Friendship.
The problem of friendship, true and false, the role of friendship in human life. What does true friendship mean?
As a child, I thought that my "adult life" would be in a different environment, I would be surrounded by completely different people, nothing would remain of the present. But in fact, my peers stayed with me. Friends of youth turned out to be the most faithful, everlasting. The circle of acquaintances has grown a lot, but real friends are old ones. True friends are acquired at a young age.
How should you treat friends? What is real friendship for?

What does it mean to be friends? What unites people? How do people choose friends? What is true friendship? What's the difference between friends and pals? What role does friendship play in a person's life?
M.Yu. Lermontov "A Hero of Our Time"
Friendship plays an important role in a person's life, because a friend is a person who will always be there, help in trouble, share grief and joy. Life has repeatedly pushed Pechorin, the protagonist of the novel by M.Yu. Lermontov "Hero of Our Time", with people who treated him in a friendly way. We know of at least three such people from the novel. For example, Maxim Maksimych treated him like a son, Dr. Werner understood him perfectly, Grushnitsky shared the most secret and saw in him an example to follow. With each of these people, he could build strong friendships. However, he refused to believe in friendship: he believed that in friendship one person is always the slave of another, and he did not want to be either a slave or a master. This attitude towards friendship made him a lonely person and did not allow him to be sincere with these people. His indifference made these people disillusioned with him. If Pechorin had been open and appreciated those around him, then his fate could have turned out differently. Sometimes it is so important to hear friendly advice and feel support. In his life, this support was not, so he died somewhere far away, all alone.
Examples of true friendship inspire and uplift. It is for this reason that we pick up a book and plunge into the world invented by the author.
Not everyone was lucky enough to know what real friends are in life, but literally everyone can see friendship on the rustling pages and learn loyalty and courage, sincerity and solidarity.
Friendship is very different, however, regardless of the circumstances, it is always based on unconditional loyalty and comradely devotion.

Friendship between Stolz and Oblomov
Andrei Ivanovich Stolz and Ilya Ilyich Oblomov are completely different natures and look like two opposites, but if you look closely, it becomes clear that these are sides of the same coin.
Just two in love with the world, inquisitive children grew up in completely different conditions.
Little Andrei was given almost complete freedom of action, it was possible to explore the world and prepare for whatthen his life "will acquire other, broader dimensions."
Ilya, on the other hand, was a hothouse boy, “loved” by his parents, which suppressed any desire to act. Their friendship was built on tremulous empathy, they sincerely wanted to help each other.
Adult Stolz tried in every possible way to move Oblomov,
Ilya Ilyich, on the contrary, instilled a desire for a calm, quiet, "Oblomov life."

Examples of true friendship from foreign literature
Dr. Watson wanted to find cheap accommodation in the "London wilderness" for a moderate rent.
Therefore, initially acquaintance and friendship with Sherlock Holmes was built on financially favorable conditions. They rented an apartment together.
A little time later, a friendship began, or rather, a powerful one between these two characters.
Watson is a cheerful but dull man who has just returned from Afghanistan.
He has not yet found an occupation that would compensate for the adrenaline to which he is unconditionally accustomed.
And this oppresses him, although behind the mask of a “true gentleman” this is almost not noticeable.
Sherlock, on the other hand, is phlegmatic, weighed down by occasional melancholy.
He is either active or passive, or he works tirelessly day and night, or he cannot get off his armchair and morphine for weeks.
In general, it was an artistic nature with an unstable psyche.
Watson, as it were, balanced him, was a reliable companion and.
He courageously endured all his mockery about his "mediocre mind" and at the same time enjoyed the adrenaline that accompanied their adventures.
Sherlock really needed this friendship. Sometimes only she united his boiled mind with reality.
At the same time, each of them was sincere and helped a friend more than a dozen times.
Friendship between Frodo and Sam
Literally every one of us has watched The Lord of the Rings or read a novel. There are many examples of true friendship in this work.
In principle, literally the entire trilogy is filled with the idea of friendship and self-sacrifice. Take Frodo and Sam, for example.
From a modest, reclusive gardener, Sam becomes a faithful squire and companion.
He tries to please and support his friend in everything, observing what kind of burden he has to carry (Ring of Omnipotence).
This is a great example of a relationship where only Sam's friendly feelings save the whole situation in principle:
- Being captured by Faramir, he stands up for a friend
- Finds bread, the only food that Gollum threw into the abyss
- Fighting the giant spider Shelob
- Pulls Frodo from the clutches of the orcs
Nobody calls him a hero, he doesn’t need it, he’s just a real friend.
This friendship, in fact, is unequal, Sam gives much more than he receives. But from a timid dreamer, he becomes a bold and courageous warrior and an integral part of great events.
Even the last lines of the novel end with the words of Sam, who, as it were, puts an end to his adventure.
He did everything he could for a friend and good won. Examples of true friendship from literature for an essay are easily found on the pages of this epic.

Friendship of great people
It is always difficult for real talents to find a place for themselves in real life.
And even more difficult - a sincere comrade, always ready to come to the rescue. But some of them are more fortunate than others.
When they met, Helen was fourteen years old, and Mark Twain was in his fifties.
The girl reminded him of his own daughter, so they became friends and spent a lot of time together.
Helen, after suffering from scarlet fever, was blind and deaf, every social interaction it was hard for her.
Twain was very supportive, admired her resilience and tried never to emphasize her physical flaws.
Keller herself admitted that next to him she felt free, and not like a cripple.
Thanks to his help, the girl was educated in college and became the first deaf-blind person with a bachelor's degree.
This gave a powerful impetus to her career, which was 100% successful.
She became a writer, politician and activist. One might say, even a national heroine for the same people with physical disabilities.
Helen established the process of teaching the deaf-blind-mute in America.
She set out the basis of her story in the play “The Miracle Worker”. Her life really became a miracle, thanks to her sincere friendship with M. Twain.
This example of true friendship from history says that you should never lose heart if there is a reliable shoulder nearby.
It turns out that the very turning point that divided Ella's life into “before and after” fell on a performance at the Mocambu Club in 1955.
The problem was that the owner of the establishment simply did not consider such music promising.
Monroe witnessed the conversation and stood up for the talented artist: “I will sit at the center table and the press will be interested in any case,” the blonde suggested.
After that, Ella woke up as a star and she chose where to perform.
This was the beginning of a reverent friendship between the two most talented girls of their time.
Conan Doyle and Houdini
Yes, these two famous gentlemen were friends.
They could not find a consensus only on the subject of spiritualism.
Houdini was an ardent opponent of mediums and mystical salons, fashionable at that time.
The illusionist himself knew many tricks, so he was in a hurry to destroy the halo of mystery of another mystical diva associated with the world of the dead.
Doyle, on the contrary, firmly believed in such a thing after he “could” contact his late son.
Houdini, throughout their friendship, tried in every possible way to convince his comrade, but, apparently, his attempts were in vain.

They were considered madmen and dissuaded in every possible way, but in the end everything worked out and they achieved.
The guys have many plans and they believe in themselves, because friendship can overcome any obstacle!
The elderly Dan Peterson was widowed and lost all passion for life. He was tormented by depression, and he did not smile at all.
In a supermarket, an American accidentally met a four-year-old girl, Nora, who had a birthday.
She herself spoke to him, chatted friendly and took a picture for memory.
Thanks to this photo and the ubiquitous social networks, the girl's mother became aware of the sad state of health of Mr. Peterson, and she invited him to visit.
Thus began a friendship between two such different people - a little girl and an elderly man.
In fact, the baby found a second grandfather. They eat sweets and give each other gifts.

They even celebrated Thanksgiving together. Fortunately, a chance meeting turned into a sincere, healing friendship.

"FRIENDSHIP AND HOSTILITY"
Official comment:
The direction aims at reasoning about the value of human friendship, about ways to achieve mutual understanding between individuals, their communities and even entire nations, as well as about the origins and consequences of enmity between them.

A. S. Pushkin novel "Eugene Onegin"
Alexander Sergeevich presents his attitude to the partnership to the reader through the characters of the novel"Eugene Onegin" . Two "friends", Onegin and Lensky, in their communication show us that a friend is a very ambiguous and contradictory concept. In the end, we even begin to doubt whether Evgeny and Vladimir are friends or enemies. In the dialogues of the characters, the presence of the author is felt, he is not a simple silent observer, he is a direct participant in the events, we catch his attitude to friendship in the conversations of the characters. The friendship of Onegin and Lensky happened, in the words of Pushkin himself, "there is nothing to do." Indeed, they were completely opposite in character, with different life experience, with different aspirations.
They were united by the situation in the rural wilderness. Both of them were burdened by the imposed communication from their neighbors, both were smart enough (in relation to Lensky, it would be more correct to say that he was educated). Both heroes are young, so they find common topics for conversations. Friends reflect on Rousseau's "social contract", about science, about moral problems, that is, about everything that occupied the minds of progressive people of that time. But Pushkin emphasizes the complex relationship between the hero and the society that shaped him. An accidental quarrel (Onegin aroused jealousy in Lensky at the Larins' evening) is only an occasion for a duel. The reason for Lensky's death is much deeper: Lensky, with his naive, romantic view of the world, cannot withstand a collision with life. Onegin, in turn, is unable to resist the generally accepted morality, which says that it is shameful to refuse a duel. Can such a relationship be called true friendship?Regardless of beliefs, each person strives to communicate with his own kind. Only a mentally deranged person can fundamentally escape from some particular social group but from people in general. A holy hermit may retire, but he communicates with the whole world, praying for him. The solitude of Onegin was painful for him, and he was glad that at least one person was found with whom he was not disgusted to communicate. Moreover, such communication was necessary for Vladimir Lensky. Onegin was the ideal listener. He was mostly silent, without interrupting the poet, and if he objected, then justifiably, and was interested in the subject of the conversation. Lensky was in love, and like any lover, he needed a person to whom he could pour out his love, especially if poetry was written at the same time, they had to be read to someone. Thus, it is clear that in other conditions Onegin and Lensky would hardly have begun to communicate so closely, but human relationships are special because different situations bring people together and separate them sometimes in a completely paradoxical way. The difference between Lensky and Onegin was not as fundamental as their difference with the neighboring landowners, who considered Lensky half-Russian, and Onegin - a dangerous eccentric and freemason. Speaking extremely generally, Onegin and Lensky were opposites within the same system, and their neighbors generally went beyond the system. That is why Vladimir and Evgeny instinctively found each other and united. That their friendship was superficial and largely formal is proved by their duel. What kind of friend would shoot with a friend, and even in addition, without any explanation ?! In reality, very little connected them, and it was easy enough to break this little.
True friendship is always based on common hobbies and interests, mutual understanding, trust and sympathy. It is important that true friendship is the absence of any competition between people. But precisely such relations did not exist between Onegin and Lensky.
Of course, there would not have been a duel that ended with the death of Lensky, there would have been no tragedy and, as a result, the continuation of the novel. Indeed, according to some researchers (and I agree with them), it was the duel that became the turning point in the fate of Onegin, which made him take a different look at life and rethink a lot.
But the main reason, in my opinion, why the friendship of Onegin and Lensky led to such tragic denouement lies in the fact that the relationship between them from the very beginning is not real.
M. Yu. Lermontov novel "A Hero of Our Time"
The theme of friendship is also heard in the novel."Hero of our time" . Is friendship possible in Pechorin's life, and how does he understand it? main character?
“Friendship, friendship,” we read from V. Dahl in “ explanatory dictionary living Great Russian language," is the mutual attachment of two or more people, their close connection; in a good sense, disinterested, steadfast affection, based on love and respect ... ”We see such affection in the ingenuous staff captain - the first to tell us about Pechorin. Despite the fact that Maxim Maksimych considers him a strange person and clearly does not approve of what Grigory is doing with Bela, he is attached to Pechorin and considers him his friend: “We were friends”, “there were bosom friends”. Maksim Maksimych's ideas are not justified. Yes, Pechorin does not hide his character from the staff captain and does not promise friendship: “I am a fool or a villain, I don’t know; ... my soul is corrupted by light, my imagination is restless, my heart is insatiable; everything is not enough for me: I get used to sadness just as easily as to pleasure, and my life becomes emptier day by day. During the meeting, it is so cold from Pechorin, Maxim Maksimych is so offended and upset, for the first time he violated the rules for the sake of the meeting: “Am I not the same? .. What should I do? to each his own way ... ".
Pechorin's meeting with Grushnitsky will take place in a completely different way: “We met old friends,” but from the very first lines of the description it is clear that completely different people are hidden under friendly relations. And indeed, Grushnitsky is a man whose main pleasure is to "produce an effect" and who "importantly drapes himself in extraordinary feelings" and plays disappointed. Pechorin, on the other hand, is disappointment itself, this is his illness, and he cannot but feel the artificiality of the Junker and for this reason not accept him: “I understood him, and he does not love me for this.”
Perhaps the theme of friendship is most clearly revealed in A Hero of Our Time in relations with Werner. Perhaps Pechorin could have become friends with the doctor, they are so similar in many ways. From the moment Werner and Pechorin “distinguished each other in the crowd,” their relationship reminds others so much of her. "Werner is a wonderful person", the main character knows the strengths and weaknesses of the doctor perfectly. What brought the two together? “We are rather indifferent to everything, except ourselves”, “we soon understood each other and became friends.” But are they capable of friendship? Grigory denies true friendships, friendship does not exist in Pechorin's life, because it requires self-forgetfulness, openness, trust - all that the protagonist of the novel does not have. He says that "of two friends, one is always the slave of the other," and, quite possibly, this is not a belief, but a desire to hide the inability to let anyone into one's heart.
L. N. Tolstoy novel "War and Peace"
(Andrey Bolkonsky and Pierre Bezukhov)
The first scenes of the novel paint us a very unambiguous, at first glance, picture. So, Prince Andrei Bolkonsky is certainly a welcome guest in secular society. He is handsome, smart, refined, his manners are impeccable, he is politely cold. An ideal combination for a society that, fortunately, does not have the slightest influence on it.
All in the same "picture", Pierre, who appeared, seems to be an unsuccessful caricature of a secular person. He is kind, sincere and disinterested - these, no doubt, excellent qualities already make him a black sheep, because where there is a place for self-interest, big money and hypocrisy, there is no place for spiritual openness. In addition, Pierre is absent-minded and not very attractive in appearance. Trying at first to join this society, to become a part of it, Bezukhov demonstrates not best manners, which completely discourages sympathy for itself from the majority of the elite.
But behind these images various people there is much more than what "light" sees in them.
They are both alien to the society in which they find themselves. Both of them are above him in their thoughts and moral values, only Pierre needs time to understand this. Andrei is confident in his own, special purpose, and an empty, unchanging life is not for him. He also tries to convince Pierre, who is the only one he respects in that environment due to the contrast with the empty elite, to stay away from this life. But Pierre is nevertheless convinced of this on his own, from his own experience. He, so simple and unpretentious, is difficult to resist the temptation.
Despite his simplicity, Pierre is essentially very wise, and this quality is one of the things that make him a close friend of Bolkonsky. Their conversations, in which they share everything that they keep in themselves the rest of the time, have an important influence on the train of thought of both. And even though their positions in some cases are strikingly different, each recognizes the opinion of the other as having a right to exist.
Let each of them go through many ups and even more downs, and Andrei and Pierre, through their disappointments in life, do not harden, but continue to believe in goodness and seek justice. Burned by relations with Helen, Pierre, nevertheless, does not look for the guilty and, which strikes the depths of his soul, sincerely, with all his might and to the detriment of his own feelings, rejoices at the appearance of Andrey's feelings for Natasha. And then, when everything ends, he in no way tries his luck, but only provides disinterested support to Natasha and wholeheartedly wants Andrei to forgive her. It seems that he suffers no less than Andrei himself, and yet his life is meaningless and sulfur for him.
The friendship between Andrei and Pierre can be considered true, beautiful and immortal, because the soil on which it stood was the most worthy and noble. There was not a drop of self-seeking in this friendship, and neither money nor influence was a guideline for any of them either in their relationships or in the life of each separately. This is what should unite people if they live in a society where all feelings can be bought and sold so coldly.
Fortunately, in Tolstoy's novel, these characters found each other, thereby finding salvation from moral loneliness and finding worthy ground for the development of morality and real ideas that should not be lost even by a minority of people.
Pierre considered Bolkonsky "a model of all perfections precisely because Prince Andrei combined to the highest degree all those qualities that Pierre did not have and which can be most closely expressed by the concept of willpower." The friendship between Bolkonsky and Bezukhov passed the test. Pierre was in love with Natasha Rostova at first sight. And Bolkonsky too. When Andrei proposed to Rostova, Pierre did not betray his feelings. He was sincerely pleased with the happiness of his friend. How could L.N. Tolstoy to allow his favorite hero to be dishonest? Pierre showed nobility in relations with Andrei Bolkonsky. His awareness of the relationship between Rostova and Kuragin did not allow him to betray his friend. He did not laugh at Natasha, let alone Andrei. Although he could easily ruin their happiness. However, devotion to friendship, honesty in the heart did not allow Pierre to become a scoundrel.
I. S. Turgenev novel "Fathers and Sons"
In the novel"Fathers and Sons" published in 1862,I.S. Turgenev revealed the image of a new hero of Russian life. Bazarov is a nihilist, a revolutionary democrat. This is a strong personality, able to influence other people. Bazarov is self-confident, endowed with a natural mind, educated. In the novel, he is shown accompanied by a younger, naive and ingenuous friend - Arkady Kirsanov. An analysis of the relationship between the two characters allows us to understand their characters, the strength of their convictions and the strength of friendly affection.
At the very beginning of the novel, Bazarov is not so alone, he has an ally - his friend Arkady Kirsanov. In the first chapters of the novel, Arkady appears as a faithful follower of Bazarov, a student who listens to his teacher with delight and rapture and shares his views on life. Kirsanov Jr. is convinced of the special purpose of Bazarov. Arkady, of course, values his friendship with Bazarov very much, he is proud of him. This is evidenced by his enthusiastic intonations with which he tells his father, Nikolai Petrovich Kirsanov, about his comrade. Arkady warmly supports Yevgeny in his dispute with Pavel Petrovich. But this is only at the beginning. As the action develops, Arkady gradually cools towards the “raznochinsk views”, which he initially adheres to. Why is this happening? The answer to this question is simple, and the author himself gave it: Turgenev wrote that Arkady basically "sybarized" under the influence of a nature much stronger than himself - under the influence of Bazarov. But the difference between friends was not slow to reveal itself: Bazarov is constantly busy with business, while Arkady does nothing, only sometimes, to unwind, he helps his father. Bazarov is a man of action, which can be seen immediately by his red bare hand. In any situation, in any home, he tries to do his job. His path is the natural sciences, the study of nature and the verification of theoretical discoveries in practice. Bazarov here keeps up with the times, since the passion for science is a typical feature of the cultural life of Russia in the 1860s. Arkady is the absolute opposite. The young man is really not interested in anything. All he aspires to is comfort and peace, which runs counter to Bazarov's attitude to life - not to sit back, work, move.
And the characters of those who for the time being call themselves friends are completely opposite: Arkady is soft and kind, Eugene is proud and proud.
It is no coincidence that they say that truth is born in disputes. Indeed, in a novel that is replete with scenes of ideological disputes, sooner or later the positions of the characters are revealed completely and completely. And then, when the attitude of the characters to various issues of the life of society, the life of the human soul, becomes clear, then the polarity of the characters' characters is revealed. Then the question arises about the authenticity of the friendship of young people. After all, friendship implies, first of all, mutual understanding, and in the case of Bazarov and Arkady, it turns out that they lack mutual understanding. In the course of the novel, it turns out that Bazarov ridicules what is so dear to Arcadia: an open manifestation of warm feelings for relatives and loved ones, admiration for the beauty of nature, the ability to be sad and rejoice to the sound of music, enjoy poetic lines ...
Arkady, having discovered for himself that his life convictions are not similar to those of Bazarov, gradually begins to learn to express his opinion, the opposite of the judgments of the nihilist. Once a dispute between friends came almost to the point of a fight. And in the scene when Bazarov, as if jokingly, spreads out “his long and stiff fingers” to close them around Arkady’s neck, and at the same time he grins “ominously”, there is a share of the true attitude of the nihilist to the “chick”. After all, it was precisely the “chick” that Bazarov considered Arkady to be, while always treating him patronizingly. Bazarov understands that Kirsanov Jr. cannot become his associate: “You are a tender soul, a weakling,” he says to Arkady. And he is right - time very quickly puts everything in its place, and Arkady turns out to belong to the old generation, the generation of "fathers". Pisarev very accurately assesses the reasons for the disagreement between Arkady and Bazarov: “Bazarov’s attitude towards his comrade casts a bright streak of light on his character; Bazarov has no friend, because he has not yet met a person who would not give in to him. Bazarov's personality closes in on itself, because outside of it and around it there are almost no elements related to it at all. Arkady would never be able to merge with the ideas of the new century, so his break with Bazarov is obvious.
Bazarov is the leader in this pair. He treats Arkady condescendingly, patronizingly. Kirsanov called his friend a mentor; he "revered his teacher", considered Bazarov "one of the most remarkable people." The still unformed nature of Arkady is entirely under the influence of Bazarov, who, although he is frank with him, always keeps him on the sidelines. Arkady does not notice this and does not understand. He tells Odintsova about his friend "in such detail and with such enthusiasm that Odintsova turned to him and looked carefully."In disputes with Bazarov, Arkady "usually remained defeated, although he spoke more than his comrade." However, this does not bother him in the least, since he sees in Bazarov a man who "has a great future ahead."
I. A. Goncharov "Oblomov"
In the novel"Oblomov" I.A. Goncharov created images of two people, each of whom is in many ways a typical representative of a certain circle of people, a spokesman for ideas that were close to the corresponding strata of contemporary society. Andrey Stolts and Ilya Oblomov, at first glance, seem to have nothing in common, except for memories of childhood games. And yet, no matter how these characters of Goncharov's novel are assessed, it is impossible to deny that they are connected by sincere, disinterested friendship. What's the matter here?
Indeed, Oblomov and Stolz are strikingly different from each other in their way of life. In Stolz's view, the essence of being lies in movement: "Labor is the image, content, element and purpose of life, at least mine." Oblomov, having not yet begun any business, is already dreaming of peace, which he already has plenty of: "... Then, in honorable inactivity, enjoy a well-deserved rest ...".
For a while, Oblomov and Stolz were brought up together - in a school that Andrei's father kept. But they came to this school, one might say, from different worlds: undisturbed, once and for all established order of life in Oblomovka, similar to a long afternoon nap, and active labor education of a German burgher, interspersed with the lessons of a mother who struggled to instill in her son love and interest in art.
It is also important to note how Oblomov and Stolz relate to life in general. According to Oblomov’s own feeling, his existence is more and more like a fruitless wandering in the forest thicket: no path, no ray of sun ... “Someone seemed to have stolen and buried in his own soul the treasures brought to him by the world and life.” Here is one of Oblomov's main miscalculations - he subconsciously seeks to lay responsibility, his failures, his inaction on someone else: on Zakhar, for example, or on fate. And Stolz "attributed the cause of all suffering to himself, and did not hang it like a caftan on someone else's nail," therefore "he enjoyed joy, like a flower plucked along the way, until he withered in his hands, never drinking the cup to that drop of bitterness which lies at the end of all enjoyment. However, all of the above does not yet shed light on the foundations of strong friendship between people who are so different in their habits and aspirations. Apparently, their sincere, warm attitude to each other is rooted in the fact that both Stolz and Oblomov are inherently worthy people, endowed with many high spiritual qualities. They are necessary to each other, because they complement each other so successfully, they find in each other what is not in themselves.
The friendship between Oblomov and Stolz began during their school years. At the time of their acquaintance, the characters were similar in character and had common hobbies. Little Ilya is depicted as a curious child who was interested in many things. He wanted to know the world and to learn as much new things as possible, even as a young man he was still preparing for the fact that his life would “take on other, broader dimensions”, he was full of various aspirations and hopes, preparing for an important role in society. However, due to the "hothouse", "Oblomov" upbringing and the influence of relatives, the hero remains in place, continuing only to hope and plan, never moving on to action. All Oblomov's activity passes into the world of dreams and dreams, which he himself invents and lives by.
Little Andrei Stoltz was just as curious a child as Ilya, but he was not limited in his knowledge of the world and was even allowed to leave home for a few days. And if in Oblomov upbringing killed an active, active principle, then the formation of Stolz's personality was influenced by the death of his mother, who dearly loved her son. A strict, unemotional father could not give his son all the love and warmth that he lost after the loss of his mother. Apparently, it was this event, coupled with the need, by order of his father, to leave for another city and build a career on his own, made a strong impression on young Andrei Ivanovich. Mature Stoltz is a person who finds it very difficult to understand his feelings, moreover, he does not understand love, since he cannot grasp it with a rational mind. That is why many researchers compare Andrei Ivanovich with an insensitive mechanism, which is fundamentally wrong - in fact, Stolz is no less sincere and kind person than Oblomov (remember how often and absolutely disinterestedly he helps a friend), but all his sensuality is hidden deep inside his soul, incomprehensible and inaccessible even to the hero himself.
The relationship between Stolz and Oblomov begins as a friendship of two very similar personalities in nature and character, but different upbringing makes them completely different and even opposing characters, who, nevertheless, continue to see in each other that important and close that brought them together in school years.
Stolz, at any opportunity, tries to “stir up”, activate Oblomov, force him to act “now or never”, while Ilya Ilyich gradually, unconsciously for both heroes, instills in a friend those same “Oblomov” values that Andrei Ivanovich was so afraid of and to which in eventually came - to a calm, measured, monotonous family life.
The theme of friendship in the novel "Oblomov" is revealed on the example of the relationship between two opposing characters. However, the differences between Oblomov and Stolz are only external in nature, since both of them are individuals who are in constant search of their own happiness, but have not been able to fully open up and realize their full potential. The images of the heroes are tragic, since neither the active Stolz, who is constantly striving forward, nor the passive, living in the illusions of Oblomov, find harmony between the two main principles - rational and sensual, which leads to the death of Ilya Ilyich and internal confusion and even greater confusion of Stolz.
A. Saint-Exupery "The Little Prince"
A speaks about friendship.Saint Exupery right on the first page of your fairy tale"The little Prince" – in dedication. In the author's system of values, the theme of friendship occupies one of the main places. Only friendship can melt the ice of loneliness and alienation, as it is based on mutual understanding, mutual trust and mutual assistance. On earth, the Little Prince learns the real truth that the Fox revealed to him: people can be not only indifferent and alienated, but also necessary to each other, and someone for someone can be the only one in the whole world, and a person’s life “is like the sun will illuminate ", if something will remind you of a friend, and this will also be happiness.
The Little Prince once had a tiny sprout, not like other flowers. Over time, a bud grew on it, which did not open for a long time. When all the petals opened, the baby saw with admiration a real beauty. She turned out to be a difficult character: the guest was a subtle and proud nature. The boy, who took to heart everything that the beauty said, felt unhappy and decided to run away, setting off on a journey.
Telling the story about the flower, the Kid already understood that "it was necessary to judge not by words, but by deeds", - after all, the beauty gave the planet a scent, but he did not know how to rejoice at this and "did not know how to love."
Before the journey, the boy carefully cleaned his planet. When he said goodbye to a beautiful guest, she suddenly asked for forgiveness, wished him happiness and admitted that she loved the Little Prince.
The seventh planet on which the Little Prince ended up was Earth, and it was huge.
At first, the baby did not see anyone on the planet, except for the snake. From her, he learned that not only in the desert, but also among people, it is also lonely. The snake promised to help him on the day when the boy would be sad about his home.
At that moment, Fox appeared. The little prince was going to make friends, but it turned out that the animal must first be tamed. Then “we will need each other ... My life will light up like a sun,” said the Fox.
The fox taught the baby that "you can only learn those things that you tame", and "to tame, you need to be patient." He revealed to the boy an important secret: “Only the heart is vigilant. You can’t see the main thing with your eyes, ”and asked to remember the law:“ you are forever responsible for everyone you tamed. The little prince understood: the beautiful rose is the most precious thing, he gave her all his time and energy, and he is responsible for the rose - after all, he tamed it.
Another important symbol, to which almost the entire work is addressed, is a rose.
The rose is a symbol of love, beauty, femininity. The little prince did not immediately see the true inner essence of beauty. But after talking with the Fox, the truth was revealed to him - beauty only becomes beautiful when it is filled with meaning, content.
The meaning of human life is to comprehend, to get as close as possible to the essence. The souls of the author and the little prince are not shackled by the ice of indifference and deadness. Therefore, a true vision of the world opens up to them: they learn the price of true friendship, love and beauty. This is the theme of “vigilance” of the heart, the ability to “see” with the heart, to understand without words.
The little prince does not immediately comprehend this wisdom. He leaves his own planet, not knowing that what he will look for on different planets will be so close - on his home planet.
People must take care of the cleanliness and beauty of their planet, jointly protect and decorate it, and prevent all living things from perishing. So, gradually, unobtrusively, another important topic arises in the fairy tale - ecological, which is very relevant for our time. It seems that the author of the fairy tale “foresaw” future ecological catastrophes and warned about careful attitude to the native and beloved planet. Saint-Exupery was acutely aware of how small and fragile our planet is. The journey of the Little Prince from star to star brings us closer to today's vision of space, where the Earth, through the negligence of people, can disappear almost imperceptibly. Therefore, the tale has not lost its relevance to this day; therefore its genre is philosophical, for it is addressed to all people, it raises eternal problems.
And one more secret is revealed by the Fox to the baby: “Only the heart is vigilant. You won’t see the most important thing with your eyes... Your Rose is so dear to you because you gave her all your soul... People have forgotten this truth, but don’t forget: you are forever responsible for everyone you tamed.” To tame means to bind oneself to another being with tenderness, love, a sense of responsibility. To tame means to destroy facelessness and indifferent attitude to all living things. To tame means to make the world significant and generous, for everything in it reminds of a beloved being. The narrator also comprehends this truth, and for him the stars come to life, and he hears the ringing of silver bells in the sky, reminiscent of the laughter of the Little Prince. The theme of “expansion of the soul” through love runs throughout the tale.
Together with the little hero, we rediscover for ourselves the most important thing in life, which was hidden, buried by all sorts of husks, but which is the only value for a person. The little prince learns what the bonds of friendship are.
Saint-Exupery also speaks of friendship on the first page of the story. In the author's system of values, the theme of friendship occupies one of the main places. Only friendship can melt the ice of loneliness and alienation, as it is based on mutual understanding, mutual trust and mutual assistance.
G.N. Troepolsky "White Bim Black Ear"
The book tells about the dog Bim, who was a very loyal and loving friend to his owner while they were together. But one day Ivan Ivanovich (that was the name of the owner of Bim) became seriously ill - a fragment left over from the war crawled to his heart, and the owner was taken to Moscow for treatment. And Bim was left alone. How much effort the unfortunate dog spent looking for a friend, how many upheavals, betrayals and insults he had to endure! In the end, he got to the dog-catchers and was locked up in an iron wagon. The next day the owner arrived, but found him already dead in that van, which became a death prison for Beam.
The theme of the story is love for all living things, respect for our smaller brothers, admiration for animals. In the center of all events is the dog Beam of the Gordon Setter breed, the protagonist of the story. Throughout the book, the author admires the intelligence, loyalty and beauty of the dog. Indeed, a person has never had a better friend, and "White Bim Black Ear" proves this once again.
As the inscription at the beginning of the book says, it is dedicated to Alexander Trifonovich Tvardovsky.
The author reveals to the reader the inner world of a dog with all its experiences, joys, questions and misfortunes, and again and again emphasizes the superiority of these animals: “And on the fallen yellow grass stood a dog - one of the best creations of nature and a patient person.” Again, he points out that without these true friends, our life would be much more boring and aimless: “... a split personality in prolonged loneliness is to some extent inevitable. For centuries, a dog has saved a person from this.
The events of the story unfold in the Tambov region - in the city and in the countryside. The year of events is not indicated, but, for sure, post-war times are described.
The story combines a simple, everyday language - devils, rednecks, a fool, a bulldozer; as well as professional hunting words - shuttle, bandolier, hound, arp, setter.
In my opinion, the most striking and memorable moment in the book is the description of the hunt by Ivan Ivanovich and Bim. Probably, the author was also a hunter, otherwise who, if not a person with such a passion, can so accurately describe all the events of the hunt.
First of all, Troepolsky admires the pointing dog and its bird stance. Indeed, it is an amazing sight! Previously, a nondescript dog suddenly becomes so elegant, well-coordinated and incomparably beautiful, while maintaining excellent working qualities, which is very important for pointing dogs - so valuable on the hunt! The author writes about Bim's first stance as follows: “And Bim, without lowering his right front paw to the ground, froze in place, froze, as if petrified. It was a statue of a dog, as if created by a skilled sculptor! The first awakening of hunting passion ... against the background of the sunset, he is striking in his extraordinary beauty, which is not given to many to understand.
Again and again, throughout the story, Bim himself, the most important and memorable hero, surprises and falls in love with himself. Of course, it is difficult for a person who has never had a dog to understand and imagine the facial expressions and gestures of a dog, the dog's language, the expression of intelligent, almost human eyes, but the author easily and clearly describes the movements and actions of the dog, enlivening Bim to the reader and making him almost real. being.
"White Bim Black Ear" makes you think about many things. For example, about the role of a dog in our life. Why is it given to man? So that a person has a devoted friend, ready to serve faithfully until the end of his days, going through all troubles and misfortunes. Why are people sometimes so cruel to these beautiful animals? Probably, they simply do not understand that a dog is only an animal on the outside, but lives inside it. human soul, and that this creature is very, very necessary for a person, that without it our life will change a lot. We must take care of them, love and not betray, because a dog will never do this - we need to learn something from them.
This story made an indelible impression on me. She once again proved to me that a better friend than a dog to us - people will never find. The author showed us this on the example of Bim, the smartest creature, emphasizing that behind the image of Bim all dogs are hidden, regardless of breed, age and level of upbringing, loving and devoted friends of mankind.
W. Shakespeare play "Romeo and Juliet"
The senseless long-term enmity of the Montecchi and Capulet families prevents the love of Romeo and Juliet. The lovers belong to different clans, they cannot be together. But love is stronger than all obstacles, and only it can put an end to the enmity of two influential families:
The children of the leaders love each other,
But fate sets up intrigues for them,
And their death at the coffin doors
Puts an end to irreconcilable strife.
Because of the endless enmity of these clans, not only lovers suffer, but also other people close to them. So, Tybalt, Juliet's cousin, kills Mercutio in a fight. And then Romeo does not hold back and kills Tybalt, avenging his friend.
Each character in the play is interesting in its own way, but I probably liked Juliet the most. She is only 14 years old, but her feelings for Romeo are not childish at all. For the sake of her lover, she takes decisive steps, contradicts her parents, which at that time was a terrible crime. When a girl realizes that a wedding with Paris is inevitable, she is ready to commit suicide. After all, before that, she had already secretly married Romeo and could not betray her vow of eternal love. Not surprisingly, she is ready to drink the potion and "freeze" for forty-two hours, pretending to be dead.
The thing that struck me the most about the play was the ending. Due to a simple coincidence of events, Romeo did not know that his beloved was alive, and committed suicide from grief at her grave. Juliet, too, could not live without her husband.
I was struck by how fragile human happiness is, how strong the passion of two completely young people can be. An absurd accident ruined the lives of Romeo and Juliet. But their endless love for each other put an end to the long-standing enmity between the Montagues and the Capulets. The heads of these families realized that because of their stupid disagreements, their children died, and it's time to stop.
I believe that love should never be hindered, it is the most big sin. The heroes loved each other too much, but the world around them is not yet ready for love, kindness, harmony. So they leave.
From Romeo and Juliet you can learn kindness, love, dedication, selflessness, purity. This work has left an indelible mark on my soul. I think I will reread Shakespeare's play over and over again.
On the children's grave, two warring clans forget their grievances. The long-awaited peace is coming to Verona, albeit won at such a terrible price. We can say that the love of young heroes brings prosperity to many people, their homeland.
Therefore, it seems to me that Shakespeare's tragedy "Romeo and Juliet" is characterized by vital truthfulness and a high intensity of passions.
The article will present materials for the successful passing of the exam in the Russian language. The theme of the text is "the problem of friendship". Graduates need not just write an essay about it. An important component in the presentation of material are arguments.
USE. friendship problem
In many literary sources, as in Everyday life, there are current topics. Their topicality does not depend on the place, time interval and what is happening. Friendship is one of forever topical issues. What does she represent? What is its need? At the Russian language exam, a graduate, when writing an essay on the topic under consideration, must bring arguments to the problem of friendship. He needs to fully cover the topic, using examples from the works of writers and poets.
The problem of love and friendship. Arguments and information relevant to adolescence
Adolescence is characterized by changes in the development and development of friendship and love feelings. The degree of age differentiation is the subjective experiences associated with these emotions, and how they develop. The discovery and knowledge of one's spiritual world is one of the main achievements early child realizes reality in only one way. They are the outer world around them, into which they can project their own dreams and fantasies. Most often, awareness and acceptance of one's own "I" is accompanied by such phenomena as vague anxiety and a feeling of emptiness inside. It needs to be filled with something.
This is also due to the emergence of new needs for communication and the growth of the intelligibility of a teenager. He feels a strong need for silence, solitude, silence. All this is required in order to isolate oneself from many everyday fuss and hear one's inner voice. In adolescence, a significant place is occupied by the processes of personal and intimate communication, as well as trusting and empathizing. The structure of adolescent relationships is built on the basis of trust and openness. This is also due to the acute need for love and friendship. It is one of the manifestations of growing up.
Features of awakening the senses
Most people want to experience love and live for it. Sometimes some even die. Many, if asked why they get together with someone, can substantiate their answer. Such a phenomenon as love includes elements of friendship. However, it implies a greater degree of intimacy in the relationship. Love is interpreted as a high emotionally positive attitude of a person to an object distinguished from the rest. The latter is at the center of his interests and needs.
Modern realities
The problem of true friendship is now widely discussed. The arguments are mainly about increased social mobility. The rhythm of life has noticeably accelerated, respectively, the circle of acquaintances is significantly expanding. Modern relations of young people are characterized by extensiveness and superficiality. Arguments on the issue of friendship and its modern manifestation can be very different. For example, in a broad sense, it is supplanted by a friendly level of relationships that are based only on a circle of common interests. Nevertheless, friendship has always remained one of the highest psychological aspects of youthful relationships as real elements or ideals are characterized by great stability. They take place in various cultural and social environments.
Characteristic differences
There is never the same friendship between different people. There are always gender, age and typological differences. Interpersonal relationships and age attachment in particular are characterized by intimacy and stability, as well as a level of selectivity. Arguments in the problem of friendship have psychological roots. This is due to the increased need for intimate communication. The transition from childhood to adolescence and then to adolescence is accompanied by an increase in the depth of all these phenomena. Close attention is paid to typical and individual characteristics, and the problem of true friendship is also studied. The arguments presented are weak. This is due to the depth and exclusivity of friendly feelings. One of the most important factors are temperament and character traits. It is much easier to open up to the rest of the impulsive personalities. This makes it easier to form friendships, since such behavior is much more likely to cause a positive emotional response.
Exceptional Attachment Features
A person cannot exist alone and be isolated from everyone. These phenomena are simply unnatural. In order not to feel lonely and lead a full life, any individual needs to feel the love of other people, their respect. He wants to be needed by someone. No less important is the knowledge that in a difficult situation, the help and support of comrades will not be long in coming.
There are various arguments to the problem of friendship, honest and sincere. To acquire it, you should choose people who are close in terms of intelligence, spirit and other personal qualities. However, above all, this person must be sincere in communication.
Vision of the classics
The problem of friendship is very clearly revealed in the works of great writers and poets. Arguments from the literature can be found very different. Thus, relationships with peers in the lyceum had a huge impact on the life and work of the great Russian poet - Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin. For example, I. Pushchin and V. Kuchelbecker were such friends for him. A. S. Pushkin wrote a whole series of masterpieces, which was dedicated to his dear comrades. In his famous novel "Eugene Onegin" the poet reflects on the essence of friendship. It is revealed in the relationship between Lensky and the protagonist of the work. Their example serves as a warning against committing frivolous and selfish actions that can not only break friendship, but also take someone's life.
Contemporary works
In many sources, the problem of friendship is widely and in detail covered. Arguments from literature can be made based not only on classical works. This theme is revealed in the works of contemporary writers and poets. So, in the story "My first friend, my priceless friend" tells about his childhood friend. He had a strong influence on the author. In his work, the writer presented interesting reflections on imaginary and real friendship. The author seeks to convey to the reader the idea that it is not a formal manifestation of mutual sympathy. This feeling is much deeper than vows and joint walks arm in arm. Friendship is the closeness of the soul and common interests. She is something more valuable and expensive.
Nathan Eidelman, "Beautiful is our union" (ch. XII)
This episode can also be used as arguments on the problem of friendship. In moments of sadness and sadness, the hero writes a letter to his relative Grigory Glinka, a teacher and scientist, who is the husband of his older sister. The message says that Wilhelm was tired of studying, lyceum and the lack of classes that would be to his liking. In a response letter, the relative sympathized with him, recommended that he devote more time to the sciences and at the same time instructed him. Grigory Glinka believed that it was too early to start looking for friends, while he himself was not yet ripe for this feeling. In youth, it is extremely important to pay a lot of attention exclusively to study, since there will be no other time for this, except for the "golden time". The main thing is not to go astray and not to miss the future place in society.
You don't have to be constantly depressed. Youthful time is in no way combined with sad facial expressions and a bad mood. If you constantly look at the world around you from a pessimistic side, you can remain unhappy for the rest of your life for no apparent reason. As a result, only the person himself can determine the boundaries of his own happiness, or vice versa. In general, Küchelbecker agreed with the reasoning of his relative. Wilhelm believed that in a difficult moment, friends would definitely come to his aid, and he would be grateful to them for this.
Reflections of I. A. Ilyin
In the work of the famous Russian writer, philosopher and publicist I. A. Ilyin, entitled "The Singing Heart", one can also find the necessary arguments. The problem of true friendship is revealed in sufficient detail. It was and remains relevant regardless of time. As long as humanity exists, it will wonder what this feeling really is.
I. A. Ilyin distinguishes several types of friendship. For example, those of its types that are associated with patronage, flattery or drinking companionship. In the chapter "On Friendship" the problem of true friendship is fully disclosed. Arguments can be found in the position of the author himself. Ilyin believes that sincerity is one of the highest human qualities. He is even of the opinion that the current younger generation is simply not capable of manifesting it. Many people think that they are with someone, but in fact they are mistaken. Sincerely, only small children can do this. At the same time, there is practically no adult friendship. In this chapter, the author gives a detailed explanation of just such a point of view on this issue.
Some of the most revealing classics
In such texts, it is easier to select good arguments. The problem of friendship is familiar to many. A striking example is the novel "Fathers and Sons". It represents the friendship of people with completely different characters. Also, a well of reflections on this topic is the work of Ivan Aleksandrovich Goncharov, which will be discussed in detail later.
Roman "Oblomov"
This book contains valid arguments. The problem of friendship is consecrated here on the example of the behavior of the main characters. Can such relationships exist between completely different people? How long will they last? Goncharov reflects on these questions and tries to answer them. This topic is revealed by the author through the relationship between Ilya Ilyich Oblomov and Andrei Ivanovich Stolz. Some critics define them as completely opposite characters. Nevertheless, there is an opinion that these two heroes complement each other. Oblomov acts as an open and naive nature. At the same time, the essence of Stolz is in purposefulness and determination. However, he does not manage to lure a lazy friend with his lively interests. If not for him, then Oblomov would hardly have gone anywhere at all. In addition, it was Andrei Ivanovich who instructed Olga to look after Ilya Ilyich. The combination of all these actions is a manifestation of true friendship.
The story of A. Laptev "It happened on May 28 ..."
In the story of this author, you can also draw various arguments. The problem of friendship between boys, who in childhood became practically brothers for each other, is revealed on the example of a real life case. For each of them, the degree of significance of these feelings was different. One thought it was just child's play. At the same time, the other perceived it as true male friendship. With a heavy heart, the author tells about the treacherous act of one of the heroes. A friend abandoned a comrade at a difficult moment for him. The writer is of the opinion that true friendship is not characteristic of all people.
A. Laptev believes that some individuals will be faithful to their comrades to the very end, while others easily betray and instantly forget about the promises made.
The story "Grey", Y. Korotkov
In this work, you can also find relevant arguments. The problem of friendship and mutual assistance of strangers to each other is very brightly consecrated by the text. Two guys were serving in the army. They didn't really get along with each other. However, in extreme conditions, Alexander saved Oleg at the cost of his own life. The young man survived. But all the remaining time he was accompanied by the obligation to continue to live for two.
N. Tatarintsev's story about 11th grade students
It tells about the sincere friendship of two boys. The whole class decided to run away from the lesson. One of them was forced to stay because his mother had just recovered from a serious illness, and he did not want to disturb her again. His close friend immediately understands the reasons for such an act and decides to stay with him. This is a manifestation of true friendship of people who are faithful
