Composition. Love is selfless, selfless, not waiting for reward in the story “Garnet Bracelet”

allows you to reveal the problem from the point of view of the author of the story or turn to your personal understanding of love. Your choice should be reflected in the introduction:
  • Classic works are often dedicated to eternal themes: love, death, friendship, war and others. It is not surprising that such a sensitive and attentive person as Alexander Ivanovich Kuprin wrote some of his most successful works about love. This is “The Duel”, and “Olesya”, and, of course, the story “ Garnet bracelet", in which the author’s view of this great feeling is clearly visible.
  • The theme of love belongs to the category of those that can be clearly or implicitly detected in absolutely any work. For each reader it reveals itself in its own way, and somehow especially resonates in the soul. When the theme of love is given a central place in a work, as in the story by I.A. Kuprin’s “Garnet Bracelet”, the reader not only gets acquainted with the story told by the writer, but feels it.

Each idea can be developed in different ways, confirming it different examples from the text of the story. The first option can also be supplemented with details of the author's biography.

Alexander Ivanovich Kuprin lived a rich life. This is probably why in his stories he talks about eternal values, and does not pursue popular plots and heroes. “The Garnet Bracelet” can hardly be called life-like, but Kuprin always argued that his best story, in his opinion, is a true story. The story is indeed based on real events, but the plot was based on a funny rather than a tragic episode. This is the unique talent of the author - to notice something unusual in everyday routine and create literary masterpieces.

The character, who by the will of the author was destined to experience “disinterested, selfless, not requiring reward” love, is not in the foreground: he is hidden behind letters to Princess Vera, as if he had never existed at all. Even his name is unknown to the reader: at the end of the story we only learn that the person hidden behind the abbreviation “P.P.Zh” is telegraph operator Zheltkov. But for Kuprin, neither his status nor his name matter. He transfers all the excitement about this to another hero of the story - Vera’s brother. Nikolai Nikolaevich and partly Vera’s husband, Prince Vasily Lvovich, express public position. The author needs these heroes because her own point of view differs from the generally accepted one.

Kuprin, contrary to first impressions, shows that the happiest hero of the story was Zheltkov. He is the only one who was able to experience a strong feeling, albeit unrequited. And Princess Vera could only get closer to love, which happens only once in a lifetime. Vera Nikolaevna was “cold”, “royally calm”, “a little patronizingly kind”, but still one cannot exclude her ability to feel. “Leave me, I know that this man will kill himself,” she says to her husband, realizing that she had missed what she was subconsciously looking for in conversations with Anosov, in thoughts alone with herself: “You see, the kind of love for which to do anything a feat, to give one’s life, to undergo torture is not work at all, but one joy.”

Over time, Zheltkov no longer needs reciprocity: he is nourished by love itself. At that moment when Nikolai Nikolaevich and Vasily Lvovich deprive him of the very opportunity to love, Zheltkov does not see the point in living further. The last hope for love with his death also disappears for Vera Nikolaevna: “At that second she realized that the love that every woman dreams of had passed her by.”

Our own perception of love in the story “The Garnet Bracelet” requires at the same time a deeper analysis of the text.

Each person understands and perceives love differently. It’s a matter of choice: to believe in it or consider it possible only in fiction. The story “The Garnet Bracelet” by Alexander Ivanovich Kuprin is not only brilliantly written and has an interesting plot, but is also universal in perception. It is difficult to say in whose appearance the soul of the author is hidden, although Kuprin’s sympathy and sympathy for Zheltkov is obvious.

The hero, to whom the author entrusts a great feeling, is small and inconspicuous, hidden from the world. In a rather awkward conversation with Vera Nikolaevna’s husband, Zheltkov, perhaps the first and last time can talk openly about his experiences. This complexity is close to each of us, because we often hide our own feelings from the world and others, fearing being rejected, but hoping for reciprocity.

At first, Zheltkov blames himself for the inappropriate feeling, but later he realizes that he cannot cope with love, and accepts it as the greatest gift: “I tested myself - this is not a disease, not a manic idea - this is love, which God wanted for whatever reason.” "To reward me." He is not afraid to be funny or absurd, he loves - and this is his happiness.

Zheltkov’s feelings resonate even in the soul of Prince Shein, although he should absolutely justifiably be offended and overcome with jealousy: “The main thing is that I see his face, and I feel that this man is not capable of deceiving and knowingly lying. Indeed, think, Kolya, is he to blame for love and is it possible to control such a feeling as love - a feeling that has not yet found an interpreter. - After thinking, the prince said: “I feel sorry for this man.” And not only do I feel sorry, but I also feel that I am present at some enormous tragedy of the soul, and I cannot clown around here.” The power of Zheltkov’s love repels all possible opposing forces and even after his death resounds with the sounds of a Beethoven sonata and the quiet whisper “Hallowed be the Lord” Your name».

In the final part of the essay, you can draw conclusions corresponding to the chosen essay idea:

  • Alexander Ivanovich Kuprin’s story “The Garnet Bracelet” is a reflection of the author’s understanding of the feeling of love and a variant of the disclosure of this topic in the writer’s work. Many of his works are dedicated to the most valuable thing for his characters and, probably, for the author himself - love.
  • Vera Nikolaevna, as an object of love, touches her with reverence - the greatest miracle in her understanding - and realizes with bitter regret that she realized her loss too late. However, because the author called love “unselfish, selfless, not requiring reward,” the princess believes that Zheltkov forgave her.
  • The author does not talk about great love– he shows it. By the end of the story, the reader unconditionally believes in Zheltkov’s feelings, imbued with faith in the same way as the heroes of the story.
  • The feeling of love described by Kuprin is close to any reader - callous or sensitive, attentive to detail or superficial. The author of the story managed to create a universal system of characters, each of which reflects different views on the problem raised. Kuprin shows that love may not be seen, may be understood and accepted, but only the happiest and in exceptional cases manage to truly experience the great feeling of love.

Love is selfless, selfless, not waiting for reward (based on the story “The Garnet Bracelet” by I.A. Kuprin)
Sometimes we are so far from reality in our dreams that the next return to reality brings us pain and disappointment. And we run away from the slightest troubles of life, from its coldness and insensitivity. In our pink dreams we see a bright future, in our dreams we again try to build crystal castles in a cloudless sky. But there is a feeling in our lives that is so close to our dreams that it almost touches them. This is love. With him we feel protected from the vicissitudes of fate. Already from childhood, the foundations of love and affection are laid in the minds of everyone. And every person will carry them throughout his life, sharing them with the world around him, thereby making it wider and brighter. thereby making it wider and lighter. But sometimes it seems that people are increasingly grounding their own interests, and even feelings become victims of such grounding. They become stale, turn into ice, and become smaller. Unfortunately, not everyone has to experience happy and sincere love. And even that has its ups and downs. And some even wonder: Does it exist in the world? And yet, I really want to believe that this is a magical feeling, in the name of which, for the sake of a loved one, you can sacrifice the most valuable thing - even own life. Precisely about such a selfless and forgiving love, writes Kuprin in his story “Garnet Bracelet”.
The first pages of the story are devoted to a description of nature. It’s as if all events are happening against their miraculous light background, it’s coming true wonderful fairy tale love. Coldish autumn landscape fading nature is similar in essence to the mood of Vera Nikolaevna Sheina. From it we predict her calm, unapproachable character. Nothing attracts her in this life, perhaps that is why the brightness of her being is enslaved by everyday life and dullness. Even during a conversation with her sister Anna, in which the latter admires the beauty of the sea, she replies that at first this beauty also excites her, and then “begins to crush her with its flat emptiness...”. Vera could not be imbued with a sense of beauty in the world around her. She was not a natural romantic. And, having seen something out of the ordinary, some peculiarity, I tried (even if involuntarily) to bring it down to earth, to compare it with the world around me. Her life flowed slowly, measuredly, quietly, and, it would seem, satisfied life principles, without going beyond their scope. Vera married a prince, yes, but the same exemplary, quiet person as she herself was. The time had simply come, although there was no talk of hot, passionate love. And so Vera Nikolaevna receives a bracelet from Zheltkov, the shine of the garnets plunges her into horror, her brain is immediately pierced by the thought “like blood,” and now a clear feeling about the impending misfortune weighs on her, and this time it is not at all empty. From that moment on, her peace of mind was destroyed. Having received a letter along with the bracelet in which Zheltkov confesses his love to her, there is no limit to the growing excitement. Vera considered Zheltkov “unfortunate”; she could not understand the tragedy of this love. The expression “happy unhappy person” turned out to be somewhat contradictory. After all, in his feeling for Vera, Zheltkov experienced happiness. He ended his life on the orders of Tuganovsky, thereby blessing the woman he loved. Leaving forever, he thought that Vera’s path would become free, her life would improve and go on as before. But there is no turning back. Farewell to Zheltkov’s body was climax her life. At this moment, the power of love reached its maximum value and became equal to death. Eight years of bad, selfless love that demands nothing in return, eight years of devotion to a sweet ideal, selflessness from one’s own principles. In one short moment of happiness, sacrificing everything accumulated over such a long period of time is not something everyone can do. But Zheltkov’s love for Vera did not obey any models, she was above them. And even if her end turned out to be tragic, Zheltkov’s forgiveness was rewarded. The crystal palace in which Vera lived shattered, letting in a lot of light, warmth, and sincerity into life. Merging in the finale with Beethoven’s music, it merges with both Zheltkov’s love and eternal memory about him.
I would so much like this fairy tale about the all-forgiving and strong love, created by I. A. Kuprin. I would like so much that cruel reality could never defeat our sincere feelings, our love. We must increase it, be proud of it. Love, true love, you need to study diligently, like the most painstaking science. However, love does not come if you wait for its appearance every minute, and at the same time, it does not flare up out of nothing, but it is also impossible to extinguish strong, true love. She, different in all manifestations, is not an example of life traditions, but rather an exception to the rule. And yet a person needs love for purification, for acquiring the meaning of life. A loving person is capable of sacrifice for the sake of peace and happiness of a loved one. And yet he is happy. We must bring into love all the best that we feel, that we are proud of. And then bright sun will certainly illuminate it, and even the most ordinary love will become sacred, merging into one with eternity. Forever…

Is love always “selfless, selfless, not expecting reward”?

For some people, love is happiness, for others it is a gift, and for others it is a test. I, like everyone else, dream of meeting love. I hope she will be God’s gift to me, which will help me become successful both as a person and as a citizen. I agree with the opinion of Kuprin, who speaks in the words of General Anosov, that this feeling should not be frivolous, nor primitive, and, moreover, based on profit and self-interest: “Love should be a tragedy. The greatest secret in the world! No life conveniences, calculations or compromises should concern her.” This is exactly what Zheltkov’s love was like. Without a doubt, " little man“Indescribably happy: thanks to love, life has been filled with meaning, connection with the whole world and God: “I am infinitely grateful to you just for the fact that you exist... I say in delight: “Hallowed be Thy name.” Zheltkov does not demand anything, he is happy that the princess walks on the same land, along the same streets; that she breathes the same air.

I feel sorry for the members of the Sheyny and Bulat-Tuganovsky families, because they will never be able to understand the sincerity and tenderness of love: their destiny is only to mock everyone and live in a soulless little world, where the main thing is money and position in society; where there is no place for dreams; where they cannot understand selflessness. It is in the little world, because the word “world” includes an unlimited variety of feelings, sounds, colors. This is the world I want to live in.

Unfortunately, in literature we meet soulless people more than once. This is Helen Kuragina, Molchalin. For them, there is an equal sign between love and wealth. Such people are scary. In life, I hope, there are few of them. But there are plenty of examples of sincere love, for example, eternal true love Margarita and the Master, to whom even the devil is not a hindrance.

It is surprising that death does not frighten Zheltkov. The sincere feeling seemed to dissipate in the surrounding world, merging with Beethoven’s Sonata No. 2 Largo Appasionato. This means love stronger than death. This means that love is a feeling that may not require reciprocity; a feeling that will help to be reborn from a dead soul into a real human one.

There is no bond holier than fellowship (N.V. Gogol)

Without a doubt, the story of N.V. Gogol's "Taras Bulba" is one of the best historical works. The author depicts the life of the Cossacks, reveals their way of life, morals and customs; talks about the importance of camaraderie. Is there really nothing more important than camaraderie?

It seems to me that it was in the Zaporozhye Sich that people became real warriors, defenders of the faith and fatherland. That’s why Ostap and Andriy were so eager to come here. For young people, the Zaporozhye camp is a free republic, in which there are laws supported by everyone, and which could not be violated. But some of them, in my opinion, would seem cruel to a contemporary, for example, burying a living person together with a murdered one. I have deep respect for the Cossacks, but still, I am sure, the commandments of the Bible and the Koran cannot be violated, and the Cossacks are deeply religious people. Of course, everything best features Cossack camaraderie manifests itself in war. For them, “there is no bond more sacred than comradeship.” On a campaign against the “Poles,” Taras Bulba, as expected, says to the Cossacks: “What kind of Cossack is he who abandoned his comrade in trouble, abandoned him like a lost dog in a foreign land?” These words, in my opinion, are the motto not only of the Cossacks, but of every real person. Let us remember the exploits of Soviet soldiers, who also risked their lives to free prisoners. These are the soldiers of Colonel Mlynsky, the partisans of Kovpak and many others.

Without a doubt, the essence of Cossack comradeship is revealed by Taras Bulba with the words: “There were comrades in other lands, but there were no such comrades as in the Russian land... to love like the Russian soul - to love not just with the mind or with anything else, but everything that God has given, whatever is in you... No, no one can love like that!..” Today these words are united by the capacious concept of “patriotism”. Everyone knows that it is impossible to betray the Motherland, that betrayal has no justification and no statute of limitations. All Cossacks follow this rule, except Andriy. Proof can be the rescue of Taras by his comrade-in-arms Tovkach and the death of the hero: he dies without betraying his comrades, his homeland, or his faith. That is why Bulba remained a hero for his comrades, a real Zaporozhye Cossack.

From the above, we can conclude that there is nothing more important and stronger than the “bonds of camaraderie.”

Sometimes we are so far from reality in our dreams that the next return to reality brings us pain and disappointment. And we run away from the slightest troubles of life, from its coldness and insensitivity. In our pink dreams we see a bright future, in our dreams we again try to build crystal castles in a cloudless sky.

And yet, I really want to believe that this is a magical feeling, in the name of which, for the sake of a loved one, you can sacrifice the most valuable thing - even your own life.

Merging in the finale with Beethoven’s music, it merges with Zheltkov’s love and with the eternal memory of him.

I would like so much that cruel reality could never defeat our sincere feelings, our love. We must increase it, be proud of it.

“LOVE IS SELFLESS, SELF-SAFE,

NOT EXPECTING A REWARD."

(Love theme in the story “Garnet Bracelet”)

LOVE IS ALL POWERFUL: THERE IS NO WORRY ON EARTH -

HIGHER IS ITS PUNISHMENT, NOR HAPPINESS - HIGHER IS PLEASURE -

NIA TO SERVE HER.

INTRODUCTION: To the sounds of music by G. Sviridov “Illustrations for the story A, S Pushkin “Blizzard”, the teacher reads a sonnet by W. Shakespeare by heart.

Her eyes are not like stars

You can't call your mouth coral,

The open skin of the shoulders is not snow-white,

And a strand curls like black wire.

With damask rose, scarlet or white,

You can't compare the shade of these cheeks,

And the body smells like the body smells,

Not like a violet's delicate petal.

You won't find perfect lines in it,

A special color on the forehead.

I don't know how the goddesses walk,

And the darling steps on the ground.

But still she will hardly give in to those

Who was slandered in comparisons of magnificent people?

TEACHER: These words belong to the great Shakespeare. And here is how Vs reflects on this feeling 500 years later. Christmas.

Love, love is a mysterious word,

Who could fully understand him?

Everything is always old or new,

Are you languor of spirit or grace?

Irreversible loss

Or endless enrichment?

Hot day, what a sunset

Or the night that devastated hearts?

Or maybe you're just a reminder

About what inevitably awaits us all?

And the eternal world cycle?

TEACHER: Love is one of the most sublime, noble and beautiful human feelings. True love always selfless and selfless. What sayings about love have you found?

It is this kind of love, amazing in beauty and strength, that is depicted in the story “The Garnet Bracelet,” written in 1910. The work is based on real fact - history the love of a modest official for a socialite, the mother of the writer Leonid Lyubimov.
