The person who remembers Relatives

Ilona Tyuryaeva, a member of the Russky Mir Foundation, met with students from the Pridnestrovian State University. Future journalists, historians, sociologists are in the audience of the main university of the republic. The People's Representative is represented by Zinaida Todorashko, the head of the State Service for Management of Documentation and Archives.

 "I love you, life" and "Irrevocable worlds" - the so-called books by Ilona Tyuryaeva, which she presented at the end of last year. Today, the deputy shares her experience of research with young people. Its visible, tangible part is a small exhibition from personal archives of Ilona Tyuryaeva, where family relics, letters, documents, awards and even a splinter of the Berlin Wall were presented.

The author began as a child to investigate the history of her family. The interest to the family album caused it. Young Ilona began to ask grandmother Militsa Konstantinovna Bukanova (Prokhorova), who is depicted in the pictures. Remember all the information was impossible, and she began under her dictation to describe each photo. Then there was a need to systematize the information, then she wanted to know not only who these people were, but also what their nature was, habits, at what historical time they lived. The Internet, correspondence with archives, museums, military commissariats, trips to various cities, witnesses of historical events were still alive.

Grandmother of Ilona Tyuryaeva did not live up to the publication of books, in the spring of the year before last she died at the age of 97 years. She saw the manuscripts, the first art sketches, and blessed my granddaughter for writing the book-chronicles of the family "Irrevocable worlds". Its name is inspired by the famous poem by Yevgeny Yevtushenko "There are no uninteresting people in the world". The book-study is of a genealogical nature, it describes the history of the family along with the lines of the grandmother.

The idea of ​​writing the second book appeared in the year of the 100^th anniversary of the October Revolution and the 100th anniversary of her grandfather, Konstantin Bukanov, the husband of Militsa Konstantinovna. The working title of the book was symbolic - "Rovesnik epoch". Then the author chose another one: "I love you, life, and I want you to become better". These words from the famous song, in her opinion, perfectly reflect the character of the protagonist, the content of the book, its spirit and the soul of the author.

A special theme in the author's studies is the Great Patriotic War. This is not accidental, as both the grandfather and the grandmother of the parliamentarian fought. As a child, she was always happy when they took her with them to meet with fellow soldiers. Hence the tremulous attitude towards those who died defending their country in the "1940^th, powder years".

The peculiarity of research work is that it cannot be completed. This is the opinion of Ilona Tyuryayeva. This means that it remains for us to wait for her new studies, her new books. Family and historical facts will be in them as pearls on a string.

Ilona Tyuryaeva, deputy of the Supreme Council in conclusion of the conversation with the students handed over the books she had created (in printed and electronic versions) to the university library.
