Science of Man
Gorky called literature of the human sciences, it is still considered a teacher and a textbook of life.Evidence of such an assessment does not need to prove.At the same time, reading is seen by many as the only way to have fun, to fill leisure time.Of course, the entertainment function - one of the most important in any art, but Gorky called literature of science.A science - it is a tool of knowledge.Literature, too.It shapes our perception of the world, attitude, awareness of his behavior in it.The ability to implement these features makes the literary work relevant.The relevance - it is not an optional feature, a required property.Without it, text - only text, and it can not be called art.Then it will be fiction.But how to understand the meaning of the word "relevant" to the literature?This is not a fashionable dress, the latest news, a business plan or a specific solution to a specific problem.How can you explain what is the relevance of the Homeric poems, created long before our era?Or "Plachý" Aitmatov wrote only about thirty years ago, but in the country and a country which no longer exists?The answer is obvious - it is the sharpness and the issues raised are universal, the author's reflections on the eternal questions, divining the future and warning against this.
pass from theoretical considerations to practical material.Let us try to understand what is the relevance of the example of the work "scaffold."
Not to ascend the scaffold
What are the challenges of the modern world have become aggravated to the extreme?Cruelty, violence, drug abuse, natural disasters.All this Aitmatov wrote.How to deal with it, also said.The writer sees a direct relationship between social, public life and the life of nature, and the expansion of the first two leads to the death of the latter, and thus to self-destruction of the human race.In life is increasingly becoming the hunters - for marijuana, money, career, fame, power.For a human life.
We considered the foundation of our activities concern the improvement of human existence, and the concept of humanity associated only with humans.This led to the approval of the idea of man's dominion over nature, and she rebelled downpours and droughts, floods and earthquakes, crop failures and fires.Modern society is experiencing a real epidemic and not one.The epidemic of drug abuse, victims are young people.Inspirituality epidemic that swept the whole of society.Epidemic environmental disasters of a global nature.In this context it easy to understand what is the relevance of the history of man's relationship with the world described in the novel.Which path to choose where and how to go?All these questions are looking for answers to the main characters of the novel Chingiz Aitmatov.
The "scaffold" raised not just by itself the problem of drug addiction, alcoholism, the writer concerned primarily internal, spiritual condition of man, the problem of the future of the younger generation, its moral basis.The destruction of animals Moyunkumskoy Savannah is a warning: while the process takes place and the destruction of natural principle in man himself.And perhaps all for himself.
problem of good and evil, the author connects with the main question of the day about whether to preserve life on Earth.Whether humanity will survive, as it is in a technocratic XXI century?Pain per person, all actuality, Aitmatov wrote about - that's what the relevance of "Plachý."When the broken unity, when the connection of man and nature is broken, they become enemies and become disastrous for their opposition.Violation of harmony leads to tragedy, the human race is on the chopping block!When out of balance, the victims need to recover it.And on the chopping block are the best sons of humanity as it was two thousand years ago at Calvary.For when criminals back on the block - this redemption, not the victim.
temporal and eternal in literature
said enough to make sure: the angle at which to consider any of this work, its relevance is no doubt.But in any creation there are specific echoes of time are important only for the writer's contemporaries.In the "chopping block" is the image of a Communist.In the "Divine Comedy" - images of politicians and priests with their struggle for power.In "Hamlet" - the inheritance of the royal power, and so on. D. That means sitting down at work, before proceeding to the analysis should be clearly determine what the relevance of the chosen theme, whether it can lead to the conclusion important for us today.How does this conclusion may be, again, look at an example of the novel Aitmatov.
Reflecting on the meaning of human existence on Earth, Kyrgyz writer leads the reader to understand: the meaning - in cultivation, in the pursuit of the ideals of good, for the path to recovery is through a return to the eternal truths to the fundamentals.
