The very subtitle of the story “The Pantry of the Sun (Fairy Tale)” forces the reader to pay attention to the genre of the work. “The Fairy Tale” was created in such a way that it intertwines the real and the fabulous, and this happens at all levels and at the linguistic level, because the work clearly traces folklore motifs in the construction of the narrative, in descriptions, in vocabulary, and at the plot level, when motive for saving the hero from certain death ( fairy tale motif) is played out by the writer in such a way that this salvation does not cause the reader the slightest doubt about its authenticity; and in the images of the heroes - Nastya, Mitrasha, old man Antipych, the dog Travka there is a lot of fairy tale characters- It is no coincidence that the narrator compares Nastya with the Golden Hen, and Mitrash has the nickname “Little Man in a Bag”.

However, there is a clear connection with fairy world does not turn the story “The Pantry of the Sun” into a stylization, Prishvin creates a completely original work in both genre and visual terms, which describes the amazing and at the same time quite real, sometimes even “mundane” adventures of orphaned children who, however, live just as not every adult will be able to live in such difficult circumstances in which they found themselves after “their mother died of illness and their father died in the Patriotic War.”

Prishvin in his work “Pantry of the Sun” shows children who live adult life, he lovingly describes Nastya’s thriftiness, Mitrasha’s skill, he openly admires his heroes: “And what smart kids they were! ... there was not a single house where they lived and worked as friendly as our favorites lived.” The writer with great knowledge of the matter describes how Mitrasha makes wooden dishes; he admires Nastya, who, despite her age, behaves like an adult housewife. But, at the same time, children remain children, and the constant squabbles between brother and sister, during which most often Mitrash tries to prove that he is “the boss in the house,” are also sweet to the author, he sees in them genuine relationships between a brother and sister who love each other very much, between whom there is “such a beautiful equality.”

The characters' personalities are also revealed in the way they gather for cranberries. The thoroughness, the seriousness of the preparations, the brother’s story about the “Palestine” that his father once spoke about, the hope that they will be able to find this “unknown to anyone, where the sweet cranberries grow” - and the ridiculous dispute, as a result of which the brother and sister Let's each go our own way in the forest...

Prishvin is wonderful at describing nature. In the "Pantry of the Sun" nature becomes independent actor, she lives her life, but she also in a special way“tuned” to the lives of the heroes. When Mitrasha and Nastya parted, went in different directions, “Then the gray darkness moved in tightly and covered the entire sun with its life-giving rays. An evil wind blew very sharply. The trees intertwined with roots, piercing each other with branches, growled, howled, groaned throughout the Bludovo swamp ". This is how nature expresses its attitude to what is happening and, as it were, predicts that the heroes will face further trials.

The image of old Antipych was created in fairy-tale traditions: the hero is very old, he does not say how old he is, his speech is full of riddles, he knows how to talk to his dog Grass, he keeps certain secrets that cannot be conveyed to just anyone, to comprehend them a person must certain prepare in a way. Dying, he trusts Travka with his main secret- relationships between living beings must be built on love, this love must be mutual, it must come to the rescue when living beings need help. It is interesting that Prishvin speaks not only about relationships between people, because it is no coincidence that he calls the death of Antipych a “terrible misfortune” in the life of Travka, who cannot forget her owner and is constantly looking for him, eventually finding him in Mitrash.” little Antipych,” whom she saved from death in the swamp.

Mitrasha found himself in trouble because he relied on himself and forgot about folk wisdom, “Not knowing the ford, I left the beaten human path and climbed straight into Blind Yelan.” The boy, “sensing danger, stopped and thought about his situation,” but was too late and “felt himself tightly engulfed on all sides to the very chest” by a quagmire that would never have let him go if Grass had not come to his aid.

If Mitrasha left the “human path” because of arrogance, then Nastya was taken away from her... by unconscious greed - the girl walked and walked “for cranberries”, and did not notice how she ended up where “people don’t go.” It is noteworthy that, having realized this, she was afraid not for herself, but for her brother, and her desperate cry was heard by Mitrash, who was dying in the swamp. Nastya reproaches herself for her greed, and this moment is one of the most touching in the story.

An understanding was not immediately established between Mitrash and Travka, but after the boy called the dog that saved him from the quagmire, he was transformed in her eyes, he “shaken off the dirt from his rags and, like a real big man, authoritatively ordered..." - for Travka, he became her owner: "With a squeal of joy, recognizing the owner, she threw herself on his neck..." In moments of mortal danger, Mitrasha behaved like an adult, and Living being recognized his right to be called a master - he became truly strong. Confirmation of this is that he manages to kill a seasoned predator, and this turns out to be surprising for people who “gave up their business for a while and gathered, and not only from their village, but even from neighboring villages... And it’s hard to say Who did they look at more - the wolf or the hunter in a cap with a double visor?

The children turned out to be not just wonderful children, the trials they went through revealed new, completely adult qualities, wonderful character traits. Nastya gave away all the cranberries, which almost led her astray life path, evacuated Leningrad children, and this was already a completely adult, conscious act that raised the girl even higher in the eyes of the storytellers. Although the author reports that the story is told on behalf of the geologists who discovered peat reserves in the “Pantry of the Sun,” the reader understands that the author of the work expresses his own life position what he admires young heroes, in whom there is so much warmth, humanity, self-esteem, who feel the natural world so subtly and are such worthy representatives of the human world.

Konstantin Paustovsky called Prishvin “a herb of the Russian language.” Tenderness and love for nature is felt in every line of the writer. In the story “Pantry of the Sun” Prishvin describes the nature of the eastern part of the Oryol region, simple and a little harsh. Against this background, all the wonderful qualities of the earth appear more clearly; it seems that nature itself is spiritualized, that it participates in the fate of the main characters, Nastya and Mitrasha.

From the very first line of the story we meet children whose lives are entirely connected with nature, the earth, and the forest. Orphans Nastya and Mitrash run a simple household and manage everything themselves. The earth and forest feed them, and children do not miss the opportunity to use their gifts, the “pantry of the sun.” When Nastya and Mitrash go for cranberries, we follow the guys and get acquainted with incredible world Russian forest and its heroes. We gradually forget that Prishvin’s characters are not people, but animals, birds, trees and grass, the river and the wind, they are so spiritual in the story. Each has its own character and habits: magpies argue with crows, the river brutally deals with the trees, winning a place for itself, the wind sings and carries seeds.

The rocks, birds, and wolves even have their own names, and each has a role to play in the story. Some characters are kind to people, some look indifferently at little people walking through the forest about their business, but some can destroy, and only friendship, ingenuity and mutual assistance allow Nastya and Mitrasha to avoid danger. One involuntarily recalls the words of the writer himself: “If even the wild swamps alone witnessed your victory, then they too will flourish with extraordinary beauty - and spring will remain in you forever.” Prishvin shows Russian nature as a mother-nurse, storyteller and teacher. The guys learn their lessons and understand that the “pantry of the sun” is opened only to those who have hard work and courage go hand in hand with caution and prudence. There is something amazing in Mikhail Mikhailovich Prishvin’s view of the earth, nature and people. He sees the world as if for the first time, as in childhood. And from this the forest begins to talk to a person, if he is able to hear it. And I am very happy that we can again and again immerse ourselves in this world and communicate with its heroes.

M. M. Prishvin entered literature not only as a talented writer, but also as an ethnographer, geographer, and cosmographer. However, his works were not in demand in Soviet society. Ideal for the literature of that time were works full of high civil and revolutionary pathos, saturated with the socialist slogans of those years. Prishvin's work was considered an attempt to get away from real life, from solving pressing problems to building a bright future. Prishvin's discovery as talented artist words took place only in last decades. Today he is one of the most unsolved writers.

The nature of his work had a huge influence on all his work. native land. Was born future writer on the Khrushchevo estate. It was here that he learned to listen and hear the sounds of nature, its sometimes quiet and sometimes loud speech. Prishvin was very gifted with hearing “for the whistling of birds, the breathing of grass and the murmuring of animals.” He tried his best to convey the voice of nature, to translate it into human language. We are amazed at this ability of his while reading the story “The Pantry of the Sun.”

The plot of this work is quite simple. This is a story about the life and adventures of two little children who were left orphans during difficult times. post-war years. But Prishvin wraps his characters in such a poetic shell that everything that happens becomes like a fairy tale. This is exactly the genre Prishvin chooses for his work - a fairy tale. The concept of “fairy tale” will become central in Prishvin’s work in the 20-50s. For the writer, this concept was a form of artistic storytelling in which he could freely embody his ideals and depict the immutable laws of nature. In “Pantry of the Sun” he creates the image of an ideal village where everyone lives peacefully, amicably, okay. And the small family - brother Mitrasha and sister Nastya - are everyone’s favorites, they are two little suns.

“Nastya was like the Golden Hen on high legs. Her hair, neither dark nor light, shimmered with gold, and the freckles all over her face were large, like gold coins. Only one nose was clean and looked up. Mitrasha was two years younger than his sister. He was a stubborn and strong boy. “A little man in a bag,” the teachers at school called him smiling among themselves. “The little man in the bag,” like Nastya, was covered in golden freckles, and his nose, clean, like his sister’s, looked up.” The author lovingly describes his characters and gives them cute names. And this also somewhat resembles a fairy tale.

And so our little heroes set off on a long journey to a Palestinian woman, whom they know about from their father’s stories. This is reminiscent of the saying: “go there, I don’t know where.” Children find themselves in a huge fairyland, where every bush, every bird has the ability to speak and think. The author places us in the wonderful world of nature, while he tries his best to show the kinship of man with this natural world: “Poor birds and little animals, how they all suffered, trying to pronounce some common beautiful word! And even children, as simple as Nastya and Mitrasha, understood their effort. They all wanted to say just one beautiful word. You can see how the bird sings on the branch, and every feather trembles with effort. But still, they cannot say words like we do, and they have to sing, shout, and tap.

- Tek-tek! – a huge bird, the capercaillie, taps barely audibly dark forest.

- Shvark-shwark! – a wild drake flew in the air over the river.

- Quack-quack! – wild mallard duck on the lake.

- Gu-gu-gu. - a beautiful bullfinch bird on a birch tree.”

The author appears here as a person with a keen ear, capable of hearing and understanding the wonderful language of birds, plants and animals. Prishvin uses a wide variety of means of artistic expression. But the most important technique with the help of which the heroes of the natural world come to life on the pages of the work is personification. In the fairy tale, not only animals, but also birds and even trees had the ability to think. These are raven and crow talking, and cranes announcing the coming of the sun and its sunset, and the groan of fused pine and spruce.

Nature is not inactive, it actively comes to the aid of man. The old women-fir-trees also warn Mitrash about the trouble; they try in vain to block his path to the destructive fir-tree. And the black raven scares him with its cry. What can we say about the smart, quick-witted and devoted dog Travka!

Thus, main topic in were - the theme of the unity of man and nature. In his works, Prishvin “condenses goodness,” he embodies his ideals and thereby calls on readers to goodness.

Today in class we will analyze episodes from M.M. Prishvin’s story “The Pantry of the Sun.” Write down the date and topic of the lesson “The moral essence of the relationship between Nastya and Mitrasha.” To begin with, we will remember the peculiarity of Prishvin’s work, what did he build his work around? (Nature and man, there is a relationship)

III. Work on the content of the work.

1. Literary duel.

Your goal is to quickly and correctly answer the questions I asked.

1. In what year was the fairy tale written? (In 1945)
2. Who is Antipych? (Forester)

9. On whose behalf is the story of “The Pantry of the Sun” told? (Scouts of swamp wealth)
10. Author of the work. (Mikhail Prishvin)

2. Frontal conversation with elements of selective text reading and retelling.

1) How do you see the main characters of the fairy tale? Let's try to make a cluster about the internal traits of Mitrasha and Nastya.

3) Why does he call them “Golden Hen” and “little man in a bag”?

(The affectionate nickname “golden hen” gives Nastya’s description a fairy-tale charm. The effect is enhanced by diminutive suffixes in the words: “chicken”, “legs”, “coins”, “nose”, “clean”, “freckles”. Mitrasha is described differently. The main thing in his description is his masculine, strong-willed qualities. The nickname “Little Man in a Bag” means that Mitrasha, although still small, already has the qualities of a “peasant.”)

(The children had no time to play and have fun. Caring for a large household, “about all living beings” fell on their shoulders. The author both admires and is proud of them: “But did our children cope with such a misfortune during the difficult years of the Patriotic War!”)

(The author compares the children with the actions of their parents. Nastya, “like her late mother,” “would get up far before the sun,” “drive out her beloved flock,” light the stove, cook dinner, “busy about the house until nightfall.” Mitrash “learned from his father “make wooden utensils, “all the men’s household and social affairs rest on him. He attends all meetings, tries to understand public concerns.”)

Let’s read a short dialogue at the beginning of the story. (p. 121 from the words “Very good...” to the words “... or plant potatoes.”)

6) How does this dialogue help to understand the characters of the brother and sister?

(Children imitate the behavior of their parents. Mitrasha remembers “how his father taught his mother” and tries to teach Nastya. Nastya behaves like her late mother: she does not argue with Mitrasha, smiles, he “begins to get angry and swagger.” Nastya first teases, then affectionately strokes his brother on the back of the head. The little squabble ends in reconciliation and friendly work.)

Let's read the role-by-role dialogue in the episode “Nastya and Mitrash are going for cranberries.” (p. 123 “Nastya, starting to get ready, ... where sweet cranberries grow”).

7) What role does this dialogue play in the subsequent narrative?

(Nastya inattentively listened to her brother when he talked about the “Palestinian” in the forest. She has her own, female, household concerns, she makes sure that they are well-fed on the road. Mitrasha has already decided that he will go look for the Palestinian. He is a man, researcher, looking for new ways. This is how the conflict of the narrative is outlined.)

8)What event is the plot of the story?

(An argument, and then a quarrel between the guys, which almost led to tragedy. Reasonable Nastya tried to convince her brother to follow a wide, dense path, but Mitrasha became stubborn and went “on his own, along his own path.” At this point Nastya got angry, and so It turned out that the guys went different ways.)

10) What role does nature play in the development of events?

Teacher's comment:

The fornication swamp seems alarming, dangerous, scary place. Nature itself here frightens not only humans, but also animals. Let's pay attention to how the fox's anxiety and fear are shown: diminutive suffixes in its description make it small and defenseless.

Here, a dog and a wolf are contrasted - a friend and an enemy of a person: “a feral dog... howled with longing for a man, and the wolf howled with unparalleled anger towards him.” It was here, in this bad place, that Nastya and Mitrasha, cranberry hunters, came.

Nature foretells evil. Another signal about the approaching discord between brother and sister is a cloud that is “like a cold blue arrow... crossed the rising sun in half.”

The wind adds to the anxiety, because of which “the pine groaned” and “the spruce growled.”

11) What is the meaning of the parable about the fate of the pine and spruce?

(Two trees, doomed to live together, are described as living beings. Large trees should have grown independently, separately from each other. They grew together, but they are separated, do not help each other, wanting to assert themselves at the expense of the other. The meaning of the parable is that people should help each other, support each other.

CONCLUSION: So, we examined the relationships of the heroes, the author’s attitude towards the children, dialogues that help reveal the characters’ characters, the composition of the work, the role of nature in the development of events.

III. Pupils retell episodes at will, complementing each other.

Episode 1 - “Mitrasha in Trouble.”

How does nature warn the boy about danger?

(“The ground under your feet has become like a hammock suspended under a muddy abyss” - there is already anxiety in this. The old Christmas trees scare Mitrash, blocking his path.)

(The author likes Mitrasha’s courage when he walks through a scary forest, his ingenuity when he figures out how to shorten the road. The author is worried, worries about the boy, sympathizes with him, as if he wants to warn him from danger. The author wholeheartedly roots for Mitrasha, describing his helplessness.” .

Episode 2 - “Nastya’s Adventures in the Forest.”

Why did Nastya forget about her brother? How does the author feel about Nastya?

(Nastya came across a Palestinian woman sprinkled with red cranberries and forgot about everything in the world. The author asks: “Where does a person, given his power, get greed even for the sour berry cranberry?” He doesn’t seem to condemn Nastya, but is only surprised. Author's attitude towards children is also expressed through the attitude of animals towards them.)

How do animals react to the appearance of children in the forest?

(Teterev Kosach does not notice them, “they were so quiet.”)

IV. Group work. Dramatization of the episode “Quarrel between Nastya and Mitrasha”

(Narrator, Nastya, Mitrasha, crow).

Questions for the class:

1. How could it happen that such friendly guys not only quarreled, but also left each other? After all, they knew that the ruthless Gray landowner was wandering in the forest, that there was a disastrous place in the swamp?

Questions for the class:

1. Why didn’t Grass immediately respond to Mitrasha’s call? p.65

2. What, besides sharpness, courage, and patience, helped Mitrasha escape?

4. Why did the almost wild Grass listen to the man and come to his aid?

5.What truth did Antipych whisper to both dogs and people?

IV. Conclusion.

So what is the sun's pantry? (This is not only the Bludovo swamp with its reserves of flammable peat, it is all nature and man - a “wise master.”)

By connecting the lives of people and nature, Prishvin expresses his main idea: A person must be reasonable in his relationship with nature, understand it, love and protect it.(This is the epigraph for the lesson, we write it down in a notebook).

Now let's return to the cluster. Have there been any changes? Are there differences in their personalities? What about the similarities?

Now we are divided into 2 teams: on my left is the team “Mitrash”, and on the right is “Nastenka”

So, pay attention to the screen.

V. Homework:

1. Think about why “The Pantry of the Sun” is called a fairy tale?
2. Fairy tale and reality in the work of Prishvin(by examining the text, identify the elements of the fairy tale and were)

3. Solve the crossword puzzle.

M. M. Prishvin entered literature not only as a talented writer, but also as an ethnographer, geographer, and cosmographer. However, his works were not in demand in Soviet society. Ideal for the literature of that time were works full of high civic and revolutionary pathos, saturated with the socialist slogans of those years. Prishvin’s work was considered an attempt to escape from real life, from solving pressing problems about building a bright future. Prishvin's discovery as a talented word artist took place only in recent decades. Today he is one of the most unsolved writers.

The nature of his native land had a huge influence on all his work. The future writer was born on the Khrushchevo estate. It was here that he learned to listen and hear the sounds of nature, its sometimes quiet and sometimes loud speech.
