For half a year, schoolchildren of the Arkhangelsk Region have been preparing books about the history of their families for publication. More than 100 schools of the Arkhangelsk region took part in the competition, and more than 350 texts were uploaded to the Ridero publishing system. Many of the works submitted to the competition by authors from 12 to 17 years old turned out to be genuine literature.

Thanks to the support of the regional government, schools of Pomorie will continue to participate in the project next year. In his greetings to the laureates of the competition, Governor I.A. Orlov noted: “ Often the history of our Motherland appears before the child in the classroom in the form of dry textbooks, studying it is memorizing important numbers and dates. Such information is difficult to perceive on a personal level. The competition provided an opportunity to create a “living story” based on personal and family memories. To connect the history of several generations of your family with the history of our country and our region. It really turned out to be a living story!»

All texts written by young authors can be readon the page "Living Chronicle" in Ridero ... Collectives of entire schools took part in the project.

To make your book real, you should talk to your parents, grandparents, uncles and aunts, and older friends. During the conversation, you will surely have your own questions - ask them too!

  1. Where do your family members come from? From the Arkhangelsk region or migrants? What made them travel to new places? And those who have not moved anywhere - what and how has changed in their lives?
  2. What did your relatives do and where did they work 15-30-50 years ago? What happened to your ancestors 100 years ago? How far can you trace your family history?
  3. Who of your family is the family told stories about? Who is most often remembered? Why?
  4. What family traditions do you have? Are there any historical dates or events that are especially important to your family? Why?
  5. What object in your home reminds you of family history? These can be old books or jewelry, pieces of furniture, awards or DIY items, photographs or paintings. It might even be your grandfather's motorcycle or a shed built in the last century!
  6. What hobbies did your family members have 15-30-50 years ago? How many contemporaries shared these hobbies with them? Do you have photographs or items related to these activities?
  7. Do you have any family memories associated with a theater or painting, with beautiful handicrafts, with visits to museums or something else that is notable in the cultural life of Arkhangelsk and the region?
  8. Have you traveled with your family in the Arkhangelsk region? What do you remember from these travels?
  9. What traditional holiday meal does your family have, and where did this tradition come from?

Perhaps it will be interesting for you, together with representatives of the older generation, to compose a genealogical tree of your family, mark on it who was born when, what they did, was interested in how they lived their life. Just draw on the largest piece of paper, marking all you can remember on it.

Of course, it will be more interesting to talk about some of the above things than about others, and some important topics are not mentioned here at all. It is not necessary to include all of them in your work, it will be very cool to come up with your own. That is why the writer, journalist, chronicler differs from the soulless automaton that they seek and describe their own stories.
Books by different authors may not be alike at all: one person will write a detailed historical commentary on the recipe for grandma's pie, another will investigate the dents on the bicycle frame, the third will tell the story of three generations, and the fourth will write a poem about one day. This is fine! The more original your essay is, the more readers will be carried away by your family story.

The pilot stage of the literary competition “Living Chronicle. The fate of the family in the history of the country ”- for six months, schoolchildren of the Arkhangelsk region studied the stories of their families, and then wrote books about them. About how the young authors managed to combine literature and history, find their own intonation, stretch the thread of the historical narrative for several generations back, and how the chronicle of one area can help the healing of injuries throughout the country, says the coordinator of the competition Alexander Gavrilov.

When we conceived "Zhivaya Chronicle" (personally this honor belongs to Alexander Krasnokutsky, who heads the publishing startup Ridero), we, of course, feared insincerity. Each of us went through high school. We all had an experience of secrecy at school, an experience of non-speaking. The teacher says: "Now write an essay on the topic" We are equal to those who are ahead of time "- and the teenager realizes that even if he has some ideas, he does not want to express his own, because he needs to reproduce others.

And we wanted people to talk about the true history of their families, not smoothed out, not embellished - as they tell at home, and not as they tell government officials. It seems to me that it succeeded.

From the collection "Good Memory"

Bileva Ksenia My dad's grandparents only met at their wedding. Before that, the grandmother, then young Masha, saw her future husband only once. And then because of the curtain, on the stove. He, according to the customs of those years, came to her father's house in the neighboring village of Podlesnaya, to get married. Now there is not a single house left in that village. There is only a telephone box installed in accordance with the village telephony program. It was at the end of the 20s of the last century. Dad, passing on the stories of his grandmother, Maria Nikolaevna Bileva, says that people lived well in those years: they sowed rye, oats, flax, grew vegetables, kept cattle. But then a period of "collectivization" and "dispossession" began: all families that had more than one horse, or one cow, or 10 sheep were considered fists. The kulak families were subject to exile, and in order to avoid this, the family of my great-grandmother's and great-grandfather's parents had to "voluntarily" give one horse and two cows to the newly formed collective farm. Not far from the village of Babino, where great-grandmother and great-grandfather lived, a train of "dispossessed" families from Ukraine was unloaded right in an open field. It was close to winter, and in order to build at least dugouts, they went to the village to ask for a tool for construction. The villagers were forced to join the collective farm. It was not forbidden to keep their own cattle, imposing a tax on this right in 3 liters of milk daily, therefore, like other peasant families, the Bilevs kept a cow and a dozen sheep, which later saved their lives, their children. Not everyone, really.

I read more than 40 books of the chronicle, each book contained from one to seven texts. For these forty books, I'm embarrassed to admit, I burst into tears a hundred times. Not that I am calling for measuring the quality of literature in sobs. And tears welling up not so much from horror and despair, but from something directly opposite. For example, from the strength and honesty of the work of memory.

For example, Ksenia Bileva, whose work is cited above. She talks about how dispossessed people in the Russian North were simply transferred from one village to another, while taking away their cattle, house, yard, courtyard. And in parallel, she notices that there was a field in the neighborhood where dispossessed people from Ukraine were brought. And so they went to the village all autumn to ask for a shovel so that they could at least dig up dugouts for themselves. The fact that the elders tell about this to a child, a schoolboy, the fact that this detail has been preserved through at least three generations in the family tradition is a very strong and striking feature. We see this whole picture as a whole - strangers who were brought to a completely unfamiliar place. A village in which half of the people were taken to who knows where, and the other was brought from who knows where. And a shovel, for which you have to go every day and then you have to give it away, because there is only one on the farm, and it is needed. And people remember this three or four generations later and tell it over and over again.


Petr Sarukhanov / Novaya Gazeta.

But one more thing is important: schoolchildren manage to tell about history in a different way than we are used to hearing. They say: “There were very difficult years. We had to cope with them - go to work on timber rafting, work knee-deep in water, hide from inspectors. And my family survived. "

“In the fall of 1946, my grandmother was born -Tatiana. But in the post-war years, life was not easy. The state forced to buy government loan bonds, which took one of two salaries, and had to pay a tax on livestock. My grandmother said: “Next to the cowshed, my father piled large piles of firewood, and when inspectors came once a month to determine the amount of the tax, we often hid goats and piglets behind these piles. I remember sitting behind the wood, bandaging the goat's muzzle so that it does not bleed, but I myself am both funny and scary. " Gorodischenskaya Svetlana, 16 years old, Severodvinsk

It is this “both funny and scary” that forms the amazing charm of these stories. It's not about how hard life has been. And how we overcame this unbearably hard life. And each of the authors of these works is living evidence that the people had more strength than the power that tried to destroy the race. These are triumphant stories of survival as victory.

The hero of one of the works is a parish priest who served simultaneously in three churches. He was arrested allegedly for the fact that he urged in the sermon not to go to the collective farm. He was arrested, exiled, and died almost immediately. But notice how the young author writes about it. He says that at home the conversation started about this story, after he watched the production based on the story of Boris Vasiliev "Tomorrow was the war." As we remember, the father of the young heroine was also repressed, and then returned. The young author, with the charming, radiant arrogance of a young winner, writes about it this way:

“Having felt on themselves all the hardships of the“ children of the enemies of the people, ”the children of Father Fyodor insisted on his innocence, but they were able to achieve his rehabilitation only in 1989. I am very sorry that Vika Lyuberetskaya, the heroine of Boris Vasiliev's novel "Tomorrow Was the War," turned out to be so weak that instead of fighting for the honor of her father, she decided to die. Perhaps she did this because she was too young and there was no family with whom she could share her misfortune. I am proud that the children of Father Fyodor never gave up, they always supported each other. " Fomin Dmitry

The chronicle turned out to be much wider than a separate area. In the 1920s, there was an exodus from the village to factories, many came to cities from some remote corners, and now their heirs live in the cities of the Arkhangelsk region, a lot of people have arrived. There are wonderful stories of multinational families, where, for example, a policeman dad participated in all the post-Soviet Caucasian wars, and now serves in the traffic police and guards the peace of his country on the roads. This type of pride in my country is also understandable to me. But when you read the texts of the heirs of the Pomor families, they sound in a special way.

Severodvinsk gymnasium14 Imagine a small village on a steep river bank, surrounded by dense forests and impenetrable swamps. The harsh land of courageous people. The land of my ancestors -people of the old faith: Volkov Andrey Ivanovich and Ustinya Efimovna. The village in which they lived was called Lavela. The Pinega River flowed nearby. All lavelites were Old Believers. The places where the Old Believers were located were rich in natural gifts. On the poveta there were always huge barrels with different berries. There were a lot of fish in Pinega, especially pike. Men with nets and sticks up to their chests entered the river and began to beat on the water, frightening and driving the fish into shallow water. There it was literally collected with bare hands and put into baskets. There were so many fish in our northern rivers! Once a year, in the spring, a barge loaded with sugar, flour, grain, which was not in the village, came to the Old Believers in full water. The barns were loaded with these goods to the very top. But often barge traders brought trouble to this village -disease. Since the lavelites had little contact with the outside world, they were susceptible to various infections. Sometimes half the village fell ill. Many died. So it happened with the first husband of my great-great-grandmother, Ustinya Efimovna Volkova. She loved him very much, called him "Basque", that is, beautiful. She was re-married by force to my great-great-grandfather, Andrei Ivanovich Volkov. He was older than her and had a limp since childhood. Nevertheless, three children were born in this marriage. One of them was my great-grandmother, Maria Andreevna Volkova, married -Focht. After the revolution, it turned out that grandfather Andrey -kulak son. They could not send him -and so he lives in a remote northern village. You can't send for logging either -the leg is badly damaged. And then his wife, Ustinya Efimovna, was sent to work. There, the great-great-grandmother received severe rheumatism. She stood all the time in the cold water, rafting the forest down the river. After a year or two of hard logging, she was returned home. This was the fate of the well-to-do peasants. In the homes of the Old Believers, there were always many old icons, and the Volkovs also had ancient church books in gilded and silver frames, decorated with stones. With the advent of Soviet power, my great-grandmother, Maria Andreevna, joined the Communist Party and reached great career heights in Severodvinsk. She was ashamed and scared to admit that her father -an old believer, and even a kulak son. When Andrei Ivanovich died, then all his inheritance -many ancient icons, books and even silver coins of the royal minting -was of no value to her family. It seemed dangerous to them to keep such things with them. At that time, a museum expedition went through the Pinezhsky district, collecting antiquities. Maria Andreevna gave everything, kept only two copper icons, painted with azure. Now these icons are -family heirloom. Now the village of Old Believers lives only in the stories of my grandmother. Listening to them, I seem to touch that life, try it on myself.

I noticed one detail - children often refer to their ancestors with a full detailed title: surname, name, patronymic. “When my great-great-grandfather Prokopy Stepanovich Ladkin ...” At first it seems like some kind of bureaucratic style, and then you see: the young authors also name themselves solemnly and fully. A person belongs to this familia in the high Roman sense, he is the son of his father, and he is the son of his father, and this continuous chain is absolutely unshakable, in it everyone is in their place.

There are several stories of children from shipbuilding families. I am terribly in love with this piece from the text of Ruslan Andreevich Bachin from the collection of students of school No. 4 in Onega:

“My grandmother, Bachina Ninel Grigorievna, said that my great-great-grandfather lived in the village of Kushereka. This village consisted of several "nests". The highest part was called the Mountain, and from it you can see the bay of the White Sea. Among the numerous parts of the village there is a name -Bachin village. The houses in Kusherek face the river. In 1893, the village ranked 4th in terms of population in the county. Once upon a time, at the request of merchants-shipowners, a seaworthy class was opened to get acquainted with seaworthiness. All the villagers' hopes were associated with the sea. The guy, having married, sought to quickly acquire his ship. Shipbuilders more often built coasters or coastal ships. My great-great-grandfather, Mikhail Ivanovich Bachin, said that he harvested timber for construction in the upper reaches of the Kusha River or in the forests of Zolotukha, selected it and branded it himself. Timber was taken out in winter so that after cutting the board would be doused with its own resin and rotted less. I chose a pine tree with dense annual rings. Mast ships and schooners were built at the mouth of the river. Pomor karbas and bots were sewing near the house and lowered into the sea through the big water. My great-grandfather had a sea schooner "Lydia", and the Afonins (wife's parents) -bot "Vision".

I understand that ethnographic work is probably mixed with the family tradition here, but this is the understanding that everything starts with the selection of pine, that when cutting the board must be doused with resin, which is sewn, and not built, like river ships in Central Russia, - I can hear something absolutely genuine about it.

Next year, with a high degree of probability, we will continue the Zhivaya Chronicle in the Arkhangelsk Region and make it in the Smolensk Region, which is also very interesting in a historical sense. I would like to find partners who would help to reach the schools of the south, in Rostov, in Krasnodar. For this, it is necessary that the regional ministries of education provide support to the project. When we launched the competition in the Arkhangelsk region, everyone said: “What schools, what are you talking about! Teachers work from morning to night, fill out new magazines, sit at home at night. " And this is all true. But at the same time, it was the teachers who called us at night, because the comma was incorrectly put in the book, and now they do not know what to do with it. We need to fix this immediately, because the work must go to the competition. They were jealous of each other, suspected if someone had peeped at their idea in order to draw up their own based on its motives. The passion that burns in them fascinates me. But I, of course, understand that if the local ministry does not give such passion, then the competition will be much more difficult.

And we, of course, were terribly lucky that the Deputy Governor for Social Affairs Yekaterina Prokopyeva quickly and ardently joined in. What happened in the Arkhangelsk region should show every administration and every region that they have a chance to write their own lines in a real chronicle, where not only rulers and judges, but also everyone, whom his children and grandchildren remember. And it is not easy to organize such a large-scale project on your own, there are organizational costs: the trips of technical specialists, the work of the jury, the laureates must be taken to the place where the award is taking place. This year we will bring the winners to Moscow for the non / fiction fair. On December 3, in Litkaf, they will tell their readers about how they worked on their books.

I would dream of holding this competition all over the world every year, because the Russian world is not the corner that the Russians managed to fence off with bayonets, but the Russian world is the world that people who speak Russian have lived in. I would be glad to see the Zhivoi Chronicle books written in Russian in Germany, Australia, Israel, and the USA. Today people who speak Russian live there, they bring up their children, who also speak and write Russian. And their memory is also a part of our common memory, which we would like to unite within this project. Every job loaded into the Ridero can be printed at the touch of a button - at least one copy, at least five. Anyone can make a book that will take pride of place on the shelf of the family library.

Young authors write not only about the past. Some pass on the traumatic experience of the 90s: they talk about their grandfather, who was the best specialist at his plant, and then everyone left, and when orders returned in the 2000s, it turned out that there was no one to do them. But the grandfather remained at the factory, he knew how to do everything, now he is the most important, and for his experience and service they wear him in their hands. And even when the bitterness is very fresh, the grandchildren still talk about victory. A person cannot live only with sorrow. A person cannot live without the memory of the past. A person must live in the present day. Since he is alive, his family has conquered all adversity.

My grandmother -Superhero!

Recently on TV, my younger brother Yegorka and I watched a movie about Spider-Man. In the film, people got into various troubles, and the main character saved them. After the film, Yegor tortured me with the question: "How to become a superhero?" I thought a little, and then I said: “Superhero -This is a person who helps everyone and always. Expects nothing in return. He just loves people, loves his homeland. He firmly believes that the main thing in the world isIt is love, loyalty and decency. " Then it was Yegorka's turn to think, he was silent for a long time, and then he sighed and said: "Are there such heroes next to us?" At that moment our grandmother entered the room. I looked at her and realized that a superhero really lives next to us!

No, our grandmother does not have a black belt in karate, does not know how to run with wind speed, and she does not have a special super suit that would protect her from fire and water. She has none of this. So why am I claiming to be a superhero? There are reasons for this.

My grandmother lived a difficult life. She went through an orphanage, a hungry childhood, a serious illness of her mother, lack of money, difficult post-war years. It would seem that those who survived at that time should grow up to be tight-fisted people. But grandma is not like that at all! Everything that she has in her house, in her heart, in her soul, she is ready to give to people.

After graduation, she went to work in a construction site. Hard work for a young girl! How not to break down here, how not to start crying and blame fate for everything, worrying about yourself. But my grandmother overcame everything, thought more about others. This is probably why I went to study to be a teacher and work at school. Just imagine how scary it is to enter a class where students -Your peers, take responsibility for their future on yourself! After all, if you don't explain it that way, will you teach what the guys will do? But my grandmother could! She just sighed and entered the classroom.
