Russian lliterature

Russian literature has become an integral part of world culture and has received recognition from major artists.

Literature Championship in cultural life of the Russian people is explained by its origin and the significance that it has acquired since its inception. Writing and literature in Rus' were brought from outside along with Christianity. The book appeared in Rus' in the form of a sacred text, which decisively influenced the place and role of literature in the history of Russian culture.

For centuries, church literature remained the main and only mental and moral food for Russian scribes and for the entire people. Thus, she greatly contributed to the formation folk character. Thus, Russian literature immediately and forever marked its connection with national and state life.

The most significant works of the Kyiv period include the teachings of Metropolitan Hilarion (XI century), "The Tale of Bygone Years" (XI - early XII centuries), "The Teachings of Prince Vladimir Monomakh" (XI - early XII centuries), the works of Bishop Kirill Turovsky (XII century), "The Tale of Igor's Campaign" (XII century), "The Walking of Daniel the Sharper" (XII century). It was a busy time literary activity, who created the samples literary forms and genres for subsequent centuries.

Russian literature of the late Middle Ages is characterized by a feeling of being chosen (the theory of Moscow - the third Rome). Internal upheavals of the 16th-17th centuries. gave literature the character of religious and political journalism. In some cases, these works rise to high artistic level. Such are the “much noisy” messages of Ivan the Terrible and “The Life of Archpriest Avvakum.” At the same time, oral folk poetry achieved great power, beauty and expressiveness, but ancient Russian writers almost did not use this source. But with late XVI V. The secular everyday story is rapidly developing, as a rule, reworking wandering stories Western and Eastern literature.

From the end of the 17th century. Russian culture is experiencing a rapid invasion of Western European values. The ideological revolution, which coincided with the reform of language and spelling, led to the cultural crisis of the 18th century. Writers of that time wavered between unconditional imitation of French models and the search for their own themes, language and style. The desire to give literature national identity can be traced throughout the entire period: V.K. Trediakovsky and M.V. Lomonosov create a theory of correct Russian versification; A.V. Sumarokov writes songs in folk style; DI. Fonvizin creates comedies with Russian everyday content and live spoken language; Derzhavin anticipates the “sacred heat” of later Russian poetry.

The Russian literary language found its final form in the works of N.M. Karamzina, V.A. Zhukovsky and A.S. Pushkin.

Alexander's time was a period of great creative tension, when Russian writers experienced the first joy of independent creativity, completely national in spirit and style. Poetry has become an indisputable spiritual feat and calling, and has acquired the meaning of a “sacred act.” In literary creativity one can feel some special force of life, the highest expression of which was the work of A.S. Pushkin.

Since the 1840s Moral and metaphysical anxiety is growing in literature, which has found theoretical reflection in romanticism. The theme emerges extra person¦.

The era of "great reforms" of the 1860-1870s. awakened the attention of literature to social issues. Two creative highways of Russian literature are identified. Supporters" pure art"(A. Grigoriev, A.V. Druzhinin, A.A. Fet) resolutely rebel against the moral and utilitarian function of literature, while L.N. Tolstoy aims at the “destruction of aesthetics” for the sake of the moral transformation of people through art. Religious understanding of the Russian experience of the 19th century found expression in the works of F.M. Dostoevsky. philosophical issues determines the flourishing of the Russian novel. However philosophical motives sound clearly in the lyrics (F.I. Tyutchev).

In the pre-revolutionary years, a new cultural upsurge took place in literature, called " silver age".

Since the 1890s a new flowering of Russian poetry begins. Symbolism became not only literary movement, but also new spiritual experiences. Poetry and literature again receive special vital significance, as a path to faith and eternity through art. Artists strive to become “beyond good and evil”, to overcome ethics with aesthetics. Mysticism V.S. Solovyov finds a brilliant poetic commentary in the work of A.A. Blok. Acmeism becomes a reaction to the religious excitement of symbolism, to the understanding of the poet as a medium of higher, irrational forces (N.S. Gumilyov). At the same time, A.P. Chekhov and I.A. Bunin continue the classical line of Russian literature, enriching it the latest achievements in the form area.

The revolution of 1917 caused an artificial separation of Russian literature into domestic and emigrant literature, with the most prominent writers ending up abroad. However, in general, literature has retained its unity, based on involvement in the traditions of classical Russian culture, which are present to one degree or another in the works of I.A. Bunina, V.V. Nabokova, I.I. Shmeleva, G.I. Gazdanova, G.V. Ivanova, V.F. Khodasevich and O.E. Mandelstam, M.A. Bulgakova, B.L. Pasternak, M. Gorky, M. Sholokhov. It was this line of Russian literature that earned it in the 20th century. world recognition.

The last great examples of Russian prose were given by A.I. Solzhenitsyn, who managed to give a second wind to the classic Russian novel. In the field of poetry, the work of I. Brodsky has received worldwide recognition.

The path traveled by Russian literature in the 20th century testifies to its enduring global significance and inexhaustible creative possibilities.


When a person is absorbed in the contemplation of some object or phenomenon (and it does not matter - natural or cultural), then he perceives what he contemplates holistically, distracting from the details and nuances, that is, from the entire mechanics of structuring the object - what science does. When he tries to comprehend the impression he received, then, remembering the holistic image of what he saw, he nevertheless revives in his memory the most important and essential, trying to isolate the root and core of the object. And if you manage to grab this root, then integrity is restored. This root is the originality of an object, that is, the most dense condensation of its unique and original properties in minimal features and characteristics.
Vladimir Dahl's dictionary gives the most concentrated understanding of the word “original”, which does not contain unnecessary semantic overtones: “existent by itself or from itself, by its own forces. Strictly speaking, God alone is original, but this is the name for the independent personality and properties of a person, in contrast to everything imitative , especially his creative talents, genius. To exist independently, to live an original, self-essential life.”
This Dalevian “strictly speaking” is the essence of originality, in which the absolute ontology of the created world is revealed. Since created being is not independent, but is a borrowed being, the originality of the created, and therefore its independence and originality, is revealed only in imitation of the Creator-God - the true root of originality. Imitation within the created world means loss of originality and independence, which means doom to a secondary existence.
Based on Dahl’s interpretations, we can say that the self-existent world of Plato’s ideas is self-existent, which is an imperishable image of the “transient” existence of the mortal world. And the world does not fall apart only because there are grains of originality in it - elements of eternity that hold together the chaos of a non-uniform existence. The harmony of the Greek cosmos is the harmony of ideal (that is, original) geometric quantities that form the aesthetic beauty of the universe.
The Old Testament laments are a longing for the original Yahweh leaving the Jewish people. “Why, Lord, do you stand afar off, hiding Yourself during sorrow?” - the desperate questions of the psalmist, whose soul is constantly engulfed in the darkness of God-forsakenness, that is, a non-original existence.
In Christianity, the created world, naturally, is not original, but it receives existential power thanks to energetic participation in the original God. And only due to the manifested originality of God in the world in the images of God, created existence receives the measure, harmony and order it needs. Just gets the opportunity to be.
So, without identity there is no existence in the world. The subject of our interest is the cultural identity of the people, the Russian people, first of all. How to comprehend it, how to discover it and cash it, how to make it the life-giving source of national existence?

The intelligent gaze penetrates through the chaos of the endless facets of an object to its hidden, ineffable essence, which, removed from the dark depths of the object, appears as obvious, transparent and accessible. Once upon a time, it was in this way that V. Rozanov got to the very core of Russian identity, saying in the article “L.N. Tolstoy and the Russian Church” that “The temple completely replaces the gymnasium, school, university, book and science for our people.” With all the shocking power of these words (shocking, first of all, the secular-liberal “enlightened” consciousness), Rozanov still discerned the most original and even essential feature of Russian national existence.
How does this temple replace the university, replace the book, and even science itself? What an absurdity! Isn’t the temple keeper the source of books, enlightenment, and culture? - conservative zealots of piety will ask in bewilderment. And the anti-church intelligentsia will gloatingly exclaim at these words of Rozanov that, they say, it is correct, the church has always been an obstacle to knowledge, reason, enlightenment, which is why the Russian people are so dark and uneducated.
The conservatives are right, of course, because historically (and...

  1. New topic. Teacher's word.

    1. Introduction. Dictionary:

Questions for students:

What does the word intelligentsia mean?

What does the word ideal mean?

What does the word raznochinets mean?

What does the word revolutionary mean?

What does the word liberal mean?

Intelligentsia – people of mental labor with education and special knowledge in various fields of science, technology, and culture.

Revolutionary - a person who makes a revolution, opens up new paths in some area of ​​life, in science, in production.

Raznochinets - V pre-revolutionary Russia: comes from a petty bureaucracy, engaged in mental work. Various ranks: teachers, doctors, engineers, etc.

    1. Historical and literary process.

In Russia, literature has always been in alliance with the liberation movement. The powerless situation of one part of the population (peasants) against the backdrop of the easy life of the noble class helped to attract attention to the problem of serfdom on the part of enlightened and humane representatives of the educated stratum, prompting their sympathy and compassion.First of all, this applied to writers.

Inevitable clashes and ideological conflicts were hidden in the very essence of Russian life, and a writer who penetrated into this essence could not help but notice them. Many Russian writers did not share revolutionary beliefs. Everyone, however, agreed that fundamental changes were needed in Russia. The West has already gone through a series of revolutionary upheavals, but Russia has not yet experienced them. The revolutions that died down in the West brought people more disappointments than joys.The best hopes turned out to be unjustified.

The greatest innovation of Russian literature lies in the interweaving of its destinies with the destinies of the Russian revolution. By the end of the 19th century, Russia had accumulated such an amount of energy that humanity had never had at any time. And this was attested to by Russian literature.

Pushkin gave Russian literature both a national and universal character. Pushkin is a like-minded person of the first generation of Russian revolutionaries.

The main provisions of the features of the literary process of the second half of the 19th century:

1) Russia faces a choice further paths development, basic questions: “Who is to blame?” and “What should I do?” Decisive democratization fiction. Civic pathos of literature.

2) Specialization of literature: Goncharov, Tolstoy - epics, Levitov, Uspensky - essayists, Ostrovsky - playwright, etc.

3) The plots of the novels are simple, local, family-based, but through the plots the artists of the word rise to universal human problems: the relationship of the hero with the world, the interpenetration of the elements of life, renunciation of personal good, shame for one’s own well-being, epic maximalism, reluctance to participate in the imperfections of the world.

4) The new hero reflects the state of the individual in an era of social transformation; he, like the whole country, is on the path to self-awareness, the awakening of the personal principle. The heroes of different works (Turgenev, Goncharov, Chernyshevsky, Dostoevsky) are polemical in relation to each other, but this feature unites them.

5) Increased demands on a person's personality. Self-sacrifice - national trait. The good of others is supreme moral value. Personality, according to Tolstoy, is represented in the form of a fraction:

moral qualities

Self-esteem

6) Both Tolstoy and Chernyshevsky see the source of Russian strength and Russian wisdom in popular feeling. Human destiny, in unity with the destiny of the people, did not result in the humiliation of the personal principle. On the contrary, at the highest stage spiritual development the hero comes to the people (epic novel “War and Peace”).

3.3. Periodization of Russian literature.

1st period: 1825-1861 – noble;

2nd period: 1861-1895 – raznochinsky;

3rd period: 1895-...proletarian.

Peasant unrest swept across the country. The issue of liberating the peasants has become very urgent. The rise of peasant unrest caused a rise in public opinion.Since 1859 Two historical forces stand out: revolutionary democrats and liberals.

    1. The originality of literature.

The second half of the 19th century is a “golden” time, but unlike the first half, the second half has its own characteristics associated with social conditions. In the literature of the first half of the 19th century, the hero was a nobleman - an “extra” person who approached great things, but was spoiled by his upbringing. By the beginning of the second half of the 19th century, the nobility had exhausted its progressive capabilities and began to revive:Pechorin and Onegin gradually turned into Oblomov.

The nobility leaves the stage political struggle. They are being replaced by commoners. The emergence of commoners on the stage of political struggle did not occur without the merit of Russian literature.Russian literature is the literature of social thought.

And also before thinking people Numerous “whys” related to public life, and to human relationships.Literature has taken the path of a comprehensive study of life.

In the literature of the 19th century, styles and views are closely intertwined, artistic media And artistic ideas. As a result of the interaction of all these trends, realism begins to take shape in Russia as a completely new stage in literature’s understanding of man and his life.The founder of this direction is considered to be A.S. Pushkin. Its basis is the principle of life’s truth, which guides the artist in his work, striving to give a complete and true reflection of life. Critical realism was based on positive ideals- patriotism, sympathy for the oppressed masses, search for positive hero in life, faith in the bright future of Russia.

    Estimates, conclusions.

World significance and national originality of Russian literature of the 19th century. Your opinion about the works known to you on this issue. When studying which school topics can you use the methodology for solving the above problem?

In Russia in the 19th century, literature experienced an unprecedented rise and became an equal part of the cultural process. This era is usually characterized as the “golden age”, the time of the heyday of creativity and the emergence of philosophical thought, the formation of Russian literary language, which took shape largely thanks to A.S. Pushkin. Literary centrism is an important feature. From the works of writers of that time, we learn humanity, patriotism, and study our history. More than one generation of people - Humans - has grown up on this “classic”. Romanticism takes over artistic method, although at the end of the 30s of the XIX century leading place Realism will take over in literature.

Russian literature is distinguished by its humanity, purposefulness and humanity, striving to express its opinion. In Russia, philosophy is individual. One of the main problems is the problem of morality; each author has his own solutions to this problem. Moral issues became the main one and almost all Russians wrote and converged on the formation of high ideals. What is high in Russia is overcoming selfishness and individualism. And the high, active, heroic attitude is the most demanding for Russian writers. In Russia it has never been possible to live a separate destiny. Russian society is always collective. The Russian liter is characterized by moral choices for oneself and for the whole world. Russ the author showed life in community with the whole world. The epic nature of thinking is connected with this: Russian heroes always communicate with the nation; Gogol Tolstoy’s heroes. This soil was very good. favorable for the development of novels. Russ's novels had a great influence on the West. The heroes were colossal; they were not familiar to the reader; the Russians knew how to address the question of existence. But the essence is also the opposite moment when the authors penetrated into the national. In order to consider this issue in more detail, you can turn to Kasyanova’s work “Russian national character"in the book she says that it is typical for a Russian person value setting for example, the ability to achieve a goal. Russia and the West have different goals in life. The idea of ​​cultivating high feelings and ideals is high, and high is selfishness.

The global significance of literature is closely related to national identity: romantics turn to national events, since the 19th century is the century of epoch-making events on a global scale (the War of 1812), these are changes in public consciousness, a pronounced spirit of patriotism. The reforms of 1861 lead to the polarization of social consciousness and the sense of personality finds its expression in the images of literature. For example, the era of Decembrism gives rise to the ideal of a free personality, thus the theme of a free personality becomes central.
