Biographies Characteristics Analysis

Steadfast tin soldier names of heroes. Awareness of the philosophical meaning of the fairy tale H.K.

The main characters of this tale of the famous Danish storyteller can be called:

  • Steadfast Tin Soldier
  • paper dancer
  • Troll from a snuffbox

Let's talk about each of them separately and try to understand how Hans Christian Andersen created them. And we will also answer the question - what can they teach us or what to warn against.

The Steadfast Tin Soldier

Soldier is the central character of this fairy tale, the hero around whom her entire plot is built. It is his adventures, thoughts and feelings that Andersen describes throughout the story. Its main definition is persistent, both in direct and in figuratively. He stands firmly on his one leg and bravely goes through all the hardships, getting into difficult situations.

This is definitely positive hero who can teach important qualities, like fortitude, the ability not to give up, even when it seems that there is no way out. And he knows how to truly love. He is selflessly in love with the one who seemed to him like him, and therefore, in something very close. She, like him, knew how to stand on one leg and at the same time looked just wonderful. No threats or obstacles could change the soldier's feelings for the little paper ballerina.

paper dancer

She does not utter a word throughout the story and does not even move. Therefore, her character is difficult to understand. But the main thing is that with her skill and beauty she attracted the attention of a soldier, gave rise to a real feeling in his soul - love at first sight.

Her feelings are revealed only at the very end, when she goes after the soldier into the inferno of the fireplace and dies with him. Everything in this fairy tale is not so obvious, perhaps it is only a draft. But, nevertheless, I want to believe that this is love, and each of us can decide in our own way. That is the story.

Troll from the snuffbox

He is envious, angry, and probably knows how to cast spells that make children do very strange things. For example, for no apparent reason to throw a beautiful toy into the fire.

It is possible that in this way the storyteller hinted at not always good behavior that each of us faces in our lives. Perhaps this is the machinations of an evil troll? If so, then everything can end very sadly. For example, since this sad tale ended. Therefore, it is important not to give him the opportunity to control himself.

We can say that this hero personifies all our worst thoughts, feelings and impulses. Maybe that's why everything in this tale is implicit and through "maybe" and "maybe". After all, we always want to think that all evil is not from ourselves, and in fact we are kind and good.

Much in common in themes, language, images. However, a folk tale is the result of collective creativity, and the author's tale is created by a certain writer.

Gennady Tsyferov in the book "My Andersen" writes: "Do you know, for example, how bells are poured? A drop of silver must be added to each bell. So it rings:"

If you add a drop of pure sadness to a funny fairy tale, it also rings. Every time after Andersen's fairy tale, we seem to hear a ringing, long and timid. Then you can even forget what it is about, but the timid ringing will always remain in your heart.

Teacher: Many literary tales originate from a folk tale.

Fizminutka.

III. So we go on a journey:

Let's continue with the story. And at the end of the lesson, we must answer the most important question:

What feelings does this story evoke in the reader?

Teacher's conclusion:

In the very first phrases of the tale, there are two main motifs of the work and Andersen's works in general.

The motive of bright joy associated with the expectation of a miracle. Read the passage on page 38 ((Part I)1).

The motive of sadness, sadness, from the understanding of the short duration, fragility of a miracle. p. 38(2). They lay, all twenty-five, in a cardboard box. It was dark and cramped inside.

IV. Analysis of the fairy tale (selective reading).

I part

Key question:

Why did the fate of the tin soldier turn out like this?

We can answer this question only in the course of the analysis of the tale.

What was interesting about the last soldier? (p. 38, 3)

(he is special, the most wonderful :)

What does it say about his inner qualities?

(Yes, he can see beauty. (p. 38, 4))

What brought the soldier and the dancer closer together?

(he saw his resemblance, kinship is still external with her (p. 39, 5))

What did he think?

(I wish I had such a wife: (p. 39.6))

What are his first words about?

Teacher: (The beauty of the dancer evokes in him a selfish desire, a selfish thought: "I wish I would:"

He forgets about everything: about his military duty, about his main purpose on earth, but with his mind he understands the unreality of the fulfillment of his desire).

Therefore, a new thought arises, what? (p. 39, 7)

("But get to know her:")

(To court for a game, for fun).

How do these thoughts and feelings characterize the soldier?

Do they reveal the main thing in it?

(after all, frivolity, playfulness does not correspond to the image of the hero that is created in the text of the fairy tale)

How do we see a soldier in a fairy tale?

(serious, in love)

Andersen wanted to show that good and evil are inherent in a person, such is human nature, and he himself makes a choice and is responsible for this choice.

II part

Tell us what the toys did at night? (p. 39, 1)

What does the nature and sequence of these games tell us?

What can we say about the children, the family, the atmosphere of this house?

(Toys play in the same way as children: first to visit, then to the war, and end with a ball).

(This speaks of the culture of a girl and a woman, about the respectful attitude of boys and girls, about friendship and harmony, love and poetry in this house.)

Where even the birds talk like? (p. 39, 2) (children)

What a miracle happened to the soldier and the dancer (p. 39, 3)

(A mysterious and unselfish love was born)

"Suddenly jumped out:"

What was interesting about the snuffbox? (p. 39, 5)

Who is a troll?

(Evil wizard, imp)

Where did he come from and why is he taking revenge on the soldier?

(The troll is the embodiment of inner evil, which is in every person, and in the soldier it manifested itself in the form of low feelings: envy, which we talked about earlier. And for this the troll takes revenge on him).

What happened in the morning? (p. 40, 6)

What happened to our hero? (Tests)

And how did the soldier pass the first test? (Worthy p. 40, 7)

Why didn't he scream and call for help? (p. 40, 8)

What other tests of willpower fell to the soldier? (III hours 40-42, 1,2,3)

Conclusion: Even in Hard time a person must constantly remember about self-esteem, about honor. Starting from the moment when the troll began to test the soldier, the hero realized his highest purpose and remains a warrior with a pure and selfless love until the very end of the story. In all trials, he does not betray himself in anything: he holds himself steadfastly, as a real soldier should, both during a dangerous voyage, in a paper boat, and when a large water rat swam after him, fiercely clicking his teeth, and when he began to sink, and in his stomach in a big fish. In the silent steadfastness of the tin soldier, in his behavior, a truly Christian attitude to the world is revealed: he has no hatred for the ugly troll from the snuffbox, he does not curse the "street boys", he accepts his fate with humility and steadfastly endures all trials, before threatening death, remembering only his honor and "sweet dancer".

What miracles happened? Why? (p. 42, 1)

(Deserved award for perseverance).

Conclusion: This is wonderful moment"and there is happiness. Such happiness is not given in vain, it does not come by itself. It must be earned, suffered, gone through temptation, overcome evil and worthily endure the test.

Read what the soldier felt when he was in the stove. (p. 42, 2)

What is left of the dancer and the soldier? (p. 43, 3)

V. Summary.

Does the fairy tale have a happy ending?

(Yes and no)

So, we again approached the most important issue, the problem of a fairy tale.

This story has a double meaning:

Stamina - the ability to stand confidently on one leg. And the second - stamina - is the strength of the spirit. The incidents in the fairy tale are childish, but the feelings are real, worthy of respect. And the reader, together with the tin soldier, overcomes weakness in himself. The soul is cleansed, it becomes stronger in spirit.

Did you hear the "ringing of sadness" in this tale?

What is the fairy tale "The Steadfast Tin Soldier" about?

So, we have come to the end of our extraordinary journey through the fairy tale. But this is not the last journey with the great storyteller, it will continue forever, all his life. Andersen is a true friend and good adviser for all children, and therefore for all people. In Andersen's fairy tales, tears and laughter, grief and joy live side by side - everything is like in real life.

And this extraordinary man knew life very well. And it is no coincidence that a monument was erected to the great storyteller "King of Fairy Tales" in the capital of Denmark, Copenhagen. And also a monument to one of the heroes of fairy tales - the Little Mermaid. The little mermaid has become a symbol of the Danish capital and has been sitting on the seashore and looking into the distance for many years.

VI. Homework. Draw a sketch of a monument to your favorite Andersen fairy tale characters and explain your choice.

Once upon a time there were twenty-five tin soldiers, who were cast from one large tin spoon, and therefore they all looked like brothers, with guns on their shoulders and in identical red and blue uniforms. All but the last one, the twenty-fifth... There wasn't enough tin for him, and so he only had one leg. But on this one leg he stood as firmly as the rest on two.

The steadfast Tin Soldier loved the little Dancer, who stood on one leg in front of her toy castle - and, if you looked from the box in which the soldiers lived, it seemed that she, too, had only one leg. The soldier thought that she would make an ideal wife for him.

But the Troll, living in a snuffbox, old and wise, was jealous of the beauty for the little Tin Soldier and prophesied a terrible misfortune for him.

But the Tin Soldier was steadfast and paid no attention to him.
And now, through the fault of the evil Troll, or by itself, this is what happened. The next morning, when Soldier was standing on the windowsill, a gust of wind suddenly blew him away, and he flew down, right onto the pavement, where he got stuck between two cobblestones.

The little boy, the owner of the toys, and the maid went out into the street and searched for a soldier for a long time. But, although they almost stepped on him, they still did not see ... Soon it began to rain, and they had to return to the house. And the Tin Soldier lay on the pavement and was sad. After all, he did not know if he would ever see his beautiful Dancer again ...

When the rain stopped, two boys appeared on the street.
- Look, tin soldier! - said one. - Let's send him to the sea!
And so they made a boat out of the newspaper, put the Soldier in it and let it swim into the gutter.

God save me! thought the Tin Soldier. - What terrible waves, and the current is so strong!
But, despite the fear, he stood still just as straight and steadfast.
And the boat floated and floated along the gutter and suddenly slipped into the sewer pipe. There was darkness even to gouge out the eye, and the poor little Soldier saw absolutely nothing.
"Where am I going?" he thought. "This evil Troll is to blame for everything. Oh, if only my little Dancer was with me, I would become ten times braver!"

And the boat sailed on and on, and now a light dawned ahead. The water from the pipe, it turns out, flowed directly into the river. And the boat spun like a top, and with it the Tin Soldier. And then the paper boat scooped up the side of the water, got wet and began to sink.
When the water closed over his head, the Soldier thought of a little dancer... Then the paper got completely wet. But suddenly the Soldier was swallowed by a big fish.

In the stomach of the fish it was even darker than in the sewer pipe, but the courage did not leave Soldier. And then the fish began to thrash and twitch.

But then the fish calmed down, then a bright light flashed and someone's voice exclaimed: - Look, it's a soldier!

It turns out that the fish was caught, taken to the market, and there it was bought by a cook from the very house where all the adventures of our Soldier began. He was carried back to the nursery, where the little Dancer was already waiting for him.

2. Communication of brief biographical fragments from the life of Andersen

(Slide 10)Teacher: Andersen was born on April 2 in the Danish city of Odense, located on the island of Funen, in the family of a shoemaker.

(Slide 11)Teacher: Andersen's family lived in poverty. Parents worked tirelessly, earning a penny. Consider the house where the writer spent his childhood. What confirms my words?

Children: The house is one-story. There are small windows and there are few of them. No decorations. This is the home of the poor.

(Slide 12)Teacher: Little Hans learned the tales of his people early on and began to invent his own tales and poems as a child. He dreamed of becoming an actor, played home performances with homemade dolls. If the kid in the picture was little Hans Christian, what would he think while blowing soap bubbles?

Children: He must have thought up a fairy tale about a soap bubble. Or fantasized where the bubble would fly.

(Slide 13)Teacher: When Andersen was 14 years old, he decided to go to Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark. The name of this city is translated as "trading harbor". Look at the pictures of the city and say why?

Children: The city is a seaport, with canals. A lot of people and merchants sail there.

(Slide 14)Teacher: Hans was always eager to learn. But due to poverty, he began to study at the gymnasium when he was 18 years old. Despite poverty, Andersen graduated not only from the gymnasium, but also from the university. Think about what it was like for a future writer in a children's gymnasium?

Children: Uncomfortable because of the ridicule of classmates.

(Slide 15)Teacher: He gained worldwide fame as a storyteller after the publication of the first collection of fairy tales. In Russia, interest in the work of the storyteller arose during his lifetime, when some fairy tales were translated into Russian. Andersen wrote to the translator: "I am glad that my works are read in great Russia."

(Slide 16)Teacher: Why do you think Children's Book Day is associated with Andersen's birthday?

Children: Andersen's fairy tales are very popular with children. They are understandable and loved.

Teacher: Many children's writers have been awarded the International Prize. In 1974, S. Mikhalkov was awarded the Certificate of Honor, and in 1976 honorary diploma received A. Barto.

3. vocabulary work

(Slide 17)Teacher: Today we will read a fairy tale about a steadfast tin soldier. Before reading, let's look at the meaning of some words that you will meet in the text.

4. Reading a fairy tale. Interview after reading.

Teacher: Has your mood changed since reading the story? Did you like the fairy tale? What are the most bright episodes will you mark?

(Slide 18)Teacher: What different (even opposite) feelings does this tale evoke in you?

Children: We are sad, sad, because the soldier and the dancer are dying. And at the same time, we are interested, entertaining, joyful from fairy-tale miracles, from the bright love of a soldier and a dancer.

Teacher: Consider these two illustrations and determine which one we associate a sad feeling with, and which one is joyful?

Children: The first illustration leaves a fabulously interesting impression. It depicts toys, the love of the main characters. The second illustration is very sad, we feel sorry for the soldier.

Teacher: In Russian folk tales always a happy ending, love conquers evil. Why does Andersen's fairy tale have a sad end? Why do heroes die? We will try to answer these questions when we careful reading fairy tales.

5. Analytical reading of a fairy tale

(Slide 19)Teacher: In the first part of the tale, we get acquainted with its heroes. What question do we want to ask toys: who or what?

Children: Who. They act like they are alive. They think, they talk.

Teacher: What feelings did the new toys evoke in the boy?

Children: Joy.

Teacher: Find words in the text that support this feeling.

Children:“Ah, tin soldiers!”, “shouted, clapping his hands”, “he immediately began to arrange them.”

Teacher: How did the steadfast tin soldier differ from his "brothers" soldiers? How does the boy and Anderson feel about him? Find the words of the fairy tale that support your answers.

Children: The soldier did not have a leg (there was not enough tin at its ebb). The boy was playing with a soldier, he did not throw away the damaged toy. The boy liked the soldier: "but he stood on his one leg just as firmly ...". Andersen also likes the soldier, "and he just turned out to be the most wonderful of all."

Teacher: Why did the soldier pay attention to the dancer?

Children: She was beautiful. They had something in common: "..decided that the beauty is also one-legged, like him."

Teacher: Reread the soldier's monologue in the first part. How do these words characterize the soldier?

Children: He admires the beauty, wants to make her his wife. But she is worried that she will be uncomfortable with him.

Teacher: Why did Andersen write “But it still doesn’t interfere with getting to know each other,” and not “I’ll go and get acquainted.”

Children: Probably the soldier feels unworthy of the beauty, he is afraid to get to know her right away. That "she, apparently, from the noble," and he could not achieve her as an ordinary soldier. He "hidden" and only watches the young lady.

Teacher: Which of the heroes of Andersen's other fairy tales felt the same "unworthy", unlike the others?

Children: ugly duckling, inch among bugs, little mermaid among people.

Teacher: Hans Christian Anderson came from the poor. In his life there were many sorrows associated with his origin. His "peasant blood" was mocked, not accepted. But Andersen also had friends who appreciated his talent.

Teacher: How did the beauty treat the soldier? Reread the beginning of the second part and find the answer to this question.

Children: While all the toys were playing, making noise, somersaulting, making “noise and uproar”, the dancer “did not budge”. She was unanimous with the soldier, because he, like her, did not participate in the general "noise", he "did not take his eyes off her." Maybe it was love? And the young lady noticed the poor soldier?

Children: Or maybe she wasn't going to notice him. Maybe she was proud and considered it below her dignity to pay attention to all sorts of soldiers.

Children: She was probably just modest, her upbringing did not allow her to meet first.

Teacher: Let's have a little rest now and stand up and play theater artists. Let's try to portray a soldier, as he stands on the clock with a gun. Dancer. Toy games (children, standing near their desks, depict "living figures").

Teacher: What toy do you dislike? Why didn't you like him? Find the answer in the text.

Children: Black troll from a snuffbox. He threatens the soldier. “What are you looking for, where you don’t need to.”

Teacher: Why does the troll think that the soldier does not need to look at the beauty?

Children: Probably the troll considers himself a "cool" toy and a dancer too, and there is no need for ordinary soldiers to look at her.

Teacher: Imagine a snuffbox. What did it look like before the lid was opened?

Children: The snuffbox must have been beautiful, because it is a small box for something. They were beautifully decorated.

Teacher: And out of this "beauty" an evil troll suddenly jumps out. Think about it, if this beautiful snuffbox is compared with handsome man What can jump out of a person?

Children: Evil thoughts. Evil, ugly deeds.

Teacher: Such people often met in the life of Hans Christian Andersen. The educated, cultured figures of Danish literature often made it clear that Andersen should know his place (the place of a tramp and peasant) among gentlemen professors and academics. “Everything good in me was trampled into the dirt,” Andersen said about himself. And the soldier is in the mud. When? Why?

Children: He fell out of the window onto the dirty pavement. Was it dropped by a troll? evil people), or a draft (fate).

(Slide 20)Teacher: What tests does the soldier go through?

Children: Stand upside down, sail on a fragile boat, the darkness of the scaffolding, an evil rat, a huge canal, the stomach of a fish.

Teacher: How did the soldier go through these tests? Support with words from the text.

Children: He was worried, afraid, but still steadfastly endured all the trials. “I considered it indecent to shout in the street”, “I was trembling all over, but I held on steadfastly”, “I was silent and clutched my gun even tighter”, “I kept my head as before and did not even blink an eye”, “fear how crowded”.

Teacher: How does Andersen feel about the soldier? Confirm.

Children: Worries about him. Calls him "poor guy".

Teacher: What or who helps the soldier to cope with these trials?

Children: He always remembers the Dancer in a moment of danger. “Ah, if that beauty were sitting with me in the boat - for me, be at least twice as dark!”. “Here he thought of his beauty…”.

Teacher: Previously, warrior knights had their own ladies of the heart. Thoughts about her, love for her warmed them in battles.

Teacher: During these tests, did the soldier hurt anyone, did he harm anyone. After all, for sure his gun ended in a sharp tin bayonet, and he could scratch the hands of the boys, damage the stomach of the fish.

Children: No. The story says nothing about it. The soldier is afraid, suffers, but does not harm anyone. He patiently endures.

Teacher: So Andersen had to suffer and endure, steadfastly endure all the humiliations in life. At the same time, do not lose the kindness and tender attitude towards ordinary people.

(Slide 21) But the tests of the soldier came to an end. And a miracle happened - as a reward for perseverance - he ended up in the room of the same boy and saw the beauty again! What did the soldier and the author want to say with him with the words “That's so steadfastness!”?

Children: The soldier admires the stubbornness of the ballerina, because she has been standing on one leg all this time. And Andersen, as it were, admires the soldier with these words, admires his strong character.

Teacher: What words from the fourth part speak of the power of love between our heroes?

Children:“I was touched and almost cried”, “He looked at her, she looked at him, but they did not say a word.”

Teacher: Yes. Lovers often do not need words. They can communicate with their eyes. They understand each other, they are “on the same wavelength” of feelings. What words of the fairy tale abruptly “tear off” the reader from contemplating the bright love of the characters?

Children:"Suddenly one of the boys..." The boy acts badly, throws the soldier into the fire.

Teacher: How do you explain the words “Probably the troll set it all up!”.

Children: This boy must have been a friend, an acquaintance of our little boy master. He must be a calm decent boy. Otherwise, he would not have been invited to visit our boy. But an evil troll “sat” in it too: maybe it’s envy that he doesn’t have such a toy.

Teacher: The soldier is on fire. What does he feel?

Children: He's feeling hot. But even here he loves: "It's terribly hot, from fire or from love - he himself did not know."

Teacher: What is the young lady?

Children: The wind picked her up and she fell into the fire to the soldier.

(Slide 22)Teacher: Heroes burn together. Do you think love won or lost?

Children: Won. AT real life they shouldn't be together. A troll would interfere with them, do other dirty tricks. And now the soldier and the dancer will be remembered as the most unusual toys, their unusual fate.

6. Synthesis

Teacher: At the beginning of the lesson, we identified two moods of the fairy tale: light and sad. Andersen teaches us that life is different, sad and cheerful. What do people and heroes of fairy tales have and positive features and negative.

(Slide 23) I invite the class to divide into four groups. Each group will be given an illustration from the story to look at. You will have to consult and answer a few questions: Which character is depicted in the illustration? List its positive and negative features.

(Illustration 1) Children: This is a boy who was given soldiers. He loves his toys, does not break them. He searched for a fallen soldier for a long time.

Children: In the fairy tale there is another boy - the guest of the first. Envy for the unusual soldier awakened in him.

(Illustration 2) Children: This is a black troll. He envies the soldier. Points out to him, threatens. Separates the soldier from the beauty.

Children: Before that, the troll was hiding in a beautiful snuffbox, which everyone admired. Not expecting "secret, focus". This snuffbox helped the soldier to hide and he was not put in a box along with other soldiers.

(Illustration 3) Children: This is a lovely dancer. She won the heart of the tin soldier with her beauty. She flew into the fire after the soldier.

Children: Very unavailable. Not a single movement made it clear to the soldier that she saw signs of his attention.

(Illustration 4) Children: This is a tin soldier. He loves a beautiful dancer. Steadfastly withstands all the tests that have fallen to his lot.

Children: He is a little unsure of himself, he does not dare to get acquainted with the young lady. Despite the stamina of character, he experiences fear during his forced journey.

7. Summary of the lesson

(Slide 24)Teacher: Now we will try to answer the questions that were asked at the beginning of the lesson. Why does Andersen's fairy tale have a sad end? Why do heroes die?

Children: They were envious. Others did not like them, because they were not like everyone else. In other toys, people "woke up" low feelings, looking at the pure, bright love of the main characters.

Teacher: Yes, guys, in the world around us, the ratio of evil and good, light and darkness, joy and pain depends on each person, it also depends on you, what choice you make. I wish you that your kind, bright half will overcome all dark and evil thoughts and deeds.

(Slide 25)Teacher: Your homework will be related to another illustration that I suggest you consider. Of course, you recognized the character of the fairy tale in this illustration. Your task is to reread the story and tell what you have learned about this character. Why did Andersen choose her, how does she behave, do you like her?

The hero of H. K. Andersen's fairy tale "The Steadfast Tin Soldier" (1838), a symbol of unbending courage and perseverance. His fate is described briefly, but it is full of events, although implausible, but convincing in this. magical world where people, animals and toys coexist in a complex unity. He is one of twenty-five toy soldiers, "siblings on the mother - the old pewter spoon" who were given for his birthday little boy. From his brothers Steadfast Tin Soldier

He was distinguished by the fact that he was one-legged (there was not enough tin), but he stood on his one leg securely and firmly.

There were many wonderful things in the toy world of the nursery, where the soldiers fell, but most of all the hero was attracted by the paper Dancer, who also stood on one leg - she raised the other so high that the soldier did not see her and decided that she and the Dancer were comrades in misfortune. Of course, he could only dream that such a beauty would seriously pay attention to him. But it so happened that the fate of S.O.S. turned out to be remarkably amazing. He is a nature, in a soldierly and, so to speak, in a Tin simple way, but not in a toy orderly and delicate - he lived a short and amazing life. Separate details of his collision with the outside world, where he fell out of the window, are phantasmagoric: what is, for example, a rat demanding a passport from a soldier sailing on a boat made of newsprint.

Having successfully passed the collision with the rat, he completely found himself in the power of the water element (from the stream he fell into the river) and even, like the biblical Jonah, ended up in the womb, however, not of a whale, but of an unknown fish, from which he was again expelled into his old nursery, to the same children and toys. But his fate, despite its remarkableness, did not work out from the very beginning, from that very missing leg. This story ended badly. One of the boys threw it into the fireplace, and it turned into a small piece of tin. Melted to the very heart. And yet the story ended well - the wind that burst into the room threw the little paper Dancer into the stove. So they died together.
