Essays. Why is the hero Mtsyri close to me? based on the poem Mtsyri (Lermontov M
I really love M. Yu. Lermontov’s poem “Mtsyri”.- my favorite literary hero. He loved freedom very much and strived; To her. He was brought to the monastery when he was very young:
- He seemed to be about six years old;
- Like a chamois of the mountains, timid and wild
- And weak and... flexible like a reed.
Mtsyri, accustomed to freedom, gradually gets used to his captivity. He “...already wanted to pronounce a monastic vow in the prime of his life,” but suddenly on an autumn night the young man disappeared. He could not live in peace - he was sad for his homeland. Even the force of habit could not supplant the longing “but for one’s native side.” Mtsyri decided to flee from the monastery. The dark forest blocks his path to his native place. Escape is a step into an unknown world. What awaits Mtsyri there?
This is a “wonderful world of anxiety and battles,” which the hero has dreamed of since childhood, into which a cell of stuffy prayers has broken out.” Mtsyrl, who ended up in the monastery against his own will, strives to go there “where people are free, like eagles.” In the morning he saw what he was striving for:
“...Lush fields. Hills covered with a crown of trees,” rustling like “brothers dancing in a circle.”
- All around Zhenya God’s garden was blooming;
- Plants rainbow outfit
- Kept traces of heavenly oils,
- And the curls of the vines
- They curled around, showing off between the trees...
Mtsyri feels subtly, understands and loves nature; He rests after the darkness of the monastery and enjoys nature. The young man set off on the journey: “I had one goal in my soul - to go to my native country,” but suddenly “I lost sight of the mountains and then began to lose my way.” Mtsyri was in terrible despair - the forest, the beauty of the trees and the singing of the birds of which he enjoyed, became 4 more terrible and denser every hour.” The young man found himself in an element hostile to him: “darkness watched the night with a million black eyes...”
I'm fascinated by heroic character of Mtsyri. During a fight with a leopard in a moment of danger, the young man felt in himself the skills of a fighter that his ancestors had had for centuries. Mtsyri won and, despite his wounds, continued on his way.
But in the morning he realized that he was lost and came again to his “prison.” The natural world did not save the man who was forcibly torn from it for many years. Mtsyri’s dream was not destined to come true, the wounds from the battle with the leopard were fatal, but he did not regret what happened.
The days spent outside the monastery, he lived a real, free life - the one to which he aspired. Mtsyri is a “prison flower”, “the prison left its mark” on him, and therefore he did not find the path to freedom. The nature with which the hero sought to merge was not only beautiful world, but also a formidable force: it is very difficult to cope with it.
Mtsyri dies. Before his death, he asks to be moved to the garden, because in the last minutes of his life there is nothing closer to nature for him, from there he will be able to see the Caucasus, dear to his heart. Mtsyri strove to understand the world, to merge with nature, to feel as free as nature itself, as its free people.

In 8th grade, it is customary to write an essay based on Mtsyri’s poem. And, of course, we cannot ignore the main character. Why is Mtsyri close to us? What's special about it?
Lermontov, as the author of the work, shows us the serious social problems that he encountered in real life. It was they who led him to write this work. In the image of Mtsyri, he shows a special person and a heroic personality.
The main theme is freedom.
This is what I really like about the hero. He longs for her. The episode of the young man’s fight with the leopard is especially striking. How jealously he fought, how passionately he went into battle. The other half of the readers pay more attention to why Mtsyri fled during the thunderstorm. It’s difficult to answer right away, since this is a strong and multifaceted image.
I think the author tried to show himself, his face and his thoughts. Even the conclusion of Mtsyri’s poem somehow emphasizes the author’s personality. Main character- an amazing character. Readers always find something that is similar to them personally. And I believe that Mtsyri is close to me in spirit and thirst for freedom. No one will steal a person's freedom. No matter how many arguments are given.

The poem “Mtsyri” by the famous Russian writer Mikhail Yuryevich Lermontov really touched me. The main character of this work is a young man who, having been taken from his homeland as a child, subsequently became a novice in a monastery. He was called “Mtsyri”, which in Georgian means “novice”. I think that each of us, having read this work, will find something familiar and dear to us in the image of Mtsyri.
The guy had a very difficult fate: he had to live and grow up away from home with people he didn’t know. At just six years old, he had his first encounter with death. The child fell ill and could have died, but he was saved. It is very hard to imagine that a boy at such a young age had already been captured by a Russian general.
The image of Mtsyri is truly dear to me, first of all, because for me he is the personification of human strength and courage. After all, not even every adult can endure what the guy had to endure.
It is very important that the boy is a patriot of his country: he always wanted to live and die in his homeland, in the Caucasus. What is also important to me is that there is a lot to learn from him. I'm proud of people like him. After all, many would have already resigned themselves to their fate and would not even try to do anything. Mtsyri’s willpower and patriotism are what amazed me. I realized that you need to love your homeland with every fiber of your soul, and only then will you have the right to call yourself a true citizen of your country. And it doesn’t matter at all where you live, the main thing is that you always remember the place where you were born and who you really are, then you can achieve everything you want.
Mtsyri taught me to be a persistent and purposeful person. He showed that even in the most difficult situations you need to go towards your goal and never give up.
The image of Mtsyri is very close to me, and all because I also love my small homeland, but, unfortunately, I, like the hero of Lermontov’s poem, had to leave it. But I am not discouraged and dream of returning there to work for the good of my country and make it better for myself and the people around me.
I, like Mtsyri, have my own goals in life. I really want to finish school and go get higher education to my homeland - I hope that, unlike the unfortunate hero Lermontov, I will be able to fulfill my dream.
I am a very purposeful person, in this Mtsyri and I are also very similar. I always try to achieve the goals that I have set for myself and never pay attention to the obstacles that stand between me and my goal. I, just like the boy, am ready to do anything to achieve everything I have planned.
Mtsyri for me is the embodiment of a real living human soul.
In the poem "Mtsyri" there is a romantic plot, romantic hero and romantic landscape. Confirm this.
In romantic works one can always feel the author’s direct assessment of his characters and their actions and the events depicted. Lermontov openly glorifies Mtsyri’s love of freedom, his courage, his thirst for a life full of “anxiety and battles” that the young man dreams of. The events depicted in romantic works are always bright, exceptional, in them the character of the hero is revealed with extraordinary force (Mtsyri’s escape from the monastery in a thunderstorm, meeting with a young Georgian woman, wandering in a dark forest in search of the lost road to his homeland, a fight with a leopard and the victory of Mtsyri).
The author is interested not so much in the events themselves as in the inner world of the hero, hence Lermontov’s use of Mtsyri’s confessional monologue, which helps “tell his soul” and introduce the reader to his thoughts, feelings, and experiences.
In the center romantic works always a bright, rebellious, heroic personality - such is Mtsyri....

Where the word has not died,

A.I. Herzen
In the book "Mtsyri" Lermontov portrays the hero as a romantic person. This poem was the completion of the tradition of Russian romantic poem.
Mtsyri is a person close to nature, especially its stormy manifestations: “Oh, as a brother, I would be glad to embrace the storm.” He fled from the monastery during a thunderstorm, when the frightened monks were “lying prostrate on the ground.” In Mtsyri there is also a strong national element, the freedom-loving spirit of the mountaineers, their temperament. He combines traits of both strengths and weaknesses: “free youth is strong” - and at the same time he is “weak and flexible, like a reed.” Locked up, Mtsyri grew up unadapted to life and will, this is his...

Why is Mtsyri so unusual? With your focus on a huge, colossal passion, with your will, with your courage. His longing for his homeland takes on some kind of universal proportions that go beyond the usual human standards:
For a few minutes
Between steep and dark rocks,
Where did I shit as a child?
I would trade heaven and eternity.
The nature is proud, immeasurably deep... Such heroes attract romantic writers who tend to look for the exceptional in life rather than the ordinary, “typical”. A person who can say about himself: “I knew only the power of the thought” - this is the element of romanticism.
It seems to me that it is the romantic tone that makes the world of “Mtsyri” so tragic. Let's remember " Caucasian prisoner"L. Tolstoy, where the same edges are depicted. Let us remember Zhilin (and Kostylin, too) who returned safely to his homeland. And next to them is Mtsyri, doomed to death. Doomed - because he is a romantic at heart.

Great, limitless is the legacy of the great poet M. Yu. Lermontov. He entered Russian literature as a poet of strength and action, in whose work one can trace an active striving for the future, a constant search for the heroic. Heroics folk life, heroic reality, heroic character, discovered by Lermontov, have more than once inspired great writers. The heroic theme was reflected in many of the poet’s great works, such as “Borodino”, “Demon”, embodied in images that differ from each other, but are united by one idea of heroic fighters. So is Mtsyri.
In his poem, the author continued and developed the idea of courage and protest inherent in his previous works “Confession” and “Fugitive”. In the image of Mtsyri, as in many other images created by the poet, there is a protesting principle, great strength of spirit. His character amazes with incredible integrity, nobility of motives, and moral purity. He tries to escape from the world that dooms him to loneliness. The monastery becomes...

The image of Mtsyri in Lermontov's poem
The poem "Mtsyri", written by M. Lermontov in 1839, tells the reader about several days in the life of a young novice, about his escape from the monastery and subsequent death. The main characters in the work are reduced to a minimum: this is Mtsyri himself and his elderly teacher-monk. The image of Mtsyri in Lermontov's poem is key - thanks to him, the main idea of the work is revealed.
To create the image of Mtsyri in the poem, Lermontov used a number of artistic and compositional techniques, the first of which was the genre he chose. “Mtsyri” is written in the form of a confession, and the main character is given the opportunity to tell about himself. The author will add only a few lines about the hero’s childhood. From them the reader learns that Mtsyri was brought to the monastery as a child from a mountain village destroyed by the war, suffered a serious illness and was raised as a novice. True, already from this brief description You can get some idea of how the author relates to...

Back in 1830-1831, Lermontov conceived the idea of creating the image of a young man rushing to freedom from a monastery or prison. In 1830, in his unfinished poem “Confession,” he told the story of a young Spanish monk imprisoned in a monastery prison. The character created here is close to Mtsyri. But the poem did not satisfy Lermontov and remained unfinished. However, the poet’s idea to create such a character did not disappear. In one of the notes from 1831 we find: “Write notes of a young monk aged 17. - Since childhood he has been in a monastery... A passionate soul languishes. Ideals..."
But several years passed before Lermontov managed to implement this plan. In 1837, while traveling along the Georgian Military Road, Lermontov met an old monk in Mtskheta who told the poet the story of his life. He is a bitter man by birth: as a child he was captured by the troops of General Ermolov. The general took him with him, but the boy fell ill on the way and was left in the monastery in the care of the monks. Here he is...

The theme of the Caucasus has always been close to Mikhail Yuryevich Lermontov; the nature and customs of this region delighted the poet. And the work in question embodied this love, and also reflected the romantic beginning in the writer’s work. And the image of Mtsyri in Lermontov’s poem “Mtsyri” became key and plot-forming.
The originality of Lermontov's creativity
Lermontov's work became a reflection of the romantic trend in literature. His hero is always alone and confronts the world. Early work is distinguished by the strong influence of Byron, which is embodied in the idealization of the character. Later, the hero becomes original, acquires alienation, accompanied by tragic love, betrayal of friends and thoughts about eternity in solitude.
The tragedy of the poet’s works lies in the invasion of harsh and cruel reality into the hero’s inner world. The image of Mtsyri in Lermontov’s poem “Mtsyri” is largely built on precisely this confrontation. Like all the main characters of the writer, Mtsyri...

A person who loves and knows how to read - happy man. He is surrounded by many smart, kind and loyal friends. These friends are books. Books meet us in early childhood and accompany us throughout our lives.
In the book "Mtsyri" Lermontov portrays the hero as a romantic person. This poem was the completion of the tradition of Russian romantic poem.

Romantic image Mtsyri in the poem of the same name by M.Yu. Lermontov
One of the poems by M.Yu. Lermontov, the theme of which is closely related to his Caucasian cycle, is the poem “Mtsyri”. This is a romantic poem, with an ideal hero, distinguished by a hyperboic personality of experiences. The plot centers on the fate of a captured Circassian boy who ended up in a Georgian monastery. These events were connected with Lermontov’s journey along the Georgian Military Road, which P.A. wrote about. Viskovatov. In Mtskheta, the poet met a lonely monk and learned from him that he was captured as a child by General Ermolov. The general took him with him, but the boy fell ill and had to be left in the monastery. For a long time the child could not get used to his new life, he was sad, tried to run away to the mountains, and as a result he became seriously ill. Having recovered, he calmed down and remained in the monastery. This story made a great impression on Lermontov. In addition, the poet’s imagination was also struck by an old Georgian song about a fight between a young man and a tiger, where there were such...
