Modern people have stereotypical thinking. When we hear the word "honor", the first associations send us for some reason into the distant past, when the knights defended their own honor and the honor of a beautiful lady in duels. The code of honor was also sacredly observed in the century before last, when there were no longer knights, but honor had to remain unsullied.

It is impossible not to remember that, defending the honor of his wife, his family, our great poet A.S. died in a duel. Pushkin. “I need my name and honor to be inviolable in all corners of Russia,” he said. Many of his heroes were men of honor. Among them is Vladimir Dubrovsky, the protagonist of the novel of the same name. Despite the fact that this unfinished novel is considered an adventure-adventure work, this is not just a story about the dramatic fate of a poor nobleman whose estate was illegally taken away, and the revenge of his son, this is a work of dignity, which strong personalities will never give up, because for them, “a head off their shoulders is better than a desecrated honor.”

The conflict between Troekurov and Dubrovsky Sr. is based solely on "defamed honor", although land interests became the reason for the quarrel between neighbors on estates. The self-willed rich man Troekurov was not very concerned about his honor, because it was replaced by money, power, permissiveness. He is opposed by poor Dubrovsky, who retains his honor and independence, not being afraid of such an all-powerful tyrant as Troekurov. As a matter of fact, it was precisely for this steadfastness that Troekurov respected Dubrovsky, allowing him alone to speak honestly and truthfully in his presence. One day, when Andrei Gavrilovich, for reasons of honor, dares to argue with Troekurov, former friends become enemies, and Troekurov turns into a real scoundrel who intends to teach the “proud Dubrovsky” a lesson in the most cruel way: to deprive him of his home, force him to humiliate himself, ask for forgiveness. But Dubrovsky Sr. does not deviate from his principles, although this costs him not only the estate, but also his life.

Dubrovsky's son Vladimir absorbed the concept of honor with his mother's milk. Having actually arrived at his father's funeral, he "does not intend to endure insult" and is eager to avenge the desecrated honor. He comes to Troekurov's house in the guise of a French teacher and ... falls in love with Troekurov's daughter Masha. As an honest person, he confesses to her not only his love, but also who he really is, although at this moment he is at great risk. But for Masha, honor is also not an empty phrase, and very soon she will prove it.

Having avenged the judge for the dishonest trial of his father, Dubrovsky becomes a robber. But even in the forest, he remains a noble man, because he robs only vile scoundrels, giving money to those in need.

This is where an event takes place that allows Masha to prove her attitude to honor. Hoping for the decency of the fifty-year-old General Vereisky, Masha honestly admits her dislike for him and asks to upset the upcoming wedding, which her father insists on. But the old red tape not only does not feel sympathy for Masha, but also talks about her letter to Kiril Petrovich Dubrovsky, who, angry, only brings the wedding closer. Masha is given in marriage to Vereisky, and Dubrovsky, who tried to steal Masha from the crown, is late. He overtakes Troekurov's carriage already when Masha is married. “You are free,” he says to her, to which Masha answers with approximately the same words that later, in another novel by A.S. Pushkin "Eugene Onegin", Tatyana will say: "But I am given to another, and I will be faithful to him for a century." Yes, and for Masha "a head off her shoulders is better than a desecrated honor." The unfortunate fate tested Masha for the strength of her moral principles, and we see that Masha is not ready to give up on them, because the vow given in the church before God and people is sacred for her.

The concepts of honor, moral principles, self-esteem protection, which A.S. Pushkin in the novel "Dubrovsky" are eternal human values, over which neither times nor people have power. They are important to us today, even if we do not think about it. Willy-nilly, we still do what our conscience tells us to do. Because for us, “a head off our shoulders is better than a dishonored honor.”

essay honor and dishonor in the novel dubrovsky
how the hero of the work defended his honor Dubrovsky Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin
rachchuzhdenie on the theme of honor and dignity dubrovsky conclusion

How do the heroes of the novel understand the words "honor" and "disgrace", how do they defend their dignity and what does the clash of their views on life lead to?

Hypothesis

I believe that in order to be considered a person of honor, it is necessary to have high moral qualities, not to discredit your name with bad deeds, not to violate the moral laws by which society lives, and to command the respect of others not only by speeches, but also by actions, deeds, deeds. But sometimes it is enough for a person to stumble once (that is, to abandon his word, betray, slander someone), and now he has already become known as a dishonorable person. Returning honor is difficult, and sometimes impossible. Therefore, they say: “Take care of honor from a young age,” from the very beginning of life.

Study plan

I read the novel by A.S. Pushkin "Dubrovsky"
I got acquainted with the lexical meaning of the words "honor", "disgrace", "chastity"
I analyzed the episodes of the novel and saw how the characters relate to honor, and what the word "honor" means for each of them.
Made conclusions.

Study

I saw that for Kiril Petrovich Troekurov the word "honor" means honor and respect that a person has due to wealth, and moral qualities are not taken into account. For Andrei Gavrilovich Dubrovsky, the concept of honor is a spotless reputation, a good name, high moral qualities. It is no coincidence that Pushkin says about him - "poor and independent." We know what the consequences of a quarrel between two old friends were: Troekurov, wanting revenge, seeks, with the help of Shabashkin, an unfair court decision: Kistenevka, Dubrovsky’s estate, which he legally owns, passes to Kirila Petrovich. Dubrovsky himself, feeling his impotence and struck by the injustice that has taken place, goes crazy. But Troekurov is not satisfied with the outcome of this case. He did not achieve this. Humanity and compassion awakened even in Troekurov's rough heart, but, as we remember, the real laws of life turned out to be stronger. And the heir to the conflict, the beginning of which was laid by the old Dubrovsky, becomes his son. Young Dubrovsky is another generation of the novel. Vladimir's spiritual impulses often do not coincide with life's requirements. In order to restore his father's mental health, the son had to take up litigation, but he, as a decent person, considered his cause right and did not take any steps. All this leads to a sad outcome. And Dubrovsky is driven precisely by offended dignity, an insult to family honor. But having become a robber, Vladimir Andreevich remains a just person. Which of the landowners is afraid of Dubrovsky the Robber? Does he, having become the chieftain of a band of robbers, preserve the nobility of his deeds? Dubrovsky the robber is terrible only for rich and eminent nobles. He is a kind of Russian Robin Hood, fair, disinterested and generous. Dubrovsky becomes an intercessor for the offended, turns into a hero for people of all classes. The story of the landowner Globova is indicative in this respect. She describes Dubrovsky as a noble man, a man of honor. Indicative here are the individual statements of Prince Vereisky about the "glorious robber" and the "romantic hero", which Troekurov did not like, just as he did not like the question of the "burnt building", the former estate of the Dubrovskys. The sympathy and sympathy of many characters in the novel is clearly on the side of the young hero.

Result

Thus, we have two people who differ not only in social status, characters, but also in their views on such a moral concept as honor, human dignity. Pushkin himself believed that "there are virtues higher than the nobility of the family, namely: personal dignity." But, unfortunately, in the eyes of society, dignity is most often precisely the wealth of a person, power and connections, and the proud Dubrovskys remain outside the general law. They are “allowed” to exercise their character within “reasonable limits”. However, according to Pushkin, it is impossible to remain “outside the general law” indefinitely. Sooner or later you have to choose: stand up for your honor or, turning a blind eye to insult, accept the rules by which society lives. The agreement between the haughty Troyekurov and his poor friend and neighbor is blown up by a quarrel. My sympathies, of course, are on the side of the Dubrovskys. How do Pushkin's heroes understand honor and dishonor? Troekurov: dishonor, when someone allows himself to act in his own way, without listening to your opinion, which means not showing due honor and respect; dishonor - to endure a remark from a less rich and noble landowner, thereby dropping one's authority. A.G. Dubrovsky: dishonor - to endure insults from rich petty tyrants, swallow insults, not defend one's human dignity. Vladimir Dubrovsky: dishonor - to leave an unrighteous act without vengeance, without punishment, to endure lawlessness. As you can see, everyone is true to his concept of honor. Answering the question why Dubrovsky, the noble defender of the idea of honor, the rights of the human person, does not succeed, I can say that the noble impulses of the hero constantly collide with the laws of society, with generally accepted rules, which, with all the desire, Dubrovsky is not able to defeat. The dignity of the individual is valued by society less than the dignity of the nobility of the family.

Honor and dishonor

A. S. Pushkin once said the following phrase: “There are virtues higher than the nobility of the family, namely: personal dignity.” He fully revealed it in his adventurous novel "Dubrovsky". This is not just a novel, but a believable story about the dramatic fate of a poor nobleman and his son. In the center of the plot are two families - the Troekurovs and the Dubrovskys.

Once the heads of families were good friends, but after a couple of offensive phrases, they moved away and became fierce enemies.

Andrei Gavrilovich Dubrovsky was a man

Honor and conscience. He was not as rich as Troekurov, but he did not make excessive demands on his peasants and those around him. Dubrovsky's son studied in St. Petersburg at an elite military school.

He did not need anything and lived in a big way, which testifies to the breadth of the soul of Andrei Gavrilovich. The opponent of the honest nobleman was the greedy and cruel master Kirila Petrovich Troekurov. His children also did not know refusal in anything, but he completely controlled their lives and established his own rules in everything.

The neighbors were afraid of Kiril Petrovich, because they heard a lot from the peasants about his tyranny and self-will. No one dared to contradict him, and if anyone got in his way, he repented until the end of his life. Only Andrey Gavrilovich did not grovel before this "ruler of life" and spoke the truth to his face.

Troyekurov was offended by the philistine attitude of his neighbor, and he decided to teach him a lesson. Using his connections in court, he arranged so that Andrei Gavrilovich's estate was taken away, and he was recognized as the new owner. After that, poor Dubrovsky suffered a stroke and died.

In fact, this respectable person suffered because he did not deviate from his principles of honor and stood his ground to the end. During the trial, Troekurov hoped to see remorse on his opponent's face, but he saw only anger and bewilderment. Dubrovsky's son was not inferior to his father in courage. Not wanting to endure resentment, he became a forest robber and kept the deceitful landlords in fear.

Faithful peasants who did not want to go into the service of Troekurov helped him in this. Well describes the courage of this young man one incident that happened to him in the house of Kirila Petrovich.

When the master, according to tradition, decided to test the guest for strength and locked him in a room with a hungry bear, not a single muscle on his face flinched. He just pulled out a gun and shot the beast. But then Troekurov could not have guessed that none other than Dubrovsky's son had settled under his roof. He confessed his true origin only to Marya Kirilovna, whom he loved with all his heart.

This heroine also had high moral principles. Despite the fact that Dubrovsky was sweet to her, she did not resist the will of her father and married the elderly Prince Vereisky. Honor and a sense of duty for her turned out to be above everything, even above love.

In his novel, A. S. Pushkin speaks of eternal values that remain relevant today. Such concepts as loyalty to one's word, a spotless reputation, a good name have always been valuable, and boundless ambition and dominance have always aroused hostility.

Explanation. Before this lesson, in the classroom devoted to the study of Pushkin's novel "Dubrovsky", the children got acquainted with the features of the genre of the novel, with the main conflict, the characters. At home, they prepared answers to the questions (in groups) that will be considered in this lesson.

Introduction. Today in the lesson we will talk about the moral basis of Pushkin's novel "Dubrovsky". As an epigraph to today's topic, I took the words of the author himself: “There are virtues higher than the nobility of the family, namely: personal dignity”.

Our task is to find out how Pushkin's heroes understand the words "honor" and "disgrace", how they defend their dignity and what, ultimately, the clash of their views on life leads to.

First, let's find out the meaning of the words "honor" and "disgrace." Let's see what definitions Ozhegov gives in his explanatory dictionary (on the blackboard).

As you can see, the words “honor” have several meanings, while the word “disgrace” has only one. Why is that? In order to be considered a person of honor, it is necessary to have high moral qualities, not to defame your name with bad deeds, not to violate the moral laws by which society lives, and to command the respect of others not only by speeches, but also by actions, deeds, deeds.

But sometimes it is enough for a person to stumble once (that is, to abandon his word, betray, slander someone), and now he has already become known as a dishonorable person. Returning honor is difficult, and sometimes impossible. Therefore, they say: “Take care of honor from a young age,” from the very beginning of life.

The idea of honor, the protection of the rights of the human person underlay the views of A. S. Pushkin. He believed that the purity of the morals of the people is based precisely on "respect for the personal honor of a citizen."

In the novel "Dubrovsky" the main character - Vladimir - is presented as a noble defender of this idea. But after all, a person is not born immediately honest or dishonest.

- What determines what a person will be like? Which path will he choose?

(From upbringing, from the example of loved ones.)

Let's turn to Pushkin's novel and see what the older generation was like, which influenced the formation of the characters of Vladimir Dubrovsky and Masha Troekurova.

Troekurov Kirila Petrovich

- What was Kirila Petrovich Troekurov famous for?

(Wealth, a noble family and connections that gave him great weight in the province.)

- What characterization of Troekurov does Pushkin give at the beginning of the novel?

(Lordly idleness, pampered by everyone, love for violent amusements, lack of education, limited mind, arrogance, waywardness.)

- Is it possible, judging by this characterization, to speak of Troekurov as a pleasant person to communicate with?

- How do the neighbors treat him? Provincial officials?

(They cater to his whims, tremble before him, do not dare to express their opinion or show discontent.)

- Is Troyekurov satisfied with this position? Why?

(Yes, because it fits his idea of honor.)

- And what does he understand by the word "honor"?

(The honor and respect that a person has due to wealth, and moral qualities are not taken into account.)

Now let's turn to another character in the novel - Andrei Gavrilovich Dubrovsky.

- What character traits of this hero are emphasized by Pushkin?

(Independence, courage, impatience, determination.)

- What is his financial and social position?

(Impoverished landowner, retired lieutenant of the guard; he has an old noble name, but no connections and wealth.)

- Why did Troekurov become attached to Dubrovsky and further appreciate his friendship?

(They are old comrades, similar in character and inclination. Troekurov understands that Dubrovsky will not fawn over him like the others. To some extent, he likes the pride of Dubrovsky, who even opposes the wedding of Vladimir and Masha.)

- Make a conclusion: what are A. G. Dubrovsky's ideas about honor?

(A spotless reputation, a good name, high moral character. It is no coincidence that Pushkin says about him - “poor and independent.”)

Thus, we have two people who differ not only in social status, characters, but also in their views on such a moral concept as honor, human dignity.

Pushkin himself believed that "there are virtues higher than the nobility of the family, namely: personal dignity." But, unfortunately, in the eyes of society, dignity is most often precisely the wealth of a person, power and connections, and the proud Dubrovskys remain outside the general law. They are “allowed” to exercise their character within “reasonable limits”.

However, according to Pushkin, it is impossible to remain “outside the general law” indefinitely. Sooner or later you have to choose: stand up for your honor or, turning a blind eye to insult, accept the rules by which society lives.

The agreement between the haughty Troyekurov and his poor friend and neighbor is blown up by a quarrel. Our sympathies, of course, are on the side of Dubrovsky.

- But think about who is to blame for the quarrel that took place in the kennel? Who is right?

(There are no right ones here:

Andrey Gavrilovich, "an ardent hunter", out of envy, allows himself to make too harsh remarks to the owner;

Houndmaster Paramoshka, feeling that he can flatter Troekurov and cheer him up, boldly answers the poor landowner, deliberately trying to offend him;

Troekurov, on the other hand, does not even think that the “impudent remark of a serf” might offend one of his guests, and he laughs out loud.)

We know what the consequences of a quarrel between two old friends were: Troekurov, wanting revenge, seeks, with the help of Shabashkin, an unfair court decision: Kistenevka, Dubrovsky’s estate, which he legally owns, passes to Kirila Petrovich. Dubrovsky himself, feeling his impotence and struck by the injustice that has taken place, goes crazy.

- Is Troekurov satisfied with this outcome? Is this what he was after?

Humanity and compassion awakened even in Troekurov's rough heart, but, as we remember, the real laws of life turned out to be stronger. And the heir to the conflict, the beginning of which was laid by the old Dubrovsky, becomes his son.

The protagonist of the novel Vladimir Dubrovsky.

- Describe Vladimir's life and dreams in the capital(Ch. III).

- Despite outward carelessness, Vladimir Dubrovsky is very similar to his father. How?

(Honest, independent, capable of good deeds, proud, values honor above all else.)

- Why couldn't Vladimir save his father?

(Vladimir's mental impulses often do not coincide with life's requirements. In order to restore his father's mental health, the son had to take up litigation, but he, as a decent person, considered his case to be right and did not take any steps. All this leads to a sad outcome.)

- Why does Dubrovsky become a robber? What drives them?

(The feeling of offended human dignity and family honor, revenge for the father.)

- Which of the landowners is afraid of Dubrovsky the Robber? Does he, having become the chieftain of a band of robbers, preserve the nobility of his deeds?

(Only to rich and eminent nobles. He is a kind of Russian Robin Hood, fair, disinterested and generous. Dubrovsky becomes an intercessor for the offended, turns into a hero for people of all classes. The story of the landowner Globova is indicative in this respect.)

Read the passage from chapter IX. How does Globovoy's story characterize Dubrovsky?

(As a just man, a man of honor.)

- Does everyone in Troekurov's circle agree with this assessment?

(No. For everyone, he, Dubrovsky, is just a robber who has violated the laws of society.)

So, having become a robber, Vladimir Andreevich remains a just person. But why does he not avenge his father, for the offended family honor? Not only that, why does he, in the end, refuse revenge?

(For the love of Masha Troekurova.)

We read his own explanation in chapter XII. Here you can draw students' attention to style: does Vladimir Dubrovsky's speech differ from the language of narration? Guys usually note the artificiality of the speech of the protagonist, her loftiness. Pushkin, as it were, emphasizes his isolation from life.

Humanity in Dubrovsky won over hatred for Troekurov.

Masha Troekurova

- Is Masha worthy of such a sacrifice on the part of Vladimir?

- What influenced her character?(Ch. VIII) ?

(French novels.)

- What features are inherent in Masha?

(Dreaminess, femininity, capable of a strong feeling.)

- Did Marya Kirillovna inherit her father's disposition?

(She is not rude, not quick-tempered, not cruel, maybe a little stubborn.)

And yet Masha is a true daughter of her class. It is characterized by the prejudices of the aristocracy, for example, dismissive indifference to the lower class.

- Remember when Masha pays attention to Deforge not only as a brother's teacher, but as a person?

(The story of the bear. Courage, pride, calmness turned Deforge into the hero of the novel in Masha's eyes.)

- Why, having fallen in love with Dubrovsky, does Masha hesitate to turn to him for help in order to avoid marriage with an unloved person? What was stopping her?

(Dubrovsky is a robber. Turning to him for help means going against society, against generally accepted morality, dishonoring one's name. Escape with a robber is dishonor. Marriage with Vereisky is a personal tragedy, but a good name will remain.)

- Why does Masha refuse the freedom that Dubrovsky offers her? Read the answer of the heroine and comment on her words.

(Masha swore an oath before God, she is the wife of Vereisky. To break a word is to deviate from strict morality. She submits to fate, killing her feelings in herself: as her voice died in prayer before, so now her soul froze.)

let's sum up Results our conversation.

- How do Pushkin's heroes understand honor and dishonor?

Sample answers.

Troekurov: dishonor, when someone allows himself to act in his own way, not listening to your opinion, which means not showing proper honor and respect; dishonor - to endure a remark from a less rich and noble landowner, thereby dropping one's authority.

A. G. Dubrovsky: dishonor - to endure insults from rich tyrants, to swallow insults, not to defend one's human dignity.

Vladimir Dubrovsky: dishonor - to leave an unrighteous act without vengeance, without punishment, to endure lawlessness.

Masha: dishonor - to go against public morality, guided by feeling, desire.

As you can see, everyone is true to his concept of honor.

- Why does the novel end tragically? Why does Dubrovsky, the noble defender of the idea of honor, the rights of the human person, not achieve success?

(The noble impulses of the hero constantly collide with the laws of society, with generally accepted rules, which, with all the desire, Dubrovsky is not able to defeat. The dignity of the individual is valued by society less than the dignity of the nobility of the family.)

Homework(optional):

1. Prepare an oral story "Understanding honor and dishonor by the heroes of the novel."

2. Written work in notebooks “How do you think honor and dishonor are understood today?”

This lesson was only the beginning of a difficult conversation about the personal dignity of a person, about honor, justice and mercy. In the following classes, we will get acquainted with the different points of view of other writers of the 19th century on moral problems.

Honor and dishonor as a moral conflict in the novel by A.S. Pushkin "Dubrovsky"

Epigraph of the lesson: “There are virtues higher than the nobility of the family, namely: personal dignity”(A.S. Pushkin. “Rebuttals to criticism”).

On the desk:

Honor- 1. The moral qualities of a person worthy of respect and pride.

2. A good, spotless reputation of a person, a good name.

3. Chastity, purity.

4. Honor, respect.

dishonor- desecration of honor, insult.

Chastity- strict morality, purity of soul.

Our task is to find out how Pushkin's heroes understand the words "honor" and "disgrace", how they defend their dignity and what, ultimately, the clash of their views on life leads to.

First, let's find out the meaning of the words "honor" and "disgrace." Let's see what definitions Ozhegov gives in his explanatory dictionary (on the blackboard).

The idea of honor, the protection of the rights of the human person underlay the views of A.S. Pushkin. He believed that the purity of the morals of the people is based precisely on "respect for the personal honor of a citizen."

In the novel "Dubrovsky" the main character - Vladimir - is presented as a noble defender of this idea. But after all, a person is not born immediately honest or dishonest.

- What determines what a person will be like? Which path will he choose?

(From upbringing, from the example of loved ones.)

Let's turn to Pushkin's novel and see what the older generation was like, which influenced the formation of the characters of Vladimir Dubrovsky and Masha Troekurova.

Troekurov Kirila Petrovich

- What was Kirila Petrovich Troekurov famous for?

(Wealth, a noble family and connections that gave him great weight in the province.)

- What characterization of Troekurov does Pushkin give at the beginning of the novel?

(Lordly idleness, pampered by everyone, love for violent amusements, lack of education, limited mind, arrogance, waywardness.)

- Is it possible, judging by this characterization, to speak of Troekurov as a pleasant person to communicate with?

- How do the neighbors treat him? Provincial officials?

(They cater to his whims, tremble before him, do not dare to express their opinion or show discontent.)

- Is Troyekurov satisfied with this position? Why?

(Yes, because it fits his idea of honor.)

- And what does he understand by the word "honor"?

(The honor and respect that a person has due to wealth, and moral qualities are not taken into account.)

Now let's turn to another character in the novel - Andrei Gavrilovich Dubrovsky.

- What character traits of this hero are emphasized by Pushkin?

(Independence, courage, impatience, determination.)

- What is his financial and social position?

(Impoverished landowner, retired lieutenant of the guard; he has an old noble name, but no connections and wealth.)

- Why did Troekurov become attached to Dubrovsky and further appreciate his friendship?

- Draw a conclusion: what are A.G.'s ideas about honor? Dubrovsky?

(A spotless reputation, a good name, high moral character. It is no coincidence that Pushkin says about him - “poor and independent.”)

Thus, we have two people who differ not only in social status, characters, but also in their views on such a moral concept as honor, human dignity.

The agreement between the haughty Troyekurov and his poor friend and neighbor is blown up by a quarrel. Our sympathies, of course, are on the side of Dubrovsky.

- But think about who is to blame for the quarrel that took place in the kennel? Who is right?

(There are no right ones here:

Houndmaster Paramoshka, feeling that he can flatter Troekurov and cheer him up, boldly answers the poor landowner, deliberately trying to offend him;

Troekurov, on the other hand, does not even think that the “impudent remark of a serf” might offend one of his guests, and he laughs out loud.)

- Is Troekurov satisfied with this outcome? Is this what he was after?

The protagonist of the novel Vladimir Dubrovsky.

- Describe Vladimir's life and dreams in the capital(Ch. III).

- Despite outward carelessness, Vladimir Dubrovsky is very similar to his father. How?

(Honest, independent, capable of good deeds, proud, values honor above all else.)

- Why couldn't Vladimir save his father?

- Why does Dubrovsky become a robber? What drives them?

(The feeling of offended human dignity and family honor, revenge for the father.)

- Which of the landowners is afraid of Dubrovsky the Robber? Does he, having become the chieftain of a band of robbers, preserve the nobility of his deeds?

Read the passage from chapter IX. How does Globovoy's story characterize Dubrovsky?

(As a just man, a man of honor.)

- Does everyone in Troekurov's circle agree with this assessment?

(No. For everyone, he, Dubrovsky, is just a robber who has violated the laws of society.)

So, having become a robber, Vladimir Andreevich remains a just person. But why does he not avenge his father, for the offended family honor? Not only that, why does he, in the end, refuse revenge?

(For the love of Masha Troekurova.)

Humanity in Dubrovsky won over hatred for Troekurov.

Masha Troekurova

- Is Masha worthy of such a sacrifice on the part of Vladimir?

- What influenced her character?(Ch. VIII) ?

(French novels.)

- What features are inherent in Masha?

(Dreaminess, femininity, capable of a strong feeling.)

- Did Marya Kirillovna inherit her father's disposition?

(She is not rude, not quick-tempered, not cruel, maybe a little stubborn.)

And yet Masha is a true daughter of her class. It is characterized by the prejudices of the aristocracy, for example, dismissive indifference to the lower class.

- Remember when Masha pays attention to Deforge not only as a brother's teacher, but as a person?

(The story of the bear. Courage, pride, calmness turned Deforge into the hero of the novel in Masha's eyes.)

- Why, having fallen in love with Dubrovsky, does Masha hesitate to turn to him for help in order to avoid marriage with an unloved person? What was stopping her?

- Why does Masha refuse the freedom that Dubrovsky offers her? Read the answer of the heroine and comment on her words.

let's sum up results our conversation.

- How do Pushkin's heroes understand honor and dishonor?

Sample answers.

A.G. Dubrovsky: dishonor - to endure insults from rich tyrants, to swallow insults, not to defend one's human dignity.

Vladimir Dubrovsky: dishonor - to leave an unrighteous act without vengeance, without punishment, to endure lawlessness.
