More than sixty years of "Heart of a Dog" was waiting for the reader.In Germany and England, the story was published in the early 60s, at the same time in the Soviet Union only in "samizdat" lucky it could read, which was not enough.And only in 1987, a work was published in the journal "Banner", and a year later was put on screen by Vladimir Bortko.In 1925 he wrote an MABulgakov "Heart of a Dog", an essay, which still dominates the minds and reveals the meaning of what happened in Russia in those years.
Not Bulgakov
school in the compulsory program of literature for secondary education includes two works by this author: "Heart of a Dog" and "The Master and Margarita."As the son of a professor of theology and grandson of priests, the writer in each of his creation put religious symbols, he made a multilayered plan.Perhaps that is why when rereading his books each time discovering something new.
Despite the complexity of the ideological content, school essay on the novel by Bulgakov's "Heart of a Dog" will have to write.And for this it is necessary to analyze the genre, title, and mainly works.
pamphlet anti-Soviet or anti-utopia?
Usually "Heart of a Dog" is called political satire.It's right.But in part.All that Professor Preobrazhensky says devastation, House Committee and Soviet newspapers - of course, the pamphlet.What reason and what they do Shvonder and balls, too, no doubt, a satire.Yes, and how!Acute.Ruthless.
But the experiment with the dog - dystopia.It shows the birth of a new image of a young man formation, revealed the dangerous trends in the development of such a society.It turns out that as a warning written Mikhail Bulgakov "Heart of a Dog."The writing of the novel must reflect the signs of both genres and satire and utopia.Why
heart dog?
When analyzing the work of the small form (novel, short story, story) recently took its name.So why Bulgakov stopped on this phrase, because the text of Professor Preobrazhensky, fending Bormental about heart Sharikova, says he now is human, but most of all lousy.
in dictionaries adjective "dog", in addition to direct value indicating membership in this animal has other portable conversational reduced with a negative response, indicating that something is difficult, intolerable and cowardly, low and despicable.And then everything becomes clear, the more novel the subtitle - "The horrific incident" - gives a clue about what was going to say Bulgakov."Heart of a Dog" - a satirical essay in his name entered is not an organ of the dog, and spoiled the heart of the latter-day man.
system images
Strange but true: in the satirical works of Mikhail Bulgakov's no goodies.And "Heart of a Dog" is no exception.The professor, who says so right and true exposes the new government commits terrible mistake: the doctor must help people in treating ailments, but he's trying to fix something that is created by God.Transfiguration only then aware of the inadmissibility of such experiments.
Obedient cog newly created formations shown Shvonder - demagogue with mental disabilities, who imagines himself the master of the house.He and Professor - media completely different principles, even comparing them is impossible.
So on someone of the characters you need to focus, when asked to write an essay, "Bulgakov" Heart of a Dog "?"Balls - the result of the experiment FFTransfiguration - he is a major in the story and to what extent the subject of dispute between Shvonder and professor.But I had any sense, this struggle?
Highly person did not work
Everything connected with Orthodoxy, Bulgakov knew thoroughly, and not by chance in his works mentioned specific dates or directions to them.For example, in "Master and Margarita" all indications are that the action takes place in the Holy Week before Easter, as in the story of a ballpoint events start at the end of December, and by January 7 there is a new man - Polygraph Polygraphovich.Neither more nor less, and Christmas Times transformation dog Bulgakov."Heart of a Dog" - an essay, the author says that the pain is not only the destruction of the best that was before the revolution, but also the appearance of being that it will continue to be destroyed, but not theft and zakolachivaniya ceremonial and spiritual devastation.
Why Polygraph?
This name is considered to be an invention of Bulgakov, although it is known that in the calendar the calendar of the proletariat at that time already to his female interpretation.What could have prevented a repetition of the writer: Polygraph Polygraphovich?When creating Mikhail Bulgakov "Heart of a Dog", writing such works could not be relegated to a wide range of readers.It's a pity!Then many would have understood: the name of the protagonist is related to printing, which means - reproduction, that is, they should be a lot.
Writer feared (and in vain) that the ballpoint is perfect for the new government.Deprived of their own opinions, without spiritual ties, traditions, these people will perform not only what they are told, but also take the initiative aimed at the destruction, as they are not able to build on the definition.Write them in order by how casually managed Transfiguration professor, will not work, but to educate young people in this spirit would be real.
That's what should be an essay on the theme "Heart of a Dog."Bulgakov could not get through to his contemporaries, or rather not had the opportunity, but also through many decades of this story as relevant.
Modern science is moving forward, trying to find a cure from illness and prolong the days of man on earth, but we should not forget that, together with a long life, you can get a dog and a heart that age to make a living aimless and useless.
