There are many examples in the literature on the topic of relationships between men and women. Often mutual feelings arise between two opposites. How will this affect the soul of each of them? Or will love between them for one reason or another turn out to be impossible, how will they endure this test? What is unique to women? What about men? Let's try to figure it out together with the Many-Wise Litrekon. He gave you arguments on the topic “Love” for the final essay of 2019-2020. Also don't forget to consider for 2019-2020.

  1. True love. To ensure the sincerity of a feeling, you need to analyze its manifestations. For example, the hero of the story “The Garnet Bracelet” wrote tender and heartfelt letters to his chosen one for seven years, but did not prevent her from building her life away from him. George saw the essence of love in adoration and care, but not in possession and violence. He accepted the choice of Vera, who chose to marry a man from her circle, as calm as herself. Zheltkov did not force himself on her, but only expressed his feelings and was content with the fact that she knew about them and, perhaps, thought about him. For the sake of the peace and happiness of his chosen one, the hero is ready to give everything he has, so he leaves this life. This selflessness and willingness to accept your loved one for who they are is evidence of true love.
  2. Unrequited love. Georgy Zheltkov from the story by A.I. Kuprin's "Pomegranate Bracelet" experiences unrequited love for Princess Vera Sheina. The heroes are not destined to be together, because they live in different worlds. She, a representative of the aristocracy, is committed to tradition and would never choose a simple telegraph operator as her life partner. Zheltkov is poor and has no title, so his love letters are perceived as a joke or even an insult. Despite the neglect, Georgy loves Vera and no longer expects reciprocity. He is content with a platonic relationship with her, conveying affection and delight through letters. He does not need anything in return, he is ready to put up with irresponsibility further, just to be able to at least talk about his emotions. This is unrequited love - a feeling that does not require an answer.
  3. All arguments from Kuprin’s work can be found in.

"Lady with a Dog"

  1. Love changes people. In the story by A.P. Chekhov's "Lady with a Dog" tells the story of a meeting between two spiritually lonely people who have not known true happiness. Dmitry Dmitrievich Gurov is a seemingly morally developed person. He does not love his wife, he is cynical towards women, but he is often surrounded by them. Cheating on his wife is a common thing for him. It is noteworthy that it is his feelings and their change that are central to the story. At a resort in Yalta, he meets Anna Sergeevna. They begin an affair, but gradually it turns out that it is not based on ardent passion, but on a real spiritual relationship, the kind that should exist between a husband and wife. These relationships influence Gurov. At first he treats them as an ordinary holiday romance, but upon returning to Moscow, he realizes that Anna Sergeevna is a dear person to him. When he found love, he realized how vulgar and petty a life he was distracting himself from the main thing - from loneliness. Gurov regained his sight and saw in the people around him the insignificance and dullness of the identical days that he had lost.
  2. Love is both suffering and pleasure. For Anna, this relationship initially had great value. She doesn't love her husband, but she has never cheated on him. Anna is a different person; for her, betrayal is a sin. She perceives her action as a moral failure, and yet feels that she cannot do otherwise. Anna loves Gurov. Their meetings are hard for her, and life without love is hard for her. For her, this feeling is both suffering and pleasure, because in her romance with Gurov she suffers from a reproach of conscience, but rejoices at a new, more meaningful and full life. Both heroes understand that they missed something important, and only found it now when they met.

"The Captain's Daughter"

  1. An example of a good relationship that has withstood the trials of fate, the reader will find in the novel-story “The Captain's Daughter”. Masha Mironova - it was in honor of her that Pushkin named his work - a meek heroine with a kind disposition and a bright soul. At the beginning of the story, she appears before us as a girl whom we want to protect. However, it is thanks to her that Pyotr Grinev gains freedom. Despite all the difficulties that befell her (the death of her parents, the uprising, Shvabrin’s attacks), Masha manages to retain the capacity for love. When the heroine learns about Peter's arrest, she rushes to the rescue and reaches the empress herself. With her intercession she is not afraid to incur shame or disfavor. She is not Grinev’s wife or even fiancée, but asks for him in front of Catherine the Second and exposes herself to attack. Marya's brave act justified itself, and she saved Peter. Sometimes it is love that requires much more strength from us than anger and hatred.
  2. Love makes people better. Peter matures as the story progresses. If he leaves his home as a carefree, flighty man who dreams of an easy service in St. Petersburg, then at the end of the story we see a serious and noble young man, capable of protecting his loved ones. It is his love for Masha that makes him a brave person. For her sake, he does the most daring things: challenges an experienced and strong opponent to a duel, fights bravely to defend the fortress, returns to the enemy’s lair to save his beloved. All these steps help the hero reveal his inner potential and become more self-confident. He loves and learns to take responsibility for his love, this is precisely the feeling that he lacked in his parents’ house. Seeing the transformed brave son, the parents agree to marry the dowryless woman, because it was this first and ardent love that made Peter a real man.

"War and Peace"

  1. Love makes a person different. In the epic novel L.N. Tolstoy’s “War and Peace” describes the relationship between the main character, Natasha Rostova, and her husband Pierre Bezukhov. This is an unusual union, and many readers have a wide variety of feelings about it: from joy to disappointment. After the trials she endured, a difficult breakup with Andrei Bolkonsky, his death, she receives an unexpected confession from Pierre, and subsequently marries him. Undoubtedly, she was able to appreciate his qualities. He was a friend of Bolkonsky, he is a noble man, but does she love Pierre? It is difficult to answer this question unambiguously. At the beginning of the novel we see an ardent girl with a burning heart, at the end - a woman whose main function is to raise and educate children. It is unlikely that Natasha has lost the remaining qualities of her personality, but now they are less in demand, and therefore in the shadows. It seems that if their fate with Bolkonsky had worked out happily, the reader would have found a completely different Natasha on the pages of the novel. However, this does not mean that she is unhappy with Pierre. It’s just that in this union other traits of her personality appeared.
  2. Happiness in marriage. Pierre Bezukhov is undoubtedly a kind and honest person, he is characterized by some naivety: Helen Kuragina easily deceives him, making their marriage unhappy. Tired of disappointment, having been tested by the war, as a person completely unprepared for it, he finally finds personal family happiness. Pierre can also be classified as a searching hero, trying to come to the truth, a common denominator. He finds it in family harmony alone with those who are truly dear to him. He is honest, kind and noble, so a reliable and faithful marriage with Rostova makes him happy. This is his reward for his previous misfortune.
  3. Loyalty and betrayal in love. Natasha Rostova is a girl with an inquisitive, lively mind, but she is characterized by some impulsiveness in her actions. She is kind and able to sympathize with people, but at the same time, out of ignorance and inexperience, she can harm them. So, while waiting for the wedding, Rostova became interested in another man and almost ran away from home with him. Anatole Kuragin deceived her and wanted to take advantage of her innocence, although he himself was already married. This escape upset the engagement and deeply insulted Andrei Bolkonsky. But it is difficult to condemn her for her act with Anatoly Kuragin: she was too young and therefore believed him. Probably, if Bolkonsky, at the behest of his father, had not postponed the wedding for a year, this would not have happened. After all, Natasha loved Bolkonsky and was waiting for him. The reader sees the strength of her feelings in the episode when Natasha takes care of the wounded Bolkonsky and feels guilty before him. She repents of her mistake and even wants to resume the relationship if the prince recovers. So, in love you shouldn’t make hasty conclusions: perhaps an attempt to change is just a slight obsession that can be understood and forgiven.

"Hero of Our Time"

  1. Does love always make a person happy?. In the novel by M.Yu. Lermontov “Hero of Our Time” Grigory Pechorin is a person disappointed in life, often bringing pain and disappointment to others. Pechorin is tired of everything, he doesn’t see the meaning in anything, and treats life like a memorized book - everyone knows what will happen in the end. And sometimes it seems that he is bringing this finale closer. Pechorin has success with women, but it also brings him only short-term pleasure. Most often, at the end of any relationship, Gregory experiences disappointment and brings pain to others. But Pechorin is by no means a villain; one can only sympathize with him, like Onegin. After all, the pain that he inflicts on others also hurts him: it is the awareness that he has made someone unhappy that makes Pechorin believe in the depravity of his own nature. And if you consider yourself evil, then doing evil is natural for you. When you cause pain repeatedly, you stop being surprised by it, it becomes a normal state for you.
  2. Unrequited love. One of the girls described in the novel “A Hero of Our Time” was Bela. Seeing her, Pechorin wanted to gain the affection of the beautiful Circassian woman. Bela, an unapproachable, unusually beautiful girl, did not react to Pechorin’s gifts for a long time and ignored all his attempts to establish contact. She was brought up according to completely different laws, in a different culture, and this also captivated Gregory. He even learned the Tatar language in order to communicate with her. Gradually Bela fell in love with Pechorin. She fell in love exactly as much as she was unapproachable. She became very attached to Gregory. Their happiness lasted only four months. After this, Pechorin got tired of such affection. And he no longer needed Bela. It was hard to look at the girl wounded and crushed by love, and Maxim Maksimych felt very sorry for her. The heroine was painfully worried about her uselessness and, it seems, was even glad of death as a deliverance.

"Spring Waters"

  1. First love is the strongest. I. A. Turgenev’s story “Spring Waters” is built in the form of memories of a Russian landowner who turns to his past for an image dear to him - the image of his first love - the beautiful Italian girl Gemma. Dmitry Pavlovich Sanin, as a young man, traveled abroad and found his love on this journey. Dmitry helps the girl revive her younger brother, who has lost consciousness. He easily connects with him and Gemma's mother. Sanin is a person capable of protecting and capable of sincere love. But he does not have a moral core, he does not have the willpower to cope with circumstances and defend his love. He leaves to organize things before the wedding and sell the estate. So he meets a beautiful Russian rich woman - Marya Nikolaevna. She knows about her power over men, and for fun she decides to get Sanin in any way. She succeeds. Sanin struggles with himself, but his attempts are in vain. He follows Marya Nikolaevna to Paris and loses his true love, Gemma. He regrets this action all his life.
  2. Love is like a game. The image of Marya Nikolaevna, who acted as the fatal circumstances that broke Sanin, is the image of a beautiful but cold woman. She doesn’t care about other people’s feelings; she looks at Sanin as prey: pathetic and easy. It’s even more interesting for her if the game conditions become more complicated. At the same time, she does not evaluate her actions from a moral point of view, probably believing that this is not necessary. She does not have the task of looking for the true reasons for her own and other people’s actions. In Paris, she leaves Sanin, losing all interest in him. The game is over, which means the meaning of communicating with him is lost.

"Eugene Onegin"

  1. Unrequited love. In the novel by A.S. Pushkin's "Eugene Onegin" describes love without reciprocity, which made both heroes unhappy. The main character lived in the village and devoted most of her leisure time to French novels. It is quite clear that Tatiana’s heart was developed beyond her years and was waiting for love, but not ordinary, but beautiful, as on the pages of her favorite books. As if on purpose, Byron’s hero, Eugene Onegin, appeared in the village. He was withdrawn, indifferent to everything, mocking, intelligent, and his face expressed suffering, as if he had experienced a lot. Tatyana immediately fell in love and even compromised herself with a letter to her lover. Evgeniy was not ready for family life and spoke directly about this young girl, not wanting to deceive her. Tatyana accepted his refusal, but her heart never let go of Evgeniy. Even when she got married, love still lived in her heart. Then Evgeny had to face refusal, because Tatiana’s marriage separated loving people forever.
  2. Fake love. In the novel by A.S. Pushkin's "Eugene Onegin" describes an example of false love, when one person is deceived in the feelings of another. So, Vladimir fell madly in love with Olga. He dedicated poems to her and dreamed of family life. Their wedding had already been scheduled, because the young lady was flattered by such signs of attention. Olga, in her own way, was carried away by the poet, but was a flighty and frivolous girl, so she could not respond to Lensky with the same deep feeling. Her temper is revealed on Tatiana's name day, when Onegin, wanting to annoy his friend, begins to court Olga. The young lady immediately began to flirt and make advances towards Evgeniy. She forgot about her groom, and at that time he suffered disproportionately. It was her fault that he died in the prime of his life in a duel, and Olga herself did not grieve for long and soon married an officer.

Concepts such as “loyalty” and “treason” have always been the object of attention of writers and have been placed at the center of the plots of works of world literature in general.

The story of Gabriel Troepolsky "White Bim Black Ear" is called the "hymn of fidelity." It reveals the theme of a dog's devotion to a person. While still a puppy, Bim was given to a new owner - writer Ivan Ivanovich. The man became very attached to the dog. The harmony was disrupted by the arrival of people in white coats. The owner was taken to the hospital. The dog stays with a neighbor, and one day, after waiting for the moment, he runs away in search of his owner.

Along the way, he meets different people, even experiencing cruelty towards himself. In the end he returns to his native yard. But then he is caught and taken to a shelter. Almost simultaneously, the writer leaves the hospital. Having learned about everything, he comes to the shelter, but Bim is already dead.

In another form, in the form of loyalty to a loved one, this concept appears in “The Master and Margarita” by Mikhail Bulgakov. Margarita was faithful to the end not only to love, but also to the creation of her Master. For the sake of this feeling, she even sold her soul to the devil, and it was thanks to her that Woland returned the novel burned by the Master.

The opposite theme is the theme of betrayal, which was raised by Nikolai Gogol in the story “Taras Bulba”. Taras's youngest son, Andriy, goes over to the side of his enemies because of his love for a beautiful Polish woman. The father does not forgive betrayal of the Motherland, family, comrades and kills his son.

An example of betrayal can also be found in Leo Tolstoy's novel Anna Karenina. The main character Anna cheats on her husband with Vronsky. But this betrayal is not in vain for her, she does not repent of what she did. The result is Anna's suicide.

Arguments for the direction “Loyalty and Treason” for the final essay. L.N. Tolstoy "War and Peace".


Treason.
-Natasha Rostova could not remain faithful to Andrei Bolkonsky. She spiritually cheated on him with Anatoly Kuragin, even wanted to run away with him.
She was pushed to betray her by 2 reasons: lack of worldly wisdom, inexperience, and also uncertainty about Andrei and her future with him. When leaving Natasha, Andrei did not clarify personal matters with her, did not give her confidence in her position. Anatol Kuragin, taking advantage of Natasha’s inexperience, seduced her. Rostova, due to her age, was unable to think about the consequences of her choice; only chance saved her from shame.

Helen Kuragina in the novel is presented as a person with a lack of moral principles. That’s why the concept of fidelity is alien to her. In life, she is guided only by profit, she makes all decisions to serve her own interests, the feelings of other people mean nothing to her. When she married Pierre, she did not realize that she could hurt him, and thought only about material gain. Helene did not love Pierre and did not want children from him. Therefore, the marriage was doomed to death. Her numerous infidelities left no chance for their union. As a result, Pierre suggested breaking up with her because he could no longer tolerate the shame.

Loyalty to the Motherland.
- Kutuzov is presented in the novel War and Peace as a man loyal to his Fatherland. He deliberately makes unpopular decisions to save his country from destruction.
- Most of the heroes of the novel sacrifice their lives for the sake of victory in the war.

Loyalty to parents and one's principles.

- Marya Bolkonskaya devoted her entire life to serving her loved ones, in particular her father. She endured reproaches addressed to her and steadfastly endured her father’s rudeness. When the enemy army was advancing, she did not leave her sick father, she did not betray herself. She put the interests of her loved ones higher than her own.
- Marya was a deeply religious person. Neither the hardships of fate nor disappointment could extinguish the fire of faith in her.

Loyalty to your moral principles.

-The Rostov family showed that even in the most difficult times you can maintain dignity. Even when the country was in chaos, the members of this family remained true to their moral principles. They helped the soldiers by hosting them at home. The hardships of life did not affect their characters.

WAR AND PEACE ANALYSIS
WAR AND PEACE SUMMARY

THE PROBLEM OF PERSISTENCE AND COURAGE OF THE RUSSIAN ARMY DURING MILITARY TESTS

1. In the novel L.N. Tostogo's "War and Peace" Andrei Bolkonsky convinces his friend Pierre Bezukhov that the battle is won by an army that wants to defeat the enemy at all costs, and not one that has a better disposition. On the Borodino field, every Russian soldier fought desperately and selflessly, knowing that behind him was the ancient capital, the heart of Russia, Moscow.

2. In the story by B.L. Vasilyeva “And the dawns here are quiet...” five young girls who opposed the German saboteurs died defending their homeland. Rita Osyanina, Zhenya Komelkova, Lisa Brichkina, Sonya Gurvich and Galya Chetvertak could have survived, but they were sure that they had to fight to the end. The anti-aircraft gunners showed courage and restraint and showed themselves to be true patriots.

THE PROBLEM OF TENDERNESS

1. An example of sacrificial love is Jane Eyre, the heroine of Charlotte Brontë's novel of the same name. Jen happily became the eyes and hands of the person most dear to her when he went blind.

2. In the novel L.N. Tolstoy's "War and Peace" Marya Bolkonskaya patiently endures her father's severity. She treats the old prince with love, despite his difficult character. The princess does not even think about the fact that her father is often too demanding of her. Marya's love is sincere, pure, bright.

THE PROBLEM OF PRESERVING HONOR

1. In the novel by A.S. Pushkin's "The Captain's Daughter" for Pyotr Grinev the most important life principle was honor. Even in the face of danger death penalty Peter, who swore allegiance to the empress, refused to recognize Pugachev as sovereign. The hero understood that this decision could cost him his life, but a sense of duty prevailed over fear. Alexey Shvabrin, on the contrary, committed treason and lost his own dignity when he joined the camp of the impostor.

2. The problem of maintaining honor is raised in the story by N.V. Gogol "Taras Bulba". The two sons of the main character are completely different. Ostap is an honest and brave person. He never betrayed his comrades and died like a hero. Andriy is a romantic person. For the sake of love for a Polish woman, he betrays his homeland. His personal interests come first. Andriy dies at the hands of his father, who could not forgive the betrayal. Thus, you always need to remain honest first of all with yourself.

THE PROBLEM OF DEVOTED LOVE

1. In the novel by A.S. Pushkin's "The Captain's Daughter" Pyotr Grinev and Masha Mironova love each other. Peter defends the honor of his beloved in a duel with Shvabrin, who insulted the girl. In turn, Masha saves Grinev from exile when she “asks for mercy” from the Empress. Thus, the basis of the relationship between Masha and Peter is mutual assistance.

2. Selfless love is one of the themes of M.A.’s novel. Bulgakov "The Master and Margarita". A woman is able to accept the interests and aspirations of her lover as her own and helps him in everything. The master writes a novel - and this becomes the content of Margarita's life. She rewrites the finished chapters, trying to keep the master calm and happy. A woman sees her destiny in this.

THE PROBLEM OF REPENTANCE

1. In the novel by F.M. Dostoevsky's "Crime and Punishment" shows the long path to repentance of Rodion Raskolnikov. Confident in the validity of his theory of “permitting blood according to conscience,” main character despises himself for his own weakness and does not realize the gravity of the crime committed. However, faith in God and love for Sonya Marmeladova lead Raskolnikov to repentance.

THE PROBLEM OF SEARCHING FOR THE MEANING OF LIFE IN THE MODERN WORLD

1. In the story by I.A. Bunin "Mr. from San Francisco" American millionaire served the "golden calf". The main character believed that the meaning of life was to accumulate wealth. When the Master died, it turned out that true happiness passed him by.

2. In Leo Nikolayevich Tolstoy's novel "War and Peace" Natasha Rostova sees the meaning of life in family, love for family and friends. After the wedding with Pierre Bezukhov, the main character abandons social life and devotes herself entirely to her family. Natasha Rostova found her purpose in this world and became truly happy.

THE PROBLEM OF LITERARY ILLITERACY AND LOW LEVEL OF EDUCATION AMONG YOUTH

1. In “Letters about the good and the beautiful” D.S. Likhachev claims that a book teaches a person better than any work. The famous scientist admires the ability of a book to educate a person and shape his inner world. Academician D.S. Likhachev comes to the conclusion that it is books that teach one to think and make a person intelligent.

2. Ray Bradbury in his novel Fahrenheit 451 shows what happened to humanity after all books were completely destroyed. It may seem that in such a society there is no social problems. The answer lies in the fact that it is simply unspiritual, since there is no literature that can force people to analyze, think, and make decisions.

THE PROBLEM OF EDUCATION OF CHILDREN

1. In the novel by I.A. Goncharova "Oblomov" Ilya Ilyich grew up in an atmosphere of constant care from parents and educators. As a child, the main character was an inquisitive and active child, but excessive care led to Oblomov’s apathy and weak-willedness in adulthood.

2. In the novel L.N. Tolstoy's "War and Peace" the spirit of mutual understanding, loyalty, and love reigns in the Rostov family. Thanks to this, Natasha, Nikolai and Petya became worthy people, inherited kindness and nobility. Thus, the conditions created by the Rostovs contributed to the harmonious development of their children.

THE PROBLEM OF THE ROLE OF PROFESSIONALISM

1. In the story by B.L. Vasilyeva “My horses are flying...” Smolensk doctor Janson works tirelessly. The main character rushes to help the sick in any weather. Thanks to his responsiveness and professionalism, Dr. Janson managed to gain the love and respect of all residents of the city.
