Read an essay on the Russian language and speech culture: “My opinion about Bazarov.” My opinion about Bazarov My opinion about Bazarov

If we talk about my personal perception of the main character of I. S. Turgenev’s novel “Fathers and Sons,” then I must admit that he is my opposite. His character seemed to contain much of what a person can be respected for: intelligence, originality, physical strength, self-confidence, enormous capacity for work. This nihilist beats the aristocrat Pavel Petrovich Kirsanov in a dispute, knows how to force others to listen to himself and respect his point of view. What's the matter, why is he so unpleasant to me? And only then did I clearly understand what repels me in this Turgenev hero: selfishness and pride, lack of pity and kindness towards others.
Evgeny Bazarov is not like others I know literary heroes created writers of the XIX century. I cannot place Onegin and Pechorin next to him. Perhaps only Chernyshevsky’s heroes Lopukhov and Kirsanov partly resemble nihilists, but even they and the “gloomy monster” Rakhmetov seem to me more humane. Bazarov is also not like other Turgenev characters. The writer himself admits this fact. The hero of “Fathers and Sons” cannot be compared with Rudin and Insarov. Personality

Bazarova withdraws into herself, because outside of her and around her there are no like-minded people. He is unable to maintain a relationship with the woman he loves; his sincere and integral nature does not give in to compromise and does not make concessions; he does not buy a woman's affection with known obligations. But smart women are usually careful and prudent... In a word, for Bazarov there are no women who can evoke a serious feeling in him and, for their part, respond ardently to it. “A man must be fierce,” Bazarov cites a Spanish proverb - and he’s all about it. Turgenev repeatedly emphasizes his uncontrollable, rough, harsh nature. Even love, passion beats “strong and heavy” in him, similar to malice, and perhaps akin to malice. It is not for nothing that he inspires fear and respect in Odintsova.
Was Evgeny Bazarov born with such a strong nature, inclined to command people, keep them in moral subordination, accept their services, as if doing them a favor, or was it due to the fact that he - “self-made” - achieved everything himself? But, be that as it may, this is the son of a military doctor - a very strong and outstanding personality in all respects. Bazarov recognizes only what can be felt with his hands, seen with his eyes, put on his tongue, in a word, only what can be witnessed by one of the five senses. He reduces all other human feelings to the activity of the nervous system; As a result, the enjoyment of the beauties of nature, music, painting, poetry, the love of a woman does not seem at all higher to him than the enjoyment of a hearty dinner or a bottle of good wine. Bazarov thoroughly knows the natural sciences, with their help he knocked “prejudices” out of his head, but at the same time he remained an extremely uneducated person: he heard something about poetry, something about art, did not bother to think and shoulder-to-shoulder pronounced a verdict on strangers subjects.
Turgenev shows that Bazarov is a democrat, a commoner, a man of labor, alien to aristocratic etiquette and conventions. What is his strength? The fact is that he is a representative of the new time. Aristocrats, like Pavel Petrovich, have outlived their usefulness. New people and new ideas were needed. Evgeny Bazarov throughout the novel shows us this new idea.
The main place in the novel is occupied by scenes of disputes. Turgenev's heroes reveal their worldview in direct statements, in clashes with their ideological opponents. Bazarov is an independent nature, not bowing to any authority, but subjecting all thoughts to judgment. What is Bazarov's weakness? In my opinion, his main weakness is that he only denies, he does not bring anything positive. How can people live in denial alone? Today, too, you can meet people who perfectly criticize the old, perfectly prove that a lot needs to be changed, but cannot offer anything worthwhile, much less do. And Evgeny Bazarov appropriated to himself the “title” of a nihilist and denies everything: religion, science, family, morality. It becomes especially creepy when you think about the fact that he denies such things as art and love. Of course, life is richer than his ideas, and the “theorist” himself falls in love “stupidly, madly.”
Maybe some people like such heroes. But for me, a gardener cultivating his small garden, or an illiterate old woman looking after children, are much more “heroes” than Bazarov. After all, they create to the best of their ability, but he only destroys. How can you break it without even knowing why? Pavel Petrovich cannot understand this. And Bazarov’s “student” Arkady answers him: “We break because we are strong.” And force, in his opinion, does not give an account. It is this kind of blind “force” that seems very dangerous to me, which is why my attitude towards the main character of Turgenev’s novel is dangerously negative.

Bazarov is a unique hero in Russian literature. No one created such an unusual, bright and controversial image either before or after Turgenev. Onegin, Pechorin, Chatsky - all these are heroes of the same scale. But still Bazarov is significantly different from them. The difference is that he is the only one who is so torn apart from within by contradictions. And all the listed heroes, although they suffer and are not always at peace with themselves, still have some kind of inner harmony in them. In Bazarov, there is rather disharmony. He denies love, but it is love that breaks him strong man. He hates “romanticism” and even falls under its influence. He treats his parents condescendingly and coldly, although in his soul he is attached to them, perhaps even stronger than Arkady to Nicholas Petrovich. He shows indifference towards literally every object and phenomenon, and when he has to die, he cherishes the world he is leaving. Therefore, the strongest feeling that Bazarov evokes is compassion. This feeling does not come immediately, but only after reading the book.

At first, in the first chapters, the hero did not evoke any emotions in me other than irritation. When we first meet him, there is a feeling that there is nothing human about him; no weaknesses, but no strengths either. He acts like a soulless machine, not succumbing to emotions. It is impossible to piss him off, make him angry, or irritate him. Of course, it may be objected that composure is an excellent quality in a person. But the fact of the matter is that Bazarov does not give the impression of a person. In his quarrels with Pavel Petrovich, Uncle Arkady looks much nicer, if only because he is alive and has his own personal point vision. What is Bazarov’s point of view? He takes any statement and simply denies it. He doesn't try to appreciate art. Since he doesn’t beg to understand him, then it’s nothing. He has never experienced love, so he has the courage to claim that it does not exist at all. And Pavel Petrovich knows that it exists, he went through this test. He has the right to talk about feelings. Therefore, it’s even a little funny to look at Bazarov and listen to his reasoning. He simply cannot understand music, poetry, or love. He tries to explain any of these phenomena from a mundane, even physiological point of view. And that's funny too.

However, despite this, Bazarov is very clever man. He prevails over uncle Kirsanov in disputes thanks to his calmness and prudence. But still, in the chapters that are devoted to being in the Kirsanov family, I have little sympathy for Bazarov. Let's say, why does he treat Arkady so condescendingly, even slightly contemptuously? He takes advantage of his hospitality and calls him his friend. Perhaps Arkady is blinded, suppressed by Bazarov's authority, but he is not stupid at all. Moreover, when it comes to some everyday things, he is much more reasonable than his older comrade. And in the end she turns out to be much happier than him. Bazarov reacted with irony to the news of Arkady's marriage. But who knows if there might not have been some degree of envy mixed in with this?

- a topic worthy of a separate conversation; in relation to them, he sometimes behaves extremely ugly. For example, in the case when he kissed Fenechka. At the same time, he knows very well about her relationship with Nikolai Petrovich. He is trying to put a barrier between himself and his parents, but why? After all, better than anyone else, he knows that the meaning of their existence is concentrated in him. Finally, his cynical remarks about Odintsova are very unpleasant. But here he can find an excuse: with his cynicism he seeks to disguise the feeling that is born in his soul. Love for Odintsova, in my eyes, is a complete justification for Bazarov. This feeling for him is a punishment, a lesson, and redemption at the same time.

Loving a woman like Odintsova is a difficult test in itself. But when a person denies in principle the existence of such a feeling, then for him love becomes an unbearable test. Bazarov breaks down. Hearing a refusal from the lips of the woman he loves, he literally becomes a different person. He tries to forget himself: he works feverishly, then falls into apathy. And here the reader’s irritation from his unsubstantiated statements, arrogance, and selfishness develops into a completely different feeling - a feeling of compassion, empathy. There can be nothing more terrible for a strong man than to be defeated. And Bazarov is also defeated by something whose existence he completely denied.

He finally understands himself that he is a completely ordinary person. And, like any person, he can fall under the influence of “romanticism” that he so hates. Of course, at the end of the novel, Bazarov cannot be called pathetic. But the collapse of his hopes and beliefs crippled him. He seemed to become smaller. Misfortunes dry out a person.

Bazarov is a hero who commands respect. His willpower, his intelligence, character, determination are very attractive features. When it turns out that he is subject to human feelings and is able to admit his mistakes, he is even able to enter into a fight with what is stronger than him - all this raises him in the eyes of the reader. At least in my eyes, this makes him a more than worthy person. The irritation and rejection that the hero caused at the beginning of the novel are somehow smoothed out, gradually erased and transformed into a mixed feeling of respect and sympathy.


My opinion about Bazarov.

If we talk about my personal perception of the main character of I. S. Turgenev’s novel “Fathers and Sons”,
then I must admit that he is my opposite.
His character seemed to contain much of what a person can be respected for: intelligence, originality, physical strength, self-confidence, enormous capacity for work.
This nihilist beats the aristocrat Pavel Petrovich Kirsanov in a dispute, knows how to force others to listen to himself and respect his point of view.
What's the matter, why is he so unpleasant to me?
And only then did I clearly understand what repels me in this Turgenev hero: selfishness and pride, lack of pity and kindness towards others.
Evgeny Bazarov is not like other literary heroes I know created by writers of the 19th century.
I cannot place Onegin and Pechorin next to him.
Perhaps only Chernyshevsky’s heroes Lopukhov and Kirsanov partly resemble nihilists, but even they and the “gloomy monster” Rakhmetov seem to me more humane.
Bazarov is also not like other Turgenev characters.
The writer himself admits this fact. The hero of “Fathers and Sons” cannot be compared with Rudin and Insarov.
Bazarov's personality closes in on itself, because outside of it and around it there are no like-minded people. He is unable to maintain a relationship with the woman he loves; his sincere and integral nature does not give in to compromise and does not make concessions; he does not buy a woman's affection with known obligations.

Turgenev repeatedly emphasizes his uncontrollable, rough, harsh nature. Even love, passion, beats “strong and heavy” in him, similar to malice, and perhaps akin to malice. It is not for nothing that he inspires fear and respect in Odintsova.
Was Evgeny Bazarov born with such a strong nature, inclined to command people, keep them in moral subordination, accept their services as if doing them a favor, or was it due to the fact that he - “self-made” - achieved everything himself? But, be that as it may, this is the son of a military doctor - a very strong and outstanding personality in all respects.
Bazarov recognizes only what can be felt with his hands, seen with his eyes, put on his tongue, in a word, only what can be witnessed by one of the five senses. He reduces all other human feelings to the activity of the nervous system; As a result, the enjoyment of the beauties of nature, music, painting, poetry, the love of a woman does not seem at all higher to him than the enjoyment of a hearty dinner or a bottle of good wine.

Aristocrats, like Pavel Petrovich, have outlived their usefulness. New people and new ideas were needed.
Evgeny Bazarov shows us this new idea throughout the entire novel.
The main place in the novel is occupied by scenes of disputes.
Turgenev's heroes reveal their worldview in direct statements, in clashes with their ideological opponents.
Bazarov is an independent nature, not bowing to any authority, but subjecting all thoughts to judgment.
What is Bazarov's weakness?
In my opinion, his main weakness is that he only denies, he does not bring anything positive. How can people live in denial alone?
Today, too, you can meet people who perfectly criticize the old, perfectly prove that a lot needs to be changed, but cannot offer anything worthwhile, much less do. And Evgeny Bazarov appropriated to himself the “title” of a nihilist and denies everything: religion, science, family, morality.
It becomes especially creepy when you think about the fact that he denies such things as art and love.
Of course, life is richer than his ideas, and the “theorist” himself falls in love “stupidly, madly.”
Maybe some people like such heroes. But for me, a gardener cultivating his small garden, or an illiterate old woman looking after children, are much more “heroes” than Bazarov.
After all, they create to the best of their ability, but he only destroys. How can you break it without even knowing why?
Pavel Petrovich cannot understand this. And Bazarov’s “student” Arkady answers him: “We break because we are strong.”
And force, in his opinion, does not give an account.
It’s this kind of blind “force” that seems very dangerous to me,
Therefore, my attitude towards the main character of Turgenev’s novel is cautiously negative.
