Competitive essay based on the story "Scarlet Sails" by A.S.
Always follow
for your dream
based on the story by A.S. Grin "Scarlet Sails"
"Guys, you have to believe in miracles ... in miracles." So begins a song known to many people. From early childhood, we begin to dream. First about toys, then about books, later about a computer... With age, dreams become more significant, important. But, of course, every person dreams of something. Alexander Grin wrote a romantic story about the state of mind of any of us, because everyone has a cherished dream.
What is a dream? Why should you follow your dreams? The answer to this question is not so simple, but it is still there. A kind, bright dream carries bright, strong emotions. At first, you look forward to it, sometimes you endure smiles, in an instant you can lose faith that the dream will come true. But how happy you are when one day you realize that your dream has come true, in which you almost stopped believing. Smile, laugh, tears of joy! But the main thing is that at this moment it becomes good for everyone who surrounds you. And when you see their happiness, you feel even greater joy and understand why it was worth waiting and believing.
The lights went out, and everyone froze in anticipation of a miracle. People were in a hurry to pick up their children from school, leave work early, just to be in time for a performance about a girl who believed in a kind, bright, beautiful dream. The name of this modest heroine is Assol. In early childhood, the girl lost her mother, so her father raised her. He gave his daughter his love, consoled her when her peers mocked her. Assol and Longren did not live like the rest. They differed from others in their characters and principles of life. From early childhood, the father taught his daughter to appreciate the inner beauty in everything, and not look at the deceptive “outer wrapper”. Assol could not understand why they were not loved with her father, she did not yet realize that they were not like everyone else.
"Tell me why they don't like us?" “Hey, Assol,” said Longren, “do they know how to love? You have to be able to love, but that's something they can't." - “How is it to be able to?” - "But like this!" He took the girl in his arms and kissed her sad eyes, squinting with tender pleasure.
Once in the forest, Assol met a mysterious wizard who told her: “I don’t know how many years will pass - only in Kaperna one fairy tale will bloom, memorable for a long time. You will be big, Assol. One morning, in the sea distance, a scarlet sail will sparkle under the sun ... Then you will see a brave handsome prince; he will stand and stretch out his hands to you. “Hello, Assol! he will say... From that day on, the girl did not leave the dream that one day someone would come who would take her from the village, where they did not understand her and her father. Assol dreamed of simple human happiness. She endured reproaches, wry smiles; she was considered crazy, but she believed that somewhere, perhaps on the other side of the earth, there lived someone who would say to her one morning: “Hello!” And such a person really was: “If Caesar found it better to be the first in the village than the second in Rome, then Arthur Gray could not envy Caesar in relation to his wise desire. He was born a captain, wanted to be one and became one. The boy, like Assol, had a dream. Gray from early childhood dreamed of becoming a sea commander and achieved this. Both heroes believed and hoped, and this is the most important thing.
You need to believe in your dream, hope that someday it will bring happiness not only to you, but also to the people around you. If you tell everyone about your dream, the probability that it will come true is extremely small, and if you “dream about something silently”, then surely everything cherished and secret will come true. Assol kept her hope a secret from everyone. She turned a blind eye to insults, just waited and believed that her dream would come true. Perhaps if from early childhood Longren had not taught Assol to be different from everyone else, to be more sincere and vulnerable, then we would not have seen such a wonderful fairy tale. The heroine chose a more difficult, longer path, but, as it turned out in the end, her decision was the right one.
Of course, the meaning of the dream is also important. Assol and Gray dreamed of something that could not harm anyone. And if we turn to history, we will remember the dream of power over the world. Napoleon dreamed of ruling the whole world, as Hitler later wanted. And this dream turned into a disaster for all people. In this case, the main rule of the dream was not fulfilled: it did not bring happiness to the people around them. Why such a dream? Therefore, of course, it is not enough just to have a dream. It is important that she be kind.
Probably every person sitting at this performance was thinking about something of their own. Someone, like me, was thinking about a dream, someone was worried about the fate of Assol ... But, of course, the atmosphere itself delighted everyone present. Let's imagine... You are on the seashore, the sound of water, the sun is a little hot, the waves cover your feet with warm, like milk, water... There is not a single ship on the horizon, not a single living soul nearby. Peace, tranquility, bliss - and suddenly in an instant all this disappears, and a scarlet sail soars above you ... It seems that the words from the song will now sound:
“Not three eyes, because this is not a dream,
And the scarlet sail really proudly flies,
In the bay where the brave Gray
I found my Assol, In the bay where Assol
Waiting for Gray ... "
Everything becomes clear only at the moment when a girl with a small boat in her hands runs out onto the stage with the words: “I'm here, I'm here! It's me!".
Happy can be called a person whose dream has come true. But we experience real happiness only when we see the happiness of others. Some are crying at this moment, and some are smiling sincerely. And when Assol ran onto the stage, the whole audience stood up and began to applaud. “Scarlet Sails” is a poem that affirms the strength of the human spirit, illuminated through and through, like the morning sun, with love for life, for spiritual youth and the belief that a person, in a fit of happiness, is able to perform miracles with his own hands,” said the famous writer K Paustovsky. And there is no person who would not agree with this phrase. Everyone should always follow their dream, because it will surely bring happiness not only to him, but to all people. After reading the wonderful story of A. S. Green "Scarlet Sails", we can say without a doubt: "Guys, we must believe in miracles."

>Compositions based on the work Scarlet Sails
Why does a person need a dream
The extravaganza story by Alexander Grin was written in the first half of the twentieth century. She already shocked the townsfolk with her heartfelt story about unshakable faith and an all-conquering dream. Even the ancient Greeks claimed that having a dream is already half the success, since the desire itself creates. The main thing is to never give up and believe that dreams tend to come true. So in the extravaganza "Scarlet Sails" the author leads us along long way to a cherished dream.
The main character of the work is young Assol, whom old Egl, a collector of legends and fairy tales, once predicted that a handsome prince would sail for her under scarlet sails and take her to a distant country. Assol believed in this prediction so strongly that she never doubted that it would come true. As luck would have it, Aigle's words were heard by a local beggar who spread the word throughout Caperna. Since then, Assol has gained a reputation for being crazy, dreaming of a fairytale prince on a white ship. Of course, these rumors brought her some inconvenience, but the dream did not weaken from this.
When Assol grew up, fate was pleased to bring to Liss, which is an hour and a half walk from Kaperna, a three-masted galliot of a handsome and representative of a noble family Arthur Gray. The guy was extremely purposeful, fearless and determined. As a child, he saw in the library of the castle in which he grew up a picture of some famous marine painter, he decided to become a sailor at all costs. At the age of twenty, he bought his first three-masted galliot "Secret" and plowed the expanses of the blue sea on it. For the first time he saw Assol in the bushes where she was sleeping. He liked her so much that he immediately put his old ring on her little finger.
From local residents Arthur learned about the girl's cherished dream to meet her prince under scarlet sails and go with him to distant lands. This dream did not seem to him extravagant, but on the contrary deserved respect. On the same day he bought scarlet silk in one of the shops of Liss in order to decorate his galliot. He also invited the wandering musician Zimmer with an orchestra and thoroughly prepared for the meeting with Assol. Seeing a white ship with scarlet sails, the girl could not believe her eyes, but in the depths of her soul she always knew that this would happen someday.
The main thing is to firmly believe in the dream and it will definitely come true. Any person needs a dream, because without it life becomes boring and meaningless. The story of Alexander Green confirms this. Assol's life was not easy. girl in early age lost her mother
The works of A. Green are filled with sincerity, wisdom and observation. From early childhood in the memory of every person live stories that enriched the soul of each of us in due time, instilled a sense of hope and faith in a dream.
"Scarlet Sails" is an amazing work that forms the inner consciousness of people, making it more humane, open to new impressions and emotions. It is saturated with striking contrasts between the worldview of society and that of an individual person who was able to preserve in his soul what had long been lost by others.
What is the story "Scarlet Sails" about?
The callous, spiritually poor inhabitants of a small seaside town are opposed by the girl Assol, who, due to life circumstances, has become an outcast of this society. Asol had no girlfriends, only with her father she could share her experiences, dreams and thoughts.
It was the father who opened for the girl all the mysterious mysteries of nature, talked about sea voyages, about the intricacies of human relationships. Assol absorbed what her father taught her and acquired her own worldview, which further separated her from society.
But the negativity of society did not hurt the girl, as she clearly understood that her own opinion was more important to her than the biased attitude of the "blind" crowd. Assol believed that one day a person would come to her who would completely understand her, and with him she would find true happiness.
Once, during a walk, Assol met Egl, a famous storyteller and collector of legends. He told the girl that one morning a majestic ship with scarlet sails would enter the harbor. A beautiful brave prince will come out of him, who is already looking for Assol and will take her with him to his kingdom, where they will live for a long time loving each other.
Assol sincerely believed Egl and began to wait for her prince. This became another reason for people to tease the girl. They teased her as a dreamer, did not perceive her words and gloated that the years were passing, and Assol remained in anticipation of her fantastic prince.
But the girl, in spite of everything, believed that one day it would happen. And one day fate rewarded her for this: Agle's prophecy came true, and she met her prince.
She met a young man who, having learned about her dream and how this dream is perceived in society, bought the most expensive Scarlet Sails. He left the ship to meet the girl, thus making her dreams come true.
Faith in beauty and dream of happiness
The heroine Assol teaches us to believe in something that at first glance is absolutely not feasible. After all, the power of human desire, backed up by faith and hope, has no boundaries.
The main thing is to keep kindness and sincerity in your heart, which sooner or later will lead to the realization of a dream. "Scarlet Sails" should in no case be taken as a fairy tale, because a miracle can happen in the life of every person if he is open to him.
One should not be afraid to resist public false and low morals, but boldly go towards one's dream, regardless of difficulties and obstacles. But you should also remember about your loved ones, because each of us can fulfill their cherished dreams, the main thing is just to try to find out about them.

Introductory speech of the teacher
TEACHER. “The fog has not cleared yet; in it the shape of a huge ship, slowly turning towards the mouth of the river, faded. Its folded sails came to life, hanging in festoons, straightening out and covering the masts with impotent shields of huge folds ... But then the air pressure intensified, dispelled the fog and poured out along the yards into light scarlet forms full of roses. Pink shadows glided over the whiteness of the masts and rigging, everything was white, except for the spread, smoothly moved sails, the color of deep joy.
Really nice lines? Through them, as if looking through the blue sea space, as if we looked out of the window overlooking the sea. The window opens: the freshness of the sea wind, and salt spray, and the sound of the surf burst into the room. The same thing happens when we open a book by Alexander Stepanovich Green.
TEACHER. If you ever dreamed about the sea, you will surely share the dreams of this writer and fall in love with his world full of romance, a world in which the beautiful unrealizable is possible.
“When the days start gathering dust and the colors fade, I take Green. I open it on any page. So in the spring wipe the windows in the house. Everything becomes light, bright, everything mysteriously excites again, as in childhood,” wrote D. Granin.
TEACHER. Alexander Grin created his own extraordinary world, which each of us yearns for in the depths of our souls. A little girl Assol lives in this world, trusting and expecting beauty. This is the world of little Gray, a miracle worker boy who heals Christ's bloodied wounds (even if only in a picture and with the help of paint), who turns into a brave captain with a strange flying soul. This is the world where the "wizard" Aigle meets, promising happiness.
TEACHER. So, a lesson-study on the story "Scarlet Sails". “Love, dream and believe…” More than one generation reads Green's books, because his characters know how to love, dream and believe. This is how Assol and Gray dream and love. We will get acquainted with the wonderful world and the characters of the story "Scarlet Sails" and will look for answers to the questions:
Is the meeting of Assol and Gray accidental?
What is the meaning of the title of the story?
TEACHER. Extravaganza, as the writer himself defined the genre of his work. Guys, what do you think, what is extravaganza??
(Before us is a world of love and dreams; a fascinating world of fairy tales, fantasy, from which you don’t want to leave; a world that teaches you to hope, believe and wait, love, create happiness with your own hands; unique world fantasy, something magical, fabulous, where good always triumphs over evil. Green puts a special meaning into the word "extravaganza". Assol and Gray themselves create a miracle.)
Text conversation
In the first chapter "Prediction" the author introduces us to the sad story that happened in the family of the sailor Longren. His wife died, leaving a newborn daughter. The culprit of what happened is the shopkeeper Menners, who did not want to help the poor woman. And Mary was forced to go to the city in inclement weather. On the way, she caught a cold, fell ill, and died. Longren left his job as a sailor, began to live in the village, raise his daughter, and take care of the household.
- Why do you think Longren began to manufacture children's toys?
- What event influenced the further fate of the sailor and his daughter?
- Why did the residents of Caperna dislike Longren? For his act or behavior? (He was not like the others. He knew how to love, and the inhabitants of Caperna do not know how to do this. He acted as a judge, and by this he placed himself above others. They could not forgive him for this.)
- Dislike for the father was reflected in his daughter. Remember, what was the attitude of children towards little Assol? (It was Longren who helped Assol not to get angry at people, to remain a kind girl as before. He taught her to “be able to love.”)
- Remember what Longren Assol Assol answered her question: “Why don’t they like us?”
Longren told Assol fantastic stories about life and people. Her head was "full of wonderful dreams." She lived in a dream world.
Assol knows how to love people. She pities them, forgives them. Let us recall how Green describes the sensitive, careful attitude of the girl to all living things in the forest.
- What is the charm of Assol? What in the face of Assol attracted Egle's attention? (involuntary expectation of a beautiful, blissful fate)
TEACHER. The motif of the sun is connected with the image of the heroine and not by chance. The very name of the girl in Spanish means "toward the sun." The sun is heat, life. With the advent of Assol on the pages of the story, the style of narration also changes. It seems to acquire lyricism, sincerity, special warmth.
And what does the wise old man Egl say about the name Assol?
How do you understand the words "Beautiful unknown"? (dream, destiny)
What fate did Egl Assol prophesy?
Did the storyteller himself believe what Assol predicted?
How did Aigle describe the ship, with which a fairy tale, remembered for a long time, will blossom in “Caperna”? Pay attention to the verb "blossom".
Why are the sails scarlet and the ship white?
And now let's see what is left of this scarlet-pink brilliant palette in the words of a beggar who overheard the conversation between father and daughter? ("special red ship") What's the difference?
Let's remember how long it took Gray to choose the color of the material for the sails
Why did Gray choose it from a thousand other shades? (Scarlet is full of noble fun, royalty, a proud color; there is nothing in it that is in doubt. scarlet color- the color of the fulfillment of a dream, there can be no doubt about it.)
TEACHER. The scarlet color of Assol, Longren and Gray becomes red for the beggar and many other residents of Kaperna. Antithesis, opposition can also be carried out with the help of synonymy. She acquires such an unusual shade under Green's pen.
And how did Kapern react to this fairy tale? (They mocked, joked evilly, nicknamed "ship Assol".)
Of course, when reading the scenes, I want to stand up for a defenseless girl. And in the story there is such a hero - Arthur Gray.
Assol grew up lonely, because the children of Kaperna crossed her out of their circle of friends. And why did Grey grow up lonely? (The father removed all the servants' children from the castle, fearing that they would spoil the boy.)
What was the world of his childhood filled with? What episodes from Gray's life do you remember? Pay attention to stories with pictures. What is the significance of these episodes in the story? (The first story reflects the main thing in Gray's character - active kindness, unwillingness to endure, without interfering, someone else's pain, suffering. The second story indicates not only the boy's rich imagination, who knows how to survive what the artist depicts, but also the ability to take decisive action. This impression determined his fate. Gray decided to become a captain and became one.)
How did he imagine being a captain? Did the "restless work" on the ship correspond to the children's ideas of Arthur Gray?
So, we see that a lot of things unite young people? (Firstly, they were both deprived of communication with their peers. But this loneliness gave rise to the ability to see and appreciate the beauty of nature in the heroes. Secondly, they understand that they love all life on earth, are close to nature. Thirdly, Assol and Gray kind and selfless, hardworking, and finally, they both believe in the dream.)
TEACHER. Is the meeting of Assol and Gray accidental? (No, this kinship of souls led to the fact that the hero was able to fulfill Assol's dream, to make fantasy a reality.)
Why didn't Gray trust the innkeeper, Manners' son?
- Prove that there was nothing magical in the appearance of scarlet sails. (Gray did the whole “miracle”: he chose the right material and ordered the sails to be sewn; retelling of the episode “In the shop”, ch. 4.)
- Gray made Assol's dream a reality. Why? Was it only a penchant for fantasy that drove him? ^ What do the heroes say about miracles? (The theme of "Scarlet Sails" is clearly formulated in the words of Gray. The purpose of a person is to "do the so-called miracles with his own hands" and give them to people. A miracle here is a good deed, a noble movement of the soul, "a smile, fun, forgiveness - and the right word spoken at the right time.")
- How did they react to the appearance of scarlet sails in Kapern? (The world of Kaperna is opposed to the world of Assol and Longren. The Kaperns lived their rough, vulgar life, guided by primitive philistine "common sense." They were alien to the spiritual subtlety, sensitivity with which Longren treated his daughter, to her faith in the future appearance of a ship with scarlet sails: “And about scarlet sails, think like me: you will have scarlet sails." Therefore, in the last final scene, the author once again emphasizes the defeat of the village (ordinary vulgarity, rudeness) before the dream world. The author once again convinces us of the need to believe in a miracle .)
- What words-images does the author include in the description of scarlet sails? What are your associations? (The color of deep joy, a symbol of love, dream sails, romance, expectation, creativity, a miracle realized, a metaphor for hope, the triumph of happiness).
- Can we worry about the future of our heroes? Are they happy?
TEACHER. According to Green, there is one important property of a person that can change his life - this is the amazing power of imagination. A person is given an amazing opportunity to fantasize, dream, create. Having traveled through the country of Green's dreams, you begin to understand that a person does not die in human memory when he opens his heart to others. And these others follow the dream, imbued with faith, hope, love.
What are the scarlet sails a symbol of? (a symbol of dreams and love, fulfillment of desire)
TEACHER. Perhaps this book will make you suddenly wish happiness as fiercely and passionately as Assol wished for it and fill you with the expectation of a miracle. Perhaps you would like to build a ship for someone and sail under scarlet sails like Gray. Green forever gave us this expectation and this aspiration, and he himself remained faithful to his world until the end of his days. It is this fidelity, which does not leave with the years, that receives its reward. If you open your heart to this world, you will believe that “sails will fly over the scarlet ocean, and the violin will sing over the ocean.”
Reflection
Do you need a magic wand to create a miracle?
Why is Scarlet Sails called a fairy tale that comes true?
Homework. Answer the questions:
"What is the strength of this book?"
“From this book I learned one truth…”
How many people believe in miracles? There is an opinion that miracles happen only in children's fairy tales. Growing up, people often lose the ability to believe in a miracle, to be surprised at it. And very few believe in their ability to do miracles with their own hands. Fortunately, with the heroes of A. Green's fairy tale "Scarlet Sails", everything happened quite differently.
Since childhood, the main character of the story, Assol, was different from other children. It was difficult for her to find friends, she so wanted to believe in a miracle, in a fairy tale. Not meeting the understanding of others, Assol often plunged into an illusory, romantic world where real knights live and dreams come true. She believed with all her heart old Egle, who once said that an unusual and happy future awaited her.
They say that if you really want something, it will definitely come true. Assol had no doubt that her dream of a beautiful stranger who would sail for her under the scarlet Prussians would come true. It is not surprising that such a strong dream found its talented performer. Gray is one of those people who believe in themselves, believe in a dream and know that a person's happiness lies in his own hands. The young traveler learned about Assol's dream and immediately realized that he and the girl were kindred spirits. Therefore, without much hesitation, he began to realize the dream of a young beauty in order to make her happy.
Was Gray's act a miracle? For Assol, of course, there was. Of course, a young maiden's heart cannot but be shaken by such a sight as a beautiful ship under scarlet sails. And Gray turned out to be not only a romantic, but also a man of action, capable of real courageous deeds.
Someone may say that "Scarlet Sails" is nothing more than a beautiful fairy tale, and someone will see it as a guide to action. In fact, creating miracles with your own hands is not at all difficult, you just need to want to make the world a little more beautiful and find a person who can see this miracle. It is amazing that some people are so mired in everyday life that even in the most wonderful miracle they will not see anything out of the ordinary. And for someone, every new day brings small miracles: a gentle pink dawn, and a cup of fragrant herbal tea, and a kitten snuggling comfortably near the radiator ...
I think the story-tale "Scarlet Sails" teaches the reader to enjoy the wonderful things that surround us in everyday life, and to believe in their dreams. And, of course, it is important to remember that each of us is able to make a miracle with our own hands for the joy of others.

But he, as it were, transfers the right to become an author to Ivan Petrovich Belkin, which is why he calls his works, which includes The Shot, Belkin's Tales.

- When we read an interesting story or story, we think about whether the hero we liked really lived. Or maybe the writer came up with it? In a work of art, this is often the case. Usually the author observes life and people for a long time before the story about which he will write is born. He endows his hero with such qualities that he saw in real people. He generalizes the actions, manner of dressing and speaking in the behavior, appearance and speech of his fictional characters. Author […]
- A “public” comedy with a social clash between the “past century” and the “present century” is called the comedy of A.S. Griboyedov "Woe from Wit". And it is built in such a way that only Chatsky speaks about the progressive ideas of transforming society, striving for spirituality, about a new morality. Using his example, the author shows readers how difficult it is to bring new ideas into the world that are not understood and accepted by a society that has become ossified in its views. Anyone who starts doing this is doomed to loneliness. Alexander Andreevich […]
- “We always only remember about happiness. And happiness is everywhere ... ”- Ivan Bunin once said, who was not only a poet, but also a wonderful prose writer. In his collection there are many stories and novellas, the motives of which were borrowed a little later by Kuprin and Chekhov. This is the eternal problem of happiness, which is reflected in the work of these three writers. The heroes of Bunin's stories do not think that happiness can be found in everything around. Each story has an unhappy ending that leaves the reader […]
- In the story "Poor Lisa" Nikolai Mikhailovich Karamzin raises the theme of the love of a simple girl for a janitor. The idea of the story is that you can not trust and trust anyone but yourself. In the story, one can single out the problem of love, because all the events that took place were due to Lisa's love and Erast's passion. The main character of the story is Lisa. In appearance, she was of rare beauty. The girl was hardworking, gentle, vulnerable, kind. But, despite her vulnerability, she never showed her longing, but seemed […]
- In the 1850s-1860s. the best works of Tyutchev's love lyrics are created, stunning with psychological truth in revealing human experiences. F. I. Tyutchev is a poet of sublime love. A special place in the poet's work is occupied by a cycle of poems dedicated to E. A. Denisyeva. The poet's love was dramatic. The lovers could not be together, and therefore love is perceived by Tyutchev not as happiness, but as a fatal passion that brings grief. Tyutchev is not a singer of ideal love - he, like Nekrasov, writes about her "prose" and about his […]

The beauty! The soul rejoices, ”the local self-taught mechanic Kuligin admires. Pictures of endless distances, echoed in a lyrical song.

- The combination of music and poetry gave rise in the Middle Ages to such a genre as the ballad. Russian romanticism, which arose in the first half of the 19th century, turned to this genre and introduced a lot of new things into it. Batiushkov and Zhukovsky became major romantic poets in Russian literature. In their work, they turned to the experience of European poets, whose romanticism was in its heyday. An outstanding man of his era, V. A. Zhukovsky gave his romantic poems a deeply personal character. He believed that “life and poetry are […]

Broken destinies, orphaned children, constant denunciations - thinking people could not remain indifferent. B. Pasternak, M. Bulgakov, E. Zamyatin, V. Shalamov, M. Sholokhov, A. Solzhenitsyn and many others wrote about what is happening and how […]
- At the lesson of literature, we got acquainted with the work of N.V. Gogol "Dead Souls". This poem has become very popular. The work was repeatedly filmed both in the Soviet Union and in modern Russia. Also, the names of the main characters became symbolic: Plyushkin - a symbol of stinginess and storage of unnecessary things, Sobakevich - an uncouth person, Manilovism - immersion in dreams that have no connection with reality. Some phrases have become catchphrases. The main character of the poem is Chichikov. […]
- It would be unfair to limit the entire range of problems in Saltykov-Shchedrin's fairy tales to a description of the confrontation between peasants and landlords and the inactivity of the intelligentsia. Being on public service, the author had the opportunity to get to know the so-called masters of life, whose images found their place in his fairy tales. Examples of these are "The Poor Wolf", "The Tale of the Toothy Pike", etc. There are two sides to them - those who are oppressed and oppressed, and those who are oppressed and oppressed. We are accustomed to certain […]

Acquaintance with Taras Bulba takes place in a peaceful home environment. His sons, Ostap and Andriy, have just returned from school. They are a special pride of Taras. Bulba believes that the spiritual education that his sons received is only a small part of what a young man needs. "It's all rubbish, what they stuff […]
- Everyone has to go through a stage of growing up in their life. For some, it passes gradually, imperceptibly, day after day. Someone grows up quickly, faced with life's difficulties. The hero of V. Astafiev's story "Vasyutkino Lake" had to grow up in a few days, because he was alone with the taiga. The boy took invaluable lessons from these days, showing courage, courage and quick wit. In this story, the author describes how main character, a teenager, coped with difficulties, […]
- Former student Rodion Romanovich Raskolnikov is the protagonist of Crime and Punishment, one of the most famous novels by Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky. The surname of this character tells the reader a lot: Rodion Romanovich is a man with a split consciousness.
