19:18 Belarusian writer: Award Aleksievich discredit Nobel Committee – REGNUM

->

Minsk, 8 October 2015, 19:18 – REGNUM «The awarding of the Nobel Prize for Literature Svetlana Aleksievich – a complete discrediting and most of the Nobel Prize, and its organizing committee, “- he said on October 8 correspondent IA REGNUM Belarusian writer, chairman of the Vitebsk public association” Russian House “ Andrew Gerashchenko evaluating the decision of the Nobel Committee to award the Prize for Literature in 2015, Svetlana Aleksievich.

«I have long believed that the Nobel Prize is a mechanism for the adoption of certain policy decisions – said Gerashchenko. – Need to make some kind of shape that Belarus will oppose Alexander Lukashenko . Or even figure. It is clear that T Atiyah Karatkevich (representative of the pro-Western opposition in Belarus and presidential candidate – approx. IA REGNUM ) for this role is not too drawn. Or rather – did not pull. ”

The writer finds that the politicization of literary prizes and the involvement of writers in political activity often ends badly for distributing prizes, and the writers themselves. “At the time, tried to oppose Lukashenko Bykov, but even then did not think Bykov to award the Nobel Prize – said Gerashchenko. – I’m not so highly of Vasil Bykov , but in comparison with Aleksievich it as a mountain in relation to the mound. Therefore, the Nobel Prize for Aleksievich looks complete nonsense. ”

«Svetlana Aleksievich, in general, is quite professional, but rather a mediocre writer. She has a special way of collecting quintessence of black and negative – that is all she wrote, it is basically true, but the truth is very peculiar is the fact that all painstakingly collected only bad and unpleasant. Here I want to quote the words of Director General of the agency BelTA Dmitry Zhuk , which is quite accurately to ask a rhetorical question (in a different context – at the XVII World Congress of Russian Press in Moscow, when discussing the authenticity of the exploits of the heroes of Panfilov): “And why in a house where 17 rooms, it is necessary to talk about the dirty toilet? Where are the other 17 rooms ?! “. So – Aleksievich is precisely such an expert on “the description of toilets”, no matter how good the apartment. Moreover, these “toilets” she sees only the former Soviet Union, and to focus not notice them in the West. Therefore, according to the West, it is the prize and earned, “- said the Belarusian writer.

« Nobel Prize in the humanitarian sphere after the award of her Aleksievich was just a fiction, if not to take into account almost a million dollars, which will be received “outstanding Belarusian writer and best of all times.” And in the field of exact sciences prize in the major US and Western – all things being equal it is always awarded to their representatives, and our (Eastern Europe, Russia) ever satisfied “crumbs from the master’s table, – noted Gerashchenko. – I have often said that it is necessary to establish their own international award Lomonosov as Lomonosov made a great contribution in the various sciences, and humanities and cultural activity, and to award it to those who are worthy. No need to always be in a miserable position ingratiating asylum in another receiving ».

« Yes, Sholokhov , Alferov , Brodsky and other worthy prize. But a lot of our scientists and writers, too, were worthy of it, but have not received, “- he stressed.

«is not our prize – we are strangers on this holiday, – he concluded the Belarusian writer. – And about Aleksievich … It can be congratulated on the successful self-PR. Earlier, there was talk of a Nobel Prize for Vladimir Nyaklyaeu a representative of the pro-Western opposition in Belarus and an ex-presidential candidate – approx. IA REGNUM ), but did not give – probably the story with a slew of cat was too shocking. ”

In assessing the scandalous decision of the Swedish Academy, Gerashchenko spoke to Soviet literary classics: “remember” 12 chairs “by Ilf and Petrov, and a winged dialogue:” What father – the young man asked, protracted – the bride you the city has? The old man janitor was not surprised. – To the bride and the mare, – he said, eagerly engaging in conversation. – More questions I do not know – the young man said quickly. ” I have a Nobel Committee questions too is no more ».

As reported IA REGNUM , October 8 in Minsk, winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2015, Svetlana Aleksievich told reporters that three-quarters of citizens Russia pleased to Kill “Ukrainians” and not worthy of sympathy. In her opinion, the Russian leadership has created some other Russian people who hates “Ukrainians” and propaganda which replaces his own opinion. Aleksievich noted that Russian writers consider it rusofobkoy vain, and that it considers itself a part of the Russian world, but not one that is associated with the policy of the USSR and the Russian Federation.
