A famous researcher of the work and life of the great Russian poet M.Yu. Lermontov Irakli Andronnikov in his article “The Fate of Lermontov” says that, traveling by plane from Moscow to Tbilisi, you first see the plain of Russia, then the steppes of the North Caucasus, then Elbrus appears, and, as on the model, the Caucasian snow sparkling with silver opens into view ridge. “You come into joyful excitement because you see something that has not yet been seen, but has already been anticipated by Lermotov’s poems... How did Lermontov know what Daryal and Kazbek looked like from above?
And, deep down blackening,
Like a crack, the home of a snake,
The radiant Daryal curled...
This is how we see them from the airplane window even now.
Today we will talk about the life and work of M.Yu. Lermontov.
You are already familiar with his poem “Borodino”. He has many more wonderful works.
Let's listen to the story prepared by the speaker.
- Speaker's speech.
(Sample speech text)
Speaker.
M.Yu. Lermontov was born in Moscow in 1814, and at six months he was taken to Tarkhany - the estate of his grandmother - E.A. Arsenyeva.
I didn’t remember my mother: she died when Lermontov was in his third year. He was raised by his grandmother. Their father did not live with them. Grandmother did not love father. Modest retired captain Yu.P. Lermontov was an ignorant and poor man, no match for Elizaveta Alekseevna Arsenyeva, a wealthy woman who was proud of her family and connections in both capitals. Having become a widower, Lermontov's father left for his small estate near Tula. He rarely visited his son. So the future poet grew up as an orphan with a living father and the spoiled child of his grandmother, who doted on him.
His very first impressions were the lovely landscapes of the Penza province: oak groves, steep river banks, dust-free country roads... Here, among these Russian expanses, the first thirteen years of his life passed.
As a child, Lermontov was often sick. Three times his grandmother took him to the Caucasus, to Pyatigorsk (then it was called Goryachevodsk). We rode our horses across all of Russia. The journey lasted three to four weeks. Finally, the Caucasus Mountains rose on the edge of the state. Eagles soared in the sky, and the harsh edge of war was revealed. Movements were made only under the protection of armed detachments with guns.
From Pyatigorsk we went to Shelkovskoye, the estate of my grandmother’s sister.
On the Terek, Lermontov saw Circassians in shaggy hats and burkas, horse races, heard mountain legends and songs. Everything in this region was unusual and new: the morals, characters of the highlanders, Cossacks, soldiers. Life was full of worries and dangers. Later, the poet dedicated many works to this.
When M.Yu. Lermontov was fourteen years old, and his grandmother decided to send him to the Noble boarding school at Moscow University. They moved to Moscow.
In 1828, Lermontov entered the boarding school and soon became a recognized poet among the students.
In 1832 he moved with his grandmother to St. Petersburg to continue his education.
Teacher's word.
There were few poets in the world with such an intense and fascinating, tragic and fleeting fate! Lermontov’s poems are also amazing, recreating the image of the poet himself.
M.Yu. Lermontov was a younger contemporary of A.S. Pushkin and inherited the love of freedom of his poetry. One of the most famous poems was his “Sail”.
- Working with the text of the poem "Sail".
1. Expressive reading of a poem.
(The teacher himself or a well-prepared student).
2. Conversation based on the text of the poem.
Question: - What does M.Yu. represent? Lermontov in the poem "Sail"?
Answer: - A sail in the blue sea. The seascape in it is tangible and colorful.
Question: The poet depicts the romantic element - the sea. Also A.S. Pushkin
In his poem “The Sea” he called it a “free element”. Thus, we can talk about the sea as a symbol of freedom.
What is a symbol? (Read the meaning of the word on the board).
Answer: A symbol is something that serves as a conventional sign of some concept, phenomenon, idea (the dove is a symbol of peace).
Question: How is the sea shown in the poem “Sail”?
Answer: It is shown in motion. The landscape is constantly changing.
Question: How does changing the landscape help the reader understand the work?
Answer: Changing the landscape helps the reader understand the main idea of the poem, the change in mood.
Question: What picture appears before the reader’s gaze? What mood does this picture create?
Answer: Before us appears the distant sea covered in fog with a pale sail. For the author, the sight of a lonely sail gives rise to thoughtfulness. The poem contains his questions and reflections:
What is he looking for in a distant land?
What did he throw in his native land?
Question: How does the picture change next?
Answer: The reader now not only sees, but also hears the sea, its noise: “the wind whistles,” “the mast bends and creaks,” “the waves are playing.”
Question: How does your mood change?
Answer: Anxiety is growing. Anxiety is consonant with the mood of bitter confidence that happiness is impossible for a sail:
"Alas! He doesn’t seek happiness and doesn’t run from happiness!”
Question: Well, the sea is calm again (“a stream of lighter azure”).
How does the mood of thoughtfulness and anxiety change?
Answer: The previous mood is replaced by a firm conviction that the sail is rebellious.
Question: What is the mutiny sail looking for?
Answer: He is looking for storms.
Question: Why does the author’s sadness not disappear?
Answer: The author sympathizes with the desire of the sail, because the path of one who chooses the storm instead of peace is very difficult.
Question: Pay attention to the length of the poem. It only has 12 lines. But we are concerned about the seriousness of thought, the richness of feelings, sadness from the awareness of the impossibility of happiness, sympathy for rebellion. The image of a rebellious sail has become an immortal symbol of the thirst for action and struggle in Russian poetry. We have already become acquainted with landscape lyrics. This poem by A.S. Pushkin "Winter Morning". But the landscape there is different. How is it different?
Answer: Together with Pushkin, we admired the pictures of nature, sometimes joyful, sometimes sad. For Lermontov, the blue sea and white sail are not only poetic in nature, but also symbolic images.
Question: Let us remember the history of the creation of the poem “Sail”.
Answer: In 1832, Lermontov moved with his grandmother to St. Petersburg to continue his studies. Once he went for a walk, he went out to the coast of the Gulf of Finland and saw the expanse of the sea stretched out before his eyes. Then he writes the poem “Sail”.
Question: What feelings could he have experienced at that time?
Answer: It is difficult to answer this question precisely.
Question: Let's fantasize together, remember the impressions of the books we read, the films we watched, and look at the paintings of Aivazovsky.
Question: The proximity of the sea always worries a person. It is difficult not to admire the majestic spaciousness, variability and impermanence. What is it expressed in?
Answer: It is either serenely calm, with only a slight swell, or it foams and makes noise. Its color is also changeable. Near the sea you want to think about serious, intimate things.
Question: We talked a lot about the sea. Why? After all, the poem is called “Sail”.
Answer: The sea is a very important image in the poem. If it were not for the beautiful, boundless sea, it would be impossible to feel the loneliness of the sail, to repeat its rebelliousness.
- 1. Repeated reading of the poem “Sail”.
2. Continuation of the conversation based on the text of the poem.
Question: Name the means of expression that you are familiar with.
Answer: Epithet, metaphor, personification.
Task: Fill out the table with words - expressive means that draw a sail, sea, etc. (“in the fog of the blue sea”, “a stream of lighter azure”, “a lonely sail, a golden ray”)
Sail
Sea | Personifications |
Question: What feelings should bright colors evoke?
Answer: Feelings of joy.
Question: Find the first epithet referring to a sail?
Answer: The word is lonely.
Question: What feelings does this epithet evoke?
Answer: It evokes sadness, anxiety and regret, and makes the reader feel the loneliness of the poet himself.
Question: What do the first two lines of each stanza show us?
Answer: The first two lines of each stanza convey to us one or another picture of the changing sea.
Question: And the last ones?
Answer: And the last lines of each stanza convey mood and feelings. This is the voice of the poet himself, his thoughts about the sail.
Question: How often is the word “Sail” repeated in the poem?
Answer: Only once per poem in the first line. In other lines it is replaced by a pronoun (he is looking, he threw, he is not looking for happiness, etc.)
Question: Is it possible to talk about inanimate objects in this way? What means of expression does the author use? Fill in the third column of the table with examples.
Question: For what purpose does Lermontov write about the sail like this, and when we read the poem, we begin to treat it as a living creature?
Answer: The sail is like a proud, brave man; he does not run away from the storm, but seeks to meet it.
Question: In the last line the author calls the sail rebellious? What does the word "rebellious" mean? Let's select synonyms for this word. We read the note on the board.
Rebellious - anxious, restless, stormy.
Conclusions: A seemingly simple image of a seascape contains the poet’s very complex thought about life. The sight of a sail at sea caused the author to think about the fate of man. He saw the sail and thought about it, but at the same time remembering the same lonely ones, with a rebellious thought.

8. Romance by A. Varlamov based on poems by M. Yu. Lermontov “Sail”
GROUP OF MUSICIANS
-Many Russian composers turned to this poem. But the Russian composer Alexander Varlamov gave him a second birth. The romance “The Lonely Sail Whitens” was written to the words of Lermontov. In music, the composer very well conveyed the mood of the poem - impetuous impulse, thirst for happiness, readiness to fight for it. The accompaniment of the romance is written in the energetic rhythm of the bolero - a Spanish dance.
