Famous American poet and writer Eleanor Murry Sarton, known to millions Readers like May Sarton have the oft-quoted words: “Think like a hero and you will behave like a decent person.”

Much has been written about the role of heroism in people's lives. This virtue, which has a number of synonyms: courage, valor, bravery, is manifested in the moral strength of its bearer. Moral strength allows him to pursue real, real service to his homeland, people, and humanity. What is the problem with true heroism? Different arguments can be used. But the main thing about them is: true heroism is not blind. Various examples of heroism are not simply overcoming certain circumstances. They all have one common feature- bring a sense of perspective to people's lives.

Many bright classics of literature, both Russian and foreign, sought and found their bright and unique arguments to illuminate the topic of the emergence of the phenomenon of valor. The problem of heroism, fortunately for us, readers, is illuminated by the masters of the pen in a bright, non-trivial way. What is valuable in their works is that the classics immerse the reader in peace of mind a hero whose high deeds are admired by millions of people. The topic of this article is a review of some of the works of the classics, in which a special approach to the issue of heroism and courage can be traced.

Heroes are around us

Today, unfortunately, a distorted concept of heroism prevails in the philistine psyche. They are immersed in their own problems, in their own little selfish world. Therefore, fresh and non-trivial arguments on the problem of heroism are fundamentally important for their consciousness. Believe me, we are surrounded by heroes. We simply don’t notice them because our souls are short-sighted. Not only men perform feats. Take a closer look - a woman who, according to doctors, is unable to give birth in principle - is giving birth. Heroism can and is demonstrated by our contemporaries at the patient's bedside, at the conference table, in the workplace, and even at the kitchen stove. You just need to learn to see it.

The literary image of God is like a tuning fork. Pasternak and Bulgakov

Sacrifice distinguishes true heroism. Many brilliant literary classics are trying to influence the beliefs of their readers, raising the bar for understanding the essence of heroism as high as possible. They find creative strength to uniquely convey to readers the highest ideals, telling in their own way about the feat of God, the son of man.

Boris Leonidovich Pasternak in Doctor Zhivago, an extremely honest work about his generation, writes about valor as the highest emblem of humanity. According to the writer, the problem of true heroism is revealed not in violence, but in virtue. He expresses his arguments through the mouth of the protagonist’s uncle, N.N. Vedenyapin. He believes that the beast dormant in each of us cannot be stopped by a tamer with a whip. But this is within the power of a self-sacrificing preacher.

A classic of Russian literature, the son of a theology professor, Mikhail Bulgakov in his novel “The Master and Margarita” presents us with his original literary interpretation of the image of the Messiah - Yeshua Ha-Nozri. The preaching of Good with which Jesus came to people is a dangerous business. Words of truth and conscience that go against the foundations of society are fraught with death for those who utter them. Even the procurator of Judea, who, without hesitation, can come to the aid of Mark the Ratboy, surrounded by the Germans, is afraid to tell the truth (at the same time, he secretly agrees with the views of Ha-Nozri.) The peaceful messiah courageously follows his destiny, and the battle-hardened Roman commander is a coward. Bulgakov's arguments are convincing. The problem of heroism for him is closely connected with the organic unity of worldview, worldview, word and deed.

Henryk Sienkiewicz's arguments

The image of Jesus in an aura of courage also appears in Henryk Sienkiewicz’s novel “Kamo Gradesi”. Bright finds the Polish literary classic shades to create a unique plot situation in his famous novel.

After Jesus was crucified and resurrected, he came to Rome, following his mission: to convert the Eternal City to Christianity. However, he, an unnoticed traveler, as soon as he arrived, witnesses the ceremonial entry of Emperor Nero. Peter is shocked by the Romans' worship of the emperor. He doesn't know which ones to find this phenomenon arguments. The problem of heroism, the courage of a person ideologically opposed to the dictator, is illuminated, starting with Peter’s fear that the mission will not be completed. He, having lost faith in himself, runs away from Eternal City. However, leaving the city walls behind, the apostle saw Jesus in human form coming towards him. Amazed by what he saw, Peter asked the Messiah where he was going: “Where are you coming?” Jesus replied that since Peter had abandoned his people, there was only one thing left for him to do - to go to the crucifixion a second time. True service certainly requires courage. Shocked Peter returns to Rome...

The Theme of Courage in War and Peace

Russian classical literature is rich in discussions about the essence of heroism. Lev Nikolaevich Tolstoy, in his epic novel War and Peace, raised a number of philosophical questions. The writer put his own special arguments into the image of Prince Andrei, following the path of a warrior. The problem of heroism and courage is painfully rethought and evolving in the minds of the young Prince Bolkonsky. His youthful dream - to accomplish a feat - gives way to understanding and awareness of the essence of war. To be a hero, and not to appear, is how people change life priorities Prince Andrey after the battle of Shengraben.

Staff officer Bolkonsky understands that the real hero of this battle is the battery commander Skromny, who is lost in the presence of his superiors. The object of ridicule of the adjutants. The battery of a small and frail, nondescript captain did not flinch before the invincible French, inflicted damage on them and made it possible for the main forces to retreat in an organized manner. Tushin acted on a whim; he did not receive an order to cover the rear of the army. Understanding the essence of war - these were his arguments. The problem of heroism is rethought by Prince Bolkonsky, he radically changes his career and, with the assistance of M.I. Kutuzov, becomes a regiment commander. In the battle of Borodino, he, who raised the regiment to attack, was seriously wounded. The body of a Russian officer with a banner in his hands is seen by Napoleon Bonaparte as he circles around. The French Emperor's reaction is one of respect: "What a beautiful death!" However, for Bolkonsky, the act of heroism coincides with an awareness of the integrity of the world and the importance of compassion.

Harper Lee "To Kill a Mockingbird"

Understanding the essence of the feat is also present in a number of works by American classics. All young Americans study the novel “To Kill a Mockingbird” in schools. It contains an original discussion about the essence of courage. This thought comes from the lips of lawyer Atticus, a man of honor, taking on a fair, but by no means profitable, case. His arguments on the problem of heroism are as follows: courage is when you take on a task, knowing in advance that you will lose. But you still take it and go to the end. And sometimes you still manage to win.

Melanie by Margaret Mitchell

In the novel about the American South of the 19th century, she creates a unique image of the fragile and sophisticated, but at the same time courageous and brave Lady Melanie.

She is sure that there is something good in all people, and is ready to help them. Her modest, neat house becomes famous in Atlanta thanks to the sincerity of the owners. During the most dangerous periods of her life, Scarlett receives such help from Melanie that it is impossible to evaluate.

Hemingway on heroism

And of course, one cannot ignore Hemingway’s classic story “The Old Man and the Sea,” which tells about the nature of courage and heroism. The fight between the elderly Cuban Santiago and a huge fish is reminiscent of a parable. The arguments on the problem of heroism presented by Hemingway are symbolic. The sea is like life, and old man Santiago is like human experience. The writer utters the words that have become the leitmotif of true heroism: “Man was not created to suffer defeat. You can destroy it, but you can’t defeat it!”

The Strugatsky brothers "Picnic by the road"

The story introduces its readers to a phantasmagoric situation. Obviously, after the arrival of aliens, an anomalous zone formed on Earth. Stalkers find the “heart” of this zone, which has unique property. A person who finds himself in this territory receives a harsh alternative: either he dies, or the zone fulfills his every desire. The Strugatskys masterfully show the spiritual evolution of the hero who decided on this feat. His catharsis is convincingly shown. The stalker has nothing selfish or mercantile left, he thinks in terms of humanity and, accordingly, asks the zone for “happiness for everyone,” and such that there are no people deprived of it. What, according to the Strugatskys, is the problem of heroism? Arguments from literature indicate that it is empty without compassion and humanism.

Boris Polevoy "The Tale of a Real Man"

In history Russian people There was a period when heroism became truly widespread. Thousands of warriors have immortalized their names. High rank of Hero Soviet Union was assigned to eleven thousand soldiers. At the same time, 104 people were awarded it twice. And three people - three times. The first person to receive this high rank was ace pilot Alexander Ivanovich Pokryshkin. On just one day - April 12, 1943 - he shot down seven planes of the fascist invaders!

Of course, to forget and not convey such examples of heroism to new generations is like a crime. This should be done using the example of Soviet “military” literature - these are Unified State Exam arguments. The problem of heroism is illuminated for schoolchildren using examples from the works of Boris Polevoy, Mikhail Sholokhov, Boris Vasiliev.

Front-line correspondent of the Pravda newspaper Boris Polevoy was shocked by the story of the pilot of the 580th fighter regiment Alexey Maresyev. In the winter of 1942 above the sky Novgorod region he was shot down. The pilot, wounded in the legs, crawled for 18 days to reach his own people. He survived and made it, but his legs were “eaten” by gangrene. Amputation followed. In the hospital where Alexey lay after the operation, there was also a political instructor. He managed to ignite Maresyev with a dream - to return to the sky as a fighter pilot. Overcoming the pain, Alexey learned not only to walk on prosthetics, but also to dance. The apotheosis of the story is the first air battle carried out by the pilot after being wounded.

The medical commission “capitulated.” During the war, the real Alexey Maresyev shot down 11 enemy planes, most of them - seven - after being wounded.

Soviet writers have convincingly revealed the problem of heroism. Arguments from the literature indicate that not only men, but also women called to serve, performed feats. Boris Vasiliev's story “The Dawns Here Are Quiet” amazes with its drama. A large sabotage group of fascists, numbering 16 people, landed in the Soviet rear.

Young girls (Rita Osyanina, Zhenya Komelkova, Sonya Gurevich, Galya Chetvertak), serving at the 171st railway siding under the command of foreman Fedot Vaskov, die heroically. However, they destroy 11 fascists. The sergeant major discovers the remaining five in the hut. He kills one and captures four. Then he surrenders the prisoners to his own, losing consciousness from fatigue.

"The Fate of Man"

This story by Mikhail Aleksandrovich Sholokhov introduces us to the former Red Army soldier - driver Andrei Sokolov. The writer reveals heroism simply and convincingly. It didn’t take long to look for arguments that touched the reader’s soul. The war brought grief to almost every family. Andrei Sokolov had it in abundance: in 1942, his wife Irina and two daughters were killed (a bomb hit a residential building). The son miraculously survived and after this tragedy volunteered to go to the front. Andrei himself fought, was captured by the Nazis, and escaped. However, a new tragedy awaited him: in 1945, on May 9, a sniper killed his son.

Andrei himself, having lost his entire family, found the strength to start life “with clean slate" He adopted a homeless boy, Vanya, becoming his adoptive father. This moral feat again fills his life with meaning.

Conclusion

These are the arguments to the problem of heroism in classical literature. The latter is truly capable of supporting a person and awakening courage in him. Although she is not able to help him financially, she erects a boundary in his soul that Evil cannot cross. This is what Remarque wrote about books in Arc de Triomphe. The argumentation of heroism occupies a worthy place in classical literature.

Heroism can also be presented as a social phenomenon of a kind of “instinct of self-preservation”, only not of individual life, but of the entire society. A part of society, a separate “cell” - a person (the most worthy ones perform feats), consciously, driven by altruism and spirituality, sacrifices himself, preserving something greater. Classic literature is one of the tools that helps people understand and comprehend the non-linear nature of courage.

The events of the story are dedicated to the memories of the feat of the teacher of the Belarusian village of Seltso, Ales Moroz. During the occupation, under the leadership of a teacher, an anti-fascist group was organized in the village, which included students. Moroz transmitted information from the Sovinformburo, which he listened to on his radio. He wrote propaganda and kept all of Seltso and the partisans informed about events. The guys decided to kill policeman Cain, who was particularly cruel. The teacher forbade them, but they still carried out their daring assassination plan. They were arrested. The Nazis announced that they would release the boys if the teacher surrendered voluntarily. Ales Moroz understood perfectly well that this was a lie, but he had to come and support the guys. He comes to the fascists, but the children are not released, and the teacher is executed along with his students. Years later, when they decide to erect an obelisk to young heroes, the question arises: is it necessary to write down the teacher’s name on the monument. The head of the district believes that Moroz’s act was reckless because he did not save anyone. But Timofey Tkachuk, a witness to those events, believes that the teacher accomplished a feat.

2. V. Bykov “Alpine Ballad”

Ivan Tereshka miraculously managed to escape from the concentration camp. Breaking away from the chase, he discovered that a young, fragile Italian woman, Julia, had followed him. He didn’t need a travel companion, but he couldn’t leave the weak girl either. The feeling of mercy takes over, and when Julia, exhausted, can no longer run, he puts the girl on his shoulders and carries her throughout the whole night. The love between Ivan and Julia arose suddenly and captured them completely. “Something unsaid, secondary, which kept them at a distance all the time, was overcome, experienced happily and almost suddenly...” So in this scary world war, among the Alpine mountains they learned what happiness is, even if it is as sudden and brief as a flash of lightning. The next day the chase overtook them. They tried to rise higher and higher, avoiding the bullets of the Nazis. But this path was a dead end: the gorge ended in a bottomless abyss. Ivan noticed a large snowdrift below and, gathering all his strength, threw Julia onto the saving snow. At that moment, the dogs that had caught up attacked him, and “An unbearable pain pierced his throat, a gloomy sky flashed in his eyes for a moment, and everything went out forever...”. So soviet soldier sacrificed his life to save his beloved girl.

3. B. Vasiliev “And the dawns here are quiet..”

Sergeant Major Vaskov commands the 171st patrol, and a platoon of anti-aircraft gunners is under his command. Discovered by chance by Rita Osyanina, a landing force of two, as it seemed to her, decided to liquidate the fascists with a small force. Vaskov takes five girls with him, each of whom has their own scores to settle with the Nazis. The fight turns out to be unequal: there are not two fascists, but sixteen. It is clear that it will not be possible to survive. Vaskov, saving the girls, commands them to leave, and he himself tries to lead the Nazis to the swamp. But neither Rita Osyanina nor Zhenya Komelkova can leave the foreman. Soon they meet. Now Zhenya is trying to lead the Nazis away from the wounded Rita and dies, shot at point-blank range. Vaskov hides the wounded Rita in a rock ledge, covering her with branches; she asks to give her a revolver so she can shoot back from the Nazis if they find her. Vaskov leaves her, but after walking away a few steps, he hears a shot: the girl sacrifices herself, saving the foreman. So all the heroines of this story die saving their comrades in arms. But the Nazis did not pass and did not achieve their goal. The victory went to the girls from Rita Osyanina's platoon.

Composition

In difficult times of war, when hunger and death become constant companions, not everyone is given the ability to sacrifice themselves for the good of the Motherland. IN this text V.M. Bogomolov invites us to think about the problem of heroism.

Addressing this problem, the author cites as an example the story of the “heroic voyage”, which during the Great Patriotic War was able to deliver ammunition to the other side through shelling and explosions. The writer focuses on the nondescript nature of the “steamboat” transporting a barge with boxes, and on the unimpressiveness of the crew itself, consisting of three people. However, all this was just a first impression. Later V.M. Bogomolov shows us the indestructibility of the “old Volgar”, who was not at all afraid of the shelling, and the self-sacrifice of Irina and the soldiers who, through smoke, fire and the risk of flying up into the air at any moment, saved the boxes from the fire. The author brings us to the idea of ​​the incredible fortitude of the entire crew, ready to sacrifice their lives for the sake of preserving ammunition and the further victory of their Fatherland in the war.

The author believes that heroism is a sense of duty to one’s people and one’s Fatherland. Selflessly defending their homeland during the war, the fighters are driven precisely by heroism, an urgent need to help their homeland in any way.

I completely agree with the opinion Soviet writer and I also believe that a sense of patriotism, a sense of duty to the fatherland can make a person, despite any difficulties, commit heroic deeds.

We can observe the manifestation of true heroism in Boris Polevoy’s story “The Tale of a Real Man.” This work is based on real facts from the biography of fighter pilot Alexei Maresyev, who, having been shot down in battle over occupied territory, with damaged feet, but not a broken spirit, made his way through the forest for a long time and ended up with the partisans. And later, having lost both legs, the hero, driven by the desire to do as much as possible for his country, again takes the helm and replenishes the treasury of aerial victories of the Soviet Union.

The problem of heroism and courage is also revealed in the story of M.A. Sholokhov "The Fate of Man". The main character, Andrei Sokolov, who lost his entire family, was still able to repay his debt to his homeland with the last of his strength. He was a military driver until the end, and when he was captured, he was not embarrassed for a moment in front of Miller, was not afraid of death, and showed him all the power of the Russian character. Later, Sokolov escaped from captivity and, even being terribly exhausted and tormented, was still full of readiness to sacrifice himself for the sake of victory.

Thus, we can conclude that in the all-consuming, all-destructive conditions of war, the simplest person, endowed only with a deep sense of love for the Motherland and a sincere desire to help, can show himself to be a true hero.

THE PROBLEM OF PERSISTENCE AND COURAGE OF THE RUSSIAN ARMY DURING MILITARY TESTS

2. Ray Bradbury in his novel Fahrenheit 451 shows what happened to humanity after all books were completely destroyed. It may seem that in such a society there is no social problems. The answer lies in the fact that it is simply unspiritual, since there is no literature that can force people to analyze, think, and make decisions.

THE PROBLEM OF EDUCATION OF CHILDREN

1. In the novel by I.A. Goncharova "Oblomov" Ilya Ilyich grew up in an atmosphere of constant care from parents and educators. As a child, the main character was inquisitive and active child, but excessive care led to Oblomov’s apathy and weak-willedness during adult life.

A young man dies at the hands of his father, who could not forgive the betrayal and selfishness of his youngest son.

2. It is unacceptable when love becomes an obsession, as in the case of the main character of P. Suskind's "Perfumer. The Story of a Murderer."
