Artemy Shulgin in contact. Valeria's eldest son decided to accept Swiss citizenship
Personality of Alexander I He is a man! they are ruled by the moment. He is a slave to rumors, doubts and passions; Let us forgive him his wrongful persecution: He took Paris, he founded the Lyceum. A. S. Pushkin
1. Accession to the throne In March 1801, conspirators broke into the bedroom of Paul I in the Mikhailovsky Castle and strangled him. His son, 23-year-old Alexander Pavlovich, became Emperor Alexander I in 1801. Alexander I promised to return all Catherine’s orders and continue the reforms of Catherine II.
2. Upbringing and education Alexander was raised by his grandmother, Empress Catherine II. Thanks to her, he received a good education and education in European traditions. Alexander read a lot, knew German, French and English languages. He was handsome and smart. He knew how to talk with people and please others.
3. Reform activities Alexander I wanted to change the life of Russian society, for which he began to carry out reforms. A group of young people rallied around the emperor (P. A. Stroganov, V. P. Kochubey, A. A. Chartorysky, N. N. Novosiltsev), who helped him rule the country. This group was called the "Unspoken Committee".
By Alexander's decree, five new universities, several lyceums and gymnasiums were opened. Among open educational institutions were Tsarskoye Selo Lyceum, where A.S. Pushkin studied. Alexander I dreamed of canceling serfdom. He adopted the decree “On Free Plowmen”. According to this decree, the landowner could free the serf peasant for a ransom.
Reforms state system Russia is connected with the activities of M. M. Speransky. In October 1809, a project entitled “Introduction to the Code state laws"was presented to the tsar. Speransky proposed introducing a strict separation of powers. The ministries would be the executive branch, and the State Duma the legislative branch. The courts would be independent and subordinate to the Senate. Speransky's plans were not realized.
Separation of powers Legislative branch of government according to Speransky: Executive branch of government according to Speransky: Ministries State Duma Judicial branch of government according to Speransky: SENATE
4. Patriotic War 1812 In June 1812, Napoleon's troops invaded the territory Russian Empire and began to quickly move deeper into the country. Napoleon waited for Emperor Alexander to bring him the keys to Moscow, but he did not wait and occupied the empty capital. He wrote a letter to the emperor, Alexander did not answer him... The French were starving and suffering from the cold in deserted Moscow. Napoleon gave the order to retreat from the city. In December 1812, M.I. Kutuzov reported to Emperor Alexander I: “The enemy has been completely exterminated. The war is over."
5. Military settlements The whole country rejoiced: the Frenchman was defeated. Alexander I decided that the victory had united the whole society and now it was possible to continue the reforms that had been started. General A. A. Arakcheev was close to the emperor. It was he and several other senior officials who began to prepare a reform project. By decree of the emperor, military settlements were created in 1816. Their creation was supervised by A. A. Arakcheev. The military villagers were former serfs. They had to carry at the same time military service and study peasant labor, i.e. provide yourself with everything necessary for life. Military settlements were not justified. The peasants often went hungry due to the ill-conceived orders of their superiors. They started uprisings and riots, for which they were shot or exiled to Siberia. Alexander I was condemned Russian society for these reforms.
6. The Legend of Elder Fyodor Kuzmich At the end of his life, Emperor Alexander I was less and less interested in state affairs. He became estranged from his family and increasingly spoke of his desire to leave imperial palace. One day he went south to see military settlements. On the way, the emperor unexpectedly died. His body was brought to St. Petersburg only 2 months later. Because of this, rumors spread throughout the country that it was not Emperor Alexander himself in the coffin, but another person. That the emperor himself is alive and has gone to wander the world. After some time, Elder Fyodor Kuzmich appeared in Siberia. He was kind to people, helped them and prayed for them. The elder was the same age as Alexander I and surprisingly similar to him. People began to say that this old man was Tsar Alexander. That he wanders around Russia and atones for sins for his murdered father Paul I. No one still knows if this is true?
7. Secret societies Alexander's attempt. I carried out reforms ended in failure. The entire Russian society condemned the emperor. In 1821 two were created secret societies: Southern and Northern. They included noble officers. They dreamed of freeing the peasants from serfdom and limiting the power of the emperor. Northern society arose in St. Petersburg. It was headed by K.F. Ryleev and N.M. Muravyov. Southern society appeared in Ukraine. The head of this society was P.I. Pestel.
8. Conclusions The era of the reign of Alexander I is a time of liberal reforms. The emperor himself, brought up in the spirit of enlightenment, sought to change the centuries-old serfdom. However, much of what was planned was not done. Quite often, reforms were simply half-hearted and remained only on paper. There was also positive result. Reform quests formed the basis on which new projects of state power were later developed.
If serious. Whose role in the victory over Napoleon was most underestimated?
It seems to me that the emperor.
This emperor was unlucky in historiography. Both his grandmother Catherine and his father Pavel have admirers. The first among the sovereigns and lovers of adventurous strawberries. The second is among romantics, fans of chivalry, “restoration of historical justice.” Even he has his fans younger brother- Nikolai Palkin (among monarchists, reactionaries, Stalinists, conservatives, martinets, etc.).
Alexander the Blessed has almost no enthusiastic fans in Russian historiography and modern journalism.
There was no certainty about it, which is what attracts ideological or emotional fans.
« In person and in life Harlequin“A.S. said about him. Pushkin.
His reputation was also unlucky in that his reign fell during the young years of the main Russian classic Pushkin.
« Raised under the drum
Our dashing king was a captain:
He fled near Austerlitz,
In the twelfth year I trembled,
But he was a fruity professor!
But the hero got tired of the frunt -
Now he is a collegiate assessor
Regarding foreign affairs!»
Alexander Pavlovich Romanov was for the still undefeated Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin. constant target of ironic poetic mockery:
You are rich, I am very poor;
You are a prose writer, I am a poet;
You are blushing like poppies,
I am like death and skinny and pale.
Having no worries forever,
You live in a huge house;
I'm in the midst of grief and troubles
I spend my days on straw.
You eat sweets every day,
You're dragging guilt free
And you are often lazy
Give the necessary debt to nature;
I'm from a stale piece,
From raw and fresh water,
About a hundred yards from the attic
I run after the known need.
Surrounded by a crowd of slaves
With a menacing gaze of despotism,
Aphedron, you're so fat
You wipe with calico;
I'm a sinful hole
I don't indulge in children's fashion
And Khvostov’s harsh ode,
Even though I wince, I struggle.
But the same Pushkin will write about Emperor Alexander:
Fuller, fuller! and, with my heart on fire,
Again, drink to the bottom, drink to the drop!
But for whom? oh others, guess...
Hurray, our king! So! Let's drink to the king.
He is a human! they are ruled by the moment.
He is a slave to rumors, doubts and passions;
Let us forgive him his wrongful persecution:
He took Paris, he founded the Lyceum.
In the history of 1812, his role was decisive. It was he who, abandoning plans to attack the Duchy of Warsaw, lured Napoleon to Russia. It was he who approved the strategy of retreat, abandoned the border battle that Napoleon so craved, and forced him to follow the Russian army. It was he who supported Barclay’s strategy, and at the right moment replaced him with Kutuzov. It was he who, to Napoleon's surprise, chose the position of “no negotiations” and no compromises.
He designed the Congress of Vienna, stood at the foundation of the Holy Alliance... The balancing of Europe created with his participation delayed the next World War global war for a hundred years.
In politics, Alexander, according to the Swedish diplomat G. Lagerbjelke, was “ thin as the tip of a pin, sharp as a razor, and false as sea foam».
He was the only politician among the Romanov family - a politician in pure form. Two-faced, hypocritical, not trusting anyone, balancing... - exactly what a politician should be. He was characterized by a certain femininity of character, painful pride, suspicion and constant acting. He rehearsed his social appearances in front of the mirror, trying on not only his dress, but also his gestures, smiles, and phrases. But he perfectly comprehended and effectively used the most graceful poses of ancient statues.
And never before or after him did Russia occupy such a position in the world, enjoy such influence, sympathy, etc.
“I am an internationally minded person and not tied to a place”
Contrary to the common misconception that children star parents always follow in the footsteps of their parents, our hero, Artemy Shulgin, made a choice in a completely different direction. A student at Webster University in Switzerland recently returned to Moscow and in our exclusive interview talked about his family, friends and shared plans for the future.
Continue Artemy Shulgin is...
Artemy Shulgin is a 22-year-old guy who lived in Switzerland for 11 years. I went there at the age of 10 and two months ago I returned to Russia to benefit my Motherland.
Have you chosen to study abroad in Geneva? Why so far from home?
To be honest, it turned out that neither I nor my parents chose her. I was sent abroad to summer camp(part-time school) for 6 weeks, and then they asked me if I liked it and if I wanted to stay. I agreed, for 10 years it was a lot of independence. Then they just brought me my suitcases, I didn’t even return to Russia and didn’t say goodbye to anyone. I didn’t choose, it just so happened that I ended up in a good educational institution.
No one would be surprised if you chose a profession related to the stage, why didn't you?
I have no specific profession or direction as such. I am involved in many areas, I have three higher education. The third, music production at Berklee College of Music, I am finishing now. The first is IT technology, and the second is management. I personally like this versatility, understanding and understanding different things, communicating with different people.
Did your parents influence your professional choice?
No, democracy reigns in our family. Nobody forced anyone to do anything, I chose it myself. Parents could only advise something, but they would not advise anything bad. I returned to Russia most likely because of my parents, they need me here more than there. First of all, I haven’t seen them all my life, because I first lived with my grandmother in the Saratov region, then immediately moved to Switzerland. I lived with my family for a total of about two years during all this time, so now it’s unusual for me to see my family so often, although before we spent holidays together.
Three professions, and what aspects of them attract you most?
I think the most interesting thing is meeting people. It's like a big chain, I worked for a company in the summer related to virtual reality, there are very promising guys there, the company is a leader in this market segment. And there I met some very brainy guys. Where else can you meet people who are professionals in their field?
What do children of famous parents lack?
Elementary freedom, and it’s not about freedom of action. We can't just go out for a walk in the park without a certain number of people around, without security, without them pointing fingers at you or asking for an autograph. It’s difficult to even go to the grocery store; there are certain things we can’t do. There is no privacy, your whole life is in public.
Which one is the best valuable advice did you get it from your parents?
Bring it to the end, if you take on something, then you need to finish it, you can’t quit halfway, because you won’t gain any experience, success, or anything from it. Before I left to study in Switzerland, I studied poorly, all the teachers cried because of me, I did not complete anything either in my studies or in my business, that is, I was completely irresponsible, but after moving there I came to my senses.
Tell us about your relationship with your brother and sister?
I saw them, as well as my parents, very rarely; despite this, our relationship was close; we tried to spend every holiday together. Unfortunately, now every year we see each other less and less. Both sister and brother busy schedule, everyone begins their own professional and personal life. I am very pleased that we have a warm relationship, it seems to me that not everyone has this in their family.
What is your ideal family model?
Where everyone listens and understands each other. There is no ideal model, some people like it when there are a lot of children, some like it when there are few, in some places there is patriarchy, and in others there is matriarchy. This is all very individual. We have an ideal family, we quarrel and argue like everyone else normal people, but in the end we come to a consensus, we can agree on everything and help each other. Model ideal family- this is a friendly family, where everyone will tear and throw for each other.
Do you believe in friendship? How is your social circle formed?
They say you can never have too many friends, but on the contrary, I have many true friends. I find it very quickly mutual language with people. I like to communicate with those who are good at something. By making such acquaintances, you acquire people who can help you in life. Since I studied at an international school, I have friends all over the world. When we were all studying, we didn’t have parents, there was one counselor for 30 kids, that is, my friends were my family. That's why I have big circle very close people, because we lived together in Geneva for 10 years, everyone became like a brother or sister. Therefore, friendship for me is a very important thing and exists in large quantities.
Describe your ideal girl?
I’m not one of those people who can immediately name the parameters; there is no such ideal. A person must burn from the inside, I don’t really like passive people. Eat interesting people, which are beautiful both inside and out. Kindness is the main quality, there should be no rot, there should be no greed, no greed, all this can be seen a mile away. Therefore, for a girl, kindness and sincerity are the main thing, and mental abilities play an important role.
How do you spend your free time? What is your hobby?
I like to meet with friends, there are many of them, I need to see everyone, but there is little time. Basically, I just relax, don’t watch TV, etc. I don’t rest alone, for me this is not a rest, at this moment it seems to me that life is passing me by and I need to do something. I’ve never watched a TV series in my life, I don’t understand how it’s like to bury yourself in the screen and disappear for several hours.
Have you recently returned to Moscow? Have your favorite places already appeared?
Beaumonde Lounge on Lubyanka, Nikolskaya 25, opposite the Central Children's House. Firstly, this is the very center, there are no problems with parking. This is a restaurant with food and hookahs. It’s close for everyone to gather there, because everyone different places. I am conservative in this regard; if I like it, I go to one place, I don’t understand why experiment and look for something else.
Is there a chance that you will stay in Moscow or, on the contrary, leave?
Honestly, 4 months ago I had no idea that I would come here. I can’t say for sure, now I have no desire to leave here, I like it here. I haven't been here for a long time, I haven't gotten tired yet. There is a contrast with Europe here Cold winter, three-hour traffic jams, it’s hard mentally and physically, but the rest of us live like this, worse than me. I am a person of international thinking and am not tied to a place; if I need to go to London, Paris, etc., I will leave without any problems.
What are your immediate plans? Maybe you wanted to work in one profession?
If we look at the areas, then go deeper into music, because it’s native to me, I grew up with it, around music, in the studio, behind the scenes, behind the scenes. I want to go into music production, it doesn’t matter if it’s writing music for artists or cinema or working on the radio.
You moved from Europe to Moscow, how do people differ in your opinion?
Two things I can note are friendliness and sincerity. In Europe, people are very friendly, but not sincere, and in Russia there are problems with friendliness, but people are sincere. In Europe, everyone walks around and says hello to you, but you will never know what they were really thinking at that moment.

And the youngest, after a short spree with the model, returned home to Moscow and resumed his studies
Last time star couple- VALERIYA and Joseph PRIGOGINE - the singer’s children from her marriage to Alexander SHULGIN cause a lot of concern. At first, the show crowd was excited by the news of problems with her youngest son- 17-year-old Arseny. As you know, he successfully began his career as a pianist and has already given concerts with symphony orchestra. But last fall, he unexpectedly became interested in 20-year-old model from Kaluga Anna AVERYANOVA, performing under the pseudonym SHERIDAN, abandoned classes at the music school and, having quarreled with his mother and stepfather, left home.
“Artemy applied for citizenship, since he has been living there for 10 years,” he hesitated Joseph Prigogine, whom our call found on vacation with Valeria in Morocco. - With a Swiss passport it will be easier for him. When he graduates, he will go to serve. Now Tema has other concerns - another university and a master's degree. He only thinks about it. At one time Tema lived in our house on the shore Lake Geneva. And then I moved to the university to make it more convenient to go to classes.

“The boy is 17 years old,” Joseph sighed. - All of us at this age were looking for ourselves and making mistakes. Famous Richter He left the conservatory altogether and went to Odessa. The professor came for him. But Senya didn’t throw anything. He was just a little overtired. Yes, he has a girlfriend - this mare. I immediately told her that I didn’t like her. And he told her parents the same thing. No, I didn’t mind Senya dating her. I didn't care about her at all. The problem was that she distracted him and he stopped studying. But nothing bad happened.
Senya just temporarily left music school. Since the general education subjects there are not very good, he returned to school to get a strong education, pass the Unified State Exam and, just in case, have the opportunity to enroll not only in college, but in any university. Senya lives, as before, in our Moscow apartment. Gets up at 7 am and goes to school. IN the winter vacation he was indeed absent from home. But then he came back. In general, everything is fine with us. And what they say about this is bullshit, someone’s leftist gossip. Yes, after school Senya can be drafted into the army. But that doesn't scare me. On the contrary, I would be only happy about it. I believe that if a person is not engaged in some serious business, he should go to serve. Everyone served in the Soviet Union. And there was no tragedy in this.
Singer Valeria has three children from her marriage with her ex-producer Alexander Shulgin: Anna, Artemy and Arseny. Anna Shulgina not long ago began building her career as a singer, Arseny is still getting an education, and Artemy is already boasting of a prestigious job. Recently young man invited to the famous Western recording studio The Hana Road Studios in Switzerland.

Valery boasted about her son’s successes on the microblog. She said that Artemy, as a producer, helped record the anthem of the “Heat” festival, which is about to start in Baku.
“I made it. My son Artemy is recording me in the studio" - Valeria shared her happiness.
Despite his rather young age - 22 years old, Artemy has already received three degrees. He graduated from the world-famous Berklee College of Music, where he studied business management and IT technology. Having successfully completed his studies at Berkeley, Artemy literally a few days after graduation received an offer to work at The Hana Road Studios. For the past month, Valeria’s heir has been involved in management, production, and financial matters.
“Of course, we would be glad if Artemy found a job in Moscow. But on the other hand, experience in Western companies is extremely valuable. Let's see what will happen next" - Joseph Prigozhin spoke about the employment of his stepson.
It is worth noting that The Hana Road Studios office is located in Montreux, where Valeria and Joseph Prigozhin have own house, and where they come every year to the famous jazz festival.
