In this article we will tell you where the phrase "Calmly, Masha, I Dubrovsky" came from in everyday colloquial speech. Why this phrase became winged, and with what it can be connected, why the expression, albeit a little paraphrased, from Pushkin’s novel with a tragic end, where two young lives could not unite in one common destiny, stood in a row with jokes and even jokes.
The genius of the pen, or Everything was wrong
Where did the phrase “Calmly, Masha, I Dubrovsky” come from in this context in our life? This expression in most cases provokes a reaction of laughter or can reassure and warn that the situation is “under control”. It is mistakenly believed that this phrase belongs to the pen of the Russian poet Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin, who, of course, is the progenitor of this “masterpiece”, but in the work itself the protagonist says: “I am Dubrovsky, you should not be afraid of my name.” I would also like to note that it was in this context that this phrase was not used in any of the adaptations of Pushkin's works.
Song, joke
Back in 1997, Grebenshchikov wrote the song Dubrovsky. Everything in it is complicated and understandable only to the author himself, but I would like to recall one “bearded” joke. Night. The thief climbed into the room through the balcony, went to the bed and said: "Calm down, Masha, I'm Dubrovsky!" A dull thump is heard and a hoarse male voice replies: “Calmly, Dubrovsky, I'm not Masha!” Remembered? Yes, it’s funny and funny, but again I would like to return to why this phrase has become a joke. Perhaps the irony is that moment that Dubrovsky, a bold and impudent robber, could not help himself, overestimated his strengths and capabilities. And so the raid of irony so tightly rooted in the expression "Calmly, Masha, I am Dubrovsky!" Where the phrase comes from, who the author is not known for certain. One thing can be said that this person has a great sense of humor, knows how to give a good mood. And remember, friends, that in this life it is only up to you to decide how to live it, whether in joy or in despondency.
Just don’t worry!
His Majesty Humor! Indeed, it was thanks to him that the famous expression appeared. Everything that causes laughter and a smile in our life can be attributed to his spell. The ability to laugh in difficult life situations is a sign of highly developed intelligence. And if something out of the ordinary happens, then I want to see not a hysterically screaming subject, but to be next to someone who calmly says: “Calmly, Masha, I am Dubrovsky!” Where the phrase came from in our everyday life was said above. But I want to express admiration for that witty person who, even in the tragic moments of life, is able to reduce the already high voltage.
The phrase: “Calmly, Masha, I am Dubrovsky,” which causes a smile, may have a different meaning, namely, to warn, on the one hand, to remain calm, on the other hand, may indicate the fact that, in contrast to the tough guy, there will always be someone who much cooler. Hence the phrase: “Calmly, Masha, I am Dubrovsky!” came to our life? From where, in a moment of great excitement, a share of a healthy sense of humor is appreciated, when many of us would prefer to hear this very catchy expression, rather than the even more frightening “don't worry”.
