On May 16, 1924, the first issue of the Murzilka magazine was published in the Soviet Union, intended for younger children. school age- from 6 to 12 years old, which very quickly became a popular children's literary and artistic publication.
Murzilka traces its history back to 1879, when the Canadian artist and poet Palmer Cox created a cycle of poems with his illustrations about the little Brownie people - small people, relatives of brownies, with brown unkempt hair (for which were called "brownies"). Appearing for the first time in Wide Awake magazine, they began a triumphal procession, first across America, and then around the world. They got to Russia thanks to the famous writer Anna Khvolson, who made a free translation of Cox's texts, giving the characters other names. Thus the name Murzilka was born.
In 1913, Khvolson's book The New Murzilka. Amazing adventures and wanderings of little forest men, where the main character was Murzilka - a man in a tailcoat, with a cane and a monocle. These tales were very popular, but after the revolution of 1917 the book was no longer published, and everyone forgot about this hero.
Again, Murzilka was remembered in 1924, when a new children's magazine was created under Rabochaya Gazeta, and everyone liked this name. But don't put it on the cover Soviet magazine brownie! Therefore, a red outbred puppy became Murzilka, who accompanied his master, the boy Petka, everywhere. But such a Murzilka did not last long, and in 1937 a new Murzilka appeared - a kind of fluffy yellow creature, which, having undergone some changes, has survived to this day. Since then, the symbol of the Murzilka children's edition has been a fluffy yellow character, wearing a red beret and scarf. And the kids really like it.
IN Soviet time it was a children's monthly magazine of the Komsomol Central Committee and the Central Council of the All-Union Pioneer Organization. IN AND. Lenin. It was designed for Octobrists, younger schoolchildren, pupils of older groups of kindergartens. The main task of "Murzilka" was the communist education of children in the spirit of Soviet patriotism, respect for work, collectivism and camaraderie. The magazine published stories, poems, fairy tales, essays and pictures about the creative work of the Soviet people, the heroic past of the Motherland. In a lively, entertaining and accessible form, he told the children about the history of the USSR, work, nature, school life, October affairs, etc. Well-known figures of literature and art of the Soviet period participated in the creation and work of the magazine. The best children's writers were published on the pages of Murzilka: Samuil Marshak, Korney Chukovsky, Sergey Mikhalkov, Boris Zakhoder, Agniya Barto, Mikhail Prishvin, Konstantin Paustovsky, Elena Blaginina, Nikolai Nosov, Valentin Berestov, Yuri Korinets, Irina Tokmakova, Eduard Uspensky, Andrey Usachev, Marina Moskvina, Viktor Lunin, Leonid Yakhnin, Mikhail Yasnov and others.
The magazine "Murzilka" is still published. In 2011, it was listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as "the longest-running children's magazine". Over the long history of the existence of the beloved children's magazine, its release has never been interrupted.

On May 16, 1924, the first issue of a magazine for children from 6 to 12 years old, Murzilka, was published in the Soviet Union.
The history of Murzilka began in 1879, when the Canadian artist Palmer Cox created a series of drawings about brownies (Brownie) - these are the closest relatives of brownies, small men, about 90 centimeters tall, similar to little elves with brown unkempt hair and bright blue eyes (because of the brown hair they are called "brownies"). Their skin is predominantly fair, although brownie skin color depends on where they live and what they eat. These creatures come at night and finish what the servants did not have time to do. But this was only a test before the real creation of those images that will subsequently conquer the public. So in 1881, the same brownies appeared in the magazine Wide Awake, which began a triumphal procession, first across America, and then around the world.
In February 1883, Cox began publishing in the New York children's publication St. Nicholas" pictures with brownies, accompanied by poems about the adventures of heroes. And four years later, the first book "The Brownies, Their Book" was published, where a collection of stories about brownies was collected and which sold a million copies. In total, before his death in 1924, Palmer Cox created 15 original books about brownies.
By the way, as such, Cox's brownies did not have names - they were called by characteristic nicknames, such as Chinese, Sailor, Dandy, Jockey, Russian, Hindu, King, Student, Policeman, Canadian, etc.
For the first time, Murzilka and his friends appeared on the pages of the Sincere Word magazine in 1887 in the fairy tale "A boy is the size of a finger, a girl is the size of a fingernail." The author of this fairy tale was the famous writer Anna Borisovna Khvolson, and the illustrations were the drawings of the artist Palmer Cox. The first edition of The Kingdom of the Little Ones, which included 27 stories and 182 drawings, was published in 1889, followed by reprints in 1898, 1902 and 1915.
In 1913, a book was published in Russia with drawings by Palmer Cox and Russian text from Anna Khvolson “The New Murzilka. Amazing adventures and wanderings of little forest men. Anna Khvolson made a free translation of Cox's texts, giving the characters other names: Maz-Peremaz, Dedko-Bearded, Znayka, Dunno, clever Skok, hunter Mick, Turntable, Chinese Chi-ka-chi, Indian Ski, Microbka, American John, etc. P. Well, actually Murzilka, on whose behalf the story was told.
And it turned out that Murzilka is incredibly similar to the famous Dunno known to us. He is the same braggart, lazy and buzzer, because of his character he constantly gets into various troubles. However, these two heroes also have differences. Murzilka, for example, is a true dandy. A tailcoat or a long coat, a top hat, boots with narrow toes, a cane and a monocle are indispensable components of his everyday costume. So Dunno's predilection for provocatively bright tones in clothes would have been unpleasantly struck by the refined taste of Murzilka. But this difference is purely external. Although the character of Murzilka or, as his friends call him, "Empty Head" is quite similar to the character of his literary descendant, Dunno is written out in much more detail and volume. And if Khvolson's hero is deliberately caricatured and conditional, then Nosov's is a lively, charming and recognizable boy. Therefore, probably, readers only laugh at the careless and boastful Murzilka, but Dunno often sympathize, sincerely pity and love him.
So, the name Murzilka was born in 1913. Two years later, Anna Khvelson releases an independent work called “The Kingdom of Babies. The Adventures of Murzilka and the Forest Men, which was illustrated by the works of the same Palmer Cox, but since it was not included in the official brownie bibliography, it can be considered a remake. It was a boy in a black tailcoat, with a huge white flower in his buttonhole, in a silk top hat and long-nosed boots that were fashionable at that time .. And he always had an elegant cane and a monocle in his hands. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, these fairy tales were very popular. Murzilka himself, according to the plot of the tale, constantly got into some funny stories. But after the 1917 revolution, the book was no longer published, and everyone forgot about this hero.
The next time Murzilka was remembered was in 1924, when a new children's magazine was created under Rabochaya Gazeta. Some of the founders remembered this name and it was adopted almost unanimously. But do not put it on the cover of a brownie! Therefore, a red outbred puppy became Murzilka, who accompanied his master, the boy Petka, everywhere. His friends also changed - now they were pioneers, Octobrists, as well as their parents. However, the puppy did not last long - he soon disappeared, and Petka subsequently left the pages of the magazine.
It is traditionally believed that a certain fluffy yellow creature was born by the artist Aminadav Kanevsky at the request of the editors in 1937. However, back in the 50s, Murzilka was a little man wearing an acorn hat on his head instead of a beret. So he appeared in several cartoons, the last of which - "Murzilka on the satellite" - was created in 1960. It was this beret that later became an indispensable attribute of Murzilka, when he turned yellow and overgrown. Soon other heroes began to appear in this magazine - the evil sorceress Yabeda-Koryabeda, the talking cat Shunka, Magpie-Balabolka, Sportlendik and Ladybug. All these characters have become the main headings of the magazine - funny and entertaining stories, curiosity questions, sports pages, stories about nature.
The best children's writers were published on the pages of Murzilka: Samuil Marshak, Korney Chukovsky, Sergei Mikhalkov, Boris Zakhoder, Agniya Barto. “Murzilka” instilled in the youngest children a love of learning with the help of bright pictures, interestingly played plots and provocative rhymes. In 1977 - 1983. the magazine published "A detective-mysterious story about Yabeda-Koryabeda and her 12 agents" (author and artist A. Semyonov) and its continuation. Often the magazine took on far from children's topics. To kids who had only recently learned to read, "Murzilka" told about the conquest of space, the construction of the DneproGES, the Olympics-80, and even interpreted the ideology of the party - "Octobers about the Communists."
The magazine "Murzilka" is still published. It is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as "the longest-running children's magazine".
TO " Komsomolskaya Pravda". In 1934-1944 it was published by the Children's Literature Publishing House, after which it became the magazine of the Komsomol Central Committee.
The image of Murzilka was invented back in 1887 by the Russian writer Anna Khvolson. In her fairy tales from the series "The Kingdom of the Little Ones. The Adventures of Murzilka and the Forest Men", published in the popular children's magazine "Soulful Word", this character was a little forest man in a tailcoat, with a cane and a monocle. By 1908, it was already so popular that the publishers began to publish the newspaper Murzilka's Journal as an appendix to the Sincere Word.
In 1937, the famous artist Aminadav Kanevsky created a new image of Murzilka, which has been preserved in the magazine to this day. This is a yellow and fluffy magical hero in a red beret and scarf, with a camera over his shoulder. He is the same age as his readers, cheerful, resourceful, inquisitive and mischievous.
Famous writers and poets Korney Chukovsky, Arkady Gaidar, Samuil Marshak, Mikhail Zoshchenko, Daniil Kharms and Agniya Barto were published in Murzilka, Viktor Astafiev and Boris Zakhoder were the authors of Murzilka.
Already in the first decades of its existence, drawings by artists appeared on the pages of the magazine, who later became leading book graphic artists - Konstantin Rotov, Aminadav Kanevsky, Andrey Brey, Lev Bruni.
In the 1940s and 1950s, Yuri Vasnetsov, Anatoly Kokorin, Yuri Korovin, and Vladimir Konashevich began working for the publication. Vladimir Lebedev, who played a significant role in the development of the art of book graphics, drew in Murzilka.
From the end of 1988 to 1995, a literary seminar was held at the editorial office under the guidance of a children's writer, screenwriter Yuri Koval, which made it possible to educate a new generation of permanent authors of "Murzilka".

Murzilka got his name thanks to the mischievous and prankster - a little forest man who existed in popular books for children of the late 19th century. It was a little man in a tailcoat, with a cane and a monocle. Then the image of the forest Murzilka changed to the image of an ordinary small dog helping everyone who is in trouble.
