Introduction
Sevastyanov Alexander Nikitich is a popular Russian public and political figure in certain circles, the former co-chairman of the National Power Party of Russia (NDPR), banned in 2003, the author of extremist fiction and journalistic works. Two of them are included in the Federal lists.
Alexander Sevastyanov: biography, early years
A. N. Sevastyanov was born on April 11, 1954 in Moscow in the family of a world-famous philologist. After the birth of their son, the family moved to Kaliningrad. When Alexander was 13, his father left the family, and difficult days came for the boy and his mother. From the age of 14, the young man had to get acquainted with hard physical labor: on someone else's passport, he had to earn extra money as a laborer, painter, carpenter, loader. He learned to play billiards, which became an additional source of income.
Marriage
In 1972, the family returned to Moscow, where Alexander transferred to the correspondence department of Moscow State University and began working as an elevator conductor in the university's scientific library. He married a half Jewish woman. The marriage was very unsuccessful, lasting only five years. But he gave, according to Alexander, invaluable experience: having studied the environment of his wife, he comprehended the features of Jewish national psychology and the subtleties, as he believes, of the incompatibility of Russian and Jewish characters.
Having met the girl he truly fell in love with, Alexander leaves his wife without hesitation. The first reckless marriage cost the young man his ancestral apartment, which was left to his wife.
Family
With his second wife, whom he affectionately calls Lucy, Alexander Nikitich lived for more than thirty years. Sevastyanov calls the new marriage surprisingly happy. Thanks to this union, as he believes, his life took place. His wife Lyudmila Sevastyanov calls a reliable support, a person who shares his views. Thanks to his wife, her tireless care of the house and children, he is free from the need to deal with everyday problems. The “Russian spirit” is deliberately cultivated in the family, it maintains the Russian cultural atmosphere that he absorbed from his ancestors.
Children and grandchildren
Six children grew up in the family, three grandchildren are growing up. The couple live in a five-room state apartment. The eldest son worked as a lawyer, died under unclear circumstances. Left a widow and a son. The eldest daughter works as a textile artist, she lives at her husband's place of service with her husband, an officer and children.
The middle son is an architect, the middle daughter, who became a generalist artist and designer, married a businessman. The two younger children of the Sevastyanovs live with their parents. The schoolboy son is only a year older than their first grandchild.
All members of the family love each other dearly and live very friendly. Their parents raised them in the belief that the strongest and most reliable support in the world is the family.
Education
In 1977, Sevastyanov Alexander Nikitich graduated from Moscow State University (philological faculty), in 1983 - postgraduate studies at the Faculty of Journalism. He is a candidate of philological sciences.
Creativity
In the early 90s on trialRussian reader for the first time presented his works Sevastyanov Alexander Nikitich. His books were distinguished by a bright nationalist orientation. The author promoted national-democratic, anti-Semitic, anti-liberal and anti-Soviet ideas in them.
Sevastyanov Alexander Nikitich is a member of creative organizations: the Union of Writers, the Union of Journalists, the Union of Writers, the Slavic Union of Journalists, the Association of Art Critics.
Activities
As Sevastyanov himself said in his autobiography, there was a time when he dreamed of making a career as a film director. But he soon realized that he would not be able to combine this profession with family life. Therefore, he decided in principle not to make any career, preferring to engage in creativity - to write books and articles. He studied in absentia in graduate school, because he did not want to join the CPSU. Three and a half years worked as a mechanic on duty. As Alexander Nikitich admits, he did not amass any we alth through his activities: he has neither a car nor a dacha.
Sevastyanov Alexander Nikitich is the author and co-author of several bills: “draft constitution”, “on the divided position of the Russian nation”, “on the Russian people”. In 2002, he was elected by the participants of the founding congress of the NDPR as co-chairman of the party. Sevastyanov Alexander Nikitich is also one of the organizers of the "Russian Marches", held annually on November 4 in different cities of Russia. It is known that in 2004 he published a list that included the names of journalists, political and public figures,whom the author classified as “not friends of the Russian people.”
Interests
There is a library in the Sevastyanovs' house, which he collects throughout his life. Alexander Nikitich regrets that his children read little: either because of lack of time, or just such a generation - not reading.
He also has some good guitars (seven strings). This instrument, by its nature exclusively Russian, Sevastyanov considers completely and undeservedly forgotten, supplanted by the "six-string". Playing the seven-string guitar is no longer taught in Russia. Alexander Nikitich knows a considerable number of Russian romances and songs. Somehow I even recorded a disc of my favorite romances. Occasionally sings them with friends.
Alexander Sevastyanov complains about the lack of free time, but if he still has it, he spends it with his family: playing with children, visiting museums. His interest as an art historian has always been riveted to graphics, ceramics, edged weapons. Alexander Nikitich's favorite vacation spot is the Crimea, which he considers a Russian shrine.
Unfortunately, he has few close friends. The politician considers his happiness and grief that he has always been friends with people much older than himself. He has already led many to the other world.
Charge of anti-Semitism
In 2007, after the 20th Moscow International Book Fair, which displayed books by Y. Petukhov, Y. Mukhin, A. Savelyev and A. Sevastyanov, the Moscow Bureau for Human Rights sent an application to the Prosecutor General's Office RF. The authors of the books were accused of promoting outspokenanti-Semitism.”
Russian nationalism: its friends and enemies
In accordance with the decision of the Meshchansky District Court of Moscow, held in August 2013, Sevastyanov's book, the title of which was placed in the title of the section, is banned in Russia and included in the Federal List.
The first edition of the book about nationalists was published in 2001. The work was published by Russkaya Pravda with a circulation of 3,000 copies. According to the annotation to the book, readers were offered a principled, fascinating, important and very timely discussion that unfolded on the pages of the leading Russian media on the problems of Russian nationalism. This edition is already considered a bibliographic rarity.
The second edition of the book (significantly supplemented) was also published by the Russkaya Pravda publishing house. A. N. Sevastyanov acted as editor and author of the preface, in which he presented the background to the birth of this fascinating collection and emphasized its enduring informative value.
On Russian-Jewish relations
Another work of A. N. Sevastyanov, banned and included in the Federal List, is “What the Jews Want from Us”. The book was published by Russkaya Pravda in 2001 and aroused great interest.
The second edition, significantly expanded and revised, was published in 2008. In the annotation to the book, readers are invited to familiarize themselves with the results of "scientific", supposedly based on a wide base of documentarysources, studies of Jewish origin. The purpose of the publication was to initiate a public discussion on the difficult and important problem of the relationship between the two ethnic groups, Jewish and Russian, on the territory of Russia.
The main conclusion of the author is the assertion that there are two options for the development of relations between the two peoples that are favorable for Russians. One of them is to ensure the total assimilation of Jews with Russians, the second is to ensure the complete emigration of all Jews from the country.
