Vladimir Svyatoslavich (Red Sun, Great, Baptist, Saint) is a Russian prince who, according to the chronicles, was born somewhere around 960 and died on 07/15/1015. He accomplished many great things in his life. One of them is the one that the descendants still remember, the Baptism of Russia. He was baptized under the name Vasily.
He became prince of Novgorod in 970, and in 978 he conquered the throne of the prince of Kyiv. He decided to christen Russia, choosing Christianity from all world religions. He demanded Anna of Byzantium as his wife from the Byzantine emperors, and in order to marry her, he was forced to undergo a rite of baptism.

In addition to the activities of the performer, Vysotsky also performed in the theater. Among his roles was Dostoevsky's Svidrigailov, and Chekhov's Lopakhin, and even Hamlet. Vladimir wrote songs for many performances and plays. For example, for "Pugachev", where he played Khlopusha, he wrote the song "Well, Kuzma?".
However, he went down in history as a performer of songs written by himself with accompaniment to a seven-string guitar. Takes second place among the idols of people of the XX century. Only Yuri Gagarin was able to overtake him.

Initially, he ceded the principality to Svyatopolk Izyaslavich so as not to start a war with him. An important milestone in the fate of Vladimir Vsevolodovich was the defeat of the Polovtsy and the liberation of Russia from their oppression. After the death of Svyatopolk, he became the Grand Duke, suppressing an uprising in Kyiv for this. During his reign, Russia significantly increased its influence on neighboring states. This was facilitated by the war with Byzantium, the expulsion of the Pechenegs and the competent conduct of foreign policy.

THE BEST MOVIE MECHANISM
Aleksey Batalov played many stellar film roles, but the most beloved by the people is the intelligent locksmith Gosha from the Oscar-winning film “Moscow Does Not Believe in Tears”. Theater and film actor, director, public figure, People's Artist of the USSR was born on November 20, 1928 in a respected Vladimir family. His grandfather - a descendant of Polish aristocrats - was under the tsar the chief inspector of forests in the province, his grandmother was a doctor, to whom the whole city wanted to get. To give birth to a son, Batalov's mother - theatrical actress Nina Olshevskaya - came to them.
Batalov was destined to become a star - eight of his paternal relatives worked at the Moscow Art Theater at once. Since 1954, he began acting in films, worked mainly at Lenfilm. The first role is a young worker Alexei Zhurbin in the film "Big Family". The most famous works are the role of Boris Borozdin in the film The Cranes Are Flying, the physicist Dmitry Gusev in the film Nine Days of One Year, Gurov in The Lady with the Dog, Fedya Protasov in The Living Corpse, and she is the role of Georgy Ivanovich in the melodrama "Moscow does not believe in tears".
The busy artist rarely visited his hometown, but he always remembered him - the residents of his house on Bolshaya Moskovskaya Street still remember how he easily drove to them on the white Volga at the very peak of fame.
WRITER FROM THE LOG CUT
Russian writer and poet Vladimir Soloukhin was born in the village of Alepino into a peasant family. In 1942 he graduated from an engineering school with a degree in instrumental mechanics. During the Great Patriotic War he served in the protection of the Kremlin. He first published poems in the Vladimir newspaper "Call", then in "Komsomolskaya Pravda". In 1951 he graduated from the Literary Institute. M. Gorky, to do literature professionally.
For the sake of the book "Vladimir country roads" in 1956, Soloukhin traveled 635 kilometers from the Kirzhach River to Vyazniki in 41 days (321 on foot, 227 by car, 17 by horseback, 70 by boat). He believed that good books are born in travels, in meetings with living people. The travel diary gradually turned into a lyrical story about non-capital Russia. For 10 days the writer lived in his native Alepino, about the inhabitants of which he wrote a separate book, "A Drop of Dew".
He was advised to go to the village of Glotovo in the Yuryev-Polsky district. It turned out that a wooden church of wonderful beauty, similar to a ship, has been preserved there. The writer puts forward the idea: "We need to create (for example, in Suzdal) a museum of wooden architecture. Bring the surviving windmills, churches, the most beautiful huts from everywhere!". And the first exhibit of the new Suzdal museum of wooden architecture was just that church from Glotov. He died metropolitan celebrity, and buried - in his native Alepino.
ANDREY RUBLEV'S HEIR
In 1960, in Moscow, at the first republican exhibition "Soviet Russia", the founders of the "Vladimir School of Painting" - Kim Britov, Vladimir Yukin and Valery Kokurin - announced themselves together for the first time. Boris Frantsuzov, a native of Kameshkovo, raised the national theme just as powerfully. He is a graphic artist, his genre is etching (a kind of engraving, the imprint of which is made from a pattern cut on a metal plate).
In search of a special Vladimir style of painting, patriotic artists relied on the deep traditions of the art of their land. Icons, Mstera lacquer miniatures, homespun rugs, patchwork quilts, Vladimir embroidery became the source of their inspiration. The result was a fusion of folk culture, coming from the depths of centuries, and the heights of the Russian landscape.
The plots of the works of all four were Vladimir villages, regional towns, bazaars, old streets, discreet fields and copses - everything that quiet provincial life is full of, retaining its bright originality and beauty. Today, their works are kept in the Tretyakov Gallery and the Russian Museum, as well as in a number of other domestic and foreign museums and private collections.
GREAT MUSIC TEACHER
People's Artist of Russia Eduard Markin was born in Voronezh, studied in Odessa and Novosibirsk, and became attached to the soul - to Vladimir. The world-famous choral maestro not so long ago even refused to take the post of rector of one of the Conservatories, so as not to leave his pupils, choristers, whose number today is already many hundreds.
Markin's recognized achievement is the creation of the Theater of Choral Music, and then the Center for Choral Music of Vladimir-Suzdal Russia (1992). Now, under the wing of a professor at Vladimir University, there are several choirs at once - from the boys' chapel and children's choirs to mature performers. All of them successfully tour in Russia and abroad.
FROM "SOLOVIEV" TO "ZARECHNAYA STREET"
Dozens of favorite songs, which many today consider nameless folk, were written by Alexei Fatyanov from Vyaznikova. He took a lot in childhood from the breathtaking beauty of these places, so the main sources of Fatyanov’s song and poetic gift do not have to be looked for for a long time - they are in the Vladimir region: , soul - I'll give everything! During the war, he wrote love and comic songs all the time (he had the right - he fought in the penal battalion, was wounded twice), he knew from his own experience that the soldiers needed them especially: “The soldier dreams of brown eyes ...”, “I will return to throw into your hands with a branch of lilac - love", "Blood rushes to the temples - what a beauty", "No other in the world will replace you forever."
One hit followed another: “We haven’t been at home for a long time”, “Where are you, my garden?”, “Because we are pilots”, “Golden lights”, “Where are you now, fellow soldiers?”, “Sings accordion over Vologda”, “On your porch”. And also - “I won’t brag, my dear”, “My Chamomile”, “Road-road ...”, “Evening on the roadstead” and “Nightingales” - the favorite song of Marshal Georgy Zhukov. The film "Spring on Zarechnaya Street" with Fatyanov's song is one of the box office record holders in the USSR. "On a sunny meadow" - the annual festival in Vyazniki is named after this song, to which all the stars of the country are considered an honor to come.
"FATHER" OF LIEUTEN RZHEVSKY
In 1962 it came out, and Eldar Ryazanov's film comedy "The Hussar Ballad" with Rzhevsky - Yuri Yakovlev, and Shurochka - Larisa Golubkina is still being shown with the same colossal success. The author of the wonderful play in verse "A long time ago" is our fellow countryman, a native of Murom Alexander Gladkov.
He was born in the family of an engineer, and in his native city on the Oka, he fell in love forever with the era of the heroes of the novel "War and Peace", which his mother read to him. Having become a playwright, he himself spoke about this era in the rarest genre of “heroic comedy”. It was first played in 1941 - in the besieged Leningrad. For years she walked on the theatrical stages of the country, enjoying great popularity, until she was born a second time - on the screen.
Famous people from various fields of culture and sports were born and lived in our region. You don't have to look far for examples:
Vladimirov, Yuri Kuzmich, Zhukovsky, Nikolai Egorovich, Zworykin, Vladimir Kozmich, Konstantinov, Pyotr Alexandrovich, Kostin, Boris Alekseevich, Milovsky, Mikhail Pavlovich, Savarinsky, Fyodor Petrovich, Smirnov, Stanislav Alekseevich, Soloukhin, Vladimir Alekseevich, Speransky, Mikhail Mikhailovich, Stoletov, Alexander Grigorievich, Stoletov, Nikolai Grigorievich, Fomin, Nikolai Sergeevich, Shmakov, Pavel Vasilievich, Shumilovsky, Nikolai Nikolaevich.
We call the founders, discoverers, pioneers the figures of science who were the first to set foot on previously unknown paths of knowledge. If we turn to the lists of scientists who came out of our Vladimir region, we can see the names of the most prominent initiators.
Ingenious discoveries in the field of physics were made by A. G. Stoletov; his works helped our contemporaries come to new amazing discoveries in science and technology. The scientist N. E. Zhukovsky was the founder of modern hydro- and aircraft mechanics; Vladimir Ilyich Lenin called him the "father of Russian aviation".
A scientist of a completely different field of knowledge, V.S. Sopikov, a native of Suzdal, is referred to in encyclopedias as the "father of Russian bibliography." MP Lazarev, admiral of the Russian fleet, was the discoverer of a new sixth continent on our planet - Antarctica.
N. Sofronov's essay tells about three such initiators, about three natives of the Vladimir land - D. I. Vinogradov, the founder of porcelain production in Russia, about Academician I. M. Gubkin, the founder of Soviet petroleum geology, and GT. V. Shmakov, a scientist in the field of television.
How does a person live in 90 years?
Of course, capital acquired during his lifetime. We do not mean the wealth of a miserly knight, but the spiritual sphere of life. In old age, people tend to increasingly turn to the spirit, asking themselves the question: “How did I live my life? Why did I live? Did he live? The answer is harsh and fair edits time.
Let us recall N.V. Gogol: “Terrible, terrible is the coming old age, and nothing gives back and forth!”
The staff of the folk theater "Rodnik" of the Suzdal City House of Culture, while doing dramatic art, at the same time strives to create a museum of the theater, to trace in it the history of the birth and development of theatrical traditions in Suzdal. After all, it is known that even before the revolution, a drama group existed and was popular in a provincial provincial town. They learned that Vasily Ivanovich Kuzmichev was one of its active participants and invited the veteran to the theater drawing room.
A. A. Lebedeva Street(1912-1941). The tragedy occurred on a cold November night in 1941 in the waters of the Baltic Sea.

Among the dead was the navigator Lebedev, a native of Suzdal.
