Family and so on S. with her family, the father of Nekrasov met in the Kherson province, where Zakrevsky acquired vast estates on the right of the right of the pertressioner. Leaving the service with the rank of major, Nekrasov’s father finally settled in his estate in the village of Greshnevo, the Yaroslavl province, on the postal tract between Yaroslavl and Kostroma.

There were 13 brothers and sisters of a large family, of which two brothers N. Nekrasov, Konstantin and Fedor Alekseevichi, and one sister Anna Alekseevna, processes on the estate, often put all this often put the head of the family in a difficult situation. Nikolai was given to the Yaroslavl gymnasium in the year, where he remained until the fifth grade. Having spent all his childhood in the village, he returned there at every opportunity: in the spring - on Easter, in the summer - on vacation, in the winter - for Christmas time.

At one time, his father was a police officer, he often loved boredom for the sake of taking Nikolai's son on the service of service; Thus, the boy of Ty was present at various scenes of folk life, during consequences, when opening corpses, and sometimes during reprisals in the taste of previous time. All this made a deep impression on the child and early in living paintings introduced him to the then, often too difficult conditions of folk life.

Nekrasov’s father always wanted his son to inherit his title and go to military service. As a result, the young Nekrasov was supposed to leave the gymnasium early and went to St. Petersburg in the year to determine the noble regiment on the then noble regiment on the St. Petersburg side. A friend of his father, the Yaroslavl prosecutor Polozov, gave a letter to his brother, the head of the III district of the gendarmes corps, General Polozov, who, in turn, recommended the young man J.

Rostovtsev, and the case was almost decided. But Nekrasov met in St. Petersburg his Yaroslavl comrade Glusitsky, a university student, and accidentally met a professor of theological seminary DM. Uspensky; They excited such a hunt in him that he frankly admitted to General Polozov’s wife: instead of the noble regiment, he would be advisable to enter the university.

The Polozovs approved his intention and at the same time reported that in Yaroslavl to his relative. Through him, the father of Nekrasov soon recognized everything about everything. The wrath of his father did not stop the young man who, due to him, saw himself provided to his own fate. Meanwhile, friends, Glusitsky and Uspensky, took on the preparation of Nekrasov for an entrance exam at the university, and Uspensky was engaged with him with such a success that the then -known professor of Roman literature Freetag, a very demanding Latinist, put him in the reception of the Latin language 5 “Plus”; But in the physical sciences, the venerable philologist himself was weak, and this was reflected in a fatal way on his student: Nekrasov felt that from physics he could not get marks above the unit.

This would be nothing, since one unit at that time was not an obstacle to admission to the university; But the trouble consisted in the fact that the preferential unit was already purchased on the exam from geography from prof. In view of such a sad circumstance, Nekrasov decided to come to the rector P. Pletnev and openly express his position to him; He enters the university against his father’s will - and now, if he is not accepted into the number of students, his position will be desperate.

Pletnev coped of other marks, who perfectly recommended a young man who, moreover, wanted to enter the philosophical faculty now-historical and philological, and reassured Nekrasov with a promise to petition for him in the Council. Based on this promise, Nekrasov did not at all appear at the exam from physics, and due to that, there was no question in the council about him. Therefore, Pletnev did not remember him, but after, with a date, he convinced him not to leave the university and act as a free listener.

At first, Nekrasov did not dare. A few days later, on the old Isaakievsky bridge, he sees that someone was catching up with him and walking next to him, peering into him. It was Pletnev. He again began to convince him, and Nekrasov gave a petition. Thus began the university life of Nekrasov, which continued for years. Nekrasov settled on Malaya Okhta; Funds for life had to be extracted with lessons, correction and literary attempts; Even before entering the university, he wrote poetry, and his first poem “Thought” was printed in the year in the “Son of the Fatherland”.

But the money extracted by such works was very scarce; Often, Nekrasov had to together with Comrade Glusitsky and their only servant to be content with five -altyn per day. In those days, youth from the nobility was mainly concentrated at the university, and university friendly circles mixed all classes and ranks in themselves.The poor young man with a budget of almost a few cents per day easily approached with the young men of the highest and rich classes, and not only came closer, but thanks to his personal talents, abilities and a cheerful character, he could even excel between them; At student collections and pyruses, arranged at that time like German kneep and commercial, it was not the same who was the same who was more no than everyone, but who was better fought at the escodrons and rapier, who was more courageous and physically more agile.

In such a funny and rampant friendly circles, a provincial young man, growing in the village, suddenly found himself, and then he got acquainted for the first time with ordinary life and morals of other social classes, which, without university life, would be known to him only by rumors. This new environment, like the former village, did not remain without the influence in the future on Nekrasov’s poetry and his very character, as well as on the conditions of further life: then the connections that were borne by him were preserved and later; The shortcomings and weakness of the life of the highest public layers became familiar to him first -hand and are well acquainted.

New impressions were faced in Nekrasov with the first memories from the village life of a completely different kind, and this contrast finally determined the future nature of his poetry. This was joined by another opposite, personally tested by him: with intimacy with youth, more than enough, carefree and enjoying, he himself suffered a lot of heavy deprivations at every step and hardly mined a piece of pressing bread.

There was nothing to think seriously about university science and the correct end of the course in such an environment, which required almost all the time to extract the most primitive means of existence.
