Maxim Gorky and Calcutta: a retrospection on the day of 154th birth anniversary of the writer
Alexey Maximovich Peshkov, popularly known as Maxim Gorky, was a Russian writer and political activist. Five times nominee for the Nobel Prize in Literature. He was born on March 28, 1868 in Nizhny Novgorod, Russian Empire.
The most read work of the Russian literature, translated in many languages of India is Maxim Gorky's novel "Mother" (1906). It inspires many generations of people, dreaming about better and rightful life.
From the beginning of the 20th century Kolkata was well introduced to Maxim Gorky and his activities. Great interest about the writer-activist was shown by the freedom-loving people of Bengal. One can witness information about the arrest of Maxim Gorky, published in the newspapers like 'The Bengalee', 'The Englishman", etc. Very soon Gorky became a close relative to the oppressed people of colonial India.
At the height of the anti-British movement in 1905, the first biography of Maxim Gorky was published in the January edition of the journal 'Bharat Mahila'. The furst translation of Gorky's story was published in 'Jahnavi' journal in 1913. Since then Gorky inspired freedom fighters in India.
In 1920-22 Gorky's 'Chelkash' was introduced in the syllabus of the British department of the Intermediate course of the University of Calcutta. One can also find Gorky's 'Mother' in the hands of Labanya, the main female character of Rabindranath Tagore's novel 'Shesher Kabita' ('Last Poem'), written in 1928. Much earlier in 1917in his story 'Poila Number 1' Tagore introduced Gorky to the literary circle of India through the discussion on contemporary short stories.
Russian House in Kolkata bears the name of this great Russian writer as Gorky Sadan. Overthrowing the colonial hangover from the street where the Russian House stands, known earlier as Victoria Terrace, on 16 March 1987, the street was renamed as Gorky Terrace on the eve of the 120th birth anniversary of the writer.

28 March this year marks the 155th birth anniversary of Maxim Gorky, a writer, playwright and prose writer who stood at the origins of the USSR Writers' Union and was its first chairman.
The real name of the writer is Alexei Maksimovich Peshkov. The pseudonym Gorky ("bitter") characterizes not only his fate, but also the direction of creativity. So, Alexei's life was bitter, and he wrote about the bitter fate of the destitute. He took his literary name in honor of his father, whom he loved very much and lost early.
He gained literary fame in the mid-1890s thanks to the colorful image of the writer "from the tramps." In 1892, Gorky first published the story Makar Chudra. Subsequently, he gained fame as the author of works in a revolutionary spirit. The collection "Essays and Stories" and the novel "Mother" had considerable success, and his plays "Petty Bourgeois" and "At the Bottom" were staged at the Moscow Art Theater. Chekhov.
In his works, the writer talked about his dream, about "new people" - free, courageous, purposeful, capable of achieving transcendental goals beyond the bounds of the possible.
Gorky was nominated for the Nobel Prize 5 times, and his works were published during his lifetime in large numbers. The writer's works were written in an accessible language, understandable to everyone. He was also put on a par with Pushkin and Tolstoy.

28 марта этого года исполнилось 155 лет со дня рождения Максима Горького — писателя, драматурга и прозаика, который стоял у истоков создания Союза писателей СССР и был его первым председателем.
Настоящее имя писателя — Алексей Максимович Пешков. Псевдоним характеризует не только его судьбу, но и направление творчества. Так, жизнь Алексея была горькой, и писал он про горькую участь обездоленных. Свое литературное имя он взял в честь отца, которого очень любил и рано потерял.
Литературную известность он приобрел в середине 1890-х годов благодаря колоритному образу писателя «из босяков». В 1892 году Горький впервые опубликовал рассказ «Макар Чудра». Впоследствии получил известность как автор произведений в революционном духе. Значительный успех имели сборник «Очерки и рассказы» и роман «Мать», а его пьесы «Мещане» и «На дне» были поставлены на сцене МХТ им. Чехова.
В произведениях писатель рассказывал о своей мечте, о «новых людях» — свободных, смелых, целеустремленных, способных добиться запредельных целей за гранью возможного.
Горького 5 раз выдвигали на получение Нобелевской премии, а его труды издавались при жизни большими тиражами. Произведения писателя были написаны доступным языком, понятным каждому. Также его ставили в один ряд с Пушкиным и Толстым.
