How many up to him{it} all variety of elements which have created the
surprising world around of the person and which make his{its} most essence
tried to result chemists in system...
How many people have staked for the sake of it the life. Many
understood, felt, that there should be such system - the law of the nature,
aspired to open it{him} is and it is vain. It{he} has constructed its{her}
one - periodic system of elements. System of elements of D.I.Mendeleyev.
It was the mighty person, because made him{it} under force only to the
giant. How it was possible to it{him}? Due to what? Due to the of
improbable force to talent, due to a fortress of spirit, due to confidence
that business of it{him} is necessary.
It{He} has appeared in Petersburg silently and imperceptibly, having
overcome on horses a long way from sleepy Tobolsk where it{he} was born, up
to noisy, talkative Moscow and magnificent city on Neva. And how in
unfamiliar big city this blue-eyed young man who is not having neither
notable relationship, nor rich parents differently could appear? Father of
it{him} was director of the Tobolsk grammar school - a post not the god a
message what profitable, and small glass which basically and began to feed
family after father, go blind, has been compelled to leave teaching, too
did not bring the big income. And nevertheless, when it{he} , it was the
big impact for Mendeleev. After all fourteen souls of one children...
Mitia was younger and, similar, the most favourite. In the childhood
it{he} possessed not too a sound health, and in damp Petersburg air and at
all to feel began itself unimportantly. Sometimes he{it} a throat had
blood, and doctors believed, that at him{it} last degree of a consumption
began. It{he} laid in clinic of pedagogical institute where it{he} studied,
when once during detour the main doctor, thinking, that Mendeleyev has
fallen asleep, has told to director:
And , having heard the verdict, sat on beds, has got writing-books
and has there and then plunged into records with lectures.
Institute friends have managed to arrange for Mendeleyev an audience at
court physician Zdekauera, and that, having heard it{him}, has delicately
advised to go on the south. To tell the truth, Zdecauer has given still
advice - seem simply so, just in case Piragavim.
And in Crimea at this time there was a war, and Pies, having rolled up
sleeves, operated since early morning and till the late evening. For days -
tens amputations. Mendeleyev many times saw it{him} from apart, but all did
not dare to approach to it{him}. Pies was more necessary.
Mendeleyev also could not think, that a kind of Simferopol, city, in
general, enough removed from a front line, can make on him{it} such heavy
impression. Restaurants worked, no, hospitals was a little, and around of
city tents with a red cross have crowded. And everywhere ...
Mendeleyev here knew nobody. Pies seem inaccessible. And the graduate
of the capital institute who has arrived on consultation to find to itself
put here, certainly, could not. And it{he} writes to the brother in the
letter:
But at last Mendeleyev before Проговым. The great doctor with
unexpected attentiveness examines so strange here the patient and... Grants
to it{him} a life! Mendeleyev has for ever remembered that has told to
it{him} of Pies: .
The inspired Mendeleyev is born{carried} to Odessa. With it{him} only
that on it{him}, yes is a little money, but all so is good, ahead has put -
tempting and interesting so much, now it is necessary to hasten, because
time lost in burdensome expectation, to not return any more.
To Odessa at Mendeleyev a direction. It{he} has received there a place
of the teacher of natural sciences, from him{it} there the small
laboratory, the first laboratory, and there and then, near at hand -
excellent library.
Here, in southern seaside city, it{he} starts to search - of what thought already for a long time and to that
it{he} will devote all life.
Half-year in Odessa, and Mendeleyev again in Petersburg. It{he} has
arrived not with empty hands: work which it{he} has brought - the most thin
and most laborious research on specific volumes. It actually his{its}
dissertation. She{it} gives it{him} the first scientific degree of the
master. The master of physics and chemistry. To Mendeleyev it was executed
then only twenty two years.
It was his{its} first big victory. But a victory, which pleasure has
saddened to mountain: favourite sister who has arrived together with
it{him} from Tobolsk has died. And now it{he} has remained in Petersburg
one. Sometimes it{him} pulls home - look on native places, to meet
relatives, but this dream even long decades will be dream. And only on a
slope of years, already world famous scientist, coming back from
expedition{dispatch}, it{he} will make a hook to see Tobolsk. It will be
short returning, but full of disappointments.
And in October of the same year when it{he} became the master.
Mendeleyev has struck all friends: it{he} has protected the second
dissertation. Of course - a case ! Scientists have not without hesitation
accepted Mendeleyev's second work though it and was the serious
contribution to chemistry . But too all this was unusual...
And then young Mendeleyev on the post carriage which was rolled quickly
with the four of horses, goes in the first business trip - through Warsaw -
further, to the well-known Heidelberg, in laboratory of the patriarch .
Mendeleyev trusted, that the days which have been lead{which have been
carried out} to laboratories of the Heidelberg university, near to the
glorified chemist, to it{him} will be useful, but it{he} was mistaken.
Bunzer, borrowed{occupied} with the experiences, has met the young Russian
colleague politely, but it is constrained. And in laboratory where to
Mendeleyev have allocated a place, there was all as it is impossible more
inconsistently: in narrowness students crowded, there was no utensils,
reactants. Mendeleyev has immediately understood, that here it{he} only
will waste time. With a kind of the deepest regret has told Bunzeru, that
it{he} is unhealthy, has thanked for so hospitable hospitality and has
there and then moved down from a university apartment. And soon again in a
way. This time - to Paris, to Celerony - to that Caleroni, better which
nobody could do{make} chemical devices and tools. Most exact of all exact
weights because others did not suit his{its} work were necessary for
Mendeleyev.
It{He} has returned to Heidelberg where has removed{has taken off} tiny
under laboratory and where it{he} was waited already with the concerned
letter of the trustee of the Petersburg educational district - it is
visible, messages on trick with have reached.
Mendeleyev has answered: .
It did not hasten home - and not because did not wish to see the city,
already for a long time becoming to it{him} native. It{he} did not hasten
because in Heidelberg to it{him} was well worked, it{he} felt like free,
independent. And consequently still, that here it{he} has found new
friends.
Ivan Setchenov, Alexander Borodin, Dmitry Mendeleyev - they were then
are young, their names did not sound yet so loudly, but each of them was
already known for the works. All three excitedly were engaged in chemistry.
Mendeleyev tried to comprehend essence of the phenomena occuring at a level
considerably more thin, rather than molecular, and has opened temperature
of absolute boiling. Setchenov has penetrated into chemistry of gas
exchange in living tissues, and the author of with ecstasy
pottered with test tubes and flasks and by then was the author of several
large printed works in chemistry.
To Troy great Russian. Small . They worked not hands, and in
the evenings converged for is expected, shared everything, that has
collected for a day. Hardly later, when to them has joined Methnicov, they
swore, that if from them in a life it will be difficult for somebody,
everyone will gather to come to the aid. They have constrained this oath.
... And in Heidelberg they had happy time. In work all was got on - and
consequently the mood was fine, and they had a rest too selflessly.
frequently sat down a grand piano, and that all time went in the next small
town to listen to the well-known body.
Together with Borodinym Mendeleyev quite often went to mountains. That
them attracted... Unless it is possible to tell about it? They liked to go
upwards on difficult road, clinging for stones, sometimes in a dirty and
in a snow. And without it in a life something lacked. As well Dmitry
Ivanovich itself has written about it - to the girlfriend of sister Olga,
the future wife. As it{him} pulled then to and as much later it{he} will
be ready to give everything, everything if only to leave it{her}. As well
