200 years ago, Alexander Nikolaevich Ostrovsky was born - a man who changed the Russian theater. We can rightfully say that today a lot in drama and directorial work is built on the principles laid down by him.
A wonderful playwright, one of the creators of the Russian stage repertoire, a man whose plays were clearly revealed to the audience and the life of merchants, bourgeois. This usual characteristic is not to exhaust the multifaceted activity of such a talented artist.
It may seem amazing, but A.N. Ostrovsky equally successfully collaborated in the Slavophil Muscovite in the liberal "contemporary", he was loved by both soils and Westerners. How was it possible? Did this playwright have any social, political principles and sympathy? In this case, the answer "he first of all tried to follow the Truth of Truth," despite a fair amount of banality, it would be completely true. It was the realism of Ostrovsky’s works that was the most important reason for their popularity and good attitude towards Alexander Nikolaevich. And if you add the author’s humor, the ability to masterfully build a plot intrigue, it becomes obvious that his plays were doomed to success.
At the same time, today only a few know that Ostrovsky began as a direct follower of Gogol principles in literature. His "Notes of the Zamoskvoretsky Resident" is an undoubted essay in the spirit of the notorious "natural school" (Say, the overcoats of the central character The future great playwright pays the most serious attention) Well, if we recall that V.I. Dahl, then the landmarks of the Ostrovsky-literature will be indicated more clearly.
However, not all contemporaries equally enthusiastically accepted this outstanding, as we understand today, writer. Ostrovsky was reproached with inattention to the life of the educated strata of society. For example, the critic Yu.I. Aichenwald, despite the sensitivity and subtlety of judgments, was sure that the plays coming out of the pen of this author were short-lived. The types of Ostrovsky, Aichenwald claimed, are a thing of the past. The famous critic was mistaken - the characters captured by the great playwright did not remain in the distant past, they are still present in our reality. And the problems that Ostrovsky raised in now the old days still have been worried.
"Alien Soul of the Potomka", - the heroes of Ostrovsky say. But the author himself managed to reveal the souls of his contemporaries to us. With pity and compassion, he peered into human hearts
