Strawberry Artemy Filippovich isthe trustee of charitable institutions. In the comedy "The Inspector" of Nikolai Vasilyevich Gogol, this is a minor character. The strawberry is a slander and gossip, issuing out of greed all the ins and outs of officials, their colleagues, the alleged auditor. This is a brief description of the Strawberries from the "Inspector".
Character features of Strawberries
Let's take a closer look at this image.About one of his colleagues, the superintendent of the schools, Strawberry says he does not understand how such a post could entrust him with the authorities. Indeed, in his opinion, this man is "worse than the Jacobin." He inspires adolescent rules inappropriately. In these words the characteristic of the Strawberry from the "Inspector" is described in more detail. One can see a man accustomed to occupy the place of his colleagues, podzhizhivat them.
Hypocrite and careerist, very fussy and helpfulArtemy Filippovich Strawberry. The characteristic ("Revizor") of his appearance is as follows. The body of the official has an impressive size. He is a knave and mischievous in nature, which reinforces the comic effect in the work. Clumsy and clumsy, he manages to slip to a good finale in any twists and turns of fate.
Hospital situation
Characteristics of the Strawberries from the comedy "Revizor"It is also revealed to the reader when Gogol describes the method of controlling this person. It consists in the following: good intentions to justify their actions. For example, saying that he does not buy expensive drugs for charitable institutions, he justifies himself in time: "the closer to nature, the better." But we understand from the context that in this way he simply saves on people.
Disorder and dirt reign in hospitals.Cooks wear dirty hats, and the patients themselves wear clothes like they worked in a forge. Patients, in addition, constantly smoke. Artemy Filippovich does not bother to determine the diagnosis and treatment of patients.
Nikolai Vasilyevich speaks about the incredibleindifference to their duty of serving people through the characteristics of a guardian of charitable institutions. This is a "fat" man, but a "rogue thin." Patients in the hospital assigned to his management are dying like flies. The doctor does not speak Russian (German Gibner Christian Ivanovich), while Strawberry thinks calmly that the Russian is a simple man - he will die, he will die like that, and he will recover, and so will recover.
Strawberry skill to quit
Is able to Strawberries and slave.The mayor is precisely why Khlestakov is the first to take him to charitable institutions under his jurisdiction. On the question of why there are almost no patients in one of them, he finds in response a fatal excuse that “like flies,” everyone here is recovering. Khlestakov, not distinguished by special care and ingenuity, does not notice a dirty trick in Strawberry's speech. The superintendent of charitable institutions, knowing his dignity as the main thing - to curry favor, envies sincerely to Khlestakov. Parodying a middle-ranking official who receives more from his position than he gives to people as a limitless sovereign, Gogol created an image that survived the centuries. And after a century, it is not morally obsolete, is today quite relevant.
Strawberry - careerist
Strawberries, this hardened careerist, believesthat for moving ahead on a career ladder any means are good. He, like the mayor, is ready to appear, if not a man of high virtues, then at least an extremely conscientious and executive official. In an effort to earn a reputation on denunciations and pacing, he "sells" without hesitation his "friends." Strawberry at the same time assures Khlestakov that commits such acts "for the benefit of the fatherland." This official will never miss an opportunity to be content with the knowledge that flattery and sycophancy will pay for themselves completely. The keen feeling of envy causes him the elevation of the mayor, which is noted in the work of Gogol ("The Inspector"). Characteristics of the strawberry in general terms was presented by us. We also note the features of the characters in the comedy we are interested in.
