War in the Life and Creative Work of M.A. Sholokhov
16.02.2010The meetings held on February days in the House-Museum of M.A. Sholokhov devoted to the Day of Memory of the great writer have become traditional. On February, 16, there was held a session with the students of the Vyoshenskaya Teacher Training college on the subject: “The Great Patriotic War in the Life and Creative Work of M.A. Sholokhov”.
Its tenor was the words from Sholokhov’s letter dated 1943: “The war intruded upon the destiny of each of us with all its burden”.
The young people spoke about participation of M.A. Sholokhov in the Great Patriotic war, about the works written by him in those hard years, about the history of creating the story “The Fate of a Man”. The museum workers informed them about the readers’ letters to Sholokhov, showed the original materials from the Museum-Reserve funds, illustrations made by the famous artists Y. Rebrov, O. Vereiskiy, Kukryniksy (M. Kupriyanov, P. Krylov, N. Sokolov).
The students were enthusiastic discussing the history of the film “The Fate of a Man”, shot in 1959 after Sholokhov’s story by the film director S.F. Bondarchuk who starred as Andrey Sokolov. In 2010 it will be the 90th birth anniversary of Serghey Fyodorovich, and one of the session pages was devoted to his creative work.
Having watched the fragments of the film “the Fate of a Man”, the young people visited the writer’s study, where the story had been written.
The Museum-Reserve and the Teacher Training college named after M.A. Sholokhov have been fruitfully cooperating for many years.
We are grateful to Lyudmila Antonovna Konkina for her help in holding the session.
