“Blue fog. Snowy expanse ... "

“Blue fog. Snow expanse ... "Sergey Yesenin

Blue fog. Snow expanse
Subtle lemon moonlight.
It is pleasant to the heart with a quiet pain
Anything to remember from early years.

The snow on the porch is like quicksand.
With the same moon without words,
Having pulled a hat from a cat on his forehead,
I secretly left my father’s firewood.

I returned to my dear land again.
Who remembers me? Who has forgotten?
I stand sadly, like a persecuted wanderer -
The old master of his hut.

Silently I crumple up my new hat
I don't like sable fur.
I remembered my grandfather, I remembered my grandmother,
I remembered the loose graveyard snow.

Everyone calmed down, everyone will be there,
As in this life, do not be happy, -
That's why I'm so drawn to people
That's why I love people so much.

That's why I almost cried
And, smiling, his soul went out, -
This hut on the porch with a dog
As if I see in last time.

Analysis of Yesenin's poem “Blue fog. Snow expanse ... "

In the 1970s-1980s, versions appeared that Yesenin was killed, and not committed suicide. At various times, literary envious people, Jews, and security officers were accused of committing a cruel reprisal against the poet. Sometimes the versions were really fantastic. One of the most original ideas - Sergei Alexandrovich was killed somewhere, subsequently transferring the body to the room of the Leningrad hotel "Angleterre". However, there is still no theory, apart from the officially accepted one, that would be in full accordance with the facts. The fact is that at the end of 1925 the poet's state of mind left much to be desired. For about a month, he underwent a course of treatment in a Moscow neuropsychiatric hospital, from which he went to Leningrad. On the eve of his departure, Sergei Alexandrovich visited his relatives to say goodbye.

Yesenin's desire for death was clearly manifested in his work. The lyrics from 1923 to 1925 refer to suicide many times. Even more often the poet speaks of his imminent death. An example is philosophical poem“Blue fog. Snowy expanse ... ”dated the end of September 1925. Through the ring composition, Yesenin shows the vicious circle of human life. In the work, the lyrical hero returns to his father's house. At the same time, he recalls how he once left his native hut, putting on "a hat made of a cat on his forehead." Many years have passed, marked by cardinal changes. Some relatives and close people of the lyric hero passed away. But he managed to become wealthy. But the new hat made of expensive sable fur turned out to be not to my liking.

The poem contains several images characteristic of Yesenin's poetry - a village hut (a symbol of the home), a dog (the personification of devotion). Once again, a wanderer appears. It appeared back in early lyrics Sergei Alexandrovich. This image was born of the poet's childhood memories: together with his grandmother, Yesenin went on short pilgrimages.

In the work “Blue Fog. Snowy expanse ... ”the landscape is static - at the very beginning, a description of a winter night is given, and afterwards nothing changes. Interestingly, Sergei Alexandrovich usually showed nature in dynamics. Perhaps, in the poem under consideration, the immobility of the painted picture is associated with the stop of the lyrical hero - he freezes to comprehend his life, reflect on the topic of death, think about the past and the future.

Of all the Russian lyrics of the twentieth century. the poetry of S.A. Yesenin. His works are colorful, clean, light and naive. Over time, Yesenin began to write more serious poems, filled with reflections on life, about the years he had lived, and about what he had achieved in life. But most importantly, the later poems remained as receptive as the earlier ones. One of them is the poem “Blue Mist. Snow expanse ".

The theme of the poem “Blue fog. Snow Expansion "- a philosophical understanding of life and a person's place in it. These questions have long worried Yesenin, and he tries to solve them, but, unfortunately, this only leads to suffering.

The poet talks about how the lyric hero returned to his home, from which he left a long time ago, years passed, he matured, and memories flooded into him, and he realized how much he lost in life, "secretly leaving his home." The main idea is that sooner or later everything leaves, and you yourself choose your own path, so that later there is nothing to be sad about.

The general mood of the poem is sad, sad, making you think along with the lyrical hero.

There is a conflict in the poem, not obvious, but in the soul of the hero, he “secretly left his father’s home” and returned “like a persecuted wanderer,” lonely, useless, the hero blames himself for the mistake he made. Epithets create an uncomfortable atmosphere, everything seems alien and distant: "blue fog", "snow expanse", "moonlight", "snow like quicksand sand", "sable fur", "loose snow". Immediately at the beginning of the poem, the poet compares "moonlight" with "lemon", acid instantly appears in the mood, this is a kind of poet's technique for better perception of his experiences.

This poem is the denouement of the life of the lyrical hero, “having returned to his dear land again,” he realizes that he has nothing else to do here, no one is waiting for him here. In the last three quatrains, he remembers a lot, compares with each other and finds answers to questions that he did not understand before.

The poem is based on a circular composition. She allows us to trace life path hero, when he “left his father’s home” in a valiant fashion “a hat made of a cat, on his forehead, having pulled it on”, and when he “returned to his dear land again”, feeling “like a persecuted wanderer”. Arriving again in his native village, the lyrical hero realizes that he is lonely, and there is not a single loved one left in his heart. He asks rhetorical questions: “Who remembers me? Who has forgotten? " The answer is obvious - no one remembers, everyone has forgotten. He is enveloped in memories of past years, he remembers his grandfather, grandmother, the old cemetery where they are buried. Involuntarily, he thinks about life and death, concludes: "Everyone has calmed down, we will all be there, / How happy in this life, do not be happy." These reflections give him the answer to yet another question about why he “loves people” so much.

The opposition of the past and the present is the leitmotif of Yesenin's philosophical lyrics. The poet cannot accept reality and constantly returns to the past; he cannot part with it in any way, since everything here is alien to him. But the past is good only when you remember it. The poem is based on the antithesis of the past and the present: "home shelter" - "a persecuted wanderer", "a hat made of a cat, on his forehead, pulling it on" - "silently, I crumple a new hat, / I don't like sable fur."

In my opinion, to create a poem, the main idea is the return of the hero to his native land. And on the first line “Blue fog. Snowy expanse ”, we can hear the music that sounds in the soul of the poet when he takes up the pen, it is sad, but then we see a smooth transition into more melodic, heart-piercing music that allows the soul to warm up.

I was delighted with this poem, such complex reflections, perception of life, the poet could so easily and briefly put on paper. Yesenin was an excellent pen master. His lyrics are great. I am glad that I got acquainted with his works, because I took a lot of useful things from life experience Yesenin. I hope this knowledge will not be wasted.

Being a sublime romantic and dreamer, like any poet, in his work, S.A. Yesenin was at the same time a cruel realist in the perception of life. The writer looked at reality as a chronologically strictly limited segment. Throughout his conscious creative life, the poet, willingly or unwillingly, sought to expand the short boundaries of being in this world, despite the fact that the famous Latin aphorism “Memento more” (“Remember death”) can be considered a good epigraph to most of Yesenin's poems. In a whole series of works of temporal finiteness, cyclical completeness, spatial infinity is opposed. For example, the poem “Blue fog. Snowy expanse ... ”opens with a serene picture of a sleeping winter nature. The piercing sadness of memories is combined in the soul of the lyrical hero with the joy of returning to his home, to the origins. His contradictory feelings are conveyed by oxymoric-sounding lines (“It is pleasant to my heart with quiet pain to remember something from my early years”, “That's why I almost cried And, smiling, went out with my soul”). Entangled in the complexities and intricacies of fate, the lyric hero stands at the threshold of his father's house, painfully choosing for himself his next life role. Who is he? "Master of his hut" (in the broad sense of fate) or "persecuted wanderer"?

Every everyday detail in this poem takes on a philosophical sound. It is curious, for example, that the lyrical hero leaves home wearing an unassuming hat from a cat, and returns crowned with prosperity, wearing a new sable hat. But in the face of an inevitable tragic loss (loss of deceased relatives and friends), a premonition of his imminent departure ("This hut on the porch with a dog As if I see the last time"), the values of the material world lose their significance. Eternal and unchanging appears in the work only "thin lemon moonlight". As many as three epithets (two of which are harmoniously combined due to sound doubling and explain the first as well as possible) emphasize the ideological significance of this image, at the same time give it artistic expression... Everything earthly is perishable, like "loose", "like sand, quicksand."

Izba (a symbol of the traditional way of life) is the compositionally central image in the work. The image of a dog that appears in the last sixth stanza is also semantically important in the poem. It expands and complements the theme of the lyrical hero's farewell to the world, for the image of a dog is traditionally in its symbolic sound correlated with the image of a friend. The key idea of the work is contained in the fifth stanza:

Everyone calmed down, everyone will be there,

As in this life, do not be happy, -

That's why I'm so drawn to people

That's why I love people so much.

Here it is, Yesenin's humanism, about which researchers talk and write so much. With a keen sense of the fragility of earthly existence, the poet proclaims man himself as the highest value in this world. Leaving for another world, a person remains to live not behind a cemetery storehouse, but only in the memory of people who knew him and in his father's house, where every single object and corner keeps and remembers the warmth of his hands. And the beauty of his soul remains in the memory of the people who knew him. It is no coincidence that, returning to his native land, the lyric hero asks himself: “Who remembers me? Who has forgotten? " Obviously, this is extremely important psychologically for him.

The romantic uplifting of a small landscape sketch in the opening lines of the work looks in contrast to the tragic notes of its finale ("This hut on the porch with a dog As if I see it for the last time"). The lyrical hero, having barely returned from the distant wanderings of life, is not willingly forced to say goodbye to his home again, and this time forever.

However, in general, the poem "Blue fog. Snow expanse ... "is unusually static, while for most of S. Yesenin is characterized by a dynamic figurative row. Throughout the development of the lyrical plot, the hero stands at the porch of the hut. And what surrounds him? Only a parade of memories, and the "blue fog" and "moonlight" are images that semantically actualize the theme of innuendo, obscurity and ignorance.

Repetitions play an important compositional role in the work. They are concentrated in the most philosophically significant stanzas of the poem (fourth and fifth). Moreover, S.A. Yesenin uses repetitions different types... These are, first of all, the so-called anaphoric repetitions, that is, repetitions at the very beginning of verse lines (“I remembered my grandfather, I remembered my grandmother, I remembered the loose graveyard snow”; “That is why I am so drawn to people, That is why I love people so much. That is why I almost cried ").

V this work there are also repetitions within the lines (“Everyone has calmed down, everyone will be there”, “be happy, don’t be happy”) and numerous sound doubling - such repetitions in which one sound or two sounds, and sometimes a whole sound combination, are repeated in the adjacent words of the line, so by providing the greatest figurative expressiveness and melodic sonority both to individual lines and to the entire work ("lemon moon", "a hat made of a cat", "squeezing on my forehead", "I love people").
