Winged expressions from the story Taras Bulba (50 expressions)

One of the most famous works of Nikolai Gogol is the story “Taras Bulba”, which very accurately describes the traditions and life of the Cossacks. This story brought many new expressions into the world, which became very closely integrated into the traditions of everyday communication. The most striking example of them is “Be patient, Cossack, you will be an ataman,” which is used when they want to dull someone else’s pain from something. This section contains catchphrases from the story Taras Bulba.

What, son, did your Poles help you?

It’s really impossible to invent something smarter than what the whole people invented.

If a person falls in love, then he is like a sole, which, if you soak it in water, bend it, and it will bend.

Be patient, Cossack, you will be an ataman!

Be patient, Cossack, and you will be an ataman! Not the good warrior who hasn’t lost his spirit in an important matter, but the good warrior who doesn’t get bored even with idleness, who will endure everything, and even if you want him, he’ll still get his way.

The Fatherland is what our soul seeks, what is dearer to it than anything else. My homeland is you.

There was no craft that a Cossack did not know: to smoke wine, equip a cart, grind gunpowder, do blacksmithing and plumbing work and, in addition to that, go wild, drink and revel as only a Russian can - all this was his thing. shoulder.

The future is unknown, and it stands before a person like autumn fog rising from the swamps.

How can it happen that a person who is idle does not get drunk?

A bullet hit him right under his heart, but the old man gathered all his spirit and said: “It’s not a pity to part with the light. May God grant everyone such a death! Let the Russian land be glorified until the end of the century!” And Bovdyugov’s soul rushed to the heights to tell the long-departed elders how they knew how to fight on Russian soil and, even better than that, how they knew how to die in it for the holy faith.

It is not yet great wisdom to say a reproachful word, but it is great wisdom to say a word that, without mocking a person’s misfortune, would encourage him and give him spirit.

The first duty and first honor of a Cossack is to maintain comradeship. No matter how long I live, I have never heard, gentlemen-brothers, of a Cossack leaving somewhere or selling his comrade in any way.

No, brothers, to love like a Russian soul - to love not just with your mind or anything else, but with everything that God has given, whatever is in you, but ... - said Taras, and waved his hand, and shook his gray head, and He blinked his mustache and said: “No, no one can love like that!”

No matter how strong good old wine is in itself and no matter how capable it is of strengthening a person’s spirit, if a decent word is added to it, then the strength of both the wine and the spirit will be twice as strong.

Appearance of the youngest son

In Bulba's family, the youngest is handsome and surprisingly similar to the sophistication of features that attract the gaze of women. The epithets that the author selects for him distinguish Andriy from all the male images of the literary work:

“...more beautiful than everyone else...”; “... the most spirited of all, the most beautiful of all...”;

“... tanned cheeks shone with the brightness of virgin fire...”

The young Cossack has black hair,

“delicately tousled curls.”

Eyebrows as black as a dark Ukrainian night, velvety skin, pale and intelligent, confirming the nobility of blood. A tall and strong young man, 21-22 years old. If you know the size of a fathom, it turns out that the Cossack is taller than 2 meters (2.13 m). Everyone admires his build: his father, brother, beautiful Polish woman, mother and author. His attractiveness intensifies as a man begins to mature:

“...facial features...have now become menacing and strong...”; “... the Cossack body breathed with strength ...”

personality traits “...acquired the broad strength of a lion...”.

A handsome young man dresses interestingly: a copper-colored headdress, a fashionable women's scarf tied on his wrist, red morocco boots, silver horseshoes on his heels. The bloomers are so wide that the author compares them to the Black Sea in terms of width, the iridescence of the folds, and the shine of the fabric. The strap that holds them is embroidered with gold threads and decorated with various trinkets and decorations.

Andriy Bulba - man

The love of a beauty becomes the most important feeling for a man. He is so absorbed in love that he cannot really evaluate events. Andriy falls out of the entire system of male characters - strong and passionate about wars and battles. The guy’s heart melted at the women’s words. The thirst for love and the need for feelings appeared at the age of 18. The name of the Polish woman replaced all his dear names. Love settled in the soul and became a meaning from which the Cossack could not escape. A man abandons his father, brother, and comrades. Andriy intends to fight against everyone for his feelings. Not all readers have the desire to condemn the guy; many feel sorry for him and an incomprehensible attitude of compassion settles in their heads. Impossible to help. How many parallels can be drawn when understanding a man’s love:

  • difference of religions;
  • country borders.

A person is looking for his half, but it may turn out to be inaccessible and unattainable.

Andriy dies at the hands of Taras Bulba, his father. He does not resist his father and humbly accepts his fate. The father looks at the beauty of his dead son and regrets what happened, about such an excellent Cossack, but who betrayed his Fatherland.

Andriy - son

The younger one is inventive, cunning and practical at the same time. He acquires leadership traits from birth. The mind helps him build tactics to avoid punishment and hide his real feelings. He learns easily and admires music. To understand educational concepts, he does not need to try and strain. The handsome man is a real descendant of the family, who has adopted and absorbed the bright personality traits of the head of the house and the sensuality of his mother:

Pride.

The guy can't imagine the situation where he

“...will be given into captivity alive...”

Courage.

Crazy courage and bravery:

“...Ukraine will not see...the bravest of its children who undertook to defend it...”

Physical strength.

It is impossible to describe the power of the Cossack in words. The author suggests understanding how strong he is with these lines:

“...with insane courage he grabbed the rear wheel with his powerful hand and stopped the car...”

Andriy adopted from his mother the traits of a kind person who is capable of compassion for others (

“...moved by compassion, he threw him one piece of bread...”

- this is how Andriy behaves in a besieged city of enemies). He feels sorry for his mother, the guy loves to be alone, silence and harmony with himself.
