What makes us turn to N. M. Karamzin's story "Poor Liza", written two centuries ago? What attracts the modern reader, tempted by more serious literature, with such a naive plot, archaic language? Is it just the banal statement that “peasant women know how to love”?

We are attracted in the story, first of all, by the image of universal human feelings and passions: love and deceit, fidelity and betrayal.

We are touched by the fate of poor Lisa, her unfortunate mother, and if we do not shed tears over the story, it is only because our age has weaned us from such a manifestation of feelings.

N. M. Karamzin, a sentimentalist writer, considered the treasures of the human soul to be the main universal values: kindness, innocence, the ability to love.

Liza and Erast belong to different classes, and moral values ​​are different for them. The happiness of the family in which Liza grew up was not in wealth, not in the nobility of the family, but in hard work, touching care of family members for each other, love of parents and daughter. They are convinced that "it is better to feed yourself by your labors and not take anything for nothing." Left without a father, Liza helped her mother, and “a sensitive, kind old woman, seeing her daughter’s indefatigability, often pressed her to her weakly beating heart, called her divine mercy, nurse, the joy of her old age and prayed to God that he would reward her for everything that she does for her mother.

The idyllic calm life of the family was destroyed by Lisa's meeting with the young rich nobleman Erast, a man "with a fair mind and a kind heart, kind by nature, but weak and windy." The simple-hearted old woman sincerely fell in love with Lisa's new acquaintance. She could not even think that they would end in trouble - she believed too much in the prudence of her daughter and the nobility of the young nobleman. I believed Erast and Lisa. “Oh, Erast! she said. “Will you always love me?” “Always, dear Lisa, always!” he answered. And Lisa did not demand oaths, she did not doubt the sincerity of her beloved. endowed the girl with the richest gift - the ability to love. "Oh! I would rather forget my soul than my dear friend!” she thinks, and these words will be confirmed by the life and death of poor Lisa.

Erast fell in love with a young peasant woman, dreamed of always being with her. “I will live with Liza like brother and sister,” he thought, “I will not use her love for evil and I will always be happy!” He probably believed in it himself, but is a person always a master of his word? For Erast, the main value is money. For the sake of money he plays cards, for the sake of money he is going to marry a rich bride without love, for the sake of money he renounces his love. An illiterate peasant woman, Liza turned out to be nobler, taller, better educated nobleman Erast.

Lisa could not bear the betrayal of Erast, drowned herself in the pond. The narrator mourns the desecrated honor, the ruined life of Lisa, without blaming her for either excessive credulity, or even the mortal sin of suicide. He comes to the Simonov Monastery in order to remember again and again the deplorable fate of a girl who lived her short life as she prompted, without reasoning, without calculating, loving and forgiving, as her heart told her.

What is the true, deep reason for the death of poor Liza? First of all, in social, class inequality. Nobles and peasants have different ideas about universal human values: for Erast, love is fun, the subject of sentimental dreams, for Lisa, the meaning of life. The author makes us think today about the imperfection of society, in which moral values ​​are replaced by material ones. To live according to the laws of the heart, Karamzin believes, means to live in accordance with the moral law.

And who knows his heart? The story makes you think about how wonderful God is.

>Compositions based on the work of Poor Liza

Moral values

In the modern world, where cruelty, cynicism and indifference are increasingly ruling, you rarely meet a person who is able to sincerely empathize, give kindness and show mercy towards his neighbor. In a period of technological progress and global computerization, it is especially difficult to instill in children a positive example of attitude towards others. The media shows one violence after another, thus only emphasizing the significance of the war. Therefore, in such an age, it is especially important to read such works as the story “Poor Lisa”.

N. M. Karamzin paid special attention to such values ​​as humanity, kindness, a sense of responsibility, sincerity and mercy. He belonged to the most famous sentimentalists, which could not but be reflected in his work. It was this literary direction, more than the others, that was called upon to educate people in kindness and humanity, to form an aesthetic perception of the world through music, literature, and art. What attracts a sophisticated reader today to a story written more than two centuries ago? A depiction of a story of unhappy love or its main subtext?

First of all, after reading this book, any person will be affected by the fate of a poor girl who loved so sincerely and ingenuously that it is less and less common these days. Secondly, we are attracted by the theme of universal human feelings and passions. In this small and seemingly accessible work for every mind, love, loyalty, and betrayal are depicted. The main character is the antipode of aristocratic hypocrisy. She has all those positive qualities and virtues that are so lacking in the young nobleman she met on her way.

Lisa's kindness, innocence and ability to love immediately bribe with their sincerity, while Erast's cowardice and weakness of character, on the contrary, repel. The moral values ​​of young people are polar opposites. The author emphasizes that Erast is not devoid of a fair share of reason and is naturally endowed with a kind heart. However, his inability to resist temptations, his penchant for gambling and, as a result, his inability to keep his word lead to a sad ending. Lisa is a girl from the peasant class. She is endowed with the best and most important human virtues: kindness, fidelity, sincerity, and most importantly, the ability to love.

She could not bear the betrayal of the man she loved so much. At the same time, life with a defamed name seems impossible for Liza. She finds only one way out of this situation - to throw herself into a deep pool. Here the question involuntarily arises, could she have done otherwise? I think not. With such moral values ​​as she was endowed with, it seemed impossible for her to live with such a burden. The author himself believes that one must live according to the laws of the heart, that is, in accordance with one's moral principles. That is why he endowed his heroine with the best human feelings and qualities.

1. Work, honesty, kindness of soul are the main moral values ​​of Lisa's family.
