Evgeny Bazarov - Characteristics of the Hero of the Novel
Fathers and children are an eternal theme that will never lose its relevance. Today we are children who do not accept the way of life of parents, and tomorrow we are fathers who do not understand the actions of children. This theme became the basis of Turgenev's novel "Fathers and Sons". The conflict between the generations and between the socio-political beliefs of the heroes of the novel is described . The novel was written in the 60s, now the century before last. And this time, when the contradictions of democrats and liberals intensified in connection with the question of the removal of serfdom.
Ivan Sergeevich was born into a noble family. His mother, Varvara Nikolaevna, adhered to strict feudal customs and orders in the family. She believed that corporal punishment is a universal measure of suggestion. It is clear that not only the guilty serfs, but also her own children were punished. They sliced for everything: for an unlearned lesson, an incomprehensible joke, for the most trivial prank. In this cruel home school of life Turgenev learned to feel compassion, to pain sympathize with other people's tortures. But back to the topic of our article.
Bazarov - Characteristics of the Hero
"Fathers and children" narrates about two friends - Arkady Kirsanov and Eugene Bazarov. The characteristic of the latter is a description of the pragmatist. A person lives a permanent job. He is not distracted by tenderness, does not recognize art, the beauty of music or poetry.
Bazarov and Kirsanov - comparative characteristics
Pavel Petrovich is a true gentleman with the habits of an aristocrat. He is a follower of the old order. In his opinion, only aristocracy is able to develop society. Therefore, he is alien to, just hated by Bazarov. The characteristic of their relationship is this: Kirsanov is an ardent defender of the old order, and Bazarov seeks to eradicate these orders.
Generally, Turgenev conveys the inconsistency of both sides. A good old, but already frozen state is Kirsanov. An incomprehensible new, but a living condition is Bazarov. The characteristic of Kirsanov's insolvency is that you can not stay in one state, you need to move forward. And people like Bazarov are harbingers of change. But they are not yet perfect, they understand that everything needs to be changed, but they do not know how to do it right. You can not completely destroy the old without building something new. But in any case - the future belongs to such as Eugene Bazarov.
