beauty. And, perhaps, it was precisely thanks to the natural sense of harmony that V.V. Veresaev entered Russian literature as a public writer, like a tuning fork, reacting to the falsity of the surrounding reality: “And how could I have been so blind before not to see this penetrating everything? life? And as a child, I felt it. I then went up to the window at night and looked out into the garden. In the vague twilight the lilac bushes slumbered mysteriously, strangely living branches stirred against the pale background of the sky, and everything lived its own special, mysterious life. Repulsed, wandering aside, I now returned to her, to this inaccessible mind, but subjugating the soul, the bright mystery of life.

The State Museum and Exhibition Center ROSPHOTO together with the State Historical Museum present the exhibition "The Image of a Russian Manor in a Photo", demonstrating a collection of manor photography of the 1860s - 1920s from the collection of the Historical Museum. The exhibition allows trace the evolution of the estate theme in photography and identify the main directions of estate plots in Russian photography.

The estate, as the basis of the life of the nobility, economy and culture of the Russian Empire, was a vivid expression of the national genius and a place of contact between elite and folk cultures. Equivalent from a historical point of view, although not equal in artistic qualities, photographic images of the Russian estate create a diverse picture of the bygone estate culture, the poetic world of family nests and the private life of large noble and merchant families. The manor appears at the exhibition from several angles: from grand views of large estates and amateur photographs from family albums to artistic images of old parks and abandoned estates.

The exposition opens with custom-made views of estates made by masters of the largest photographic studios. The photographs, often large in size and specially designed, show winning views of the architectural complex and landscape, as well as portraits of the owners in their favorite estates. The plot of the estate views, the features of printing, and sometimes the composition were determined not only by the views of the photographer himself, but also by the wishes of the customer. Many famous estates (Ostafyevo, Arkhangelskoye, Ilyinskoye), which served as central residences for their owners, are depicted in this way. The exhibition exhibits unique examples of early estate photography of the 1860s - photographs of the Nikolskoye-Obolyaninovo estate, made by M.N. Sherer, and Nikolskoye-Prozorovskoye by M.B. Tulinov.

The second section is dedicated to amateur photography. The authors of these pictures are the owners and guests of the estates themselves. Photo distinguishes the immediacy of the plots and the liveliness of the composition. At the turn of the century, photography became an accessible form of artistic activity. Summer leisure in Russian society has traditionally been associated with the estate, so images of everyday pleasurable life on the estate have become widespread in amateur photography. The appearance of amateur photographs is not related to the aesthetic or historical value of the estate, they are born from the harmonious atmosphere of the estate life, common family activities. The subjects of the photographs are varied: genre scenes (picnics on the grass, boating, hiking), portraits of servants and guests, private rooms of the upper floor, sweet nooks and crannies of the park and its environs.

The photographs of the next section reflect the interest that arose at the beginning of the 20th century in the study and preservation of the Russian estate with its artistic and historical artifacts.

The estate is beginning to be perceived as a unique synthetic phenomenon of art and a place of ancestral memory. Photographers strive to capture the features of the architectural ensemble and the interior complex of estates. A number of masters turn to photography of architecture and genre for the purpose of photographic documentation of monuments: P. P. Pavlov, N. N. Ushakov, A. A. Ivanov-Terentyev.

At the beginning of the 20th century, the myth of the Russian estate took shape in literary and artistic form, and an idea was formed of it as a symbol of the outgoing noble culture. The author's view of the photographers was attracted by the details and landscapes, which conveyed the special passionistic mood of the estate life - the poetry of dying, the outgoing greatness. The main objects of the image - the manor nature and the park - became spiritualized, emotionally colored. The idea of ​​the estate was embodied in the iconic images of art photography: a young lady and a park alley. In some works, the artistically transformed image of the estate, as if covered with a light haze of memories, corresponds to the techniques of pictorial photography. The works of this section come from the fund of the Russian Photographic Society - the pearl of the photo collection of the Historical Museum. Photos of N. S. Krotkov, V. N. Chasovnikov, V. N. Shokhin were shown at photographic competitions and were selected by the Society to create a museum. The estate theme was also reflected in the works of the famous masters A. S. Mazurin and N. A. Petrov .

The last significant period in the development of the estate theme in artistic lighting was the 1920s. The great interest in the study of the estate heritage and the poetry of ruined nests attracted leading Soviet photo artists. At that time, having become exclusively a phenomenon of the past, the estate acquired the possibility of new interpretations. The exhibition presents photo studies of the outstanding domestic master A. D. Grinberg, who sought to create a new image of the estate. The works of the photographer embody not the beautiful “outgoing” Silver Age, but the “former”, irretrievably lost, dead past. Most of these estate photographs were shown at the famous 1928 exhibition "Soviet Photography in 10 Years". Subsequently, the disappearance of the estate culture as a living and powerful tradition led to the absence of its image in Soviet photography.

Introduction to the thesis (part of the abstract) on the topic "The image of a noble estate in Russian prose of the late XIX - early XX centuries"

The appearance in fiction of the image of a noble estate was a consequence of the decree of Catherine II (“Charter to the nobility”, 1785) on the release of the nobility from military service, after which the role and importance of noble local life in Russian culture began to strengthen. At the end of the 18th - beginning of the 19th centuries, the noble estate experienced its heyday, after which its gradual decline began, until 1917.

During the first half of the 19th century, the noble estate was included in works of art, mainly as a human habitat, a certain way of life that characterizes the owner of the estate (nobleman), his moral and spiritual foundations, way of life and culture, although already during this period the process begins symbolization of the image of a noble estate, which, in particular, finds expression in the work of A.S. Pushkin. In the second half of the 19th century, when the crisis of this way of life becomes most tangible, the noble estate declares itself as a special cultural phenomenon, which they begin to actively study, describe, and strive to preserve. In the 80-90s of the 19th century, they began to talk about estates as cultural monuments, from 1909 to 1915, the Society for the Protection and Preservation of Monuments of Art and Antiquity in Russia operated in St. Petersburg.

Estate masterpieces by S.T. Aksakov, I.S. Turgenev, I.A. Goncharov, L.N. Tolstoy were created in the literature of the second half of the 19th century. The concept of a family nest of nobles, introduced into culture by the Slavophiles (Shchukin, 1994, p. 41), is gaining more and more strength and significance, and by the end of the 19th century is perceived as one of the central symbols of Russian culture.

At the turn of the 19th - 20th centuries, writers of various views, belonging to different literary movements and associations, paid increased attention to the image of a noble estate. Among them are the names of such artists of the word as A.P. Chekhov, I.A. Bunin, B.K. Zaitsev, A.N. Tolstoy, M.A. Kuzmin, N.G. Garin-Mikhailovsky, A. Bely, F.K. Sologub, G.I. Chulkov, S.N. Sergeev-Tsensky, B.A. Sadovskoy, S.A. Auslender, P.S. Romanov

S. M. Gorodetsky and many others. As a result, a huge layer of fiction was created, where the image of a noble estate received a detailed development and multifaceted coverage.

The relevance of the study is due to the active growth of interest in the lost values ​​of national culture and attempts to revive them. Appeal to the image of a noble estate is necessary, in our opinion, to solve the problem of self-identification of Russian culture. Comprehension of the image of a noble estate as one of the fundamental symbols of Russia is a way of national self-knowledge and self-preservation and represents the possibility of restoring a vast complex of moral and aesthetic norms, largely lost in the vicissitudes of recent centuries.

The object of research in the dissertation is the image of a noble estate in Russian prose of the late XIX - early XX centuries. The subject of the dissertation is the noble estate as a phenomenon of the Russian literary process at the turn of the 19th-20th centuries. The research material consists of works of art by such writers as A.P. Chekhov, I.A. Bunin, B.K. Zaitsev, A.N. Tolstoy, M.A. Kuzmin, N.G. Garin-Mikhailovsky, D.V. .Grigorovich, A.Bely, F.K.Sologub, G.I.Chulkov, I.A.Novikov, S.N.Sergeev-Tsensky, B.A.Sadovskoy, S.A.Auslender, P.S.Romanov , I.I. Yasinsky, S.M. Gorodetsky, A.V. Amfiteatrov, M.P. Artsybashev, A.N. Budischev, V.V. Muyzhel. Prose and poetic works of other writers and poets of the 19th - first third of the 20th centuries are also used as material for comparative analysis.

The degree of knowledge of the issue. The noble estate in pre-revolutionary and modern science was and is being studied to a greater extent from the standpoint of historical and cultural studies. Since the 70s of the 19th century, as G. Zlochevsky notes, guidebooks around Moscow have appeared, which necessarily include a section on estates (for example, guidebooks by N.K. Neighborhoods of Moscow. ”(“ 2nd ed., 1880)). From 1913 to 1917, the magazine "Capital and Estate" was published (already in the title of this magazine, the opposition in Russian culture of the estate and capital worlds was reflected); publications about estates are also published in a number of other journals. Monographs devoted to the history and architecture of individual estates also appeared before the revolution. In particular, in 1912 the work of Prince. M.M. Golitsyn about the estate of Petrovskoye, Zvenigorod district, Moscow province (“Russian estates. Issue 2. Petrovsky”), in 1916 - the work of P.S. Sheremetev “Vyazemy”. Memoirs of both individual representatives of the nobility and collections, including the memoirs of a number of authors, are published. So in 1911, under the editorship of N.N. Rusov, the book "Landed Russia according to the notes of contemporaries" was published, which collected memoirs of representatives of the nobility of the late 18th - early 19th centuries. But in pre-revolutionary science, according to G. Zlochevsky, a comprehensive study of the estate culture was not carried out; publications about estates were mostly descriptive; the authors of articles and monographs acted more like historians and chroniclers (Zlochevsky, 1993, p. 85).

During the Soviet period, the study of the noble estate practically ceased, or was carried out from an ideological standpoint. In 1926, for example, the book by E.S. Kots “The Serf Intelligentsia” was published, in which local life is presented from a negative side (in particular, the author examines in detail the issue of serf harems). Memoirs written in Soviet times become the property of readers, as a rule, only after many years. So, for example, in 2000, the memoirs of L.D. Dukhovskaya (nee Voyekova) were published, the author of which is trying to rehabilitate the estate culture in the eyes of his contemporaries: them and myself an excuse." (Dukhovskaya, 2000, p. 345).

An active revival of interest in the noble estate begins in the last decade of the 20th century. There are many historical and cultural works devoted to the study of life, culture, architecture, and the history of noble estates. Among them, it is necessary to name the work of Yu.M. Lotman “Conversations about Russian culture. Life and traditions of the Russian nobility (XVIII - early XIX centuries) ”(St. Petersburg, 1997), as well as collections of the Society for the Study of the Russian Estate, including the works of many researchers (G.Yu. Sternina, O.S. Evangulova, T. P. Kazhdan, M.V. Nashchokina, L.P. Sokolova, L.V. Rasskazova, E.N. Savinova,

V.I.Novikov, A.A.Shmelev, A.V.Razina, E.G.Safonova, M.Yu.Korobka, T.N.Golovina and others). It is also necessary to note the fundamental collective work "Noble and merchant rural estate in Russia in the 16th - 20th centuries." (M., 2001); collections “The World of the Russian Estate” (M., 1995) and “Noble Nests of Russia. History, culture, architecture” (M., 2000); works by L.V. Ershova (Ershov, 1998), V. Kuchenkova (Kuchenkova, 2001), E.M. Lazareva (Lazareva, 1999),

S.D. Ohlyabinina (Okhlyabinin, 2006), E.V. Lavrent’eva (Lavrent’eva, 2006).

In recent years, in addition, several dissertations have been defended that consider the estate as a phenomenon of Russian culture, economics, and politics (Popova M.S. Russian noble estate in the context of the mentality of Russian culture (M., 2004); Kuznetsova Yu.M. Russian noble estate Economic, political and socio-cultural aspects (Samara, 2005), Ponomareva MV Noble estate in the cultural and artistic life of Russia (M., 2005)).

The authors of these works seek to substantiate the significance of the noble estate for the history of Russia, to show the organic connection of the noble estate with Russian culture, to prove that the estate was not something alien in relation to the latter, but was its integral part. In the noted historical and cultural works, the Russian noble estate is considered as a special microcosm, the whole Universe (O.S. Evangulova, T.P. Kazhdan, M.V. Nashchokina), which is a universal symbol of Russian life (G.Yu. Sternin) , the quintessence of the Russian state (M.V. Nashchokina, Yu.M. Kuznetsova), the center for the formation, development and preservation of the dominant features of Russian culture, an indicator of the state of Russian culture (Popova M.S.). Scientists especially emphasize the value of a personal, individual beginning in a noble estate (each estate, "both literally and figuratively, is" handmade "" (Kuznetsova, 2005, p. 146); "self-portrait of the owner" (Evangulova, 1996, p.49); even “parts of the garden [.] became, as it were, parts [.] of the inner world” of the owners (Nashchokina, 2001, p. 12)), as well as the metaphorical correlation in Russian culture of the estate with the image of the Garden of Eden.

However, as we have already noted, the subject of the study of these works is the noble estate as a phenomenon of Russian history, economy, and culture. The appeal of scientists to Russian literature in these cases is limited to the task of simply illustrating certain features of its history, economic and everyday life.

The image of a noble estate in Russian literature of the 18th - 20th centuries receives a wider and more multifaceted coverage in the book by E.E. Dmitrieva, O.N. The authors refer to a huge number of literary sources, including few or completely unknown ones. However, this work is more art criticism than literary criticism. Artistic works are often used as illustrative material for cultural aspects, showing how a real estate influenced Russian literature, or, conversely, how literature shaped "estate life, and real estate space, and the very way of living in the estate" (Dmitrieva, Kuptsova, 2003, p. 5).

Until now, a comprehensive literary study of the image of a noble estate in the prose of the turn of the 19th - 20th centuries as a phenomenon of the Russian literary process has not been created.

The most complete image of the noble estate was studied in Russian literature of the second half of the 19th century, in the works of S.T. Aksakov, I.S. Turgenev, I.A. Goncharov, L.N. Tolstoy (see, for example, the works of V.M. Markovich "I.S. Turgenev and the Russian realistic novel of the 19th century" (L., 1982), V.G. The image of a noble estate in the works of S.T. Aksakov, I.S. Turgenev and L.N. Tolstoy "(Magnitogorsk, 1991); G.N. Popova" The world of the Russian province in the novels of I.A. Goncharov "(Yelets, 2002 )).

In Russian prose of the late 19th - early 20th centuries, the image of a noble estate is considered on the basis of the works of a limited circle of authors. So the critics of the beginning of the 20th century focused on the depiction of local life in the works of I.A. Bunin and A.N. Tolstoy, as well as A.V. Amfiteatrov and S.N. Sergeev-Tsensky. However, in the critical works of the early 20th century, there is no consideration of the image of a noble estate as a phenomenon of Russian culture in the literature of a certain period as a whole. Critics such as K. Chukovsky (Chukovsky, 1914, p. 73-88), V. Lvov-Rogachevsky (Lvov-Rogachevsky, 1911, p. 240-265), G. Chulkov (Chulkov, 1998, p. 392- 395) ), E. Lundberg (Lundberg, 1914, p. 51), A. Gvozdev (Gvozdev, 1915, p. 241-242), characterizing the image of local life in the works of the above-mentioned writers, are limited to one or two phrases, they only mention the conversion authors to the image of local life. So, for example, G. Chulkov, analyzing the story of I. A. Bunin "New Year", speaks of the miraculous power of the estate, awakening in the heroes a feeling of love (Chulkov, 1998, p. 394). V. Cheshikhin-Vetrinsky, considering such works by A.N. Tolstoy as "The Lame Master" and "The Ravines", emphasize the "warm, sincere attitude of the author" to the provincial noble life and "the people of this life" (Cheshikhin-Vetrinsky, 1915, p.438). E. Koltonovskaya writes about the writer's attempt in the cycle "Trans-Volga" through the image of the local nobility "to look into the elemental depths of the Russian man, his nature, his soul" (Koltonovskaya, 1916, p. 72).

Being noticed in the works of I.A. Bunin, A.N. Tolstoy, A.V. Amfiteatrov and S.N. Sergeev-Tsensky, but not having received sufficient development here either, the image of a noble estate in the works of other writers we are considering of the late XIX - the beginning of the 20th century turned out to be completely unexplored by the criticism of the "Silver Age".

In modern literary science, the image of a noble estate in the works of many authors of the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries still remains unexplored. Such scientists as N.V. Barkovskaya (Barkovskaya, 1996), L.A. Kolobaeva (Kolobaeva, 1990), Yu.V. Maltsev (Maltsev, 1994), M.V. Mikhailova (Mikhailova, 2004), O. V.Slivitskaya (Slivitskaya, 2004), R.S.Spivak (Spivak, 1997), refer to the image of a noble estate in the works of I.A.Bunin, A.Bely, F.K.Sologub, I.A.Novikov. But in the works of these scientists, the image of a noble estate is not the object of a special, detailed analysis.

The image of a noble estate becomes the subject of a separate study in the works of N.S. Avilova (Avilova, 2001), U.K. Abisheva (Abisheva, 2002). G.A. Golotina (Golotina, 1985), L.V. Ershova (Ershova, 1998, 1999, 2002), N.V. Zaitseva (Zaitseva, 1999), L.P. nyh creativity of I.A. Bunin and A.N. Tolstoy.

In literary science, the reasons for the destruction and decline of the noble estate in the work of I.A. Bunin are revealed, the dialectical nature of Bunin's concept of the estate is noted, as well as the idealization of estate life in the writer's emigrant work.

L.V. Ershova in the article “Images-symbols of the estate world in the prose of I.A. Bunin” speaks of the writer’s ambivalent attitude to the world of the noble estate and divides the symbols in the works of I.A. Bunin into two rows: negative, “reflecting desolation and the death of the former "gold mine" of the Russian provinces", and positive, "associated with deep and sincere nostalgia, with memory, which tends to idealize the past, elevate and romanticize it" (Ershova, 2002, p. 105). In the emigrant period, from the point of view of the researcher, the positive and negative series of images-symbols opposed to each other come to a dialectical unity - "estate culture is presented in them as part of the all-Russian history" (Ershova, 2002, p. 107). The article "Bunin's lyrics and Russian estate culture" by L.V. Ershova notes the simultaneous depiction of the extinction of the noble estate and its poeticization in the poetry of I.A. Bunin. As the researcher writes, the antithesis “estate-capital” is reflected in the lyrics of I.A. Bunin; the figurative system external to the manor opposes the artist's warmth of the house, which is a protection and a talisman for the lyrical hero.

A different point of view on the image of the house by I.A. Bunin is presented in the work of G.A. Golotina. Considering the theme of the house in the lyrics of I.A. Bunin, the author talks about the doom of the family nest to destruction and death and believes that if in the early poems the house is a reliable protection in all the vicissitudes of life, then since the beginning of the 1890s, the house of I. A. Bunina has never been a prosperous family nest.

N.V. Zaitseva traces the evolution of the image of a noble estate in the prose of I.A. Bunin in 1890 - early 1910s, concludes that the estate in the writer's works is a small estate.

In the prose of A.N. Tolstoy, the image of a noble estate is considered in the works of L.V. Ershova (Ershova, 1998), N.S. Avilova (Avilova, 2001), U.K. Abisheva (Abisheva, 2002). But the range of the writer's works, to which these researchers turn, is limited ("Nikita's Childhood", "The Dreamer (Aggey Korovin)"). Many aspects of the artistic image of the noble estate in the work of A.N. Tolstoy remain unexplored.

L.V. Ershova in the article "The world of the Russian estate in the artistic interpretation of the writers of the first wave of Russian emigration" notes a strong tendency to idealize the image of the noble estate in the "Childhood of Nikita" by A.N. . N.S. Avilova writes about the opposition in "Nikita's Childhood" of the image of the estate as a reliable protection and protection of the heroes to the image of the surrounding steppe. U.K.Abisheva in the article "The Artistic Reception of Russian Manor Prose in A. Tolstoy's The Dreamer (Haggey Korovin)" reveals the traditional and innovative in Tolstoy's understanding of manor life.

The scientific novelty of the dissertation work is determined by the research material (for analysis, a large volume of works of the late 19th and early 20th centuries is involved, in which the image of a noble estate was not previously the object of study); an integrated approach to the study of the image of a noble estate as a phenomenon of Russian culture in the literature of the late XIX - early XX centuries as a whole; historical and typological approach to its study; aspects of considering the image of a noble estate that are new for literary criticism.

The purpose of the dissertation is to consider the image of a noble estate as one of the central symbols of Russian culture, representative of the modernization of Russian artistic consciousness at the turn of the 19th - 20th centuries.

Achieving this goal involves solving the following tasks: - to identify and describe the general system of universals in which the image of a Russian noble estate in the prose of the late 19th - early 20th centuries is interpreted and evaluated;

To create a typology of the image of a noble estate in the fiction of the designated period, revealing the main trends in the artistic understanding of the historical path of Russia in the prose of the turn of the 19th-20th centuries; - to analyze the features of the artistic image of the noble estate by the leading directions of the Russian literary process of the late XIX - early XX centuries;

To trace the fate of the moral code of the noble estate in the literature of the first wave of Russian emigration, as well as its influence on the formation of both the oppositional line of Soviet literature and literature biased by official ideology. The main provisions for defense:

1. In Russian prose of the late 19th - early 20th centuries, there were three concepts of a noble estate: idealizing, critical, dialectical, fixing in their totality the dynamics of the historical process in Russian public consciousness at the turn of the 19th - 20th centuries.

2. Each concept forms its own image of the artistic world. Three artistic models of a noble estate are created through the writers' interpretation and evaluation of the estate's way of life in the general system of universals, which are childhood, love, family memory.

3. The image of a noble estate in works with a predominant idealizing concept is depicted as the embodiment of moral and aesthetic norms that are of decisive importance for Russian culture: stability, the value of the personal principle, a sense of the connection of times, veneration of traditions, life in unity with the earthly and heavenly world.

4. The critical concept destroys the idyllic-mythologized image of the noble estate, debunks the moral foundations of the estate culture. The childhood and love of noble heroes are portrayed by the authors as "distorted"; the burdened consciousness of the inhabitants of the noble estate with ancestral memory is conceived as the cause of its death.

5. The works of the dialectical concept are characterized by the synthesis of an idealizing and critical view of the phenomenon of the noble estate in the history and culture of Russia. In the image of a noble estate, the same spiritual values ​​and foundations are affirmed as in the works of the idealizing concept. However, the estate world in the works of this group is no longer ideal, it includes an element of disharmony.

6. In the artistic interpretation of the image of a noble estate, representatives of various literary movements reflected the main features of the Russian literary process of the late 19th - early 20th centuries.

7. The moral code of the noble estate left a big mark on the Russian culture of subsequent periods: it had a noticeable influence on the literature of the Russian diaspora, as well as on the formation of both the oppositional line of Soviet literature and literature biased by official ideology.

The methodological basis of the work is an integrated approach to the study of literary heritage, focused on a combination of several methods of literary analysis: historical-typological, cultural-contextual, structural-semiotic, mythopoetic. The solution of the research tasks formulated above led to the appeal to the works

M.M.Bakhtin, V.A.Keldysh, B.O.Korman, D.S.Likhachev, A.F.Losev, Yu.M.Lotman, E.M.Meletinsky, V.N.Toporov, V. I.Tyupa. The theoretical categories used in the dissertation (artistic image, artistic world, artistic mode, chronotope, symbol, myth) are interpreted by us according to the developments of these scientists.

Theoretical value of the dissertation. The dissertation enriches the tools of literary analysis 1) with new models of chronotopes; 2) a system of new universals, productive for transitional periods of cultural development; 3) confirms and concretizes on the new material as a general pattern the multidirectional artistic searches for the literary process of transitional periods.

The practical significance of the work is related to the possibility of using its materials and results in general lecture courses on the history of Russian literature and special courses on the history of Russian prose, Russian culture of the 19th-20th centuries.

Approbation of work. The main provisions of the dissertation are reflected in 16 publications (7 abstracts, 9 articles), including a peer-reviewed publication recommended by the Higher Attestation Commission of the Russian Federation for the publication of works of applicants for scientific degrees, as well as in reports at international, all-Russian, interuniversity conferences in the years. Perm, Solikamsk, Izhevsk, St. Petersburg, Moscow.

Dissertation structure. The work consists of an introduction, three chapters, a conclusion and a list of references, including 220 titles. The first chapter "Idealizing Conception of a Noble Manor" examines the principles of idealizing the image of a manor through the establishment of moral and aesthetic norms that make up the code of manor life. The second chapter "The Critical Conception of the Noble Estate" is devoted to the consideration of the opposite idealization of the phenomenon: criticism of the noble estate, debunking the moral foundations of the estate culture. The third chapter "The Dialectical Concept of the Noble Estate" analyzes the process of synthesis of idealization and criticism, which forms such

Conclusion

The noble estate is one of the most mysterious phenomena of Russian culture, which is associated with many unresolved issues. In Russian literature of the 18th - 20th centuries, the image of a noble estate was repeatedly recreated, comprehended and rethought. At the end of the 19th - beginning of the 20th centuries, this image becomes one of the central ones in Russian literature, representative of the modernization of Russian artistic consciousness at the turn of the century: the appeal to the image of a noble estate is accompanied by a rethinking by the writers of many issues raised by Russian literature and culture of the 18th - 19th centuries, as well as the formulation new problems related to the further development of Russia.

The assessment of the role and place of the noble estate in the history and culture of Russia in the prose of the turn of the 19th-20th centuries, as we have seen, is far from the same. Its range ranges from absolute idealization to the same absolute criticism, complete overthrow and debunking of the vital foundations of a noble estate. However, to a greater extent, the writers of this period are characterized by an ambivalent attitude towards the noble estate, the simultaneous recognition of its merits and mistakes.

In Russian literature of the late 19th - early 20th centuries, as shown in our work, there were three concepts of a noble estate, three views on one of the most profound and multifaceted, in our opinion, symbols of Russian culture. In the works of the idealizing concept, the idealization and mythologization of the image of the noble estate prevails. This concept forms a special image of the artistic world, which is based on the idyllic chronotope "House" - as a national form of paradise, the original heavenly abode of the soul. The time of this chronotope is the original time of creation, paradise existence, characterized by uniformity and cyclicality. The space of a noble estate in the works of an idealizing concept simultaneously possesses such properties as introversion and extroversion, harmoniously combining a certain isolation and self-sufficiency with openness and infinity. In the works of representatives of the idealizing concept, those foundations of the local way of life are highlighted and symbolized, the essence of which is connected with the eternal principles of being (B.K. Zaitsev, I.A. Novikov, P.S. Romanov, A.N. Tolstoy). The image of a noble estate in the works of an idealizing concept is accompanied by the motifs of childhood as a paradise, legendary existence, memory, mystery and inviolability of the past, deep kinship with the past. The very idealization of the noble estate in this group of works becomes a guarantee of preserving the personal principle, one's individuality in a rapidly changing world - through the affirmation of life values ​​and foundations that are enduring, from the point of view of writers: childhood, love, memory, interconnection with nature.

A completely different view of the image we are considering is presented in the works of a critical concept, the purpose of which is the destruction of the idyllic mythologized image of a noble estate, debunking its moral and aesthetic norms. The critical concept, as well as the idealizing one, forms a special image of the artistic world of the estate, which in this case is based on the chronotope of the "cottage". This chronotope is characterized by temporality and limitation. The space of the “dacha” chronotope is characterized by extreme isolation, artificiality, and impenetrability. In this chronotope, such modes of artistry as comedy, humor, irony find expression. The works of the critical concept emphasize the extinction of life, the economic and spiritual degeneration of the noble manor culture. The nobility is characterized by a propensity for extreme tyranny, for unbearable exploitation of the peasantry; noble heroes are overly exalted, incapable of actively transforming reality (A.N. Tolstoy, S.N. Sergeev-Tsensky, S.M. Gorodetsky, A.N. Budischev, A.V. Amfiteatrov, B.A. Sadovskoy). In the works of a number of representatives of the critical concept, when the myth of the estate as the promised land is destroyed, another myth is created, a kind of anti-myth of the noble estate, in which the estate world appears as a terrible and mysterious, seized by the forces of fate, depriving the heroes of vital energy, leading them to death, often to death. suicide (B.A. Sadovskoy, S.M. Gorodetsky, S.N. Sergeev-Tsensky).

A peculiar synthesis of idyllic and critical views on the image of a noble estate occurs in the dialectical concept (I.A. Bunin, A.P. Chekhov, N.G. Garin-Mikhailovsky, A. Bely, G.I. Chulkov, S.A. Auslender and etc.). Such modes of artistry as tragic and dramatic find expression in the works of this concept. The artistic world of the estate in the works of the designated concept is based on the dramatic chronotope of the “crossroads”. The works of the dialectical concept reflect the complexity and inconsistency of the estate world; the attitude of writers to the estate can be described as "attraction-repulsion". Along with the poeticization of the estate life and the recognition of the basic values ​​of the noble culture, the authors show the disappearance of the estate into the past. In the works of the dialectical concept, the life of a noble estate is included in the broad context of Russian and world culture. Writers introduce many reminiscences and allusions to Russian and Western European art into their works. The rethinking of cultural traditions leads to the understanding that the golden past of the noble estate has outlived its usefulness, but the moral and aesthetic values ​​of noble culture, which have no replacement, also die with it. Such a view of the noble estate is marked by the stamp of tragedy.

It would be wrong, in our opinion, to talk about the limitations of any of the concepts presented above. Each concept reveals its own sides of a noble estate, makes its own accents, carries its own truth. In the work of the same writer, different views on the image of a noble estate can be combined, forming a multifaceted view of the author on the problem we are considering (A.P. Chekhov, A.N. Tolstoy, G.I. Chulkov, S.A. Auslender). The image of the noble estate as a whole, as a phenomenon of Russian historical reality of the 18th - early 20th centuries, reflected, from our point of view, a common feature of the Russian soul: Russia is “contradictory, antinomic”, and you can know its secret, as N.A. Berdyaev, only immediately recognizing its "terrible inconsistency" (Berdyaev, 1997, p. 228).

At the turn of the XIX - XX centuries, increased attention was paid to the image of the noble estate, as we have shown, by writers of various views, belonging to different literary movements and associations. An analysis of all the main variants of the image of the estate allows us to raise the question of the features of the embodiment of this image within the framework of various artistic movements of the late XIX - early XX centuries: the naturalistic tradition, the realistic tradition, the directions of symbolism, acmeism, writers of the "intermediate type" (Keldysh).

The naturalistic tradition is characterized by a critical attitude towards the image of the Russian noble estate and noble heroes. We refer to the naturalistic tradition such works considered in our work as “The Fire-flower” by A.V. Amfiteatrov and “The Breaks of Love” by A.N. Budischev. Novel

We rank A.V. Amfiteatrov among the designated tradition, in particular, following

V.L. Lvov-Rogachevsky, who noted in the article “A Writer Without Fiction” (1911) the excessive naturalism of the writer’s artistic manner. The image of the noble estate in the named works of A.V. Amfiteatrov and A.N. Budischev is not individualized; in the center of the work is not so much a personal collision, the inner world of the hero, as the capture of a certain social (noble) environment, society as such. The purpose of these works is to study this social group (nobility) using the achievements of advanced science, using scientific terminology (A.V. Amfiteatrov's novel). By the end of the works of these writers, a certain mental illness characteristic of this social group is revealed, and its diagnosis is made. According to A.V. Amfiteatrov and A.N. Budischev, the root of mental deviations of the nobility lies not in socio-historical or existential areas (as happens in the works of realism or modernism), but in the natural laws of nature and human physiology.

The most multifaceted image of the Russian noble estate in the literature of the turn of the 19th - 20th centuries was embodied in the works of the realistic tradition. In the work of realist writers, all the concepts of the noble estate considered by us are reflected: idealizing, critical, dialectical. The attitude of writers to the image of a noble estate is determined, in our opinion, both by the problems sharpened in the work, by the tasks that the author sets himself, by the time and place of writing the work, and by the creative individuality of the author. The artistic interpretation of the image of a noble estate by writers of the realistic tradition reflected the main features of realism at the beginning of the 20th century. The sharpening of socio-historical problems in the image of a noble estate is combined with problems of a universal, substantial nature (D.V. Grigorovich, N.G. Garin-Mikhailovsky, I.A. Bunin, A.N. Tolstoy, S.N. Sergeev-Tsensky ). The widespread use of subject matter, a certain determinism of the character by the historical situation is complemented by an appeal to the poetics of other directions (the use of symbolism, impressionistic imagery, the strengthening of the lyrical beginning).

A new, although largely prepared by Russian culture and literature of past centuries, comprehension of the noble estate takes place in the work of symbolist writers. In their works, the image of a noble estate is largely deprived of concrete historical content and becomes a deep philosophically loaded symbol. Thus, in A. Bely's novels "Silver Dove" and "Petersburg", the image of a noble estate is considered by the author in connection with the problem of the collision of the west and east in Russia, as well as with the problem of confrontation in the culture of the Dionysian and Apollonian principles. In the works of the mystical symbolist G.I. Chulkov, a noble estate becomes a special model of the universe, which has its own internal laws and has its own life, different from other worlds. The main essence of this world is, from the point of view of G.I. Chulkov, the indissoluble unity in it of the life of the past and the present - not only of noble culture, but of the entire human race.

The image of a noble estate as a model of the universe is also vividly represented in the works of such a symbolist as I.A. Novikov. In contrast to the works of A. Bely and G. I. Chulkov, in which the spirit of destruction and gradual fading wafts over the image of a noble estate, characteristic of the work of I. A. Novikov is the idea of ​​a noble estate as a special harmoniously arranged world. In the noble estate of I.A. Novikov, the fullness of being with its joys and sufferings, dreams and reality, gains and losses, meetings and partings, where the human soul can develop harmoniously and holistically, is embodied. It is in such a world, which is the image of a noble estate in the works of the writer, that the basic essential laws of the world order can be fully embodied.

The artistic interpretation of the image of a noble estate acquires its own characteristics in the work of acmeists. The principles of acmeism find expression, in our opinion, in such works considered in our work as "Dreamers" (1912), "The Deceased in the House" (1913) by M.A. Kuzmin and "The Terrible Manor" (1913) by S.M. Gorodetsky. In understanding the image of a noble estate, for M.A. Kuzmin and S. M. Gorodetsky, as well as for the symbolists, the socio-historical issues that are important for realists are insignificant. Unlike the works of symbolists and realists, in the works of M.A. Kuzmin and S. M. Gorodetsky indicated above, there is no symbolization of the image of a noble estate (“A = A”). As acmeists, M.A. Kuzmin and S.M. Gorodetsky are more interested in the aesthetic and cultural content of the image we are considering. Descriptions of the manor park, halls and furnishings of the manor house serve as aesthetic signs of the outgoing era of "noble nests".

M.A. Kuzmin and S. M. Gorodetsky are united by a negative attitude towards the image of a noble estate. In the images of noble heroes, writers, as a negative, emphasize detachment from real life reality, illusory nature, addiction to dreams, passion for theosophy, occult sciences, and magic. All this, from the point of view of M.A. Kuzmin and S.M. Gorodetsky, takes the heroes away from real life and deprives them of the joy of being. This position of M.A. Kuzmin and

S.M. Gorodetsky is different from the opinion of the Symbolists, who see the only possibility for their harmonious existence in the world in the possession of noble heroes of secret spiritual knowledge and skills (F.K. Sologub, G.I. Chulkov). In the works of M.A. Kuzmin and S.M. Gorodetsky, the image of a noble estate, saturated with an atmosphere of mystery, fatal predestination, the relationship between the world of the dead and the world of the living, is opposed to real life with its freedom, beauty, and joy. The exit (more precisely, the escape) of the heroes from the estate (or the estate-dacha) is equated in the works of writers with the return from death to life (“Deceased in the House” by M.A. Kuzmin, “Terrible Manor” by S.M. Gorodetsky).

The image of a noble estate is also embodied in the works of writers of the “intermediate type” (Keldysh), namely in the prose of B.K. Zaitsev. In various works of the writer, both an idyllic (“Dawn”) and a dialectical (“Far Territory”) view of the Russian noble estate were reflected. The works of B.K. Zaitsev are characterized by the symbolization and mythologization of the image of a noble estate, which in the writer’s artistic system is associated with the image of Eden, the Garden of Eden, the Promised Land, the original womb of the existence of the human soul. A significant role in shaping the image of a noble estate in the prose of B.K. Zaitsev is played by the category of culture. The world of the noble estate of B.K. Zaitsev reflects the spiritual potential of Russian and world culture, the relationship with which is constantly felt in the way of thinking and behavior of the writer's noble heroes.

In the image of a noble estate in Russian prose of the late 19th - early 20th centuries, in our opinion, the main processes characteristic of the historical and philosophical life of Russia in the era of change were reflected. A change in lifestyle, paradigms of thinking, a change in the traditional role of classes in the history of Russia, attitudes towards tradition, a change in the code of values ​​- all this is reflected in the image of a noble estate. The analysis of the concepts of the estate highlighted in the dissertation testifies to the actualization for Russian society at the turn of the 19th - 20th centuries, along with the socio-historical problems of the complex internal nature of man, the role of the irrational in man, the relationship between social and metaphysical principles, personality and collective, the problem of cosmism. Being largely correlated with the literary tradition of the 19th century, the image of a noble estate at the turn of the century significantly changes its nature: the concrete historical content of this image is supplemented by the universal one.

In Russian prose of the late 19th - early 20th centuries, in the works of the idealizing and dialectical concept of a noble estate, moral and aesthetic values ​​\u200b\u200bthat are inherent both in Russian culture as a whole and unique, characteristic only of a noble estate, were concentrated. The ideas of the House as the eternal abode of the human soul, the unity of earthly and heavenly being, the freedom and value of the individual, harmony with the universe, a deep relationship with all living things, continuity and Memory - tribal and cultural were correlated with the image of the noble estate. But an irreversible vector of the historical path of Russia is also fixed, which enters into dialectical relations with these values.

After the revolution of 1917, the moral and aesthetic foundations of the life of a noble estate fell into disgrace. The fate of the noble estate in the Soviet era is well known: the eviction, arrests and murders of former estate owners, the destruction of estates, their use as a place of rest for the new government elite, and the like. The debunking of the noble estate and its moral and aesthetic norms became a form of class struggle, a way to establish a new ideology. However, the understanding of the estate in Russian prose at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries had, in our opinion, a significant impact on the further development of both Soviet literature and, of course, the literature of Russian abroad.

In the literature of the first wave of Russian emigration, the idealizing concept of a noble estate is most developed. Away from Russia, the myth of the estate as the promised land, the primary source of being (I.A. Bunin, B.K. Zaitsev, V.V. Nabokov, P.N. Krasnov) is finally formed. The organizing motives of this myth are the motives of childhood as the childhood of being, morning as the morning of being, creativity (through creativity, connection and connection with the Creator of the world), ancestral continuity, lost paradise, which are partly characteristic of the works of the idealizing concept in the prose of the early 20th century. In the manor myth, the theme of creativity declares itself brighter than before. Creativity is associated by its nature with the primary source of being, in which it receives its beginning and life impulse; through creativity, the Creator reveals Himself to the artist (I.A. Bunin, B.K. Zaitsev). The image of a noble estate is similar in its semantics to the image of Russia. The estate and Russia are equally associated with the feeling of silence, with the images of mother and birch, and most importantly, they merge in the image of the lost and desecrated Motherland. Russia and the estate remain in the past, they live only in the soul; and since the soul breathes eternity, the past acquires immortality (I.A. Bunin, B.K. Zaitsev, I.S. Shmelev).

As for Russian literature of the 20th century proper, the artistic model of the critical concept of the noble estate left a big mark on it. A critical look at the values ​​of the noble estate contributed to the emergence of a new positive hero in literature, which was formed according to the logic of direct repulsion from the hero of the noble estate, in a direct dispute with him. This dispute constantly reminds us of the old hero, does not let us forget about him. A noble hero, possessing internal complexity, inconsistency, striving to resolve many existential issues (which we showed when considering the works of an idealizing and dialectical concept), is perceived as a class enemy and is emphatically replaced by a hero of proletarian origin, devoid of spiritual reflection and possessing such qualities as immutability , certainty, straightforwardness (Sinyavsky, 1990, p.59-60). The image of the new hero poeticizes blind devotion to the idea of ​​a complete rejection of the past, selflessness, readiness to "lay down one's life" for the working class; such a hero appreciates the idea more than a person, prefers the general to the individual (D. Furmanov, A. Serafimovich, A. Fadeev, N. Ostrovsky). Personal values ​​in the literature of socialist realism are replaced by collective values. The main criterion for evaluating a hero is not his spiritual essence, but his ideological position (F. Gladkov, V. Kochetov). There is a rejection of such important categories for the noble estate as ancestral memory and love as the main meaning of life. The whole existence of heroes is directed towards the construction of a bright future, comprehended in the doctrine of Soviet ideology. In the 1930s, this feature finds a vivid expression in the development of the so-called "industrial prose"; instead of a secluded “corner” of a noble estate, the world space bursts into fiction, united by the revolution and the construction of a new life (F. Gladkov, F. Panferov, M. Shaginyan, V. Kataev, N. Ostrovsky).

However, the model of the idealizing concept of a noble estate did not remain unaccepted by Russian literature of the 20th century. Moral and aesthetic criteria for assessing personality and way of life, marked by an idealizing concept, are especially recognizable in the works of M. Bulgakov "The White Guard", "Days of the Turbins" and B. Pasternak "Doctor Zhivago" (the value of the family, personality, a certain cultural and psychological warehouse) . But, paradoxically, traces of the named concept of a noble estate can be found, in our opinion, in the literature of socialist realism. We see them in the actualization of the spiritual aspect of love, the ideals of friendship, loyalty and devotion to a person, word, Motherland (F. Gladkov, A. Kaverin, B. Lavrenyov, A. Arbuzov, A. Fadeev, A. Tvardovsky, B. Polevoy and others .). The values ​​of the idealizing concept of a noble estate are also manifested in the significance of childhood in a person’s life (although different from the childhood of noble heroes), the phenomenon of the family, which, although polemical to the ideal of a noble family and has completely different social roots (worker dynasties), plays an important role. role in the artistic systems of a number of writers (V. Kochetov). Moral and aesthetic aspects, marked by the idealizing concept of a noble estate, are also recognizable in the sharpening of the problem of the relationship between man and nature, preserving the beauty and harmony of the world order (L. Leonov).

In Russian literature of the 20th century, there was, in addition, a third trend, genetically linked, in our opinion, with the dialectical concept of a noble estate. This trend is characterized by a certain synthetism, which finds expression, in particular, in the prose of A. Platonov. A. Platonov, on the one hand, repels the noble culture. His hero is a man from the people, accepting the revolution, possessing, in comparison with the hero of a noble estate, a completely different social experience, other ideals. But, on the other hand, for A. Platonov, it is very important to understand the complexity of the inner world of a person, the rejection of herding, the search for beauty. With all the striving of the Platonic hero towards the new world, he cannot go to it without recourse to memory. It is the memories of childhood, although different from childhood in a noble estate, that become the key to comprehending the world for the protagonist of Platonov's Chevengur.

In Russian literature of the 1960s and 1970s, the moral code of the noble estate, its values ​​and priorities are being resurrected only in the lives of people of a different social status: the intelligentsia, the peasantry. Writers sharpen the problem of human degradation, loss of life values ​​and foundations; there is a desire to preserve, remember, restore, return the desecrated, forgotten, lost, lost (M. Prishvin, “lieutenant prose”, K. Paustovsky, V. Shukshin, S. Zalygin, Yu. Trifonov, A. G. Bitov).

In fiction, in particular, the motive of the lost home appears (Yu. Trifonov), the problem of preserving the individual, individuality in the world of collectivism and socialist transformations is emphasized (V. Tendryakov). Often the reason for the loss of one's own "I" is associated in the literature of the 1960s-1970s with the loss of memory, without which, from the point of view of writers, there can be no real, real life (Yu. Trifonov).

In the noted period in Russian literature, the view of such concepts as the nobility and aristocracy is changing. The nobility is comprehended by writers and poets not as a social status, but as spirituality, intelligence; it is in the spiritual sphere (love, friendship) that the priorities of the poets of the 60s (B. Okudzhava, B. Akhmadulina, N. Matveeva, Yu. Moritz) lie. The theme of the intelligentsia in fiction is associated with the problem of a person's moral choice, preservation of memory, relationships between fathers and children, fidelity, purity of friendship and love (Y. Trifonov, A. Bitov, D. Granin, B. Okudzhava, B. Akhmadulina).

In Russian prose of the 1970s-1990s, the problems of the deformation of society, disrespect for man, the cruelty of the modern world and the loneliness of man in it are sharpened; writers oppose the moral, spiritual impoverishment of the individual, stand up for the revival of its inner wealth, for the restoration of the system of moral values, which are directly related, in our opinion, to the moral and aesthetic code of the noble estate (L. Petrushevskaya, V. Tokareva, T. Tolstaya, Yu. Dombrovsky, V. Makanin).

In the literature of the 1990s-2000s, the motif of childhood, characteristic of the works of the dialectical concept of a noble estate, reappears as a paradise, legendary existence - irretrievably lost, however (V. Lorchenkov).

The departure after the revolution from Russian literature and culture of the image of a noble estate as the main symbol of the promised land led to the need to form a replacement for it. On the one hand, as the image of paradise in the literature of the Soviet period, a kind of vague future was seen, to which all the positive heroes of "socialist realism" were striving. On the other hand, in the 1970s, the functions of the promised land were assumed by the image of the village, which is reflected in the “village prose” (V. Rasputin, V. Astafiev, V. Belov, F. Abramov).

The images of the noble estate and the village are brought together by the priority of memory in the lives of heroes, their unity with nature, and their relationship to time. In the works of the idealizing concept, we noted such a feature of the estate time as measured, unhurried, cyclical nature, which, according to the writers, was a way of resisting the rapidly changing world and preserving one's individuality and trace in it. A similar attitude to time is also characteristic of the heroes of “village prose”, in which a measured, calm, thoughtful village existence, which allows one to save one’s soul, is opposed to the accelerated, subordinate technology of city life, where a person in a hurry has no time to think about his spiritual foundation.

However, there are significant differences between the images of the noble estate and the village. If, as we noted in the first chapter, the space of a noble estate in Russian prose of the turn of the 19th - 20th centuries is characterized by simultaneous introversion and extroversion, self-direction and at the same time a deep relationship with the entire universe, which makes the estate a receptacle not only for the ancestral, but also general cultural memory, then the idyllic space of the village turns out to be self-sufficient, separated from the surrounding world, essentially not connected with it (“Farewell to Matyora” by V. Rasputin).

The difference between the image of a village and a noble estate indicates that an equivalent replacement in Russian literature and culture of one symbol of the promised land by another did not happen. According to V.G. Shchukin, the functions of a noble estate in Russian fiction of the 20th century are finally taken over by a dacha (Shchukin, 1997, p. 212). However, we allow ourselves to disagree with this opinion. In our opinion, between the noble estate and the dacha in the fiction of both the 19th and 20th centuries, there were and there are many differences, the main of which is again the connection of the image of the estate, in contrast to the dacha, with ancestral and cultural memory, which makes the human personality protected from all the vicissitudes and cataclysms of world history.

Today, the life of a noble estate is moving farther and farther away from us, and with it the moral and aesthetic values ​​\u200b\u200bthat it kept in itself are gone and forgotten. However, these values ​​are necessary for the further full existence of both each of us individually, and for the revival and development of the entire Russian culture. The problem of loss of memory, one's own "I", one's roots and life foundations has not weakened in recent decades, but has become even more acute and relevant. And, apparently, in order to somehow solve the problems that confront us, we need to turn our faces to history, remember, peer into it, see its true undistorted image, and only in deep relationship with it move on, because, according to M.I .Gefter, “it is still a delusion that the future is always ahead. In fact, people, peoples, civilizations have long moved forward with their backs, facing the same thing that is without return and without oblivion. And now, especially now, the future in the demiurges has a memory” (Gefter, 1996, p. 80).

And the Russian estate in the literature of the late XIX - early XX centuries reminds us of this.
