I have finished reading the book by Bengt Jangfeldt “The rate is life. Vladimir Mayakovsky and his circle”, which made me take a fresh look at his personality. The Swedish literary critic worked extensively in foreign archives and was able to document little-known facts from the life of Vladimir Vladimirovich Mayakovsky.
I want to say right away that I have no task to belittle his poetic gift, but as a psychologist it was interesting for me to understand the features of his personality, which were reflected in his work and led to a tragic denouement.
So, I think that one of the main characteristics of his personality was infantilism, i.e. psychological immaturity, which manifested itself in such features of his behavior as impulsiveness, egocentrism, irresponsibility and poor self-regulation.
One of the reasons for Mayakovsky’s infantilism was the early death of his father at a time when the boy was only 13 years old. The usual way of the family was broken, the mother had to move from Georgia to Moscow. The family was poor. Vladimir was expelled from the 5th grade of the gymnasium due to non-payment of tuition. It happened at 1908 year. He was soon imprisoned on the case of an underground printing house, where he spent a total of 11 months. In prison, Mayakovsky did not obey the routine, he scandalized.
It should be noted as the second feature of Mayakovsky’s rebellious character and increased aggressiveness. Here I would venture to suggest that he had an extra Y chromosome. Men with the XYY set of sex chromosomes are characterized by very high growth and a tendency to aggressive and even antisocial behavior.
V. P. Efroimson, a classic of Russian genetics, wrote that “the owners of this karyotype, regardless of their family and social environment, usually very early begin to stand out with aggressiveness, and some then with crime. About 5% of offenders taller than 183 cm (6 feet) in Anglo-American prison psychiatric hospitals have this karyotype.” For comparison, in a regular sample, men with such a gene set are found in 0.14%. Mayakovsky’s height was 190 see
Infantilism and increased aggressiveness explain many features of his behavior. One of them is in difficult relationships with women. Almost all the women who were his mistresses noted his emotional imbalance. He quickly fell in love, and immediately began to demand reciprocity from the chosen one. If he was refused, he began to get angry or, on the contrary, upset to tears. Oddly enough, but such a giant often cried for a variety of reasons.
Acquaintance with Lilya Brik played a fatal role in his fate. They met at 1915, when Mayakovsky was 22 years old, and she was 24 years old. He had nothing but talent and youth: no education, no money, no home. Lilya Brik was rich, well educated (she knew three foreign languages), included in a wide network of acquaintances with famous and influential people. She quickly realized that a vulnerable soul was hiding behind the seeming external independence and rudeness, and managed to subdue his will.
Lilya Brik strengthened his infantilism by taking upon herself the solution of all his problems during the period when he was just beginning his career. He and Osya Brik actually adopted Mayakovsky. They took care of publishing his poems, introduced him to the right people, arranged his life, took care of his health. An interesting detail. It turns out that Mayakovsky had very bad front teeth. Lilya took him to the dentists, who put his mouth in order.
She was both a lover and a mother for him, who consoled him in moments of failure, suggested how to behave in this or that life situation. Of course, this was not disinterested on her part, because as Mayakovsky’s fame and his income grew, he increasingly became a source of her material well-being. Lilya Brik was the second woman in Moscow to own her own car, which Mayakovsky gave her. All attempts by Mayakovsky to separate and create his own family with another woman were skillfully suppressed by her. The fact that he could not escape from this captivity also speaks of his infantilism.
A sign of his psychological immaturity is also his irresponsible behavior in situations where he found out about the pregnancy of his mistresses. He left the women themselves to decide this issue, without even helping financially. Only two children of Mayakovsky are known for certain: the daughter of Patricia Thompson, who was born in 1926 from the Russian emigrant Ellie Jones, and the son Nikita Antonovich Lavinsky, born in 1921 by the artist Lily Lavinskaya. Interestingly, Patricia Thompson, Ph.D. and writer, is still alive.
Bengt Jangfeldt writes: “Being childishly egocentric, he always acted as if there was no one around him. He was never embarrassed, he could take off his shoe in the middle of the street, into which a pebble fell, and loudly discussed the most intimate issues on the phone, not paying attention to the fact that outsiders could hear him. This manifested an important trait of Mayakovsky’s character: his inability to hypocrisy, cunning, falsehood, intrigue; he absolutely did not know how to pretend. But this same feature led to the fact that he was deprived of any diplomacy and constantly came into confrontation with the people around him.
Of course, Vladimir Mayakovsky himself suffered from his impulsive, unbalanced character. In the professional sphere, everything was not going smoothly for him either. During the revolutionary period, his rebellious spirit was very welcome, and his calls to crush and break the old way of life were received with enthusiasm. We can say that his image of the tribune was the embodiment of a revolutionary spirit.
But already in the early 1920s, with the advent of the NEP, the poetics of destruction became out of place. In addition, Mayakovsky himself succumbed to the charm of bourgeois life, for which he was sharply criticized for betraying the interests of the proletariat.
He was looking for himself in different types of creativity: in literature, painting, dramaturgy, directing. But he did not seek to develop himself professionally. His knowledge of literature was fragmentary. It is surprising that, having an outstanding memory (Chukovsky writes about this), he did not even bother to learn a single foreign language, although he regularly traveled to Europe. The inability to communicate freely without an interpreter in France infuriated him, but he did nothing to change this situation.
Dissatisfaction with relationships with women, a decline in success as a poet, a tendency to depression and suicide, which haunted him throughout his life, led to a tragic denouement at the age of 36.
His strong feelings and contradictions melted into poetic lines with a very strong impact. VTsIOM recently conducted a survey about Russian poets. It was proposed to answer the question: «Whom did you happen to read after graduating from school or university?» Respondents could choose several poets from the proposed list. As a result, the following poetic order was obtained: Pushkin — 35%, Yesenin — 30%, Lermontov — 23%, Akhmatova — 15%, Mayakovsky — 15%. his unusual masculine texture would be fully involved. It seems to me that the profession of ship captain, polar explorer, geologist would suit him. His father (also a large man) was a forester, and Vladimir also loved nature very much. By the way, he never sat at the table at the time of composing poems. Often he composed poems while walking in the forest.
But fate decreed otherwise, and he became a poet to the delight of many admirers of his work.

I’ll try to remember from the literature. First of all, of course, Oblomov — not only did he do nothing at the beginning of the book. So, having survived some experiences that in other books would have tempered and raised the hero, he returned to where he started.
In the novel “Flowers for Algernon”, the protagonist, although for some time becomes the smartest person on earth, everything starts differently: due to developmental features, he writes with errors, is able to perform only primitive work, thinks in child level.
To some extent, the hero of Erlend Lu’s novel “Naive. Super». A young man of 25-30 years old is confused and does not know what he wants in life. And therefore, he begins to engage in very, it would seem, unnecessary and childish things: he throws the ball at the wall or plays with toys.
I don’t know if it can be counted, but I can’t remember a more infantile character than Rose from The Little Prince. She behaved like a capricious child, only demanding without giving anything in return.
I think you can count some of the husbands from Pushkin’s fairy tales who are not able to make independent decisions and only do what their wife tells them: the fisherman from «Golden Fish», the priest from «The Tale of the Priest and His Worker Balda».
Assol from «Scarlet Sails»: she invented a fairy tale for herself, but even when she grew up, she lived only in fantasies. Although the author tried to present it as something romantic.
Peter Pan and all his company.
Lots of stereotyped women, like in Sophie Kinsella’s Shopaholic: the heroine gives out financial advice, although she doesn’t follow it herself and generally thinks little about anything other than today. And today she should feel good, and for this she needs to buy new things (read — toys).

IMHO the most interesting are the beloved infantile characters, and there are many of them:
1) Pinocchio (a completely irresponsible type, does not think about the consequences, does not learn anything and does not draw conclusions)
2) Peter Pan (infancy here is elevated to the absolute)
3) Cinderella (sits and waits for the fairy godmother, who will decide everything, without her she cries stupidly and is inactive)
4) Tom Sawyer (irresponsible… Read more Read more

I want to protect Assol. Infantile — would succumb to the surrounding life, become the same. Not to go against — isn’t it helplessness? Assol is gentle in appearance, but in her soul she is strong, purposeful, kind. Is a person without a fairy tale and a dream in his soul normal? From the point of view of others, yes. And that’s what they said about Assol in Kapern — she’s crazy. Do you think so too? So is Grey… Read more

Literature is probably some «superfluous people». For example, the hero of the story «The Diary of an Extra Man» I.S. Turgenev Chulkaturin, the hero of the novel by the same writer «Rudin» (respectively, Rudin). Infantile, but proud and withdrawn is the narrator and writer Ivan in the novel by F. M. Dostoevsky «Humiliated and Insulted». It depends on what you mean by the word «infantile»… Read more

My personal Top 3 list for literature:
Prince Genji (Genji Monogatari)
Konstantin Levin («Anna Karenina»)
Don Rumata Estorsky («It’s hard to be a god»)
For cinema it is more difficult, it is not always possible to find normal people there. The typical American disaster-movie father-of-family who breaks through the world «to be with his family» is my… Read more

It looks like Levin from Karenina is a hard-working plowman. Can such people be infantile?

In my opinion, Doctor Zhivago from the work of the same name was not just infantile, but absolutely mediocre. Any doctor, be he of a strong nature, continues to be a doctor under any authority, and does not turn into a trampled doormat.

The hero of the novel (and short story) «Flowers for Algernon» is not infantile, he is sick.
