Guys, tell me, how often do you say words of love, confess your love? To whom do you most often say "I love you"? Of course, first of all, to your favorite girls. Think about the last time you told your parents, “I love you. Thank you for having me." But they, no less than your girls, need our words of love, our support. They need us.
Writing an epigraph for the lesson.
You probably guessed it, today in the lesson we will talk about relationships with parents, about the attitude of our hero Yevgeny Bazarov towards his parents. Let's turn to our first epigraph.
“People like them cannot be found in our big world during the day with fire.” ( Bazarov about parents).
Every child can say the same about their parents.
Work on the topic of the lesson.
1) Let's first remember who Bazarov is and what you learned about him.Working with portraits Bazarov. Turgenev gives a small description of the appearance of his hero. We learn more about him from other heroes. (Bazarov is a nihilist. Bazarov is a future doctor, he studies at a medical university. After a three-year absence from home, he comes to his homeland, where his parents are looking forward to him.) And what can you say, looking at the portraits of Bazarov? How does he appear to you?
2) Yes, Bazarov is a nihilist. Who is a nihilist? How does Bazarov characterize himself? (We deny everything!) This means that nihilists also deny love, romanticism, sentimentalism. When others don't think so. Therefore, we can say that Bazarov is lonely.
3) Let's remember when Bazarov comes to his parents. Straightaway? (No, almost a month after his arrival from St. Petersburg. He comes to his parents after a difficult conversation with Anna Sergeevna Odintsova. He, a nihilist who denies all life, fell in love with this woman. And she rejected his feeling. It was unbearable for him. And for in order to forget Odintsova, Bazarov tries to distract himself, goes to his parents).
4) Tell us how Bazarov was met by his parents.
5) Who are they, what do they do? (Vasily Ivanovich is a very kind person. He treats peasants for free, although he has already refused to work as a doctor. He seeks to replenish his knowledge. Vasily Ivanovich is a hospitable host, he meets Arkady with pleasure, offers him a comfortable room, although in an outbuilding. Vasily Ivanovich she likes to talk a lot. Arina Vlasyevna is superstitious and ignorant, she was afraid of frogs, she didn’t read books. She loved to eat, sleep and “knew a lot about housekeeping.” She didn’t understand politics. She is very kind and caring: she won’t go to bed if her husband has a headache; loves her son more than anything in the world. Arina Vlasyevna is a person of a different way of life than her son.)
6) How do father and mother treat Eugene? (Mother affectionately calls him Enyushka; they were afraid to disturb him once again)
7) Can Bazarov be called a good son? (Yes, you can. He takes care of their financial condition, during his studies he did not ask them for a penny. Being at his death, he asks Odintsova to take care of his parents: “After all, people like them cannot be found in your big world during the day with fire ...”)
8) What is the reason for his “dry” communication with his parents? (With a break with Odintsova)
9) Can we say that Bazarov is insensitive towards his parents? (No, he does not want to upset his parents, so he decides to tell about his departure only in the evening.)
10) Why does Bazarov's parents' life seem "deaf"?
11) How does Bazarov feel about his parents? (Bazarov loves his parents, directly says to Arkady: “I love you, Arkady.” And this is a lot on his lips. In the first moments of meeting with his father, he looks at him with love and understands how he, poor fellow, turned gray. due assessment. But Bazarov cannot close his eyes to the difference in views and goals of life. Bazarov cannot accept such a deaf life. Bazarov does not want to fight with the little things of life, his task is to remake the foundations of life: there will be no correction of society and diseases. But to remake the foundations of life parents are not allowed, any attempt to scold them would at least upset them, would not bring any benefit).
12) Death of Bazarov. Why does Bazarov die? How does Bazarov feel about his death? (An experienced and understanding doctor, Bazarov knows perfectly well what needs to be done in case of infection, but does not do it.)
13) Tell us about the experiences of Bazarov's parents during his illness.
Painting work. In 1874, the artist V. Perov painted a painting based on the novel "Fathers and Sons" "Old parents at the grave of their son."
Work with text. What feelings does this picture evoke in you? (For parents, there is nothing more painful than the loss of their child.)
I want to read you a parable.One young man was unlucky in Love. Somehow he came across girls “not the ones” in his life. Some he considered ugly, others stupid, others grumpy. Tired of searching for the ideal, the young man decided to seek wise advice from the elder of the tribe.
After carefully listening to the young man, the elder said:
I see that your trouble is great. But tell me, how do you feel about your mother?
The young man was very surprised.
And why is my mother here? Well, I don’t know… She often irritates me: with her stupid questions, annoying concern, complaints and requests. But I can say that I love her.
The elder paused, shook his head, and continued the conversation:
Well, I will reveal to you the most important secret of Love. Happiness is there, and it lies in your precious heart. And the seed of your prosperity in Love was planted by a very important person in your life. Your mother. And as you treat her, so you will treat all the women of the world. After all, mom is the first Love that took you into her caring arms. This is your first image of a woman. If you love and honor your mother, you will learn to appreciate and respect all women. And then you will see that one day the girl you like will answer your attention with a gentle look, a gentle smile and wise speeches. You will not be prejudiced against women. You will see them as True. Our attitude to the Family is the measure of our happiness.
The young man bowed with gratitude to the wise old man. On his way back, he heard the following behind him:
Yes, and do not forget: look for that girl for Life who will love and honor her father!
What is this parable about? What conclusion can be drawn?
We, children, are indebted to our parents, we are obliged to protect them in old age, to be a support and hope. They should not worry about our terrible deeds, bad grades, bad behavior. It is in our power to make the life of parents happier. The poet M. Ryabinin has the following lines (the epigraph of the lesson):
Bow down to your mother's earth
And bow to the ground to the father ...
We are indebted to them unpaid -
Keep this in mind for the rest of your life.
I asked you to write an essay about your parents. What do they mean to you. You began to ask what to write, how to write. What they do for us cannot be described in words. And everyone said that they mean EVERYTHING to you!
“I love and appreciate my parents very much. Sometimes we have disagreements, but we still make up. My dad taught me how to play hockey and now I'm on the team. And mom will always help in difficult times. In any difficult situation, parents will give advice and are always there.
"I love my parents very much. I owe them my life. They raised me and taught me everything they know themselves.
“I often think that my mother can and knows everything in the world, from motorcycle repair, delicious pies, to the ability to communicate with me sincerely and understand me. My mother has good friends, because it cannot be otherwise, she is the best. I really love, appreciate, proud and respect my mom.”
“It so happened in my life that I live with my father. Dad is strict with me. He always says: "In any situation, remain human." My father wants me to do everything myself. Thanks to him I fell in love with sports. I am very grateful to my father for his care and love.”
“About two years ago I had an unbearable character, very often I quarreled with my parents. I am very grateful to my parents for putting up with my evil temper. And today I have warm relations with them. I want everything to continue like this, it only gets better.”
“Parents are the most precious thing in our lives. Each person must and must respect, love, appreciate and cherish them. I have a large and very friendly family. It so happened that my brothers and sister and I were left without parents, but we still do not stop loving and remembering them. They are also alive to us. They are always next to us. I have a brother on whom I can rely. In difficult times, we always help each other, we will lend a helping hand. Our beloved grandmother also lives with us, who partly replaced our parents. She does not have a soul in us, protects us from life's adversities, always side by side with us, both in sorrow and in joy. We sincerely wish her good health and patience in raising us. My brothers and sister and I understand what a hard, titanic work it is. For our part, we also help her with the housework, to nurse her sister. I am sure that we all will overcome all the difficulties and hardships of life that fate has prepared for us. Take care of your parents and your loved ones during life. Give them your warmth and love while your hearts are beating."
“My mother was the best, most caring. She was a good housewife, a good mother and a good wife. My parents always gave me free time. Every Sunday we went to church for services, she sang in the kliros, baked prosphora. Every morning she took me to the garden. I will never forget her!!! I love her very much and often feel her presence next to me.”
Presentation (photo with parents). Look at the happy faces of your parents. They are happy that we are with them. So don't make your parents sad. Support them, talk to them, be silent with them, always be with them. It was not in vain that I finished the presentation with a photo with your master. After all, here, in the Lyceum, she is your mother. Therefore, do not upset her with your bad behavior, your bad marks. Guys, when you come home, don't forget to hug your parents and say that you love them very much. Don't forget to wish your dear moms a Happy Mother's Day.
What could be more precious than a family?
Warmly welcomes the father's house,
Here they are always waiting for you with love,
And escorted on the road with good!
Love! And value happiness!
It is born in the family
What could be more precious
In this fabulous land
8. Summing up. Grading.

The novel by Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev "Fathers and Sons", of course, has long been on the shelf of the classics of Russian literature. The brightest figure of the work - Yevgeny Bazarov - became not only an example for inheritance, but also a spokesman for free-thinking and the latest ideological trends that raged among young people in the 1860s.
A few words about the plot of the novel
So, we have before us the events that unfold two years before the peasant reform of 1861. The novel begins with the arrival of Arkady Kirsanov and his friend, Yevgeny Bazarov, at the estate of Arkady's parents, Maryino.
Eugene is a representative of what will later be called progressive youth. The representatives of this peculiar and marginal stratum were beautifully described, among other things, by Boris Akunin in the epic novel The Adventures of Erast Fandorin. So, Bazarov and the Kirsanovs have an ideological conflict and Eugene decides to go to the city. Arkady Kirsanov follows him.
Bazarov is distinguished by his commitment to nihilistic ideas, and in the city at the governor's ball he meets a fairly young widow, Anna Sergeevna Odintsova. The latter is inclined to host representatives of the youth underground of that time. In the estate of Odintsova - Nikolskoye - Arkady and Evgeny are also invited. However, Anna is frightened by Bazarov's too open and frank romantic feelings for her, and he again decides to leave another place that disappointed him.
Dear readers! We bring to your attention in the story of Ivan Turgenev "Fathers and Sons".
The next "stop" is the house of Bazarov's parents - Arina Vlasyevna and Vasily Ivanovich. However, their specificity is the topic of the next part of our article. In the meantime, let's turn to the logic of the further development of the plot.
Eugene is quickly weighed down by the excessive love of his parents, whom he soon leaves again. The path again leads Evgeny and Arkady to Odintsova, but she does not show warmth when meeting them. As a result, our heroes once again find themselves in Maryino.
Eugene spends some time at the house of Arkady's parents, but comes into conflict with his uncle and shoots himself in a duel - because of the girl. The younger Kirsanov leaves for Nikolskoye, where he gives vent to his feelings for Katya, the sister of Anna Odintsova.
As for Bazarov, he also soon leaves Maryino again. In these ups and downs, Bazarov is experiencing some kind of spiritual and ideological renewal: he asks for forgiveness from Anna, and also, having completely quarreled with the Kirsanovs, returns to his parents' house. Eugene also breaks off communication with Arkady, who finally confesses his love to his sister Odintsova.
Staying with his parents, Bazarov helps his father, the doctor. However, after an unsuccessful autopsy of a man who died of typhus, Eugene dies from blood poisoning.
Vasily Ivanovich Bazarov
What is known about the appearance of Father Eugene? Vasily Ivanovich is described as a tall, thin man. He is not rich, but not poor either. The peasants were in his dues, and in total the estate numbered 22 souls and belonged to Bazarov's wife, Arina. Vasily himself worked as an army surgeon.
Both father and mother do not have a soul in their only son, Eugene. Some of the innovation that hovered in the pre-reform air is manifested here in what the culturologist Margaret Mead has called prefigurative culture. What does this mean? For example, this means that a father learns from his son, and not vice versa, which was certainly more common for that time, and indeed for the patriarchal and conservative Russian culture.
The father perceives the son's nihilistic worldview with curiosity. He begins to actively study the latest journalistic texts, to delve into the features of modern thought.
But why? Was Vasily Bazarov doing this because he himself was imbued with sincere feelings for the latest cultural trends? No, he was just very afraid of losing his son, he was afraid that he would turn away from him, stop paying attention to his father. As a result, Vasily gets confused and cannot find landmarks in life again.
In fact, the position of Father Bazarov expresses his inner strength: no matter how difficult it was for him to reject the principles, strict and conservative, in which he was brought up, he still does it by choosing priorities. Yes, he strives to have the image of an enlightened and modern person who perceives and accepts progressive ideas, but the reader guesses (which is not at all difficult to do) that this is just a guise in which the hero himself tries to believe, but in reality he still remains conservative, not liberal.
Arina Vlasevna Bazarova
Like her husband, she madly loves her son and idolizes him. Arina is not a noblewoman, she is an ordinary, simple and good-natured woman. If her husband is tall and slender, then she is short, fussy and plump - a hostess and a loving, caring mother.
She is accommodating and kind, but too old-fashioned in her piety and adherence to the old ways. Even the author of the novel himself notes that her birth should have happened much earlier, by 200 years.
In addition to pride in her son, she also feels fear of him. But if Vasily Bazarov tries to make contact with him, then Arina closes in on herself and tries to completely bypass the younger Bazarov.
She hardly speaks to him and practically does not show her attitude and feelings towards her son. However, she does this not because she wants to, but only because she knows that Eugene does not like excessive tenderness. Of course, her simplicity sometimes betrays her: it happens that a woman cries or rushes to hug Bazarov. But these impulses are suppressed either by Eugene himself, or by his father.
Bazarov's parents are an example of how paternal and maternal love without boundaries, to the point of likening one's own child to God, can have the opposite effect on this child: instead of approaching Eugene, they became infinitely far from him, despite all the efforts of the unfortunate old people.
The gap between fathers and children
It can be seen from the novel that the educated and well-read Yevgeny is drawn to the Kirsanovs who are similar to him in terms of intellectual development, but he does not find a place with them either. As for Bazarov's parents, it cannot be said that he does not love them: of course, he loves them, but he cannot speak the same language with them.
Of course, one can pretend that such a language exists, but it still did not allow Yevgeny to have discussions and intellectual, ideological disputes with his parents. Like many learned people, internally Bazarov partially withered, withered, like a tree living too long. If you listen carefully, peer into the image of Bazarov Jr., you can see how unhappy and lost he is, because his life philosophy preaches all-denial, skepticism and constant doubts.
Not all literary critics, however, agree that Bazarov loved his parents. Meanwhile, there is no doubt that Arina and Vasily's love for their son was blind: this can be seen not only in their words, but in every act. In Evgenia, the whole meaning of the life of the Bazarovs was concluded.
At the end of the novel, we see how thin and fragile the ideological shell is: it affects the minds of people like Yevgeny Bazarov only to the extent that it rebuilds his behavior, and not his inner essence. Only dying, he finally tells his parents that he loves them, and in fact he always noticed and appreciated their care. But he didn't know how to express his feelings. Perhaps Kirill Turovsky was right when he wrote that some people tend to fall into "sadness of the mind."
Evgeny Bazarov's parents in the novel "Fathers and Sons" by Ivan Turgenev
5 (100%) 1 vote Bazarov's attitude to parents
The novel of the Russian writer I. S. Turgenev "Fathers and Sons" was a landmark for its time. Written in the second half of the 19th century, it fully reflected the problems of the era and the conflict between the older and younger generations that has been relevant in all centuries. Bright representatives of the older generation in it are Bazarov's parents - Vasily Ivanovich and Arina Vlasyevna Bazarov. These are the only people who accepted their son for who he is, because they sincerely loved him.
Despite the fact that the author did not pay as much attention to them as to the Kirsanov family, we understand that these are people of the old school, brought up in accordance with strict rules and traditional dogmas. Vasily Ivanovich, as well as his son, is a doctor. In the eyes of others, he tries to appear progressive, but he is betrayed by distrust of modern methods of medicine. Arina Vlasyevna is a real Russian woman. She is illiterate and very devout. In general, it makes a good impression on the reader. The author notes that she should have been born two hundred years ago.
Both father and mother treat their son with reverence. They do not have a soul in him, despite his sharply liberal views. For them, it doesn’t matter whether Eugene is close or far, the main thing is that everything is fine with him. The attitude of Bazarov himself towards his parents can hardly be called love. Sometimes they frankly annoy him. It cannot be said that he appreciates the parental warmth with which they diligently surrounded him. He is not happy with their attempts to show joy in his presence. That's why he calls himself a "nihilist" in order to deny all the rules that have developed in society.
Vasily Ivanovich and Arina Vlasyevna know about the views of their son and his rejection of increased attention, so they try to hide their true feelings. Perhaps Bazarov himself loves his parents in his heart, but he doesn’t know how to openly show any emotions. Take, for example, his attitude towards Anna Sergeevna, whom he seriously liked and with whom he was really in love. Eugene never told her the most important thing, but only deliberately drowned out his feelings. Only, being already at death, he wrote her a letter with a reminder of his love and with a request to come.
As it became clear at the end of the piece, all his reactions were ostentatious. He was an absolutely normal, loving and good person, just in order to stand out from the crowd, he chose such an extraordinary way. Moreover, in a letter to Odintsova, he did not forget to mention his old people, begging her to look after them. The following lines testify precisely to his love for his parents: “People like them cannot be found in your great light during the day with fire.”
Bazarov's behavior in relations with Odintsova is contradictory. Another contradiction of the protagonist of the novel is Bazarov's attitude towards his parents. The latter are drawn by Turgenev with extraordinary sympathy.
Bazarov's father, Vasily Ivanovich, is a retired regimental doctor, a commoner by birth, a "plebeian", as he certifies himself. A sense of pride filled his words that he "felt the pulse" of Zhukovsky himself. And in the campaigns of the Russian army, he participated directly, and the heroes of the past "knew without fail." He builds his life in accordance with the educational ideals of the past: he lives by his work, is interested in science and politics. An important step in his life was the fact that "not without significant donations, he put the peasants on quitrent and gave them his land to share." He reaches out to the younger generation, like the father of Arkady, he wants to understand the quest and claims of his son. But life moves forward so irresistibly, the changes taking place in it are so abrupt that some kind of blank wall grows between him and his son and a deep abyss opens. “Of course,” he turns to his young friends, “you, gentlemen, better know where can we keep up with you? After all, you have come to replace us.” In many ways, Vasily Ivanovich still lives with old ideas. He often speaks in the language of the 18th century, using intricate phrases and words.
The hero's mother - Arina Vlasyevna - was also shaped by the past era. She lives by old traditions and customs, she is, in the words of Turgenev, "a real Russian noblewoman of the past." She is charming, especially at the moment when this kind woman busily busies herself to treat her beloved son, whom she is so proud of, but for whom she is so fearfully worried.
Bazarov's attitude towards his parents is very uneven. On the one hand, he tries to suppress the filial feeling in himself, he is ashamed of its manifestations. More than once he speaks very sharply about his father and mother, considering love for them unnatural sentimentality. And on the other hand, he shows great human tenderness for the “old men”. He goes to Odintsova, but on the way he remembers those who are waiting for him at home, since this is his name day. And then he tries to cover up his feelings for his parents, casually throwing the phrase: "Well, they'll wait, what's the importance." But Bazarov is at home, on the eve of farewell to Odintsova. His behavior is again contradictory. He clearly does not want to fulfill the request of his father, so important for the old man. But here, touchingly and tenderly, she characterizes Odintsova's parents: there is no need to dissuade the childishly ingenuous father of anything. “And caress your mother. After all, people like them cannot be found in your big world during the day with fire. In these contradictory judgments and feelings, Turgenev's hero reveals himself especially eloquently.
The novel "Fathers and Sons" by Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev, written in the already distant nineteenth century, remains relevant and understandable even to the modern reader, because this work reveals many important and fundamental topics. Love and friendship, conflicts and misunderstandings based on differing worldviews, the search for one's own place in this world - all this is reflected in the novel. However, one of the most interesting storylines from a psychological point of view is the relationship between fathers and children, which are clearly revealed on the example of one of the main characters of the work, Evgeny Bazarov.
Evgeny Vasilievich Bazarov from the first chapters of the novel appears to readers as a rational, somewhat cynical and ironic person, who denies all sorts of values and ideals, simply a nihilist. He is smart, erudite and passionate about medicine from an early age, which, of course, is an important aspect in characterizing a hero who does not attach importance to either cultural values or art directly.
Bazarov's parents are almost the exact opposite of their son. His mother, Arina Vlasyevna, is a typical Russian woman of that time - kind, somewhat superstitious, unwilling to think about global problems. She is focused on housekeeping and everyday life, she is not interested in science issues. Father Yevgeny, Vasily Bazarov, can be called a kind and disinterested person, always ready to help people around him. A former doctor, and now a modest landowner, he continues to treat people, is interested in innovations in the world of medicine, and even tries to demonstrate to Eugene his competence in these matters, although somewhat unsuccessfully. And, of course, Vasily never spared anything for the education of his son, who decided to follow in his footsteps when choosing a profession.
It is impossible and pointless to question the fact that Bazarov Jr. loves his parents, he himself says this to Arkady, his comrade. However, Eugene expresses feelings differently from his emotional parents, therefore he is perceived as a somewhat distant and dry character, not prone to sentimentality and sensitivity.
In my opinion, in the novel "Fathers and Sons" the author perfectly depicts the human characters and the peculiarities of the interaction of people who are really different both in worldview and in temperament. I believe that the main thing in the relationship between Yevgeny Bazarov and his parents is sincere and pure love, and the form in which it is expressed and what words it is clothed in is a secondary matter.
