Poet Izmailov Biography

Finally settled - and gave birth to a mouse! But this is the old one, everyone knows, a little thing, but I’ll say it: one poet wrote not a day, not two, but a whole month in a row, ink, baptized, maral; Then, having called friends, I read before them ... Sharad. A living language, flexible verse and the cheerful humor of Izmailov for years are practically not outdated.

The characters of his fables and fairy tales are written in large, textured and visibly, with many small and characteristic details. Contemporaries recognized specific persons in them. It is with this circumstance that the success of the lifetime editions of his “fables and fairy tales”, released in 12 years 5 times, is largely associated. Having written a sufficient number of fables, Izmailov decided to create a theoretical work on the fable, based in it on the research of the French theorists of this genre of the 18th century.

His “Experience about the story of the Basney” was released in a separate edition of the year. In the same year, in St. Petersburg, the collection of his works was first published secondly in the same place in the year and years in Moscow. A. Izmailov began his journal activity by the publication of the magazine "Fmarger" - years. In the year, he published the St.

Petersburg Bulletin, edited the "son of the Fatherland" within a year. From for a year he published the magazine "Blagored". In addition, in the years, A. Izmailov finished the last 2 parts of the languid “pantheon of Russian poetry” after the death of its publisher P. Nikolsky, and in the years he published two books of the Almanac “Calendar of the Muses”. The desire to get out of need forced A.

Izmailov to look for the places of the vice-governor in the province. In November, he was appointed vice-governor in Tver, and transferred to Arkhangelsk in the year. In Arkhangelsk, Alexander Izmailov was accepted as well as possible. The local intelligentsia was interested in literature and knew his fables and fairy tales. The official people, although he squinted at him unkindly, was silent for the time being, fearing his sharp pen.

At first, A. Izmailov did not touch anyone. He liked the city, people seemed pretty. In Arkhangelsk and Kholmogory, he enthusiastically wanted the descendants of Lomonosov, collected information about him. He wrote about this to his friends to St. Petersburg and even Walter Scott to England through the English merchant Mackenzie. In a letter to the writer, in particular, he reported: “In Arkhangelsk, I came to life.

Here I found a very good society, our glorious Russian sailors and foreign neutridges, primarily English and Swedish. For 80 years, I am a second Russian writer who got to Arkhangelsk. The first was the ancestor of our poetry, the immortal Lomonosov, the son of a poor fisherman from Kholmogor ... He is erecting a monument here, which he fully deserved as a great lyrical poet and as a scientist, with the greatest success, who cultivated our language, so beautiful and so difficult.

” His impressions from the city, especially from the bureaucrated elite of Arkhangelsk, soon changed dramatically. Again, he had to take on the pen, make fun of and expose. For about a year, he unsuccessfully fought with bribery and embezzlement of local officials. He grabbed with the governor of the region S. Minitsky himself and lost the battle. As a result of the slander of Minitsky, he was removed from his post.

Izmailov was forced to leave for Petersburg.
