Winners of the Golden Delvig Award. Delvig Prize

The Anton Delvig LG Prize has published a “Long List”

The award named after the first editor of “LG” Anton Delvig “For fidelity to the Word and the Fatherland” was established as an annual Russian national award on October 1, 2012. It is awarded in January - in honor of the founding of the newspaper by Alexander Pushkin and Anton Delvig in 1830.

The purpose of the award is professional recognition and support for writers whose works continue and enhance the best traditions and values ​​of Russian literature, preserve and develop the national literary language, contribute to the strengthening and prosperity of the Fatherland.

The prize is awarded in 10 categories, including “Children’s and Youth Literature.” Premium fund amounts to seven million rubles.

Books in Russian published no earlier than 2012 were presented for the second season award. The geography of applicants turned out to be large: in addition to Russia, authors from Belarus and Kazakhstan, the USA and Australia, Germany, Switzerland and other countries were represented. The “long list” contains over 90 names. The award jury continues to work on the formation of the “Short List”.

In the category “Children's and Youth Literature” the following are presented:

  • Belarusian Sergei “Finger to the sky!.. Poems for children”;
  • Karetnikova Ekaterina “Navigator of the Fifth Sea. Youth romantic story";
  • Lyubimov Yuri “Song about autumn. Poems for adults to read to children";
  • Malenko Vlad “The Adventures of the Dog Kefir. Five stories for children of primary and secondary school age";
  • Naumova Irina “Mr. Kutsekhvost and the foreign spy. Fairy Tale for children";

The Anton Delvig Prize is “very forward-looking: we cover all major genres of literature, including criticism, children’s literature and so on, unlike other awards that focus on the novel or poetic form,” VZGLYAD told the newspaper Chief Editor « Literary newspaper» Yuri Polyakov.

Let us remind you that in Pushkin Museum On March 23, the literary award “For Fidelity to the Word and the Fatherland” took place, named after one of the poets of Pushkin’s galaxy, Anton Delvig. In addition to the medal and diploma, the laureates also received a cash prize. This year’s bonus fund includes 11 “Golden Delvigs” of 200 thousand rubles each and two “Young Delvig” awards of 100 thousand rubles each, the Tsargrad portal noted.

As the chairman of the jury, Yuri Polyakov, explained to the newspaper VZGLYAD, among young authors there are cases when a person has a bright debut, however, subsequently, hopes for it are not justified. “Therefore, the Golden Delvig award highlights established writers, and for young writers there is a special, so to speak, division of the Young Delvig award,” the interlocutor noted. In his opinion, this approach is “more organic for literature.”

At the same time, Polyakov noted that “the writers received the prize different generations And different directions" Among the laureates, for example, is the oldest Orthodox philosopher and publicist Viktor Trostnikov. At the award ceremony, the 87-year-old author noted: “Once upon a time, I read in the Gospel: “Seek the Kingdom of Heaven,” do not think about food, drink and clothing. Years later, I understood what Jesus meant - we must find our place in the Kingdom of Heaven. My search is outlined in my last book"Thoughts before sunset." When I wrote it, I did not think about food, drink and clothing. They gave me a bonus - now I can buy all this.”

Another representative of the older generation, winner of the award, is the poet and playwright Konstantin Skvortsov. In addition, the Yakut poetess Natalya Kharlampieva was among the laureates. “We definitely have a laureate who writes in his native language. Because our other central awards forget that literature in Russia is written not only in Russian,” Polyakov noted. He added that the winner of the prize was also a Siberian writer, a successor to the traditions of Astafiev and Rasputin - Anatoly Bayborodin.

In addition, the jury tries to ensure that among the laureates there is a major writer - a representative of one of the states that was previously part of Soviet Union: “This time it was the Azerbaijani prose writer working in the difficult genre of intellectual and allegorical prose Abdulla Kamal,” Polyakov noted, recalling that the laureates were also whole line other writers.

The award named after the first editor of Literaturnaya Gazeta, Anton Delvig, “For Loyalty to the Word and the Fatherland” was established as an annual Russian national award on October 1, 2012. The purpose of the award is professional recognition and support for writers whose books and publications continue and enhance the best traditions and values ​​of classical Russian, multinational Soviet and Russian literature, are high level mastery, preserve and develop the Russian literary language, fully and uniquely reflect the processes taking place in society, and contribute to the strengthening and prosperity of the Fatherland.

Why is the prize not for Gogol, Gaidar or, for example, Kharms and Oleinikov? Yes, for this reason: it was Anton Delvig who was one of the creators and first editor of the Literary Newspaper, which, in turn, established this prize in 2012.

Anyone who submits a talented text to the competition can truly become a laureate. And this is not a figure of speech,” Maxim Zamshev, coordinator of the Golden Delvig award, explained to VM. - Moreover, if last year we divided the laureates into winners of gold, silver and bronze awards, then this time we decided not to do this: all the winners of this year are completely equal!

This time, by the way, in the so-called “ long list The prize included 56 works published from January 2014 to 2016. Of these, the expert council selected 24 books, among which were not only novels, but also collections of stories, articles and essays, books of poetry, as well as translations of Sufi poetry, a look at Euromaidan and a biography of Radishchev. Among the authors there are recognized masters such as poets Evgeny Rein and Evgeny Chigrin.

"Golden Delvig", general prize fund which amounts to 7 million rubles, is awarded in several categories - “ Modern prose", "Historical prose", "Poetry (small forms)", "Poetry (large forms)", "Publicism", "Criticism and literary criticism", "Literary translation", "Satire", "Children's and youth literature" and " Literary debut."

Editor-in-Chief of Roman-Gazeta Yuri Kozlov (right) nominated the novel Nadya by Alexander Cooper (left) for the Golden Delvig award.

Talented works in different genres need to be encouraged, explains Zamshev’s prize policy. – It is only important that the writer does not come into conflict with the gigantic Russian cultural mainstream. You can't invade cultural code created over centuries!

As a result, this time eleven authors became laureates of the “Golden Delvig” award, awarded with the wording “For fidelity to the Word and the Fatherland.” Among them is Evgeny Rein, noted for his book of poems “Labyrinth” and, at the same time, for his outstanding contribution to Russian poetry. Also laureates were: Viktor Trostnikov for the book “Oils before Sunset”, Natalya Kharlampieva for “Declaration of Love. Yakutia in Russian poetry in the second half of the 20th century", Kamal Abdulla for the collection of stories "Plato, it seems, fell ill...", Konstantin Skvortsov for the book of poems "A boat for two", Svyatoslav Rybas for biographical research“Vasily Shulgin: the fate of a Russian nationalist”, Alexander Shchipkov for “ Bronze Age. A View from Tarusa”, Olga Eliseeva for the book “Radishchev”, Anatoly Bayborodin for “The Miracle of the Lake”, Evgeny Chigrin for the collection of poems “Underwater Ball” and Alexander Cooper (aka editor-in-chief of “Evening Moscow” Alexander Kupriyanov) for.

This is my first award in thirty years of work in prose,” admitted Alexander Cooper. - And, first of all, I want to thank Viktor Petrovich Astafiev for it. A long time ago we met him in the village of Ovsyanki and talked. “I think you’re writing,” he told me. “I’m writing,” I replied. And, in response to his offer to send him something to read, he sent the manuscript of his book “The Golden Bug” from Moscow. When Astafiev replied to me, sending me the edits, I was beside myself with happiness.

My book is a declaration of love to Russian poets who visited Yakutia: Varlam Shalamov, Evgeny Yevtushenko and many others,” said Natalya Kharlampieva from the stage. - I hope that it will make many people think about how big Russia is and how many national literatures exists in it.

At the end of the evening, writer and editor-in-chief of Roman-Gazeta Yuri Kozlov stated:

I was once again convinced that this is a prize aimed at Russian literary tradition, and therefore devoid of postmodern excesses.

And it was absolutely true.

Lidiya Sycheva won the Delvig Prize

A prestigious literary prize established by Literaturnaya Gazeta was awarded in Moscow. The award is named after Pushkin's friend Tsarskoye Selo Lyceum Anton Delvig - he was the first publisher of Literature, and the “sun of Russian poetry” actively collaborated with him.

We attended the ceremony where we saw a lot of celebrities. Thus, the prize was received, for example, by Alexander Prokhanov and Andrey Dementyev. Among the young people who are well-known is Sergei Shargunov. True, on the sidelines many guests judged and dressed up - for which the editor-in-chief received an award “ Literary Russia"? The guests, knowledgeable in Russian literature, were lost in riddles...

Vitaly Tretyakov and Nikolai Gubenko were seen at the ceremony (the latter was with his wife, the wonderful Zhanna Bolotova). Among the officials, Igor Slyunyaev honored the event. And, of course, Yuri Polyakov, the editor-in-chief of Literaturka, shone throughout the evening. They say that it is he who decides who to give this monetary award (its fund is 7 million rubles). The sponsor, by the way, is Rosneft.

At the award ceremony, our attention was attracted by the following laureates - the impressive Bakhytzhan Kanapyanov from Kazakhstan (he gave the shortest speech!), the brutal Yuri Belikov (he read the most striking poems) and the witty Lidiya Sycheva , who, when she was awarded, congratulated the jury on her excellent choice: “Don’t doubt, you were not mistaken!”

We asked a writer from Voronezh to answer several questions.

Lydia, how are you feeling today?

Feelings of gratitude. I thank my village native land, which gives me strength to live. I thank my parents who gave me life. And I thank my teacher in literature, the outstanding Russian poet Valentin Vasilyevich Sorokin. He gave me spiritual light.

Tell us about the book for which you were given Delvig.

This is a collection of stories “Three Powers”, published by ITRK publishing house under the federal program “Culture”. I am glad that such readers as Lev Pirogov, Tatyana Shabaeva, Oleg Fenchuk noted my work. These are excellent critics, demanding and strict.

What are you writing about?

About modern life.

Well, then you should also write about the opposition movements on Bolotnaya Square.

This is also in the book.

Have you read the works of other laureates?

I know well the work of Anna Fedorets, a remarkably talented researcher.

I read a lot. If you are interested, I can name books that I think will be useful to everyone. Of course there are many of them...

Let's limit ourselves to three.

Please. “In its own way” by Zoya Prokopyeva, “Golden Flower-Odolen” by Vladilen Mashkovtsev, “Mountain Nest” by Mamin-Sibiryak.

The Delvig Award ceremony ended late in the evening with a grandiose buffet. The writers, laureates and guests did not leave for a long time. Toasts sounded, glasses of champagne clinked. Now it’s up to the reader: he is the main “jury” who will vote for the book with rubles.

“Golden Delvig”: emotions about the reaction of “colleagues”

Yesterday evening I attended the Anton Delvig Prize ceremony, held in State Museum A.S. Pushkin (not named after Pushkin, but Pushkin) on Prechistenka 12/2. Once upon a time it was a city noble estate Khrushchev-Seleznyov. And today - a newfangled phantasmagoria, in which parts of the ancient manor are covered from above with a glass vaulted ceiling, turning the courtyard into a vast hall.

Not everyone probably remembers why Delvig. Let me remind you: he was the first editor of the Literary Newspaper. Since school, we have become accustomed to recognizing A.S. Pushkin is the father of this publication. And from Soviet times I remember two profiles on the front page of the newspaper - A.S. Pushkin and M. Gorky. And no Delvig. However, if we take L.A. for example. Chareysky, then we will read from him: “Pushkin actively participated in Delvig’s publications “Northern Flowers” ​​(1825-1831), “Snowdrop” (1829) and “Literary Newspaper” (1830) ...” But that’s just me, by the way, if anyone I didn’t understand.

“For loyalty to the word and the Fatherland” - this was the slogan of this entire event. I personally know half of this year’s laureates (some past laureates, whom I also know, were also present). In my opinion, not everyone is so loyal to the Fatherland. Yesterday I also saw those who don’t keep their word (what kind of fidelity to a word can we talk about). But I attributed these annoying individual facts to the desire of the organizers to be, so to speak, moderately politically correct and tolerant. The desire to look respectable in the eyes of the, so to speak, liberal wing of the domestic literary community took over. I remember well an old article by Yuri Polyakov, in which he, going on a plane to book fair to Paris, fantasizes: what if this plane falls and crashes; then an irreparable blow will be dealt to this very liberal sector. And only writers and poets, so to speak, of the patriotic wing will remain in the country. However, this dream was not destined to come true, and now in Russia everything is in charge and steered by the same wing that was 99 percent represented in the aircraft described by Polyakov.

I discovered this fact today when, wanting to clarify the names of all the laureates I saw yesterday, I went to the Literaturnaya Gazeta website. I was amazed. No, not names. I heard them yesterday and saw the laureates themselves. Everything is fine here. I was surprised by the comments at the bottom of the website page with the biographies of the laureates. IN best traditions of a free democratic and excessively liberal society, the owners of the site have opened up the opportunity for everyone to, how to say, express themselves... well...

What can I say about expressions? Russian liberals are not yet ready for freedom of speech, that’s what I’ll say. Just latrine arrange from any decent place reserved for the expression of thoughts before they appear. They are given the opportunity to express their thoughts, and they... are clearly doing something different there. Well, it’s not intelligence, honor and conscience, for sure.

"Golden Delvig" - first results

PREMIUM CLASS

The Literary Prize named after Anton Delvig, who founded the Literary Newspaper in 1829 together with Alexander Pushkin, was established by the editors of LG in 2004. The prize was awarded at the end of the calendar year, and in the first New Year's issue newspapers published information about the laureates.
In the fall of this year, the editors of Literaturnaya Gazeta found the opportunity to reformat this award into the All-Russian national award “Golden Delvig”. The bonus amounts were increased accordingly.
The newspaper reported three times about the acceptance of works for the prize. This year, admission was carried out in an accelerated manner: within two months - until December 1 of this year. inclusive. However, we also reviewed those books that were presented in early December. Review of applicants closed on December 15, 2012 in order to present a long list of applicants to the newspaper before the New Year.
As a result, the number of books submitted and nominated for the award went into the hundreds. Books were sent by publishing houses, libraries, regional and regional authorities, newspapers, cultural institutions from almost all regions of Russia, from republics Russian Federation. Also, the editors received many nominations from near and far abroad. For example, we received books from writers and letters of nomination from Belarus, Israel, Ukraine, Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan. The list of publishing houses whose books are eligible for the prize is also wide. Among them are such major publishers in Russia as EKSMO, AST, Astrel, and small publishing houses of small and big cities countries. The mail also brought us curiosities. For example, one of the publishing houses sent almost the entire annual production of 2012 and 2011 for the award. Of course, we are also to blame for this: the number of nominated books from a particular publishing house was not specified in the terms of the award. But still we hoped for common sense, who sometimes refuses other colleagues.
