Indifference is a terrible phenomenon. It destroys not only those to whom they are indifferent, but also those who are indifferent, because our feelings have a huge impact on us and our destinies. It seems to me that everyone chooses for themselves whether to be a cold person or one with a trembling soul: even having fully experienced the injustice of life, you can remain a merciful person, capable of compassion and good deeds. Unfortunately, the number of such people is decreasing, which is why the world is becoming crueler. This is very dangerous for humanity, because if such people disappear, goodness, sincerity, and generosity will also disappear. The problem of indifference is a burning problem, and it is reflected in the pages of literature.
All literature is devoted to human feelings, one of the great thinkers even called it “human studies,” and the feeling of indifference with its consequences did not pass by. Works of Konstantin Georgievich Paustovsky “Telegram” - bright that example. This story clearly shows what indifference to loved ones ultimately leads to. IN in this case This is Nastya’s indifference to her mother, Katerina Petrovna, who very badly needs her, her love, support, and care. But Nastya only sends money every two or three months, not suspecting that it is not money that can satisfy her most important need. Nastya does not show real concern in her letters either; she only notifies her of her deep busyness, which, in turn, was not busy at all. The fact that Pershin admires the care and responsibility of Anastasia Semyonovna speaks about pseudo-employment: it was possible not to take on young Timofeev, but to contribute to the “improvement” of Katerina Petrovna, rather than the artist. When the courier gives Nastya a letter announcing her mother’s imminent death, she cries not about this, but from embarrassment caused by the applause. The feeling of guilt intensifies under the mocking gaze of Gorky and, unable to bear it, she still leaves the exhibition, but too late. It’s too late, because she always thinks about “crowded trains, transferring to a narrow-gauge railway, a shaking cart, a withered garden, inevitable maternal tears, about the viscous, unadorned boredom of rural days,” and she is too lazy to go to her homeland, she is selfish, not understands how hard it is for a mother alone in Zaborye, while strangers, Manyushka and Tikhon, feel sorry for and help the old woman. Nastya doesn’t have time for the funeral, she mourns Katerina Petrovna all night, empty, dark room, which life has left. This is her sentence, a sentence for inattention and indifference towards herself. important person in the world.
Thus, indifference kills a person, kills his soul, faith, ability to feel. Reading stories such as “Telegram” by Konstantin Georgievich Paustovsky, I once again understand that you need to take care and love your relatives, in the everyday bustle, do not forget about them, call, write, come to them and, of course, help them in old age.
All arguments for the final essay in the direction of “Indifference and Responsiveness.”
Why is indifference dangerous? Can caring for people save lives?
Indifference can cause a person heartache, indifference can even kill. The indifference of people caused the death of the little girl, the heroine Christmas story H.K. Andersen. Barefoot and hungry, she wandered the streets in the hope of selling matches and bringing money home, but it was New Year's Eve, and people had absolutely no time for buying matches, much less a beggar girl hanging around the houses. No one asked her why she was wandering alone in the cold, no one offered her food, a passing boy even stole her shoe, which was too big and fell off her small foot. The girl dreamed only of a warm place, where there was no fear and pain, of home-cooked food, the aromas that came from every window. She was afraid to return home, and the attic could hardly be called home. In desperation, she began to burn matches that she was supposed to sell. Each burned match gave her wonderful images, she even saw her deceased grandmother. The mirage was so clear that the girl believed in it, she asked her grandmother to take her with her. They ascended high into the heavens with joy on their faces. In the morning, people found a little dead girl with a smile on her lips and an almost empty box of matches in her hands. It was not cold and poverty that killed her, but human indifference to the troubles of the people around her.
Should we learn empathy?
Empathy can and should be learned. The main character of J. Boyne's novel "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas" Bruno is a striking example that confirms my position. His dad, a German military officer, hires a tutor for the children, who should teach them to understand modern history, understand what is right and what is wrong. But Bruno is not at all interested in what the teacher says, he loves adventures and does not understand at all how some people differ from others. In search of friends, the boy goes to “explore” the area near his home and stumbles upon concentration camp, where he meets his peer, the Jewish boy Shmuel. Bruno knows that he should not be friends with Shmuel, so he carefully hides his meetings. He brings food to the prisoner, plays with him and talks through the barbed wire. Neither propaganda nor his father can make him hate the camp prisoners. On the day of his departure, Bruno again goes to a new friend, he decides to help him find his father, puts on a striped robe and sneaks into the camp. The ending of this story is sad, the children are sent to the gas chamber, and only by the remains of their clothes Bruno’s parents understand what happened. This story teaches that empathy needs to be cultivated in oneself. Perhaps we need to learn to look at the world the way this does main character, then people will not repeat monstrous mistakes.
Partial (indifferent) attitude towards nature
One of the main characters of the novel B.L. Vasiliev “Don’t shoot white swans” Egor Polushkin is a man who does not stay in one job for long. The reason for this is the inability to work “without a heart.” He loves the forest very much and takes care of it. That is why he is appointed as a forester, while firing the dishonest Buryanov. It was then that Egor showed himself as a true fighter for nature conservation. He bravely enters the fight against poachers who set fire to the forest and killed the swans. This man serves as an example of how to treat nature. Thanks to people like Yegor Polushkin, humanity has not yet destroyed everything that exists on this earth. Goodness in the person of caring “polushkins” must always act against Buryanov’s cruelty.
"The Man Who Planted Trees" is an allegorical story. At the center of the story is the shepherd Elzéar Bouffier, who single-handedly decided to restore the ecosystem of the desert area. For four decades, Bouffier planted trees, which led to incredible results: the valley became like a Garden of Eden. The authorities perceived this as a natural phenomenon, and the forest received official state protection. After some time, about 10,000 people moved to this area. All these people owe their happiness to Bouffier. Elzeard Bouffier is an example of how a person should relate to nature. This work awakens in readers a love for the world around them. Man can not only destroy, he is also capable of creating. Human resources are inexhaustible; determination can create life where there is none. This story was translated into 13 languages, it influenced society and authorities so much that after reading it, hundreds of thousands of hectares of forest were restored.
A caring attitude towards nature.
The story "" touches on the problem of attitude towards nature. A positive example is the behavior of children. So, the girl Dasha discovers a flower that grows in terrible conditions and needs help. The next day she brings a whole detachment of pioneers, and together they fertilize the ground around the flower. A year later, we see the consequences of such indifference. The wasteland is unrecognizable: it was “overgrown with herbs and flowers,” and “birds and butterflies flew over it.” Caring for nature does not always require titanic efforts from a person, but it always brings such important results. By spending an hour of their time, each person can save or “give life” to a new flower. And every flower in this world counts.
Indifference to art.
The main character of the novel I.S. Turgenev's "Fathers and Sons" Evgeny Bazarov is completely devoid of interest in art. He denies it, recognizing only “the art of making money.” He considers a decent chemist more important than any poet, and calls poetry “nonsense.” The painter Raphael, in his opinion, “is not worth a penny.” Even music is not a “serious” activity. Evgeniy is proud of the “absence artistic meaning“in his nature, although he himself is quite familiar with works of art. The denial of generally accepted values is most important to him. For him, the idea of “need” should prevail in everything: if he does not see practical benefits in something, then it is not very important. His profession should be taken into account. He is a doctor, and therefore a zealous materialist. Everything that is subject to reason is of interest to him, but what is in the sphere of feelings and does not have a rational justification is tantamount to danger for him. What he cannot understand scares him the most. And as we know, art is something that cannot be explained in terms, it can only be felt with the heart. That is why Bazarov shows deliberate indifference to art, he simply does not understand it. Because if he understands, he will have to give up everything he believes in. This means admitting that you are wrong, “betraying your principles,” and appearing before all your followers as a person who says one thing and does another. And how could he abandon his ideas after he defended them, bringing the boiling point in the dispute to the maximum.
His profession also played an important role. It is difficult for a person who knows the anatomical structure of the body to believe in the existence of the soul. It is difficult for a doctor who sees death, denies miracles and believes in the power of medicine to imagine that the soul also needs medicine - and this is art.
Another example illustrating indifference to art is Doctor Dymov from the story “” by A.P. Chekhov. His wife Olga Ivanovna blames him for one shortcoming, namely a lack of interest in art. To which Dymov replies that he does not deny art, but simply does not understand it, he studied medicine all his life, and he had no time. Osip claims that if alone smart people devote their entire lives to art, and other smart people pay huge amounts of money for their works, which means they are needed. Partly, the indifference to art is due to his activities, partly to the fact that he had to work several jobs so that Olga Ivanovna could afford to “live in the world of art” and move in the company of “exalted” people. Perhaps Dymov did not understand precisely the false art, the love for which Olga tried so hard to instill in him. Pretense, flattery, and snobbery were the companions of people of art who attended Olga Ivanovna’s receptions. It can be said that Dymov was not indifferent to true art, but to a false one, because the sad tunes that his friend played on the piano touched his heart.
What does indifference lead to? Why is indifference dangerous?
For Onegin, indifference turned out to be a poison that destroyed him over the years. His inability to have strong feelings played a cruel joke on him. When Tatyana confessed her love to Evgeniy, he turned deaf to her impulses. At that stage of his life, he simply could not do otherwise. It took him years to develop the ability to feel. Unfortunately, fate did not give him a second chance. However, Tatyana’s confession can be considered an important victory, an awakening for Eugene.
A person’s attitude towards parents, indifference towards loved ones. What does indifference to loved ones lead to? Do you agree with Shaw’s statement: “The worst sin towards one’s neighbor is not hatred, but indifference, this is truly the pinnacle of inhumanity.” Do you agree with the statement: An ungrateful son is worse than a stranger: he is a criminal, since a son has no right to be indifferent to his mother.”
Indifferent attitude towards loved ones.
Very often children forget about their parents, immersed in their own worries and affairs. So, for example, in the story by K.G. Paustovsky's "" shows the daughter's attitude towards her aged mother. Katerina Petrovna lived alone in the village, while her daughter was busy with her career in Leningrad. The last time Nastya saw her mother was 3 years ago, she wrote letters extremely rarely, and sent her 200 rubles every two or three months. This money didn’t bother Katerina Petrovna much; she re-read a few lines that her daughter wrote along with the translation (about not only not having time to come, but also to write a normal letter). Katerina Petrovna missed her daughter very much and listened to every rustle. When she felt really bad, she asked her daughter to come to see her before she died, but Nastya didn’t have time. There was a lot to do, she didn’t take her mother’s words seriously. This letter was followed by a telegram that her mother was dying. Only then did Nastya realize that “no one loved her as much as this decrepit old woman abandoned by everyone.” She realized too late that there had never been anyone dearer than her mother in her life and never would be. Nastya went to the village to see her mother last time in life to ask for forgiveness and say the most important words, but I didn’t have time. Katerina Petrovna died. Nastya didn’t even have time to say goodbye to her and left with the awareness of “irreparable guilt and unbearable heaviness.”
Why is indifference dangerous? How are the concepts of indifference and selfishness related? What kind of person can be called indifferent? How do you understand Suvorov’s words: “How painful is indifference to oneself?”
Indifference is a feeling that can manifest itself not only in relation to other people, but also to life in general. , central character“Hero of Our Time”, shown by M.Yu. Lermontov as a person who does not see the joys of life. He is bored all the time, he quickly loses interest in people and places, so the main goal of his life is to search for “adventures”. His life is an endless attempt to feel something. According to the famous literary critic Belinsky, Pechorin “frantically chases after life, looking for it everywhere.” His indifference reaches the point of absurdity, turning into indifference to himself. According to Pechorin himself, his life “becomes emptier day by day.” He sacrifices his life in vain, embarks on adventures that do not benefit anyone. Using the example of this hero, you can see that indifference spreads in the human soul like a dangerous disease. It leads to sad consequences and broken destinies of both those around them and the most indifferent person. An indifferent person cannot be happy because his heart is not capable of loving people.
HERO OF OUR TIME ANALYSIS
Caring attitude towards the profession.
The role of a teacher in a person’s life is difficult to overestimate. A teacher is one who is able to open amazing world, to reveal a person’s potential, to help make a choice life path. A teacher is not only someone who imparts knowledge, it is, first of all, a moral guide. Thus, the main character of M. Gelprin’s story “Andrei Petrovich” is a teacher with a capital T. This is a man who remained faithful to his profession even in the most difficult times. hard times. In a world where spirituality has faded into the background, Andrei Petrovich continued to defend eternal values. He did not agree to betray his ideals despite his poor financial situation. The reason for this behavior lies in the fact that for him the meaning of life is to transmit and share knowledge. Andrei Petrovich was ready to teach anyone who knocked on his door. A caring attitude towards the profession is the key to happiness. Only such people can make the world a better place.

What can indifference lead to?
IN fiction the theme of indifference is also reflected. Thus, E. Zamyatin in the novel “We” shows us a certain model of life, as well as the consequences tacit consent both individuals and society as a whole. A terrifying picture appears before the reader’s eyes: totalitarian state, in which people are deprived not only of individuality, of their own opinion, but also of morality. But if you try to understand the reasons for what is happening, you come to the conclusion: every society receives the leader it deserves, and the inhabitants of the United State themselves allow the bloodthirsty dictator to rule them. They themselves join the “orderly ranks” of the robot-like ones, and on their own feet they undergo an operation to “remove fantasy,” thereby depriving themselves of the opportunity to live fully.
However, there were a few who were able to say “no” to this system. For example, main character novel I-33, understanding the absurdity of this world. She created a coalition of resistance because she firmly knew that no one has the right to deprive a person of freedom. She could have lived immersed in comfortable hypocrisy, but she chose protest. A great responsibility fell on her shoulders not only for herself, but also for many people who did not understand the horror happening in the state.
D-503 did exactly the same. This hero was treated kindly by the authorities, held a high position, and lived in a calm, indifferent, mechanical state. But meeting I changed his life. He realized that the ban on feelings is immoral in nature. No one dares to take away from a person what life has given him. After he experienced love, he could no longer remain indifferent. His struggle did not bring results, since the state deprived him of his soul, destroying his ability to feel, but his “awakening” cannot be called in vain. Because the world is able to change for the better only thanks to the brave and caring.
What is the danger of indifference? Do you agree with the statement: “Fear the indifferent - they do not kill or betray, but it is with their silent consent that betrayal and murder exist on earth”?
In the novel "Cloud Atlas" David Mitchell We come across examples of indifferent attitude towards people. The novel takes place in the dystopian state of Ni-So-Kopros, which developed on the territory of modern Korea. In this state, society is divided into two groups: purebreds (people born naturally) and fabricators (clone people raised artificially as slaves). Slaves are not considered people; they are destroyed like broken equipment. The author focuses on the heroine Sonmi-451, who by chance finds herself involved in the fight against the state. When will she find out the terrible truth Sunmi can no longer remain silent about how the world really works and begins to fight for justice. This becomes possible only thanks to caring “purebreds” who understand the injustice of such a division. In a fierce battle, her comrades and a loved one are killed, and Sunmi is sentenced to death penalty, but before her death she manages to tell her story to the “archivist.” This is the only person who heard her confession, but it was he who later changed the world. The moral of this part of the novel is that as long as there is at least one caring person, hope for a just world will not fade.
What kind of person can be called responsive? Are there people unworthy of sympathy?
A sympathetic person can be called one who thinks about others more than himself, is always ready to help those in need, and also takes other people’s experiences to heart. The hero of the novel by F.M. can be called truly responsive. Dostoevsky's "The Idiot" by Prince Lev Nikolaevich Myshkin. Prince Myshkin is a representative of a noble family, orphaned early, who spent 4 years abroad due to a nervous illness. He seems strange to those around him, but interesting person. He amazes people with the depth of his thoughts, but at the same time shocks with his straightforwardness. However, everyone notes his openness and kindness.
Her responsiveness begins to appear soon after meeting the main actors. He finds himself in the midst of a family scandal: Ganya’s sister Ivolgina, in protest against his marriage, spits in his face. Prince Myshkin stands up for her, for which he receives a slap in the face from Ganya. Only instead of getting angry, he feels sorry for Ivolgin. Myshkin understands that Gana will be very ashamed of her behavior.
Lev Nikolaevich also believes in the best in people, so he turns to Nastasya Filippovna, claiming that she is better than she tries to seem. The ability to compassion, like a magnet, attracts people around Myshkin. Nastasya Filippovna and, later, Aglaya fall in love with him...
Myshkin's distinctive feature is pity for people. He does not approve of them. bad deeds, but always empathizes and understands their pain. Having fallen in love with Aglaya, he cannot marry her because he feels sorry for Nastasya Flipovna and cannot leave her.
He even feels sorry for the robber Rogozhkin, who subsequently kills Nastasya.
Lev Myshkin's compassion does not divide people into good and bad, worthy and unworthy. It is aimed at all humanity, it is unconditional.
How do you understand Suvorov’s words: “How painful is indifference to oneself”?
Indifference to oneself is a heavy burden that pulls a person to the very bottom of life. An example confirming the above is the hero novel of the same name I.A. Goncharova Ilya. His whole life is a geometric progression of indifference to himself. It starts small: with his appearance, to which Ilya Ilyich does not attach any importance. He wears an old, worn-out robe and slippers. These things lack individuality and beauty. Everything in his room is broken and dusty. In his financial affairs- collapse. But most of all, Oblomov’s refusal of the idea of happiness with Olga can be considered a manifestation of indifference in himself. He is so indifferent to himself that he deprives himself of the opportunity to live fully. This leads him to get together with a woman he doesn't love, just because it's convenient.
At least once in a lifetime, indifference overcomes every person. This state represents an indifferent attitude towards the world around us, people, current events and one’s own destiny. In medical terminology, indifference is known as apathy. This word came from Greek language, translated it means “detachment.” According to statistics, the highest percentage of cases of apathy is recorded in countries with high level income. According to WHO, France ranks first - 21%, the United States is second - 19%, and the Netherlands is in third place - 17.9%. Modern medicine views apathy as a pathological condition that requires diagnosis and treatment.
Why is indifference dangerous?
A short-term state of apathy can be natural. As a rule, after vigorous activity, calm and indifference sets in. This temporary state can easily be eliminated by communicating with loved ones, watching a comedy, or getting a good night's sleep. But sometimes apathy can drag on for a long time. If the blues do not go away within 3 weeks, this should be a significant cause for concern. Few people know the dangers of indifference. It can signal serious problems in the body. In addition, such blues can develop into prolonged depression.
It is worth saying that there are extreme examples of indifference. This is a state in which a person shows indifference to everything that surrounds him and to himself. At a particularly advanced stage, he refuses to eat, monitor appearance and your own hygiene. This condition poses a direct threat to human health and life. In extreme cases, indifference, which is also synonymous with blues and depression, leads to the fact that a person completely loses his taste for life and decides to commit suicide. Therefore, it is very important to record such changes in behavior in a timely manner and seek help from a specialist.
Apathy can be provoked by: external factors, and internal. Even seemingly insignificant events affect state of mind person. Also, absolute indifference can be an independent syndrome or act as a sign of a disease. The most common causes of apathy include the following factors:
No one is immune from indifference, synonyms of which are apathy, depression and blues. This condition can occur at any age. However, there are gender differences. For example, doctors are inclined to believe that blues more often torment women than men.
The risk group includes pensioners and teenagers. The former are especially susceptible to this condition immediately after retirement. A person who has transitioned to retirement develops a feeling of uselessness due to the large amount of free time. People who are accustomed to a busy work schedule suffer especially from apathy.
Indifference in adolescents arises due to the characteristics nervous activity. During this period, hormonal changes in the body occur, and frequent mood swings are not uncommon. Therefore, apathy, isolation and some aggression are characteristic of teenagers.
Periodically, a state of indifference can occur in every person at certain times of the year. Experts call this seasonal blues. The causes of this condition are most often vitamin deficiency, deficiency sunlight and weather change. Past illnesses, problems in personal life and creative crisis also cause an indifferent attitude towards everything. If this condition goes away over time, then you can do without professional intervention. Urgent consultation with a doctor requires apathy, accompanied by impairments of memory, intelligence and other mental functions.
Diagnostics
If a person who suffers for a day in a row Bad mood, tearfulness, indifference and loss of appetite, then you should worry, because this typical examples indifference. In this case, it is worth visiting a medical facility. There the therapist will write out a referral for the necessary instrumental examinations:
Which doctor should I contact?
Having established the reason why the characteristic signs of indifference arose, the therapist will write a referral to a more specialized specialist. The following doctors treat this disorder:
Diagnose the real reason This condition can only be treated by an experienced specialist. First of all, he will conduct a survey during which he will ask.
Indifference is a very immoral phenomenon that gives rise to various vices. It often leads to tragedies when they break down human lives, dreams are crumbling. M. Gorky said that indifference is dangerous for the human soul. I agree with him, because it deprives us of interest in life and people. This idea is confirmed by many works of Russian literature.
Gorky himself, in his play “At the Bottom,” shows a marginal society in which indifference and indifference to the fate of one’s neighbor reigns. The heroes gathered in the shelter, although they live under the same roof, remain indifferent to each other’s troubles. These people are cruel, many of them have already begun to lose that humanity without which they cannot live. They do not know how to sympathize: dying Anna does not arouse their pity, she only disturbs them with her cough. The drunken Actor “runs into” Bubnov’s condemnation, because he still believes in his recovery, in the theatrical talent that, perhaps, still lives in him, although there is not a single full-fledged role in his memory. The night shelters also laugh unkindly at the romantic Nastya, who dreams of love and composes stories based on what she reads. romance novels. In general, Gorky’s heroes are deaf to the experiences of others, and this indifference destroys them as people, turning them into indifferent creatures who are destined to spend their entire meager lives in this God-forsaken place described by the author.
Although not with such force, the destructive power of indifference is still shown in the novel by M.Yu. Lermontov "Hero of Our Time". Bela, a girl stolen from her home, becomes a toy for the main character Grigory Pechorin. The hero becomes interested in her and keeps her with him. Bela suffers greatly from this, and Pechorin, with the exception of rare moments, remains indifferent to her misfortune. He is shown to be a selfish person who is confident that he is right and does not even think about what his actions mean to others. The circumstances are such that Bela dies in pursuit at the hands of Kazbich: Pechorin is also indirectly guilty of this. Only after this does the hero seem to repent of what he has done, but this cannot change anything. “The love of a savage,” in his opinion, is no different from the love of a society young lady. Gregory talks about women as if they were things, and such indifference destroys his soul. He admits this in his numerous monologues from the Diary.
Indifference can make the life of a person and his loved ones unbearable; it truly destroys souls. Perhaps it is he who needs to be defeated first, and then humanity will again remember true morality, which is so lacking these days.
Interesting? Save it on your wall!I think there is no person in the world who has not encountered the indifference of others at least once in his life, so everyone knows what a bitter aftertaste this leaves in the soul. An indifferent person is a cold person, indifferent to everything that others consider important. He does not empathize with anyone, will never offer his help to someone in need, and moral values are alien to him. Who is an indifferent person? This is a man with a twisted soul. He is not able to live, but only to exist.
The theme of indifference has been relevant at all times and was raised more than once by Russian classics in their works. Very shining example Anton Pavlovich Chekhov demonstrated how indifference can destroy a person in his story “Anna on the Neck.” At the beginning of the work, the main character is a kind, selfless girl who marries an unloved but rich man, only to help her family get rid of hunger and want.
Wealth and new life However, they change Anna beyond recognition: she becomes indifferent. She no longer cares about the problems of her family, and everything that once seemed important now ceases to matter. In my opinion, Anna, having lost all those qualities that made her a worthy person, lost herself. Indifference spread like poison through her veins and as a result destroyed her soul, forcing her to forget all noble goals and become indifferent to everyone around her.
The absolute opposite of Anna is the heroine of Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky’s novel Crime and Punishment, Sonya Marmeladova. In fact, their stories begin very similar: Sonya goes to “trade herself” only in order to save her family from hunger and poverty, but, unlike Anna, she will never betray her ideals and will not turn her back on her loved ones. Dostoevsky was able to show an incredibly selfless heroine with a pure soul who is ready to help anyone who needs it. Sonya faced many trials, but she endured them all steadfastly and did not give up what she believed in, what she considered right. The girl was ready to destroy her life for the well-being of others. Sonya Marmeladova, despite everything, remained a person and a worthy person who will give her last, but will not be indifferent to others.
Indifference deprives a person of everything good qualities, changing it beyond recognition, and ruins human soul. But we must not forget that such a person destroys not only his own life, but can also break other people's destinies. For some people, encountering the indifference of others can leave an indelible mark and affect their entire life. later life. Nowadays, the topic of indifference is becoming especially relevant, because it seems that there are more and more such people over the years. I believe that we should be more attentive to others, sincerely empathize with them and always help those who need help. The world of indifferent people - scary world, but if we want to change it, then everyone must start with himself.
