Rzhevsky Alexey Andreevich (1737 - 1804, St. Petersburg) - real privy councilor, senator, chamberlain, writer;

Deputy Director (V.G. Orlova) during the presidency of K.G. Razumovsky (1771-1773)

Aleksey Alekseevich Rzhevsky was born on February 19, 1737 into a noble family of midshipman, participant in the siege of Ochakov Andrei Ivanovich Rzhevsky (1711-1737/1741) and Ekaterina Ionovna (née Velyaminova).

Rzhevsky - an old Russian noble family, descended from the Smolensk princes, descendants of Prince Rurik. The Rzhevsky family is included in the genealogy book of the Voronezh, Kostroma, Kursk, Moscow, Oryol, Ryazan, St. Petersburg, Tambov and Tver provinces.

For a long time, the family estate of the Rzhevskys was the village of Selikhovo, Bolkhovsky district, Oryol province. The first owner of the estate was Ivan Ivanovich Rzhevsky (1615-1678), who began his military service in Bolkhov. He devoted most of his life to defending the Fatherland. For faithful service in 1669 I.I. Rzhevsky became a duma nobleman. Ivan Rzhevsky had three sons: Alexei, Timofey and Ivan - each of which gave rise to a new branch of an old family. And his great-granddaughter, the daughter of Yuri Alekseevich, Sara Yuryevna Rzhevskaya (1721-1779) is the grandmother of A.S. Pushkin on the maternal side.

In the XVIII century. Selikhovo was considered the possession of the great-grandson of I.I. Rzhevsky, warrant officer Andrei Ivanovich Rzhevsky. Then the village passed to his son Alexei Rzhevsky.

A.A. Rzhevsky began his service career in 1749 as a military officer (guards non-commissioned officer), but then switched to civilian service. He served under Peter III, whom he sang in his odes for liberal reforms and especially for granting letters to the nobles. Subsequently, he became no less enthusiastic singer of Catherine II.

A.A. Rzhevsky was a popular writer of his time. Rzhevsky began publishing poetry in the late 1750s. Most of his poems appeared in the 1760s in the journals of M.M. Kheraskov "Useful Entertainment" and "Free Hours", where he collaborated simultaneously with A.V. and S.V. Naryshkin, V.I. Maikov, I.F. Bogdanovich (later, in 1783, Rzhevsky at his own expense published Bogdanovich's famous poem "Darling"). Was friendly with I.I. Dmitriev and G.R. Derzhavin. In his literary direction, Rzhevsky joined the group of A.P. Sumarokov, with whom he was well acquainted, and at the first stage of his work he strongly imitated him. Rzhevsky introduced a number of complex literary devices into poetry: a period poem constructed like a riddle, a poem read with a different arrangement of lines, an ode from monosyllabic words, etc., emphasized tricks of style.

Rzhevsky's literary activity consisted, first of all, in his participation in the Moscow edition of "Translations from the Encyclopedia", where his translations were published. The following works by Rzhevsky were published separately: On the birthday of Empress Catherine II, 1763, "On the new year 1764", Ode on the day of accession to the throne of Empress Catherine II, 1762, to the Minister of Police A.D. Balashov, 1812, "Ode on the accession to the throne of Emperor Alexander I, 1801. In total, A.A. Rzhevsky published more than 200 works - stanzas, elegies, odes, sonnets, rondos, parables, madrigals, riddles, epigrams.

Poet friends and poetry lovers expected that Rzhevsky's talent would mature and grow stronger over the years. But in 1763 his name disappeared from the pages of magazines: he stopped writing. This year, a new empress, Catherine II, ascended the Russian throne. The path to the ranks was opened to the descendant of an old noble family of the specific princes Rzhevsky, and he, leaving the poet's pen, rushed into the whirlpool of court life.

In 1767, Rzhevsky received the title of chamber junker and took part in the Commission on the drafting of a new Code, as a deputy of the city of Vorotynsk, Moscow province. At the suggestion of Marshal Bibikov, he participated in the private Commission "on the police"; December 31, 1768 was appointed Advisor to the Board of Banks for the exchange of government banknotes.

From May 29, 1771 to October 25, 1773 A.A. Rzhevsky was vice-director of the Academy of Sciences, and in 1772, when its director, Count V. G. Orlov, went abroad, he performed his position.

A.A. Rzhevsky played a prominent role in the history of Russian Freemasonry. He joined the order at the end of November 1782; his order name was "Eques e bona spe"; he belonged to the "Latana" lodge of the Wilhelmsbad organization, to the theoretical degree of the Solomonic Sciences. There is evidence (by Pekasky) that he was a Rosicrucian. Through Rzhevsky, relations mainly took place between the St. Petersburg and Moscow Masons. On April 26, 1783, Rzhevsky received the title of prefect of the St. Petersburg Masonic Lodge, but in September of the same year he resigned this position, remaining the overseer of the "theoretical degree".

Gradually, Rzhevsky moved into the forefront of statesmen. November 24, 1783 A.A. Rzhevsky was granted the rank of senator and promoted to the rank of Privy Councilor.

A.A. Rzhevsky took an active part in the work of the Russian Academy, of which he was elected a member at its opening on October 21, 1783. In parallel with the St. Petersburg Academy of Sciences, the Russian Academy began to work, which was created in St. Petersburg by Catherine II and Princess E.R. Dashkova, modeled on the French Academy, as a center for the study of the Russian language and literature. The main result of her work was the publication of the Russian Academic Dictionary. In 1841, the Russian Academy was abolished, and some of its members merged into the Academy of Sciences, forming the Department of the Russian Language and Literature.

For Academic Dictionary A.A. Rzhevsky prepared all concepts for the letter "B"; on behalf of the Academy, he gave a detailed review of the translation of the Henriade. Shortly before his death, he sent to the Academy his idyll: "To the Nevsky Muses."

Since 1794 A.A. Rzhevsky held an elective position, then a very honorary one - a conscientious judge in St. Petersburg.

A.A. Rzhevsky was awarded several distinctions: on September 22, 1785 he received the Anninsky ribbon (Imperial Order of St. Anna); September 5, 1799 - Order of Alexander Nevsky.

Family: A.A. Rzhevsky was married twice: the first time (since 1766) to Alexandra Fedotovna Kamenskaya (1740-1769), the sister of the famous Field Marshal Kamensky, she died in childbirth on April 7, 1769, and three months later her newborn son died; for the second time (since 1777) - on Glafira Ivanovna Alymova, one of Catherine II's most beloved pupils of the first graduate of the Smolny Institute.

Children: Glafira Ivanovna became the mother of three sons Alexander, Pavel, Konstantin and daughter Maria. Her children were named in honor of the persons of the reigning House, in the circle of which her secular life passed. The eldest son of the Rzhevskys, Alexander (1781–1807), adjutant wing, colonel, died in battle. Pavel Rzhevsky (1784–1852), captain of the Semenovsky Life Guards, then the Hussar Regiment, later a chamberlain, a real state adviser, also left no heirs. Daughter Maria (1778-1866) married the chamberlain Nikolai Svistunov and became the mother of the Decembrist Pyotr Svistunov, who was serving his sentence in the Chita prison after the uprising on Senate Square.

The family estate of the Rzhevskys - Selikhovo passed to the youngest son Konstantin (1788-1837), a real state councilor, chamberlain, holder of the orders of St. Anna II degree and Vladimir IV degree, lieutenant, participant in the Patriotic War of 1812.

Alexey Alekseevich Rzhevsky died on April 23, 1804 in St. Petersburg. He was buried at the Lazarevsky cemetery of the Alexander Nevsky Lavra.

Subsequently, he became no less enthusiastic singer of Catherine II.

In 1767, Rzhevsky received the title of chamber junker and took part in the Commission on the drafting of a new Code, as a deputy of the city of Vorotynsk, Moscow province, and also, at the suggestion of Marshal Bibikov, in the private Commission "on the police"; December 31, 1768 was appointed Advisor to the Board of Banks for the exchange of government banknotes. May 29, 1771 to October 25, 1773 Rzhevsky was vice-director of the Academy of Sciences, and in 1772, after the departure of its director Count V. G. Orlov, he performed his position. July 10, 1775 was appointed President of the Medical College. In 1783, on November 24, Rzhevsky was granted the rank of senator with promotion to the rank of Privy Councilor and in 1785 received the Anninsky Ribbon (September 22); from 1794, he held the honorary elective position of Conscientious Judge, on April 5, 1797, he was promoted to active privy councilors, and on September 4, 1800, he was dismissed from service; died with the Order of Alexander Nevsky (since March 5, 1799), April 23, 1804; buried at the Lazarevsky cemetery of the Alexander Nevsky Lavra.

Rzhevsky played a prominent role in the history of Russian Freemasonry and was an outstanding writer of his time. He joined the order at the end of November 1782; his order name was "Eques e bona spe"; he belonged to the "Latana" lodge of the Wilhelmsbad organization, to the theoretical degree of the Solomonic Sciences. Finally, he is said to have been a Rosicrucian (see Pekarsky). Through Rzhevsky, relations mainly took place between the St. Petersburg and Moscow Masons. On April 26, 1783, Rzhevsky received the title of prefect of the St. Petersburg Masonic Lodge, but in September of the same year he resigned this position, remaining the overseer of the "theoretical degree".

Rzhevsky's literary activity was expressed primarily in participation in the Moscow edition of "Translations from the Encyclopedia", where his translations were published: 1) History, 2) Roman clothes, 3) Hammock. Secondly, Rzhevsky took a rather active part in the works of the Russian Academy, a member which he was proclaimed at its opening on October 21, 1783. For the Academic Dictionary, he compiled the letter "B"; on behalf of the Academy, he gave a detailed review of the translation of the Henriade. Shortly before his death, he sent to the Academy his idyll: "To the Nevsky Muses" ("Compositions and translations of the Russian Academy", part V, p. 45). history of Kyiv; this drama was staged at the court theater in 1769 and was a success. "This tragedy," writes Novikov, "does credit to its writer: it was composed in accordance with the rules of the theatre, the plot and continuation are arranged very well, the characters are strongly sustained, there are many theatrical performances ...; this tragedy is revered among the best in the Russian theater." However, we also have a somewhat different opinion about this tragedy: “This play, despite several good places, did not stay in our theater; for now we are becoming more choosy and are not content with any performance” (the author of the article in German “News of some Russian writers", see "Materials" by Efremov). Rzhevsky was especially popular in his time as a lyric poet. He published his rather numerous parables, elegies, stanzas, sonnets, rondos, and so on. in "Monthly Writings", "Industrious Bee", "Free Hours" and especially in "Useful Amusement" (vols. I, II, III, IV, V).

“All these poems,” says the same Novikov: “and especially his odes, parables and fairy tales are very good and express the sharpness of his mind and ability for poetry. His poetry is pure, his style is flowing and pleasant, his thoughts are sharp, and the images are strong and free " ... In this assessment, as, it seems, in the assessment of Rzhevsky's tragedy, Novikov hardly proved his critical gift: Rzhevsky's odes are below average and, of course, cannot be compared with the odes of his friend, the singer Felitsa; parables and fairy tales are the same. Some of his stanzas and elegies can be called his best lyrical works. Their predominant motives are: sadness about the inconstancy and vanity of everything earthly, disappointment in life and a thirst for death, as complete peace, and finally, the torment of unsatisfied or deceived love.

"Our age is filled with vanity,

We do not see bliss anywhere in it;

We are the only dream

Enticed, we run from the truth,

exclaims the poet with sad feeling. Or in another verse:

"Oh, life, oh vanity! Or shall we suffer forever?

Suffer and not see that the light is this chain of torment?

Not a century: death can give us freedom ... ".

However, the poet finds himself "modus vivendi":

"In one peace of mind

Our happiness consists

he says and clearly indicates how it can be acquired amid worldly vanity and suffering: human life is impermanent; a person can be compared to a flower, and therefore:

"Be moderate in happiness, beware of change:

Repentance for the deeds that have already passed is too late.

Such is the life philosophy of the poet: in it, of course, echoes of Masonic views are heard. But, nevertheless, in contemporary poetry, these motifs are undoubtedly peculiar and stand out for their pessimistic coloring against the loudly bright background of the then solemn lyrics. In "Son of the Father." In 1817, his poetic "Answer to A. V. Khrapovitsky" was published (part 40, No. 36, pp. 140-143).

Rzhevsky was married twice: the first time (since February 19, 1766) to Alexandra Fedotovna Kamenskaya (born August 19, 1740, died April 7, 1769), sister of the famous Field Marshal Kamensky; in the second - on Glafira Ivanovna Alymova, one of Ekaterina's most beloved pupils of the first graduate of the Smolny Institute. This second marriage was very happy. Derzhavin in 1780 dedicated an ode to the Rzhevsky spouses: "The Happy Family", in which he sang their marital happiness. Rzhevsky and Derzhavin were generally friends.

The following works by Rzhevsky were published separately: 1) For the birthday of Empress Catherine II, St. Petersburg. 1763, 2) "For the new year 1764" M., 3) Ode on the day of accession to the throne of Empress Catherine II, St. Petersburg. 1762, 4) to the Minister of Police A. D. Balashov, M. 1812 and St. Petersburg. 1812, 5) "Ode on the accession to the throne of Emperor Alexander I, St. Petersburg. 1801.

Rzhevsky, Alexey Andreevich

(Polovtsov)

Rzhevsky, Alexey Andreevich

Popular in the 18th century lyric poet, member of the Russian Academy, prominent freemason. He came from an old noble family. His short-term literary activity bears the imprint of aristocratic dilettantism. A brilliant court career during the reign of Catherine II drowned out the writer in R.: for the rest of his life he wrote only a few odes and two tragedies: "Charm" and "Smerdius" (staged on stage, were not printed).

R.'s poetic heritage is distinguished by a wealth of genres: he wrote odes - solemn and anacreontic, elegies, idylls, stanzas, sonnets, eclogues, fables, parables, etc. In his literary direction, R. adjoined Sumarokov's group and at the first stage of his work strongly imitated him. R.'s odes, dedicated to the emperors whose reigns he survived, are stereotyped; his best works are stanzas and elegies. They are dominated by motifs of unrequited and yearning love and sadness about the impermanence and vanity of everything earthly. Lyrics R. is always connected with didactics and is an echo of his Masonic views. The preaching of rationalistic virtue, moderation and internal self-improvement is combined with the recognition of the inevitability of desires and passions; true bliss gives only peace of mind, available to a person at all, without distinction, steps of the social ladder; the ultimate peace and freedom comes from death.

The inner concentration of some part of R.'s lyrics sets it apart against the bravura background of the solemn poetry of his era; however, it is not rich in images and colors. The ideological emptiness led R. to the predominance of form over content in his work. R. introduced a number of complex literary devices into poetry: a period poem constructed like a riddle, a poem read with a different arrangement of lines, an ode from monosyllabic words, and so on.

R.'s poems were published in the magazine. The Industrious Bee and Monthly Essays, Useful Amusement and Leisure Hours; were not published as a separate collection.

Ode, collected from monosyllabic words

How did I begin to know your gaze,
Since then, my spirit has been tearing up with passion;
Since then, the whole fold is my dream;
Began to know since I power.

Even though I sleep, I see your eyes in a dream,
And in a dream he tears my spirit;
Oh, oh, how sweet he is to me!
But what is it to me, my light?

He's cute, but I'm just torn:
How I'm torn, you know that.
Every hour I try to be nice;
Give me at least a breath in return.

On the banks of flowing rivers
The shepherd told me taco rivers:
"I have not seen more charming than yours, I will become,
Your eyes, face and eyelids.
Know how long the century will last
It is true that I, my light, believe me, I will love you.

Sighs his eyes are ripe,
Mind was still immature
My thought agreed with that flattering thought.
I said: "You will be mine,
You are not my face in tears,
Just be faithful to me if I'm worth it."

Passion for flattery today exchange,
And he doesn't think about me.
Oh, infidel! now you have become captivated by another.
He said to me: "Go away,
And away to yourself another."
How unbearably I suffer today, I am torn and whine.

Have questions?
