Untie my eyes and I will go myself. Reason to re-read Harms Automatic translate
ST. PETERSBURG. One hundred and ten years since the birth of the writer and poet Daniil Kharms. A man came out of the house and disappeared from that time.
The mismatch between Daniil Ivanovich Yuvachev and the surrounding Soviet reality was fatal. Anglo-and Germanophilism, enshrined in the German PeterSchule, extravagance in clothing, love of black humor and grotesque. How much is needed in order to become a stranger in a society engaged in the construction of an ideal system, not overshadowed by dissent. His pseudonym was a real gift for those who wanted to see in him a class alien element.
In 1931, the main Bolsheviks had a desire to restore order in children’s literature. Too many talented writers and artists turned out to be employed in this field, which became the only outlet for many oppressed and former. One of the meanings of English harm is harm or evil.
At the time of dispersal of the children’s edition of Lenizdat, one of the main pests was Harms. For this he was awarded an arrest and exile in Kursk, together with his "accomplices" -oberiut - Bakhterev, Vvedensky, Tufanov. After returning from prison, the only source of income remained works for the younger generation. He always dealt with this brilliantly and inspirationally with a difficult attitude towards this generation. The adult works of Kharms (poetry, prose, dramaturgy) for his compatriots are practically terra Incognita.
The bitterness and unambiguous allusions to the events taking place in the country in the late 30s in the works of those years: “A man came out of the house”, “So the famine begins” - deprived him of any hope of being printed. The word "hunger" took on a quite tangible meaning for him a few years before his death from him during the blockade.
One of the best writers of the country, who didn’t recognize his talent, died in the psychiatric ward of the prison hospital 02. 02. 1942. The archive was miraculously preserved thanks to the philosopher, writer and art critic Yakov Druskin and the wife of the writer Marina Malich.
