"The Enchanted Place" is the fourth and final story of the second part of "Evenings on a Farm Near Dikanka" by Gogol. It is told again by the deacon of the local church, Foma Grigorievich. The main character of the story is his grandfather, already familiar to readers from the story “The Lost Letter”.
One summer, when Foma Grigorievich was still a small child, his grandfather sowed a vegetable garden with melons and watermelons on the road and sold the fruits from it to passing merchants. Once, about six carts stopped by the garden, in which old friends of my grandfather were traveling. The grandfather, overjoyed at the meeting, treated his old friends well, and then, to celebrate, began to dance. Making, despite his old age, various intricate knees, he came to one place near the garden with cucumbers - and there his grandfather's legs suddenly became like wooden ones and stopped serving him. Stepping back, he accelerated again, but in the same place he again became, as if bewitched. Cursing Satan, the grandfather suddenly heard someone laughing behind him. He looked around and saw that he was not at all where he had stood a moment before, but on the other side of his village. And in the yard it was no longer day, but night.
At some distance, the grandfather noticed the grave. A candle suddenly flashed on it, and behind it another. According to popular legend, such things happened in places where treasures were buried. The grandfather was very happy, but he had neither a spade nor a shovel with him. Noticing a place with a treasure of a large branch, the grandfather returned home.
The next day, he went to dig the treasure with a spade. It turned out, however, that the spot he saw did not look quite the same as the day before. The view of the surroundings was different, and my grandfather could not find the branch he had left yesterday. Turning back, he walked through the garden to an enchanted place where he could not dance, in his hearts he hit the ground with a spade - and again found himself on the same outskirts of the village where he had been the day before. Now she looked like she did then. The grandfather immediately saw there both the grave and the branch left on it.
My grandfather began to dig in search of a treasure and soon stumbled upon a boiler in the ground. "Ah, darling, that's where you are!" - the grandfather cried out, and these words of his were suddenly repeated in human voices by a bird that had flown in from nowhere, a ram's head hanging from a tree and a growling bear. A terrible mug appeared from the stump of a nearby tree, a deep sinkhole suddenly seemed to my grandfather, and a huge mountain behind. Somehow overcoming his fear, he pulled the cauldron of treasure out of the ground, grabbed it and ran as best he could. Behind, someone was whipping his legs with rods ...
Gogol "The Enchanted Place". Illustration
Meanwhile, in the garden, Thomas, his brothers and the mother who came to feed them with dinner wondered: where did the grandfather go again? Having collected the slops in a bucket after supper, the mother was looking for where to pour them, and suddenly she saw: a tub was moving towards her as if by itself. The mother thought that the guys were joking and threw the slop into the tub, but then there was a shout, and instead of the tub she saw a drenched grandfather in front of her with a large cauldron in his hands. However, instead of gold, which the old man hoped to find, there was dirt and squabble in the cauldron ...
And how many then they did not sow, writes Gogol, that enchanted place in the middle of the garden, nothing worthwhile has never grown there. There was something that sprang up at this place that it was impossible to make out: a watermelon is not a watermelon, a pumpkin is not a pumpkin, a cucumber is not a cucumber ... God knows what it is!
The story "Enchanted Place" ( fourth), the second part of "Evenings on a Farm near Dikanka" ends. It was first published in 1832 in the second book "Evenings". The absence of a manuscript makes it impossible to determine the exact date of the writing of the story. It is assumed that it refers to the early works of N.V. Gogol and refers to the period 1829 - 1830.
In the storyline, two main motives are intertwined: the search for the treasure and the ugliness created by devils in enchanted places. The story itself originates in folklore stories, in which the main leitmotif is the idea that wealth obtained from evil spirits does not bring happiness. In some ways, she echoes "The Evening on the Eve of Ivan Kupala". The author denounces the thirst for enrichment, an irrepressible passion for money, which definitely leads to catastrophic consequences, and turns the acquired money into trash. The story is based on popular beliefs and legends about enchanted "deceitful places".
Analysis of the work
The plot of the work
Based on folklore, with which Nikolai Vasilievich was perfectly familiar from childhood. Legends and beliefs about "enchanted places" and treasures exist among most of the peoples of the world. The Slavs had a belief that treasures can be found in the cemetery. A candle flashed over the grave with the treasure. It is traditional and popular belief that unjustly obtained wealth turns into garbage.
The story is rich in juicy, bright, distinctive folk Ukrainian language, which is sprinkled with Ukrainian words: "bashtan", "kuren", "chumaki". The folk way of life is displayed as accurately as possible, Gogol's humor creates a unique atmosphere. The story is structured in such a way that there is a feeling of personal presence, as if you yourself are among the listeners of the sexton. This is achieved through accurate commentary by the narrator.
The plot is based on the story of the sexton of the local church Foma Grigorievich, familiar to many readers from the story "The Missing Letter", about an incident in the life of his grandfather. His story, vivid and memorable, is full of humor. It was not by chance that the author gave the story the name “Enchanted Place”. Two worlds are intertwined in it: reality and fantasy. The real world is represented by people's everyday life, the fantastic is a grave, treasure and devilry. The sexton's memories take him back to his childhood. The father and the eldest son left to sell tobacco. A mother with three children and a grandfather remained at home. Once, having gone on a spree with visiting traders, the grandfather began to dance in the garden until he reached one place in the garden and stopped rooted to the spot near the garden with cucumbers. He looked around and did not recognize the place, but realized that he was behind the clerk's threshing floor. Somehow I found a path and saw a candle flare up on a nearby grave. I noticed another grave. On it, too, a candle flashed, followed by another.
According to popular legend, this happens where the treasure is buried. The grandfather was delighted, but he had nothing with him. Marking the place with a large branch, I went home. The next day he tried to find this place, but did not find anything, only accidentally hitting a cucumber patch with a spade, he again found himself in the same place, near the grave on which the stone lay.
And then the real devilry began. Before the grandfather had time to get the tobacco to sniff, someone sneezed behind his ear. I started digging and dug up the pot. "Ah, my dear, that's where you are!" And after him the same words were repeated by a bird, a ram's head from the top of a tree and a bear. The grandfather got scared, grabbed the cauldron and rushed to run. At this time, his mother and children began to look for him. After dinner, the mother went out to pour out the hot slop and saw a barrel crawling on her. Deciding that these were naughty children, the woman poured the slops on her. But it turned out that it was my grandfather.
We decided to see what kind of treasure my grandfather had brought, opened the pot, and there was rubbish "and it's a shame to say what it is." Since then, the grandfather began to believe only in Christ, and fenced off the enchanted place with a fence.
main characters
Grandfather Maxim
The hero of the story is grandfather Maxim. Judging by the words of the sexton, his grandfather was a cheerful and interesting person. In the author's ironic description, this is a cheerful, lively old man who loves to have fun, to joke, to brag somewhere. A great lover of listening to the stories of the Chumaks. He refers to his grandchildren as "dog children", but it is clear that they are all his favorites. Grandchildren respond to him with the same love.
Enchanted place
The enchanted place itself can be called the hero of the story. In modern terms, it can be called an anomalous place. Grandfather Maxim discovers this place by accident while dancing. Inside the zone, space and time change their properties, which the old man attributes to evil spirits. The anomalous zone itself also has its own character. It does not show much love for strangers, but it does not harm clearly, only frightening. There is no great harm from the presence of this place in the real world, except that nothing grows here. Moreover, it is ready to play with the old man. It hides from him, then it opens easily. In addition, he has a lot of intimidation tools at his disposal: the weather, the disappearing moon, talking ram heads and monsters.
The demonstration of all these miracles frightens the old man for a while and he abandons his find, but the thirst for the treasure turns out to be stronger than fear. For this, the grandfather receives the punishment. The cauldron, which he obtained with such difficulty, turned out to be full of garbage. Science went for him. Grandfather became very pious, swore to contact evil spirits and punished all his loved ones.
Conclusion
With this story, Gogol shows that only that wealth that is acquired in an honest way is used for the future, and that that is acquired in a dishonest way is illusory. Using the example of the story with his grandfather, he gives us the opportunity to believe in good and bright. The writer's contemporaries, including Belinsky, Pushkin Herzen, received the story with rave reviews. For more than 150 years, this story has caused the reader to smile, immersing him in the amazing Gogolian world of wit, fantasy, folk poetry, in which the very soul of the people comes to life.
"Enchanted place" is uniquely skillful use of folklore and folk legends. Even the evil spirits introduced into the story have nothing to do with mysticism. Folk fiction is attractive to us for its everyday simplicity, naive and spontaneous. Therefore, all of Gogol's heroes are full of bright life colors, full of enthusiasm and folk humor.

Golden chicken
Well, an old woman was walking, one of the bains, and a chicken was running in front of her, and all such a lot of gold. She followed this chicken - and wanted to catch her, and she away from her - and she followed. Such a golden chicken runs - and into the bird cherry. She looked: she was lost in the bird cherry. I searched and searched, then went in, went to opeet again to look, could not find. Kurushka is so lost.
Then, which people know, they say: here the treasure came through Cheryomushki. And so they could not find.<...>
Yes, so I myself went to look, got along to find ... I would have received gold, but I could not find anything.
To wear - not to stand
<...> He served in the army. And here one of the passing people says:
- In such and such a place in the Olonets province of the Kargopol district there is a stone-maker. There is a treasure there: to carry - not to carry and to carry - not to take out. And the place: there is a stone in this stone, and there is a fontanel in the stone. And there is a treasure in this place.
So no one knows what kind of treasure there is: to carry - not to carry and to carry - not to take out. The police could be sent there, maybe they would find it.
It turns, but it is not given in the hands
There is such a treasure: the pot spins, but it is not given in the hands. It was in the Great Court, in Almozero.
Digging - it is already close. He would only be taken - and he will thunder again - and down. They dig deeper - again it is down.
After all, one must not rush, but know the words, and approach the icon ...
Lamb from under the floor
One family lived calmly, quietly. The family was big. Parents go to the fields, children are left at home.
One fine time parents come home, children complain that the lamb is playing with them.
- What lamb? - they ask.
- Yes, from under the floor, - the children answer.
Children ask to get a lamb. But who will believe?
And the legend went through the village. The village began to live under fear. The children were swollen and did not play. And the lamb climbed out and played with the children. I climbed out the golden ball ... either as a golden man or as a lamb again pretended to be.
So the years passed. Witches began to emerge from the baths. In empty houses, music played, devils danced. Young people sat at home in the evenings.
And this news reached the village chieftain. He took good Cossacks and came to the village to check how true this was. They came to this family and began to excavate. And they found at a depth of three meters a saber of Damascus steel and a basket of gold. And it turned out that the one who laid the treasure made a spell and that the treasure should thus be revealed. And so in this house the owner became a rich merchant. All this was bequeathed by ancestors to posterity.

(from the movie)
N.V. Gogol was born on March 20 (April 1), 1809 in the town of Velyki Sorochintsy, Mirgorodsky district, Poltava province, into the family of a poor landowner. Childhood years were spent in the estate of Vasilyevka's parents, near the village of Dikanka, the land of legends, beliefs and historical traditions. In the upbringing of the future writer, a certain role was played by his father, Vasily Afanasyevich, who had literary abilities and passed on humor and writing talent to his son.
Gogol's mother, Marya Ivanovna, is a kind, gentle, superstitious woman.She came from a landowner family. According to legend, she was the first beauty in the Poltava region. She married Vasily Afanasyevich at the age of fourteen.
In addition to Nikolai, Vasily and Maria Gogol hadfive children - son Ivan (1810 - 1819), daughters Maria (1811 - 1844), Anna (1821 - 1893), Elizabeth (1823 - 1864), Olga (1825 - 1907).

1 student: about Gogol's childhood
Nikosha learned to speak at the age of three: nature, as it were, slowed down his development, in order to then let his forces splash out. The first years he was with his relatives. He especially loved his grandmother Tatyana Semyonovna, who lived in a separate house, located at a distance from the big house. His grandmother taught him to draw, embroider with a garus. She told him about the herbs that hung on her walls, about what kind of herb heals, from her he heard Gogol and Cossack songs.
There were days when he ran away into the steppe and lay there for hours, looking at the sky and listening to underground sounds, when it was impossible to reach or find him. But there were hours when it was impossible to tear him away from his mother, from his grandmother, from the house. At such hours, he indulged in quiet household chores - drawing, coloring maps, helping women unwind threads. He was meek, obedient, silent, affectionate.
There were many children, many worries too, and Nikosha spent time alone. So he got used to loneliness - to loneliness among people and loneliness alone with himself. This created a character that is secretive, closed, but also able to focus on himself.
Until the age of ten, brother Ivan was nearby, but the difference in natures affected their relationship. There remained other interlocutors - a park, a pond, a road and a steppe. Behind the church, standing on a dais opposite the house, the road began to the sycamore forest, by walking which one could get to the village of Zhuki, and from there to Dikanka.
Gogol's childhood life combined the prosaic present with the ghostly fabulous past. Nearby was Dikanka, about whom many legends were told. Once upon a time there were dense oak forests - wild forests, that's why the place was called Dikanka. The sunbeam did not fall into their thickets, they frightened with their mysterious darkness and depth.
2 student: about a friend
Later, his lonely walks began to be divided by Sasha Danilevsky - a neighbor and a peer - with whom they came together overnight - they came together firmly, forever. Gogol remembered for the rest of his life the day when Sasha suddenly appeared at his bedside, and attentive, kind, lively black eyes looked at him through the fog: Nikosha had a fever, he was ill. There was a cup with cranberries on the table in front of the bed - Nikosha invited Sasha to taste it, he politely took a few berries. And this gesture of kindness, consent, sympathy united their hearts. Together they walked around the outskirts of Vasilyevka, celebrated the holidays together, strolled with the mummers on Christmas night, painted gifts for their parents - pictures from books, landscapes, together dreamed of serving for the benefit of the fatherland.
"My closest", "brother", "beloved" - these are the words the adult Gogol will call his friend Danilevsky. He will be more attached to him than to komulibo. He will forgive insults, silence, cooling. He will yearn for him in his travels, he will write the most tender letters. Together they will go through their studies at the gymnasium, through life in St. Petersburg, together they will leave Russia, but even after parting, they will not part in spirit.
Teacher's word: Gogol's house was cheerful, hospitable and very abundant, despite the fact that the family was never rich. His father took him with his brother in a carriage when he went around the estate. And at home, Nikolai was happy to talk about what he saw to everyone at home, and they admired how well he was able to notice and describe everything. In the kitchen, something was constantly being boiled, steamed and fried, it was warm, cozy and at ease.
Of all the guests who came to Vasilyevka, Nikosha loved only one. He lit up with happiness when he heard the bells of his carriage from afar. The clapper immediately ran out onto the road, clung to the carriage, helped the guest to get down to the ground, took his hat, and kissed his hand. And, beaming with pleasure, he ran alongside. A big mystery for Vasily Afanasyevich was this friendship of a small child with a 60-year-old man, renowned writer Vasily Vasilyevich Kapnist. It all started with a joke ... Vasily Afanasevich, Nikosha's father, said that what good would a tragedy appear, which his son would write ... Kapnist, laughing, threw up his hands: Where is this dear kid, brother by inspiration? At that moment, my brother, inspired by inspiration, was sitting at a table in the next room. With his left hand, he nervously fiddled with his hair, in his right hand was a convulsively clenched feather.
Vasily Afanasyevich and Kapnist tiptoed up to Nikosha. And then the old poet quietly chanted: “What did you stumble on, poet?”, The frightened Nikosha jumped up from his chair. Kapnist affectionately told him: “No, cotton, you shouldn't hide with your inspiration: after all, you entrusted it to paper in order to tell people a word. Show us your triumphant song. ” Nikosha pressed the sheet even tighter to his chest. Vasily Vasilievich Kapnist, grinning, said:
I see. So you are ashamed of mere mortals? But you and I are brothers in muse.
The scribbled sheet of paper trembled slightly in Nikosha's hand. And then the old poet realized that he had touched the right string.
Of course, you are not used to a large audience yet. But you and I will go where there will be only three of us: you, me, and the muse of our poetry ...
Kapnist took his arm and, beaming with a smile, retired with him into the next room. Finally the doors opened ... The old poet was silent. And just getting into the carriage, he suddenly said, almost in a whisper:
But the lad, perhaps, has talent. It seems that we were joking in vain. But who would have thought!
Teacher: In May 1821 Gogol successfully entered the gymnasium in Nizhyn (slide 8)
viewing a fragment of a video (2 min) with an entry in the table from the work. notebooks
1821-1828 For ten years Gogol was taken to Poltava for preparation at the Gymnasium, to one of the local teachers; then he entered the gymnasium of higher sciences in Nizhyn (from May 1821 to June 1828), where he was first a self-employed, then a boarder of the gymnasium. Gogol was not a diligent student, but he had an excellent memory, in a few days he prepared for exams and moved from class to class; he was very weak in languages \u200b\u200band only succeeded in drawing and Russian literature. Gogol is studying at the Nizhyn gymnasium. The time of adolescence is a time of complex and deep inner work, externally bearing the stamp of isolation and secrecy. At this time, like everyone else in his youth, he experiences romantic influences: "he is a mysterious, lonely and dreamer driven by light."
From a letter to his mother in 1828: “I am considered a mystery to everyone; nobody figured me out completely. Here they call me humble, the ideal of meekness and patience. In one place I am the quietest, most modest, courteous; in another - gloomy, brooding, uncouth, etc .; in the third - talkative and annoying to the extreme; some are clever, others are stupid. And the obligatory persecution of the light. "
He was called "the mysterious Karla". Young Gogol dreams of a heroic deed, of an exceptional mission. At the heart of his dreams is the desire to assert himself.
Teacher: In the last grades of the gymnasium, Gogol started a "Book of All Sorts". In this thick notebook in brown leather binding, he alphabetically entered various useful information, there was also a dictionary of Ukrainian words with translation into Russian, a description of the games and amusements of Little Russians, their rituals, customs, recording songs, riddles, proverbs, names of Little Russian dishes. It is no coincidence that Gogol called his notes "a handy encyclopedia", because he actively used this material when working on his works. Gogol used some of the explanations of the Little Russian words included in this notebook, for example, when publishing Evenings on a Farm near Dikanka.
In 1829 goes to Petersburg. He is 20 years old. The capital greeted him unfriendly.

Arriving in St. Petersburg, he was amazed to see how great the capital's interest in everything Ukrainian. In the capital magazines, works of Ukrainian writers were printed, collections of songs, books on the history of Ukraine were published.
Gogol's appeal to the Ukrainian theme was logical. His childhood and youth were spent in Ukraine. From here he took out his first impressions of life, here a love for Ukrainian folklore was born in him. Arriving in St. Petersburg, Gogol unexpectedly felt here an atmosphere of deep interest in Ukrainian culture. “Everything that is Little Russian occupies so much here,” Gogol tells his mother with joyful amazement a few months after his arrival in St. Petersburg.
So, Gogol worked on "Evenings ..." in the evening, at night, in his free time. Maybe that's why dreams are so inspired in them. Gogol is the poet of the night: "The Night Before Christmas", "May Night, or the Drowned Woman". At night, the fantastic events of the Sorochinskaya Fair fall, at night a murder is committed in the Evening on the Eve of Ivan Kupala, revenge in Terrible Vengeance. At night, the devils of the heroes fool around in The Lost Letter and The Enchanted Place.
III. Folk legends about treasures - the basis of the story "The Enchanted Place"
Teacher: At this point, we will interrupt our journey through the life of Nikolai Gogol and move on to his work. Gogol based his "Evenings on a Farm Near Dikanka" one of the folk legends. Who knows, maybe such a thing?
3 student: “Once upon a time there was a poor man, a boar, and he endured a terrible need. Once he had a chance to plow his own plowed land, and the arable land was not far from the mounds. It was getting dark. Here on one grave he sees a bean horse, all as if made of gold and burns like fire. The bobyl did not shy away: he chased the horse. A wonderful horse was jumping from mound to mound; but finally got tired and stopped at one of the mounds. The boby to her, almost touches the horse's mane and prepares to grab onto it. Lo and behold, the ground parted, and the horse disappeared under the mound. The next day, on the same mound, he tempted that a candle was burning. Bobyl was an idle person and immediately realized that there was a treasure under the mound, which had come to come out into the light of God. He knew how treasures were mined, and although he endured a lot from evil spirits, he got himself heaps of silver and gold and became the first rich man in his society. "
IV. Text analysis."An enchanted place."
At home you read the story "The Enchanted Place".Do you like the work?
Who is the narrator in Gogol's story about the enchanted place?(the story told by the sexton ... of the church)
What words does he use? Were all the words clear? (slide 10)
unclean spirit
Faint
Batko
Bad
Hang ears
Tales
Razdobary
They hired her from the daddy under the bashtan
Teacher: Consider the illustrations for the story. How did you imagine this fantastic place? And why fantastic?(slides 11 - 15)
Teacher: In letters to his mother N.V. Gogol read to write to him “about Ivan Kupala, about mermaids ... A lot of beliefs, terrible tales, legends rush among the common people ...” Which of them did Gogol use in the story you read? Was the folk legend about the treasures reflected in Gogol's text? What doesn't look like popular tradition? Why is Gogol's text more entertaining?
Conclusion: The writer rethought the text of the legend in his own way: "impure" wealth "turns into garbage. Why?(free)
- What was your grandfather's favorite pastime?(Listen to different stories from passers-by.)
- What happened one day, how did he go to dance?(In one place the arms and legs refused to obey.)
- Where did the candle burn?(In the cemetery, this is a sure sign that a treasure is hidden.)
- How did grandfather get to the right place the second time?(I struck in my hearts at the "enchanted place" where they did not dance.)
- Did you like the treasure that your grandfather "got" with such difficulty? What treasure did he get?(Waste boiler.)
- What grew in the enchanted place?(Nothing good grew there: "A watermelon is not a watermelon, a pumpkin is not a pumpkin, the devil knows what it is!")
Thus, the story "The Enchanted Place", like other stories "Evenings", is based on traditional folklore motives. But in this story, as in others, Gogol does not reproduce exactly folklore material, but creates his own work. The Enchanted Place is especially characterized by a humorous tone of presentation. Fantastic elements are inserted into the everyday realistic frame, the author introduces many everyday details of a comic nature and gives the speech itself a purely everyday colloquial character.
V. Homework.
The story "Enchanted Place" is the final one in the collection "Evenings ...". Literary critic NL Stepanov notes that in her "fantasy is intertwined with vital, everyday details." Write out the real and the fantastic in the form of a table.(slide 17)
