« Winter evening" Alexander Pushkin
The storm covers the sky with darkness,
Whirling snow whirlwinds;
Then, like a beast, she will howl,
Then he will cry like a child,
Then on the dilapidated roof
Suddenly the straw will rustle,
The way a belated traveler
There will be a knock on our window.Our ramshackle shack
And sad and dark.
What are you doing, my old lady?
Silent at the window?
Or howling storms
You, my friend, are tired,
Or dozing under the buzzing
Your spindle?Let's have a drink, good friend
My poor youth
Let's drink from grief; where is the mug?
The heart will be more cheerful.
Sing me a song like a tit
She lived quietly across the sea;
Sing me a song like a maiden
I went to get water in the morning.The storm covers the sky with darkness,
Whirling snow whirlwinds;
Then, like a beast, she will howl,
She will cry like a child.
Let's have a drink, good friend
My poor youth
Let's drink from grief: where is the mug?
The heart will be more cheerful.
Analysis of Pushkin’s poem “Winter Evening”
The period to which the writing of the poem “Winter Evening” dates back to is one of the most difficult in the life of Alexander Pushkin. In 1824, the poet achieved his return from southern exile, but did not suspect that an even more serious test awaited him. Instead of Moscow and St. Petersburg, Pushkin was allowed to live in the family estate Mikhailovskoye, where his entire family was at that time. However, the most terrible blow awaited the poet when it turned out that his father had decided to take over the functions of the overseer. It was Sergei Lvovich Pushkin who checked all his son’s correspondence and controlled his every step. Moreover, he constantly provoked the poet in the hope that a major family quarrel in front of witnesses, it will give him the opportunity to put his son in prison. Such strained and complex relationships with the family, which actually betrayed the poet, forced Pushkin to leave Mikhailovskoye several times under various plausible pretexts and stay for long periods on neighboring estates.
The situation defused only towards the end of autumn, when Pushkin’s parents nevertheless decided to leave Mikhailovskoye and returned to Moscow. A few months later, in the winter of 1825, the poet wrote his famous poem“Winter Evening”, in the lines of which you can catch shades of hopelessness and relief, melancholy and hope for a better life at the same time.
This work begins with a very vivid and figurative description of a snow storm, which “covers the sky with darkness,” as if cutting off the poet from everything outside world. This is exactly how Pushkin feels under house arrest in Mikhailovsky, which he can leave only after agreement with the supervisory department, and even then not for long. However, driven to despair by forced confinement and loneliness, the poet perceives the storm as an unexpected guest, who sometimes cries like a child, sometimes howls like a wild animal, rustles straw on the roof and knocks on the window like a belated traveler.
However, the poet is not alone on the family estate. Next to him is his beloved nanny and nurse, Arina Rodionovna, who continues to take care of her pupil with the same devotion and selflessness. Her company brightens up the gray winter days of the poet, who notices every little detail in the appearance of his confidante, calling her “my old lady.” Pushkin understands that the nanny treats him like her own son, so she worries about his fate and tries to help the poet with wise advice. He likes to listen to her songs and watch the spindle deftly sliding in the hands of this no longer young woman. But the dull winter landscape outside the window and the snow storm, so similar to the storm in the poet’s soul, do not allow him to fully enjoy this idyll, for which he has to pay with his own freedom. To somehow appease heartache, the author addresses the nanny with the words: “Let’s have a drink, good friend of my poor youth.” The poet sincerely believes that this “will make the heart happier” and all everyday troubles will be left behind.
It is difficult to say to what extent this statement was fair, but it is known that in 1826, after the new Emperor Nicholas I promised the poet his patronage, Pushkin voluntarily returned to Mikhailovskoye, where he lived for another month, enjoying the peace, quiet and autumn landscape outside the window. Rural life clearly benefited the poet; he became more restrained and patient, and also began to take his own creativity more seriously and devote much more time to it. When the poet needed solitude, he did not have to think long about where to go. After his exile, Pushkin visited Mikhailovskoye several times, admitting that his heart remained forever in this dilapidated family estate, where he was always a welcome guest and could count on the support of the person closest to him - his nanny Arina Rodionovna.

Winter evening
The storm covers the sky with darkness,
Whirling snow whirlwinds;
Then, like a beast, she will howl,
Then he will cry like a child,
Then on the dilapidated roof
Suddenly the straw will rustle,
The way a belated traveler
There will be a knock on our window.
Our ramshackle shack
And sad and dark.
What are you doing, my old lady?
Silent at the window?
Or howling storms
You, my friend, are tired,
Or dozing under the buzzing
Your spindle?
Let's have a drink, good friend
My poor youth
Let's drink from grief; where is the mug?
The heart will be more cheerful.
Sing me a song like a tit
She lived quietly across the sea;
Sing me a song like a maiden
I went to get water in the morning.
The storm covers the sky with darkness,
Whirling snow whirlwinds;
Then, like a beast, she will howl,
She will cry like a child.
Let's have a drink, good friend
My poor youth
Let's drink from grief: where is the mug?
The heart will be more cheerful.
A.S. Pushkin wrote the poem Winter Evening in 1825, in the village of Mikhailovskoye, where he was exiled after the southern exile.
In the south, Pushkin was surrounded by bright pictures of nature - the sea, mountains, sun, numerous friends and a festive atmosphere.
Finding himself in Mikhailovskoye, Pushkin suddenly felt loneliness and boredom. In addition, in Mikhailovsky it turned out that biological father The poet took on the functions of an overseer, checking his son’s correspondence and monitoring his every step.
In Pushkin's poetry, the house, the family hearth, always symbolized protection from life's adversities and blows of fate. The created strained relationship and his family forced the poet to leave home, spending time with neighbors or in nature. This mood could not help but be reflected in his poems.
An example is the poem “Winter Evening”. There are two heroes in the poem - the lyrical hero and the old woman - the poet's favorite nanny, Arina Rodionovna, to whom the poem is dedicated. The poem has four stanzas. each of two quatrains.
In the first stanza, the poet paints a picture of a snow storm. The whirling of whirlwinds, the howling and crying of the wind creates a mood of melancholy and hopelessness, and the hostility of the outside world. In the second stanza, Pushkin contrasts the house with the outside world, but this house is a poor defense - a dilapidated shack, sad and dark. And the image of the heroine, an old woman sitting motionless by the window, also emanates sadness and hopelessness. And suddenly, in the third stanza, bright motives appear - the desire to overcome despondency and hopelessness. Awaken a tired soul from sleep. There is hope for better life. In the fourth stanza the picture of a hostile external world is repeated again, which is contrasted with internal strength lyrical hero. The main protection and salvation from life’s adversities and shocks is not the walls of the house, but internal forces a person, his positive attitude, says Pushkin in his poem.
Loneliness in Mikhailovskoye. which so oppressed the poet had positive sides. Later, the poet will remember this time with love and wish to return it back. In the peace and quiet of nature, the poet was inspired, his feelings were heightened and new ones were born. vivid images, magnificent colors and epithets that we find, for example, in his descriptions of nature paintings. An example is the poem Winter morning.
Winter morning
Frost and sun; wonderful day!
You are still dozing, dear friend -
It's time, beauty, wake up:
Open your closed eyes
Towards northern Aurora,
Be the star of the north!
In the evening, do you remember, the blizzard was angry,
There was darkness in the cloudy sky;
The moon is like a pale spot
Through the dark clouds it turned yellow,
And you sat sad -
And now... look out the window:
Under blue skies
Magnificent carpets,
Glistening in the sun, the snow lies;
The transparent forest alone turns black,
And the spruce turns green through the frost,
And the river glitters under the ice.
The whole room has an amber shine
Illuminated. Cheerful crackling
The flooded stove crackles.
It's nice to think by the bed.
But you know: shouldn’t I tell you to get into the sleigh?
Ban the brown filly?
Sliding on the morning snow,
Dear friend, let's indulge in running
impatient horse
And we'll visit the empty fields,
The forests, recently so dense,
And the shore, dear to me.
The poem Winter Morning is bright and joyful, it exudes cheerfulness and optimism. The impression is enhanced by the fact that it is all built on contrasts. The rapid beginning of the poem “Frost and Sun, a Wonderful Day”, gentle poetic images The beauties - the heroines of the poem, to whom the author appeals to go out for a walk, already create a joyful and bright mood. And suddenly, in the second stanza - a description of a cloudy yesterday evening. storms outside the window, the sad mood of the heroine. Pushkin here uses gloomy colors (cloudy sky, haze, the moon turns yellow through the gloomy clouds). And again, by contrast, in the third stanza there is a description of this brilliant morning. Bright and juicy epithets ( blue skies, magnificent carpets, the river glitters, etc.) create the image of a magnificent sparkling winter landscape, conveying a cheerful, cheerful mood. The author seems to be saying that one should never give in to despondency, adversity is transitory, and bright and joyful days will certainly follow. Having described the delights of nature, the hero again turns his gaze to the room in the fourth stanza of the poem. This room is no longer dull as it was the day before; it is illuminated with a golden, alluring “warm amber light.” Comfort and warmth beckon you to stay at home, but you don’t need to give in to laziness. to freedom, to Fresh air! - the author calls.
