The name of the work of the French writer Francois Rabelais. Francois Rabelais - biography, information, personal life

The work of the great Russian writer Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev is a hymn to high, inspired, poetic love. Suffice it to recall the novels Rudin (1856), The Noble Nest (1859), On the Eve (1860), the stories Asya (1858), First Love (1860) and many other works. Love in the eyes of Turgenev is primarily mysterious: “There are such moments in life, such feelings ... You can only point at them and pass by,” we read at the end of the novel “The Nest of Nobles”. At the same time, Turgenev considered the ability to love a measure of human value. This conclusion applies to the full extent to the novel “Fathers and Sons”.

Love plays an essential role in the life of Nikolai Petrovich Kirsanov. Having married immediately after the death of his parents, Nikolai Petrovich completely surrenders to the peaceful flow of village life. "Ten years have passed like a dream." The death of his wife is a terrible blow for Nikolai Petrovich. “He barely took this blow, turned gray in a few weeks; I was about to go abroad in order to disperse at least a little ... but then the 48th year came.

Nikolai Petrovich's relationship with Fenechka is much calmer, “... she was so young, so alone; Nikolai Petrovich himself was so kind and modest... There is nothing else to say...” Fenech attracts Kirsanov precisely with his youth and beauty.

Turgenev also leads Pavel Petrovich Kirsanov through trials of love. Meeting at the ball with Princess R. dramatically changed the life of the hero.

Pavel Petrovich is unable to resist his feelings. Let's observe the relationship between Kirsanov and Princess R. “It was hard for Pavel Petrovich when Princess R. loved him; but when she cooled off towards him, and this happened quite soon, he nearly went mad. He was tormented and jealous ... dragged her everywhere ... retired ... ”Unrequited love finally unsettles Pavel Petrovich. “Ten years have passed ... colorless, fruitless and fast, terribly fast.” The news of the death of Princess R. makes Pavel Petrovich abandon everything and settle in the family estate, “... having lost his past, he lost everything.” The duel with Bazarov because of Fenechka speaks, of course, not about the strength of Kirsanov's feelings, but about petty jealousy and a desire to avenge the defeat in the dispute. But is it possible to say that the “old men” Kirsanovs did not pass the test of love? It seems to me that it is impossible. Too strong and complex feeling - love!

In Arkady Kirsanov's judgments about love, the influence of Bazarov is felt. Like his "teacher", the younger Kirsanov considers love "nonsense", "nonsense", "romanticism". However, real life quickly puts everything in its place. Acquaintance with Anna Sergeevna Odintsova makes Arkady feel like a "schoolboy", "student" next to her. “On the contrary, with Katya Arkady was at home ...” Young Kirsanov, in the words of Bazarov, was not created for a “tart, bean life”. The fate of Arkady is typical. Having married Katerina Sergeevna, he becomes a “zealous master”. “Katerina Sergeevna’s son Kolya was born, and Mitya is already running well and chatting loudly.” Arkady's interests are closed in a close circle of family and economic concerns.

Let us now try to find out what love means in Bazarov’s life, because the young nihilist denies all “romantic feelings”. However, Bazarov is "far from being a misogynist." He was “a great hunter for women and female beauty, but love in the sense of the ideal, or, as he put it, romantic, he called rubbish, unforgivable nonsense ...” Fenechka attracts Bazarov in the same way as the Kirsanov brothers - youth, purity, spontaneity . The duel with Pavel Petrovich takes place at the moment when Bazarov is passionate about Odintsova. It turns out that Bazarov does not love Fenechka, he feels a purely instinctive attraction to her. Relations with Odintsova are another matter. “He liked Odintsova: the widespread rumors about her, the freedom and independence of her thoughts, her undoubted disposition towards him - everything seemed to speak in his favor; but he soon realized that with her “you won’t get any sense”, and he, to his amazement, did not have the strength to turn away from her. Turgenev draws the hero's inner struggle with himself. This is precisely the explanation for Bazarov's ostentatious cynicism. “Such a rich body! At least now to the anatomical theater, ”he says about Odintsova. Meanwhile, Arkady notices in his friend and teacher an unusual excitement, even timidity in relations with Odintsova. Bazarov’s feelings are not only physical passion, it’s love, “... he would easily cope with his blood, but something else entered into him, which he did not allow, which he always mocked, which outraged all his pride” .

Bazarov's struggle with his feelings is initially doomed to failure. With his novel, the writer affirms the eternal values ​​of love, beauty, art, nature. During a meeting with Odintsova, Bazarov suddenly feels the stunning beauty and mystery of a summer night, “... through the occasionally swaying curtain, the irritable freshness of the night poured in, its mysterious whisper was heard. Odintsova did not move a single member, but a secret excitement seized her little by little ... It was communicated to Bazarov. He suddenly felt alone with a young, beautiful woman ... ”“ Love ”and“ romanticism ”, at which Bazarov laughed so caustically, enter his soul. Eugene sees perfectly well that Odintsova has “frozen” herself too much, that she highly appreciates her own calmness and measured order of life. The decision to part with Anna Sergeevna leaves a heavy mark on Bazarov's soul. Saying goodbye to Odintsova before his death, Turgenev's hero speaks of his high destiny, of tragic loneliness, of Russia. Confessional Words! These are pronounced only in front of a priest or the closest person ... Bazarov's death testifies to his originality. “To die the way Bazarov died is like doing a great feat ...” (Pisarev).

Thus, both in the life of the Kirsanov brothers and in the life of the nihilist Bazarov, love plays a tragic role. And yet the strength and depth of Bazarov's feelings do not disappear without a trace. At the end of the novel, Turgenev draws the grave of the hero and “two already decrepit old men” who come to visit it. But this is love! “Is love, holy, devoted love, not omnipotent? Oh no! No matter how passionate, sinful, rebellious the heart is hidden in the grave, the flowers growing on it serenely look at us with their innocent eyes: they tell us not only about eternal calmness, about that great calmness of “indifferent” nature; they also talk about eternal reconciliation and endless life...” This is the philosophical finale of the novel “Fathers and Sons”. The main result of Bazarov's life lies in the fact that the hero managed, albeit for a short time, to awaken direct feelings in those who are cold by nature, like Odintsova. Bazarov leaves love in the world, not hatred or nihilism. Therefore, Turgenev’s words “about eternal reconciliation and endless life ...” are so appropriate in the finale of the novel.

It was hard for Pavel Petrovich even when Princess R. loved him; but when she cooled off towards him, and this happened rather soon, he

I didn't go crazy. He was tormented and jealous, did not give her peace, dragged her everywhere; she was tired of his persistent pursuit, and she left for

border. He retired, despite the requests of his friends, the exhortations of his superiors, and went after the princess; spent four years

He is in foreign lands, now chasing her, now intentionally losing sight of her; he was ashamed of himself, he was indignant at his cowardice... but nothing

It helped. Her image, that incomprehensible, almost meaningless, but charming image, was embedded too deeply in his
soul.
In Baden he somehow got on with her again, as before; it seemed that she had never loved him so passionately ... but a month later everything was already

It's over: the fire flared up for the last time and died out forever. Anticipating the inevitable parting, he wanted at least to remain her friend, as

As if friendship with such a woman was possible ...
She quietly left Baden and since then constantly avoided Kirsanov. He returned to Russia, tried to live his old life, but already

Couldn't get back on track. As if poisoned, he wandered from place to place; he still traveled, he retained all the habits of a man of the world; is he

Could boast of two, three new victories; but he no longer expected anything special either from himself or from others, and did nothing. He

He grew old, turned gray; to sit in the evenings in a club, to be bored bitterly, to argue indifferently in bachelor society became a need for him,

- a bad sign, as you know.
Of course, he did not even think about marriage. Ten years passed in this way, colorless, fruitless and fast, terribly fast. Nowhere time

It doesn't run like in Russia; in prison, they say, it runs even faster. Once, at dinner, in a club, Pavel Petrovich learned about the death of Princess R.

She died in Paris, in a state close to insanity. He got up from the table and walked for a long time through the rooms of the club, stopping as

Rooted in, near the card players, but did not return home earlier than usual. After some time he received a packet addressed to his

Name: it contained the ring given by him to the princess. She drew a cruciform line on the sphinx and told him to say that the cross was the key.
This happened at the beginning of 1948, at the very time when Nikolai Petrovich, having lost his wife, came to St. Petersburg. Pavel Petrovich almost

I haven’t seen my brother since he settled in the village: Nikolai Petrovich’s wedding coincided with the very first days of Pavel’s acquaintance

Petrovich with the princess. Returning from abroad, he went to him with the intention of staying with him for two months, to admire his happiness, but

He survived only one week. The difference in position between the two brothers was too great. In the year 48, this difference decreased: Nikolai

Petrovich lost his wife, Pavel Petrovich lost his memories; after the death of the princess, he tried not to think about her.
But Nikolai had a sense of a well-spent life, his son grew up before his eyes; Pavel, on the contrary, a lonely bachelor, entered into

That vague, twilight time, the time of regrets, similar to hopes, hopes, similar to regrets, when youth has passed, and old age has not yet

The work of the great Russian writer Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev is a hymn to high, inspired, poetic love. Suffice it to recall the novels "Rudin", "The Nest of Nobles", "On the Eve", "Asya", "First Love" and many other works. Love, according to Turgenev, is mysterious. "There are such moments in life, such feelings ... You can only point at them - and pass by," we read in the finale of the novel "The Nest of Nobles." At the same time, Turgenev considered the ability to love a measure of human value. This fully applies to the novel "Fathers and Sons".

What does love mean in Bazarov's life? After all, the young nihilist denies all "romantic feelings." However, one cannot imagine the hero as an ascetic. He was "a great hunter for women and for female beauty, but love in the sense of the ideal, or, as he put it, romantic, he called rubbish, unforgivable nonsense ...".
Fenechka attracts Bazarov in the same way as the Kirsanov brothers - youth, purity, spontaneity. The duel with Pavel Petrovich takes place at the moment when Bazarov is out of balance with his passion for Odintsova (this is also evidenced by the symmetrical construction of the chapters). Thus, we are not talking about the hero's love for the pretty, but unpretentious and "empty" Fenechka.

Relations with Odintsova are another matter. "He liked Odintsova: the widespread rumors about her, the freedom and independence of her thoughts, her undoubted disposition towards him - everything seemed to speak in his favor, but he soon realized that in relations with her" he, to his amazement, had no strength. Turgenev shows the hero's inner struggle with himself. This is precisely the explanation for Bazarov's ostentatious cynicism. "Such a rich body! At least at the moment in the anatomical theater," he says about Odintsova. Meanwhile, Arkady notices in his friend and teacher an unusual anxiety, moreover, timidity in relations with Odintsova. Bazarov's feeling is not only physical passion, the "voice of blood", it is love. "... He would easily cope with his blood, but something else entered into him, which he did not allow, over which he constantly mocked, which outraged all his pride." Bazarov's struggle with his feelings is initially doomed to failure.

With his novel, Turgenev affirms the eternal value for a person of love, beauty, art, nature. During a meeting with Odintsova, Bazarov suddenly feels the stunning beauty and mystery of a summer night. The hero sees perfectly well that Odintsova has "frozen" herself too much, that she highly appreciates her calmness and the measured order of life. The decision to part with Anna Sergeevna leaves a heavy mark on Bazarov's soul. Saying goodbye to Odintsova before his death, Turgenev's hero speaks of his high destiny, of tragic loneliness, of Russia. Confessional Words! Such words are spoken only in front of the closest person ... Bazarov is uncommon in everything. And yet, this type of people still remains unclaimed. Bazarov is dying. "To die the way Bazarov died is like doing a great feat ..." (Pisarev).

Love plays an essential role in the life of Nikolai Petrovich Kirsanov. Having married immediately after the death of his parents, Nikolai Petrovich surrenders to the peaceful flow of village life. "Ten years have passed like a dream." The death of his wife is a terrible blow for Nikolai Petrovich. "He barely survived that same blow, turned gray in a few weeks; he was about to go abroad to unwind a little ... but then the 48th year came."

The relationship between Nikolai Petrovich and Fenechka is much calmer. "... She was so young, so lonely; Nikolai Petrovich himself was so kind and modest... There is nothing else to say..." Fenechka attracts Kirsanov precisely with her youth and beauty.

Turgenev also leads Pavel Petrovich Kirsanov through trials of love. Meeting at the ball with Princess R. changes the whole life of the hero. The "mysterious look" of a young coquette penetrates the very heart. He "met her at a ball, danced a mazurka with her, during which she did not say a single good word, and fell passionately in love with her."

Pavel Petrovich is unable to resist his feelings. Let's observe the relationship between Kirsanov and Princess R. "It was hard for Pavel Petrovich when Princess R. loved him; but when the young woman cooled off towards him, and this happened pretty soon, he almost went crazy. He was tormented and jealous ... dragged her everywhere ... retired ... "Unrequited love finally unsettles Pavel Petrovich. "Ten years have passed ... colorless, fruitless and fast, terribly fast." The news of the death of Princess R. makes Pavel Petrovich abandon the "vanity" and settle in Maryino. "... Having lost his past, he lost everything." The duel with Bazarov because of Fenechka speaks, of course, not about the strength of Kirsanov's feelings, but about petty jealousy and the desire to avenge the defeat in the dispute. But is it possible to broadcast that the "old men" Kirsanovs did not pass the test of love? It seems to me that it is impossible. Too strong and complex feeling - love!

In Arkady Kirsanov's judgments about love, the influence of Bazarov is felt. Like his "teacher", the younger Kirsanov considers love "nonsense", "nonsense", "romanticism". However, real life quickly puts everything in its place. Acquaintance with Anna Sergeevna Odintsova makes Arkady feel like a "schoolboy", "student" next to her. "On the contrary, Arkady was at home with Katya ..." Young Kirsanov, in the words of Bazarov, was not created for a "tart bean life." The fate of Arkady is typical. Having married Katerina Sergeevna, he becomes a "zealous master". "Katerina Sergeevna's son Kolya was born, and Mitya is already running well and chatting loudly." Arkady's interests are closed in a close circle of family and economic concerns.

Thus, both in the life of the Kirsanov brothers and in the life of the nihilist Bazarov, love plays a tragic role. And yet the strength and depth of Bazarov's feelings do not disappear without a trace. At the end of the novel, Turgenev draws the grave of the hero and "two already decrepit, old men", Bazarov's parents, who come to her. But this is also love! "Is love, holy, devoted love, not all-powerful?"

This is the philosophical finale of the novel "Fathers and Sons". The main result of Bazarov's life lies in the fact that the hero managed, albeit for a short time, to awaken direct feelings in those who are cold by nature (Odintsova). Bazarov leaves love in the world, not hatred or nihilism. Therefore, the words of Turgenev "about eternal reconciliation and about life endless ..." are so appropriate in the finale of the novel.
