Growing up as a child “by leaps and bounds,” he strove to become wise, and from the age of 12 he led a military squad. I. Bilibin “Volga”

Slide 21

Mikula Selyaninovich

This hero is not a warrior, but a plowman. In the old way - oratay. Mother Earth loves him and helps him, so the peasant Mikula can put both Svyatogor and Volga to shame. Mikula personifies the forces of the people: today he works peacefully on the arable land, and tomorrow, if enemies come to the Russian land, he will take up the sword. E. Kibrik “Mikula Selyaninovich” I. Bilibin “Volga and Mikula”

Slide 22

Represents calm and self-confident strength. E. Kibrik “Ilya Muromets”

Slide 24

According to researchers, the prototype of the people's favorite hero was a historical figure - a strongman nicknamed Chobotok, originally from Murom, who became a monk at the Kiev Pechersk Lavra and canonized. His incorruptible relics are kept in the Near Caves of the Lavra.

Slide 25

Thanks to modern scientific methods, a reconstruction of Ilya’s appearance was carried out. Its results confirmed many information about the hero of the epics: he had a heroic physique, tall stature and until the age of 33 could not move due to spinal paralysis.

Slide 26

Alesha Popovich

The son of a priest from the city of Rostov during the heroic service surprises not so much with his strength as with his daring, resourcefulness, and cunning. A quick-witted mind sometimes helps this mischievous mockingbird more than a treasure sword. K. Vasiliev “Alyosha Popovich and the beautiful maiden”

Slide 27

V. Vasnetsov “Bogatyrs”

Slide 28

Sadko

The historical prototype of the hero was the Novgorod merchant Sadko Sytinets. The epic Sadko is a merchant, a traveler, who can play the harp remarkably well. K. Vasiliev “Sadko and the Lord of the Sea”

Slide 34

Composition

Stylistic framing, not related to the plot, creates a general mood: How high is the height of heaven, How deep is the depth of the Akyan-sea, How wide is the expanse throughout the whole earth, How deep are the waters of Neprovsky... the chorus of M. Shrilev “Skomorokhs”

Slide 35

The first obligatory part of the plot (tells about the birth of the hero, his acquisition of strength; it talks about the place of action, about where the hero leaves from): In the glorious great Novograd A, Buslay lived until he was ninety years old... the beginning of M. Shrilev’s “Morning of Novgorod” Great"

Slide 36

traditional formulas, almost without changes, passing from one epic to another: And then the Nightingale whistles like a nightingale, He screams, a villain-robber, like an animal... And Alyoshenka roared like an animal, Alyosha hissed like -snake... commonplaces

Epics

Bylinas are Russian folk epic songs about the exploits of heroes. The basis of the plot of the epic is some heroic event, or a remarkable episode of Russian history (hence the popular name of the epic - “starina”, “old woman”, implying that the action in question took place in the past). Epics are usually written in tonic verse with two to four stresses. The term “epics” was first introduced by Ivan Sakharov in the collection “Songs of the Russian People” in 1839; he proposed it based on the expression “according to epics” in “The Tale of Igor’s Campaign,” which meant “according to the facts.”

Historicism At the center of many Russian epics stands a figure Prince of Kyiv Vladimir, who can be identified with Vladimir II Monomakh (prince 1113-1125). Ilya Muromets is mentioned in the 13th century in the Norwegian "Saga of Thidrek" and the German poem "Ortnit", and in 1594 the German traveler Erich Lassota saw his tomb in the St. Sophia Cathedral in Kyiv. Alyosha Popovich served with the Rostov princes, then moved to Kyiv and died in the battle on the Kalka River. The Novgorod Chronicle tells how Stavr Godinovich incurred the wrath of Vladimir Monomakh and was drowned for robbing two citizens of Novgorod; another version of the same chronicle says that he was exiled. Danube Ivanovich is often mentioned in the chronicles of the 13th century as one of the servants of Prince Vladimir Vasilkovich, and Sukhman Dolmantyevich (Odikhmantyevich) was identified with the Pskov prince Domant (Dovmont).

For a long time, epics were not written down until famous scientists Pavel Nikolaevich Rybnikov (1832-1885) and Alexander Fedorovich Hilferding (1831-1872) became interested in them. More than 200 epic texts were included in the four-volume “Songs collected by P. N. Rybnikov.” A.F. Hilferding published 318 epics. Hilferding, Alexander Fedorovich

Images of Russian heroes and knights are widely reflected in creativity famous figures art, for example, Mikhail Alexandrovich Vrubel - decorative panel“Bogatyr”, or Viktor Mikhailovich Vasnetsov - “Bogatyrs” (a painting that he painted for almost twenty years). Mikhail Vrubel. Bogatyr. 1898.

Victor Vasnetsov. Bogatyrs on horseback. 1896.

Epics are divided into works of the pre-Christian and Christian periods. The pre-Christian cycle includes tales about Svyatogor, Mikita Selyaninovich, Volga, which belong to the so-called “wandering stories” rooted in the commonality of religious and cult elements of pre-Christian Europe. The Baptism of Rus' and the era of the holy Equal-to-the-Apostles Prince Vladimir became the core of an extensive Christian epic cycle, which is based on reliable historical events and personalities. Andrey Ryabushkin. A feast of heroes at the affectionate Prince Vladimir. 1888.

The group of heroes associated with Prince Vladimir and the city of Kiev is divided into senior and junior. Victor Vasnetsov. Knight at a crossroads. 1878.

Only Svyatogor, Volga Svyatoslavich and Mikula Selyaninovich are considered senior heroes; adds Samson, Sukhan and then Polkan, Kolyvan Ivanovich, Ivan Kolyvanovich, Samson Ivanovich, Samson Samoilovich and Molofer or Malafey; Don Ivanovich and Danube Ivanovich are also added. Bogatyrs personify various natural phenomena: older heroes - formidable phenomena, hostile to people, occurring during winter; so, for example, in the image of Svyatogor the gigantic clouds that cover the entire sky are personified; younger heroes are also natural phenomena, but beneficial for humans, occurring in the summer; the walking Kaliki are wandering clouds shedding rain; Initially, both of them were represented as deities, but some were their elder generation, titans, destroyers, and others were protectors of people.

"Svyatogor". 1942 Nicholas Konstantinovich Roerich

"Samson" - the central fountain of the Peterhof palace and park ensemble

Younger heroes Younger heroes are divided into native and visiting; the latter include: Solovey Budimirovich, Churilo Plenkovich, Duke Stepanovich and others. Some scientists divide the heroes into types belonging to the pre-Tatar, Tatar and post-Tatar era, or Moscow: to the first group they include Dobrynya Nikitich, Ivan Danilovich and Alyosha Popovich; to the second: the heroes at the outpost, Idolishche, Ilya Muromets, Vasily Ignatievich and the heroes who “transferred”; to the third: Mikulu Selyaninovich, Khoten Bludovich, Churil Plenkovich, Dyuk Stepanovich, Danil Lovchenin, forty caliks with a calico, Solovy Budimirovich. In addition, the heroes are divided into only Vladimir himself, Dobrynya, as well as Volga Svyatoslavich, Stavr Godinovich, Ivan Danilovich, Churil Plenkovich and partly Ivan Godinovich.
