hide many interesting Russian proverb.Their interpretation - some fun for both professionals and non-professionals.We propose to consider in this paper the well-known saying: "none of my business, I know nothing" - its meaning and significance.
Fear of silence indifferent people
There is a maxim, which teaches that indifference be afraid more than negative emotions, it seems like this: "With the tacit consent of all the troubles indifferent place on earth."We are not to protect those who are all "damn," but recall that the preaching indifferent inaction and can not, for example, to administer evil.Thus, they, of course, possible, and to blame, but on a par with someone else.
saying "none of my business, I know nothing," pursuing the same vice.
usually so said the people who lived on the edge of the village, that is. E. Their house was really on the edge.Then, with the passage of time it is the physical location has become almost metaphysical and figurative and began to express a certain way of life principle.
Russian people and the well-known saying
In fact, as he wrote NABerdyaev: "The soul of the Russian people a collective nature, and the soul of the European - the individual."And it is true.Remember the peasant communities, the Soviet Union, when people were almost violently tied to the team and turned inside out and presented to the public, even the most intimate and secret events of his personal life.It was, for example, is such a thing as a "friendly court."The main point of it is to make some moral evaluation of human behavior, even his personal, private life.Then many, probably, I would say, "none of my business, I know nothing" - but it was impossible.
proverb and modernity
Now we have the opposite: people help each other only at the border, crisis situations, when it is impossible not to help.The rest prefer to keep a low profile and go about their business.On the one hand, we can take this to representatives of our nation's public censure, but on the other hand, this increase in individualism is justified.First, because the speed of life leaves little time for other people's problems solution, with its to handle.Secondly, there is a possibility that if a person is fail-safe as a Kalashnikov rifle, it will simply be used whenever the opportunity.Therefore it is sometimes safer to say "none of my business, I know nothing" - and "pretend hose."And now is the time unexpected literary encounters.
Mikhail Zhvanetskiy
our famous humorist and satirist beat the famous saying in his work "Fenya, my wife."There's a story: a man from the first person tells how he successfully married.When he was criticized for its indifference to almost everything, from political events and ending with grandma, fallen in the street, true hero responds to the author's style, the reader does not understand jokes Michal Mikhailovich, or is it quite seriously.Anyway, that's so funny that commercials.If the hero of something ask why so why syak, he says: "It's not me, it's a Baubles".Ends are all eloquent words: "Each and Baubles!".And it could have ended this way: "none of my business!" The saying, as we see, for all occasions."Hut" Zhvanetsky in style in this context is not appropriate.
Albert Camus."Outsider»
We now turn to another author and genre.In his famous novel by the famous Frenchman gave the image of a man indifferent to everything.The refrain of the novel: "I do not care."Camus had his problem, he wanted to create a visual image of human absurdity, but this is known only to specialists.Ordinary reader only sees a person very apathetic.
begins an affair with the famous lines, "Today my mother died.Maybe yesterday - I do not know. "At the funeral of his tormenting heat, and in front of the coffin, he fatally want coffee and a smoke, and the smoke is even stronger.In other words, the mountain is not too interested in it.Meursault is not going to drop a tear in front of strangers, and special loss he does not feel the relationship with her mother had been cool.
Love is the same story.Only the proximity of death brings the hero of existential torpor.
So we hope we were able to show that saying "none of my business" has universal significance.In principle, it can be used as a Russian and a Frenchman, but we it is closer in spirit and style.
