The role of the episode "Visitors of Oblomov"
in the novel by I.A. Goncharov "Oblomov"

In "Oblomov" the power of pure narrative is revealed with a minimal element of dramatization of the action.

The deep thought of the novel is born from the twists of fate, the spiritual movements of the hero, the details of the depiction, it follows from the fullness of the multilateral objective image.

The character of the hero confronted the writer with the difficult problem of organizing the action and constructing the plot. How to show in action a person who is inactive? Goncharov used for this the structural principle found in the novel of the 1940s: a “sketchy”, episodic structure with chronological shifts of events. This is how “Hero of Our Time”, “Who is to blame?” are built. But there, with the help of this technique, different aspects of the hero’s nature were tested: the variety of his inner possibilities in Lermontov or the refraction of the general law of modern social life (“oppression”, distortion of the human personality) in different spheres of reality in Herzen. Goncharov found other possibilities in this structural principle and put it at the service of his goals.

Oblomov does not have a developing, consistent line of life. His existence is made up of "fragments". So at the very beginning of the novel, immediately after the description of the inseparable couple Oblomov - Zakhar, an episode of the arrival of visitors is given.

The episode is located at the very beginning of the novel. The reader still does not know anything about the hero, except for his extraordinary isolation: he lives within four walls, and so far, before the arrival of the guests, nothing yet speaks of him as a person with a "pigeon" heart.

In general, the episode plays an important role in the novel: it makes Oblomov a “living” hero, deprives him of the schematic nature inherent in Stoltz, about which the author only talks. Oblomov is shown inactive, but in action, i.e. in relations with the outside world. Involuntarily, visitors are compared with Ilya Ilyich, revealing his best qualities, while his laziness is already shown.

Three visitors to the house on Gorokhovaya - this is the whole society of St. Petersburg in miniature. The guests "prepare the ground" for Stolz, as if predetermining his spiritual imperfection in comparison with Oblomov, because Stolz is a member of this society, feels great in it, which gives him a kind of author's assessment as a person. On the other hand, Goncharov justifies the hero who is bored with light. For him, this is not just Onegin's melancholy, thanks to which he “has completely cooled down” to life, but boredom, which has deep reasons.

The first visitor is Volkov, "a young man of about twenty-five, radiant with health, with laughing cheeks, lips and eyes." There are many “brilliant” epithets in the description of the gentleman: “shiny”, “glossy”, “varnished”. There is a lot of humor in his dynamic portrait: “he took out the thinnest cambric handkerchief, inhaled the aromas of the East, then carelessly ran it over his face, over his glossy hat and fanned his patent leather boots.” How much irony in these descriptions! This young man, trying to be comme il faut, dandy, actually has semi-social manners. In general, this type seems to be taken from Gogol's "Dead Souls": a "thin" secular moth. Volkov has just left the tailor and grabs at Oblomov, who understands nothing about fashion. Oblomov is ironic, playing along with Volkov. This is especially noticeable when Volkov confesses his love for Lidinka:

Oh! - flashing, said Volkov, - say?

Speak!

Volkov speaks of his love even touchingly, but when it comes to Misha Goryunov, his speech sounds patronizing. "We must introduce him: he is timid, still a beginner." Volkov's life is scheduled not by minutes, but by lunches. He also invites Oblomov, but he is bored to be there, because "they talk about everything." Volkov, as an experienced waiter, offers Oblomov, as a capricious visitor, various circles where they talk either about art or about everything. Nothing worries Volkov, except for Lidinka, dinners and clothes.

After the visit, Oblomov asks: "Where is the person here? What is he crushed and crumbled into? ... Yes, in ten places in one day - unfortunate!" If Volkov thinks that Oblomov is a "sybarite", then, according to Ilya Ilyich, "he does not loom about, but lies right here, maintaining his human dignity and his peace."

The second visitor is Sudbinsky, "a gentleman in a dark green tailcoat with coat of arms buttons, clean-shaven, with dark sideburns that evenly border his face, with a troubled, but calmly conscious expression in his eyes, with a heavily worn face, with a pensive smile." The very epithet "shabby" in combination with the word face boldly proves Oblomov's idea of ​​"crushing" a person. This visitor stubbornly offers to go to the service. Here the reader learns something new about Ilya Ilyich: it turns out that Oblomov quit his service to start writing. This characterizes him as a creative person, able to understand all the charm of Casta Diva, as the reader will later find out, his favorite aria, predetermines his acquaintance with Olga, because Stolz does not understand music, does not feel it so subtly, although his mother taught him to play the piano as a child .

Sudbinsky "got stuck, stuck up to his ears, and blind, and deaf, and dumb for everything else in the world" (thinks Oblomov). And indeed, he speaks only about the service, about himself, boasts, but covers up his “doing nothing” with concern and stories about his employment. Just like Volkov, Sudbinsky is also in love, but with serious intentions: he marries in the fall. However, everything is explained simply: "we need money." Perhaps it is this problem that will prevent Oblomov from marrying Olga in the future, because for this it will be necessary to solve problems with the estate and many others. After the departure of Sudbinsky, Oblomov begins to take pride in the fact that he "has scope for his feelings and imagination," unlike Sudbinsky, which once again characterizes Oblomov as a creative person who is not enough just to lie on the couch. To some extent, these first two visits already show that if Oblomov is lying on the couch, it is not only from laziness, but also from the fact that there is nothing to do for a thinking, feeling person.

Oblomov's last visitor is "a very thin, black-haired gentleman, overgrown with sideburns, mustaches and a goatee. He was dressed with deliberate negligence." Already from this somewhat ironic portrait, one can determine that Penkin is a “creative personality”. In fact, he is mediocre (“He hears either Dante or Shakespeare” - a gross, ridiculous exaggeration) and is somewhat reminiscent of Kukshina (“Fathers and Sons”), who literally lives in the printed word. In a conversation with a writer, Oblomov "comes to life", suddenly jumps up from the sofa and delivers a monologue about humanism, philanthropy. All accumulated thoughts about a person spill out: "Give me a man, a man. Love him ... Reveal debauchery, dirt, but please, without pretensions to poetry!" In this, Oblomov is right, he adequately answers Penkin, who calls him "an eccentric." After the departure of the "poet" Oblomov argues as a creative person: after all, one cannot write all the time, at any time, by order. But this could become his profession!

Thus, the plot role of Oblomov's visitors is to show that it is impossible to live like this, to justify Oblomov, who is "carefree, like a newborn baby", "does not scatter, does not sell anything ...". According to the author, Oblomov, lying on the sofa, retains his human dignity, he simply has nothing else to do, there is nothing more worthy in the St. Petersburg world.

The role of secondary characters in the novel by I. I. Goncharov "Oblomov"

The novel "Oblomov" by I. A. Goncharov showed how the conditions of landlord life give rise to lack of will, apathy, and inactivity in the main character. The author himself defined the ideological orientation of his work as follows: “I tried to show in Oblomov how and why people in our country turn prematurely into ... jelly - climate, backwater environment, drowsy life and still private, individual for each circumstance.

In the first part of the work, there is practically no plot movement: the reader sees the main character lying on the sofa all day long. Some variety in the sleepy atmosphere of Oblomov's apartment is brought by Ilya Ilyich's guests, who replace each other in strict order. It was not by chance that the author introduced such characters as Volkov, Sudbinsky and Penkin into the novel. Their activities are familiar to Oblomov, and his reasoning about the fate of each of them characterizes the protagonist even more fully. We know that Ilya Ilyich began to serve as a collegiate secretary, went out into the world, was fond of poetry, but his state activity ended in his resignation, “he said goodbye to a crowd of friends even colder,” reading books also gradually got tired. As a result, “he lazily waved his hand at all the youthful hopes that he deceived or deceived ...” and plunged into the mental drawing up of a plan for arranging the estate, which he could not finish for several years now. The appearance of guests pushes the spatio-temporal framework of the novel and allows the author to imagine various areas of St. Petersburg.

Secular Petersburg is represented by Volkov. This is “a young man of about twenty-five, shining with health, with laughing cheeks, lips and eyes ... He was combed and dressed impeccably, dazzling with the freshness of his face, linen, gloves and tailcoat. On the waistcoat lay an elegant chain, with many tiny key rings. He is in demand in secular society, enjoys success with women - and in this he finds the joy of life. Oblomov does not see anything attractive for himself in such a way of life. "Ten places in one day - unhappy! .. And this is life! .. Where is a person here? What is he crushed and crumbled into? Of course, it’s not bad to look into the theater and fall in love with some Lydia ... she's pretty! Picking flowers in the countryside with her, riding around is good; but ten places in one day is unfortunate!" he concluded, rolling over on his back and rejoicing that he did not have such empty desires and thoughts, that he did not loom about, but lay right here, maintaining his human dignity and his peace.

The next hero, Sudbinsky, is a former co-worker of Ilya Ilyich. It symbolizes the bureaucratic Petersburg - clerical and departmental. “He was a gentleman in a dark green tailcoat with coat of arms buttons, clean-shaven, with dark sideburns that evenly bordered his face, with a distressed, but calmly conscious expression in his eyes, with a heavily worn face, with a thoughtful smile.” Sudbinsky has already achieved the position of head of the department, he is going to marry profitably. And all this against the backdrop of Oblomov, who cowardly resigned for fear that the boss would announce to him a reprimand for incorrectly sent documents. Oblomov even sent a medical certificate, which stated that “collegiate secretary Ilya Oblomov is obsessed with a thickening of the heart with an expansion of the left ventricle of it ... as well as chronic pain in the liver ... that threatens the patient’s health and life with a dangerous development, what seizures occur , as it should be assumed, from daily going to office ... ”Oblomov also has his own opinion about Sudbinsky. “I got stuck, dear friend, got stuck up to my ears ... And blind, and deaf, and dumb for everything else in the world. And he will come out into the people, in time he will turn things over and pick up officials ... We call this a career! And how little a person is needed here: his mind, will, feelings - why is this? Luxury! And he will live his life, and much, much will not move in it ... And meanwhile he works from twelve to five in the office, from eight to twelve at home - unhappy! ”He thought and experienced“ a feeling of peaceful joy that he nine to three, from eight to nine he can stay on his sofa, and was proud that he did not have to go with a report, write papers, that there was room for his feelings, imagination.

Petersburg literary is represented by the image of Penkin. This is “a very thin, black-haired gentleman, overgrown all over with sideburns, mustaches and goatee”, writing “about trade, about the emancipation of women, about the beautiful April days, ... about the newly invented composition against fires”, during his visit he managed to touch some strings in Oblomov's soul. Ilya Ilyich is so inflamed in a dispute with the state about the subject of the image in literature that he even gets up from the sofa. And the reader sees that the soul is still alive in him. “Depict a thief, a fallen woman, an inflated fool, and immediately forget a person. Where is the humanity? You want to write with your head alone!.. Do you think that a heart is not needed for thought? No, it is fertilized by love. Stretch out your hand to a fallen man to lift him up, or weep bitterly over him if he perishes, and do not mock. Love him, remember yourself in him, and treat him as if you were yourself—then I will read you and bow my head before you... They depict a thief, a fallen woman... are able to portray. What kind of art is here, what poetic colors did you find? Expose debauchery, dirt, only, please, without pretensions to poetry ... Give me a man! sofa". Ilya Ilyich sincerely sympathizes with the writer. “Writing at night,” thought Oblomov, “when is the time to sleep? And go, earn five thousand a year! It's bread! Yes, write everything, waste your thought, your soul on trifles, change your beliefs, trade your mind and imagination, rape your nature, worry, boil, sing, burn, not know peace and everything is moving somewhere ... And that’s all write, write everything like a wheel, like a machine: write tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, the holiday will come, summer will come - and he keeps writing? When to stop and rest? Unhappy!"

Of course, one can agree with Oblomov that night work, daily bustle, career advancement are tedious activities. But still, each of the heroes: Sudbinsky, and Volkov, and Penkin - found a job to their liking, have a goal in life. Although these goals are sometimes purely personal, and the heroes do not seek to “suffer” for the good of the Fatherland, but they act, grieve, rejoice - in a word, they live. And Oblomov, “as soon as he gets out of bed in the morning, after tea he immediately lies on the sofa, props his head with his hand and ponders, sparing his strength, until, finally, his head gets tired from hard work and when his conscience says: enough done today for the common good. And the worst thing is that Oblomov considers such a life normal and unhappy for those who cannot afford to live the way he does. But sometimes “clear conscious moments” still come when he becomes “sad and hurt ... for his underdevelopment, a stop in the growth of moral forces, for heaviness that interferes with everything.” He became frightened when a "live and clear idea of ​​human destiny and purpose arose in his soul, ... when ... various life questions woke up in his head." But despite the sometimes tormenting questions, Oblomov cannot and does not want to change anything.

It is difficult to overestimate the role of secondary characters in the novel, because they are one of the means of characterizing the main character. Volkov, Sudbinsky, Penkin are a kind of Oblomov's "twins": each of them represents one or another version of the possible fate of Ilya Ilyich.

At the end of the first part of the novel, the author raises the question: what will win in the main character - the vital principles or sleepy "Oblomovism"? After reading the novel, we see that the “Oblomovism” eventually wins and Oblomov dies quietly on the couch, without having done anything useful and necessary.

The role of secondary characters in the novel by I.A. Goncharova "Oblomov" Teacher of the Russian language and literature, GAPOU IOK named after. V. Talalikhina Lodygina A.V. Moscow, 201 4

What is the meaning of Oblomov's laziness? “Ilya Ilyich’s lying down was neither a necessity, like a sick person ... nor an accident, like someone who was tired, nor pleasure, like a lazy person: this was his normal state.” Oblomov voluntarily distanced himself from everyday worries, refused to interfere in the world around him. * In Russian culture, the refusal to be active is associated with piety, wisdom.

Oblomov's guests Volkov Goncharov A young man of about 25 entered, radiant with health, with laughing cheeks, lips and eyes. they say about the arts of Oblomov And you are not too lazy to hang around every day? That boredom must be infernal! That's what's boring, that everything about the Century is about the same thing - what a bore! Ten places in one day - miserable! And that's life! Where is the person here? How does it break up and fall apart!

Goncharov It was a gentleman in a dark green tailcoat with coat of arms buttons, clean-shaven, with dark whiskers evenly fringing his face, with a distressed, but calmly conscious expression in his eyes. So much to do, it's awful! I completely lost the habit of people ... hellish work! Oblomov Work from 8 to 12, from 12 to 5, but still at home - oh, oh! I'm stuck up to my ears. And blind, and deaf, and mute to everything else in the world. And he will come out into the people, in time he will turn things around and pick up ranks ... And how little a person is needed here: his mind, will, feelings - why is this? Luxury! And he will live his life, and much, much will not move in it ... Sudbinsky

Penkin Goncharov A very thin, black-haired gentleman, overgrown all over with whiskers, mustaches and a goatee. He was dressed with deliberate negligence Self-characterization ... How are you not reading this? This is our daily life. And most of all, I stand up for a real direction in literature ... a magnificent, one might say poem is being prepared: “The love of a bribe taker for a fallen woman” I heard excerpts - the author is great! One can hear Dante, then Shakespeare in it ... Oblomov Why do they write this: they only amuse themselves “Where is humanity, then? You want to write with one head, ”Oblomov almost hissed. Human, human give me! Yes, write everything, waste your thought, your soul on trifles, change your beliefs, sell your mind, imagination, rape your nature ... And write everything, write everything, like a wheel, like a machine .... When to stop and rest? Unhappy!

Conclusion: Volkov, Sudbinsky, Penkin are a possible projection of the fate of the protagonist of the novel. For Oblomov, these kinds of activity are unacceptable and alien. Oblomov spends his days in idleness, but he refuses empty, meaningless actions.
