    Teacher's opening speech. Today we have to meet the playwright Alexander Nikolaevich Ostrovsky and his play, written in early period his work, “Poverty is not a vice.” Write down the topic of the lesson in your notebook: “A. N. Ostrovsky. "Poverty is not a vice." In high school, you will study his famous play "The Thunderstorm." But now this name is new to us, so a few words about the playwright himself.

(Sl. 2) Alexander Nikolaevich Ostrovsky was born in 1823 in Moscow: in Zamoskvorechye, in an old merchant and bureaucratic district. The father of the future playwright, an educated and skilled judicial official, and then a well-known lawyer in Moscow commercial circles; rising through the ranks, he received the rights of a hereditary nobleman and became a landowner; It’s clear that he wanted to let his son work in the legal field as well.(Sl. 3 )Alexander Ostrovsky received a good home education- from childhood he was addicted to literature, spoke German and French languages, knew Latin well, willingly studied music. He graduated from high school with honors and in 1840, without an exam, was admitted to the law faculty of Moscow University. But Ostrovsky did not like the career of a lawyer; he was irresistibly attracted to art. He tried not to miss a single performance: he read and argued a lot about literature, and fell passionately in love with music. At the same time, he tried to write poetry and stories.

(Sl. 4) Having lost interest in studying at the university, Ostrovsky left his studies. For several years, at the insistence of his father, he served as a minor official in court. Here the future playwright has seen enough human comedies and tragedies. Having become completely disillusioned with his judicial activities, Ostrovsky dreams of becoming a writer. In 1867, he and his brother bought the Shchelykovo estate from their stepmother, in which the great Russian playwright lived from spring to late autumn for many years and wrote his wonderful plays: “Snow Maiden”, “Dowry”, “Guilty Without Guilt”, etc.

P. Unfortunately, in school curriculum few dramatic works are represented, and yet each playwright is unique, each has his own style of writing, his own merits, but, nevertheless, only A. N. Ostrovsky is called in the world of art and literature “the father of the Russian theater.”

In this regard, the question arises... Which one? (How did he deserve this title? What are the features of his work?) This is what we have to find out today.

Let's skip 2-3 lines after the specified lesson topic and add:

Features of the dramaturgy of A. N. Ostrovsky (we will note and write down as the lesson progresses, be careful).

What did Ostrovsky write about in his works?

Presentation by a trained student.

Rich people, but just yesterday they lived in the old fashioned way and the new demands that the powerful makes upon them modern life, where the world is ruled by power and money - this is the basis of the comedic conflicts of the young Ostrovsky, and even those where the funny is intertwined with the sad: after all, the quirks of those in power are not only funny, but also dangerous for the poor: the dependent and the oppressed. (Sl. 5 ) His all-Russian fame began with a comedy - “Our people - we will be numbered!” (or “Bankrupt” 1849), published in the magazine “Moskvityanin”, whose young employees gravitated towards Slavophilism, preaching the ideas national identity, preserved among the peasantry and patriarchal merchants. The play was a huge success. However, its production was banned by order of Tsar Nicholas 1 himself. The censorship ban lasted eleven years. (Sl.6 - the student reads). (Sl. 7) Already in the comedy “Our People - We Will Be Numbered!” The main features of Ostrovsky’s dramaturgy emerged:the ability to show important all-Russian problems through family and everyday conflict, to create bright and recognizable characters. His plays sound juicy, lively folk speech. Ostrovsky wanted to show positive heroes capable of resisting immorality and cruelty modern relations. It is these kind of sympathetic heroes who appear in the comedy “Don’t Get in Your Own Sleigh” (1853) (the first of Ostrovsky’s plays to be performed on stage) and “Poverty is not a vice” (1954). original title"God opposes the proud." In subsequent periods of Ostrovsky’s work, more than 50 original plays appeared, making up a whole folk theater, where the reader saw the history of all classes of Russia.

In addition to writing, A. N. Ostrovsky successfully studied social activities. He organized the Moscow artistic circle, the Society of Russians dramatic writers and composers. But his main merit is the creation of a huge dramatic repertoire for the Russian theater. (Sl. 8)

Peculiarities :

    Showing important all-Russian problems through family and everyday conflict;

    Bright, recognizable characters;

    Analysis of the conflict of the play.

(Sl. 9) Today we begin our acquaintance with Ostrovsky’s comedy “Poverty is not a vice.”

Name. So, poverty is not a vice.

How do you understand this saying?

What genre does this expression belong to?

In addition to this title, among Ostrovsky’s plays there are also the following: Our own people - we’ll be numbered!, Every wise man has enough simplicity, Don’t sit on someone else’s sleigh, There’s a hangover at someone else’s feast, An old friend is better than two new ones, Your own dogs are squabbling - don’t bother someone else’s, It’s not all Maslenitsa for the cat, There wasn’t a penny, but suddenly it’s Altyn, Guilty without guilt.

From fifty drama works. O. A dozen plays are named proverbs. You won't find anything like this from any other writer.

Peculiarity :

    Originality of names.

Working with slide 9.

Reading the slide text.

You have read the play. You know that any dramatic work is built on conflict.

Conflict- this is a confrontation, a clash on which the development of the plot in a work of art is built.

Anya, remind me what the basis of conflicts is in the plays of the young Ostrovsky.

Find antonymous concepts in this sentence. (patriarchal (ancient) way of life - innovations).

What do you think Ostrovsky sees as the ideals of folk morality? (the strength of family foundations, the trust of children in their parents, the inviolability of the customs that reign in this merchant family, the integrity and clarity of their worldview).

What is this world up against? (innovations, modern, so-called “civilization”).

Writing in a notebook (missing lines):

Comedy Conflict: Patriarchal world opposes popular morality modern world power and money.

So, we have identified a nationwide problem, which is shown through family and everyday conflict. Who is participating in it?

(Sk. 10 ). Poster . Reading first and last names characters.

How do you explain that the author gave the name Lyubim to one of the Tortsov brothers, and Gordey to the other? What qualities of people are suggested by names and surnames - African Korshunov (predator), Lyubov, Guslin, Razlyulyaev, Mitya?

(Gordey is a proud, rich merchant,

We love - loved by everyone, a good person, but a loser,

Guslin is a simple, cheerful guy (from the word “gusli” - old folk instrument),

Razlyulyaev is a simple, cheerful guy (from the outdated word “razlyuli” - fun),

Mitya –. dedicated greek goddess earth and fertility Demeter)

P. - Already in the poster O. secretly commented on his heroes. How?

W. - gave them speaking names and last names.

Peculiarity :

    Speaking names.

Once again I draw your attention to the author's presentation of the characters in the poster.

Which name does not fit into the general range of names? Why? For what purpose does O. indicate the status of the characters in this way? Why doesn’t the name Gordey evoke positive associations among familiar names?

Peculiarity:

Between which characters is the main conflict brewing? Why?

(The merchant Gordey Karpych Tortsov is fascinated by the manufacturer Korshunov, wants to live according to fashion, in a new way, and is even ready to give his only daughter to the old man)

What about the mother? (Narrow-minded, weak-willed, indecisive, she cannot resist her husband)

What is Lyubim’s role in this? family conflict? (He exposes Korshunov, a predator, upsets the wedding of Lyubov and Korshunov, stands up for Lyubov and Mitya, helps his brother see the light.)

With what words of Lyubim Tortsov does the conflict begin?

We love Karpych (takes it). We need a ten-kopeck piece. Everything here is silver, I don’t need silver. Give me another seven-note, and it will be in real rhythm. (Mitya gives.) That's enough. You are a kind soul, Mitya! (Lies down.) Brother doesn’t know how to appreciate you. Well, yes, I’ll do something with him. Wealth is evil for fools! Give me smart person money, he'll do the job. I walked around Moscow, I saw everything, everything... Great science has happened! And to the fool better than money don’t give in, otherwise he’ll break down... fu, fu, fu, thrr!... just like my brother, and like me, a brute... (In a half-asleep voice.) Mitya, I’ll come to spend the night with you.

Mitya. Come. Now the office is empty... holidays...

We love Karpych (falling asleep). And my brother and I will do a funny thing.(Falls asleep.)

(Sl. 11 – read as a summary of the answer to the question)

5. Brief overview actions.

Exercise: Sort by actions: exposition, setup; development of action, climax; denouement.

( Sl. 12 ) 1 action. The first act is a voluminous, bright, spectacular plot of the entire upcoming action. This is the initial moment in the development of events, prepared by the exposition. Here the reader gets the first ideas about the characters depicted and the conflict between them.

In the first act, Lyubim Tortsov’s words about his brother, important for the development of the action, are heard: “He, the fool, needs science,” “Well, I’ll do a trick with him. Wealth is evil for fools!”, “And my brother and I will do a funny thing.” The conflict is planned. The secret letter addressed to Mitya also indicates a love affair: “And I love you. Lyubov Tortsova.

P. - How do we get to know the main characters: Gordey Karpych and Lyubim Karpych?

W. – We hear about them from other characters.

About Gordey from Yegorushka: he swears, is angry with Lyubim Karpych,

from Pelageya: he drinks with African, as if they replaced him. (d. 1, appearance 3)

About Lyubim from Yegorushka: he made everyone laugh at dinner, Gordey kicked him out, Lyubim got into trouble in revenge: he stood with the beggars at the cathedral.

Peculiarity:

P. - From what lines do our heroes directly enter into action?

U. – Lyubim’s first remark (he saw Lyubov Gordeevna and Mitya alone in the room), covering his face with his hands: “Stop! What kind of person? By what type? For what purpose? Take it into doubt! Me, niece! What, were you scared? Go, don't be afraid! I’m not a prover, but I put everything in a box...” (D.1, Rev. 11)

Gordey’s first remark (d.1, yavl. 7) enters the room where young people are having fun: “Why are you singing! They bawler like men! (Mitya) And you too! It seems that you don’t live in such a house, not with men. What a half-beer house! So that I don’t have this in the future!

P. – What can you tell about the characters based on their first line? (L. - jokes, jokes, “not a prover”; G. - rude, humiliating, “manly” - swearing).

Peculiarity:

    The significance of the hero's first line

( Sl.13 ) Second act . The action moves quickly, introducing new characters, all of whom play their part in the course of the drama and the development of the conflict. The atmosphere of common young love, celebration and cheerful chaos with songs and music, fortune telling, mummers, performances with a bear and a goat is destroyed with the appearance of Gordey Karpych and Korshunov. The possibility of happiness for young heroes becomes illusory. “Son-in-law Afrikan Savich” is sure that he has no reason to worry, and orders the girls a “wedding” song. Lyubov Gordeevna is anxious, her friends surround the excited girl.

P. - What holiday are we talking about? Christmas time. What kind of holiday? By what signs can you guess that this is Christmas time?

- Why does Ostrovsky correlate the time of the play with the time of Christmastide celebrations?

U. – Compliance folk religious traditions. The main meaning is holy. period, according to popular ideas, was the revival of order in the world and in the life of every person as a particle of this world. (Traditions of oral folk art– folklore)

Peculiarity :

    Folklore moments.

( Sl. 14 ) Act three . The conflict of the drama, the clash of characters, ends. Despite the fact that the denouement logically follows from the development of the action, it is still unexpected in nature: this is really emphasized happy ending, because the development of the action was dramatic. The “thing” that Lyubim came up with helps the young couple out. This “thing” also saves Gordey from the ruin that threatened him if he became related to Korshunov, who is dishonest in financial matters. Thus, the denouement is directly related to the development of action in the second act; it is the final moment in the development of conflict and intrigue. We love Tortsov interferes with the natural course of events and prevents the triumph of evil. Protest against powerful of the world He puts this into a catchy form: “It is good for him to live in the world who has no shame in his eyes.”

Again the proverb!

It is aptly said that Ostrovsky’s theater is a speech theater. His plays have beautiful, poetically rich language. In fact, in Ostrovsky, someone who is a poet at heart speaks poetically. In Ostrovsky, each character speaks in his own language. The speech of the heroes - the most important means their characteristics. Let's prove it.

Reading passages. (Pelageya, We love)

Gordey Karpych. No, tell me this: am I okay? In another place, a fine guy in a suit or a girl is serving at the table, but I have a waiter in thread gloves. This ficiant, he is a scientist, from Moscow, he knows all the rules: where to sit, what to do. What about others? They will gather in one room, sit in a circle, and the peasants will sing songs. It is, of course, fun, but I think that it is low, there is no tone. And they drink something, due to their lack of education! There are different liqueurs, cherry blossoms... but they don’t understand that there’s champagne for that! Oh, if I lived in Moscow or in St. Petersburg, I would, it seems, imitate every fashion.

Explain the speech features of those characters whose monologues we read.

(Proudly illiterate, he believes that education is useless, the main thing is to live according to fashion.

We love: his speech has an element of undoubted intelligence; his speech is not patriarchal, not folklore, but belongs to Ostrovsky’s contemporary urban culture; alone of all the characters he uses some snatches of foreign phrases quite correctly and appropriately).

Peculiarity :

P. – If I asked you to identify similarities and differences between certain characters in the play, who would you compare and contrast? Why?

(Mitya - Korshunov. Similarities: intention to marry Lyubov Gordeevna; difference: Mitya’s honesty – Korshunov’s sneaky actions;

We love Tortsov - Gordey Tortsov. Similarities: brothers, in the end, Gordey begins to see the light and turns out to be no stranger to the truth. Difference: G. is a tyrant, external gloss is important to him, not human soul; L., who in his youth also succumbed to the supposedly mandatory maintenance of status and squandered his entire fortune, realized that the main thing in life is not money, because you can remain without money good person;

We love Tortsov – Korshunov. Similarities: former comrades. The difference: the honesty of the first and the dishonor of the second.)

Peculiarity :

6. This comparison will be yours homework, and we also need to answer the question: why is Lyubim Tortsov - Ostrovsky’s favorite hero?

7 . Let's sum it up lesson summary.

(Sl. 15 ) - Let us list the features of the dramaturgy of Alexander Nikolaevich Ostrovsky:

    Showing important all-Russian problems through family and domestic conflict

    Bright, recognizable characters;

    Originality of names.

    Speaking names.

    The unusual presentation of the characters in the playbill, which determines the conflict that will develop in the play.

    The “prepared appearance” of the main characters, others talk about them first.

    The significance of the hero's first line.

    Folklore moments.

    Originality speech characteristics heroes.

    Parallel consideration of comparable heroes.

If time permits, we can discuss the words of A.I. Goncharov: “You alone completed the building, at the foundation of which Fonvizin, Griboyedov, Gogol laid the cornerstones. But only after you can we, Russians, proudly say: “We have our own, Russian, national theater. It should rightly be called the “Ostrovsky Theater”.

There are a total of 22 presentations in the topic

Read the list of characters. What do you learn from it about the characters in the play? What do their last names “say” about the characters in the comedy? The heroes of the play are representatives of the Moscow nobility. Among them are the owners of comic and telling surnames: Molchalin, Skalozub, Tugoukhovsky, Khryumin, Khlestova, Repetilov. This circumstance tunes the audience to the perception of comic action and comic images. And only Chatsky of the main characters is named by last name, first name, patronymic. It appears to be valuable on its own merits.

attempts by researchers to analyze the etymology of surnames. So, the surname Famusov comes from English. famous – “fame”, “glory” or from Lat. fama – “rumour”, “rumor”. The name Sophia means “wisdom” in Greek. The name Lizanka is a tribute to the French comedy tradition, a clear translation of the name of the traditional French soubrette Lisette. Chatsky’s name and patronymic emphasize masculinity: Alexander (from the Greek, winner of husbands) Andreevich (from the Greek, courageous). There are several attempts to interpret the hero's surname, including associating it with Chaadaev, but all this remains

at the version level.

Why is the list of characters often called a poster?

A poster is an announcement about a performance. This term is used most often in the theatrical field, but in a play, as in a literary work, as a rule, it is designated as a “list of characters.” At the same time, the poster is a kind of exposition dramatic work, in which the characters are named with some very laconic but significant explanations, the sequence of their presentation to the viewer is indicated, and the time and place of action are indicated.

Explain the sequence of characters in the poster.

The sequence of arrangement of characters in the poster remains the same as is accepted in the dramaturgy of classicism. First, the head of the house and his household are called, Famusov, the manager in the official place, then Sophia, his daughter, Lizanka, the maid, Molchalin, the secretary. And only after them does it fit into the poster main character Alexander Andreevich Chatsky. After him come the guests, ranked by degree of nobility and importance, Repetilov, servants, many guests of all kinds, and waiters.

The classic order of the poster is disrupted by the presentation of the Gorich couple: Natalya Dmitrievna, the young lady, is named first, then Platon Mikhailovich, her husband. The violation of dramatic tradition is due to Griboyedov’s desire to hint already in the poster about the nature of the relationship between the young spouses.

The immersive performance, based on Henrik Ibsen’s play “Ghosts,” will take place on four levels of an ancient 19th-century mansion in the center of Moscow. Modern immersive performance implies the complete involvement of the viewer - each of them seems to find themselves in the world of films by David Lynch and Guillermo del Toro, in which, at a distance arm's length a mystical action will unfold, full of hints and sensual temptations.

During the show, spectators, wearing masks that preserve their anonymity, will be immersed in the dramatic story of the mysterious family relations, where each of the heroes keeps a difficult secret from the past. In each of the 50 rooms, an action will be played out, in which two dozen actors will skillfully mix the energy modern theater and incredible choreography, cinematic visual aesthetics and impressive special effects.

“The Returned” was the result of a creative and professional union between directors Victor Karina and Mia Zanetti from the New York theater company Journey Lab and Russian producers Vyacheslav Dusmukhametov and Miguel, director and mentor of the show “DANCES” on TNT.

“An immersive performance of this level will be staged in Russia for the first time. In the work on creating the show, not only the dedication and professionalism of the team was extremely important, but also latest technologies working with the audience and the experience of my American colleagues,” says show producer Miguel.

For musical arrangement show leader answers Therr Maitz Anton Belyaev, and the speakeasy bar of the show will receive a special music program with the participation of Russian and foreign artists.

"Ghosts" or "Ghosts" - play Norwegian classic Henrik Ibsen, written exactly 135 years ago, in 1881. Critics often compare the plot to a web of mysteries. A certain house is preparing for a big event - at the expense of the widow of the venerable captain Alving, an orphanage is to be opened in memory of her husband. Relatives and old friends gather on this occasion, but strange events and ghosts, as if returning from the past, tragically change the fates of all the heroes.

To convey the atmosphere of Ibsen's play in our time, the show's team of artists, decorators and costume designers recreated an interior that absorbed the spirit of the Nordic countries in a historical 19th-century mansion.

The Moscow premiere immediately aroused great interest not only among viewers, but also among the professional community. “The Returned” became the headliners of the program of one of the most prestigious theater shows in the capital - the festival of the New European Theater NET.

“One of the themes of the festival was immersive theater- as a genre that is quickly gaining an audience, which only yesterday seemed like a marginal exotic. Therefore, the project, which should become a landmark for the development of this genre, attracted our attention,” says festival art director Roman Dolzhansky.
