"Eugene Onegin"- a novel in verse, written in 1823-1831, one of the most significant works of Russian literature.
"Eugene Onegin" history of creation
Pushkin worked on this novel for over seven years, from 1823 to 1831. The novel was, according to the poet, "the fruit" of "the mind, cold observations and the heart of sorrowful remarks." Pushkin called the work on it a feat - of all his creative heritage, only Boris Godunov he described with the same word. In the work, against a wide background of pictures of Russian life, the dramatic fate of the best people of the noble intelligentsia is shown.
Pushkin began work on Onegin in May 1823 in Chisinau, during his exile. The author abandoned romanticism as the leading creative method and began to write a realistic novel in verse, although the influence of romanticism is still noticeable in the first chapters. Initially, it was assumed that the novel in verse would consist of 9 chapters, but later Pushkin reworked its structure, leaving only 8 chapters. He excluded the chapter "Onegin's Journey" from the main text of the work, including its fragments as an appendix to the main text. There was a fragment of this chapter, where, according to some sources, it was described how Onegin sees military settlements near the Odessa pier, and then there were remarks and judgments, in some places in an excessively harsh tone. Fearing possible persecution by the authorities, Pushkin destroyed this fragment of Onegin's Journey.
The novel covers events from 1819 to 1825: from the foreign campaigns of the Russian army after the defeat of Napoleon to the Decembrist uprising. These were the years of the development of Russian society, during the reign of Alexander I. The plot of the novel is simple and well known, in the center of it is a love story. In general, the events of the first quarter of the 19th century were reflected in the novel "Eugene Onegin", that is, the time of creation and the time of the novel approximately coincide.
Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin created a novel in verse similar to Lord Byron's poem Don Juan. Having defined the novel as a “collection of motley chapters”, Pushkin singles out one of the features of this work: the novel is, as it were, “opened” in time (each chapter could be the last, but it can also have a continuation), thereby drawing readers’ attention to the independence and integrity of each chapter. The novel became truly an encyclopedia of Russian life in the 1820s, since the breadth of the topics covered in it, the detail of everyday life, the multi-plot composition, the depth of the description of the characters' characters still reliably demonstrate to readers the features of the life of that era.
This is what gave grounds to V. G. Belinsky in his article "Eugene Onegin" to conclude:
"Onegin can be called an encyclopedia of Russian life and an eminently folk work."
From the novel, as well as from the encyclopedia, you can learn almost everything about the era: about how they dressed, and what was in fashion, what people valued most, what they talked about, what interests they lived. "Eugene Onegin" reflected the whole of Russian life. Briefly, but quite clearly, the author showed the fortress village, the lordly Moscow, the secular St. Petersburg. Pushkin truthfully depicted the environment in which the main characters of his novel live - Tatyana Larina and Eugene Onegin, reproduced the atmosphere of the city noble salons in which Onegin spent his youth.
"Eugene Onegin"(1823-1831) - a novel in verse by Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin, one of the most significant works of Russian literature.
History of creation
Pushkin worked on the novel for over seven years. The novel was, according to Pushkin, "the fruit of the mind of cold observations and the heart of sad remarks." Pushkin called the work on it a feat - of all his creative heritage, only Boris Godunov he described with the same word. Against the broad background of pictures of Russian life, the dramatic fate of the best people of the noble intelligentsia is shown.
Pushkin began work on Onegin in 1823, during his southern exile. The author abandoned romanticism as the leading creative method and began to write a realistic novel in verse, although the influence of romanticism is still noticeable in the first chapters. Initially, it was assumed that the novel in verse would consist of 9 chapters, but later Pushkin reworked its structure, leaving only 8 chapters. He excluded from the work the chapter "Onegin's Journey", which he included as an appendix. After that, the tenth chapter of the novel was written, which is an encrypted chronicle from the life of future Decembrists.
The novel was published in verse in separate chapters, and the release of each chapter became a big event in modern literature. In 1831 the novel in verse was finished and in 1833 it was published. It covers events from 1819 to 1825: from the foreign campaigns of the Russian army after the defeat of Napoleon to the Decembrist uprising. These were the years of the development of Russian society, during the reign of Tsar Alexander I. The plot of the novel is simple and well known. At the center of the novel is a love affair. And the main problem is the eternal problem of feeling and duty. The novel "Eugene Onegin" reflected the events of the first quarter of the 19th century, that is, the time of creation and the time of the novel approximately coincide. Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin created a novel in verse like Byron's poem Don Juan. Having defined the novel as “a collection of motley chapters”, Pushkin emphasizes one of the features of this work: the novel is, as it were, “opened” in time, each chapter could be the last, but it can also have a continuation. And thus the reader draws attention to the independence of each chapter of the novel. The novel has become an encyclopedia of Russian life in the 20s of the century before last, since the breadth of the novel shows readers the whole reality of Russian life, as well as the multi-plot and description of different eras. This is what gave grounds to V. G. Belinsky in his article "Eugene Onegin" to conclude:
“Onegin can be called an encyclopedia of Russian life and an eminently folk work.”
In the novel, as in the encyclopedia, you can learn everything about the era: how they dressed and what was in fashion, what people valued most, what they talked about, what interests they lived. "Eugene Onegin" reflected the whole of Russian life. Briefly, but quite clearly, the author showed the serf village, lordly Moscow, secular Petersburg. Pushkin truthfully portrayed the environment in which the main characters of his novel live - Tatyana Larina and Eugene Onegin. The author reproduced the atmosphere of the city noble salons, in which Onegin spent his youth.
Plot
The novel begins with a squeamish speech by the young nobleman Eugene Onegin, dedicated to the illness of his uncle, which forced him to leave St. Petersburg and go to the patient's bed in the hope of becoming the heir to the dying. The narrative itself is conducted on behalf of the nameless author, who introduced himself as a good friend of Onegin. Having marked the plot in this way, the author devotes the first chapter to the story of the origin, family, life of his hero before receiving news of the illness of a relative.
Eugene was born "on the banks of the Neva", that is, in St. Petersburg, in the family of a typical nobleman of his time -
“Having served excellently - nobly, His father lived with debts. Gave three balls annually And finally squandered. The son of such a father received a typical upbringing - first the governess Madame, then the French tutor, who did not bother his pupil with an abundance of sciences. Here Pushkin emphasizes that the upbringing of Yevgeny from childhood was carried out by strangers for him, besides foreigners.
Onegin's life in St. Petersburg was full of love affairs and secular amusements, but now he will be bored in the countryside. Upon arrival, it turns out that the uncle has died, and Eugene has become his heir. Onegin settles in the village, and soon the blues really take possession of him.
Onegin's neighbor turns out to be eighteen-year-old Vladimir Lensky, a romantic poet, who came from Germany. Lensky and Onegin converge. Lensky is in love with Olga Larina, the daughter of a landowner. Her thoughtful sister Tatyana does not look like the always cheerful Olga. Having met Onegin, Tatyana falls in love with him and writes him a letter. However, Onegin rejects her: he is not looking for a quiet family life. Lensky and Onegin are invited to the Larins. Onegin is not happy about this invitation, but Lensky persuades him to go.
"[...] He pouted and, indignantly, swore to infuriate Lensky, And to take revenge in order." At a dinner at the Larins', Onegin, in order to make Lensky jealous, suddenly begins courting Olga. Lensky challenges him to a duel. The duel ends with the death of Lensky, and Onegin leaves the village.
Two years later, he appears in St. Petersburg and meets Tatyana. She is an important lady, the wife of a prince. Onegin burned with love for her, but this time he was already rejected, despite the fact that Tatyana also loves him, but wants to remain faithful to her husband.

Characters
- Eugene Onegin- the prototype Pyotr Chaadaev, a friend of Pushkin, is named by Pushkin himself in the first chapter. Onegin's story is reminiscent of Chaadaev's life. An important influence on the image of Onegin had Lord Byron and his "Byron Heroes", Don Juan and Childe Harold, who are also mentioned more than once by Pushkin himself.
- Tatyana Larina- the prototype of Avdotya (Dunya) Norova, Chaadaev's girlfriend. Dunya herself is mentioned in the second chapter, and at the end of the last chapter, Pushkin expresses his grief over her untimely death. Due to the death of Dunya at the end of the novel, Anna Kern, Pushkin's lover, acts as the prototype of the princess, the matured and transformed Tatyana. She, Anna Kern, was the prototype of Anna Kerenina. Although Leo Tolstoy wrote off the appearance of Anna Karenina from Pushkin's eldest daughter, Maria Hartung, the name and history are very close to Anna Kern. So, through the story of Anna Kern, Tolstoy's novel "Anna Karenina" is a continuation of the novel "Eugene Onegin".
- Olga Larina, her sister is a generalized image of a typical heroine of a popular novel; beautiful in appearance, but devoid of deep content.
- Vladimir Lensky- Pushkin himself, or rather his idealized image.
- nanny Tatiana- probable prototype - Yakovleva Arina Rodionovna, Pushkin's nanny
- Zaretsky, duelist - among the prototypes they called Fyodor Tolstoy-American
- Tatyana Larina's husband, not named in the novel, "important general", General Kern, Anna Kern's husband.
- Author of the work- Pushkin himself. He constantly intervenes in the course of the story, reminds of himself, makes friends with Onegin, in his lyrical digressions shares with the reader his reflections on a variety of life issues, and expresses his ideological position.
The novel also mentions the father - Dmitry Larin - and the mother of Tatyana and Olga; "Princess Alina" - the Moscow cousin of Tatyana Larina's mother; uncle Onegin; a number of comical images of provincial landowners (Gvozdin, Flyanov, "Skotinins, a gray-haired couple", "fat Pustyakov", etc.); Petersburg and Moscow light.
The images of provincial landlords are mainly of literary origin. So, the image of the Skotinins refers to Fonvizin's comedy "Undergrowth", Buyanov is the hero of the poem "Dangerous Neighbor" (1810-1811) by V. L. Pushkin. “Among the guests, there were also “important Kirin”, “Lazorkina - a widow-vostrushka”, “fat Pustyakov” was replaced by “fat Tumakov”, Pustyakov was called “skinny”, Petushkov was a “retired clerk”.
Poetic Features
The novel is written in a special "Onegin stanza". Each such stanza consists of 14 lines of iambic tetrameter.
The first four lines rhyme crosswise, the lines from the fifth to the eighth - in pairs, the lines from the ninth to the twelfth are connected by a ring rhyme. The remaining 2 lines of the stanza rhyme with each other.
The idea of the work and its embodiment in the novel "Eugene Onegin"
"Eugene Onegin" is a novel with a unique creative destiny. Especially for this work, A. S. Pushkin came up with a special stanza that had not previously been seen in world poetry: 14 lines of three quatrains with cross, adjacent, ring rhymes and a final couplet. Used in this novel, she received the name "Onegin".
The exact dates for the creation of the work are known: the beginning of work - May 9, 1823 in the southern exile, the end of the novel - September 25, 1830 In Boldin autumn. In total, work on this work continued for seven years, but even after 1830 the author made changes to the novel: in 1831, the last, eighth, chapter was rewritten, and Onegin's letter to Tatiana was also written.
The original intent of the novel has changed significantly. The plan for writing "Eugene Onegin", compiled and written down by Pushkin, initially included nine chapters, divided by the author into three parts.
The first part consisted of 3 chapters-songs: Spleen, Poet, Young lady (which corresponded to chapters 1, 2, 3 of the novel in the final version). The second part included 3 chapters-songs called Village, Name Day, Duel (which is identical to chapters 4, 5, 6 of the printed novel). The third part, completing the novel, included 3 chapters: Moscow (Song VII), Wandering (Song VIII), Great Light (Song IX).
Ultimately, Pushkin, adhering to his plan, wrote two parts, placing excerpts from Chapter VIII in an appendix to the novel and calling it Onegin's Journey. As a result, chapter IX of the novel became the eighth. It is also known that Pushkin conceived and wrote Chapter X on the emergence of secret Decembrist societies in Russia, but then burned it. Only seventeen incomplete stanzas remain of it. Confirming this idea of the author, our great classic in 1829, a year before the end of the novel, said that the main character must either die in the Caucasus or become a Decembrist.
"Eugene Onegin" is the first realistic novel in Russian literature. The very genre of this realistic work is original, which the poet himself in a letter to P.A. Vyazemsky called "a novel in verse." This genre allowed the author to combine the epic depiction of life with deep lyricism, the expression of the feelings and thoughts of the poet himself. A.S. Pushkin created a unique novel, which in form resembles a casual conversation with the reader.
Such a manner of presentation in the novel allowed Pushkin to comprehensively show the life and spiritual searches of the hero of his novel as a typical representative of the Russian noble intelligentsia of the 20s. XIX century. The action of the novel includes the period from 1819 to 1825, showing a picture of the life of the nobility and the common people in the first half of the 19th century in the capitals and provinces on the eve of the Decembrist uprising of 1825. A.S. Pushkin reproduced in this novel the spiritual atmosphere of society, in which a type of nobleman was born who shared the views of the Decembrists and joined the uprising.

REVIEW OF THE CONTENT OF THE NOVEL.
HISTORY OF CREATION. CONCEPT AND COMPOSITION.
"ONEGINSKAYA" STROPHE
Goals: give a general description of the novel, explain the concept of "Onegin" stanza; to acquaint with the opinions of critics about the novel.
During the classes
I. Work on the topic of the lesson.
1. Introductory speech of the teacher.
1) A novel, "... in which the century was reflected ...".
We have come to the pinnacle of Pushkin's poetic creation - the novel in verse "Eugene Onegin".
Did the Eugene Onegin genre surprise you? WITH contemporaries habitually called it a poem. But for Pushkin "Onegin" is a novel! Can't guess why?
But what is "romance"? Z mind you: it is remarkable not so much for its volume as ... Maybe someone will continue?
Are there any origins of the novel ... in the lyrics? Novel - this is, first of all, the deepest and most comprehensive penetration into the "I" of the hero, into his character, the innermost secrets of the personality - what is called psychologism.
Poetry came close to the creation of the novel. We are accustomed to the prose novel, but it turns out that it was preceded by a poetic one. It turns out that prose is much more complicated!
2) The art of the stanza.
In a letter to P.A. Vyazemsky, whose line opens Chapter I, Pushkin, having barely started Onegin, reported: “I am not writing a novel, but a novel in verse - a diabolical difference!” What does it mean? Is the novel difficult for the writer?.. Or for the reader? How did you feel about the upcoming reading? Were you afraid? Thought it would be boring, tiring? And in fact, throughout the story - eight chapters! - the same size. Define it. Yes, it's iambic 4-foot.
It would seem, what a monotony of rhythm, intonation. But in reality, the lines of the novel sound amazingly diverse, unlike. This is the mystery of Pushkin's poems! How are the chapters structured? They are written in stanzas. Is it easy to create such a lengthy (14 lines!) stanza, which received the name "Onegin"? So far, no poet has been able to repeat it. What is her secret? Why does it give such liveliness and flexibility, dynamics and expressiveness to poetic narration, and why does Pushkin's 4-foot iambic sound so diverse?
2. Reading the article "In the creative laboratory" in the reader, p. 242.
3. Studying the style of the novel.
1) Reading and analysis of Chapter I.
Let's read the first chapter again.
Reading the text by a teacher or a trained student with the words "Not thinking to amuse the proud light ...".
How would you title these lines? "Introduction"? "Prologue"? "Zachin"? IN To some extent, this is all true. But then what is this appeal: “I wish I to present to you / Z a pledge worthy of you ... ": Ch does that mean it's a 2nd person pronoun? No, this is not an ordinary "prologue", not a "beginning", but dedication!
Have you met the works that the author dedicated to someone, and do you understand how he entered literaturecustom of initiation? Why did Pushkin dedicate Onegin to "someone"? D but, the poet explains it right away: “Loving the attention of friendship,” and how Pushkin knew how to be friends (maybe like no other!), It is well known. But the question is: who was awarded this honor - to be the "addressee" of Pushkin's novel? Delvig, Kuchelbecker, Zhukovsky, Vyazemsky? The list of all Pushkin's friends would be very extensive. But here's what's interesting: the poet does not name the person to whom the novel is dedicated. Why? Perhaps, for Pushkin, initiation was a "guarantee of friendship" not related to a specific person?
What was the novel for Pushkin, how did he write (strive to write!) its chapters? And why did the “collection of motley chapters” in the “dedication” stretch over several lines?
Who did you feel, hear, discover in the first chapter? Is it only the hero of the novel? No, we feel and hear the Author, his presence in the novel. Often the poet's confession pushes the hero aside.
Do you agree with the great Russian critic V. G. Belinsky, perhaps the most insightful reader, who noted that “Eugene Onegin” is “Pushkin’s most sincere creation”, “the favorite child of his imagination”?
2) This "strange" Onegin.
Why did the poet choose the hero's monologue for stanza I?
- Imagine in Onegin's place one of his peers, Molchalin for example ... How would he feel on the way to his dying uncle?
- Onegin and his "environment": how did the poet capture them?
- How does Pushkin's narrative change in the lines about the attitude of "light" to Onegin?
- What is hidden in the keyword "pedant", and even with the union "but"?
- Is the image of Onegin static in Chapter I, or does the hero of the novel change?
Yes, something strange is happening to him, but what? Why is the "dandy" Onegin, an impeccable secular youth, becoming ... unrecognizable?
- What words would you convey the author's "sympathy" to Onegin in Chapter I?(“But was my Eugene happy? ..”)
- What is the lexical originality of Chapter I? What words does she use?(Homer, Theocritus, Juvenal, Adam Smith.)
Let's, together with the heroine of the novel, Tatyana, take the risk of going to Onegin's office (alas, in the absence of the owner).
Reading XIX, XXII stanzas of the seventh chapter.
- Compare the stanzas of chapters I and VII. Did the world of Onegin open up to you?
- Is Onegin alone in Pushkin's lines? Why does the Author appear next to him every now and then?
– And in what kind of “relationship” are the Author and his hero? Compare them.
- How are the "Onegin stanzas" and the author's confession written?
Imagine: in the novel there would be no stanzas that we call “lyrical”, it would be “easier” for us to follow Onegin’s feelings and activities, nothing would distract from the plot ... Would the novel win?
"Dedication" is a kind of key to the poetic world of the novel, its reading. We note the lyricism and irony of Chapter I, its dialogism, the author's casual conversation with the reader about the hero and about himself. And the reader becomes the poet’s unwitting “interlocutor”, understands that Onegin is a tragic character, feels the hero’s brokenness in the piercing psychological details (“languishing with spiritual emptiness ...”) and the discontinuity of the poetic narrative (“I read, read, but all to no avail ...”). We are amazed at the harmony, the ideality of Pushkin's "I", sounding in the ardor of confessions, the innocence of lyricism, the rhythmic-intonational and syntactic unity of the stanza ("Magic land. There in the old days ...", "Brilliant, half-air ...", "I remember the sea before a thunderstorm ...").
4. Working with textbook materials.
- WITH compare the views of Belinsky and Pisarev on the novel (the controversy is connected with the image of Onegin). Whose position is closer and more understandable to you, and why does the author, being the lyrical hero of the novel, show his spiritual kinship with Onegin?
II. Summary of the lesson.
Homework:read an article in the textbook-reader "Realism" (p. 214); task in rows: “My idea of: 1) Lensky; 2) Tatyana; 3) Onegin.
Grade 9 Lesson 2
IMAGES OF THE MAIN CHARACTERS OF THE NOVEL
"EUGENE ONEGIN". MAIN STORY LINE AND LYRICAL DIRECTIONS.
Goals: to acquaint with the system of images of the novel, the features of the plot; teach text processing.
During the classes
I. Implementation of homework.
1. Conversation.
- What is the role of non-plot and secondary characters?
– What allows the author to combine them all in one novel?(Onegin, after whom the novel is named, is the main, central character. This is unconditional, but he, like a magnet, attracts other, seemingly minor, heroes who help reveal the character of the “spiritual thirst” of the tormented Eugene. All these fates and characters created a unique image - the image of Russian society in the first quarter of the 19th century.)
2. Students' speeches with citation (homework in rows).
II. Work on the topic of the lesson.
The dramatic fates of the heroes of the novel are a reflection of the fates of the best people of Pushkin's time.
- invisibly present always and everywhere;
- takes part in the fate of the heroes;
- shares his thoughts and feelings with readers;
- talks about the manners and morals of society.
1. Analysis of the central images of the novel.
1) Lensky.
- Why are the lines about the arrival of Lensky so significant? What is his role in the novel?
Why does Pushkin introduce Vladimir Lensky into the novel?
- Lensky is a poet. How did Pushkin give us the work of a young poet?
- Try to define the genre of "Lensky's poems."
– Why does the author of the novel at first speak ironically not only about Lensky’s work, but also about romanticism in general: “So he wrote darkly and sluggishly, what we call romanticism ...” (after all, until recently Pushkin himself was an orthodox romantic!), And then he denies romanticism to Lensky’s poems, simultaneously ironically over the naive idea of his contemporaries about romantic poetry (“Although there is not a little romanticism / H I see; so what's in it for us?")?
2) Onegin is a problematic hero, a “hero of time”.
- His personality was formed in the St. Petersburg secular environment. In Chapter I, we already learned from the prehistory the main social factors that determined the character of Onegin: the upbringing of children from the upper strata of the nobility, accepted in those years, teaching “something and somehow”, the first steps in the world, the experience of a “monotonous and motley” life for 8 years.
In his early youth, Onegin is "a good fellow, like you and me, like the whole world."
His character is shown in motion, in development. Already in Chapter I, we see a turning point in his fate: he was able to abandon the stereotypes of secular behavior, from the noisy, but internally empty "ritual of life."
- Remember the seclusion of Onegin: his undeclared conflict with the high society in Chapter I and with the society of village landowners - in Chapters II-VI.
- Find the words that you would say about Onegin and Lensky, comparing them, and make a dictionary of antonyms:
Onegin Lensky
… …
… …
- Who benefits from the antithesis: Onegin - Lensky? How do we see Lensky and Onegin in friendship? Onegin did not stand the test of friendship. The reason is his inability to "live by feeling".
This is how Pushkin describes his state before the duel:
He could find feelings
Don't bristle like a beast...
At Tatyana's name day, he also showed himself to be a "ball of prejudice", deaf to the voice of his own heart and to Lensky's feelings. Only after the murder of Lensky did Onegin take possession of the "anguish of heartfelt remorse."
- And how did Onegin show himself in his relationship with Tatyana?
You can’t order your heart, you can’t blame the hero for not responding to Tatyana’s love. But as a noble and spiritually subtle person, he was able to see in the “maiden in love” genuine and sincere feelings, lively, and not bookish passions. However, the meaning of love is exhausted for him by the "science of tender passion" or the "home circle" that limits the freedom of man. And in love, he listens not to the voice of his heart, but to the voice of reason, does not believe in love, is not yet capable of falling in love (p. 168 of the reader).
And only tragedy (the death of Lensky) was able to open to him a previously inaccessible world of feelings.
- What is the significance of the meeting of Tatyana and Onegin in St. Petersburg?
This is a new stage in the spiritual development of the hero: he was transformed, having experienced a real feeling for the first time, but it turned out to be a love drama for him; now Tatyana cannot (without violating her marital duty) respond to his belated love.
Now his mind is defeated, he loves, "mind not listening to strict penalties." He "almost lost his mind or became a poet ..."
It is love and friendship, according to Pushkin, that a person is tested, it is they who reveal the richness of the soul or its emptiness.
3) "Tatiana's dear ideal ...".
- Are Larina's sisters needed in the novel? How are the characters included in the novel?
Why do they make such a contrasting impression? Moreover, each of them can win over, fall in love with the reader or, on the contrary, in some way warp ...
- Why is Olga “sweet” for some, while others could not get rid of an ironic smile when reading about her?
- What, perhaps, was the attitude of the poet towards Olga with particular sharpness?
– Is Olga necessary in the novel?
- How does Tatyana enter the novel?
- In what confession is Pushkin's attitude towards Tatyana expressed? What is this apology for? Pardon me : I love so much…"? In what line will this Pushkin's love for the heroine of the novel resonate?
- "Tatiana's dear ideal ...". Is the image of Tatyana really ideal?
- Why are the lines dedicated to Tatyana so fascinating? Can they be set to music?
- P. I. Tchaikovsky, creating the opera "Eugene Onegin", originally intended to name it after the heroine of the novel - "Tatyana Larina", designating the genre of his work as "lyrical scenes"; is it justified?
- Tatyana amazed and even scared her contemporaries with her "strangeness". And you?
- What is the world of Tatyana? How does the poet finish it in the last chapters of the novel? Is it by chance that "Tatyana has a wonderful dream"? Why is this dream so scary? Reread the third stanza of Chapter V:
But maybe this kind
The pictures won't attract you...
Why this retreat?
- Remember the “Moscow” pages of the seventh chapter: is it by chance that Tatyana ends up in Moscow, is it only the “bride fair” that explains her appearance in the capital? And why exactly on these pages we hear: “Moscow! How much in this sound ... "?
– And which pages dedicated to the poet’s favorite heroine are especially captivating?
Reading by heart "Letters of Tatyana" by a trained student.
What is the most amazing thing about him?
- Do the intonation, the meaning of the Pushkin novel change after Tatiana's confession?
- What is the tragedy of the image of Tatyana?
In the loneliness of the heroine and the doom of her romantic love. Tatyana's letter is an act of fearlessness and despair of love, it is the embodiment of the heroine's "ideality".
What about Onegin's Letter? Which of his lines shocked you the most?
- Compare two letters: which one is more tragic, poetically stronger?
- The apotheosis of the image of Tatyana (pp. 171-174 of the textbook). How did the poet convey the changes in her? How do you explain them?
- Well - Tatyana, "legislator of the hall", obeyed the "light"?
- Why is the monologue “And to me, Onegin, this splendor ...” (p. 173, stanza XLVI) so shocking. Why are these lines so touching, remain in memory?
The image of Tatyana is the pinnacle of the psychological realism of Pushkin's poetry. And the novel itself begins the history of the Russian realistic novel.
