The inscriptions on the monuments of the graves of the actors. epitaphs of the greats. Well I told you

Short text, which is engraved on a grave monument or tombstone in memory of the deceased is called an epitaph. It's hard to imagine that something so dark could be funny in form or content, but there are people whose sense of humor doesn't die with them. Most epitaphs are dedicated to the family of the deceased, his professional or other important achievements in life, often with an expression of love and respect, but there are gravestone inscriptions that are much more unusual, interesting and creative.

Thanks to these creative personalities, the cemetery becomes a slightly less gloomy place, and among sorrow and tears, there is suddenly a place for joy. famous actors and singers, as well as less famous people with a wonderful sense of humor decided to make us laugh in the end, and we are very grateful to them for this.

There are situations when the verbal expression of feelings is regulated by unwritten rules of behavior that are stricter than usual, up to the prohibition to speak out. In such cases, the myriad variety of individual shades of feeling is reduced to a common denominator - to pronouncing the memorized words of an ancient prayer or to sacred silence. This is how they behave in the temple at the hour of worship, at the monuments during the public ritual of laying flowers. This is how people speak to eternity in the language of epitaphs - inscriptions carved by them on the stone of cemetery tombstones.

The domestic tradition of inscriptions of this kind is not very ancient, because for its occurrence it was necessary not only to create and introduce writing. The need to inscribe tombstones must have arisen and developed in the human soul.

The decoration of the form could be brought to such a refinement as an acrostic reproducing the name of the deceased, Irina Glebovskaya (1725):

Having a debt to go to the grave,
River: may the earthly womb receive me,
Even after the light has gone past the future,
On the 10th of October in the morning of the current.
I am Volodymyr's daughter.

Russian epitaphs did not escape the fate that this genre had on Western European soil, where writings of this kind had long been divided into two unmerged directions. There were epitaphs that were created in order to become real inscriptions in cemeteries, but literary fictions also arose, no one would have thought to offer them for execution in stone. Alas, these illegitimate offspring of poets often turned out to be more talented than those who had the legal right to a place in the sacred territory of the cemetery.

This, however, corresponds to the personal composition of the authors. The most prominent national poets wrote epitaphs for cemetery monuments very rarely. These poets, at least as well as others, knew the bitterness of loss, they also buried their loved ones - but they were silent, just as the closest relatives are still silent at mourning ceremonies, other people speak according to an unwritten law. It is clear that with some other human combinations, among these “other people” there may be a real and touched to the living artist of the word, which is why it happens, along with the usual, unmemorable performances, to hear such a funeral speech and read such an obituary that leaves us an indelible mark, imperceptibly form the attitude to life and death, the spiritual culture of all those around. Let us note that all or almost all the best of what was said and written on this sad occasion did not arise by order, but spontaneously.

The tombstone is a custom item. The architect and sculptor who create it have the professional ability to feel the will of the customer, adapt to it, without leaving the estimate of allowed expenses, for them this is a normal creative situation. But to the poet it will seem like a bondage, he is accustomed to another much greater degree of freedom. Involving a great poet among the co-authors of the tombstone project is a delicate task, few people managed to solve it. The quality of the cemetery epitaphs of the golden age of Russian poetry, based on the material of the capital, was characterized by Pushkin:

Merchants, officials of the deceased mausoleums.
A cheap cutter ridiculous ideas,
Above them are inscriptions in both prose and verse.
About virtues, about service and ranks;
Amorous crying over the old widow's horn.
("When out of town, thoughtful, I wander", 1836)

In other words, in the first place is actually rich bad taste, boasting that she is able to pile up entire mausoleums on her graves, in the then sense of the word - imitation of the Mausoleum of Halicarnassus, one of the ancient seven wonders of the world, the gigantic tomb of the Carian king Mausoleum and his sister wife of Artemisia. No matter how much money was invested in these pretentious structures, the inscriptions on them still turned out to be cheap ...

A.S. Pushkin
My epitaph

Here Pushkin is buried; he is with a young muse,
With love, laziness spent a merry age,
He did not do good, but he was a soul,
By God, good man.

Epitaph for a baby. Book. N.S. Volkonsky

In radiance and joyful peace,
At the throne of the eternal creator,
With a smile he looks into earthly exile,
He blesses his mother and prays for his father.

Addressing Kutuzov:

In your coffin delight lives!
He gives us a Russian voice;
He tells us about that year,
When the voice of the people's faith
I called out to your holy gray hair:
"Go save!" You got up and saved.
("In front of the tomb of the saint", 1831)

***
M.Yu. Lermontov

Epitaph

The simple-hearted son of freedom
For feelings, he spared no life;
And true traits of nature
He often liked to write off.

He believed dark predictions
And talismans, and love,
And unnatural desires
He gave his days as a sacrifice.

And in it the soul kept a reserve
Bliss, torment and passions.
He died. Here is his grave.
It was not made for humans.

Epitaph of Napoleon

Yes, no one blames your shadow,
The man of rock! You are with people that rock is above you;
Who knew to elevate you, only he could overthrow:
Great things don't change anything.

***
V.S. Solovyov

Vladimir Solovyov
Lies in this place.
First there was a philosopher
And now he has become a skeleton.
Being kind to others
He was also an enemy to many;
But madly in love
He himself plunged into a ravine.
He lost his soul
Not to mention the body
The devil took her
The dogs ate him.
Passerby! Learn from this example
How pernicious is love, and how useful is faith.

***
I.A. Bunin

The inscription on the tombstone

Bear, Lord, sins and atrocities
Above Your mercy!
Slave of the earth and vain desires
Forgive his sins for his sorrows.
I kept the covenant of love holy in my life:
In the days of longing, against the mind,
I did not harbor a snake of enmity against my brother,
I have forgiven everything, according to your word.
I, knowing the silence of the grave
I, who accepted the sorrows of darkness,
From the bowels earthly earth gospel
Verbs of Unsunseting Beauty!

***
M.I. Tsvetaeva

Epitaph

To the one who lies here under the spring grass,
Forgive, Lord, evil thought and sin!
He was sick, exhausted, out of this world,
He loved angels and children's laughter.

Did not crush the snow-white lilac stars,
Although I wanted to overcome the Lord ...
In all sins he was a tender child,
And so, God forgive him!

Michelangelo Buonarroti

For the beauty that's buried here
Timelessly, there is only one consolation:
Life brought her mortal oblivion,
And now life has been restored by death.
***

Why not to the faces, crumpled by old age,
You came, Death, and plucked my flower?
- Because there is no shelter in heaven
Stained with decay and depravity.
***

Death did not wish to inflict a wound
With weapons of years and an abundance of days
The beauty that rested here - so that she

May the Lord reward your work, and may you have a full reward from the Lord God, to whom you came to rest under His wings!

Poetry
Such a pain....
Our baby is gone...
And the cup is drunk with the edges of grief.
Lived for others
without feeling sorry for yourself.
We remember you
we love you.
It's so easy to imagine you alive
That your death is unbelievable.
People can't live forever
but happy is he whose name will be remembered.
One star has become less on earth.
There is more than one star in the sky.
Do not express grief
Don't cry tears
You have taken joy forever from home.
He was a man, a warrior, a father,
served the Fatherland
and was the creator of fate.
No inscriptions are needed for my stone,
Just say here: he was and he is not!
You, like my own heart,
Can't be forgotten or replaced.
Loving you...
You have walked a short path
did not have time to bloom and left forever.
You don't call me, I won't come to you.
Don't rush to me, I'll wait for you.
I lost my son.
But you are always with me
My boy,
cheerful and lively.
Burning my heart your death burned.
Without you, what is the world and worldly affairs to me.
No more sorrow
than in the abyss of grief,
remember irrevocable happiness.
Here is the love that gave the truth
here is the sadness that wisdom brought
You sleep and we live
You wait and we will come ... Sleep in peace and
Pray to God for us.
Sorry honey,
didn't save you.
The sun has set
and darkness came.
Blessed is he who left the feast of life early.
Not drinking to the bottom of a glass of full wine.
Life is given to everyone only once.
And you passed it in full and without a trace.
You don't call me
I will not come to you.
Don't rush to me
I'll wait for you.
You passed away
From the heart, no. No more grief
What is the pain of loss.
The warmth of your soul
stayed with us. And my heart hurts
And I burn without end.
Under this sky, life is a series of torments,
But will it take pity on us? Never...
Remember, dad, if the wind will carry you
someone's crying
We are crying for you.
Words cannot express all the sorrow and sadness.
You are always with us in our hearts and memories.
Words cannot express all the sorrow and sadness.
You are always with us in our hearts and memories.
The heart does not believe
In bitter loss.
You closed all the doors
And went somewhere.
The heart still does not believe in a bitter loss.
As if the door opened - You went somewhere.
What a pity that your life
Was so short.
But your memory will be eternal.
Why did you leave, dear, to sleep in the damp earth?
Why did you leave me to suffer alone?
The horse subsides
no matter how zealous
The sound is dying
equal to Mozart sound.
We come from darkness
and we go into darkness
don't know what for
don't understand why.
Everything was in him: soul, talent and beauty.
Everything sparkled for us, like a bright dream.
Everything was in him - soul, talent and beauty.
Everything sparkled for us, like a bright dream.
We come here to put flowers,
It is very difficult, my dear, to live without you.
Our pain cannot be measured and cannot be shed in tears.
We will love you forever as a living being.
Passing, stop, pray for me, a sinner.
I was like you, you will be like me.
Words cannot express
Tears do not cry out Our grief.
You are always in our hearts.
Sleep well, my love, in peace.
You've gone your short way
Honest and happy.
When a loved one leaves
There is an emptiness in the soul
Which can't be cured by anything.
When a loved one leaves
emptiness remains in the soul,
that can't be filled with anything.
your bright image
In our memory. Remember me God
And don't leave those who love you.
Why did you leave, dear,
Sleep in the damp earth?
Why did you leave me
Toil alone?
Words cannot express
Do not cry with tears
Our grief.
You are always in our hearts.
Everything was in it
Soul, talent and beauty.
Everything sparkled for us
Like a bright dream.
How we suffer every hour.
But the moment will come in that life
you will meet us again.
We come here
To put flowers.
It's very difficult, dear
We can live without you.
We come here for flowers
Put.
It is very difficult, dear, without you we
live.
What can be expressed in words
When the heart is numb? You, Lord, have done
Whatever you want.
Our pain cannot be measured
And do not shed tears.
We treat you like a living
We will love forever.
How early you left, dear,
Leaving us sadness and pain. Father, into your hands
I convey my spirit.
Thank you, my love, for love and loyalty,
for kindness and tenderness,
for a kind and sensitive heart.
Don't part with your loved ones
They just stop being around.
The earthly path is short,
Memory is eternal.
There will always be a mother's tear for you,
The sadness of a father, the loneliness of a brother,
The grief of grandparents.
Eternal will be a mother's tear for you,
father's sadness, brother's loneliness,
grieve grandparents.
Everything in the world has its time.
Everything above heaven has its time.
There is a time to be born and a time to die.
Love for you, dear son, will die only with us.
Our pain and our grief cannot be expressed in words.
The candle went out in the wind
and a memorial groan...
And you, stepping into silence,
and an empty house.
Friends are found and lost.
They don't die for us.
And these monuments to them
live put as alive.
No mind, no heart, no soul
They don't want to believe that the world
you left the earth
beloved son and brother.
Sleep peacefully, peacefully
you are our own person.
Carried to the grave
our joy and peace.
Fell as if on the run,
didn't do so much...
And as if he broke a string,
wanted so much...
Let the face become younger
anyway, we know it.
And we say: "Lord, God,
receive your servant."
There is eternal silence here
And the free wind roams.
How sad it hurts without you
We live in this world.
Silent your voice forever
and the hot heart has cooled.
Lamp of life for centuries
the breath of death extinguished.
You loved life, and wanted to do a lot,
You are no more, but we do not believe, in our souls you are forever.
We will never heal our pain from that loss.
He died, but the soul is incorruptible
She rushes off to another world
We ask the Lord humbly:
"Accept her and put her to rest!"
It is not in our power to know you, and there is no end to sorrow.
Immeasurable pain that tears apart orphaned hearts...
Quiet leaves, don't make noise, don't wake my friend,
Life is over, there will be no more grief or tears.
Eternal memory of you
in the hearts of relatives.
We regret, weep and mourn
That you stay forever young.
When you're gone, you're still alive
You are in our thoughts and dreams.
We remember you in joy and in pain.
The sorrow and sadness of your loss will stay with us forever.
What could be worse and worse than the loss of a husband and father.
Now admiring you
and confessing love
In the soul, everyone carries with him
part of an infinite soul.
Unable to overcome grief
bear the pain of loss.
Nobody could help you
forgive us, (name), forgive us.
An evil death crept up on me, I left you forever.

And the person we love.
Forgive us under the starry sky
Bring flowers to your stove.
Forgive us for the air
How did you not breathe.
You passed away very early.
Our pain cannot be expressed in words.
Sleep, dear, you are our pain and wound.
The memory of you is always alive.
You passed away too soon
Our pain cannot be expressed in words.
Sleep, dear, you are our pain and wound,
The memory of you is always alive.
To someone who was dear in life.
From those who love and mourn.
There are no words to express
All the pain and sorrow of our soul.
I'm sorry we didn't save your life.
We will not have peace for the rest of the century.
Not enough strength, not enough tears
to measure our grief.
Why, fate, do you punish those
laws of justice bypassing,
who was the best among peers,
who had a golden soul.
Do not express grief, do not cry tears.
You took joy away from home forever
You left your life instantly
And the pain remained forever.
A river with a simple name Life
not as simple as it seems.
It would be better if we knew what we got
at least hold hands.
Here is the dust, the remnants of being,
Where there is no face, where the eyes have already decayed,
A lesson to those who knew how to captivate,
In what prison did my soul live?
Don't know where I turned the way
in what aisle from life passed.
Oh, friend, I have done everything earthly,
I loved and lived on earth.
Forgive us for our love.
did not dare to give you during your lifetime.
You left us, you left us
we are eternal debtors.
Unexpected grief, intentionally burning
the most precious thing in life is lost.
It's a shame life can't be repeated
to give it back to you.
You remain in my heart forever
love is cut off half way.
May life never repeat itself
you can't get out of your memory.
Our dear, beloved,
we will never forget you
and our tears cannot be dried.
We are going to your grave again.
She is always dear to us.
In tears look at the white light
you left us in great sorrow.
We are empty without you and there is no life,
and our days have become painful.
You left us early
Our favorite.
He took away our happiness and joy.
We love you, we are proud of you.
In our memory
You are always alive.
Who irrigates this coffin with tears,
He in vain believes that he will return
His tear to the dry fruit tree:
After all, the dead do not rise in the spring.
You left life incomprehensibly early.
Parents are saddened.
A wound bleeds in their hearts.
Your son is growing up, not knowing the word "mother".
The Lord said:
Hear my word and believer in him who sent
Eternal life has me, and no judgment
comes, but passed from death to life.
The Lord granted me beauty,
The parent gave me only the body;
But if God-given decayed,
Why will a mortal take flesh from death?
Death did not wish to inflict a wound
With weapons of years and an abundance of days
The beauty that rested here - so that she

From this irreversibility to scream ...

That you are not, dear (our dear), with us.

All of us, all of us in this world are perishable
Copper quietly pours from maple leaves ...
May you be blessed forever
That came to flourish and die.

My friend, do not be sad about the past,
Let the irrevocable not gnaw at you.
You can't step into the same river...
