Alexander Griboedov is an outstanding dramatist of the firsthalf of the nineteenth century, the work of which was considered below was included in the classics of Russian literature. Served Griboyedov in the diplomatic part, but he remained in history as the author of a brilliant masterpiece - the comedy "Woe from Wit", the character of which is studied in the framework of the school curriculum. All the events of the play take place in Moscow for one day, in the house of Pavel Afanasevich Famusov.
Characteristics of the characters "Woe from Wit" - comedies inverses and in four acts - can be carried out according to a certain plan. The list of actors with explanations of the author is given, as a rule, at the beginning of the play.
On what plan is the characteristicheroes "Woe from Wit"? First, it is necessary to tell about the social status of the hero, secondly, about the features of his character, thirdly, about the system of views and values.
Pavel Afanasyevich Famusov is a nobleman anda landowner who occupies a high official post. Character arrogant, overbearing. With subordinates and servants, he is rude and strict, but flattered and servilely subdued with those who are higher in rank and rank. Famusov is a hospitable and hospitable host, his guests are often welcomed in his house. A caring father, loves a daughter, wants to marry her successfully. Pavel Afanasyevich does not accept any changes in society, an opponent of progress. The customs and way of life of the old Moscow nobles are considered ideal.
What is the characterization of the characters "Woe from Wit"can do without a description of the main female image? Famusov's daughter received a traditional noble education: from infancy she was trained in brides. Thanks to a lively mind, strong character and healthy instincts, she is well versed in people, judging by accurate and accurate statements about the guests of the father. Sofia is not only mocking, but also vindictive: she does not forgive Chatsky a contemptuous attitude to Molchalin, in whom he is in love. This she lets an unseemly rumor, which grows into a huge gossip about the madness of Alexander.
But she herself can not escape the personal tragedy.The reason was that Sophia Famusova takes for the enamored hero a pathetic flatterer and a silent saint. The lady, the well-read novels, pride in his silence nobility, modesty and chivalry.
His talking name MOLCHALIN completelyjustifies. He comes from Tver, not a nobleman, but he makes big plans, because the rank of assessor and the service of the home secretary is not considered the peak of his career. Thanks to hypocrisy and ability to serve, this friend of "sofa dogs" "tipto" hopes to climb high up the career ladder. The love of Sophia gives a miserable "wordless" hope for a successful and profitable marriage, which did not take place. From now on, he will be more mean, but more cautious.
What is the characterization of the characters "Woe from Wit" withoutthe main character? Without Chatsky Alexander Andreevich? He is a young, not poor nobleman. The fact that Chatsky hurried to Sofia, returning after a three-year absence, said that he considered the Famusovs to be close people: he grew up in their house after the death of his father. Sophia at first gives him flattering characteristics, noting sharp sharpness and eloquence. But the merciless criticism of the morals and way of life of the Moscow nobility, undertaken by him, is unpleasant to her.
Apparently, Alexander had the opportunity to compare anda lot to rethink, therefore he so negatively speaks about the existence of slavery and the absence of freedom in the country. Chatsky - the bearer of a new worldview, inherent to a few in modern Russia.
Sophia was not happy with that passionate feeling,which CHATSKY experienced for her. She herself said that "reluctantly" drove him crazy. It seems that this thought became the impetus for her stupid outburst, which threw the passionate Chatsky into the abyss of "a million torments" and made her disappointed and leave Moscow.
The comedy was written in 1823, but eachthe generation of readers, schoolchildren and critics who describe the characters, "Woe from Wit" examines through the prism of contemporary realities. And it seems that the characters created by Griboyedov will never lose their relevance.
