analysis Sevastopol stories

December

Although fighting continued in Sevastopol, life goes on. Hot buns sell traders, men - sbiten. Strangely mixed here with peace and life in the camp. All are frightened, scurrying around, but this deceptive impression. Many people do not notice the explosions and gunfire, doing "everyday business". Only on the bastions you can see the defenders of Sevastopol.

Hospital

A Description of the hospital continues Tolstoy, "Sevastopol stories". Summary of this episode follows. Wounded soldiers in the hospital share their impressions. Lost his leg pain can not remember, since did not think about it. In otnosilsya my husband's dinner to the Bastion of woman hit by a shell, and her above-the-knee cut leg. Surgery and ligation are doing in a separate room. Waiting queues wounded see in horror as the doctors amputated the legs and arms of their comrades, a paramedic throws indifferently in the corner cut off body parts. So, describing the details, Tolstoy holds in the work of "Sevastopol stories" analysis. In August nothing, in fact, will not change. The same people will suffer, and nobody will understand that war is inhuman. Meanwhile, the spectacle of these shakes the soul. The war is presented not in a brilliant, beautiful build, with drums and music, and in its present expression in the death, suffering, blood. Fought on the most dangerous Bastion of the young officer complains not for the abundance of shells and bombs falling on the heads and on the dirt. This is a reaction to danger. The officer is too relaxed, casually and boldly behaves.

On the way to the fourth Bastion

Sevastopol stories analysis in August

Less on the way to the fourth Bastion (the most dangerous) are non-military people. Come across increasingly stretchers with the wounded. Artillery officer behaves here in peace, because he is used to the roar of explosions and whistling bullets. The hero tells how his battery during the assault there was only one effective weapon, and very few servants, but next morning he was again fired from all the guns.

The Officer recalls how sailor dugout was hit by a bomb, putting 11 people. In the movements, the posture, the faces of the defenders seen the main features that constitute the strength of the Russian people, the stubbornness and simplicity. However, as the author notes, the suffering, the anger and the danger of war added to them the traces of thoughts and feelings, and a consciousness of their own dignity. Tolstoy holds in the work of psychological analysis ("Sevastopol stories"). He notes that a sense of revenge in the enemy, malice lurks in the soul of everyone. When directly at the person flying the core, it does not leave with a sense of fear some enjoyment. Then he has to expect himself to get the bomb closer exploded - there is in this game of death "special charm". The feeling of love for the country lives in people. In Russia will leave great traces events in Sevastopol.

In may

Tolstoy Sevastopol stories analysis

Continuing the events of the works of "Sevastopol stories" in may. Analyzing the duration, it should be noted that since the fighting began in this city has been held for six months. Died during this period many. The fairest solution seems to be the original way of conflict: if two soldiers were fighting, one from the Russian and French armies, and the victory would have been for the party he has fought for a winner. Logical decision, as to fight better one on one than 130 million versus 130 thousand From the point of view of Leo Tolstoy, the war is illogical. This is either crazy or people are not really intelligent creatures, as is commonly thought.

Officer Mikhailov

Military walk the boulevards in the besieged city. Among them is an infantry officer Mikhailov, long-legged, tall, awkward, round-shouldered man. He has recently received from a friend a letter. It Ulan retired says Natasha, his wife (a close friend of Mikhailov), watching with fascination in the papers that his regiment moves and feats Mikhailov. He remembers with bitterness the same circle which meet to such an extent that the soldiers when he told them about his life (how he played with a civilian General cards or danced at the Governor's balls), indifferent, and incredulously listened to him.

Dream Mikhailov

The officer wants to raise. On the Boulevard he meets Obrosova, captain, and ensign suslikova. It is the officers of his regiment. They greet Mikhailov, shake his hand. However, the officer to deal with them is not desirable. He longs for the society of aristocrats. Leo talks about vanity, conducts his analysis. "Sevastopol stories" - a work in which many of the author's digressions, reflections on philosophical topics. Vanity, according to the author, "the disease of our century." Therefore, there are three types of people. First take the beginning of vanity asyou need an existing fact, and therefore fair. These people freely obey him. Others view it as insurmountable, miserable condition. Others slavishly, unconsciously acting under the influence of vanity. So says Tolstoy ("Sevastopol stories"). The analysis is based on personal participation in the events, on the observations of people.

Twice Mikhailov goes hesitantly past the circle of aristocrats. In the end he dare to say Hello. Previously, this officer was afraid to approach them because these people could not honor him at all answer the greeting and to prick the sore ego. Aristocratic society is the Prince of Galitzin, adjutant Kalugin, captain and Lieutenant-Colonel Paskuhan Nefedov. They behave in relation to Mikhailov quite arrogant. Galzin, for example, takes the officer by the arm and walks him a bit only because he knows that this will bring pleasure to him. However, they soon begin to talk with each other defiantly, making it clear Mikhailov I don't need more in his company.

The captain returned home, remembers that the next morning volunteered to go to the Bastion instead of the sick officer. It seems to him that he would be killed, and if that happens, you will be rewarded. The captain consoles himself that his duty is to go to Bastion that he acted honestly. He is wondering down the road where he might get hurt in the head, belly or feet.

A gathering of aristocrats

The Aristocrats of the time, Kalugin drinking tea, playing the piano. They behave not so pompous, it's important and unnatural as the Boulevard, showing off their "gentility" to others that said Tolstoy ("Sevastopol stories"). Analysis of the behavior of the characters in the novel occupies an important place. With the instructions included infantry officer to the General, but immediately the aristocrats accept the newly inflated view, pretending not to have noticed the newcomer. Kalugin, after seeing to the General of the courier, imbued with responsibility. He reports that there is a "hot deal".

The defense of Sevastopol "Sevastopol sketches" is described in some detail, but we will not stop there. On a mission called go Galzin, knowing that's not going anywhere because he is afraid. It is accepted to dissuade Kalugin, knowing also that he would not go. Out on the street, Galzin begins to walk aimlessly, do not forget to ask the wounded passing by, how goes the battle, but also blame them for the retreat. Going to the Bastion Kalugin along the way, don't forget to show courage: with the whistle of bullets bends over and takes on a horse dashing pose. It amazes unpleasant "cowardice" of the battery commander. But the courage of this man is legendary.

Mikhailov wounded

Sevastopol stories analysis

Spent six months at the Bastion and does not want to risk the battery commander sends Kalugin in response to his demand to explore the Bastion to the guns with a young officer. Pasquino orders General to notify about the relocation of the battalion Mikhailov. He delivers it successfully. Under fire in the darkness, the battalion starts moving. Proskurin and Mikhailov, walking side by side, they only think about the impression they produce on each other. They find themselves unwilling to expose once again the danger Kalugin, who learns from Mikhailov about the situation and turns back. Bomb explodes near him. Paskuhan dies, shot in the head Mikhailov, however, does not go to the dressing, thinking that duty calls.

All the military the next day walking in the Mall and talk about yesterday's events, showing your bravery to others. Declared a truce. The French and Russian to communicate easily among themselves. Between them there is hostility. Understand how the war is inhuman, these characters. It notes the author, through the work of "Sevastopol stories" analysis.
