A tale in a bad society Marusya. In a bad society
She lives with her brother and father in an old dilapidated chapel, or rather, in a stone dungeon. The roof of the chapel collapsed, the walls crumbled, and the underground is dark, cold and damp.
Maroussia was thin and pale. Under the light brown hair, but from the mud, looked a face with blue sad eyes. At four years old, she was too tiny and helpless, her head bobbing on a thin neck like the head of a field bell. Despite her age, she did not walk well: she fell all the time, stumbled and swayed like a blade of grass. The girl never ran and laughed very rarely, she was wearing an old and dirty dress. Her hair was never braided with ribbons, she just didn't have them. And her look was not childishly sad. Marusya almost never ran, but played quiet, calm games, for example, she sat quietly and went through flowers. She also laughed very rarely, but if this happened, then her laughter was very quiet and resembled the ringing of a field bell ..
The girl loved her brother and father very much, and always rejoiced at the arrival of Vasya (the boy with whom she and her brother became friends). When Vasya came, she shouted with joy: "Hurray, Vasya, he's come!"
Marusya had a weak body, weak legs, so she did not always stay on her feet. Marusya had thin arms and legs, a thin body. Her small tiny body with legs as thick as a thin stick, could not walk.
The cold and dampness of the dungeon affects the girl's health. Little Marusya begins to fade away gradually. She's getting worse and worse. This gray stone, drop by drop, sucked out of her blush, fun, laughter and even life. Her father has no money to invite a doctor to a sick child and buy medicine. Kind heart Vasya suffers at the sight of a sick girl and in order to please her with something, he brings her a large and beautiful doll.
What joy was Marusya when she saw the doll! For a while, Marusa even felt better and she seemed to start to recover a little. But the disease did not recede and Marusa became even worse. She stopped recognizing her relatives.
Marusya herself was kind and appreciated kindness. The little girl even justifies the theft, because thanks to the stolen, she can appease hunger. A feeling of joy and a feeling of sadness, sadness, and maybe even pain inside, replace each other. She showed joy when her brother and their new friend came. Sadness and sadness were visible when she was dying and when she felt a loss of strength and energy
When I read the story, it was not clear to me how you can live without housing and without money? I was very sorry for her and not only this poor, little girl. When Marusya died, tears flowed from my eyes, I didn't want it so much ... The story made a depressing impression on me. This is a very sad story ... And I really want all people and especially children to have their own cozy houses and happy families.
To convey summary"In a bad society" a few trivial sentences are not enough. Despite the fact that this fruit of Korolenko's creativity is considered to be a story, its structure and volume are more reminiscent of a story.
On the pages of the book, a dozen characters await the reader, whose fate will move along a loop-rich track for several months. Over time, the story was recognized as one of the best opuses that came out of the writer's pen. It was also reprinted many times, and a few years after the first publication it was slightly modified and published under the title Children of the Dungeon.
The main character and the scene
The main character works - a boy named Vasya. He lived with his father in the city of Knyazhye-Veno in the Southwestern region, inhabited mainly by Poles and Jews. It will not be superfluous to say that the city in the story was captured by the author "from nature." Exactly the second is recognized in landscapes and descriptions half of the XIX century. The content of "In a Bad Society" by Korolenko is generally rich in descriptions of the surrounding world.
The child's mother died when he was only six years old. The father, busy with judicial service and his own grief, paid little attention to his son. At the same time, Vasya was not prevented from getting out of the house on his own. That is why the boy often wandered around his hometown, full of secrets and mysteries.
Lock
One of these local attractions was which formerly served as the count's residence. However, the reader will find him not in better times... Now the walls of the castle are destroyed from impressive age and lack of care, and its interior has been chosen by the beggars of the immediate vicinity. The prototype of this place was the palace that belonged to the noble family of the Lubomirskys, who bore the title of princes and lived in Rovno.
Scattered, they did not know how to live in peace and harmony because of the difference in religion and conflict with the former count's servant Janusz. Using his right to decide who has the right to remain in the castle and who does not, he pointed the door to all those who did not belong to the Catholic flock or the servants of the former owners of these walls. Outcasts, however, settled in a dungeon, which was hidden from prying eyes. After this incident, Vasya stopped visiting the castle, which he had visited before, despite the fact that Janusz himself called the boy, whom he considered the son of a respected family. He didn’t like what the exiles were doing. The immediate events of Korolenko's story "In a Bad Society", a summary of which cannot do without mentioning this episode, begin from this very point.
Acquaintance in the chapel
Once Vasya and his friends climbed into the chapel. However, after the children realized that there was someone else inside, Vasya's friends cowardly fled, leaving the boy alone. In the chapel, there were two children from the dungeon. They were Valek and Marusya. They lived with the exiles who were evicted by Janusz.
The leader of the entire community hiding under the ground was a man named Tyburtius. Summary "In a bad society" can not do without its characteristics. This personality remained a secret to those around him, almost nothing was known about him. Despite his penniless lifestyle, it was rumored that the man had previously been an aristocrat. This conjecture was confirmed by the fact that the extravagant man quoted ancient greek thinkers... Such an education did not in any way correspond to his common people appearance. Contrasts gave the townspeople a reason to consider Tyburtia a sorcerer.
Vasya quickly became friends with the children from the chapel and began to visit and feed them. For the time being, these visits remained a secret for those around them. Their friendship withstood such a test as Valek's admission that he steals food in order to feed his sister.
Vasya began to visit the dungeon itself, while there were no adults inside. However, sooner or later, such negligence should have betrayed the boy. And during his next visit Tyburtsiy noticed the judge's son. The children were afraid that the unpredictable owner of the dungeon would expel the boy, but he, on the contrary, allowed the guest to visit them, taking his word that he would be silent about the secret place. Now Vasya could visit friends without fear. This is the summary of "In a Bad Society" before the start of the dramatic events.
Dungeon dwellers
He met and became close to other exiles of the castle. These were different people: former official Lavrovsky, who loved to tell incredible stories from your past life; Turkevich, who called himself a general and loved to visit under the windows of eminent residents of the city, and many others.
Despite the fact that they all differed from each other in the past, now they all lived in harmony and helped their neighbor, sharing the modest life that they had arranged by begging on the street and stealing, like Valek or Tyburtsiy himself. Vasya fell in love with these people and did not condemn their sins, realizing that they were all brought to such a state by poverty.
Sonya
The main reason the protagonist ran away into the dungeon was the tense atmosphere in his own home. If the father did not pay any attention to him, then the servant considered the boy a spoiled child, who, moreover, constantly disappeared in unknown places.
The only person who pleases Vasya at home is his younger sister Sonya. He is very fond of a four-year-old, playful and cheerful girl. However, their own nanny did not allow the children to communicate with each other, because she considered the older brother a bad example for the judge's daughter. Father himself loved Sonya much more than Vasya, because she reminded him of his deceased wife.
Marousi's disease
Valek's sister Marusya fell seriously ill with the onset of autumn. In the entire work "In a Bad Society", the content can be safely divided into "before" and "after" this event. Vasya, who could not calmly look at his friend's grave condition, decided to ask Sonya for a doll that remained after her mother. She agreed to borrow a toy, and Marusya, who had nothing of the kind because of poverty, was very happy with the gift and even began to recover in her dungeon "in a bad society." The main characters have not yet realized that the denouement of the whole story is closer than ever.
Mystery Revealed
It seemed that everything would be okay, but suddenly Janusz came to the judge to inform the inhabitants of the dungeon, as well as Vasya, who was noticed in an undesirable company. The father was angry with his son and forbade him to leave the house. At the same time, the nanny discovered that the doll was missing, which caused another scandal. The judge tried to get Vasya to confess where he goes and where his sister's toy is now. The boy only replied that he really took the doll, but did not say what he did with it. Even a brief summary of "In a Bad Society" shows how strong in spirit Vasya was, despite his small age.
Interchange
Several days passed. Tyburtiy came to the boy's house and gave the judge Sonya's toy. In addition, he talked about the friendship of such different children. Struck by the story, the father felt guilty before his son, to whom he did not devote time and who, because of this, began to communicate with beggars who were not loved by anyone in the city. Finally Tyburtsy told that Marusya had died. The judge allowed Vasya to say goodbye to the girl, and he himself gave money to her father, having previously advised him to hide from the city. The story "In a Bad Society" ends here.
The unexpected visit of Tyburtsia and the news of the death of Marusya destroyed the wall between the main character of the story and his father. After the incident, the two of them began to visit the grave near the chapel, where the three children met for the first time. In the story "In a Bad Society," the main characters could not appear all together in one scene. No one else saw the beggars from the dungeon in the city. All of them suddenly disappeared, as if they did not exist.

Composition based on the work "In a bad society" by V. G. Korolenko "Why do Marusya and Sonya have two different childhoods?"
Two little girls lived in a small place called Knyazhye-Veno. One was called Sonya, and she was the daughter of a city judge. Marusya (the second girl) lived with beggars. They belonged to different social strata and therefore their life was very different. These girls just couldn't have the same childhood.
Four-year-old Sonya lived in love and contentment in a large house with a garden. She grew up cheerful healthy child, was ruddy, round, mobile, always smartly dressed. Her father loved her very much and pampered her. She had many beautiful dresses, braid ribbons, various toys. She was served by an old nurse and a maid. Six-year-old Vasya loved to play with his little sister, he liked her ringing, cheerful laugh.
Little Marusya lived with beggars in an old dungeon. Her life was very hard. She did not have anything that Sonya owned. Cold and hunger, the absence of basic conditions, that was what constituted the life of this poor, unhappy girl. She looked exhausted from constant malnutrition. Thin, pale, she could hardly walk, and her voice was like a barely audible thin bell. The girl could not play outdoor games - she simply did not have enough strength for it. Ten-year-old brother Valek felt sorry for her and loved her and helped her as best he could.
By the example of these two girls, the writer V. Korolenko showed two worlds of childhood: safe and secure, in which the daughter of the city judge Sonya lives, and the joyless world of little Marusya, full of hardships. The gray stone of the dungeons literally sucked the life out of the unfortunate little Marusya. She constantly coughed and weakened literally every day. The girl lived very little (a little more than three years) and it so happened that the biggest joy in her life was a beautiful doll presented by her brother Sonya.
