Despite the fact that the poet's work has often been criticized, Mikhalkov's contribution to Russian literature is undeniable. Today, Rossiyskaya Gazeta decided to recall the most significant and famous works of Sergei Mikhalkov. Many have known them since childhood.
Hymn
The text of the Russian anthem was written by Mikhalkov in 2000. It's no secret that it is based on the anthem of the Soviet Union. In total, Sergei Vladimirovich had a hand in the national anthem three times: the first time in 1943, when the country's leadership decided to abandon the "International"; the second time in 1977, when the new Constitution of the country appeared; and the third time in 2000 already in new Russia.
Uncle Styopa
A poem about Stepanov Stepan, distinguished by his enormous growth, was first published in 1936. The poems "Uncle Styopa" tell about a Soviet man with a positive character. Uncle Styopa became the hero of three more continuation poems: "Uncle Styopa is a policeman", "Uncle Styopa and Yegor" and "Uncle Styopa is a veteran". Poems about Uncle Styopa became so popular that "Uncle Styopa" sweets appeared, and monuments were erected to the character in Moscow and the Kemerovo region.

And by the name of Stepan,
Of the regional giants

There was a tram number ten (One rhyme)
Another famous poem by Mikhalkov tells about the events in the N10 tram, which once walked along the Boulevard Ring of the capital. This satirical story about passengers ends instructively: "Old age must be respected!" The poem was filmed.
Thomas
Another satire, this time about the fact that elders should not only be respected, but listened to and trusted. Pioneer Foma did not take a word for what he heard, did everything contrary to the advice of others. This went on until the stubborn Thomas had a dream where he was eaten by a crocodile. As well as poems about the tram, this story was filmed.

What do you have?
A poem about boasting in the evening. The guys tell each other about what they have: we have gas in our apartment, and we have running water, I have a nail in my pocket, someone's cat gave birth to kittens. But the main conclusion, no matter what the guys argued about, is that different mothers are needed, and it doesn’t matter who they work for.
And from our window
Red Square is visible!
And from your window
Just a little street.
Mikhalkov's works occupy a prominent place in Soviet and Russian literature. His poems, children's poems, fables, plays, scripts for films and, finally, the words to three hymns deservedly brought him all-Union and all-Russian fame and fame.
short biography
Mikhalkov Sergey Vladimirovich was born in 1913 in Moscow in a family that came from an ancient noble family. His childhood passed in The boy received an excellent education at home. Already in early childhood, he became interested in literature and poetry. As a child, he began to write poetry. He wrote his first poem when he was only nine years old.
After some time, the family moved to the Stavropol Territory. In the late 1920s, he began publishing in local newspapers. Then he moved to Moscow, where he was forced to do physical work for some time. However, he never abandoned his studies in poetry. The young poet became famous throughout the country in 1935, when his poem "Uncle Styopa" was published. This was followed by the release of a collection of poems, which strengthened his fame. During the war years, he worked at the same time wrote the anthem. After the victory, he continued to publish his works, was engaged in active social activities, founded the Wick magazine. played an important role in the development of domestic literature, drama, poetry. The famous poet died in 2009.
Early writings
The first poems of the poet immediately attracted attention. The father noticed his son's talent and somehow showed his poems to the poet A. Bezymensky, who approved the young man's first experiments. One of the author's first works is called "The Road", in which he demonstrated his mastery of rhyme and language.
Mikhalkov's works are distinguished by brevity, conciseness and unusual expressiveness, largely due to the fact that the poet wrote from childhood in the best traditions of Russian classical literature. He grew up on Pushkin's poems and Krylov's fables, on the works of Mayakovsky and Yesenin. It is not surprising, therefore, that even his first literary experiments were very successful. Since 1933, his works have been regularly published in leading domestic magazines. One of the most famous works of this period is the poem "Svetlana".
Success
Mikhalkov's works were very popular and loved by readers even before his most famous children's poem was published. Glory children's writer strengthened the success of a new composition - the poem "Three Citizens", which he wrote during his participation in the competition for the best pioneer song.
After that, the author decided to try himself in a different genre and set about creating his own, probably the most famous work - the poem "Uncle Styopa". The image of a kind, simple-hearted giant, who is ready to help at any time, immediately gained all-Union love.
It took the poet several decades to create the famous tetralogy. After the war, the poem "Uncle Styopa is a policeman" and two others were published. In them, the main character, remaining the same good-natured giant, gradually became more lyrical. Particularly touching, perhaps, is the part "Uncle Styopa and Yegor", in which the poet introduced the image of the protagonist's son.
Other writings
Mikhalkov's works became popular largely due to their optimism, lively and cheerful language, as well as deep worldly wisdom. In the pre-war period, another of his famous poems “What about you?” Was published, which resembles a counting rhyme in form, but nevertheless is imbued with a serious philosophical meaning and sound.
Another characteristic feature of Mikhalkov's work is that he often created heroes who could not always be a role model. On the contrary, quite often, in the images of his characters, he ridiculed the shortcomings that are inherent in children: laziness, effeminacy, rudeness, boasting. Many of his phrases turned out to be so well-aimed and witty that they turned into a proverb. His rhyme is extremely simple and is remembered literally from the first time (for example, his famous "Song of Friends", which is probably known to every child).
Works of the war years
During the war years, the poet worked as a correspondent, he visited many front lines, received a number of high awards for bravery. His military lyrics, like the works of Tvardovsky, are distinguished by their simplicity and easy language, reminiscent of folk songs, which immediately made it popular. Among the works of this period are, for example, the poems "A soldier lies behind the huts ...", "Letter home" and others. It is noteworthy that it is this poet who owns the epitaph on
Fables, plays, scripts
In the mid-1940s, Mikhalkov, on the advice of the writer Tolstoy, decided to try his hand at a new genre - writing fables (he had loved Krylov since childhood). His first works in this genre were a great success. In total, he wrote about two hundred fables, which were included in the golden fund of Russian literature. The poet also wrote the script for some famous Soviet films, one of the most significant is the comedy "Three Plus Two", based on his play.
A feature of the poet's work is that he was able to express very serious and deep thoughts in the most accessible form, while entertaining and teaching. Such, for example, is his poem "Sasha's porridge."
Mikhalkov's books are still sold in huge numbers in our country.
