But an hour later, the police detained the criminal and took him to the house, where he was given an overnight stay. The priest said that this man did not steal anything, that he took all the things with the permission of the owner. The thief, amazed by what he heard, in one minute experienced a true rebirth, and after that he became an honest man.

Antoine de Saint-Exupery "The Little Prince"
There is an example of just power: "But he was very kind, and therefore gave only reasonable orders." If I tell my general to turn into a sea gull, - he used to say, - and if the general does not obey the order, it will not be his fault, but mine. " ...

Fonvizin "Minor"
They say that many noble children, recognizing themselves in the image of the idler Mitrofanushka, experienced a genuine rebirth: they began to study diligently, read a lot and grew up worthy sons of the fatherland.

L. N. Tolstoy. "War and Peace"

  • What is the greatness of man? It is where goodness, simplicity and justice are. This is exactly what L.N. Tolstoy image of Kutuzov in the novel "War and Peace". The writer calls him a truly great man. Tolstoy takes his beloved heroes away from the "Napoleonic" principles and puts them on the path of rapprochement with the people. "Greatness is not where there is no simplicity, goodness and truth," the writer argued. This famous phrase has a modern sound.
  • One of the central problems of the novel is the role of personality in history. This problem is revealed in the images of Kutuzov and Napoleon. The writer believes that there is no greatness where there is no kindness and simplicity. According to Tolstoy, a person whose interests coincide with the interests of the people can influence the course of history. Kutuzov understood the mood and desires of the masses, therefore he was great. Napoleon thinks only of his own greatness, therefore he is doomed to defeat.

I. Turgenev. "Notes of a Hunter"
People, having read bright, vivid stories about peasants, realized that it is immoral to own people like cattle. A broad movement for the abolition of serfdom began in the Tran.

Sholokhov "The Fate of a Man"
After the war, many Soviet soldiers who were captured by the enemy were condemned as traitors to their homeland. M. Sholokhov's story "The Fate of a Man", which shows the bitter lot of a soldier, made society look differently at the tragic fate of prisoners of war. A law was passed on their rehabilitation.

A.S. Pushkin
Speaking about the role of personality in history, one can recall the poetry of the great A. Pushkin. He has influenced more than one generation with his gift. He saw, heard what an ordinary person did not notice and did not understand. The poet spoke about the problems of spirituality in art, and his high appointment was in the poems "The Prophet", "The Poet", "I erected a monument to myself not made by hands." Reading these works, you understand: talent is not only a gift, but also a heavy burden, a great responsibility. The poet himself was an example of civic behavior for subsequent generations.

V.M. Shukshin "Chudik"
"Chudik" is an absent-minded person who may seem ill-mannered. And what prompts him to do strange things are positive, unselfish motives. Chudik reflects on the problems of concern to humanity at all times: what is the meaning of life? What are good and evil? Who in this life is “right, who is smarter”? And by all his actions he proves that he is right, and not those who believe

I. A. Goncharov "Oblomov"
This is the image of a person who only wanted to. He wanted to change his life, he wanted to rebuild the life of the estate, he wanted to raise children ... But he did not have the strength to realize these desires, so his dreams remained dreams.

M. Gorky in the play "At the Bottom".
He showed the drama of "former people" who have lost the strength to fight for their own sake. They hope for something good, they understand that they need to live better, but they do nothing in order to change their fate. It is no coincidence that the action of the play begins in the flophouse and ends there.

From the history

  • Ancient historians tell that once a stranger came to the Roman emperor, who brought a gift of a shiny, like silver, but extremely soft metal. The master said that he mines this metal from the clay-sting earth. The emperor, fearing that the new metal would devalue his treasures, ordered the inventor's head to be cut off.
  • Archimedes, knowing that man suffers from drought, from hunger, proposed new ways of irrigating the land. Thanks to its opening, the yield has increased sharply, people have ceased to be afraid of hunger.
  • Prominent scientist Fleming discovered penicillin. This drug has saved the lives of millions of people who previously died of blood poisoning.
  • An English engineer in the middle of the 19th century proposed an improved cartridge. But officials from the military department arrogantly told him: "We are already strong, only the weak need to improve weapons."
  • The famous scientist Jenner, who defeated smallpox with the help of vaccinations, was inspired by the words of an ordinary peasant woman. The doctor told her that she had smallpox. To this the woman calmly replied: "It cannot be, because I already had cowpox." The doctor did not consider these words to be the result of dark ignorance, but began to conduct observations, which led to an ingenious discovery.
  • The early Middle Ages are usually called "dark ages". The raids of the barbarians, the destruction of ancient civilization led to a deep decline in culture. It was difficult to find a literate person not only among the commoners, but also among the people of the upper class. For example, the founder of the Frankish state, Charlemagne, did not know how to write. However, the thirst for knowledge is inherent in humans. The same Charlemagne, during the campaigns, always carried with him wax tablets for writing, on which, under the guidance of teachers, he painstakingly inscribed letters.
  • For millennia, ripe apples fell from the trees, but no one attached any significance to this common phenomenon. The great Newton had to be born in order to look at the familiar fact with new, more penetrating eyes and discover the universal law of motion.
  • It is impossible to calculate how many calamities have been brought to people by their ignorance. In the Middle Ages, any misfortune: illness of a child, death of livestock, rain, drought, crop failure, loss of any thing - everything was explained by the origin of evil spirits. A fierce witch-hunt began, and bonfires burned. Instead of curing diseases, improving agriculture, helping each other, people spent enormous energy on a senseless struggle with the mythical "servants of Satan", not realizing that with their blind fanaticism, their dark ignorance, they are serving the Devil.
  • It is difficult to overestimate the role of a mentor in human development. There is a curious legend about the meeting of Socrates with Xenophon, the future historian. Once talking with a stranger young man, Socrates asked him where to go to get flour and butter. Young Xenophon replied briskly: "To the market." Socrates asked: "What about wisdom and virtue?" The young man was surprised. "Follow me, I'll show you!" - promised Socrates. And he connected the long-term path to truth with a strong friendship between the famous teacher and his student.
  • The desire to learn new things lives in each of us, and sometimes this feeling takes over a person so much that it makes him change his life path. Today, few people know that Joule, who discovered the law of conservation of energy, was a cook. The ingenious Faraday began his journey as a peddler in a shop. And Coulomb worked as an engineer for serf structures and physics, giving only his free time from work. For these people, the search for something new has become the meaning of life.
  • New ideas make their way in a difficult struggle with old views, established opinions. So, one of the professors, lectured students on physics, called Einstein's theory of relativity "an annoying scientific misunderstanding" -
  • At one time, Joule used a voltaic battery to start an electric motor he had assembled from it. But the battery soon ran out, and the new one was very expensive. Joule decided that the horse would never be supplanted by an electric motor, since it was much cheaper to feed the horse than to change the zinc in the battery. Today, when electricity is used everywhere, the opinion of an outstanding scientist seems naive to us. This example shows that it is very difficult to predict the future, it is difficult to contemplate the possibilities that will open before a person.
  • In the middle of the 17th century, from Paris to the island of Martinique, Captain de Clieu was carrying a stalk of coffee in a pot of earth. The voyage was very difficult: the ship survived a fierce battle with pirates, a terrible storm nearly smashed it on the rocks. On the ship, the masts were not broken, the tackle was broken. Gradually, fresh water supplies began to dry up. She was given out in strictly measured portions. The captain, barely keeping his feet from thirst, gave the last drops of precious moisture to the green sprout ... Several years passed, and coffee trees covered the island of Martinique.

I. Bunin in the story "The gentleman from San Francisco".
Showed the fate of a man who served false values. Wealth was his god, and this god he worshiped. But when the American millionaire died, it turned out that real happiness passed by the person: he died without knowing what life is.

Yesenin. "Black man".
The poem "The Black Man" is the cry of Yesenin's dying soul, it is a requiem for the life left behind. Yesenin, like no one else, was able to tell what life does to a person.

Mayakovsky. "Listen."
The inner conviction of the correctness of their moral ideals separated Mayakovsky from other poets, from the usual course of life. This isolation gave rise to a spiritual protest against the philistine environment, where there were no high spiritual ideals. The poem is the cry of the poet's soul.

Zamyatin "The Cave".
The hero comes into conflict with himself, a split occurs in his soul. His spiritual values ​​perish. He violates the commandment "Thou shalt not steal."

V. Astafiev "The Tsar is a Fish".

  • In V. Astafiev's story "The Tsar is a Fish" the main character, the fisherman Utrobin, having caught a huge fish on the hook, is unable to cope with it. In order to avoid death, he is forced to let her go free. An encounter with a fish that symbolizes the moral principle in nature makes this poacher reconsider his ideas about life. In moments of desperate struggle with fish, he suddenly remembers his whole life, realizing that how little he has done for other people. This meeting changes the hero morally.
  • Nature is alive and spiritualized, endowed with morally punishing power, it is capable not only of defending itself, but also of not retribution. The fate of Gosha Gertsev, the hero of Astafiev's story "The Tsar is a Fish", serves as an illustration of the punishing power. This hero is not a punishment for arrogant cynicism towards people and towards nature. Punishing power extends not only to individual heroes. The imbalance poses a threat to all of humanity if it is not conscious of its intentional or forced cruelty.

I. S. Turgenev "Fathers and Sons".

  • People forget that nature is their home and the only home that requires a careful attitude towards itself, which is confirmed in the novel by I. S. Turgenev "Fathers and Sons". The protagonist, Evgeny Bazarov, is known for his categorical position: "Nature is not a temple, but a workshop, and a person is a worker in it." This is how the Author sees in him a "new" person: he is indifferent to the values ​​accumulated by previous generations, lives in the present and uses everything he needs, without thinking about what consequences this may lead to.
  • The novel by I. Turgenev "Fathers and Sons" raises the actual topic of the relationship between nature and man. Bazarov, rejecting any aesthetic enjoyment of nature, perceives it as a workshop, and man as a worker. Arkady, a friend of Bazarov, on the contrary, treats her with all the admiration inherent in a young soul. In the novel, each character is tested by nature. Communication with the outside world helps Arkady to heal his emotional wounds, for him this unity is natural and pleasant. Bazarov, on the contrary, does not seek contact with her - when Bazarov felt bad, he "went into the forest and broke branches." She does not give him the desired comfort or peace of mind. Thus, Turgenev emphasizes the need for a fruitful and two-way dialogue with nature.

M. Bulgakov. "Dog's heart".
Professor Preobrazhensky transplants a part of the human brain to Sharik's dog, turning a quite cute dog into a disgusting Polygraph Poligrafovich Sharikov. You can't mindlessly interfere with nature!

A. Block
The problem of a thoughtless, cruel person towards the natural world is reflected in many literary works. To fight it, you need to realize and see the harmony and beauty that reigns around us. The works of A. Blok will help in this. With what love he describes Russian nature in his poems! Vast distances, endless roads, deep rivers, blizzards and gray huts. Such is Blok's Russia in the poems "Rus", "Autumn Day". The poet's true filial love for his native nature is transmitted to the reader. You come to the idea that nature is original, beautiful and needs our protection.

B. Vasiliev "Don't Shoot White Swans"

  • Now, when nuclear power plants explode, when oil flows along rivers and seas, entire forests disappear, a person must stop and think about the question: what will remain on our planet? In B. Vasiliev's novel "Don't Shoot White Swans", the author's idea about the responsibility of man for nature is also expressed. The main character of the novel, Yegor Polushkin, worries about the behavior of visiting "tourists", the lake empty at the hands of poachers. The novel is perceived as a call to everyone to take care of our land and each other.
  • The main character, Yegor Polushkin, loves nature infinitely, always works conscientiously, lives quietly, but always turns out to be guilty. The reason for this is that Yegor could not violate the harmony of nature, he was afraid to invade the living world. But people did not understand him, they considered him not adapted to life. He said that man is not the king of nature, but her eldest son. In the end, he dies at the hands of those who do not understand the beauty of nature, who are used only to conquer it. But the son is growing up. Who can replace his father, will respect and protect his native land.

V. Astafiev "Belogrudka"
In the story "Belogrudok", the children killed a brood of a white-breasted marten, and she, mad with grief, takes revenge on all the surrounding world, destroying poultry in two neighboring villages, until she herself dies from a rifle charge

Ch.Aitmatov "Plakha"
Man destroys the multicolored and populous world of nature with his own hands. The writer warns that the senseless extermination of animals is a threat to earthly prosperity. The position of the "king" in relation to animals is fraught with tragedy.

A.S. Pushkin "Eugene Onegin"

In the novel by A.S. Pushkin's "Eugene Onegin", the main character could not find spiritual harmony, cope with the "Russian blues", including because he was indifferent to nature. And the author's “sweet ideal” Tatiana felt like a part of nature (“She loved to warn the dawn of the sunrise on the balcony ...”) and therefore showed herself in a difficult life situation as a spiritually strong person.

A.T. Tvardovsky "Forest in autumn"
Reading Tvardovsky's poem "Forest in Autumn", you are imbued with the pristine beauty of the surrounding world, nature. You hear the noise of bright yellow foliage, the crackle of a broken knot. You see the light jump of the squirrel. I would like not only to admire, but to try to preserve all this beauty as long as possible.

L. N. Tolstoy "War and Peace"
Natasha Rostova, admiring the beauty of the night in Otradnoye, is ready to fly like a bird: she is inspired by what she has seen. She enthusiastically tells Sonya about the wonderful night, about the feelings that overwhelm her soul. Andrei Bolkonsky also knows how to subtly feel the beauty of the surrounding nature. During a trip to Otradnoye, seeing an old oak tree, he compares himself to it, indulging in sad thoughts that life has already ended for him. But the changes that subsequently took place in the soul of the hero are associated with the beauty and grandeur of the mighty tree that blossomed under the rays of the sun.

V.I. Yurovskikh Vasily Ivanovich Yurovskikh
Writer Vasily Ivanovich Yurovskikh, in his stories tells about the unique beauty and wealth of the Trans-Urals, about the natural connection of a village man with the natural world, therefore his story "Ivan's memory" is so touching. In this small piece, the Yurovskikh raises an important issue: the human impact on the environment. Ivan, the protagonist of the story, planted several willow bushes in the swamp, which frightened people and animals. Many years later. The nature around has changed: all sorts of birds began to settle in the bush, the magpie every year began to make a nest, and the magpies began to hatch. No one wandered through the forest anymore, because the telnik became a guide on how to find the right way. Near the bushes you can take shelter from the heat, drink some water, and just relax. Ivan left a good memory of himself among people, and ennobled the surrounding nature.

M.Yu. Lermontov "A Hero of Our Time"
A close emotional connection between man and nature can be traced in Lermontov's story "A Hero of Our Time". The events in the life of the main character, Grigory Pechorin, are accompanied by a change in the state of nature in accordance with the changes in his mood. So, considering the scene of the duel, the gradation of the states of the surrounding world and the feelings of Pechorin is obvious. If before the duel the sky seemed to him “fresh and blue”, and the sun “shining brightly”, then after the duel, looking at the corpse of Grushnitsky, the heavenly body seemed to Grigory “dull”, and its rays “did not warm”. The nature is not only the experience of the heroes, but is also one of the protagonists. The thunderstorm becomes the reason for the long meeting between Pechorin and Vera, and in one of the diary entries preceding the meeting with Princess Mary, Grigory notes that "the air of Kislovodsk is conducive to love." With such an allegory, Lermontov not only more deeply and fully reflects the inner state of the heroes, but also denotes his own, author's presence by introducing nature as a character.

E. Zamyatina "We"
Turning to classical literature, I would like to cite as an example the anti-utopian novel "We" by E. Zamyatin. Rejecting the natural beginning, the inhabitants of the One State become numbers, whose life is determined by the framework of the Hourly Tablet. The beauties of native nature have been replaced by perfectly proportioned glass structures, and love is possible only with a pink card. The main character, D-503, is doomed to mathematically verified happiness, which is acquired, however, after the removal of fantasy. It seems to me that with such an allegory Zamyatin tried to express the indissolubility of the connection between nature and man.

S. Yesenin "Goy you, Russia, my dear"
One of the central themes of the lyrics of the brightest poet of the XX century S. Yesenin is the nature of his native land. In the poem "Goy you, Russia, my dear" the poet renounces paradise for the sake of his homeland, her flock above the eternal bliss, which, judging by other lyrics, he finds only on Russian soil. Thus, feelings of patriotism and love for nature are closely intertwined. The very realization of their gradual weakening is the first step towards a natural, real world that enriches the soul and body.

M. Prishvin "Ginseng"
This theme is brought to life by moral and ethical motives. Many writers and poets have turned to her. In M. Prishvin's story "Ginseng" the heroes know how to be silent and listen to silence. For the author, nature is life itself. Therefore, his rock is crying, the stone has a heart. It is a person who must do everything so that nature exists and does not fall silent. This is very important in our time.

I.S. Turgenev "Notes of a Hunter"
I. S. Turgenev expressed his deep and tender love for nature in the Notes of a Hunter. He did this with keen observation. The hero of the story "Kasyan" traveled half of the country from the Beautiful Mosque, happily recognizing and exploring new places. This man felt his inextricable connection with mother - nature and dreamed that "every man" would live in contentment and justice. It would not hurt us to learn from him.

M. Bulgakov. "Fatal eggs"
Professor Persikov accidentally, instead of large chickens, breeds giant reptiles that threaten civilization. Such consequences can lead to thoughtless interference in the life of nature.

Ch. Aitmatov "Plakha"
Ch. Aitmatov in the novel "Plakha" showed that the destruction of the natural world leads to a dangerous deformation of a person. And it happens everywhere. What is happening in the Moyunkum Savannah is a global issue, not a local issue.

A closed model of the world in the novel by E.I. Zamyatin "We".
1) The appearance and principles of the One State. 2) The narrator, number D - 503, and his spiritual illness. 3) "Resistance of human nature". In dystopias, the world based on the same premises is given through the eyes of its inhabitant, an ordinary citizen, from the inside, in order to trace and show the feelings of a person who undergoes the laws of an ideal state. The conflict between the personality and the totalitarian system becomes the driving force of any dystopia, allowing one to identify dystopian features in the most diverse works at first glance ... The society depicted in the novel has reached material perfection and stopped in its development, plunged into a state of spiritual and social entropy.

A.P. Chekhov in the story "The Death of an Official"

B.Vasiliev "Not on the lists"
The works make you think about the questions that everyone seeks to answer: what is behind the high moral choice - what are the forces of the human mind, soul, fate, what helps a person to resist, to show amazing, amazing vitality, helps to live and die “like a human being”?

M. Sholokhov "The Fate of a Man"
Despite the difficulties and trials that fell to the lot of the main character Andrei Sokolov, he always remained faithful to himself and his homeland. Nothing broke the spiritual strength in him or eradicated the sense of duty in him.

A.S. Pushkin "The Captain's Daughter".

Pyotr Grinev is a man of honor, in any life situation he acts as honor tells him. Even his ideological enemy, Pugachev, could appreciate the hero's nobility. That is why he helped Grinev more than once.

Leo Tolstoy "War and Peace".

The Bolkonsky family is the personification of honor and nobility. Prince Andrew always put the laws of honor in the first place, followed them, even if it required incredible efforts, suffering, pain.

Loss of spiritual values

B. Vasiliev "Glukhoman"
The events of Boris Vasiliev's story "Glukhoman" allow us to see how in today's life the so-called "new Russians" are striving to enrich themselves at any cost. Spiritual values ​​have been lost because culture has gone from our lives. The society split, in it the bank account became the measure of a person's merits. Moral deafness began to grow in the souls of people who had lost faith in goodness and justice.

A.S. Pushkin "The Captain's Daughter"
Shvabrin Alexey Ivanovich, the hero of the story by A.S. Pushkin's "The Captain's Daughter" is a nobleman, but he is dishonest: having wooed Masha Mironova and being refused, he takes revenge by speaking ill of her; during a duel with Grinev, he stabs him in the back. The complete loss of notions of honor predetermines social betrayal: as soon as Pugachev gets the Belogorsk fortress, Shvabrin goes over to the side of the rebels.

Leo Tolstoy "War and Peace".

Helen Kuragina tricked Pierre into marrying himself, then lying to him all the time, being a wife, dishonoring him, making him unhappy. The heroine uses lies to get rich, to gain a good position in society.

NV Gogol "The Inspector General".

Khlestakov is deceiving officials, posing as an auditor. Trying to impress, he composes many stories about his life in St. Petersburg. Moreover, he lies so delightfully that he himself begins to believe his stories, he feels important and significant.

D.S. Likhachev in "Letters about the Good and the Beautiful"
D.S. Likhachev, in "Letters about the Good and the Beautiful," tells how he felt a daring feeling when he learned that in 1932 the cast-iron monument on the grave of Bagration was blown up on the Borodino field. Then someone left a giant inscription on the wall of the monastery, built on the site of the death of another hero - Tuchkov: "Enough to keep the remnants of the slave past!" At the end of the 60s, the Travel Palace was demolished in Leningrad, which, even during the war, our soldiers tried to preserve, not to destroy. Likhachev believes that "the loss of any cultural monument is irreparable: they are always individual."

L.N. Tolstoy "War and Peace"

  • In the Rostov family, everything was built on sincerity and kindness, respect for each other and understanding, therefore the children - Natasha, Nikolay, Petya - became really good people.They are responsive to other people's pain, they are able to understand feelings and suffering others. Suffice it to recall the episode when Natasha gives the order to free the carts, loaded with their family values, in order to give them to the wounded soldiers.
  • And in the Kuragin family, where career and money decided everything, both Helen and Anatole are immoral egoists. Both are looking for only benefits in life. They do not know what true love is and are ready to exchange their feelings for wealth.

A. Pushkin "The Captain's Daughter"

And when the first Soviet soldiers entered the burned-out farm, it seemed to Maria that she had given birth not only to her son, but to all the children of the world destitute by the war. That is why she is the Mother of Man.

K.I. Chukovsky "Alive as life"
K.I. Chukovsky in his book "Alive as Life" analyzes the state of the Russian language, our speech and comes to disappointing conclusions: we ourselves distort and disfigure our great and powerful language.

I.S. Turgenev
- Take care of our language, our beautiful Russian language, this treasure, this property passed on to us by our predecessors, among whom Pushkin shines again! Treat this powerful tool with respect: in the hands of the skilled, it is able to perform miracles ... Protect the purity of the language as a sacred thing!

K.G. Paustovsky
- You can work wonders with the Russian language. There is nothing in life and in our minds that cannot be conveyed by the Russian word ... There are no sounds, colors, images and thoughts - complex and simple - for which there would not be an exact expression in our language.

A. P. Chekhov "Death of an official"
The official Chervyakov in the story of A.P. Chekhov “The Death of an Official” is incredibly infected with the spirit of honor: sneezing and burping the bald spot in front of the sitting general Bryzzhalov (who did not pay attention to it), the hero was so frightened, that after repeated humiliated requests to forgive him, he died of fear.

A. P. Chekhov "Thick and Thin"

A.S. Griboyedov "Woe from Wit"
Molchalin, the negative character of the comedy, is sure that one should please not only "all people without exception", but even "the janitor's dog, so that it was affectionate."

I. S. Turgenev. "Notes of a Hunter"
In the story "Biryuk" the main character, a forester, nicknamed Biryuk, lives poorly, despite the conscientious fulfillment of his duties. The social structure of life is unfair.

N. A. Nekrasov "Railway"
The poem tells about who built the railway. These are workers who have been mercilessly exploited. The arrangement of life, where arbitrariness reigns, is worthy of condemnation. In the poem "Reflections at the front entrance": the peasants came from distant villages with a petition to the nobleman, but they were not accepted, they were driven away. Power does not consider the position of the people.

L. N. Tolstoy "After the ball"
The division of Russia into two parts, rich and poor, is shown. The social world is unfair to the weak.

N. Ostrovsky "Thunderstorm"
There can be nothing sacred, nothing right in a world ruled by tyranny, wild and insane.

V.V. Mayakovsky

  • In the play "The Bedbug" Pierre Skripkin dreamed that his house would be "a full bowl". Another hero, a former worker, claims: "Those who fought have the right to rest by a quiet river." This position was alien to Mayakovsky. He dreamed of the spiritual growth of his contemporaries.

I. S. Turgenev "Notes of a Hunter"
The personality of everyone is important for the development of the state, but not always talented people can develop their abilities for the benefit of society. For example, in “Notes of a Hunter” by I.S. Turgenev, there are people whose talents are not needed by the country. Jacob ("The Singers") drinks himself into a pub. The truth-seeker Mitya ("Odnodvorets Ovsyannikov") stands up for the serfs. Forester Biryuk is responsible for his service, but lives in poverty. Such people turned out to be unnecessary. They even laugh at them. This is not fair.

A.I. Solzhenitsyn "One day of Ivan Denisovich"
Despite the dire details of camp life and the unfair organization of society, Solzhenitsyn's works are optimistic in spirit. The writer proved that even in the last degree of humiliation it is possible to keep a person in oneself.

And A. Goncharov. "Oblomov"
Ilya Oblomov, a kind and talented person, could not overcome himself and reveal his best features. The reason is the lack of high goals in the life of society.

A.M. Gorky
Many heroes of M. Gorky's stories talk about the meaning of life. The old gypsy Makar Chudra wondered why people work. The heroes of the story "On Salt" found themselves in the same impasse. Around them - cars, salt dust, eating away the eyes. However, no one was embittered. Even such oppressed people have good feelings in their souls. The meaning of life, according to Gorky, is in work. Everyone will begin to work conscientiously - you look, and we will all become richer and better together. After all, "the wisdom of life is always deeper and broader than the wisdom of people."

M. I. Weller "The Novel of Education"
The meaning of life is in the one who himself devotes his activity for the sake of the cause that he considers necessary. The Novel of Education by MI Weller, one of the most published contemporary Russian writers, makes one think about this. Indeed, there have always been a lot of purposeful people, and now they live among us.

Reading the novel "War and Peace", it is difficult not to be sympathetic to Prince Bolkonsky, a thinking, seeking person. He read a lot, knew about everything.

  • In search of the meaning of life, a person must choose his own direction. In Leo Tolstoy's novel War and Peace, the fate of Andrei Bolkonsky is a difficult path of moral losses and discoveries. The important thing is that, walking along this thorny road, he retained true human dignity. It is no coincidence that MI Kutuzov will say to the hero: "Your road is the road of honor."

Paustovsky shows that Nastya is not soulless: she sympathizes with Timofeev, spends a lot of time organizing his exhibition. How could it happen that Nastya, caring about others, shows inattention to her own mother? It turns out that it is one thing to get carried away with work, to do it with all your heart, to give it all your strength, physical and mental, and it is another thing to remember about your loved ones, about your mother - the most holy being in the world, not limited to money orders and short notes.

Arguments for an essay on the Russian language.
Language.
The problem of language, borrowings, clericalism, clogging of the language, attitude to language, quality of speech, mental tact, eloquence, beauty of the artistic word.

Human relation to language

Language, even more than clothing, testifies to a person's taste, his attitude to the world around him, to himself. There are all sorts of sloppiness in the language of man. If a person was born and lives far from the city and speaks his own dialect, there is no sloppiness in this. Dialects are often an inexhaustible source of enrichment for the Russian literary language. It is a different matter if a person lives in a city for a long time, knows the norms of the literary language, but retains the forms and words of his village. This may be because he considers them beautiful and is proud of them. In this I see pride in my homeland. This is not bad, and it does not humiliate a person. If a person does this on purpose to show that he is "truly rural", then this is both funny and cynical. Flaunting rudeness in language, like flaunting rudeness in manners, untidiness in clothing, basically indicates a person's psychological insecurity, his weakness, and not at all about strength. The speaker seeks to suppress the feeling of fear, fear, sometimes just apprehension with a rude joke, a harsh expression, irony, cynicism. By rude nicknames of teachers, it is the weak-willed students who want to show that they are not afraid of them. This happens semi-consciously. This is a sign of bad manners, unintelligence, and sometimes cruelty. By this, rudely speaking people seem to want to show that they are higher than those phenomena that in fact they are afraid of. Any slang, cynical expressions and swearing are based on weakness. People who "spit with words" demonstrate their contempt for the traumatic phenomena in life because they bother them, torment them, worry that they feel weak, not protected against them. A truly strong and healthy, balanced person will not speak loudly unnecessarily, will not swear and use slang words. After all, he is sure that his word is so weighty.

Is it possible to judge a person by the way he speaks?
D.S. Likhachev. "Letters about the good and the beautiful."
A truly strong and healthy, balanced person will not speak loudly unnecessarily, will not swear and use slang words. After all, he is sure that his word is so weighty.
Our language is an essential part of our overall behavior in life. And by the way a person speaks, we can immediately and easily judge who we are dealing with: we can determine the degree of a person's intelligence, the degree of his psychological equilibrium, the degree of his possible "complexes".

Why is it important to speak correctly?
D.S. Likhachev. "Letters about the good and the beautiful."
It is necessary to learn good, calm, intelligent speech for a long time and carefully - listening, memorizing, noticing, reading and studying. Our speech is the most important part not only of our behavior, but also of our personality, our soul, mind, our ability not to succumb to the influences of the environment, if it "drags on".

What should be a scientific language?
D.S. Likhachev. "Letters about the good and the beautiful."
But in general, it should be remembered: the inaccuracies of language arise primarily from the inaccuracy of thought. Therefore, a scientist, engineer, economist - a person of any profession should take care when writing, first of all, about the accuracy of thought. Strict correspondence of thought to language and gives ease of style. The language should be simple (I'm talking now about a common and scientific language - not about the language of fiction).
Fear empty eloquence! The language of scientific work should be light, imperceptible, beauty is unacceptable in it, and its beauty lies in the sense of proportion.
You can't just write "pretty". It is necessary to write accurately and meaningfully, justifiably resorting to images. Colorful expressions tend to reappear again and again in different articles and works of individual authors.
The main thing is to strive to ensure that the phrase is immediately understood correctly. For this, the arrangement of words and the brevity of the phrase itself are of great importance.
The reader's attention should be focused on the author's thoughts, and not on solving what the author wanted to say. Therefore, the simpler the better. One should not be afraid of repetitions of the same word, of the same phrase. The stylistic requirement not to repeat the same word side by side is often incorrect. This requirement may not be the rule in all cases.
Rhythm and readability of the phrase! People, reading, mentally pronounce the text. It must be pronounced easily. And in this case, the main thing is in the arrangement of words, in the construction of the phrase. You should not overuse subordinate clauses. A noun (albeit repeated) is better than a pronoun. Avoid expressions "in the latter case", "as stated above" and so on.

What is bureaucracy and how is it dangerous?

“What is he, the office clerk? He has very accurate marks, common to both translated and Russian literature. This is the repression of the verb, that is, movement, action, by a participle, a participle, a noun (especially a verb!), Which means stagnation, immobility. And of all the verb forms, addiction to the infinitive. This is a heap of nouns in indirect cases, most often long chains of nouns in the same case - genitive, so that it is no longer possible to understand what refers to what and what it is about. This is an abundance of foreign words where they can be completely replaced with Russian words. This is the displacement of active revolutions by passive ones, which are almost always heavier and more cumbersome. This is a heavy, confused structure of phrases, unintelligibility. Countless subordinate clauses, doubly heavy and unnatural in colloquial speech. This is dullness, monotony, wear and tear, a cliche. Poor, meager vocabulary: both the author and the heroes speak the same dry, official language. Always, without any reason or need, they prefer a long word to a short one, official or bookish to colloquial, complex to a simple one, a cliché to a living image. In short, bureaucracy is carrion. He penetrates into fiction, and into everyday life, into oral speech. Even in the nursery. From official materials, from newspapers, from radio and television, the clerical language is passing into everyday practice. For many years they lectured like that, wrote textbooks and even ABC books. Fed up with linguistic swan and chaff, teachers in their turn feed the same dry, callous and dead words to all new generations of innocent children. "

The problem of borrowing in a language
Nora Gal. "Beware of the office."
Not every foreign word that even such giants as Pushkin, Herzen, Tolstoy tried to introduce, took root and took root in the Russian language. Much that at first attracted by novelty or seemed sharp, ironic, has worn out over the years, discolored, or even completely died out. Moreover, all these solicitors, beadles and gigi did not take root - they do not enrich the language, they do not add anything to carriages, carriages, gigantic carriages or, say, to solicitors, attorneys and judicial hooks, with the help of which creative translators, not literalists and not formalists, perfectly convey everything that (and how) Dickens wanted to say. The moral, as they say, is clear: it is not a sin to introduce foreign words and sayings even into the highest poetry. But - with tact and intelligence, at the right time and place, observing the measure. After all, even today much, very much can be perfectly expressed in Russian.
It is well known: once foreign words, especially those with Latin roots, came to our country along with new philosophical, scientific, technical concepts and phenomena for which the Russian language did not yet have its own words. Many have taken root and are no longer perceived as strangers for a long time. But even Peter I, who so zealously forced Domostroevskaya Russia to catch up with Europe in all areas, from ships to assemblies, was forced to prohibit excessive enthusiasm for foreign words. The tsar wrote to one of his ambassadors: “In your reports you use a lot of Polish and other foreign words and terms, behind which it is impossible to understand the deed itself; For the sake of that, henceforth, you should write all your comments to us in Russian, without using foreign words and terms. " A century later, VG Belinsky stood up to defend his native language: "To use a foreign language when there is an equivalent Russian word means to offend both common sense and common taste." Another century will pass, and on the same topic V. Mayakovsky will write "On the fiasco, apogee and other unknown things": So that I do not write in vain, I deduce morality too: what is suitable for a foreign dictionary is not good for a newspaper. Thoughtless, mechanical introduction of a foreign word into a Russian text often turns into outright nonsense. It is not only the feeling, the image that is distorted, but the thought also becomes indistinct. Such a powerful flow is no longer so easy to cope with. Industry could pollute the river more in the current decade than in the past thousand years. It's the same with the language. Now the purest waters can be muddied, ruined very quickly. And those who sound the alarm are right, calling to stand up for the protection of nature and for the protection of the language. Well, of course, it's funny to argue: the language does not freeze, does not stand still, but lives and develops, some words die off, others appear. But a person is a person, to learn how to manage every element, including the language.

What distinguishes a real writer?
Nora Gal. "Beware of the office."
Figurative utterances habitual from the cradle, combinations of words, proverbs, sayings, cast by the people from time immemorial by the people, are the most precious property of a writer. A real writer is only one who owns figurative speech, the inexhaustible wealth of Russian sayings, sayings, idioms - everything that animates, colors every story and every printed page. For art, as you know, is thinking in images.

The problem of mental tact in language.
Nora Gal. "Beware of the office."
This is a great thing - mental tact, correct intonation. Soon after the war, one of our major writers, a recognized artist of the word, castigating the bestial essence of Hitlerism in a newspaper article, dropped the following words: the Nazis, they say, were glad to "drink the blood of children." With all due respect to the author, I cannot but recall: what was said in this context, on this occasion, the word blood was unbearable. Orphaned mothers - and not only them - it cut their ears and souls.
It is just as impossible, it sounds offensive in the novel of a Russian author: "Red Square attracted me invitingly, but we headed in the opposite direction." Oh, how carefully one must handle the word! It can heal, but it can also hurt. An inaccurate word is bad. But much more dangerous is a tactless word. We have seen that it can vulgarize the highest concepts, the most sincere feelings. A person ceases to feel the color of a word, does not remember its origin and says "nature guards" instead of keepers. The hero of one story returned to the city of his youth, looks, sighs: "An insignificant city, but so much heart has been given to it that no matter how much you leave it, no matter how much you live in other cities, you cannot tear yourself away from it." The town is small, tiny town, but contemptuous "insignificant" is impossible here! And again, talking with respect, with tenderness about the nurse girl, a good writer suddenly said: "We will see, feel, love this" front-line sister "as an unusually beautiful kind female." And this word is much more appropriate, at least in the example from Ushakov's dictionary: "Beluga is a very large fish: some individuals reach 1200 kg." In one story, the father explained to the boy, counted on his fingers how much insurance lumberjacks were paid for injury. And it was about the fact that every day someone with a saw or an ax cuts off several fingers. Such a neighborhood jarred, and the editor suggested to the translator the simplest way out: the father spent a long time, thoroughly interpreting and calculating how much they paid for. Well, what if it is not a professional writer who writes? A prominent military man recalls the capture of Berlin. In an excerpt published by the youth newspaper, among other things, it says: “Little Berliners came up to ... camp kitchens, held out their cups and bowls with their slender little hands and comically asked:“ Eat ”. "To eat" was the first Russian word that they learned to pronounce. " Of course, the very request of the pitiful hungry children did not seem ridiculous to the author of the memoirs. Obviously, they spoke it funny, funny. It seemed funny how they mispronounced the Russian word. And, of course, a renowned military leader doesn't have to be a stylist. But one awkwardly delivered word distorts the whole intonation, in a false light portrays the feeling of the narrator, involuntarily you stumble on this not very tactful intonation. So did the editor really not stumble, felt nothing? Why didn't he suggest (tactfully!) A more appropriate word?
Even Flaubert - perhaps the strictest stylist in all world literature - said that there are no good or bad words. It all depends on whether you have chosen the right word for this particular case. And the best word becomes bad if it is said out of place. This is where tact is needed, the right flair.

How should you relate to the Russian language?
Nora Gal. "Beware of the office."
We have to repeat: we do not always preserve our wealth, our pride is our native language, as we do not always know how to preserve our native nature, lakes, forests and rivers. But for both, we are responsible to the future, to children and grandchildren. We pass on to them the cherished heritage of grandfathers and great-grandfathers. They - to live on this land, among these forests and rivers, to them - to speak the language of Pushkin and Tolstoy, to them - to read, love, repeat by heart, comprehend with their mind and heart all the best that has been created over many centuries in their native country and around the world ... So do we dare to deprive them and deprive them of? Kind people! Let's be careful, careful and discreet! Let us be careful not to "introduce into the language" something that spoils it and for which we have to blush later! We received an invaluable inheritance, what the people created over the centuries, what Pushkin and Turgenev and many more of the best talents of our land created, polished and honed for us. We are all responsible for this priceless gift. And isn't it a shame when we have such a wonderful, such rich, expressive, multicolored language to speak and write in the office ?!

How to learn to perceive the beauty of an artistic word?
Argument from L. Ulitskaya's novel "The Green Tent"
Learning to perceive the beauty of an artistic word is possible only through a sensual and deep reading of literary works, including poetry. So, one of the heroes of L. Ulitskaya's novel, the teacher of literature, Viktor Yulievich Shengeli, in order to interest schoolchildren in literature, each lesson began with reading his favorite poems by heart. He never indicated the author of the poem, and many schoolchildren took this feature condescendingly. "Poems seemed to them to be a feminine affair, rather weak for a front-line soldier." However, the teacher did not stop repeating that literature is the best that humanity has, and poetry is the “heart of literature”. Viktor Yulievich was not limited to the school curriculum, he read Pasternak, Sappho, and Annensky. Gradually, more and more students interested in literature appeared in the class, they, together with the teacher, visited historical places, learned the biographies of Russian poets and writers. Viktor Yulievich helped the children get into reading, they even formed a literary circle of lovers of Russian literature and began to call themselves "lurs". Love for literature determined the future life of the main characters of the novel. The guys read books at night, passed rare copies from hand to hand, took pictures of especially valuable books. Mikha, who already from the first lessons caught every word of his beloved teacher, entered the Faculty of Philology and became a teacher, and for many years Ilya was engaged in publishing and distributing forbidden literature. Thus, the thirst for books and the ability to perceive the beauty of the artistic word determined not only the circle of their reading, but also the path of life.

Perhaps, for any student, the most difficult part in the Unified State Exam in the Russian language is the composition of Part C.

Keep the tables you want, or just study them, and then you don't need to re-read a bunch of literary works to write a good essay in Part C. So, arguments!

THE PROBLEM OF EXTRA MAN!

1) The problem of “an extra person” has repeatedly found reflection in Russian literature. “Superfluous person” is a special concrete historical socio-psychological variety of a more general type of “strange person”. “A superfluous person” we can call the main character of the work Lermontov "A Hero of Our Time" Pechorin. The personality of Pechorin in the novel is wider than his time, environment, specific circumstances, offered to him by the society of social roles. Awareness of oneself as a spiritually free integral person, responsible not only for individual actions, but also for choosing a life position, for the implementation of his “high purpose”, and at the same time a tragic misunderstanding of his purpose makes Pechorin “an extra person”.

2) Another hero, which may well be called "Superfluous man," is the hero of the same name novel in verse by Eugene Onegin... Onegin lives by the principles of the surrounding society, but at the same time he is far from it. Belonging to the light, he despises it. Onegin does not find his true purpose and place in life, he is burdened by his loneliness. It is Eugene Onegin who opens a whole "gallery of superfluous people" in Russian literature.

PROBLEM OF SEVERE CHILDHOOD!

1) We will find many works of Russian classical literature that reflect this problem. Let us recall, for example, little twelve-year-old Vaska from Kuprin's works "In the bowels of the Earth", who is forced to work in a mine, which seems to him a strange and incomprehensible monster. Vaska is also a child with a stolen childhood. He is forced to go to work in the mine, although he does not understand the customs prevailing among the workers, and the work itself is too hard for a boy of twelve years old.

2) It's not just literary works that teach us to appreciate what we have. Almost every child knows the real stories about children participating in the military battles of the Great Patriotic War. We remember the names of Leni Golikov, Vali Kotik, Zina Portnova, Nadia Bogdanova. All of them lost their childhood in the war, and some of them lost their lives.

THE PROBLEM OF BRIBERY AND OFFICIALITY!

1) Recall the work N.V. Gogol "The Inspector General"... Having learned about the visit of the inspector, the officials are terribly frightened and try to “prepare” for his arrival. For example, the trustee of charitable institutions is advised to dress the sick in clean caps, and in general, to make sure that there are fewer patients. As a result, all the officials decide to give a bribe "supposedly on credit" to Khlestakov, who is mistaken for the auditor. All this shows that already in the time of Nikolai Vasilyevich, bribery and lawlessness of officials were a rather big problem.

2) B Dante's Divine Comedy in one of the circles of hell, the devils throw bribe-takers into a ditch filled with boiling tar. The devils also make sure that the bribe takers do not protrude from the boiling resin, and those who protrude, they hit with hooks.

THE PROBLEM OF FATHERS AND CHILDREN!

1)"Fathers and Sons" I. S. Turgenev. The protagonist of the novel, Yevgeny Bazarov, denies all kinds of feelings, friendship, love. He never shows his warm attitude towards his parents, who are madly in love with their son and admire him. The hero communicates little with his parents, after a long separation he leaves, having stayed for only a few days .... Only before his death Bazarov realizes how much he really loves them.
