November 7 is not only the Day of Russian Military Glory and the anniversary of the October Revolution. On this day, several famous people were born who have had a significant impact on science, culture and politics.
Maria Sklodowska-Curie - the birth of a genius
Maria Sklodowska-Curie became one of the few women to whom physics, chemistry and mathematics surrendered. Together with her husband, Pierre Curie, Maria discovered the elements radium and polonium. Later, the phenomenon of radioactivity became the topic of her doctoral dissertation. Marie Curie became the first female teacher at the Sorbonne and for the first time received two Nobel Prizes - in physics and in chemistry. Scientific activity did not prevent Maria from becoming an exemplary wife and mother - she gave birth and raised two daughters.
Curie's experiments with radioactive materials were not in vain - the woman scientist died of leukemia at the age of 66.
Leon Trotsky - one of the main characters in 1917
It is noteworthy that on November 7, one of the main revolutionaries was born. Leon Trotsky became the ideologist of the Communist International, one of the organizers of the October Revolution and the Red Army, and also the author of his own doctrine - Trotskyism. Trotsky played a crucial role in the Bolshevik Party, but after the death of Lenin, his authority fell. As a result of a violent struggle for power, the politician lost all posts and was exiled from the country. He was later shot by an NKVD agent.
Rina Zelenaya - the star of Soviet films
Probably most of all, Rina Zelenaya was glorified by the role of the tortoise Tortilla from the tale of Pinocchio. Meanwhile, the actress has more than 50 notable and not very prominent roles in other films. Most of Green's roles are episodic, but they are all remembered by the audience. Elizaveta Timofeevna, head of fashion models in "Girl without an Address", Kurochkina from "Cheryomushki", Aunt Ganymede from "Three Fat Men" - these characters bring a bright note to all films. And fans of the adventures of Sherlock Holmes will remember Rina Zelena for her inimitable role as Mrs. Hudson.
Rina Zelenaya was a great master of imitating childish voices. She has voiced about 30 cartoons.
Albert Camus - famous existentialist writer
The winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature became famous for his mysterious, slightly absurd works, as well as his own philosophy. Camus was close to the views of Nietzsche, this was reflected in his works. Due to the development of tuberculosis at an early age, the writer died at the age of 46 and left a small literary legacy. However, his works have become classics, and some critics even see them as a separate direction - new classicism.
