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

We are attracted to the story primarily by the depiction of universal human feelings and passions: love and deceit, fidelity and betrayal.

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

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

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

The idyllically 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 flighty.” The simple-minded old woman sincerely fell in love with Lisa's new acquaintance. She could not even think that they would end in disaster - she believed too much in the prudence of her daughter and the nobility of the young nobleman. Lisa also believed in Erast. “Ah, Erast! - she said. “Will you always love me?” - “Always, dear Lisa, always!” - he answered. And Lisa did not demand vows, did not doubt the sincerity of her beloved. endowed the girl with the richest gift - the ability to love. "Oh! I would sooner 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 and 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 this 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 gives up his love. An illiterate peasant woman, Lisa turned out to be nobler, taller, and better than the educated nobleman Erast.

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

What is the true, deep reason for the death of poor Lisa? 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 it is the meaning of life. The author makes us even today think about the imperfection of a society in which moral values ​​are replaced by material ones. Living according to the laws of the heart, Karamzin believes, means living in accordance with the moral law.

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

I. The relevance of N. M. Karamzin’s story “Poor Liza” at all times. II. True and false values ​​in the story. the death of poor Lisa. “He probably believed this 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 gives up his love. An illiterate peasant woman, Lisa turned out to be nobler, taller, and better than the educated nobleman Erast. 1. Work, honesty, kindness of soul are the main moral values ​​of Lisa’s family. 2. Money as the main value in Erast’s life.

We will prove this based on one of the characteristics of sentimentalism - the affirmation of the rich inner world of representatives of the lower classes, in this case it is Lisa and the depravity of the aristocracy opposed to this - here - Erast.

Lisa is an ordinary peasant woman. Her father died, and after that her mother became seriously ill, and Lisa had to take over the entire household: "... Liza alone, not sparing her tender youth, not sparing her rare beauty, worked day and night - weaving canvases, knitting stockings ", in the spring I picked flowers, and in the summer I took berries - and sold them in Moscow." At the same time, the girl did not complain about her “fate”; she accepted it with gratitude: “God gave me hands to work with,” said Lisa...”. And this speaks of the kindness of her heart, nobility and hard work. The girl is a peasant - poor financially, but has such a rich inner world. Erast is the complete opposite of her.

He is a rich nobleman. As the author writes, “with a fair mind and a kind heart,” but “weak and flighty”: “He led an absent-minded life, thought only about his own pleasure, looked for it in secular amusements, but often did not find it: he was bored and complained about his fate.” . This gives us the right to say that Erast is a flighty young man, accustomed to all sorts of entertainment for his person.

Attitude to life situations and the problems are different in different social strata. This can be observed in all of the above. For Lisa it was not a problem or a disaster that she was not at all easy job the whole family, that she alone needs to do this: take care of her mother, do housework, earn money. While Erast is bored and complains about his “sweet” fate, that he has run out of entertainment and nothing gives him true pleasure. So we examined one side of the social issue, from which the moral issue also emerged. We can summarize that depending on what social class you belong to, how globally or, on the contrary, how small you look at this or that problem.

But let's look at this from the other side. Lisa is a peasant woman with a pure girlish heart. She experiences every feeling that fills her chest hard and for a long time. After meeting with Erast, she slept poorly: “The new guest of her soul, the image of Erast, appeared so vividly to her that she woke up almost every minute, woke up and sighed.” At this time, Erast treated Lisa and falling in love with her as just another temporary entertainment: “... he thought and decided - at least for a while - to leave the big world.” Lisa fell in love with Erast with all her heart and gave herself entirely to the feeling. Erast, it would seem, too, but no. When he needed money and lost his own, he abandoned poor Lisa and married for convenience. He neglected the feelings of “his shepherdess,” which ruined her. And here we saw what the inner world and values ​​of the peasants were like and how morally corrupt the aristocrat was.

N. M. Karamzin in his work examined the problems of social strata and levels of morality. The author showed the contrast between the lower and upper strata, demonstrating in reality the morality of both.

The world of human feelings is great and beautiful, great riches are stored in it, but dangers lurk in it. Can you love? Can you always be responsible for your movements? Is reason always the king of your feelings?
