In this article we will talk about the story "Horse withpink mane. Astafev Viktor Petrovich, the author of the work, has long been included in the school curriculum. The writer often turned to the village theme. These stories are considered by us. In the article we will take a closer look at the images of the main characters of the work and its summary.
The narrative in the work is from the firstfaces. With the help of colloquial speech reproduces the unique Siberian dialect Astafev. "The horse with a pink mane", the main characters of which are distinguished by their distinctive speech, full of dialectisms, is also rich in figurative descriptions of nature: the habits of animals and birds, rustles and sounds of the forest, river landscapes.
Now let's talk about the structure of the work:
Grandma sends a storyteller with neighborschildren for strawberries on the whip. If the hero picks up a hollow tube, she will buy him a reward - “horse carrot”. This gingerbread, made in the form of a horse with a tail, mane and hooves in pink glaze, was a cherished dream of all the village boys and promised them honor and respect.
The narrator goes for the strawberries along withchildren of Levontius, their neighbor who worked as a logger. It depicts the Astafyev village dwellers of different standard of living and wealth (“Horse with a pink mane”). The main characters and his family are very different from the Levontians. So, every 15 days, when Levnti was paid, in his family, where there was usually nothing, a real feast began. And Vasena, the wife of Levontius, ran to hand out debts. At such a time, the narrator tried to get into the neighbor's house by all means. There he was pitied as an orphan and was treated to goodies. But the grandmother did not let her grandson, she did not want him to communicate with the Levontus. However, the money quickly ended, and after a couple of days, Vassena again ran through the village, already lending.
The Levontiev family lived poorly, they did not even have their own bath. And tyn, built each spring, in the fall, understood the kindling.
Meanwhile, the protagonists set off over the berry.Astafyev (“The horse with a pink mane” in this respect is a very significant work) depicts not only social differences between families, but also moral ones. When the narrator had already collected a nearly full basket of strawberries, the Levontievskys started a quarrel over the fact that the younger children ate the berry instead of collecting it. The fight began, and all the strawberries poured out of the dishes, and then eaten. After that, the guys went to the Fokinskaya River. And then it turned out that our hero had a whole berry. Then Sanka, a senior Levontiev boy, knocked down the narrator to eat her, taking "on weak."
Only in the evening did the narrator remember that his picture was empty. He was afraid to go home empty-handed. Then Sanka “suggested” how to be - put herbs in a dish and sprinkle it with berries.
So now we can answer the question ofwhat are the main characters of the story. V.P. Astafiev, as it is not difficult to notice, focuses attention not only on the narrator. Therefore, we can rank Sanka and grandmother as the main characters.
But back to the story.The grandmother praised her grandson for rich prey and decided not to pour the strawberries - and carry to sell. On the street, the narrator was waiting for Sanka, who demanded payment for his silence - rolls. The narrator had to steal them from the pantry, until the neighbor boy was full. At night, the conscience would not let the hero sleep, and he decided in the morning to tell everything to his grandmother.
But grandmother left before the main one woke upthe hero of the story "A horse with a pink mane." Vitya went fishing with Sanka. There, from the shore, they saw a boat on which a grandmother was floating, threatening her grandson with her fist.
The narrator returned home late at night and sleepwent to the pantry. The next morning my grandfather came back from the memorial, who ordered me to ask for forgiveness from my grandmother. Having devoured the hero, Katerina Petrovna set him to breakfast. And she brought the gingerbread to him, the very “horse”, the memory of which remained with the hero for many years.
The main character of the work is Vitya.This boy has lost his mother and now lives in a Siberian village with his grandparents. Despite the difficult times for the family, he was always shod, dressed, full and well-groomed, because both his grandmother and grandfather took care of him. Vitya was a friend of Levontiev’s children, which Katerina Petrovna didn’t like, as the latter were poorly brought up and misbehaving.
Очень выразительными получились все главные герои.Astafyev (“Horse with a pink mane”) depicted them with his own unique features. Therefore, the reader immediately sees how Vitya differs from Levontiev children. Unlike them, he thinks not only about himself, he knows what responsibility and conscience are. Vitya is well aware that he is doing badly, and this is torturing him. While Sanka simply uses the situation to fill his stomach.
Therefore, the case of gingerbread so shook the boy that he remembered him for life.
Итак, еще какие главные герои рассказа? В. П.Astafyev, of course, attaches great importance to the image of Katerina Petrovna, Vitya’s grandmother. She is a representative of the past generation, very sociable and talkative, thorough and reasonable, thrifty. When Vasena tries to give more money than she borrowed, the grandmother reprimands her, says that you cannot handle money like this.
Katerina Petrovna loves her grandson very much, but brings up in strictness, often demanding, scolding Vitya. But all this is because she worries and worries about his fate.
Бабушка главная в доме, она всегда всем commands, so her cues usually sound like orders. However, Katerina Petrovna can be delicate, which is manifested in her conversation with the buyer of strawberries.
Levontievsky children are also protagonists in the story.Astafyev ("Horse with a pink mane") distinguishes among them the eldest - Sanka. This is a reckless, greedy, angry and unprincipled boy. It is Sanka who forces Vitya to eat the berry first, then lie to the grandmother, and to top it off, and steal cakes from the house. He lives on the principle "if everything is bad for me, then everyone should have the same." It does not have that reverence for elders that Viti has.
Little is said about Uncle Levontius, he is describedonly at the beginning of the work. This is a good-natured man, a former sailor who has preserved the love of freedom and the sea. He is very kind to Vita, he pities him - he is an orphan. But Levanty has one negative trait that prevents him from living well — drunkenness. There is no wealth in their family, because there is no owner. Everything takes Levonti's drift.
These are the main characters in the story.Astafyev (“The horse with a pink mane” is an autobiographical story) has invested a lot in the characters and in the story from his childhood. Perhaps that is why all the characters turned out so alive and original.
