UAE / Vladimir Rayevsky, Dubai
The stand-up lecture "Derzhava Nesmeyana" by Vladimir Rayevsky, a historical journalist and TV presenter, is a new format in which the author combines two genres: an academic lecture and a completely non-academic stand-up.
Tyutchev said: "The history of Russia before Peter the Great is one continuous memorial service, after that — one criminal case"
But that doesn’t mean we can’t laugh at ourselves. Moreover — the absolute joking inviolability of our history has turned Russia into the Derzhava Nesmeiana. But the bewitched tsarevna will remain unloved until she is laughed at
Tsarist special services, puzzled by birds, hurray-patriots, surrendering Moscow and going to the enemies, Old Russian chronicles with rewriting of history, religious ecstasy as a reason for rebellion, Grozny and Stalin — ridiculous characters of comedy, national traitors and patriots in eternal battle — our history, of course, a tragedy, but also a comedy: everything is like in life.
So let’s try to smile — we all need it now.
