Biography of Evgenia Nechaev

Cold, anxiety and steppe weeds. It is no accident that the epigraph for the publication was lines from the military composition “Eh, Roads”. This is a beloved song of a person whose name is familiar with the Pskovites: an honorary citizen of the city of Pskov, a participant in the Great Patriotic War, a talented writer, an unusually restrained, hardworking and courageous person Evgeny Pavlovich Nechaev.

Evgeny Pavlovich Nechaev was born in Bashkiria. I never forgot about my small homeland, and the small homeland remembered him. In the press of the Bashkir city of Birsk, they told about him: “The most terrible memory of the war remained for him the death of the front in the Crimea.” For nine days of battles, in May, there were practically three of our armies. From the fighters of his batteries, only then he gave himself a word, unless, of course, he survived, to write about all the fighters to fight together.

The most joyful event occurred on April 30 in the year. Berlin. Suddenly there was a scout of the scout: “Comrade Major! Comrade Major! Ours in the Reichstag! This happened a few days before the official rise of the flag. Evgeny Pavlovich left his surname on the walls of the defeated den of fascism. There are two or more pounds here. In my battery, all the guys are strong, tall, some above two meters.

And burying such heroes is no worse. ” So the topic of war became central in his literary heritage. His pen owns the novels, novels and stories about the war: “About those who defended their homeland”, “Battery”, “Fire and wheels”, “Private third hundred”, “Under the Mount Metelikha”, “On the earth scorched”. In every book - the fate of ordinary Soviet people who rose to fight the enemy and defeated him.

In each of its rows - pain and experiences and for the native Pskov. Here's how he writes about the city in the novel “On Earth scorched”: “The city lived. The overturned backbone and the flattened three -year -old occupation, tormented and burned, he hardly raised himself, so that from the rocky shore, framed by an ancient wall, to be inclined to the river and see his reflection of his Pskov - a strong city, a city that always remembers: "Whoever comes to us, from the sword and perish." Being back in Berlin, Nechaev began to put his front -line entries in order.

In the year, it was transferred to Pskov. With the rank of lieutenant colonel, he resigned and took up journalistic activities. He worked in the Pskovskaya Pravda newspaper, on the radio. Gradually, Evgeny Nechaev began to publish his military stories. In the year, the publishing house of the newspaper Pskovskaya Pravda published a collection entitled "On those who defended their homeland." Then his novel “Under Mount Metelikha” comes out.

This is a narrative about the fate of the three generations of his native village, about its people who have fought for a new life, who stood up from the first days of the war to defend the country. In general, the first book he had conceived was the story “Battery”, on which he began to work in Berlin. But her publication took 33 years. The publishers did not dare to release it in any way.

He himself passed all the stages of the war, who experienced all her hardships, horrors and moods, the author, not hiding the tragedy, feelings of ordinary fighters, described those events, of which he was a participant. Nechaev presented 11 versions of this book to the publishing house, during which time three editors were replaced. And only in the year it was printed.

Then his new story appeared - “Private Third Hundred”. The heroes of these books are batteries. He retained them all in his memory: officers and ordinary, from the trays of shells, charging to drivers and tractor drivers. All of them were alive in his books, with their common and individual character traits. And the final work of this cycle was the novel “Fire and Wheels”, which reflects such a difficult, sometimes seemingly incredible military feat of artillerymen, their stamina, heroism, their experiences.

And in the battery, then the Nechaev division were several hundred people. And everyone remembered Evgeny Pavlovich by name, patronymic. And this is characteristic only of the big writer. His books are permeated with truthfulness, the reliability of what is happening, since the author himself went this path with his heroes. It is important for Nechaev to show the fate of each person in its conjugation with the history of Pskov, the history of the country.

Show a person, his inner, spiritual world, most fully revealed in the decisive moment. And he succeeded: the Soviet reader recognized himself in his heroes, experienced pain with them for his homeland and fear for loved ones and dear people. The war in the image of Evgeny Nechaev is work: everyday labor, hard, bloody, but vital work, and the victory depended on how each in its place is fulfilled in its place.

The Great Patriotic War is a difficult topic, but Nechayev also has a bright Tolik, even in the most terrible times he remembered the beautiful: “A peaceful morning spread over the country.The smiling sun is about to roll out because of the burdened clouds, it would spray generously with gold into the fields and a rifle, it would sparkle in every dew it seemed that it was all faded.

And it will be. " Evgeny Pavlovich Nechaev - the journalist today the literary heritage of E. Nechaev is for all of us an example of courage and persistence of the spirit, fidelity in friendship, honesty and human nobility. Behind these lines lies the voice of a person who has seen a lot in his life, firsthand familiar with her difficulties, sorrows and joys. In many ways, the atmosphere of this novel echoes the publications of Yevgeny Pavlovich in periodicals and collections.

In one of the numbers of Pskov Pravda, there is an essay “Turn of Fate” for the year, in which we see the memories of how Evgeny Pavlovich appeared in Pskov, in the editorial office of the Pskovskaya Pravda newspaper: “In the mid -fifties, the editorial office of Pskov Pravda appeared, a densely knocked person with an officer refueling. He barely managed to remove epaulets.

As he was in the overcoat, he came to the editor. He answered the questions clearly, in a military person:-No, he didn’t work in the newspaper-no, did not write articles-education? The artillery school graduated before the war - and in what rank did they go to the reserve, if not a secret? A pause has come. The journalist carefully looked at the man in officer uniforms. So Evgenia Pavlovich was hired by the correspondent in the newspaper Pskov Pravda.

His journalist colleagues were perplexed, why to Lt. Col. to begin to master a new profession from the basics. But then, seeing with what perseverance and perseverance the former front -line soldier mastered the journalistic profession, how he was all brighter, when his material went to the newspaper page, as melted the dirt on lanels, trying to complete the editorial task on time, he would understand that he would be a journalist.

And he became them. Work in the newspaper was far from easy, but very interesting. Evgeny Pavlovich respected colleagues for a calm, even character, honesty and justice, he was very reliable, quiet in appearance, but a very firm person in his beliefs. Few knew about his cherished dream, the performance of which he worked even at night, remaining in the editorial office of the newspaper.

This dream is a book about front -line comrades, about Battery every image of this book suggests that all their lives these boys were prepared for any tests to protect the Fatherland. Equally, like Evgeny Pavlovich himself. For thirteen years of work, journalist Evgeny Pavlovich wrote more than a hundred articles, essays, reviews and excerpts from artistic texts.

He published mostly his works: excerpts from novels, stories and novels by cycles or once: the story “Operational map”, “Autograph of the scout”, “At the walls of the city of Glory, an excerpt from the story“ Battery ”, the story“ Strict people ”,“ Western ”, etc. Signed modestly -“ Evgeny Nechaev, a writer, a participant in the Great Patriotic War, the Great Patriotic War - the main theme publications, but not the only one.

The work of young readers, prose and poems that came to the editorial office of Pskov Pravda from all over the Pskov region were especially trembling and expensive for him. He read these texts, made reviews and wrote reviews and reviews. Among his publications we can recall: “Let's talk about the story: a review of the stories sent by young readers to the editorial office of the newspaper“ Young Leninets ”,“ Dear of Creativity ”,“ Poems of Beginners ”and“ Words from the Soul ”: about the verses of readers dedicated to the XXI Congress of the CPSU”, “For high skill: about the fifth-day inter-regional seminar of writers-drama, which was held in the dramators.

Pskov ”,“ To raise a creative shift ”: about young writers and poets of the region.” Evgeny Pavlovich always spoke about the work of young readers very well, never allowing himself a bad word: “Many of them are imperfect in their literary virtues, they have traces of haste or ignorance of the characteristics of literary labor,” he wrote in one of his reviews, but the very fact that the poem wrote the ordinary collective farmer or a silence is a true sign of growth of culture and so it was in the same way.

For everything he wrote about: “It is necessary to see the great in the small one,” he said. And in this small, the work of readers, Evgeny Pavlovich, was able to see the grain of the innermost thought: “Devotion for the work, love of the motherland, the depth of experiences and firm confidence in the justice of Lenin’s teachings - this is what leads with a pen of novice writers.” And it doesn’t matter whether these people will become professional poets in the future, what is happening now, at this moment that “a person is taught to think with literary images, increases his culture, enriches the language,” in short-develops and develops the world around himself.

And this is expensive.In addition, in his notes and publications, Yevgeny Pavlovich gave useful, wise advice to beginner authors, conveyed to their hearts his innermost thoughts about life, about writers, about writing: “All the material used by the writer is in the word,” he said, “the writer should be at the same time as an artist, a sculptor, and a composer, and the Pskov land can be proud of the Pskov lands.

This. Unfortunately, our life is fleeting and not endless, the surrounding people leave us, some are imperceptibly, and some leave a particle of themselves. One wise man, known to the Pskovs as the keeper of the Pushkin Reserve, Semen Stepanovich Gamichenko, once said: “When people leave, after them there are things that silently testify to the most ancient truth - that they are more durable than people.” We will continue this idea: “When the writers leave, after them the word remains in the books they wrote, in the lines addressed to us, the covenants, thoughts from Evgeny Pavlovich, we have a wise, sincere word of honor, nobility and wisdom of life.
