Ruff blamed these residents for askingwith the family to live in Rostov oozero, from time immemorial, being their patrimony, coming from somewhere in the Volga, and then spread the children, settled in and drove the peasants from this place, taking possession of the undivided Rostov Lake, their hereditary possession.
What were the names of the residents of Rostov Lake and the judges, inwhat they blamed Ruff, we found out. Now we find out that he answered his accusers. Ruff said that he came from small boyars, did not rob and did not beat anyone, because his property was always Lake Rostov, which was owned by his grandfather, Ruff, and Chub and Leshch, his accusers, were slaves to his father.
In turn, the Ruff accuses these peasants ofthat they showed ingratitude, forgetting that he ordered them to live at home, letting go, and they went to the Volga during the famine and there they settled along the bays, and then began to encroach on his head. The Court complains to Ruff that the Chub and Leshch themselves are robbers and thieves and want to completely destroy it. Completes his story accused that mentions his acquaintance with clerks, boyars and princes who eat him - straightens the stomachs from a hangover.
The bream and the Chub, the plaintiffs, refer, in response to a request from the judges, to witnesses and ask that they be heard.

They say that he comes from the lowest kind, and not at all from the boyars, but brazenly lies about his acquaintance and friendship with the boyars and princes, because only poor people, the taverns and hawks, who are good for fish, are well aware of it.

С вниманием выслушивает суд истцов, ответчика и witnesses and sentences: to justify the Chub and Leshcha, and ruff to convict and extradite the plaintiff. Execute the defendant with a trade penalty for rooting and stealing, hanging in the sun on a hot day.

Time to create a satirical Russian tale ofYershe Ershoviche - the end of the 16th - the beginning of the 17th century. Judging by the described place of action, it was written somewhere in the vicinity of the city of Rostov. Researcher A. M. Panchenko pointed out that this work arose as a reflection of land litigation, which became very frequent after the Time of Troubles. N.A. and A.V. Afanasyev also assumed that the story of the litigation with the heirs of Peter, the Horde prince, Rostov princes, which was described at the end of another work - The Tales of Peter, Prince Ordynsk, could be the basis of this story.
This story is considered one of the most popularworks of the 17th century, relating to the satirical. Today there are 4 main editions in which there are stories about Ersh Ershovich, which are in more than 30 different lists of the 17-19 centuries. Alterations can also be found: this is a fiction (junkie) of the late 17th century (which refers to how the Ruff was caught and eaten) relating to splint to the second half of the 18th century, and this work turned into fabulous folklore. According to researcher V. V. Mitrofanova, this tale has become established in the Russian oral tradition.
The writer Vasily Bely shifted this story in a modern way.
In 1978, based on the work of the film director S. M. Sokolov, he made a cartoon entitled “About Ersh Ershovich”.
"Повесть о Ерше Ершовиче", анализ которой мы hold, written in the form of a court case. Parodied in the work of Russian legal proceedings of the period of 16-17 centuries, its language and procedures are given in the text with irony. This is the main theme of the "Tale of Ershe Ershovich". Creates a comic effect a combination of fish characters and social characteristics in the characters. In the future, this technique used Saltykov-Shchedrin in his fairy tales.
There is also a play on words in the work.
Social orientation in the "Tale of Ruff"Yershovich "is not present. The author does not condemn Ruff, and the sympathetic attitude to this character is strengthened in later editions. Being enterprising and brave the Ruff, unlike slow-witted, stupid plaintiffs, witnesses and judges. parallels between the main character and the cunning fox in other Russian fairy tales.
With a common plot, each of the editions of the workindependent of the artistic organization of the story and language. If in the first one there is a strong imitation of the style of an official document, then already in the second much more attention is paid to the sound of the text itself (rhyme, rhythm, tautology, paronomasia, etc.).
