Dagny walked through the deserted streets. She did not notice that behind her, trying not to catch her eye, was Nils, sent by Magda. He swayed like a drunk and mumbled something about a miracle that had happened in their little life.
The darkness of the night still lay over the city. But in the windows, the northern dawn was already taking on a faint gilding. Dagny went to the sea. It lay in deep sleep without a single splash.
Dagny clenched her hands and groaned from a sense of the beauty of this world that was still not clear to her, but engulfing her whole being.

VIII. slide 26. A fragment of a slide-film to the music of E. Grieg "Solveig's Song".
The story of Konstantin Paustovsky "Basket with fir cones" was written in 1954. It tells about the famous Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg, as well as about the amazing country of Norway: about its seas and forests, impregnable rocks, folk legends, songs that inspired the composer in his work.
Edvard Grieg was born in the city of Bergen and returned here already in adulthood, being a famous and universally recognized composer. Not far from the city he built a villa and lived there for a long time among ordinary people- fishermen, lumberjacks, peasants. The nature of Norway is incomparable to anything: the cold sea with narrow bays, the sound of the surf and the mountain forests, through which the composer liked to wander for hours.
And then one autumn he met in the forest a little girl Dagny, the daughter of a forester, with a basket of fir cones.
The girl's eyes were green, and golden foliage reflected in them. Grieg was touched by her childish prudence and seriousness, and he wanted to give something to the girl. No, not a toy (“he didn’t have dolls, ribbons and velvet hares”), and then Grieg decided to write music for her with a dedication: “Dagny Pedersen - the daughter of the forester Hagerup Pedersen when she turns eighteen.”
For about a month he composed music for Dagny, composed and imagined a young girl running towards him to thank him for the gift. What will he say to her then? "You are beautiful! You are like the sun and the wind, you are a delicate flower and the brilliance of dawn, you are happiness. The beauty of life is you." And Grieg saw all this already then, at the meeting, when she was still a little girl, and he carried her basket of cones, and now he expressed it in music.
But did this meeting really take place, because Grieg subsequently never once remembered this? AND piece of music with such a dedication, too.
So, this is a story invented by the author, or maybe there was something similar in the life of the composer? Here we can remember Nina Hagerup, his cousin and wife. They grew up together in Bergen, but at the age of 8, Nina and her family left for Denmark, and the young people met as adults. And the play, most likely, also exists, only it is called "Morning" and is part of the very famous suite "Peer Gynt", and another play from the same suite sounded at their wedding.
Therefore, the image of Dagny is collective, fictional and real at the same time. Couldn't it have happened that the forester's daughter really once met Grieg. And then he wanted to tell her with the help of music: “I saw life. Whatever you are told about her, always believe that she is amazing. I gave everything to life ... "
The beauty of life is the person himself and everything that surrounds him, that pleases and excites him. Art helps people to see beauty in life.

Read the writing on the board.
On the board: “A poem, a fairy tale, music are miracles ... And people with a good heart can do miracles.”
How should a person live? (Children's statements.)
In his work, Konstantin Paustovsky often raises philosophical questions about the meaning of life, about the search for one's place in this world, about the difficulty of choosing. The story "Basket with fir cones" is no exception. Reading this light life-affirming work, you understand that the best things in life are given to a person for free.
The main characters of this work, the composer Edvard Grieg and the little girl Dagny, the daughter of a forester, meet in the forest. The composer just walks, admiring the unique autumn landscape and the girl collects fir cones. Ordinary conversation, ordinary autumn. However, everything around seems to be saturated with a fairy tale: surprisingly thin and susceptible to every rustle aspen leaves, spruce cones smelling of heavy odorous resin, a fragile and extraordinarily beautiful glass boat ...
Grieg is so impressed by the communication with the little stranger that he decides to devote musical composition. Of course, a child is not able to deeply appreciate the power and beauty of classical music, so Grieg says that Dagny will receive a gift in ten years, when she turns eighteen. The girl is at a loss, she wants to receive a gift now, but she can only accept it.
Creating a work dedicated to Dagny, the composer thinks tenderly of his little muse. He knows that ahead of her is so exciting, so bright and wonderful Life full of discovery and love. Grieg wishes the girl great and real happiness, and puts all his experiences into music.
Years pass, Dagny turns into a slender beauty with long braids. On the occasion of graduation, the girl goes to visit her uncle and aunt, and they decide to take her to a concert. What is the general surprise when indescribably beautiful music dedicated to her, the forester's daughter, sounds from the stage.
In Dagny's soul everything turns upside down, she remembered everything: and the beautiful autumn forest and a man with laughing eyes who promised to give her unusual gift. This gift is truly the best you could wish for, because it is more than music, it is the gift of the love of life.
Life consists of many large and small events, every minute a person is surrounded by hundreds of things, and how important it is to remember that all this is beautiful, and to love life in all its manifestations. "Basket of Fir Cones" is a small but impressive story that makes the reader think about true values.
- Human life is so fast-paced and full of events that sometimes you forget what is the most important thing in life, and what is still secondary. This is exactly what happens to Nastya, the heroine of Paustovsky's story "Telegram". Although the whole plot revolves around her name, we get to know Nastya herself in the second half of the story. Nastya was born and raised in the remote village of Zaborye. Apparently, the girl was very bored and home village, and everything connected with her, because she has not come to the village for years. Life is not worth […]
- How often in life we, without hesitation, hurt others. How much can one save good word, one compassionate act. Perhaps it was this idea that Paustovsky wanted to convey to the reader with the story “ warm bread". The protagonist of the story, Filka, nicknamed “Well, you!” Is a boy with a very difficult character. Filka is distrustful, intractable, rude to everyone, even to an old grandmother. For the time being, his rudeness gets away with him, but only until the boy offended the wounded horse, the […]
- A painful feeling arises at the end of reading the story of K. G. Paustovsky "Telegram". Not light sadness, quiet sadness and conciliatory harmony with the world, but some kind of heavy dark stone on the soul. As if the feeling of guilt that befell Nastya too late falls to some extent on me. In general, such topics are not so characteristic of the well-known Paustovsky, studied at school and loved by young children. We all know the author who respects and appreciates native nature, masters of subtle and touching descriptions […]
- Do good - and it will return to you, do evil - expect retribution. Everything in life is interconnected. Probably, Paustovsky's story "Hare Paws" is about this: about the interconnection of all living things, about the importance of love and compassion in life. The title of the story is very unusual and immediately makes the reader wonder why hare paws? What is so special about them? Well, I got oblique into a forest fire, escaped, it's an everyday thing. Is it really worth writing a whole story about this? It turns out that it is worth it, because the hare in the story is not simple, but […]

- The revival of the name of Maxim Gorky after the revision of the place of his work in Russian literature and the renaming of everything that bore the name of this writer must definitely happen. I think significant role the most famous of Gorky's dramatic legacy, the play "At the Bottom" will play in this. The drama genre itself suggests the relevance of the work in a society where there are many unresolved social problems where people know what a rooming house and homelessness are. M. Gorky's play "At the Bottom" is defined as a socio-philosophical drama. […]

- It should be noted that the episode of the collision of the crews is divided into two micro-themes. One of them is the appearance of a crowd of onlookers and "helpers" from neighboring village, the other - Chichikov's thoughts, caused by a meeting with a young stranger. Both of these themes have both an external, superficial layer, directly related to the characters of the poem, and a deep layer, bringing to the scale of the author's thoughts about Russia and its people. So, the collision occurs suddenly, when Chichikov silently sends curses to Nozdryov, thinking that […]
- F. M. Dostoevsky was a true humanist writer. Pain for man and humanity, compassion for the trampled human dignity, the desire to help people are constantly present on the pages of his novel.

They are forced to live in a cruel world that enslaves their minds and hearts, makes them act and act in ways that people would not like, or whatever they would do while in other […]

"Basket with fir cones": the main characters, the main idea, what to write?
The short story Basket with fir cones was written by Konstantin Paustovsky.
Main characters:
Dagny Pedersen, forester's daughter
Edvard Grieg, composer
Magda, Aunt Dagny
Nils, Uncle Dagny.
the main idea of this story is that you always have to believe in a miracle and it will definitely happen, and then meaning will appear in your life, as it appeared in the life of the girl Dagny, when she heard Grieg's music dedicated to herself.
Summary:
In the forest, the old composer Grieg met the forester's daughter Dagny, who was 8 years old and helped her bring a basket of fir cones. Grieg liked the girl so much that he promised to give her a gift, not now, but in 10 years, when Dagny turns 18.
Grieg left and spent several months writing the promised music.
10 years have passed, Dagny graduated from high school and went to Christiania, to her uncle and aunt. Aunt constantly took Dagny to the theaters, and Dagny was very worried about what was gone. Once Aunt Magda decided to take Dagny to a concert, and there the girl suddenly heard her name. The back rows were asked to repeat and she was convinced that this was exactly the gift that he had promised her. an old man ten years ago.
Magical music reminded Dagny of her native forest and herself, a little girl. She realized that life is worth living for the sake of beauty and that she loves this life.
An unexpected meeting in the forest of the composer Grieg and the Norwegian girl Dagny, who was collecting fir cones, ended with an agreement - Grig will give the girl an unusual gift for her 18th birthday. To the girl’s question why wait so long, the composer replied that the gift would be unusual and such gifts are not given to children. He decided to write a musical composition for her.
Bergen. Composer Grieg's house. Memories of the meeting with Dagny are a source of inspiration for the composer. The girl becomes a muse for him, a guide to the world of dreams, to that world of forever gone youth, when he was young and happy:
Many years later. Dagny turned into a slim beautiful girl, her father sent her to his sister, a theater dressmaker. Dagny had the opportunity to visit theatrical performances. Once she got to the first concert in her life symphonic music. During the concert, the master of ceremonies suddenly announced:
During the performance of music, Dagny was overwhelmed with feelings: she remembered her house, forest, mountains, sea ... For a long time she wandered through the deserted streets until she came out completely devastated to sea shore and did not whisper:
The uncle Niels, who was watching the girl, uttered a phrase that, in my opinion, is the main idea of this story:
A story called Basket with fir cones was written by Konstantin Paustovsky. The main characters of the story are: Dagny Pedersen ( main character, daughter of the forester Hagerup Pedersen), Edvard Grieg (composer), Magda (tty Dagny), Niels (uncle Dagny, husband of Magda). Fairy tale environment, little girl Dagny walks in an unusual beautiful forest and meets the composer Edward. They have a good-natured conversation, in the end, the composer Edward has only good impressions from communicating with an unfamiliar girl. Further, in a fit of emotion, composer Edward dedicates a beautiful piece of music to Dagny. Of course, the little girl does not appreciate this properly, to which Edvard Grieg replies that this is a gift, and she will appreciate it only ten years later, that is, when she turns eighteen. Years pass, the girl grows up, finishes school. In honor of finishing school on the same day, Dagny goes to her aunt Magda and uncle Nils, and they, in turn, go with her to a concert. At the concert sounds just the same piece of music dedicated to her. Dagny is very surprised and remembers those wonderful moments and understands that this is the best gift. main idea this story in my opinion is that classical music conveys the feelings, emotions and thoughts in general of one person to another, it makes you think about the smallest values in life.
