Tolstoy "War and Peace". Mini-essay on the topic “The image of Andrei Bolkonsky in L.N. Tolstoy’s novel “War and Peace” The spiritual quest of Prince Bolkonsky |
Article menu: Any reader who thoughtfully delves into Leo Nikolayevich Tolstoy’s legendary epic novel “War and Peace” encounters images of amazing heroes. One of these is Andrei Bolkonsky, an extraordinary man with a multifaceted character. Description of Andrei Bolkonsky“...Short stature, a very handsome young man with certain dry features,” is how Lev Nikolaevich Tolstoy describes his hero when the reader first meets him at Anna Pavlovna Sherer’s evening. “Everything in his figure, from his tired, bored look to his quiet, measured step, represented the sharpest contrast with his little, lively wife. Apparently, everyone in the living room was not only familiar to him, but he was so tired of it that looking at them and listening to them was very boring for him...” Most of all, the young man was bored when he saw his wife’s face. It would seem that nothing this evening could raise young man mood, and he perked up only when he saw his friend Pierre Bezukhov. From this we can conclude that Andrey values friendship. The young Prince Bolkonsky is characterized by such qualities as nobility, respect for elders (it is enough to see how he loved his father, calling him “You, father ...”), as well as education and patriotism.
Thirst for fame and subsequent disappointmentAndrei Bolkonsky's values gradually change throughout the novel War and Peace. At the beginning of the work, an ambitious young man strives at all costs to gain human recognition and glory as a brave warrior. “I love nothing but fame, human love. Death, wounds, loss of family, nothing scares me,” he exclaims, wanting to go to war with Napoleon.
Social life seems empty to him, but the young man wants to be useful to society. At first he serves as Kutuzov’s adjutant, but in the Battle of Austerlitz he is wounded and ends up in the hospital. The family considers Andrei missing, but for Bolkonsky himself this time has become very important for reassessment of values. The young man is disappointed in his former idol Napoleon, seeing him as a worthless man rejoicing in the death of people. “At that moment Napoleon seemed to him such a small, insignificant person in comparison with what was now happening between his soul and this high, endless sky with clouds running across it.” Now that Bolkonsky’s goal in life - to achieve fame and recognition - has collapsed, the hero is overcome by strong emotional experiences. Having recovered, he decides not to fight anymore, but to devote himself to his family. Unfortunately, this did not happen. Another shockThe next blow for Andrei Bolkonsky was the death during childbirth of his wife Elizabeth. If it were not for the meeting with his friend Pierre Bezukhov, who tried to convince him that life is not over, and he needs to fight, despite the trials, it would have been much more difficult for the hero to survive such grief. “I live and this is not my fault, therefore, I need to live until death somehow better, without interfering with anyone,” he lamented, sharing his experiences with Pierre. But, thanks to the sincere support of a comrade, who convinced his friend that “you have to live, you have to love, you have to believe,” the hero of the novel survived. During this difficult period, Andrei not only gained courage in his soul, but also met his long-awaited love. For the first time, Natasha and Andrei meet at the Rostov estate, where the prince comes to spend the night. Disappointed in life, Bolkonsky understands that finally the happiness of true and bright love has smiled on him. A pure and purposeful girl opened his eyes to the fact that he needed to live for the people, do good for those around him. A new, hitherto unknown to him, feeling of love flared up in Andrei’s heart, which Natasha shared. They got engaged, and maybe would have become a wonderful couple. But circumstances intervened again. A fleeting hobby appeared in the life of Andrei’s beloved, which led to disastrous consequences. It seemed to her that she had fallen in love with Anatoly Kuragin, and although the girl later repented of her betrayal, Andrei could no longer forgive her and treat her the same way. “Of all the people, I have never loved or hated anyone more than her,” he admitted to his friend Pierre. The engagement was called off. Death of Andrei in the War of 1812Going to the next war, Prince Bolknonsky no longer pursues ambitious plans. His main goal is to protect his homeland and his people from the attacking enemy. Now Andrei is fighting alongside ordinary people, soldiers and officers, and does not consider this shameful. “...He was entirely devoted to the affairs of his regiment, he was caring for his people and officers and affectionate with them. In the regiment they called him our prince, they were proud of him and loved him...” writes Leo Tolstoy, characterizing his favorite hero. The wound in the Battle of Borodino was fatal for Prince Andrei.
However, this revived love does not stand a chance, because Bolkonsky is dying. The devoted girl spends the last days of Andrei’s life next to him.
It ended so sadly earthly life Andrey Bolkonsky. He experienced many sorrows and troubles, but the path to eternity opened ahead. If it weren't for the war...Every thoughtful reader can conclude: how much grief and misfortune the war brought to humanity. After all, if not for the mortal wound that Andrei received on the battlefield, perhaps their love with Natasha Rostova would have had a happy continuation. After all, they loved each other so much and could symbolize the ideal family relations. But, alas, man does not spare his own kind and absurd confrontations claim many lives of people who, if they remained alive, could bring considerable benefit to the Fatherland. It is this idea that runs through the entire work of Lev Nikolaevich Tolstoy. After reading L.N. Tolstoy’s novel “War and Peace,” readers encounter some images of heroes who are morally strong and give us life example. We see heroes who pass hard way to find your truth in life. This is how the image of Andrei Bolkonsky is presented in the novel “War and Peace”. The image is multifaceted, ambiguous, complex, but understandable to the reader. Portrait of Andrei BolkonskyWe meet Bolkonsky at the evening of Anna Pavlovna Scherer. L.N. Tolstoy gives him the following description: “...short stature, a very handsome young man with certain dry features.” We see that the prince’s presence at the evening is very passive. He came there because it was supposed to: his wife Lisa was at the evening, and he had to be next to her. But Bolkonsky is clearly bored, the author shows this in everything “... from a tired, bored look to a quiet, measured step.” In the image of Bolkonsky in the novel “War and Peace,” Tolstoy shows an educated, intelligent, noble secular man who knows how to think rationally and be worthy of his title. Andrei loved his family very much, respected his father, the old Prince Bolkonsky, called him “You, father...” As Tolstoy writes, “... cheerfully endured his father’s ridicule of new people and with visible joy called his father to a conversation and listened to him.” He was kind and caring, although he may not seem like that to us. Heroes of the novel about Andrei BolkonskyLisa, the wife of Prince Andrei, was somewhat afraid of her strict husband. Before leaving for the war, she told him: “...Andrey, you have changed so much, you have changed so much...” Pierre Bezukhov “...considered Prince Andrei an example of all perfections...” His attitude towards Bolkonsky was sincerely kind and gentle. Their friendship remained faithful to the end. Marya Bolkonskaya, Andrei’s sister, said: “You are good to everyone, Andre, but you have some kind of pride in thought.” By this she emphasized her brother’s special dignity, his nobility, intelligence, and high ideals. Old Prince Bolkonsky placed the responsibility on his son big hopes, but loved him like a father. “Remember one thing, if they kill you, it will hurt me, an old man... And if I find out that you did not behave like the son of Nikolai Bolkonsky, I will be... ashamed!” - the father said goodbye. Kutuzov, the commander-in-chief of the Russian army, treated Bolkonsky in a fatherly manner. He received him cordially and made him his adjutant. “I need good officers myself...” said Kutuzov when Andrei asked to be released into Bagration’s detachment. Prince Bolkonsky and the warIn a conversation with Pierre Bezukhov, Bolkonsky expressed the thought: “Drawing rooms, gossip, balls, vanity, insignificance - this is a vicious circle from which I cannot get out. I'm going to war now, greatest war, which has only happened, but I don’t know anything and I’m no good.” But Andrei’s craving for fame, for his greatest destiny was strong, he was heading towards “his Toulon” - here he is, the hero of Tolstoy’s novel. “...we are officers who serve our Tsar and Fatherland...” Bolkonsky said with true patriotism. At the request of his father, Andrei ended up at Kutuzov’s headquarters. In the army, Andrei had two reputations, very different from each other. Some “listened to him, admired him and imitated him,” others “considered him a pompous, cold and unpleasant person.” But he made them love and respect him, some were even afraid of him. Bolkonsky considered Napoleon Bonaparte a “great commander.” He recognized his genius and admired his talent for warfare. When Bolkonsky was assigned the mission to report to the Austrian Emperor Franz about the successful battle of Krems, Bolkonsky was proud and glad that he was the one going. He felt like a hero. But having arrived in Brunne, he learned that Vienna was occupied by the French, that there was “the Prussian Union, betrayal of Austria, a new triumph of Bonaparte...” and no longer thought about his glory. He thought about how to save the Russian army. IN Battle of Austerlitz Prince Andrei Bolkonsky in the novel “War and Peace” is at the peak of his fame. Without expecting it, he grabbed the thrown banner and shouted “Guys, go ahead!” ran towards the enemy, and the whole battalion ran after him. Andrei was wounded and fell on the field, there was only the sky above him: “... there is nothing but silence, calm. And thank God!..” Andrei’s fate after the Battle of Austrelitz was unknown. Kutuzov wrote to Bolkonsky’s father: “Your son, in my eyes, with a banner in his hands, in front of the regiment, fell as a hero worthy of his father and his fatherland... it is still unknown whether he is alive or not.” But soon Andrei returned home and decided not to participate in any military operations anymore. His life acquired apparent calm and indifference. The meeting with Natasha Rostova turned his life upside down: “Suddenly such an unexpected confusion of young thoughts and hopes, contradictory to his whole life, arose in his soul...” Bolkonsky and loveAt the very beginning of the novel, in a conversation with Pierre Bezukhov, Bolkonsky said the phrase: “Never, never get married, my friend!” Andrei seemed to love his wife Lisa, but his judgments about women speak of his arrogance: “Egoism, vanity, stupidity, insignificance in everything - these are women when they show themselves as they are. If you look at them in the light, it seems like there is something, but there’s nothing, nothing, nothing!” When he first saw Rostova, she seemed to him like a joyful, eccentric girl who only knew how to run, sing, dance and have fun. But gradually a feeling of love came to him. Natasha gave him lightness, joy, a sense of life, something Bolkonsky had long forgotten. No more melancholy, contempt for life, disappointment, he felt something completely different, new life. Andrei told Pierre about his love and became convinced of the idea of marrying Rostova. Prince Bolkonsky and Natasha Rostova were matched. Break up on whole year for Natasha it was torture, and for Andrei it was a test of feelings. Having been carried away by Anatoly Kuragin, Rostova did not keep her word to Bolkonsky. But by the will of fate, Anatol and Andrei ended up together on their deathbed. Bolkonsky forgave him and Natasha. After being wounded on the Borodino field, Andrei dies. Natasha spends his last days of life with him. She looks after him very carefully, understanding and guessing with her eyes what exactly Bolkonsky wants. Andrei Bolkonsky and deathBolkonsky was not afraid to die. He had experienced this feeling twice already. Lying under the Austerlitz sky, he thought that death had come to him. And now, next to Natasha, he was absolutely sure that he had not lived this life in vain. Prince Andrei's last thoughts were about love, about life. He died in complete peace, because he knew and understood what love is, and what he loves: “Love? What is love?... Love interferes with death. Love is life..." But still, in the novel “War and Peace” Andrei Bolkonsky deserves special attention. That is why, after reading Tolstoy’s novel, I decided to write an essay on the topic “Andrei Bolkonsky - the hero of the novel “War and Peace.” Although worthy heroes in this work there is enough, and Pierre, and Natasha, and Marya. Work test “He is too good to live” - these are the words of the heroine of the novel by L.N. Tolstoy's "War and Peace" Natasha Rostova spoke about her fiancé, Prince Andrei Bolkonsky. Are these words true regarding of this hero?

After all, if not for the mortal wound that Andrei received on the battlefield, perhaps their love with Natasha Rostova would have had a happy continuation.

But, alas, man does not spare his own kind and absurd confrontations claim many lives of people who, if they remained alive, could bring considerable benefit to the Fatherland. It is this idea that runs through the entire work of Lev Nikolaevich Tolstoy. On the pages of Leo Nikolayevich Tolstoy’s epic novel “War and Peace” you can meet many diverse and interesting characters from a literary point of view. Positive and negative, with their own strengths and weaknesses, in a word - the most ordinary people, of whom there are many in any city and in any country in the world. However, I would like to highlight one hero of the novel separately - of course, Andrei Bolkonsky. Bolkonsky is a deep, extremely intelligent, proud and purposeful person. He is not afraid to openly express his opinion and is able to defend it, and when he decides to do something, he always goes to the end, without putting it off halfway. Bolkonsky is reasonable and rational, he is not prone to rash acts or inappropriate actions, and this integrity of his image certainly attracts and delights both readers and many other heroes of the work. During hostilities, Andrei Bolkonsky reveals himself not only as an educated and smart person, possessing a sober mind, but also as a wise fighter, capable of showing composure and going to certain death without fearing for the safety of his own life. Bolkonsky returns from the battlefield changed - disappointed in his idol, Napoleon, aware of the need not only for constant self-development, but also in the desire to help his homeland win the war - even at the cost of his own death. The hero awakens true patriotism, which consists precisely in love for one’s homeland and an unbridled desire to help it, without creating for oneself either idols or human ideals. In my opinion, Andrei Bolkonsky combines all the most best qualities, which can be imagined in a wise man, and in a brave fighter, and in loving person. He is ready to sacrifice himself for the sake of a great goal, has a philosophical attitude towards life, and at the same time is capable of deeply loving, and sincere friendship, and admitting his mistakes, and forgiving other people, which reveals him as a person of extraordinary generosity and kindness. I believe that in his novel Lev Nikolaevich Tolstoy sought to show readers what a a real hero. Of course, the image of Andrei Bolkonsky cannot be called idealized - he is the same person as each of us, prone to introspection, and to some uncertainty, and to mental anguish, however, he has an inner core, which can be called willpower, strong character, and iron will. This is what allows Bolkonsky to go his own way, delighting and inspiring other people, showing how important and how to be right a good man living in harmony with your conscience and your heart. Option 2Bolkonsky is one of the main characters of the work, through whose example the writer introduces readers to the fate of Russian people during the Russian-French war. Going to a military battle, Bolkonsky dreams of gaining military glory and human love, because Savor it seems empty and worthless to him, but officer service opens up bright prospects for him and the opportunity to realize his ambitions. Serving as Kutuzov's adjutant and being wounded, Andrei rethinks own life and priorities in it, he is severely disappointed in Napoleon, whom he previously considered a great commander and bowed to his military exploits, but now he sees him as a small, insignificant, worthless person. Having recovered from his wound, Bolkonsky decides to leave the service and devote his life to his family, but the sad news awaits him that his wife died in childbirth. With the help of a friend, Pierre Bezukhov, who convinces Andrei to continue living and fight excruciating suffering, Bolkonsky recovers from a life blow and meets his true love in the person of the pure, young and purposeful Natasha Rostova. The lovers get engaged, but Natasha's accidental flirtation, which Bolkonsky cannot understand and forgive, leads to their separation and dissolution of the engagement. Andrei returns to the scene of hostilities again, no longer having ambitious plans for his military honors, his main desire is protection native land and Russian people from the French invaders. Bolkonsky does not shy away from the front ordinary people, cares about his colleagues, people are proud of their officer, admire and love him. During the Battle of Borodino, Prince Andrei Bolkonsky is seriously wounded, which becomes fatal for him. Andrei accepts death calmly; it did not frighten him. The prince dies with the consciousness of fulfilling his duty to his homeland, thoughts of a life not lived in vain and true sincere love experienced. Seeing his beloved again before his death and forgiving her for betrayal, Bolkonsky feels again that enthusiastic feeling of revived love, which no longer has a future, but Andrei is still happy, because he has a road to eternity ahead of him. Essay Image of Andrei BolkonskyThe work of Lev Nikolaevich is the greatest value in world literature. His rare gift of writing allows him to take the reader through joy and sorrow, through love and betrayal, through war and peace and show development in the smallest detail inner world each its own hero. Reading Tolstoy, you begin to better understand the dual nature of human soul and learn to realize the consequences of your actions in advance. One careless word can destroy someone's life, and for a moment of weakness you will have to pay for many years. My most valuable literary way is the noble Prince Andrei Bolkonsky. He is a man of his word, a man of honor and a man of action. Tolstoy honored him with a short but bright life. By right of birth, Prince Andrei belonged to the elite of society. He was handsome, smart, educated, had a beautiful wife and all the accompanying benefits of high society. But this did not please young Bolkonsky; he considered such a life boring and meaningless. He dreamed of great things that could benefit the whole country, so at the first opportunity he went to war. Military everyday life, devoid of secular hypocrisy and idle tinsel, allows us to consider Prince Andrei as a real person with a strong character and an integral nature. He is a hero, he is a patriot. But the prince’s extremely integral worldview, built over many years, collapses in an instant. The sky destroys it. The eternal sky above the battlefield, the serene sky above the wounded hero. And all logical structures break down, forcing Andrei Bolkonsky to build a new theory of his existence. It’s so Tolstoyan, to take and destroy all the hero’s previous life guidelines in one shot. And then, after the war, there will be peace. A wonderful world in which there is hope, love and young Natasha. She is so young that she has not yet seen either a war or a ball. It is a logical continuation of the blue sky, which told the prince about a new life, about a new world, where there are other simple human meanings. Not only the aristocratic public, but also ordinary people. Bolkonsky is interested in reform activities, but the bureaucratic machine quickly disappoints the big-thinking prince. In addition, the peaceful utopia of Andrei Bolkonsky is destroyed by the innocent Natasha Rostova. This betrayal hurt the noble prince. Latest peace of mind was given to Prince Andrey herself at a high price. On his deathbed, he comes to a whole armful of new feelings that allow him to learn to forgive. Natasha, who has grown up and became familiar with betrayal and war, is caring for the terminally ill Andrei. Why Tolstoy decided to kill my favorite hero remains a mystery to me. Apparently, to emphasize that a person cannot live in a too contrasting world of black and white thinking. Because life is precisely in the intervals between war and peace, where you need to be able to forgive, find compromises or answer for your thoughts to the fullest extent. |
