Catherine Furtseva: Playing in a foreign field

Catherine Furtseva: Playing in a foreign field
 At her funeral Maya Plisetskaya says that others will, but that will never happen. A simple girl from a working class family managed to get to such heights unthinkable that even the men captured the spirit. Her mother could not read, and she was the daughter of Secretary of the CPSU, of course, with the filing of a close friend - Khrushchev.  

Figure Culture Minister Yekaterina Furtseva ambiguous. Until now, the debate continues over whether, whether it was an outstanding personality, a strong man, or just a lucky woman whose appearance and natural cunning helped her achieve great things.

How is it that Furtseva, marching confidently towards its goal for many years, suddenly stumbled and fell from the political Olympus down into the abyss of nothingness? Was it an accident? Or simply the feminine prevailed over the male mind, and Ekaterina A. did not stay in the saddle at the turning point?

Ekaterina A. throughout aspired to be first. In the Komsomol took her fifteen-year-girl, and at nineteen she had led the district committee of the Komsomol in the Kursk region. Furtseva interested in sports, swim perfectly, was personally acquainted with the future designer Sergei Korolev. Agree, pretty good start for the illiterate daughter of weavers.

To it clearly favored the powers: in different years in the development of career Furtsevoy actively participated A.V.Kosarev and Khrushchev, they clearly move it forward. Moreover, in 1949, Ekaterina A. was presented to Stalin himself, who praised the young and promising Communist.

And she struggled to match: memorizing texts of reports by heart, rehearsed before a mirror, as if ready to perform in the drama circle. Fortunately, the nature is not cheated young Furtseva memory and persistence. She has performed strongly, emotionally, most importantly, without using paper tips.

Perhaps the extraordinary appearance of Catherine Furtsevoy played a role in her career promotion. She was quite attractive blond hair honey-colored, pretty face, slim, trim figure. CC members behind him called it "Malvina" for what it is at all times to care for themselves and always tried to dress elegantly.

As for the style of clothing, Furtseva listened attentively girlfriends rotating aristocratic circles, and no less diligently listened to their advice. She began with strict dark suits, but at the time of entry into the post of first secretary of the Communist Party began to dress very elegant and refined.

What happened that contributed to its downfall? Open expression of emotion? A failed suicide attempt literally destroyed her reputation as a strong man with the makings of a leader. Attitude towards it then became another forever. This moment marked the beginning of its fall down not only through the ranks, but also life in general.

Yet Yekaterina Furtseva was an extraordinary man, it is no wonder that friends called her Catherine the Great. Someone admired her, someone laughed at her incompetence in the field of culture, someone openly hated it and was glad overthrow. The important thing is that she has managed to leave a bright trace in the history of his country, left all alone at the end of life. Her last husband, N.P.Firyubin, a week after her death, he married another woman.
