–Look at a proverb and try to identify the main word in it.

Topic: Old Russian warriors-defenders.

- It is about the heroes that we will talk today.

^ 2. Work on the topic:

-Who are such heroes?

The meaning of the word "hero" is best given by a dictionary.

Bogatyrs (from Turkic bagatur - brave warrior) are the defenders of the Russian land, performing military deeds, distinguished by their special strength.

The word "hero" is found in chronicles from the 13th century.

“The hero is a tall, stout man, sturdy and prominent; extraordinary strong man; brave and lucky, brave and happy warrior, knight. "

- Having found out who the heroes are, we will try to answer the question, what are they?

What heroes do you know?

- There are many heroes in Russia. It is impossible to tell about everyone at once.

The defense of the Motherland is the defense of one's own dignity. (N. Roerich).

- The heroes of our today's lesson are very unusual characters. Let's see, guys, how the artists portrayed the ancient Russian warriors, heroes.

(On the slide is the painting by V. Vasnetsov "Three heroes").

- Ilya Muromets is the brightest representative of all Russian heroes. Ilya is distinguished by tremendous strength that other junior heroes do not possess. Physical strength is accompanied by moral: calmness, fortitude, simplicity, paternal solicitude, restraint, complacency, modesty, independence of character. Ilya Muromets' first feat was the liberation of the people from the power of the enemy, from the Nightingale the Robber.

^ Dobrynya Nikitich.

Alesha Popovich.

Svyatogor - a hero of great strength, growing taller than a standing forest, his head rested against a walking cloud. Mother Earth could not wear it. Even Ilya Muromets turns out to be so helpless in front of him that Svyatogor does not notice him.

Svyatogor is a huge giant; it is barely carried by the mother of cheese earth. He does not travel to Holy Russia, but lives on the high Holy Mountains; on his journey, the mother of cheese shakes the earth, the forests sway and the rivers pour out of the banks.

5. Lesson summary

What have you learned? What new have you learned?

1. Ideal views of the people.
2. Hyperbolic description.
3. Heroic weaknesses.

By admitting his weakness, a person becomes strong.
O. de Balzac

In the epics, a special world of exploits, fabulous transformations and opponents who are constantly trying to conquer Russia are revealed in front of us. But in such a striving they are certainly opposed by the main character of many epics, the hero, the only one who can defeat the enemy in any battle. Therefore, he is glorified and praised in every possible way on the pages of works. With the help of such images, the authors show not only the courage of the Russian people, but also the greatness of the entire state. They become like a visiting card, which reflects the "ideal of social justice." The heroes show the ideal ideas of the people about courageous and loyal service to the people and the homeland. Perhaps that is why, as a rule, they resist the enemy force alone. However, each of them has its own characteristics, which show one side of their image. Among them are such as the strongest Russian hero Ilya Muromets, the kind and brave Dobrynya Nikitich, the cunning and savvy Alyosha Popovich. But, despite such a variety, all these qualities are a generalized characteristic created by the Russian people, who in their works wanted to show the opposition to any force seeking to conquer it.

When creating the image of a hero in the work, both idealization and exaggeration are used. A similar description applies not only to the main characters, but also to those who help them, for example, a faithful horse. Such is Burushka the cosmopolitan of Ilya Muromets in the epic "Ilya-Muromets and the Nightingale the Robber": he "jumps from mountain to mountain, jumps over rivers-lakes, flies over hills."

But heroes do not only fight against dark enemy forces. They do a lot of useful things for the good of the people themselves. In their aspiration, they can not only improve the lives of those in need, but to some extent be stronger than the animals themselves. Ilya Muromets “supports Burushka with his left hand, and tears oak trees with roots with his right hand, and spreads oak floorings through the swamps. Ilya gati laid thirty versts - good people still travel along it ”.

No less hyperbolic features are used when describing the opponents with whom the heroes have to meet on their way. Thus, not so much the frightening appearance of the enemy is created, but once again the strength of the Russian hero is shown, who was able to resist him. For example, the image of the Nightingale the Robber: “Sitting across the river is the Nightingale the Robber on three oak trees, on nine boughs. Neither a falcon will fly past those oak trees, nor an animal will run, nor a reptile will crawl. " But this not only does not stop the hero, but also makes him get down to business with a vengeance in order to neutralize the enemy.

Any self-interest is also alien to the image of the hero. He does not chase after money, especially after those that are collected due to human suffering. This also reflects the aspirations of the Russian people, who sees in the hero not only a fabulous savior, but also a protector. Therefore, Ilya Muromets does not take the money that the wife of the Nightingale the Robber offers him: "They were obtained by children's tears, they are watered with Russian blood, acquired by the poverty of the peasants."

In many epics, the protagonist is not only the hero, but also the sovereign - Prince Vladimir. In different texts, the attitude of the heroes to him is contradictory. For example, they can appear at the first call in order to protect Russia. On the other hand, Prince Vladimir can offend a hero who is fraught with resentment, but then, in a moment of danger, he must forgive Vladimir's reproaches and actions. Or he immediately rather sharply responds to any unflattering statements addressed to him. In the epic “Ilya-Muromets and Nightingale the Robber”, a third version of the relationship is presented. Alyosha Popovich insults Ilya Muromets, saying that he could not pass through the Nightingale the Robber. But Vladimir acts wisely in such a situation. He asks to show the one whom the hero could overcome. At this moment, the Nightingale the Robber went for a trick and whistled very loudly, which caused great damage to nearby buildings. Then Ilya brings his work to the end: he cuts off the head of the robber so that he can no longer harm anyone. At the end of this epic, the authors turn to one more facet of the hero's image. Prince Vladimir noted for himself the behavior of Ilya, who did not succumb to reproaches from Alyosha Popovich. Therefore, he chooses him to be the eldest in the squad. But Alyosha Popovich even at this moment is trying to "annoy" Ilya Muromets, saying that "unwashed forest de-rural areas" cannot become the head. But not the social status, but the deeds of the heroes determine their status and position in this society: "Yes, and not according to the clan-tribe, glory goes, but according to heroic deeds and exploits." This phrase expresses the understanding of the Russian people of the one who should stand guard and at the head of the squad - a man whose courage and courage is manifested in deeds, and not in words.

However, heroes in a work do not always express only an ideal idea of ​​life. They are characterized by certain weaknesses, which are also reflected in the works. For example, in the epic "Ilya-Muromets and Nightingale the Robber" this is represented in the behavior of Alyosha Popovich, who from the first meeting is hostile to the hero. First, he accuses him of lying, and then that he does not have the appropriate social status in order to lead the squad. But this behavior can be explained by the hero's youth and, to some extent, by his inexperience. However, individual features are visible in other images of the heroes of such works. In particular, in the epic "At the Heroic Outpost".

The first mistake of the heroes in this story is that they were sent to guard at the valiant outpost, but at the "bad hour" they dispersed. Such a negligent attitude to one's duties could lead to trouble, since at that time a stranger drove towards Kiev, whose horse can leave a trail the size of half a furnace.

Alyosha Popovich also appears in the epic, who receives an unflattering characterization from Ilya Muromets: “Alyosha is a priest’s family, envying priest’s eyes, grabbing hands. Alyosha will see a lot of silver and gold on a stranger, envy and die in vain. " Such a description does not say that Alyosha is a bad hero, but this episode presents not only his weaknesses, but the wisdom and prudence of Ilya Muromets. In this description, Alyosha Popovich becomes a kind of contrasting image in relation to another hero. And no one says that they are both weak, they are just endowed with various human vices and dignities.

But in the image of Dobrynya, who in this epic goes to punish a stranger, his weaknesses are manifested. When the enemy began to approach him, the heroic horse fell to his knees. Dobrynya lost his main assistant, so he realized that he could not give battle to the enemy: “Dobrynya got scared, turned his horse, galloped back to the outpost. Comes neither alive nor dead ... ". Then Ilya Muromets decides to punish the stranger himself. At the beginning of the work, it was said only about the horse's footprint, which remained not far from the outpost, and only before the battle of the heroes was the portrait of the enemy himself presented. His main distinguishing feature is not in describing his appearance, but boasting about his strength: "He throws an iron club weighing ninety poods into the sky, catches the club with one hand on the fly, twirls it like a feather." What he saw does not frighten Ilya Muromets, he only asks his horse to help him defend the heroic outpost. He enters on a just cause and punishes the stranger not only for the willful crossing of the outpost, but also for the boast of his strength, which he paraded.

In the image of the heroes, the moral ideas of the people about the defender were expressed. They can fight any enemy. The more terrible and powerful the enemy is described in the epic, the stronger the hero himself seems, since he was able to defeat him.

The exaggerated images appearing in the work reflect rather not reality, but the aspirations of the people about those who can stand up for them and a just cause, which they consider the most important in their lives. But at the same time, in the image of each hero, individual lines are presented that speak of their character. Such a description does not detract from the strength and dignity of the heroes, but brings the image closer to a real person. Perhaps this is one of the techniques that allow one to believe that the heroes once lived in Russia and could protect its borders from any enemy who wanted not only to conquer it, but also to show their great strength.

Another hero is often found in folk epics - this is Alyosha Popovich. He is young, brave, sharp-witted, although not as strong as Muromets and Dobrynya.

Vasnetsov painted the painting "Heroes" for almost twenty years. For a long time he chose suitable models, studied epics, antiquities.

In the Russian language, there are many words that have their own meaning, evoke various associations and feelings, and have their own history. Let's try to draw a "portrait" of one of them. Let's turn to the word "hero". It takes us to the historical past, to folklore, to the embodiment of this concept in painting and music. Working on the project, we conducted a survey of 59 students in grades 5-7, they were asked the following questions:

1) what is an epic?

2) what artists and composers who created the images of heroes in their works do you know?

3) what pictures and musical works about Russian heroes do you know?

4) how does an epic differ from a fairy tale?

The following results were obtained: the exact answer to the first question was given by 5 students (8.47%), approximate - 22 students (37.28%), do not know the answer - 32 students (54.23%); on the second question, 1–2 artists or composers could name 19 students (32.2%), 2-3– 3 students (5.08%), 37 students did not know the answer (62.71%); on the third question, 1 work was named - 21 students (35.59%), 2 works - 3 students (5.08%), 3 works - 1 student (1.69%), 34 students do not know the answer (57.62% ); 5 pupils (8.47%) gave an exact answer to the fourth question, 23 pupils (38.98%) gave an approximate answer, 31 pupils (52.54%) did not know the answer to the question. The results of the survey showed a lack of awareness among the respondents. This prompted us

turn to the word "hero".

Let us first find out what it means. This is the meaning you can find in the "Explanatory Dictionary of the Living Great Russian Language" by V.I.Dal.

Bogatyr - M. Tatarsk. the man is tall, stout, sturdy and prominent; extraordinary strong man; brave and lucky, brave and happy warrior, knight. Fabulousheroes , giants, beating dozens of enemies and various monsters in one fell swoop. //Heroes were called (in tver. and others) popular prints, various images for the people, Sib. punks. Yuzhn, zap. rich man, rich man.The bogatyr marvels at what a bad guy lives . Bogatyrka , a woman hero.Bogatyryonok - m. Boy-hero;bogatyrishko (bogatyrishka? ) will belittle. and humiliate.,bogatyr (heroes? ) increase. and swearing.Morel looks, and bogatyr eats porridge (cabbage soup). The grief-bogatyr is drunk with wine on altyn. Bogatyr Anika , fabulous hero; not from Anika, under Peter 1?Bogatyrev belonging to the hero;heroic belonging to the bogatyrs.Bogatyrstvo - cf. condition, property of a hero.Happiness is better heroism ... Bogatyrshina - w. heroic life, times; // fairy tales and legends about heroes.He says heroism . Be rich , to flirt, look for heroic adventures and perform valiant military exploits (7, p. 102).

In the "Big Explanatory Dictionary of the Modern Russian Language" by D. N. Ushakov we read:

Bogatyr (in epics a hero), a hero, a husband. (from pers.bahadur). Hero of Russian epics, primarily. performing military exploits. The most famous b. - Ilya Muromets. // Strongman, brave. "You will be a hero in appearance and a Cossack in soul ". Lermontov (22, p. 160).

"Explanatory Dictionary of the Russian Language" S. I. Ozhegov, N. Yu. Shvedov gives the following explanation:

Bogatyr , -i, m.

1. The hero of Russian epics, performing military exploits.

2.transferred. A man of very great strength, stamina, courage. // adj.heroic ,

Aya, th. Heroic epics . Heroic addition (strong constitution). B. sleep (very strong) (12, p. 46).

“New Dictionary of the Russian Language” by T.F. Efremova adds new meanings to the existing meanings:

Bogatyr - m.

1.a) Hero of Russian epics and fairy tales.

b) Defender of the homeland, a warrior distinguished by unusual strength, courage, and prowess.

2. A tall, strong build, strong man.

3.transferred. Extraordinary, outstanding in some l. human area (8, p. 67).

In the "Dictionary of Russian Synonyms" we find such an interpretation of the wordhero - athlete, batyr, knight, hercules, dobrynya, sled, pahlavan, raspberry, rededya, samson, sayatogor, svyatogor, strongman, miracle hero (18, p. 59).

And what is the etymology of the wordhero , that is, how did it appear in Russian? It has long been suggested that it was borrowed from the Turkic languages, where it is present in various forms: "baghadur", "bagadur", "batur", "batyr", "bator".

However, there are also opponents of this opinion: they proceed from the position that “bagadur” is not a Tatar word, but is derived from the Sanskrit “baghadhara"(That is," happy, lucky), and that therefore the Russian wordhero also goes back to the pre-Aryan beginning. Others directly deducehero from the word "god" through the word "rich". But the word "rich" cannot come fromhero , since there is no suffix "-yr" in Russian. Against the primacy of the wordhero says the fact that it is not in other Slavic languages.

Russian philologist A.G. Preobrazhensky in his "Etymological Dictionary of the Russian Language" claims that the wordhero borrowed from Persian "bahadur"(13, p. 72).

German linguist, foreign member of the USSR Academy of Sciences Max Fasmer in his "Etymological Dictionary of the Russian Language" casts doubt on the opinion of Preobrazhensky, saying that "the explanation of eastern words from Iranian"bayapuura"Doubtful" and that this word is "borrowed from the ancient Türkic"bayatur"(Hence the Hungarian"bator"-" bold ")" (23, p. 183).

The Soviet etymologist P.Ya. Chernykh argued that the wordhero not only Turkic. In the Buryat and Mongolian languages ​​there is the word "baatar" - "knight, hero" (cf. Sukhe-Bator, "Ulan Bator"). It is known in the languages ​​of the Iranian group. “There is no sufficient reason to consider this word as Türkic in origin” (24, p. 99).

Other explanations are historical. Some believe that initially there was a form of "batyr" and that it was originally used in the meaning of "Tatar voivode" and the title, which was put in the proper names in the meaning of "lord".

In the “Encyclopedic Dictionary of Brockhaus and Efron,” the private-docent of St. Petersburg University I. S. Los concludes that in the pre-totalitarian period in Russia there was no concept corresponding to the presenthero ... It only corresponded to other words in the language, for example: "rezvets", "daring", "uhar", "horobr" (later replaced under the influence of the book by the Church Slavonic word "brave"). Then his word was replaced by a foreign one.

However, the famous Slavic philologist, professor at Kharkov University I.I. Sreznevsky reports that the Old Russian wordhero found in the Nikon Chronicle under 6509 (1001) and in the Ipatiev Chronicle under 6748 (1240) (19, p. 127).

The "Etymological Dictionary of the Modern Russian Language" says that "in the Russian language of the 11-12 centuries. the words "bagatur", "bogatyr" are known. The first form is most likely from the ancient Turkic “bagatur», « bagatyr"-" hero, knight ", in turn borrowed from about 4c. From the Indo-Aryan dialect of Krorainy (Loulian), or the Saka dialect of Khotan and Yarkand. According to another interpretation, the ancient Turkic “bagatur"Goes back to the Takhar"baga- atar», « baga- etre". There is also an opinion about the original Slavic origin of the word ”(26, p. 69).

Thus, the question of the origin of the wordhero remains open.

Let's take a closer look at the images of heroes from epics. What kind of equipment did the Russian knight have when he sets out on a journey?

it onion ... A simple bow was a symmetrically sharpened stick made of hard and flexible wood - elm, alder. The bow case was calledbowling , and the bag for storing arrows -quiver ... A good bow, when lowering a taut bowstring, is capable of tearing the air and making a harsh sound. Hence the constant epithet “explosive " onion. A type of spear with a wider, heavier, double-edged iron tip wasspear ... The heavy, double-edged spearhead was calledrampage ... In the Russian language there is a phraseological unit "to get on the rampage", which means "deliberately run into trouble." Often mentioned in epicsclub - a heavy club with a thickened end andmace - a damask (steel) club, which served to defeat a warrior's head protected by a helmet, it consisted of a metal head in the form of a ball, reinforced on a short shaft. Every hero should havesword - a double-edged blade. In the beginning, it was both a chopping and stabbing weapon. Horsemen's swords were made with a curved end. One of the items of military weapons -shield ... This means of defense has been known since ancient times. Strengthening the shield in the enemy's camp was a symbol of victory over the enemy. In ancient times (10-13 centuries) the shield looked like an ellipse and was made of wood to make it easier to hold in your hands. The tree was covered with leather, over which metal strips (usually iron) passed crosswise. The edges of the shields were also bound. A convex metal plaque was fixed in the center of the shield, which was calledumbo ... Shields were also made of bone.

She defended the hero himselfchain mail - a shirt woven from iron rings to protect against metal weapons. There were a lot of rings in chain mail - 15-20 thousand, and it weighed 12-16 kg. On my head washelmet - one of the common types of military metal headgear of antiquity. The main feature of the Russian helmet is its conical end, calledpommel ... Helmet head (shishak ) did not allow the enemy to strike a direct blow. It was possible to hit only from the side; the force of the blow decreased, and only in rare cases did the case end in the death of a person. Usually the warrior received only a shell shock. Hence the phraseological unit "stun", that is, "to strike an unexpected blow". The warrior's clothing was andtegilyay - quilted wadded caftan with short sleeves and a high standing collar.

The hero's faithful assistant is a horse. A bogatyr, as a rule, addresses a horse affectionately, emphasizing its strength: "You are my faithful and heroic horse." A heroic horse must match its master both in strength and in military valor.

Saddling a horse with a hero is a whole rite:

And then the old Cossack and Ilya Muromets

The horse has become good, and he slows down:

Put a sweater on a horse,

And put felt on the sweater,

He put the sweatpip on, but it was silky,

And on the sweat-cover he put an over-top,

I put a Cherkassian saddle on the headband,

And on the Cherkasy saddle - everything is new,

And pulled up twelve silk girths,

I put damask stirrups,

Buckles he put on red gold,

Yes, not for beauty, pleasing -

For the sake of a heroic fortress.

Silk girths also stretch - do not break,

And damask iron bends - does not break,

Buckles and red gold -

They get wet, but they don't rust! (5, c.282)

The Russian hero never chose easy roads. The hero is a powerful man endowed with an extraordinary mind and strength. They say about such a person: "He has a slanting fathom in his shoulders." In ancient times, people used their own body as a measure of length. The elbow is the length of the elbow bone, the span is the distance between the ends of the apart index and thumb, and the fathom is the distance between the tips of the fingers of widely spaced hands. An oblique fathom is a measure of length equal to the distance from the end of the big toe of the right foot to the end of the middle toe of the left hand raised up.

The "heroic theme" has been heard in Russian art for a long time. This is due to the fact that since ancient times, enemies have attacked Russia from all over, trying to take possession of our lands, to enslave the people. The image of the hero was born in Russian art as the image of the mighty defender of the Motherland, which Mother Earth so needed. There is a relationship between different types of arts, so each art created its own image, reflected the same historical events.

Ivan Yakovlevich Bilibin (1876-1942), an outstanding illustrator and theatrical artist, focusing on the original national traditions, with the help of expressive construction of the composition showed the true beauty of folk art, which has not lost its relevance today.

In 1902 the artist traveled to the northern lands. During the expedition, Bilibin collected antiques, national clothes, household items, samples of woodcarving, lace and printed cloth. Impressed by his travels, the artist began to work on illustrations for epics. In miniature painting, he managed to convey the epic and powerful images of Russian heroes - Ilya Muromets and Svyatogor. If before the trip to the North, the painter's work developed in the Art Nouveau style, then after it he invariably began to advocate documentary-accurate reproduction of every, even the most insignificant detail.

All the work of a talented Russian painterKonstantin Alekseevich Vasilyeva (1942-1976) imbued with philosophical reflections on the historical memory of the Slavic people. The touching poetic world of the artist's images is an integral part of the nation's cultural heritage. By 1974, the artist decided to create a cycle of works on the theme of "Epic Russia". Vasiliev was carried away by epic plots that told about the events that took place in Ancient Russia. In the painting "Russian Knight", a hero in silver chain mail and a red cloak stands belligerently with a naked sword in his hand against the background of a pale blue sky. The clouds flying over his head are depicted in the form of traditional totem animals of the Slavs: a ram, an eagle, a wolf and a pike. The red spots of the cloak and shield give the picture brightness and festivity, instill confidence in the defenders of the Russian land.

On the composition "On Kalinovy ​​Most" the artist used the contrast of silvery-gray and gray shades with burgundy and red colors. According to the epics, the Kalinov bridge is thrown across the Smorodina river, and the Serpent Gorynych guards this path, connecting the world of the living and the dead. Vasiliev portrayed Ilya Muromets in silver chain mail, raising his sword over the grinning

the mouth of the Serpent. A broken spear sticks out of the scaly tail of the evil, and a thin stream of blood flows from the wound onto the stones, forming a brown puddle. Between the bogatyr frozen in a decisive impulse and the wriggling Serpent Gorynych - the setting sun in a red trembling haze, symbolizes the agony of the monster.

Almost the entire area of ​​the painting "Ilya Muromets Freeing Prisoners" is occupied by the steps of the dungeon, running up from the bottom to the open doors. The air of freedom burst into the damp basement, and the prisoners reached for the light: some timidly, others - resolutely, as if this very minute they needed to get up and complete some important business.

No matter how great or daring Ilya Muromets, there are heroes on earth stronger than him. Ilya found out that the bogatyr Svyatogor lived somewhere with exorbitant power, and decided to meet with him. The painting "Gift of Svyatogor" depicts the moment when Svyatogor transfers his sword and part of his power to Ilya Muromets. A true hero, according to the artist, must combine physical and spiritual strength.

Victor Mikhailovich Vasnetsov (1848-1926) loved Russia dearly and was proud of it. Everyone knows his painting "Heroes". Before us is Dobrynya Nikitich, Ilya Muromets and Alyosha Popovich. They vigilantly peer into the distance and listen keenly to see if there are any enemies anywhere. Looking at this picture, we understand what the artist wanted to say: evil must be fought! Bogatyrs sit firmly in the saddle. And we have no doubt: to displease those upon whom they will unleash their righteous anger. When Vasnetsov was completing his work on the picture, he said that he wanted to write so that the picture sounded like music, sang like an epic, and excited like his own song. And it turned out that way. The spirit of heroic epics permeates all Russian art. In them, the artists saw the origins of the national character, the protection and hope of the Russian land. The heroic, powerful, truly Russian character was embodied in the images of Dmitry Donskoy, Alexander Nevsky, Ivan Susanin, Pushkin's Ruslan and Prince Igor.

Nicholas Roerich (1874-1947) treated the heroes of Russian epics with special feeling and paid special attention to them in his work. One of the artist's brightest works on this theme is the "Heroic Frieze" suite (1910), performed by him for the interior of the city house of F. Bazhanov in St. Petersburg. These canvases were carefully preserved in besieged Leningrad; such works helped the people to withstand the difficult years of the war and are the spiritual heritage of our country. On the panel "Ilya Muromets" is the protagonist of the Russian epic, who embodied the best ideals of the people, his ideas about good and evil, about loyalty to his native land, about heroic prowess and honor, therefore he is also called a spiritual hero.

In 1928, after the trans-Himalayan expedition, Roerich settled in the Kullu valley at the foot of the Himalayas. Svyatogor also dates back to this time. The hero is endowed with Russian-Indian features: Russian clothes, oriental face. Svyatogor has a Russian beard - a symbol of wisdom, and his eyebrows are exactly the same as those of the artist himself. Maybe he portrayed himself living in the Holy Mountains. Clouds and mountain peaks intertwine creating a dreamlike atmosphere. The hero is part of the elemental principle depicted

on the canvas.

Mikhail Alexandrovich Vrubel (1856-1910) in the painting "Hero" depicted Ilya Muromets sitting on a horse-bitug. This stumpy, stocky warrior is close to the folklore image of a "redneck peasant" who loves "patterned clothing and armor." The decoration of his outfit in shape and color seems to be a continuation of the landscape with intertwining fir branches and curved trees against the backdrop of a red sunset. Even the hair of a horse looks like the needles of conifers. The animal and the hero seem to be fused together with each other and the surrounding nature. The forest is primordially dense, in its dense undergrowth there are two hawks, personifying the dark forces. But the hero looks vigilantly and sharply, listens sensitively - he is ready to fight any enemy.

The work of the best Russian composers is permeated with an ardent feeling of love for their native country, for their people and Russian nature. In 1875 the composerAlexander Porfirevich Borodin (1833-1887) finished his Second Symphony - one of the best works of Russian symphonic music. She was enthusiastically received by his eminent friends. The discussion after the listening was stormy: Modest Petrovich Mussorgsky suggested calling it "Slavic, heroic", but critic Vladimir Vasilyevich Stasov protested: not generally Slavic, but specifically Russian, heroic. "Heroic" - this is the name of the Second Symphony of A.P. Borodin bears to this day. Listening to music, you mentally imagine the image of Ancient Russia, its endless steppes, heroic outposts - the whole image of distant centuries. The work gives a feeling of strength, vigor, light, powerful breath, scope, breadth in it. The symphony begins with a strong-willed, decisive theme, the intonations of which are close to epic tunes. She immediately attracts the attention of the listener, giving birth to the idea of ​​the mighty, simple and stern appearance of the great Russian people. This is a truly heroic image. The low register of stringed instruments conveys a cry, a call, embodies an irresistible force. Listening to this topic, one involuntarily recalls the mighty Ilya Muromets or Svyatogor, who are so firmly embedded in the ground that you cannot move him. In order to move this massive block from its place, it is necessary to swing it. And the theme seems to be swinging, sliding down a tone and revealing even greater depth and weight.

The epic heroic theme is also present in the cycleModest Petrovich Mussorgsky (1839-1881) Pictures at an Exhibition - in the play Heroic Gates. Pictures at an Exhibition is a well-known suite consisting of 10 plays and created in memory of Mussorgsky's friend, artist and architect V.A. Gartman. Hartmann created a project of the Triumphal Gate for Kiev. It is made in the "Russian style". Three semicircular arches seem to have been snatched out of the old boyar chambers. Pillars with capitals in the folk spirit. Carved kokoshnik with icons and a double-headed eagle over the central aisle. Adjacent to the gate is a chapel with a belfry covered with a dome similar to a hero's helmet. Something gingerbread, leafy is present in this drawing. Mussorgsky has departed far from Hartmann's "picture". He created a play consonant with the mighty finale of Glinka's operas, glorifying the power and feat of the Russian people. The melody "Promenade" takes on a stately, solemn tone here. A harsh theme is woven into it, reminiscent of the difficult years of Russia. And again - the bell ringing, a jubilant melody. The people are feasting on the Victory Day in the glorious capital city of Kiev. The gate of Russian heroes is a monument to the victory of the greatness and glory of the Russian people!

This is how the main thing that determines the character of any nation finds its expression in musical creativity. This is a deep love of life, a rich imagination, a sensitive attitude to beauty, patriotism and remarkable strength - not robber, barbaric, but wise and right. Epics and legends from century to century pass on to descendants the rich experience of the people. Good and evil, strength and power, reality and fiction in their endless string of artistic incarnations form a powerful poetic stream of eternal images, which are called by the great word "tradition".

The first epics - oral folk legends about the heroic deeds of the heroes - arose during the times of Kievan Rus. It was alarming on Russian soil. Pechenegs, Polovtsians attacked Russia, burned villages, trampled fields, and people were killed or taken into slavery. The Russian princes also fought among themselves, robbers roamed the roads. The epic genre was formed on a historical basis, his works were a response to specific historical events. Epics should not be confused with fairy tales. Their main difference lies in the attitude of the narrator (singer, storyteller) to his work. A fairy tale is originally a wonderful fiction. Epic is a story about antiquity, when things could happen that are completely incredible in the present. It is noteworthy that in the epics the details of everyday life, a description of the area where the action unfolds are conveyed with amazing accuracy. It is interesting that the names of some epic heroes are recorded in the annals, where they are told about as real-life personalities. The popular ideal of a strong, mighty defender of the Russian land was embodied in the image of the heroes. Bogatyrs love the Russian land, they stand guard over its borders, in a moment of danger they come to the aid of the people, save them from enslavement and humiliation. The heroes are not afraid of the untold forces of the enemy, even death itself. There is not a single heroic epic where the hero-warrior does not defeat the enemy. The stronger, the more terrible the enemy, the more magnificent the victory of the hero.

But, despite the similarity of the images of the heroes, they differ and have individual traits. Consider the images of Svyatogor and Ilya Muromets in epics.

The great hero Svyatogor, from whose tread the earth groaned, is mentioned in the epic epic earlier than other heroes. The name "Svyatogor" speaks of the connection with the mountains. Stone ledges of mountains, exposed earth rocks, destroyed and cut by water and wind, often formed bizarre shapes and figures that resembled giant giants. The imagination of the people endowed soulless stones with life. Perhaps this is how Svyatogor appeared. In the epic, the hero appears as a huge giant, "higher than a standing forest." His mother-damp earth carries it with difficulty. He does not travel to Holy Russia, but lives on the high Holy Mountains; on his mother-cheese ride, the earth shakes, forests sway and rivers spill over the banks. Something majestic, severe and even tragic emanates from his appearance. He looks like a lonely wanderer - without a home, without relatives, without companions, and even without a native land.

Much mysterious in the image of Svyatogor. He lives in the mountains, but gets stuck in the ground, as if in a swampy swamp, and cannot lift the bag, where all the "earthly cravings" are hidden. He, mighty and invincible, immediately loses his strength in a stone coffin he accidentally found. Why doesn't he guard the border of Holy Russia, like Ilya Muromets and other heroes?

Svyatogor is the son of Rod, the brother of Svarog, and the Svarozhichs were his nephews. His father is called "dark", that is, blind. Svyatogor was born in order to guard the world of Revelation and not let the dark monsters from Navi. He is the owner of colossal strength, but he has nowhere to apply it.

He goes to the field, makes fun,

He throws the damask club,

Above the woods he throws a standing one,

Below a cloud he throws a walker,

The club flies away high in the skies,

When that club descends down,

He picks it up with one hand! (5, p. 31-32).

The hero tried to compete with the great earthly power! Bylina seems to warn: in such a struggle - unrighteous, destructive - the hero will lose, because the land needs to be plowed, equipped and protected, and not compete with it in power and strength.

Svyatogor is a martyr of his own strength. He is the embodiment of an inapplicable, useless, blind power, the image of an ancient giant. Svyatogor puts Ilya Muromets in his pocket together with a horse - a typical act of a supernatural being doomed to death. The image of this death was the coffin, which Svyatogor and Ilya take turns trying on, and it falls at the time of Svyatogor. Before his death, Svyatogor transfers to Ilya only a part of the strength - the one that is needed for a person, and not for a supernatural being, and will be fatal for a person. The death of Svyatogor in a stone coffin is again connected with the earth: the hero cannot overpower the earth, and the earth cannot bear him.

The bogatyr Ilya Muromets appears to be a brave and brave guardian, aware of his duty to his homeland. More often than other knights, he stands at the heroic outpost, more than anyone else he takes battle with enemies, while he always wins. In addition to powerful strength, Ilya possesses iron endurance and firm confidence. He is an ardent defender of orphans and widows.

The epics tell about the healing of Ilya Muromets and the two-stage receipt of his strength. From birth he was "no arms, no legs", so for 30 years he was sitting on the stove. The disease was miraculously healed.

Once, when his peasant parents were in the field, pedestrians appeared in front of the windows of the kaliki and asked to drink and feed them. Ilya refused twice, citing illness. And for the third time he got up on his "frisky legs". Health and strength came to Muromets through the drink that the pilgrims brought him. He drank the spell and felt that "his heroic heart flared up", added "great strength."

After the Kalik left, Ilya performs the first feat - labor: he goes to his father's field, drives the cattle from it, fences. The bogatyr received the second strength and sword-kladenets from Svyatogor, when he was heading to Kiev, to the court of Prince Vladimir. After that, Ilya Muromets performed the greatest number of feats: he freed Chernigov from the robbers, captured the Nightingale the Robber, dealt with the Idol, beat the invader Kalin the Tsar and the Tatar force. This gives him the right to be the strongest and most courageous warrior.

In the epics, it is emphasized that Muromets is not a noble family. He is either a peasant son or an old Cossack. But the hero is always noble and disinterested. Chernigov peasants invite Ilya to become their governor, Nightingale the Robber offers him great riches. But no one can bribe Ilya Muromets with anything. Of all the heroes, he is the closest to the people. January 1 - Day of the epic hero Ilya Muromets, on this day in Russia the memory of the hero was honored. He is the only hero of the epic, whose tomb still exists in the famous cave of the Kiev-Pechersk Monastery, next to the tombs of the legendary chronicler Nestor, the first Russian icon painter Alimpiy and other historical figures of Kievan Rus.

Let's compare the images of Svyatogor and Ilya Muromets in the epic "Svyatogor and Ilya Muromets" and arrange them in the form of a table.

Thus, there is a lot of mythology in Svyatogor. K. Aksakov noted: “The image of this huge hero, who was burdened, was overcome by his own strength, so that he became immovable - very significant. Svyatogor is a bogatyr-element ”. (6, p. 4) Muromets is a real person, but his strength is exaggerated. Svyatogor died - Ilya stayed. Man replaced the element. Svyatogor is difficult for the earth and does not need it, since it cannot protect a person in need of help.

The epic "Svyatogor and Ilya Muromets" reflects the transition of the people's consciousness to the idea that the most important place in the life of people belongs not to the elements, but to man. That it is not God, not Svyatogor, not nature, but it is man who is capable and must defend himself, to stand up to fight against evil.

The talented Russian people have created heroic epics. They reflected the dignity and mind of the people, its moral image and soul, its historical memory. And if we know folklore, the memory of the people will be alive, the heroic Rus will forever be famous. And the simple word "hero" told us about all this.

Student work.

One of the most famous paintings by V. M. Vasnetsov is "Heroes". He devoted two decades to her. She became the artist's favorite painting. The painting depicts three heroes - Ilya Muromets, who embodies strength and courage, the brave and honest Dobrynya Nikitich, and the quick-witted Alyosha Popovich.

Ilya Muromets is sitting on a black horse in the center. Strength, wisdom and endurance are felt in all his appearance. From the right hand of Ilya Muromets hangs a damask club, and in his left hand - a shield and a huge spear. He is dressed in an iron chain mail, a helmet on his head. The bogatyr vigilantly peers into the distance from under the hand raised to his forehead: if there are any enemies - nomads.

To the left of Ilya Muromets - Dobrynya Nikitich. He is dressed richly and smartly. Over the chain mail - precious princely armor. The hero's right hand is already drawing the sword from its scabbard, and his horse is about to carry it into battle.

To the right of Ilya Muromets is Alyosha Popovich, the youngest hero. He's not as strong as the other two heroes. But the hero's hand confidently removes the bow, and the arrow is always at the ready.

Behind the backs of the heroes is the Russian land. The steppe, overgrown with yellowing grass, dense forests, low sky - this is a stately image of Russia.

The heroes are determined not to let the enemy pass. Looking at the picture, we feel the solidarity of the heroes, united by a common aspiration.

The painting "Heroes" is a monument to the military glory of the Russian people. You look at her and believe that there is no such force that could overcome the Russian prowess, the heroic strength.
