Topic: Alyosha Popovich


  
  Bogatyri
Alyosha is the youngest of the heroes; he is still beardless and the most dandified.
Alyosha is not only a warrior; he is also a diplomat, orator, singer, and musician.
Alyosha is armed with a bow; perhaps it is his main weapon, but his quiver is rich, filled with, one should think, poisonous arrows.

  Alyosha Popovich: ZoomInfo Business People Information   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Alyosha Popovich in the ballads is the son of Fyodor (or Leo) the old Pope of Rostov; and, like Ilya Muromets, is strongly localized, but is never know by his patronymic, Popovich, signifying that he is the son of a priest.
His father said to him: "Alyosha Popovich, you are faring into the open field, but we have yet one who is even mightier than you; do you take into your service Maryoshko, the son of Paran." So the two youths mounted their horses and they fared into the open field.
And Alyosha Popovich went straight to the white stone palace to Prince Vladimir, crossed himself as is befitting, bowed down in learned-wise in all four directions, and especially low to Prince Vladimir.

Then the ever-suspicious Alyosha Popovich tired of his story and interrupted: "How did you say you came here?" He pointed out to the court that the invincible Solovei Razboniek had cut off the shortest road to the north for 30 years.
Alyosha Popovich suggested to Vladimir that they accept the family's wish and take all this wealth in ransom for the father's body.
Ilya ignored Alyosha's proposal, and on his own authority ordered the family to turn straight round with all the stolen goods: "Akulina Dudenchevna, take the body of your husband, bury it decently, and bring up your children properly." The family slunk off.

The unexpected initiative came in a proposal from Maxim Sveshnikov, a student from Dnepropetrovsk, Ukraine.
He suggested collaborating on the adaptation of Russian fables and included a sample draft of a story about Alyosha Popovich, a dim-witted but charismatic young warrior.
‘Alyosha Popovich’ in particular prepared the ground for it, and ‘Prince Vladimir’ was misleadingly marketed as part of that trilogy.

 BYLINY OF ILYA OF MUROM (ILYA MUROMETS)
The first was Ilya of Murom, our Old Kazák of the Don; the second Dobrynya Nikitich, the third Alyosha Popovich, the fourth Churilo Plenkovich, the fifth Mikailo the Rover, the sixth and seventh the Agrikanof brothers.
Nor may Alyosha go against the unbidden visitor, for Alyosha is of popish descent, and popes' eyes are covetous, popes' hands pilferous; Alyosha will see the braggart's great store of gold and silver, and will covet them.
In the east he espied white pavilions, for Alyosha Popovich was come to the oak Nevida, to the cross Levanidof, to the white stone Alatyr.

 Russian bylines-Ilya Muromets and Svyatogor
How he lived on the Holy Mountains (the Carpathians) because the earth could no longer withstand his weight, and how one day he got up and met the peasant Mikula Selyaninovich with his bag full of gravity.
He concluded: "It is said that in the end, Sviatogor disappeared completely into the ground and died." However, the well informed boyar Mermasta Vasilevich denied this and said: "No, he returned to the mountains and is still there." This version of the story gave Alyosha Popovich the idea of challenging Ilya Muromets.
Ilya was aware of the ambiguous nature of Alyosha's proposal, but he wanted nothing more than to learn about the world, and test his strength.
