The writing


Mayakovsky is a poet of great public, social temperament. Now sing about the new - sing - the Demon... V. Mayakovsky The first acquaintance with the work of Vladimir Mayakovsky is always stormy, with the emergence of many questions, even with some indignation. Why? It is difficult to find an answer to this question. Suffering and lonely, Vladimir Mayakovsky came to Russian poetry. The active position of the fighter, taken by the poet, comes into irreconcilable contradiction with the alienation of the human personality in society. A free, uninhibited person appears in Mayakovsky's poetry as the highest measure of beauty on earth. The poem "A cloud in pants" is a vivid example of the expression of the kinship of a lyrical hero with the masses: Veins and muscles - the motive is more true. Should we beg for favors of time! We - each - keep drive belts in our five worlds! A poet of great public, social temperament, Mayakovsky had an extremely developed sense of personal responsibility for everything that happens in the "storm-world". Here lay the inner nerve of his work, from here originate these unusual scales, proportions ("Me and Napoleon", "Mayakovsky for centuries"), constant anxiety for the fate of people, readiness to be their herald. In the poem "Spring Question" Mayakovsky admitted: For example, I am considered a good poet. Well, let's say, I can prove: "moonshine is a great evil." What about it? What about this? Well, there are absolutely no words. Reading the first pages of "About this", one cannot but feel the author's special passion. Mayakovsky is clearly arguing - about what and with whom? The content of the poem leaves no doubt that the fight against "curly-haired lyricists" was still relevant. Mayakovsky cannot be imagined without a commitment to the “topics of the day”. He possessed, as it were, double vision and, constantly soaring upwards, talking about the fate of all mankind, freely talking "through the ridges of centuries" with distant descendants, did not lose sight of current everyday life from his field of observation. In the poem "A Cloud in Pants" Mayakovsky successfully realized the idea formulated in one of his articles: you can not write about the war, but you must write about the war. His strength as a poet lies in the fact that he managed to single out in life the sprouts of the new and affirmative, looked at the present day from the "third reality". With the advent of Mayakovsky in poetry, indeed, "something huge happened." Not just another gifted poet came - an artist of a great historical mission, of a special "turning point" significance, appeared. Everything in it was striking: the "language of the street", the rapid flow of metaphors, the daring breadth of ideas, the unusually active role of the personal principle. What determines the depth and integrity of Mayakovsky's poetry, what gives it durability? I think that she owes this primarily to the height and significance of those ideals that the poet defended throughout his life. Love and hate, lyrics and satire in his work are generated by the same feeling - the belief that the future of mankind is beautiful, and the passionate desire to bring it closer. Mayakovsky never separated himself from the people building a new society. Stepping through the "lyrical volumes", he addressed millions of readers. As alive with the living, he speaks today with "comrade descendants" throughout the world. There is no other poet in the poetry of the 20th century who would have called upon himself such streams of praise and abuse. Swearing accompanied him throughout his almost twenty-year career, but already during his lifetime, the younger generation saw Mayakovsky as their trumpeter and singer. He remained that way for the rest of his life. He enters our lives quickly ignited, unstoppable in passion, delicate, helpful, touching and tender in caring for others. Coming people! Who you are? Here I am, all pain and bruise. I bequeath to you the orchard of my great soul! - young Vladimir Mayakovsky addresses us. To understand the life and personality of the poet, let us listen to his word.

    When would you know from what rubbish
    Poems grow without shame.
    A.Akhmatova

    The theme of creativity is one of the main themes of poetry in general and Russian poetry of the "Silver Age" in particular. Every poet at least once in his life asked himself the question: “What is creativity? Where do poems come from? Someone claimed that he writes only “by inspiration”, someone, like Mayakovsky, for example, “made” poetry, but they all agreed that poetry is an unusual phenomenon, opposed to the ordinary, external world.

    The words of Akhmatova (in the epigraph to the essay) can be understood in different ways. They can also mean that a genius can have great lines from the most fleeting impression, from any life situation, no matter how small and insignificant, and that poetry often grows out of what can be called "spiritual rubbish."

    The poetry of the Silver Age arose against the backdrop of a deep spiritual crisis. Oddly enough, crises are quite often accompanied by a surge of art, and often, the more terrible and “bloody” the time, the brighter and brighter what remains after it.

    The heart cannot live in peace.
    Suddenly the clouds have gathered.
    (A. Blok)

    Poetry grows like a beautiful flower against the backdrop of the rubbish that humanity periodically sweeps out of its hut into the world. The crack, which, as you know, must go through the heart of the poet, when the world is split, turns into an abyss at such times, and poems are melted in the fire of suffering. No wonder Yuri Annenkov called the book of his memoirs about his contemporaries "a cycle of tragedies." Each fate is terrible, everyone has had a lot of torment, but perhaps if it were not for these torments, there would not be those poems that remain modern to this day.

    The roots of poetry always lie in the soul of the author himself, creativity reflects his character, temperament and biography facts. The poet, even simply describing what he sees, inevitably introduces some of his features into the described, shows it to us from a new side that we have not noticed. It would seem that what is said in the lines:

    White birch
    under my window
    covered with snow,
    Exactly silver.
    (S. Yesenin)

    And what an image is being created!
    “The business of the poet is ... to make the authentically spoken word sound like he, perhaps, did not manage to sound in life,” wrote M. Tsvetaeva. The Creator passes through himself the vital material that reality supplies him, and splashes out what he has obtained as a result of spiritual work on this material.

    “The equality of the soul and the verb - this is the poet” (M. Tsvetaeva). Any occasion, any experience can serve as a reason for creating poetry. And in the most difficult days, when from grief a person stands on the verge of insanity, the ability to pour out in creativity can save him. Although it can kill. Not without reason, with the terrible constancy, the fate of Russian (and not only Russian) poets ends tragically. It is enough to recall such names as Yesenin, Mayakovsky, Tsvetaeva. Of course, one cannot blame the poetic gift, but it takes too much strength, and one often has to pay for it with one's life.

    Poems often come regardless of the desire of the author. Voloshin also said that in poetic creativity the main thing is not what he wanted to say, but what had an effect. The processes that take place in the soul of the creator, nourished by external impressions, are sometimes hidden from him.

    When would you know from what rubbish
    Poems grow, not knowing shame,
    Like a yellow dandelion by the fence.
    Like burdock and quinoa.

    And happiness, and suffering, and tears, and laughter, and passion, and calmness - everything serves to satisfy the "deaf thirst for song" that burns the elect.

    Introduction by the teacher.

    A poem is a creation of poetry.

    There is no such craft in the world.

    But what is there? There are mountains in the distance.

    Rain and snow, darkness and light.

    There is peace and movement in the world,

    There is laughter and tears - the memory of distant years.

    There is a dying and a rising

    There is truth and vanity of vanities,

    There is a human life moment

    And a long-lasting trace

    And for whom the whole world, all sensations

    Poetry is that true poet.

    But how are poems written?

    I am looking for an answer to this question myself.

    (R. Gamzatov)

    The poet's work is intellectual, spiritual, poet there is no holiday and weekends: "Do not let your soul be lazy!

    So that the water in the mortar does not crush,
    The soul must work
    And day and night, I am day and night!-
    called the famous poet Nikolai Zabolotsky,

    Only when a poet with spiritual vision penetrates into the essence of the issues of his time, into the complex world of a person - a contemporary, when his soul works "day and night", - then inspiration comes and poems of amazing power of influence on the reader and listener are born, whichset in motion "thousands of years of millions of hearts." Every poet strives to create such poems. Such poems can be called a conversation about the main thing / Y. Smelyakov /. From them we and Let's start talking about modern poetry. What does modern mean? poetry?

    The word "modern" means pertaining to the present, current time" of the present given epoch. Modern poetry is the poetry of our time. It includes the names of the largest poets, creative in the last twenty years, and those who have just begun their journey in literature.

    The true value of a poet and poetry lies in the ability to find pain points life, the most pressing problems of the present.

    The poet is always indebted to the universe, and life is always richer than its reflection. Hence the sense of duty, the sense of civic responsibility of talent to its time, its era.

    What problems are worrying our poets at the present time? Most often it is a problem of war and peace, an ecological problem, a problem of human relations. and nature, rustic theme, poet's themeand poetry, historical memory, moral problem, problem of national relations and others.

    It is natural that all we will not be able to consider the problems today, but some of them will become the subject of our conversation,

    Head of the first problem group

    Introduction to contemporary poetry

    you notice that the theme of war and peace excites almost all poets. Among them there are many who have gone through the fire of war. This is Nikolai Starshinov, Anatoly Zhigulin. Egor Isaev, Nikolay Gribachev. But there are those who were not at war, but their childhood coincided with that harsh time andbecause this topic is in theirpoetry takes the lead. Suffice it to recall the poem by E. Yevtushenko "Mom and the neutron bomb» , poems by Robert Rozhdestvensky

    "Requiem" and "Two hundred and ten steps" Their poetry is courageous and straightforward. Their poems are not florid, but kind and resolute. They work in the most beautiful sense of the word. We can say that they are all active supporters of peace, with their words they make us think about life, about what we can leave behind.

    Poems followed by comments.

    Members of the problem group read and comment.

    N,. Starshinov "The world has come to trouble"

    V. Vysotsky " Mass Graves»

    D . Samoilov "Forties".

    M. Lvov "Height"

    S. Narovchatov, "Soldiers of Freedom"

    You probably noticed that in all the poems that sounded in our lesson, the theme of war naturally and organically develops into the theme of peace, the struggle for peace. Poets warn: "Don't give in to illusions, take care of the world!"

    The word is taken by a group dealing with the ecological problem of modern poetry.

    Problem group leader.

    Along with the problem of war and peace, there is another, at first glance, less dangerous, but therefore more terrible - this is the problem of ecology.

    And in this, and in another area, we decide: to be or not to be?

    Modern civilization can destroy itself both instantly and gradually.

    Hundreds of thousands of factories are poisoning our water, land and air. A person can get used to many things, but not to everything. And now we realize with horror that we are not breathing air? we do not drink water, but live almost in the desert. Poems dedicated to this problem sound like a mournful tocsin.

    Problem group members read and comment on the following poems:

    V. Sorokin "Do not beat the deer."

    I. Bursov "We did not expect favors from nature."

    From Kunyaev "From the Great Hydroelectric Power Station to Ust-Ilim".

    A. Kuzmichevsky "I'm going with a basket to the village"

    E Vakhidov "The Aral Sea dries up".

    I. Bursov "Monologue of a neighbor"

    Dudin "Take care of the earth"

    G. Kolyuzhny "I swear by the dead river"

    Problem group leader.

    No matter how tragic the poems about “our common home” sound, I want to believe in the ability of the people of the earth to ensure its protection, as many poets believe in this.

    A problem group enters the conversation, selecting poems on a moral problem.

    Problem group leader.

    Perhaps, never before in the world has the problem of morality been as acute as it is now.

    Today it is becoming more and more obvious that humanity is threatened not only and not so much by an energy crisis, but by a spiritual and moral crisis. The role of literature, in particular, poetry, is great in the unfolding battle for the hearts, for the souls of people.

    I. Volobueva "Do you know this nameless river"

    V. Karpenko "Hut from the edge."

    In Maksimenko "Children's House"

    E. Yevtushenko "Producers of ugliness"

    V. Kostrov “And there is no such thing! And there is none!”

    R. Rozhdestvensky "The constellations are blinking over your head"

    Problem group leader.

    We end our conversation on a moral topic. We hope that it will not pass unnoticed and will serve as a good lesson for all who educate a person in themselves.

    Problem group leader.

    Compared to the previous themes, the village theme is the youngest. Now the number of abandoned villages is growing. People leave their native lands, their homes and leave for the city, pursuing the goal of "living better." Probably, many people forget their homeland - the place on our earth where they were born. What aching pain is filled with verses dedicated to the village problem!

    Problem group members read and comment on verses on the topic:

    G Zaitsev "Everything is in desolation - a house and a garden."

    G. Kolyuzhny "I swear by the dead river."

    A. Kuzmichevsky "Nomadic village".

    Problem group leader.

    The poems that sounded now are very similar to each other. They are about one thing: about the critical situation of our villages, about the Ivans, who do not remember their relationship.

    Teacher.

    So what do you think is the most important issue?

    Pupil.

    I believe that these topics cannot be considered separately, they are closely intertwined, complementing each other. And all the poets, no matter what they write about, one way or another, each, to the best of his talent and understanding, writes about one thing - about the human soul and its contact with life.

    Final word from the teacher.

    So, today we have tried to consider several problems of our time that concern our poets. Concluding the conversation, I would like to say that the poet is called the rulers of thoughts, but they become the rulers of thoughts when a great and sublime idea rules over their own thoughts. There are no indifferent and unprincipled rulers of thoughts. And our poets carry high the banner of ideology, they believe in the victory of truth and justice on earth and inflame us with this faith. They teach us responsibility to the people and the time in which we live, and assert that each of us is able to influence the course of time and history.

    To the house: Composition "Lessons of poets"

    The lesson was prepared by Savushinskaya E.A. , teacher of secondary school No. 22, Kuban settlement, Gulkevichsky district.

    The theme of the poet and poetry in the work of A.S. Pushkin, M.Yu. Lermontov and N.A. Nekrasov.
    The 19th century brought great poets to Russian literature, such as A.S. Pushkin, M.Yu. Lermontov, N.A. Nekrasov and many others. The poems of these creators bring a ray of light and a lot of joy into a boring, monotonous life, they help to understand the very complex problems of reality.
    In their vast work, these poets touched on many topics, but it is especially necessary to highlight the problem of the poet and poetry. I want to start my essay with the work of A.S. Pushkin, as he, one of the first, was the founder of rich Russian literature.
    Pushkin always thought a lot about the role of the poet in poetry, about the purpose of the word in literature, he devoted many of his lyrical works to this topic. The most striking poem is "The Prophet", where Pushkin proclaims the divine essence of art, the prophetic purpose of the creator. It tells about the transformation of a man and a prophet, it says that the poet is endowed with the power of prophecy and all his actions come from God.
    Another poem that became the poet's testament is "I erected a monument to myself not made by hands ..." In it, the author sums up his work and considers it his merit that in the "cruel age" he glorified freedom, that is, he fought against serfdom and autocracy for liberation of the people. In this poetic masterpiece, Alexander Sergeevich feels superior to others, he undertakes to erect a monument to himself, and he is absolutely right in this, because, rereading his poems, we find ourselves in an amazing fairy tale of words that demonstrate Pushkin's skill, he laid the foundations of Russian literature, defining her genre and ideological originality for many years to come.
    The work of the great poet was continued by M.Yu. Lermontov. In all his poems, one can feel the difficult mutual understanding of society and the creator. Mikhail Yuryevich was very worried about the future of his modernity, which did not want to accept him as he is. Lermontov condemned people and blamed them for the death of A.S. Pushkin. This conflict was very clearly reflected in the poem "The Death of a Poet", written shortly after the death of Alexander Sergeevich.
    He rebelled against the opinions of the world
    Alone, as before... and killed!
    Mikhail Yuryevich says that people did not appreciate their life teacher and did not listen to him at all, but Lermontov believes and knows that there is a "God's judgment" on which they all will have to pay.
    In another poem, called "The Prophet", Lermontov echoes Pushkin, proclaiming the divine power of the poet: "Since the eternal judge gave me the all-seeing prophet ..." M.Yu. Lermontov says that the creator is an angel sent to us from God to do good and guide humanity on the true path, but the author also emphasizes that people absolutely do not want to listen to his voice.
    Fool, wanted to assure us
    That God speaks through his mouth! ..
    And only nature understands the poet:
    ... And the stars listen to me,
    Playing joyfully with rays.
    Lermontov's hero is completely disappointed in his existence and alone in the human environment. The tragedy of the creator lies in the fact that his dreams and desires do not correspond to reality. No less significant poet of the 19th century N.A. Nekrasov also touched upon the theme of the poet and poetry in his work. Nikolai Alekseevich interprets this problem in his own way, as is typical for his time.
    During the years of Nekrasov's life, two literary trends collided: "pure art" and civil poetry. Supporters of "pure art" believed that poetry should describe nature, wonderful tender feelings, and Nikolai Alekseevich believed that poems could be devoted to describing cruel reality. And in his work, showing the suffering of the Russian peasant from cold and hunger. All Nekrasov's poems were written in simple language, understandable to the people, and not in grandiloquent phrases.
    It was all these feelings about the relationship between "pure art" and civil poetry that were reflected in a collection of poems called "The Poet and the Citizen", which brought Nikolai Alekseevich an unprecedented literary success.
    The poet-citizen Nekrasova is deeply worried about the silence and long-suffering of Russia, he fights for justice, trying in his poems to show the people his fate.
    All these great poets - A.S. Pushkin, M.Yu. Lermontov and N.A. Nekrasov - served the people, tried to convince him that he should fight for his happiness, and the true mouthpiece of the struggle is the poet and his poetry.
