Creative works on literature. OGE assignments based on A.S. Pushkin’s novel “Eugene Onegin” material for preparing for the Unified State Exam (GIA) in literature (grade 9) on the topic As in the given fragment

How does Dead Souls reveal the problem of the relationship between the artist and the crowd?

At the beginning of the 7th chapter of the poem “ Dead souls» N.V. Gogol reflects on the relationship between the artist and the crowd.

The author compares two types of writers. One of them is a sublime romantic who passes by “boring, disgusting characters, striking with their sad reality” and never changes “the sublime structure of his lyre.” Such an artist is favored by the reading public, he has the great fame of “world poet”. But such is not the fate of the realist writer, the satirist, who dared to “call out” “all the terrible, stunning mud of little things that entangle our lives, all the depth of cold, fragmented, everyday characters.” This artist will not receive worldwide recognition, the public will not appreciate his creations, and will consider them “insignificant and low.” With bitter feeling the author reflects on the tragic fate of the realist satirist and his spiritual loneliness.

Of course, in this lyrical digression Gogol writes about himself. All these principles of displaying reality are reflected in the poem “Dead Souls”, in which the writer deeply explores the characters and elements Russian life. Author's position Gogol is quite definite: emphasizing the typicality of the images created, he deeply and subtly explores the environment that gave birth to them. The writer gives us all the details of the characters’ lives, meticulously describes rooms, things, and everyday details. So, for example, he draws in detail a portrait of Manilov, his estate, landscape, lunch, and gives us details of his way of life. All this helps him to reveal inner world hero, to most fully describe the character, to reproduce the type of an idle dreamer, an indefinite, inert person. And this is how the author explores almost each of the characters.

To a certain extent, these descriptions are predetermined genre originality works (Gogol called “Dead Souls” a poem, and the epic style was noted by many researchers). But the principles of realism that the author follows also play an important role. We can consider the poem “Dead Souls” to be a realistic work, since the writer follows the principle of historicism in it (the subject of research is modern life), typical characters are given in typical circumstances, and certain means of satirical typification are also used (referring to the hero’s past, author’s characteristics, hyperbole etc.). Hyperbole and grotesque are the most important elements of N.V.’s style. Gogol, often creating the effect of “twisted” reality. That is why some researchers call his style “fantastic realism.” However, the romantic current is also very noticeable in the poem “Dead Souls”. It makes its way through the author’s lyrical digressions and his thoughts about the future of Russia.

Tatyana is a sincere and noble girl. She believes that Evgeny is not capable of real feelings, since, unlike her, he has different concepts about the meaning of life. The heroine understands that he is amazed not by her mind and heart, but by her ability to play the role of a brilliant aristocrat. Thus, Tatyana is sure that Onegin’s thoughts are still captive of his usual ideas about life.

  1. What personality traits of Tatyana are manifested in her response to Onegin?

Tatyana is a sincere and noble person. She still loves Onegin. But despite this, she shows loyalty and devotion to her husband, while maintaining her dignity. So in the scene last date her truthfulness and nobility, respect are revealed even deeper.

1.1.3 Compare fragments of novels by A.S. Pushkin "Eugene Onegin"
and "Dubrovsky". What brings the main characters of both works together?

Both fragments are devoted to the theme of true love. Marya Kirilovna, like Tatyana, marries an unloved man. Both heroines love others, but remain faithful to their husbands. Tatyana, knowing about Onegin’s love for her, does not betray the general, and Masha also remains with Prince Vereisky. Thus, girls are brought together by a sense of decency, truthfulness and nobility.

  1. What has changed in Tatyana compared to her “previous”?

Tatyana is A.S. Pushkin’s favorite character in the novel. At first we see her as a dreamy young lady who was raised on French novels. Marriage changed the heroine. From an inexperienced, indecisive girl, she turns into a strong person who has self-esteem. Thus, the heroine becomes decisive. Thisno longer locked in her limited world is a teenage girl in front of us strong personality, capable of analysis and generalizations.

1.1.2By what means is Onegin’s state conveyed at this meeting?

The meeting with Tatyana in St. Petersburg came as a surprise to Onegin. The hero openly admires her when he sees a society lady in front of him. He is surprised and amazed that she is cold towards him. Rhetorical questions help convey Eugene’s excited state (“Where everything is outside, everything is free, That girl... or is it a dream?..), antonyms “wanted to have one” - “couldn’t”, lexical repetition of the word “so”. Thus, the listed means of expressiveness help the author to show state of mind the main character at the moment

meeting with Tatyana.

1.1.3 Compare the fragment in question from the novel by A.S. Pushkin “Eugene Onegin” with a fragment of the story by A.P. Chekhov's "Ionych". How do the situations and behavior of the characters described in these fragments differ?

Both heroes in the above fragments are depicted at the moment of their meeting. After separation, Onegin sees Tatyana, and Ionych meets with Kotik again. However, the situations are different. If Onegin rejected Tatyana’s love, then Ionych was denied love by Ekaterina Ivanovna. And therefore the behavior of the heroes is different. Evgeny is surprised by the changes that have occurred with Tatyana: But Ionych is not. Looking at the girl, he experiences a feeling of awkwardness when meeting her. Thus, the heroes find themselves in dissimilar situations and experience different states of mind.

  1. Why, despite remorse, does Onegin not give up the duel?

Evgeniy has a contradictory character. On the one hand, he doesn't respect landed nobility among whom he lives. On the other hand, he is afraid of being slandered by these people. At the moment, it is important to him what the famous duelist Zaretsky will say about him. Thus, despising society, Onegin lives by its laws, which is why he does not refuse a duel.This is how Pushkin reveals the duality of the character of his main character, his instability and unprincipledness.

  1. How is the author’s attitude to what is happening manifested in this episode?

The duel scene in the novel occupies a special place. It helps to understand the characters’ characters and the author’s attitude to what is happening. For example, the author is ambivalent about Lensky. He mocks him and sympathizes with him at the same time. A.S. Pushkin emphasizes the absurdity of the actions of the young poet, who fell for Onegin’s provocation and misinterpreted Olga’s behavior. He feels sorry for Lensky, who died so absurdly. The author’s attitude towards Onegin is also contradictory. He not only resolutely condemns him for the death of Lensky, but also expresses sympathy for him. Thus, the death of Lensky is A.S. Pushkin’s symbolic farewell to the past and this is Onegin’s chance for rebirth.

1.1.3 Compare the fragment in question from the novel by A.S. Pushkin “Eugene Onegin” with a fragment of the novel by M.Yu. Lermontov "Hero of Our Time". How does the behavior of the main characters differ in a similar situation?

1.1.1How can you characterize the quality of education of Evgeniy Onegin?

Eugene Onegin received a home education typical of aristocratic youth of his time and upbringing under the guidance of a French tutor, which was not deep. He“picked up the ropes” from Latin, history, and literature. Among the ignoramuses of secular society, this seemed like deep knowledge, which turned out to be enough to earn him the reputation of a “learned fellow,” although the author speaks about such knowledge with some irony. But Pushkin notes Onegin’s passion for economics, which indicates the progressive views of the hero. Thus, we can conclude that Onegin’s education is very superficial.

1.1.2Why was Onegin successful in secular society?

From the very beginning of the novel, Onegin appears before us as a secular man who is successful in society.He leads the lifestyle of the “golden youth”: balls, walks along Nevsky Prospect, visiting theaters. Herofeels great in “high” society, as he has absorbed secular morality with its hypocrisy, cynicism, and falsehood. Thus, in the eyes of society, he looks like a brilliant aristocrat, which is why he enjoys his favor.

1.1.3 Compare a fragment of the novel by A.S. Pushkin “Eugene Onegin” with the fragment of the poem by N.V. given below. Gogol "Dead Souls". How
Do both fragments reveal the theme of education?

We all learned a little bit

Something and somehow...

echo Gogol’s “Many were not without education... Others were also, more or less, enlightened people: some read Karamzin, some Moskovskie Vedomosti, some didn’t even read anything at all.” It is not difficult to notice the irony of A.S. Pushkin and N.V. Gogol regarding the education of his heroes. Thus, both authors in the above fragments ridicule

secular society's desire for superficial education.

What epithets are most important for characterizing Lensky and why?

How the author’s attitude is manifested in the description of Vladimir Lensky
to the hero?

Pushkin paints an unusually bright and lively image of a romantic poet, striking in his sincerity, decency and vulnerability from any blows of fate. We see a dreamy person who strives to express his moods and dreams in poetry. He's alien secular society and stands out sharply against the background of the secular crowd. Thus, A.S. Pushkin has sympathy for Lensky, because his hero believes in high friendship, in eternal, ideal love.But not only the poet sympathizes with the young romantic. The description shows that the author is critical of his poetry and condemns it for its vacuity and sweetness.

1.1.3 Compare this fragment of the novel by A.S. Pushkin “Eugene Onegin” with the fragment below from the novel by M.Yu. Lermontov "Hero of Our Time". What are the similarities and differences between the characters of the main characters of these works?

1.1.1At the beginning and end of the letter, Tatyana talks about shame. What is the heroine ashamed of?

Tatyana is Pushkin's favorite heroine. She is characterized by high morality and purity of soul. In Pushkin’s time, only a man could be the first to confess his love. A woman’s confession was considered indecent, as it violated the canons formed in society. Tatyana's confession is a brave and extraordinary act, so she herself is ashamed of it.

  1. In her message, Tatyana addresses Onegin either as “you” or “you”. How does this reveal the heroine’s state of mind?

Tatiana's letter to Onegin is a sincere and very brave impulse of a young soul. Analyzing it, you can see that the heroine experiences conflicting feelings, because she is the first to confess her love for a young man. Thus, excitement and anxiety for her honor make Tatyana confused. In addition, she addresses herself as “you,” most likely, not to the real Eugene Onegin, but to the hero of her novels, who has long been familiar and close to her.

What personal qualities of Tatyana are manifested in her letter to Onegin?

1.1.3 Compare Tatyana’s letter to Onegin with Vera’s letter to Pechorin given below from the novel by M.Yu. Lermontov "Hero of Our Time".
What is the difference between the natures of Tatyana and Vera?

Both heroines are in love. Both love selflessly, are ready to surrender to love without a trace. Just as Tatyana is the opposite of Onegin, so Vera is the opposite of Pechorin.

Tatyana's love is strong, so she, unwittingly idealizing her lover, describes not the real Onegin, but her dream of a loved one who attracts not so much with her appearance, education and smart speeches, but with a kindred spirit who can be a “guardian angel.” Unlike Pushkin’s heroine, Vera sensibly evaluates her lover and understands his essence: “... you loved me as property, as a source of joys, anxieties and sorrows, replacing each other, without which life is boring and monotonous. I understood this at first...” This is the difference between the two heroines.

Lensky is a naive, gullible and simple-minded young man.He is pure in soul, freedom-loving, and easy to communicate with. However, the hero lives in his own romantic world.Thus, A.S. Pushkin emphasizes that Lensky, due to his daydreaming, does not deeply delve into the essence of things. All this leads to the fact that he does not understand people.

1.1.2What role do epithets play in this episode of the novel?

Epithets are one of the means of artistic expression that help convey the author’s attitude towards his characters. In the given fragment, with their help, the author emphasizes the poetic passion, burning and enthusiasm of the young romantic: “mad soul”, “captive youth”, “golden games”, “young delights”. Thus, this type of trope plays a big role in creating a dreamy and the image of a romantic poet in love.

1.1.3 Compare the fragment in question from the novel by A.S. Pushkin “Eugene Onegin” with a fragment of the story by N.M. Karamzin " Poor Lisa" What's the difference author's attitude to the heroes?

The given fragments give a description of young people. However, authors treat their heroes differently. A.S. Pushkin writes enthusiastically about the young poet, admiring his pure soul, not corrupted by the light: “.”The attitude towards Erast is ambiguous. N.M. Karamzin not only notes his kindness, politeness, his desire to help poor people, but also shows negative qualities: “” Thus, Lensky is sympathetic to A.S. Pushkin, and Erast causes N.M. Karamzin to condemn him for frivolity and frivolity.

PART 1

Read the fragment of the work below and complete tasks B1 - B7; C1, C2.

Happy is the traveler who, after a long, boring road with its cold, slush, dirt, lack of sleep station attendants, with the jingling of bells, repairs, squabbles, coachmen, blacksmiths and all sorts of road scoundrels, he finally sees a familiar roof with lights rushing towards him, and familiar rooms appear before him, the joyful cry of people running out to meet him, the noise and running of children and soothing quiet speeches, interrupted by flaming kisses , with the power to destroy everything sad from memory. Happy is the family man who has such a corner, but woe to the bachelor!

Happy is the writer who, past boring, disgusting characters, striking with their sad reality, approaches characters that demonstrate the high dignity of a person who, from the great pool of daily rotating images, chose only a few exceptions, who never changed the sublime structure of his lyre, did not descend from the top to his poor, insignificant brothers, and, without touching the ground, he plunged entirely into his own images, far removed from it and exalted. His wonderful destiny is doubly enviable: he is among them as if in his own family; and yet his glory spreads far and loudly. He smoked people's eyes with intoxicating smoke; he wonderfully flattered them, hiding the sad things in life, showing them a wonderful person. Everyone, clapping their hands, rushes after him and rushes after his solemn chariot. They call him a great world poet, soaring high above all other geniuses of the world, just as an eagle soars above other high-flying ones. At his very name, young, ardent hearts are already filled with trembling, responsive tears sparkle in everyone’s eyes... There is no one equal to him in strength - he is God! But this is not the fate, and the fate of the writer is different, who dared to call out everything that is every minute before the eyes and what indifferent eyes do not see - all the terrible, stunning mud of little things that entangle our lives, all the depth of the cold, fragmented, everyday characters with which ours teems. an earthly, sometimes bitter and boring road, and with the strong power of an inexorable chisel, who dared to expose them prominently and brightly to the eyes of the people! He cannot gather popular applause, he cannot bear the grateful tears and unanimous delight of the souls excited by him; a sixteen-year-old girl with a dizzy head and heroic enthusiasm will not fly towards him; he will not forget himself in the sweet charm of the sounds he emitted; he cannot, finally, escape from the modern court, the hypocritically insensitive modern court, which will call the creatures he cherishes insignificant and base, will relegate him to a despicable corner among the writers who insult humanity, will give him the qualities of the heroes he depicted, will take away his heart, both the soul and the divine flame of talent. For the modern court does not recognize that glass that looks at the sun and conveys the movements of unnoticed insects is equally wonderful; for the modern court does not recognize that a lot of spiritual depth is needed in order to illuminate a picture taken from a despicable life and elevate it to the pearl of creation; for the modern court does not recognize that high, enthusiastic laughter is worthy to stand next to high lyrical movement and that there is a whole abyss between it and the antics of a buffoon! The modern court does not recognize this and will turn everything into a reproach and reproach for the unrecognized writer; without division, without answer, without participation, like a familyless traveler, he will remain alone in the middle of the road. His field is harsh, and he will bitterly feel his loneliness.

Yes, do you need a register of all these parasites? Well, as I knew, I wrote them all down on a special piece of paper so that when I first submitted the revision, I could cross them all out.

Plyushkin put on his glasses and began rummaging through the papers. Untying all sorts of ties, he treated his guest to such dust that he sneezed. Finally he pulled out a piece of paper, all covered in writing. Peasant names covered her closely, like midges. There were all sorts of people there: Paramonov, and Pimenov, and Panteleimonov, and even some Grigory looked out; There were more than a hundred and twenty of them all. Chichikov smiled at the sight of such numbers. Having hidden it in his pocket, he noticed to Plyushkin that he would need to come to the city to complete the fortress.

To the city? But how?.., but how to leave the house? After all, my people are either a thief or a swindler: they will steal so much in a day that they won’t have anything to hang their caftan on.

So don't you know anyone?

Who do you know? All my friends died or fell apart. Ah, fathers! how not to have, I have! - he screamed. - After all, the chairman himself is familiar, he even came to see me in the old years, how could you not know! We were teammates and climbed fences together! how can you not be familiar? so familiar! So shouldn't I write to him?

And of course, to him.

Why, so familiar! I had friends at school.

And on this wooden face suddenly some kind of warm ray slid, it was not a feeling that was expressed, but some kind of pale reflection of a feeling, a phenomenon similar to the unexpected appearance of a drowning person on the surface of the waters, which produced a joyful cry in the crowd that surrounded the shore. But in vain the overjoyed brothers and sisters throw a rope from the shore and wait to see if the back or arms tired from the struggle will flash again - this was the last appearance. Everything is silent, and after that the quiet surface of the unresponsive element becomes even more terrible and deserted. So Plyushkin’s face, following the feeling that instantly slid across it, became even more insensitive and even more vulgar.

“There was a quarter of blank paper lying on the table,” he said, “but I don’t know where it went: my people are so worthless!”

Then he began to look under and on the table, rummaged everywhere and finally shouted: “Mavra! and Mavra! A woman answered the call with a plate in her hands, on which lay a cracker, already familiar to the reader. And the following conversation took place between them:

Where are you going, robber, paper?

By God, master, haven’t you seen the small piece of cloth with which you deigned to cover the glass?

But I can see in my eyes that I’ve tinkered.

But what would I like? After all, I have no use with her; I don't know how to read and write.

You're lying, you demolished the sexton: he messes around, so you demolished it for him.

Yes, the sexton, if he wants, can get himself papers. He hasn't seen your scrap!

Just wait a minute: at the Last Judgment the devils will beat you up with iron slingshots for this! You'll see how they cook!

But why will they punish me if I didn’t even pick up a quarter? It’s more likely some other woman’s weakness, but no one has ever reproached me for theft.

But the devils will get you! They’ll say: “Here’s to you, swindler, for deceiving the master!”, and they’ll give you a hot roast!

And I’ll say: you’re welcome! By God, no way, I didn’t take it... Yes, there she is lying on the table. You always reproach us unnecessarily!

Plyushkin saw, for sure, a four and stopped for a minute, chewed his lips and said: “Well, why did you disagree like that? What a pain! Tell her just one word, and she’ll answer with a dozen! Go and bring the light to seal the letter. Wait, you grab a tallow candle, tallow is a sticky business: it will burn - yes and no, only a loss; and bring me a splinter!”

Mavra left, and Plyushkin, sitting down in an armchair and taking a pen in his hand, spent a long time turning the four in all directions, wondering if it was possible to separate another eight from it, but finally became convinced that it was impossible; stuck the pen into an inkwell with some kind of moldy liquid and a lot of flies at the bottom and began to write, making letters that looked like musical notes, constantly holding his agility hand, which was jumping all over the paper, sparingly molding line after line, and not without regret, thinking about that there will still be a lot of blank space left.

N.V. Gogol, “Dead Souls”.

C1. How is Plyushkin’s character revealed in the above fragment?

Plyushkin is the last landowner to whom Chichikov comes to buy “dead souls.” How does Plyushkin appear in this episode? At first glance, he is rich, he has many peasants, but at the same time we see him as a bad owner: he even “treats” Chichikov with dust and cobwebs, everything is in disrepair. The landowner is so greedy and stingy that he condemns himself to a miserable existence. In this fragment, Gogol shows how Plyushkin asks for a “splinter” instead of a tallow candle, and is very worried about the fact that there are spaces between the lines on the tiny piece of paper. He is too distrustful of people: he is afraid to leave the house during a trip to the city, he reproaches Mavra for stealing a piece of paper. Everything has become dead in this landowner, and he, the owner of living souls, himself turns into a “dead soul.” At the same time, N. Gogol shows that a “warm ray” can slide across Plyushkin’s “wooden face” - at least a hint of some feeling, the hero has some memories of childhood, of a school friend, and this means that Plyushkin’s soul has not yet completely died.
