Literature lesson

In literature lessons

we studied Aesop's fables,

Jean de La Fontaine, I. Krylov

Ancient Greece

Ancestor

fable genre is considered to be the ancient Greek sage Aesop ,

who lived in the VI century BC.

Aesop's fable "The Fox and the Grapes" translated by Smirnov D.N.

The hungry Fox made her way into the garden and saw a juicy bunch of grapes on a high branch. "That's what I need!" - she exclaimed, ran up and jumped once, twice, a third ... but it's all useless - there's no way to get to the grapes. “Ah, so I knew it was still green!” - Fox snorted in self-justification and hurried away.

In the 17th century, the ancient genre was exalted by the French writer

Jean

de La Fontaine

Fable by Jean de La Fontaine

"Fox and Grapes"

A Gascon fox, or perhaps a Norman fox (They say different things), Dying of hunger, suddenly saw Grapes above the arbor, so visibly ripe, In ruddy skin! Our friend would be glad to eat them, Yes, he could not reach him And said: "He is green - Let every rabble feed on him!" Well, isn't that better than idly complaining?

The most widely known are the fables created by

I.A. Krylov

"You found yourself said I.I. Dmitriev I.A. Krylov. This is your true family. Go on. Stop at this literary genre ... "

Krylov's fable "The Fox and the Grapes"

Hungry godmother Fox climbed into the garden; In it, the grapes were reddened. The gossip's eyes and teeth flared up; And brushes juicy, like yachts, burn; Only trouble is, they hang high: Whence and how she comes to them, Though the eye sees Yes, the tooth is numb. Breaking through the whole hour in vain, She went and said with annoyance: “Well! Looks like he's good Yes, green - no ripe berries: You'll get the hang of it right away."

Sometimes a person comes up with various thoughts and strange questions, for example, about how to compose a fable. For all lovers of strange questions, we will try to give a certain direction in solving this problem. Naturally, most likely, a person who asked such a question is unlikely to claim the laurels of La Fontaine and Krylov, and nevertheless, sometimes a person wants exotic things, or he has schoolchildren. And at school, as you know, there are all sorts of tasks.

Moral of the fable

Before you think specifically about how to compose a fable, you need to understand what kind of morality you want to “mount” in it. Simply put, what should this creation teach.

If we read interviews of different writers, they almost unanimously say: "The idea is the head of everything." In this case, the volume of the work of art is absolutely not important, the main thing is that it should not be empty.

Usually, if a person asks himself how to compose a moral fable, then he has a clear goal, why he needs it. For example, a parent wants to compose something to show a child how to keep his room clean. The plot is built according to the author's intention.

Since our task is to show a specific example of composing a fable, we will use the moral of the fable “The Fox and the Grapes” and come up with new characters, or rather, even a face.

Characters

The next step in solving the “how to compose a fable” problem is choosing a character. Usually these are animals that are very similar to people. But here it is important to observe some realism. Animals should really be like people in their habits or in those ideas that are traditionally accepted in society. For example, the ant in the fable cannot be lazy, and the dragonfly cannot be a workaholic. For this is contrary not only to certain images of animals, but also to cultural tradition. And yes, this is especially important when it comes to how to compose a fable with a moral.

In other words, maybe a fable is, of course, a fiction, but everything in it must be realistic and built on the basis of at least worldly common sense.

The Dog and the Showcase, or the Fox and the Grapes in a New Way

Imagine a wet, hungry stray dog ​​walking the streets, he is malnourished and underdrinking. And then a butcher shop window appears in front of him, there are hams, chicken, meat for every taste and wealth. But here's the problem: dogs are not allowed in the store. Our dog walks around the window this way and that, but no. Glass does not allow him to break through to the desired object. And then he says to himself: “Probably they sell rotten stuff,” and goes away to dig in a nearby trash can.

This is how the essay turned out, we wrote it as an answer to the question of how to compose a fable. It cannot be said that we succeeded, like the classics, but it also seems to be quite tolerable.

Now let's talk about what to do if the fountain of fantasy has dried up.

How to find a plot and moral for a new fable?

By the way, this is why the main characters in fables are usually animals. They are some collective images of all people, and if all, then no one in particular. They are laughed at because no one thinks of himself and everyone looks at his neighbor. They cackle at our smaller brothers. And all because the fabulists, thinking about the plot of the next fable, are wondering what kind of fable to compose about animals? But if animals composed, then we, people, would not think enough.

If nothing comes to mind, and you are creatively fruitless, then try to imagine those around you in the guise of animals. Your wife, boss, colleagues, friends. In this case, life itself will helpfully suggest a plot.

Child and fable

True, if a child decides to engage in creativity, then everything is much simpler for him. Children think very figuratively, probably up to 15 years, then, when the turbulent time of puberty begins, a person loses the connecting thread with childhood, and thinking becomes “adult”.

After all, it was not for nothing that Christ bequeathed: "Be like children." And the point here is not only that the newcomers to the world are sinless and very close to God, but that children's thinking is not yet blinkered, they are very close to life, to its primary source, so writing is very easy for them. For them, writing is like breathing. It is also indicative that for a child the fantasy world is closer than the real world. Children could subscribe to the words of G. Hesse: “Reality is rubbish”, but when people grow up, they take this rubbish seriously and forget about the important.

Thus, if you offer a student, for example, a 5th grader, to create a fable, he will easily do it. True, only if the parents control the process. They should ask themselves the question of how to compose a fable. 5th grade, for example, can be chosen as a target, so he should take it favorably. If you are lucky and you have a quick-witted fifth grader at home, then give the composition of the fable to him at his mercy, just direct your child’s violent fantasy into the mainstream of cultural norms and common sense.

We hope that the article will help to write at least one decent fable.

We are accustomed to studying fables using the works of Ivan Andreevich Krylov as an example, since he was a world-famous creator of rhyming stories. Many novice poets think that it is not difficult to write an interesting poem with a moral, but after starting this action, they realize that this requires certain skills. In this story, we will try to answer the question of those who are forced to turn to friends with a request: "Help me write a fable." Don't know where to start? Then read our guide.

How to write a fable yourself? Basic rules for creating rhyming stories

The works of Ivan Krylov delight us with the fact that they are not only instructive, but also very funny. So we slowly got to the first rule of writing a fable: it should be satirically colored - this way the meaning indicated in it will be better absorbed.

Before that, re-read the rhyming stories of other authors, and you will notice there the second rule for creating such a work: a well-played plot. This means that one or more characters can be involved in the poem, who must act out a certain situation. This situation must necessarily have an emotional coloring, either satirical or dramatic, but in no case should it be faceless or superficial.

For everyone who has long been in search of an answer to the question of how to write a fable yourself, there is another good rule: you need to identify for yourself the indispensable goal of creating this type of work. This is done in order to correctly prioritize and formulate the main meaning of the poem.

How to write a fable with a moral?

All are very different from each other both in style and in the method of creation. Before you write a fable yourself, determine its basic morality, because it is precisely this that is the hallmark of works of this type. When the main meaning of the poem is formulated, you can proceed to writing a fable according to the principle of playing around with this meaning. This is not so difficult to do: Krylov wrote his works about animals, and you can write about people or even about some object in the form of a children's fairy tale. But the main thing is that in every action of the hero there is a connection with the morality you have designated, and this is actually not so difficult to do.

Writing a fable on the example of famous works

For anyone who loves literature, there is a great way to write a good work from the genre that we are covering in this article. The point is to read several fables of famous authors (Krylov, Tolstoy, Mikhalkov), analyze them and identify the strengths of each work. This is done in order to try to repeat the experience of the powerful of this world, only to do it with a completely different plot.

As for morality, one can take some well-known proverb or saying as its basis, since each of them reveals a certain meaning. If interpreted correctly, it will be an excellent platform for writing an interesting fable.

Many literature teachers give tasks to their students related to writing a fable. Most often, if the student listened carefully to how this is done in the lesson, then he will not have any problems with this task. And if the student was absent or missed everything, then he will have to be guided by the following tips.

Rules for writing a fable

First you need to find in the explanatory dictionary what the word fable itself means. The fable is usually written in the form of regular verse or prose. It differs in many ways from other similar genres in that it has a moralizing, as well as a satirical bias. More often than not, the fable ends with a moral. The main idea of ​​the author should be expressed in a short and clear form.

It is recommended that the author write his work from the very end, that is, directly from morality. Since usually the fable ends with some famous saying or proverb. As an example, you can see the statements of the famous fabulists S. Mikhalkov or I. Krylov. After that, you need to think a little about how you can correctly rhyme your favorite thought.

What will be the illustration of the fable?

Various animals;

Insects;

Or inanimate objects.

For example, in Krylov's fables, you can see a picture of a crow talking to a bird or a dragonfly listening to moralizing from an ant. It is worth thinking carefully about which hero is suitable for your morality. It will be good if the reader of the fable has an image of the hero of this morality in advance, let it be a smart crow, a cowardly hare or a cunning fox.

The invented story must be written down in the form of prose. All sentences in the fable should be very short and understandable to the reader. Like all other works, the fable consists of a plot, then the development of events follows, the climax and the denouement itself, which precedes the morality itself. It's just that here each of the listed parts has a small set of words. A fable may well be written without rhyme, but most often the poetic form is better perceived by the listener than ordinary prose. Therefore, it is worth trying to read a prosaic passage in poetic form. Which size to choose does not really matter, everything will depend on personal desire. An energetic trochee or a classic iambic, or something else, is quite suitable for this.

Wolf and Hare

On a sunny day, the Hare walked through the forest. Suddenly a wolf came out from behind the bushes. The hare wanted to run, but the Wolf stopped him and said:
- Enough, Hare, run away from me, let's be friends. Come to visit me, I'll treat you to sweet carrots and cabbage.
Hare agreed. He came to the wolf. The table is set, a lot of goodies, but no carrots and cabbage.

- Where's the carrot and cabbage?

Buchkin Dmitry

Greedy Hare

One Hare came to visit his friends for his birthday. There, in the garden, he saw a whole bed of juicy cabbage. The hosts offered him a little treat. The hare happily agreed and went to the garden. The cabbage turned out to be so tasty that the Hare closed his eyes in pleasure and did not notice that the garden bed was empty.
But the worst happened later. At first he turned all red, then turned blue, then turned green, and finally covered with large red blisters that itched and itched terribly.
He was taken to the forest hospital. Later, the doctor told Hare that due to overeating, he became allergic to cabbage, and he would no longer eat it. That's what sometimes greed leads to!
