The author of the work in the beautiful and fierce world. A brief retelling of the story "In the Beautiful and Furious World" (N. N. N. Nekrasov). Life in darkness

The initial name of the story is "Maltsey Machiner". Under such a heading, he was printed in a shortened form in the second issue of the magazine "30 days" in 1941, and in the third issue of the magazine "Friendly guys" in 1941 called "Imaginary Light". The story was written in 1938.

The work reflects the experience of the writer, which in 1915-1917. He worked as an assistant driver in the vicinity of Voronezh, and his father was a mechanic and an assistant driver.

Literary direction and genre

In some editions, "in the beautiful and violent world" is printed with the subtitle "Fantastic story". Indeed, double dazzling with zipper, double recovery of vision does not have scientific evidence. And it is completely unknown, as lightning affects the electromagnetic wave preceding it on the sight of individual people. It even doesn't matter for the reader if this electromagnetic wave is at all.

All these physical and biological explanations of the blinding of Maltsev and his wonderful healing are really fantastic, but in general the story is realistic. The main thing in it is not fantastic elements, but the characters of the narrator and the driver of Maltsev, shown in development.

Topics and problematics

The topic of the story is the loneliness of the master. The main idea is that talent often leads to the pride, which makes a man blind. To see the world, you need to reveal to meet his heart.

The problem rises the problem of exceeding and sympathy, loneliness, the problem of fairness of man's sentence, the problem of guilt and responsibility.

Plot and composition

A small story consists of 5 parts. The narration is dynamic, covers two years. The narrator becomes Assistant Maltsev's driver on a new locomotive and works with him about a year. The second chapter is dedicated to the very ride, during which the landorist landed and almost drove into the tail of the trade train. The third chapter describes the court over Maltsev and the accusation of him.

The fourth part tells about the events occurring in six months, in the winter. The narrator finds a way to prove the innocence of Maltsev, but artificial lightning causes an irreversible blindness of the prisoner. The narrator is looking for ways to help blind.

The fifth part tells about the events that happened in half a year, in the summer. The narrator himself becomes a driver and takes with him on the road blind engineer. The narrator manages the car, putting his hands on the hands of a blind machine. At some point, a yellow signal was able to see the blind, and then became a moay.

Each part of the story records some episode from the history of Maltsev: a regular trip - a rock trip - the court - an experiment with lightning and liberation - healing.

The name of the story is connected with the last words of the narrator who wants to protect Maltsev from the hostile forces of the beautiful and fierce world.

Heroes and images

The image of a beautiful world, a hostile person - the main in the story. In the story, two main characters: Machinist Alexander Vasilyevich Maltsev and the narrator, whom Maltsev calls Kostya. The narrator and Maltsev are not particularly friendly. The story is the story of their relationship, rapprochement, acquiring a friend's trouble.

Maltsev driver is a real master of his business. Already at the age of 30, he has the qualifications of the first-class driver, it is its appointment by a new powerful "IP" machine. The narrator admires the work of his driver, which leads the steam locomotive "With the confidence of the Great Master, with the concentration of inspired artist." The main feature that Mal'tsev is noticed by the narrator is indifference to people working with him, some alienation. One of the features of Maltsev grieves the storyteller: the driver rechecks all the work of his assistant, as if he did not trust him. During the work, Maltsev does not speak, but only knocks the key around the boiler, giving silent instructions.

The narrator over time, I realized that the reason for such behavior of Maltsev was in a sense of superiority: the driver believed that he had better understood the locomotive and loved him more. This pride, mortal sin, perhaps, caused his tests. Although Maltsev's talent really could not understand how and surpass him in mastery.

Maltsev did not see lightning, but, blinding, did not understand this. His skill was so great that he blindly led the car, in the inner vision seeing, representing the whole habitual path, but, of course, without knowing how to consider the red signal seemingly greenery.

Coming out of prison, blind Maltsev can not get used to their new position, although not a dirty, receiving a pension. He is humble in front of a storyteller, who offers him to drive in his locomotive. Perhaps it was this humility that became the beginning of the recovery of Maltsev, who managed to trust the storyteller. His inner world revealed internally, he cried and saw "all the light." Not only material, but also the world of other people.

The narrator is a man who loving his work, like Maltsev. Even the contemplation of a good car causes him inspiration, joy, comparable to reading Pushkin's poems in childhood.

For a narrator, good attitude is important. He is attentive and diligent man. It contains an amazing and rare ability to sympathize and protect. This feature of the narrator, like his profession, autobiographical.

For example, the storytellor seems that the locomotive is in a hurry to protect distant lands. So care about Maltsev encourages the storyteller to seek justice at the court, meet the investigator to justify the innocent Maltsev.

The narrator is a direct and truthful man. He does not hide that it is offended by Maltsev, directly tells him that the prisons cannot be avoided. Still, the narrator makes a decision to help the Maltsev, "to protect him from burning fate," from "fatal forces, accidentally and indifferently destroying people."

The narrator does not consider himself to be guilty in the secondary blindness of Maltsev, he is benevolent, despite the fact that Maltsev does not want to forgive him or talk with him. Already after the wonderful healing of Maltsev, the narrator wants to defend him as his native son.

Another hero of the story is a fair investigator who conducted an experiment with an artificial lightning and tormented by remorse, because he proved the "man's innocence through his misfortune."

Stylistic features

Since the story is written from the first person, and the Kostya narrator, although he loves Pushkin. A technical warehouse person, Platonic uses its specific, filled with strange metaphoricity. This language is breaking only in especially important moments for the author, for example, when the author names the driver explains that the driver of Maltsev absorbed the entire external world in his inner experience, thus gaining power over him.

The story is replete with a professional vocabulary associated with the work of the locomotive. Obviously, in the times of Platonov, few people understood the details of the work of the locomotive, and today, when there are no locomotives, these details are generally incomprehensible. But professionalism does not interfere with reading and understanding the story. Probably, each reader presents something to his own when he reads that Maltsev gave the "reverse to a complete cut-off". It is important that the driver performed his hard work well.

The story is important details. One of them is the eyes and eyes of Maltsev. When he leads the car, his eyes look "Abstracted, like empty." When the Maltsev gives his head, considering the world around him, his eyes brilliantly enforced. The blind eyes of the driver again become empty and calm.

(Maltsev driver)

1

Alexander Vasilyevich Maltsev was considered the best locomotive driver of Maltsev to Tobsev's depot. He was thirty years old, but he had already qualified the first-class driver and long ago drove fast trains. When the first powerful passenger locomotive series "IP" arrived in our depot, Maltsev was appointed to this car, which was quite reasonable and correct. The Assistant of Maltsev worked an elderly man from Depot Slicers named Fedor Petrovich Durbanov, but he soon endured the exam on the driver and went to work on another car, and I was, instead of Draban, it was defined to work in the Maltsev's assistant brigade; Before that, I also worked as an assistant mechanic, but only on an old, low-power car. I was pleased with my destination. The "IP" car, the only then on our tractive plot, I had a sense of enthusiasm with one of my appearance; I could take a long time to look at her, and the special touched joy awakened in me - as beautiful as in childhood when I first read Pushkin's poems. In addition, I wished to work in a team of a first-class mechanic to learn from him the art of driving heavy high-speed trains. Alexander Vasilyevich took my appointment in his brigade calmly and indifferently; He was, apparently, anyway, who he will be in assistants. Before the trip, I, as usual, checked all the nodes of the car, experienced all its serving and auxiliary mechanisms and calmed down, considering the car ready for the trip. Alexander Vasilyevich saw my work, he watched her, but after me his own hands again checked the state of the car, rightly he did not trust me. So repeated later, and I was already accustomed to the fact that Alexander Vasilyevich constantly intervened in my duties, although it was staring silently. But usually, as soon as we were in the go, I forgot about my chagrin. After being distracted by attention from the devices following the state of the running locomotive, from observing the work of the left car and the way ahead, I looked at Maltsev. He led the composition with the brave confidence of the Great Master, with the concentration of an inspirational artist who had the entire external world in his inner experience and therefore the rules over him. Alexander Vasilyevich's eyes looked forward abstractedly, like empty, but I knew that he saw all the way ahead and the whole nature, carrying us to meet us, - Even the sparrow, mounted from a ballast slope with the wind in the space of the car, even this sparrow attracted the eyes of Maltsev, And he turned his head for a moment following the Sparrow: What will be with him after us, where he flew. In our fault, we have never been late; On the contrary, we were often detained at intermediate stations that we must proceed with the go, because we went with a jig in time and by the delays were back into the chart. Usually we worked silently; Only occasionally Alexander Vasilyevich, without turning around in my direction, pounded the key around the boiler, wanting me to pay my attention to some non-stroke in the mode of operation of the car, or preparing me to a sharp change in this mode so that I was vigilant. I always understood the silent instructions of my senior comrade and worked with a complete zeal, but the mechanic still treated me, as well as to the Kochchegar lubricant, alienated and constantly checked on the parking lots of press oil, tightening the bolts in the drawing nodes, tested letters on leading Axes and other. If I have just looked around and smeared any working fussing part, then the Maltsev after me looked again and lubricated it, exactly not counting my work is valid. "I, ALEXANDER VASIL'EVICH, THIS CRATERKOPF already checked," I told him one day when he began to check this item after me. - And I myself want, - smiling, answered Maltsev, and in his smile there was sadness, struck me. Later, I understood the importance of his sadness and the reason for his constant indifference to us. He felt his superiority in front of us, because he understood the car more precisely than we, and he did not believe that I or whoever could learn the secret of his talent, the secret to see at the same time and a passing sparrow, and the signal ahead, feeling at the same time the path, The weight of the composition and effort of the car. Maltsev understood, of course, that in the diligence, in diligence, we can even overcome him, but did not imagine that we would like to love the locomotive anymore and it was better to drive it, "better, he thought it was impossible. And Maltsev so it was sad with us; He missed his talent, as from solitude, not knowing how we would express him so that we understand. And we, however, could not understand his skills. I asked once to allow the story to me on my own; Alexander Vasilyevich allowed me to drive a kilometers of forty and sat down at the place of assistant. I led the composition, and in twenty kilometers already had four minutes of late, and the exits from the protracted lifts overcame at a speed of no more than thirty kilometers per hour. After me, the car led Maltsev; He took rise at the speed of fifty kilometers, and he did not throw a car on the curves as I, and he soon caught up with my time.

The main hero of the story - Alexander Vasilyevich Maltsev - was considered the best locomotive driver in the depot. He was pleased, but young - about thirty years old - but already had the status of the first class machine. And no one was surprised when he was appointed for a new and very powerful passenger locomotive "IP". It was "wisely and right." Assistant Maltsev became a raz-tale. He was extremely pleased with the fact that he got on this Ma-Tire "IP" - the only one in the depot.

Maltsev did not show almost no feelings regarding the new assistant, although also intently watched his work. The narrator always struck the fact that after checking the car and her lubricant Maltsev, everything himself rechecked and lubricated again. On this oddity in the behavior of the driver, the narrator often annoyed, believed that he was simply not trusted, but then bother. Under the noise of the wheels, he forgot about his offense, enthusiastic appliances. Often he looked at how the Maltsev car is inspired. It looked like the actor game. Maltsev didn't watch Maltsev not only for the road, but managed to rejoice in the beauty of nature, and even a small sparrow, who fell into the Warning jet from the locomotive, did not slip away from his gaze.

Work has always happened silently. And only sometimes Maltsev tapping the key around the boiler, "wanting me to drew my attention to some non-trading in the mode of operation of the car ...". The narrator says that he worked very hard, but the driver's attitude towards him was exactly the same as to the Kochnar lubricant, and everything also thoroughly checked all the details for his in a power. Once, without holding away, the narrator asked Mal-Tsva, why he all rechecks behind him. "I myself want," the smile, answered Maltsev, and in his smile there was sadness, it was time for me. " Already then it became clear the reason for this sadness: "He felt his superiority before us, because he understood the car more precisely than we, and he did not believe that I or whoever could learn the secret of his talent, the secret to see at the same time and a passing sparrow, and a signal Ahead, feeling the path at the same moment, the weight of the composition and effort of the car. " So he was just boring alone with his talent.

One day, the narrator asked Maltsev to allow him to be a lot of taking a car, but in his turns there was a car-lo, the lifters were slowly slow, and quite soon it was late for four minutes. As soon as the control passed at the hand of the driver himself, the lateness was notified.

The narrator worked for about a year at Maltsev, when a tragic story happened ... Maltsev car took the composition at eight and ten passenger axes, which were already late for three hours. Maltsev's task was to reduce this time as much as possible, at least for an hour.

Touched on the road. The car worked almost at the limit, and the speed was not less than ninety kilometers per hour.

The train was going towards a huge cloud, inside which all clouds and sparkled lightning. Soon the driver of the driver captured the whirlwind of dust, almost nothing was visible. Lightning suddenly hit: "Instant blue light flashed at my eyelashes and penetrated to me to the nastrophed heart; I grabbed the crane of Inzhkto-RA, but the pain in the heart has already moved away from me. " The narrator looked at Maltsev: He did not even change in his face. As it turned out, he did not see lightning.

Soon the train passed the shower, which began after the zipper, and went to the steppe. The narrator noted that Maltsev became worse to drive the car: the train threw the train, the speed was dried, then sharply rose. Apparently, the driver is just tired.

Busy facilities in electrical devices, the narrator did not notice that the train rushes under the red warning signals. So the wheels have already stood on the petardam. "We are Petard Davim!" - screamed the storyteller and reached for control. "Away!" - exclaimed Maltsev and pressed on the brakes.

The locomotive stopped. Mezh in ten of it is another locomotive, his driver, with all his mow, waved a red stall to the poker, feeding the signal. This meant that at the time, while the narrator turned away, the Maltsev drove first under the temper, then under the red semaphore, and it was not known for any other signals. Why didn't he stopped? "Kostya! Alexander Vasilyevich called me.

I approached him. - Kostya! What is there ahead of us? - I explained the Nile to him.

The narrator brought the depressed Maltsev to the house. Near at home he asked him to leave him alone. He answered on the objection of the story: "Now I see, go home ..." And indeed, he saw his wife came out to meet him. Kostya decided to check it and asked if his wife was covered with his wife, or not. And having received the right answer, left the driver.

Maltsev was given to court. The narrator tried with all his might justify his boss. But the fact that the Maltsev posed not only his life, but also the lives of thousands of people, could not forgive him. Why did the blind Maltsev not transferred to the other? Why did you risk?

The same questions will ask the storyteller and Maltsev.

"I used to see the light, and I thought I saw him, and I saw him only in my mind, in imagination. In fact, I was blind, but I did not know that. I did not believe in the Petard, although I heard them: I thought that he glanced. And when you gave a beep stop and shouted to me, I saw a green signal ahead, I did not immediately guessed. " With understanding, the narrator to the words of Mal'tsev took. Material from site.

The following year, the narrator gives the exams by the driver. Each time, leaving on the road, checking the car, he sees Mal-Tsva, sitting, on a painted bench. He relied on the cane and turned his face with empty blind eyes in a hundred-rone of the fervor. "Away!" - Only he said to all sorts of attempts, the ki of the storytellor to console him. But once Kostya offered Mal-Tsev to go with him: "Tomorrow Ten thirty I will lead the composition. If you sit quietly, I will take you into the car. " Maltsev agreed.

The next day, the narrator invited Maltsev on Masha, well. The blind was ready to obey, so he humbly promised to touch anything, but only obey. One hand put his driver on the reverse, and the other - on the brake lever, and on top of polo-lived his hands to help. On the way back went the same way. Already on the approach to the destination, the narrator saw the yellow traffic light, but decided to check his teacher and walked on the yellow in full swing.

"I see yellow light," said Maltsev. "Or maybe you just imagine that you see the light!" - answered the story chick. Then the Maltsev turned his face to him and cried.

He brought the car to the end without help. In the evening, the narrator went with Maltsev to him home and could not leave him one for a long time, "as a native son, without protection against the action of the surrounding and hostile forces of our beautiful and fierce world."

Summary of Aitmatov First teacher

The tale of a talented Kyrgyz writer tells an interesting life history of the seasons of the USSR. Very often, it is perceived as the promotion of communist ideas, but the thinking reader is worth looking deeper to understand the main idea.

The time when the story "in the beautiful and violent world" was created ("Maltsee") (1938), was restless: the country lived in the foreboding of the war. Literature was supposed to answer the question of what kind of people are located to reflect the military threat. A. Platonov in his story gave this answer: "The key to the victory is the soul of the people." The basis of the plot was the peripetics of the life path of the driver of the Maltsev steam locomotive. This man during a thunderstorm from the impact of lightning lost sight and, without noticing this, almost caused a train crash, which led. After that, his eyesight returned to the driver. I could not explain anything, Maltsev was convicted and went to jail. Assistant Maltseva offered the investigator to simulate a lightning strike in laboratory conditions. The investigator did that. The innocence of the driver was proven. However, after the experience of Maltsev again lost vision finally, as he thought. At the end of the story, fate smiled at the hero: he again acquires eyesight.

The work is not so much about the tests, but about how people are overcome. Maltsev - a man of a high romantic spirit. He considers his work by majestic vocation, told human happiness. Hero A. Platonova - the poet of his profession. The locomotive under his control turns into the similarity of the subtlest musical instrument, obedient will of the artist. Beautiful and fierce world surrounds Maltsev. But the world of the soul of this man is just as beautiful.

Anyone can lose physical vision. But far from any will be able to stay in the grief in vain. The "spiritual vision" of Maltsev did not disappear for a moment. It seems that his recovery at the end of the story is a legitimate award to the person to the winner.

But despite the fact that the story has a subtitle "Martsener", A. Platonov reveals in the work and other human stories. Interesting the fate of the storyteller. This is a novice railwayman, an assistant driver. He witnessed drama when Maltsev lost sight of his eyesight. He also, a storytellor, had to save this man: Assistant Machinist talks with the investigator, watches with pain, how Maltsev suffers, deprived of the opportunity to engage in love. The narrator turns out to be next to the Maltsev per minute when the vision returned to the driver.

The mastery of the writer is manifested in the image of circumstances, in the ability to show the spiritual evolution of the consciousness of the hero. The narrator admits: "I was not a friend of Maltsev, and he always treated me without attention and care." But it is difficult to believe in this phrase: just a narrator can not overcome modesty and say out loud about the tenderness of his soul. The final words of the story reveal all the beautiful and fierce world of the soul, which Maltsev lives, and the narrator. When it became clear that Maltsev was called, "... he turned his face to me and cried. I approached him and kissed him in response: - We have a car to the end, Alexander Vasilyevich: You see the whole world now! " Having said "All Light! ", The narrator seemed to be included in the concept of" light "and the spiritual beauty of Maltsev: the driver won not only external circumstances, but also his inner doubts.
