Kunstkamera – museum, collection of rarities, outlandish items.( This is the first museum in Russia, founded by Peter the Great, where rare items were collected.)Eiderdown – eider fluff. - What lesson should we learn from this fairy tale? - While it is difficult to answer this question, we have not figured it out yet, we will move in order. - What kind of princess appeared before us? Read the passage describing it. (... The princess was standing outside the gate. But, God, what a form she looked like! Streams of rainwater flowed down her hair and dress onto the toes of her shoes and flowed out from under her heels.) - The author gives us only a few suggestions.

Probably, in the world there is no fairy tale with a more concise content. The Princess and the Pea, whose story is not inferior to the detectives of Agatha Christie, was written back in 1835 by the Danish writer Hans Christian Andersen, but was never accepted by critics, and in fact it contained a deep philosophical meaning about the subtlety of the soul and imaginary values.
Story line
Summary of "The Princess and the Pea": a wealthy prince was looking for a wife, and the main condition was that the future wife should be a hereditary princess without a spot on the pedigree, with a royal appearance and ideal character. Naturally, the search was in vain, because, as you know, there are no ideal people in nature. The prince in sadness sat down in the family castle, driving himself into depression.
And one evening, in a severe thunderstorm, a girl of model appearance asked for a lodging for the night, posing as a princess, although she looked primitive and miserable due to low-quality clothes and the consequences of the elements. The queen mother immediately realized that the girl was a hunter for a rich groom, but she didn’t show it, but quietly put a “pig” in the form of a pea to the princess, which she hid under 20 mattresses.
But the girl, too, was not born with a bast. Although who knows, maybe she really is so thin in soul? She followed the old queen. As a result, in the morning, in the process of questioning her well-being, the queen recognized the aristocratic origin of the girl, the prince immediately married, and the ill-fated pea was placed in the Kunstkamera.
Characteristics of the heroes of a fairy tale
The Princess and the Pea is the main character of the story. But who was the girl in reality: a capricious princess, a sissy and dowry hunter, dissatisfied with the hospitality and honors rendered (why else was there to complain about insufficiently soft feather beds and a hard bed), or a ruined blue-blooded orphan who accidentally fell into a thunderstorm and ended up at door of the rich prince?
From the summary of The Princess and the Pea, it becomes clear that the old king opens the door to the princess. How so? There was still a rich kingdom if the prince could afford to search for a wife all over the world, but the father plays the role of a butler. From boredom or hopelessness (to work off bread, for example)? After all, it is clear that the queen mother ran everything in the palace. If not, then why did she have to get into the relationship of the young with checks?
What did Andersen want to convey?
It happens that being carried away by the plot or the main characters, the audience (or readers) forget about the details that play the most important role in the story. Pea: what did Hans Christian mean when he said that the princess felt the pressure of a pea through twenty (!) featherbeds?
You don't have to be to realize that it wasn't a plant from the legume family. No, even the most tender and hereditary princess with an ideal pedigree, simply physically could not feel a pea seed through the bed. So the pea is a metaphor? What did the great storyteller want to convey with her?
No wonder the "Princess and the Pea" has a summary - the author did not consider it necessary to talk about the details of the story, but highlighted the essence: you can't hide the character anywhere!

2002), I suddenly - and there is nothing surprising in this for a long time - began to think. This happens when you watch as a child, and even thoughts do not arise about the subtext and sanity of the plot. And then you see, I thought, what is the meaning of such a strange story about a princess who felt a dry pea under her feather beds? As it turns out, I'm not the only one asking this question. Below are (from lengthy to short) opinions from the comments, not all - but these are enough.
(1)
Not all that glitters is gold.
Meet by clothes, see off by mind.
Never trust first impressions, they are always deceptive.
Only a little more knowing about a person, you can draw any conclusions.
So in this fairy tale: just a dressed girl could not immediately be called a princess, but life habits in any situation will tell everything about a person, because what a person is used to, how he was mentally formed, is difficult to hide.
(2) The meaning of the fairy tale is that people, it turns out, are not all the same, but differ from each other in their level of intelligence, development of morality, natural wisdom. In just one page, Andersen defined the entire philosophy of the new age. The princess came in rags, barefoot and cold. Behind it lies a trail of extraordinary history that we do not know. But she is a princess, and that is her essence. And just one pea is enough to understand this.
(3) The way to authenticate the princess is just an image. The princess charm happens even before the pea check. If the royal family did not like her, the queen would not have taken such a risk - to hand over the fate of her son and her will to chance. That is, the opinion about the stranger at first is as follows: the girl is good, but were we not deceived? To make sure that the chosen one is really worthy, it would take years of living with her in life. In a fairy tale, everything can be checked with a pea. The fabulous property of a pea is to give confirmation - yes, this is exactly that. And if confirmation is received, here is the proof that even in tatters there can be a golden, noble, pure soul.
(4) The princess did not marry, she simply asked for a place to sleep, hungry and cold, and the treacherous queen slipped her a pea in the form of a test. In the morning, the princess was reeling from bruises left by hailstones (the day before she ran, got wet, got agitated + hard precipitation beat), and the potential mother-in-law decided that she had got a blue-blooded daughter-in-law. A story about mindfulness.
(5) The ability to feel a pea gives the right to assume in a person the ability to feel the state of a nearby person, his pain, joy, doubts. And there is sympathy and complicity nearby. And also the fact that the princess said that she did not sleep well - this is openness!
(6) The main meaning of the fairy tale is that if a person wants to know something, he will definitely figure out how to do it. The fairy tale teaches to be quick-witted and resourceful, to come up with original solutions to achieve the goal.
(7) The point is that people of high society are accustomed to the very best. This is the life style of a princess, they don't sleep on mattresses, they're not maids. Therefore, the catch is felt immediately. Without such princesses, there would be no luxury in real life.
(8) The fairy tale teaches us not to divide people into poor and rich, that is, it teaches that all people are equal. And always meeting people only by their clothes is wrong, you need to learn to trust people. After all, the essence of man is in his inner world.
(9) This tale is a mockery of royal blood. The author makes fun of the nobility, laughs at the prince's parents and their criteria for finding a wife for their son.
(10) The point is that now there are no real princesses left. We sleep on our hard beds with an orthopedic mattress and not a single bruise in the morning.
(11
) The pea symbolizes an unclean conscience.
No matter how you cover her, a real princess will not be able to sleep peacefully.
(12 ) Of course, everything can be, but for me the moral of the fairy tale is this: if you feel like a princess, even tattered rags will not be a hindrance to you.
(13 ) It seems to me ... they just needed a "thoroughbred" wife, and not some thread of a village impostor from the street, that's the point, I guess.
(14 ) The moral is to be at the right time in the right place, to eavesdrop and peep how you will be tested. PS: Added I do not know why ... what if?
(15 ) The fairy tale has no moral. Morality is in Fable! This is what this genre was created for. A fairy tale is a reflection of reality, created by creativity. And Andersen does not moralize, he shows the world in all its diversity.
Such cases, some opinions are somewhat similar, many are pure conjectures - the imagination draws the details. What do you think is the closest number to the truth? Perhaps someone turned on SPGS. As for me, I'm leaning towards option 15 and 9.
