“Hüseyn Cavid Poeziya Günü” At first, participants of the event visited Husein Javid’s mausoleum in the center of the city and visited the house-museum of the great poet in Nakhchivan.

Opening the ceremony held at Nakhchivan State Musical Drama Theater named after Jalil Mammadguluzadeh, Minister of Culture and Tourism of Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic Natavan Gadimova said that 135 years have passed since the birth of poet-playwright Husein Javid, one of the prominent representatives of Azerbaijani literature, distinguished for his originality both in poetry and dramaturgy. Husein Javid was sentenced to eight years in prison in June 1937 under the pretext of his participation in the “secret nationalistic counter-revolutionary organization”. Since then, it was forbidden to publish and stage all of his works.

With the support of great leader Heydar Aliyev, Javid’s works began to be published in the 70s of the last century and 2 volumes were published in Russian. National leader Heydar Aliyev took a step that required great courage, Javid’s funeral was brought from Far Siberia to Baku in 1982 and to Nakhchivan on November 2. This fact is the only courageous example of the state-level attitude towards the repressed person in the former Soviet Union.
