Grinev's growing up story. Analysis of the work "The Captain's Daughter" (A

In the story "The Captain's Daughter" A. S. Pushkin touches on the issue of noble honor, which is very important for him and his compatriots. Showing the gradual formation of the personality of Pyotr Grinev, the protagonist of the work, the author outlines the Russian national character, which is characterized by such qualities as kindness, nobility, honesty, loyalty to the given word and the sovereign. Only after going through difficult life tests, the young nobleman becomes what we see him in the finale.

Life in the father's house

The text of the story is a memoir written on behalf of the protagonist, which gives the events described more authenticity: no one can tell about a person better than himself.

Petrusha received a traditional upbringing for noble children. The good uncle Savelyich was assigned to him, who accompanied the young man even after his departure for the service. He was taught by the French hairdresser Beaupre, who could not give a thorough education. The boy lived undersized, carefree and without thinking about the future.

Even before the birth, the father recorded his son in But when Pyotr Grinev reached the age of sixteen, he decided to send him not to St. Petersburg, but to Orenburg, under the supervision of an old acquaintance. Thus, the further fate of the young nobleman was sealed.

Entry into independent life

The main parting word given by the father, seeing off his son: "Take care of ... honor from a young age." Peter will follow this principle throughout his life. In the meantime, he looks more like a spoiled barchon. For the first time he gets drunk and loses a hundred rubles to the unfamiliar Zurin, then he demands from Savelych to repay the debt without fail. He insists on an urgent departure to where he was assigned in Orenburg, and gets into a strong snowstorm. But the formation of the personality of Peter Grinev is already beginning. He suffers, realizing his guilt before the faithful uncle, and asks his forgiveness - the ability to admit his mistakes. Gives the leader, who helped them get out of the snowstorm, a sheepskin coat - gratitude for the help provided.

love test

In the Belogorsk fortress, life brings Pyotr Grinev together with a glorious family and the cowardly Shvabrin. The actions of the latter to a greater extent set off the noble features of the protagonist. Both fall in love with Masha Mironova, but if Shvabrin sinks to meanness, having been refused, Grinev is ready to defend the honor of his beloved girl at the cost of his own life. This happens in the case of a duel, when the hero challenges a more experienced opponent to a duel, who insulted Masha. And also at the moment when the Pugachevites enter the fortress.

Shvabrin not only goes over to their side, but also tricks the defenseless girl into being locked up, and then announces that she is the daughter of the executed commandant. Quite different in the current situation is the characterization of Peter Grinev. He has to make a difficult choice between the duty of an officer, which obliges him to go to the unit, and the desire to protect his beloved. While the hero is sure that nothing threatens Masha, he goes to Orenburg, but at her first call, without receiving support and understanding from the command, he returns to the fortress. The hero will also remain silent at the trial, when the accusation of treason on the denunciation of the same Shvabrin can cost him his life. After all, to tell for what purpose he went to the fortress to Pugachev meant to involve the daughter of the commandant in an unpleasant story. And only Masha's meeting with the Empress will help restore justice and justify the hero.

Thus, the next stage, when the formation of the personality of Peter Grinev, is his love, sincere and disinterested. She turned yesterday's mischievous into the ability to take responsibility for another person.

Acquaintance with Pugachev

During the capture of the Belogorsk fortress, Grinev shows strength of character, loyalty to the oath and the empress, courage. Of course, a certain role in the fact that he was not executed along with the others was played by a hare sheepskin coat, presented by Peter to the counselor on the way to the fortress. But the young officer refused to kiss the hand of the impostor and to swear allegiance to him. It was this moral stamina and willingness to accept death for their convictions that determined Pugachev's attitude towards Grinev. And also the ability to always tell the truth, sincerity in everything and a feeling of complete inner freedom. This may be the characterization of Pyotr Grinev in the chapters that describe his meetings with the impostor. Indeed, the latter invited far from everyone to his table, let him go to all four sides after refusing to go to his service, gave a blessing for marriage with the daughter of the commandant of a military fortress.

The image of Peter Grinev in the story "The Captain's Daughter": conclusions

Thus, in the course of the events described, the character of the protagonist undergoes changes. And there are several important points in this process. Firstly, the reasonable decision of the father, who sent his son not to Petersburg, where an idle life and amusements awaited him, but to a remote fortress, which in fact became a place where he pulled the strap and sniffed gunpowder. Secondly, the era itself and an important historical event - the uprising under the leadership of Pugachev. Only in difficult life situations, as a rule, true people appear. In this case, the carefree boy turned into a real man.

Defining the ideological concept of A. Pushkin, it can be noted that the gradual formation of the personality of Pyotr Grinev should have revealed in the hero those features that every Russian nobleman should possess. And the main ones are “two wonderful qualities”: kindness and nobility. It is them that Peter Grinev would like to see in his descendants. This wish of the author of the memoirs, which completed the draft version of the story, was excluded during the last edition of The Captain's Daughter.

The image of Pyotr Grinev occupies a special place in Pushkin's novel. This is not only the main character, but also the "author" of the notes, the narrator. It seems to combine two images in it: the image of a young officer, revealed in the history of life, in actions, and the image of an old landowner, a retired officer, already wiser by worldly experience, now at his leisure recalling and telling the story of his youth.

That is why the image of Grinev is rather complicated. The novel has a lot of action and little thought. The psychology of the hero is transmitted through actions.

Petrusha, as Pushkin calls his hero at the beginning of the story, goes through the path of spiritual maturation and by the end becomes Pyotr Grinev. He experiences all the hardships of the Pugachev uprising, finds his love and accepts the favor of Catherine II herself. How did the evolution of the main character's image take place?

At the beginning of the story, we learn that Grinev is the son of a landowner who received a noble upbringing according to the custom of that time. His father, who viewed military service as the duty of a nobleman, sends a seventeen-year-old boy not to the guards, but to the army, so that he “pulls the strap”, becomes a disciplined soldier. Saying goodbye to Peter, the old man gave him instructions: “Serve faithfully to whom you swear allegiance; do not ask for service, do not dissuade from service, and remember the proverb: take care of the dress again, and honor from youth.

The second stage in the formation of the character of the hero begins from the moment of departure from his home. Grinev's independent life is the path of losing many illusions, prejudices, as well as enriching his inner world. But still, before his arrival in the Belogorodsk fortress, the main character can be safely called Petrusha.

And so, the upbringing of life continues. Grinev in the Belogorodskaya fortress. Instead of formidable, impregnable bastions, there is a village surrounded by a log fence, with thatched huts. Instead of a strict, angry boss, whom the hero imagined, there is a commandant who went out for training in a cap and a Chinese robe. Instead of a brave army - disabled people.

Life in the Belogorodskaya fortress reveals to the young man the previously unnoticed beauty of simple, kind people and gives rise to communication with them. There was no other society in the fortress, Grinev did not want another. Conversations with nice simple people, literature, love experiences - all this gave him real pleasure. He did not think about serious social life problems. But the love for Masha radically changes the hero, for the sake of which he even fights with swords with Shvabrin. Let's not forget that before this Grinev never quarreled with anyone and did not start fights. And during a quarrel with Shvabrin, he does not hesitate to challenge his beloved who insulted him to a duel. This speaks of the inner strong will of the hero, his ability to protect his love, and not about the ardor of youth.

The next stage in the formation of the hero is his determination to marry his beloved. And the letter to the parents is a direct confirmation of this. Here Peter acts as a fully mature person who can, with the help of words, convince others that he is right. And even the father's refusal to bless the marriage did not completely shake the hero's faith and conviction in his love.

It should also be noted that each meeting of our hero with the head of the insurgent people, Pugachev, is significant. It is no coincidence that Pushkin uses in his novel the reception of a prophetic dream, which Grinev sees on the way to the inn, falling asleep in a snowstorm. In this dream, Pugachev appears as Grinev's father.

The first meeting of the hero with Pugachev showed the main character as a still very young barchuk, but already with a clear understanding that good is paid for good. Grinev's gift to the peasant who saw them off - a hare sheepskin coat - would later save his life.

After the second meeting with Yemelyan in the Belogorsk fortress, when the leader of the rebels saved his life, Grinev becomes more decisive and courageous. The hero is growing up fast.

For the sake of his love, he asks the general to give him fifty soldiers and permission to release the captured fortress. Having been refused, the young man does not fall into despair, as before, but resolutely goes to Pugachev's lair. Peter had the courage to appear again before the leader of the uprising. Captured, but not broken, Grinev, without lies and hypocrisy, tells Emelyan everything as it is, about Masha Mironova and Shvabrin. This desperate act saved the girl's life.

The image of Grinev is given in development. The features of his character are revealed to readers gradually. His behavior is psychologically motivated. Despite the mistakes of the hero of the novel, before us, the readers, the image of an honest, kind, courageous person grows. He is capable of great feeling, faithful in love and, ultimately, his duty. And at the same time, Grinev is frivolous in his youth, limited in his views and understanding of the true purpose of those events in which he became a participant.

Pyotr Andreevich Grinev is the protagonist of Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin's story "The Captain's Daughter".

While reading the book, we are faced with a series of events that vividly characterize the personality of Pyotr Grinev, allowing us to see the formation and formation of his inner world, views and foundations.

Grinev's character was influenced by his mother's upbringing, he adopted her kindness, sensitivity and even some gentleness. Little Petrusha lived with his father on the estate, where he received the usual, for that time, home education. He was trained first by the stirrup Savelich, and then by the French teacher Beaupre. However, the concepts of justice, honor and devotion, he acquired, for the most part, not from his educators, but in a noisy company of his friends - yard boys.

Peter developed a sense of reverence and respect for his parents. Therefore, when his father decided to send him to serve in Orenburg, and not in the long-desired Semenovsky regiment, Pyotr Grinev obediently fulfilled his will.

Thus, young Pyotr Andreevich found himself in the Belogorsk fortress, where instead of the full brilliance of Petersburg life, village silence awaited him behind a log fence. But Grinev did not have to be upset for long. Unexpectedly for himself, he finds here a simple charm in communicating with kind, unpretentious people living in the fortress. It is in conversations with them that the best qualities of Pyotr Grinev are finally strengthened and formed.

To such a young and open person as Grinev, a high feeling could not but come. Pyotr Andreevich fell in love with Masha Mironova, the lovely daughter of the commandant of the fortress. The subsequent duel with Shvabrin, who insulted Masha, ends with Grinev's injury and a ban on the marriage of lovers from the hero's father.

Lyrical events in the life of Peter Andreevich are interrupted by the uprising of Emelyan Pugachev. At this time, such qualities of Pyotr Grinev as honesty, straightforwardness and nobility, which used to seem like an unnecessary burden, now help to save the life of not only himself, but also Masha. Grinev's courage and courage make an indelible impression on Pugachev, causing sincere, genuine respect.

Everything that Grinev experienced made him think more and more about the meaning of human life, allowed him to grow up. Throughout the story, we see the continuous development and growth of Peter Grinev. From a frivolous boy, Grinev imperceptibly grows into a self-affirming, looking for the meaning of existence, a young man, and, in the end, a brave, determined and mature man appears before us.

I think that the heightened sense of justice that the author put into the image of his hero seems so sincere only because the nobility and defense of honor were very important for Pushkin himself. As well as his character, Alexander Sergeevich, subsequently defended the honor of his wife, challenging the offender to a duel. Therefore, the straightforwardness and inner dignity of Grinev does not seem to be a literary exaggeration. This is the quality of a real, adult person.

Pyotr Andreevich Grinev is the protagonist of the novel by Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin "The Captain's Daughter".

Peter lived on his father's estate and received the usual home education. He was brought up first by the stirrup Savelyich, and then by the Frenchman Beaupre, and in his free time, Peter spent with the yard boys.

Peter honored his parents and respected their wishes. When his father decided to send him to serve in Orenburg, Peter did not dare to disobey, although he really wanted to serve in St. Petersburg. Before the dear father ordered Peter to serve faithfully and remember the proverb: "take care of the dress again, and honor from a young age." Grinev remembered well the words of his father and faithfully served the empress.

Pyotr Grinev is very noble and honest. Having lost a hundred rubles to Zurin, he forces Savelich to repay the debt, considering it a debt of honor. And when Shvabrin insulted Masha, Peter did not hesitate to challenge him to a duel.

Grinev showed himself to be a brave, courageous and courageous person. When talking with Emelyan Pugachev, he did not lie to him, but directly said that he would not go over to his side, and if ordered, he would fight against Emelyan's gang. Peter was not afraid to go to save Masha from Shvabrin, although he knew that he could be caught and killed. He risked his life making his way into the fortress, showed courage and ingenuity.

Grinev's kindness and generosity were very useful to him, because Pugachev remembered the gift and that was the only reason he pardoned him.

In the story, Pyotr Grinev is shown in development: first, a frivolous boy, then a self-affirming young man, and finally, an adult and determined man.

Pyotr Grinev is the main character of the story. He is 17 years old, he is a Russian nobleman who has just entered the military service. One of the main qualities of Grinev is sincerity. He is sincere with the characters of the novel and with the readers. Telling his own life, he did not seek to embellish it. On the eve of the duel with Shvabrin, he is excited and does not hide it: “I confess that I did not have that composure, which almost always boast of those who were in my position.” He also directly and simply speaks of his condition before the conversation with Pugachev on the day he captured the Belogorsk fortress: “The reader can easily imagine that I was not completely cold-blooded.” Grinev does not hide his negative actions either (an incident in a tavern, during a snowstorm, in a conversation with the Orenburg general). Gross mistakes are atoned for by his remorse (the case of Savelch).
Grinev's Duma has not yet hardened in military service, he kept some of them until the end of his life. He shuddered at the sight of the mutilated Bashkir, captured while distributing Pugachev's leaflets. The singing of the Pugachevtsy makes a strong impression on him: “It is impossible to tell what effect this simple song about the gallows, sung by people doomed to the gallows, had on me. Their formidable faces, slender voices, the dull expression that they gave to words that were already expressive - everything shook me with some kind of poetic horror.
Grinev was not a coward. He accepts the challenge to a duel without hesitation. He is one of the few defending the Belogorsk fortress, when, despite the command of the commandant, "the timid garrison does not move." He returns for the straggler Savelich.
These actions also characterize Grinev as a person capable of love. Grinev is not vindictive, he sincerely puts up with Shvabrin. He does not tend to be malicious. Leaving the Belogorsk fortress, with Masha released on the orders of Pugachev, he sees Shvabrin and turns away, not wanting to "triumph over the humiliated enemy."
A distinctive feature of Grinev is the habit of paying good for good with the ability to be grateful. He gives Pugachev his sheepskin coat, thanks for saving Masha.

Pyotr Grinev is the main character in A. S. Pushkin's story "The Captain's Daughter". The reader goes through the entire life path of the protagonist, the formation of his personality, reveals his attitude to the ongoing events, of which he is a participant.

The kindness of the mother and the simplicity of the life of the Grinev family developed softness and even sensitivity in Petrusha. He is eager to go to the Semyonovsky regiment, where he is assigned from birth, but his dreams of life in St. Petersburg are not destined to come true - his father decides to send his son to Orenburg.

And here is Grinev in the Belogorsk fortress. Instead of formidable, impregnable bastions, there is a village surrounded by a log fence, with thatched huts. Instead of a strict, angry boss, there is a commandant who came out for training in a cap and a dressing gown; Instead of a brave army, there are elderly invalids. Instead of a deadly weapon - an old cannon clogged with debris. Life in the Belogorsk fortress reveals to the young man the beauty of the life of simple kind people, gives rise to the joy of communicating with them. “There was no other society in the fortress; but I didn’t want anything else, ”recalls Grinev, the author of the notes. Not military service, not reviews and parades attract a young officer, but conversations with nice, simple people, literature studies, love experiences. It is here, in the “God-saved fortress”, in the atmosphere of a patriarchal life, that the best inclinations of Pyotr Grinev grow stronger. The young man fell in love with the daughter of the commandant of the fortress Masha Mironova. Faith in her feelings, sincerity and honesty caused a duel between Grinev and Shvabrin: Shvabrin dared to laugh at the feelings of Masha and Peter. The duel ended unsuccessfully for the main character. During the recovery, Masha looked after Peter and this served to bring the two young people closer. However, their desire to get married was opposed by Grinev's father, who was angry with his son's duel and did not give his blessing for the marriage.

The quiet and measured life of the inhabitants of the distant fortress was interrupted by the Pugachev uprising. Participation in hostilities shook Peter Grinev, made him think about the meaning of human existence. An honest, decent, noble man turned out to be the son of a retired major, who was not afraid of the formidable appearance of the leader of the "gang of bandits and rebels", dared to stand up for his beloved girl, who became an orphan one day. Hatred and disgust for cruelty and inhumanity, Grinev's humanity and kindness allowed him not only to save his life and the life of Masha Mironova, but also to earn the respect of Emelyan Pugachev - the leader of the uprising, the rebel, the enemy.

Honesty, straightforwardness, loyalty to the oath, a sense of duty - these are the character traits that Peter Grinev acquired while serving in the Belogorsk fortress.

The story "The Captain's Daughter" is a unique and interesting work by A. S. Pushkin, in which the author describes pure and sincere love that suddenly flared up and warms the heart throughout the story.

Pyotr Grinev is the main character of the work. This is an honest, noble and kind person who was raised by his father.

Andrei Petrovich Grinev is a former military man with an open heart and a sincere soul. He does not want to be dependent on others and "beg for" ranks. That is why his service ended quickly. He devoted himself entirely to raising his son and raised a noble man

Adult Petya dreamed of a bright and interesting service in St. Petersburg, but a strict father chose a worthy place for him and sent him to serve near Orenburg. At parting, Andrei Petrovich said: "Take care of the dress again, and honor from a young age." Peter carried these cherished words throughout his life.

In Orenburg, young Grinev met his true love - a modest and shy girl Masha Mironova. The main character of the story lived in the family of the commandant, a brave and correct man, a loyal subject of Empress Catherine II.

The character of the father and the nobility of the nobleman with age are manifested in Pyotr Andreevich more and more. I was especially impressed by the duel between Grinev and Shvabrin, an evil and mean coeval of Peter. Shvabrin publicly insulted Masha, and Grinev defended the honor of the girl. As a result, Peter was wounded, and Shvabrin emerged victorious, but what! This unfortunate coward struck from behind.

In the story "The Captain's Daughter" the image of Pyotr Grinev is one of the most vivid and memorable. This guy is not distinguished by a dodgy mind and heroic strength, but he is open, sincere and naive. It is these qualities that make readers especially sympathetic. He does not hypocrite and does not pretend, even being on the verge of death. This is the expression of strength of character and true nobility.

Narration in "The Captain's Daughter" by Pyotr Andreyevich Grinev, who talks about his youth, plunged into the cycle of historical events. Grinev appears in the novel, therefore, both as a narrator and as one of the main characters of the events described.

Petr Andreevich Grinev is a typical representative of the provincial Russian nobility of the second half of the 18th century. He was born and raised on the estate of his father, a landowner in the Simbirsk province. His childhood passed as it did for most of the poor provincial nobles of that time. From the age of five, he was given into the hands of a serf uncle Savelich. Having overcome the letter in the twelfth year under the guidance of his uncle, Grinev comes under the supervision of Monsieur Beaupre, a French tutor, discharged from Moscow "along with a year's supply of wine and Provencal oil" and who turned out to be a bitter drunkard.

Describing his student years with good-natured humor, Grinev says: "I lived underage, chasing pigeons and playing leapfrog with yard boys." It would be a mistake, however, to think that we have before us a minor like Mitrofanushka from Fonvizin's comedy. Grinev grew up as an intelligent and inquisitive teenager and subsequently, having entered the service, writes poetry, reads French books and tries his hand even in translations.

A decisive influence on Grinev's spiritual warehouse had a healthy atmosphere of family life, simple and modest. Grinev's father, a retired prime minister who had gone through a harsh school of life, was a man of firm and honest views. Seeing off his son to the army, he gives such instructions: “Serve faithfully to whom you swear allegiance; do not ask for service, do not refuse service; do not chase after the caress of the boss; take care of the dress again, and honor from a young age. Grinev inherited a sense of honor and a sense of duty from his father.
The first life steps of young Grinev reveal his youthful frivolity and inexperience. But the young man proved with his life that he had learned the basic rule of his father's morality: "take care of honor from a young age." For two years, Grinev experiences many events: acquaintance with Pugachev, love for Marya Ivanovna, duel with Shvabrin, illness; he almost dies when the fortress is taken by Pugachev's troops, etc. Before our eyes, the character of the young man develops and grows stronger, and Grinev turns into a mature young man. A sense of honor and courage save him in life's adversities. With intrepid courage, he looks into the eyes of death when Pugachev orders him to be hanged. All the positive aspects of his character are revealed: simplicity and not depravity of nature, kindness, honesty, fidelity in love, etc. These properties of nature captivate Marya Ivanovna and arouse sympathy from Pugachev. Grinev comes out of life's trials with honor.

Grinev is not a hero in the usual sense of the word. This is an ordinary person, an average nobleman. This is a typical representative of those army officers who, in the words of the historian V. O. Klyuchevsky, “made our military history of the 18th century.” Pushkin does not idealize him, does not put him in beautiful poses. Grinev remains a modest ordinary person, retaining all the features of a realistic image.

Initially, Pushkin wanted to write a novel dedicated only to the Pugachev movement, but the censorship would hardly have let him through. Therefore, the main storyline of the story is the service of a young nobleman for the good of the fatherland and his love for the daughter of the captain of the Belogorod fortress. In parallel, another topic of Pugachevism that interested the author is given. The second topic, of course, Pushkin devotes much less pages, but enough to reveal the essence of the peasant revolt and acquaint the reader with the leader of the peasants, Emelyan Pugachev. In order for his image to be more reliable, the author needed a hero who personally knew Pugachev and would subsequently speak out about what he saw. Such a hero was Pyotr Grinev, a nobleman, an honest, noble young man. A nobleman was needed, and precisely a noble one, in order to make what he told look plausible and be believed.

The childhood of Petrusha Grinev was no different from the childhood of other children of the local nobles. Through the mouth of the hero himself, Pushkin ironically speaks of the customs of the old local nobility: “Mother was still my belly, as I was already enrolled in the Semenovsky regiment as a sergeant ... If, more than any expectation, mother gave birth to a daughter, then the priest would have announced where it should be about the death of the sergeant who did not appear, and that would be the end of the matter."

The author also makes fun of Pyotr Grinev's studies: at the age of five, Savelich was assigned to the boy as an uncle - a courtyard man, to whom such trust was given "for sober behavior." Thanks to Savelich, Petrusha learned to read and write by the age of twelve and "could very sensibly judge the properties of a greyhound dog." The next step in the training was the Frenchman Monsieur Beaupre, who was supposed to teach the boy "all sciences," discharged from Moscow "together with a year's supply of wine and Provence oil." However, due to the fact that the Frenchman was very fond of wine and the fair sex, Petrusha was left to his own devices. When the son reaches the age of seventeen, the father, filled with a sense of duty, sends Peter to serve for the good of the motherland.

Descriptions of the independent life of Pyotr Grinev are already devoid of irony. From the young man left to himself and to the simple Russian peasant Savelich, a noble nobleman turned out. Having lost at cards due to inexperience, Peter never succumbed to Savelich's persuasion to fall at the feet of the winner with a request to forgive the debt. He is guided by honor: lost - give it back. The young man understands that he must be responsible for his actions.

The meeting with the “counselor” reveals in Pyotr Grinev such a purely Russian quality as generosity. Finding themselves in the steppe during a blizzard, Grinev and Savelich accidentally stumbled upon a man who knew the way. Then, already at the inn, Pyotr Grinev really wanted to thank this stranger. And he offered him his hare coat, which, according to Savelich, cost a lot of money. At first glance, Grinev's act is a manifestation of youthful carelessness, but in fact it is a manifestation of the nobility of the soul, compassion for man.

Arriving at the service in the Belogorodsk fortress, Pyotr Grinev fell in love with the daughter of the captain of the fortress, Masha Mironova. Nobility and honor do not allow him to ignore the slander directed at his beloved by another nobleman, Alexei Shvabrin. The result of this is a duel that could cost Peter Grinev his life.

It is not in vain that the author introduces into the story the clever, well-read and at the same time vile and dishonorable Shvabrin, and also a nobleman. Comparing two young officers, Pushkin argues that high morality is not the lot of people of a separate class, and even more so, it has nothing to do with education: nobles can be scoundrels, and nobility can be a hallmark of a simple person, Pugachev for example.

The possibility of execution did not force the Pushkin hero to change the ideals of morality. He does not go into the enemy camp to save his life, he learned all too well.

the words spoken by the father as parting words: "Take care of the dress again, and honor from a young age." Honest Grinev and in a conversation with Pugachev: “I am a natural nobleman; I swore allegiance to the empress: I can’t serve you.” Moreover, to Pugachev’s question whether Grinev could make a promise not to go against him if ordered, the young man answered with the same sincerity and directness: “How can I promise you this ... You know, it’s not my will: they tell me to go against you - I’ll go , nothing to do. You are now the boss yourself; you yourself demand obedience from your own. What will it be like if I refuse the service when my service is needed?

Grinev's sincerity struck Pugachev. Imbued with respect for the young man, he lets him go. Pugachev's conversation with Grinev is very important. On the one hand, he shows the nobility of a nobleman, on the other hand, the same quality of his opponent: only an equal can appreciate another person.

All the same nobility, as well as love and tender affection, do not allow Grinev to name Masha Mironova at the trial, and this could explain a lot in the story with Pugachev, save him from imprisonment.

The events in the story are presented on behalf of Grinev, who, many years later, talks about two years of his life, about a meeting with Pugachev. The narrator strives to tell everything without exaggeration, objectively. Pugachev in his eyes does not look like a real beast. And we believe him, we cannot but believe: we know this man too well - noble, honest, just. And we think: who is this Pugachev really and what is it - Pugachevism?

Can a person live without mistakes? I'll try to figure it out, but what is the error? It seems to me that a mistake is an unintentional deviation of a person from the right actions and deeds. The probability that a person will be able to live life without making a single mistake is negligible, so it seems to me that without mistakes a person simply cannot exist, because in our world everything is so complicated that a person lives gaining experience not only from his mistakes, but also from strangers. No wonder they say: "We learn from mistakes."

Therefore, I think that mistakes are permissible in a person's life, the main thing is that the consequences of these mistakes can be eliminated.

Why do we make mistakes so often? It seems to me that all the same out of ignorance. But having made a mistake once, we must learn from it so that we do not make it again. It is not for nothing that the proverb says: "He who does not repent of his mistakes, is more mistaken."

So, the protagonist of Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin's story "The Captain's Daughter" Pyotr Grinev, being a young guy, made a mistake. When Petrusha was sixteen years old, his father decided to send his son to serve in the Belgorod fortress. The path was not short, so his father sent Savelich with him, a man with whom the boy literally grew up. When Savelich left the boy alone, Petrusha's inexperience played a role. The boy, who had been under strict control all his life, felt free and did not refuse to drink with a man whom he met while wandering around the rooms. After some time, Petrusha agreed to play billiards, where he lost a hundred rubles. Not knowing the measure, the young man got so drunk that he could hardly stand on his feet, offended Savelich, and in the morning he felt bad. With his act, the boy framed Savelich in front of his parents and reproached himself for this for a long time. Petrusha Grinev realized his mistake and did not make it again.

However, there are mistakes. the price of which may be too high. Any ill-conceived act, any incorrectly spoken word can lead to tragedy.

In Mikhail Afanasyevich Bulgakov's novel The Master and Margarita, the procurator Pontius Pilate made such an irreparable mistake when he killed the philosopher Yeshua Ha-Notsri. Yeshua preached to people the evil of power and was arrested for this. The procurator is examining Yeshua's case. After talking with the philosopher, Pilate believes that he is innocent, but still sentences him to death because he hopes that the local authorities will pardon the philosopher in honor of the Easter holiday. However, the local authorities refuse to pardon Yeshua. Instead, they release another criminal. Pontius Pilate could release the wanderer, but he does not do that, for he is afraid of losing his position, he is afraid of seeming frivolous. And for his crime, the procurator is punished with immortality. Pontius Pilate realized his mistake, but he can't change anything.

Summing up, I want to say that a person can still make mistakes, but these mistakes can be different. Some help to gain experience, but there are those that harm people. Therefore, in order not to make mistakes, you need to think several times before doing anything.
