Pan iz san francisco signs and symbols. Symbols in the description of bunina pan iz san francisco
Ivan Oleksiyovich Bunin, having depicted the real life of Russia, by reading it, you can easily show how the Russian people are alive ahead of the revolution. Bunin imaginatively depicts the life of the noble gardens and the common people, the culture of the nobles and the villagers, who warped, that ball of black soil on our roads. But all the same, it’s best to cackle the author’s soul to the Russian people, it’s impossible to confuse and understand to the end.
Bunin observes that great changes will soon come to the Suspіlstva, which will lead to the catastrophe of buttya and the catastrophe of the social order of life. To these topics, practically all the reports are related, as they wrote in 1913-1914. Ale schob to convey the approaching catastrophe, vyslovit u s vo ї vіdchuttya, Bunin, like a lot of scribes, vikoristovu image-symbols. One of the most beautiful such symbols is the image of a steamboat from the description of "Pan from San Francisco", written by the author in 1915.
On a steamboat with the name "Atlantis" head hero create destruction at a distance more expensive. Vіn rich and dovgo pratsyuvav, earning millions. The first axis is now at the reach of that equal, if you can allow yourself to go and marvel at the Old World, wine making yourself a similar rank for work. Bunin is more precise report description ship, on which sit Yogo hero. Vіn used to be a grand hotel, de buli all the succes: the bar was working well, buli here and skhіdnі laznі, and navіt issued a good newspaper.
"Atlantis" in its own opinion - tse place, deems more podiums. This is a unique model of the world, de life and a writer, and his characters. Ale tsey bourgeois world. The reader changes his mind, if he reads, as the divisions of the whole steamboat. The other deck of the ship was given to the passengers of the ship, de tsilu dobu on the snowy deck and have fun. Ale zovsіm in a different way looking at the lower tier of the steamboat, de people pratsyuyut tsіlodobovo at the spice that saw, tse like nine kolo baked. Qi people, who stand by the majestic stoves, collapse the steamboat.
There are a lot of servants and utensils on the steamboat, like serving the other tier of the ship, they will take care of their life. The baggies of the other and the remaining deck of the ship do not grow one after another, between them there are no ordinary stoks, wanting to stink on the same ship in a terrible misfortune, and boil overboard and vibrate the majestic whims of the ocean. Navit chitach vіdchuvaі vіdchuvaі vіdchuvaє vіdchuvaі vіdchuvaі, yakіy іmаєєєєєєєєєєєєє struggle зі sієyu, albeit bourgeois suspіlstvo not zvіtає tse zhodnoї respect.
Apparently, Atlantis is the whole civilization, as if by a wondrous rank it appeared in the ocean. Tsya legend about the emergence of civilization is put in the name of the steamboat. And the author is less likely to feel that the hour is approaching the sign of that world that is on the ship. Ale's an hour to surf on a steamboat for a wealthy gentleman from San Francisco, I don't remember any of them. The death of one hero points to those who will soon come to the death of our world. Ale tse no one swears respect, shards of the bourgeois world baiduzhi and zhorstok.
Ivan Bunin knows that the world has a lot of injustice and cruelty. Vіn a lot of things bachiv, to that with a trivogo check on those that the Russian state is guilty of collapsing. It’s thrown me a little further away from life: I didn’t manage to understand and accept the revolution and all my life, maybe thirty years in emigration. In Buninsk, the steamboat was explained - tse German light, de people are hopeless that її share of no one to squawk. At the majestic ocean, civilization is collapsing, as if you know your future, but you won’t remember the past.
Symbolism and existential sense of confirmation
"Pan from San Francisco"
In the past lesson, we got to know the work of Ivan Oleksiyovich Bunin and began to analyze one of the yogo reviews of "Pan from San Francisco". We talked about the composition of the narrative, discussed the system of images, talked about the poetics of the Bunin word. Today, we should recognize the role of details in descriptions, designate image-symbols, formulate the theme and idea of creation, and develop Bunin's understanding of the human butt.
· Let's talk about the details in the advice. Yakі details you succumbed; yakі from them appeared symbolic.
· For the cob we understand the “detail”.
Detail - especially meaningful visionary element of the artistic image, a vivid detail in the work, which carried meaning and ideological and emotional excitement.
1. Even in the first phrase, it sounds like irony to the pan: “I don’t remember him in Naples, I didn’t forget anyone on Capri”, the author himself confirms that the pan is just a human being.
2. Pan іz С-Ф itself є symbol - tse chosen image all the bourgeois of that hour.
3. The presence of the name is a symbol of the facelessness, inner lack of spirituality of the hero.
4. The image of the steamboat “Atlantis” is a symbol of the suspense of the yogo ієrarchієyu: the aristocracy of which is empty, which is typified by the people who hold the ship’s arms, as if they practice at the sweat’s guise of the “veletnaya” firebox, as the author calls the ninth stake of hell.
5. Images of ordinary inhabitants of Capri alive and right, and the writer himself reassured him, that the well-being of the wealthy versions of the life does not mean anything in the ocean of our life, that the riches and wealth are not zahistic in the transition to smoking, people are so real living on morality and dead life.
6. The very image of the ship is the shell of a permissible life, and the ocean - the world's storm, raging, changes, even as our hero succumbs.
7. The name of the ship - "Atlantis"
8. Do you have any other associations with the description of the steamboat? The description is similar to the "Titanic", which confirms the idea that mechanized suspense is doomed to a summed result.
9. All the same, the beginning is bright. The beauty of the sky and gіr, like nibi is angry with the images of the villagers, all the same, it is still strong, what is right in life, right, what is worthless pennies.
10. Siren and music - also a symbol of victorious writing by a writer, at times a siren - ce light chaos, and music - ce harmony and light.
11. The symbolic image of the captain of the ship, which the author pitted with the pagan god on the cob that, for example, justification. In appearance, this person is really similar to an idol: ore, stingy in size and vantage, in a marine uniform with wide gold stripes. Vіn, like to lay down to God, live in the captain's cabin - the most important point of the ship, where the entrance to passengers is fenced, vin is rarely shown in public, but the passengers safely trust that power of that knowledge. And the captain himself, being all the same a human being, feels rather unsung in the turbulent ocean and leans on the telegraph machine, which is standing at the ship's cabin-radio-cubicle.
12. The letter ends with a symbolic picture. A steamboat, near the hold of which lies a millionaire by the trunk, through the haze and whirlwind of the sea in the ocean, and from the skel of Gibraltar behind him the Devil, "magnificent, like a skelya." The soul of the pan from San Francisco was delivered to you, the soul of the lord from San Francisco, the soul of rich souls (pp. 368-369).
13. Golden seals of a pan from San Francisco
14. yoga daughter
15. Negro servants "with squirrels similar to flaky hard-boiled eggs"
16. Colourful details: pan smoked up to a raspberry black uniform, stokers – crimson in the half-light, red jackets of musicians and black natovp lackeys.
17. the last prince is all wooden
18. the beauty has a crooked bending licky dog
19. a pair of dancing "zakokhanih" - a red, similar to a majestic p'appearance
20. Luigi's grandeur brought to idiocy
21. the gong at the hotel in Capri sounds “loudly, as if in a pagan temple”
22. old in the corridor "stooped, scarlet decollete", hurried forward "like a chicken".
23. sir
24. From the very cob, it is more expensive to see the mass of details that you can think of or tell about death. A bunch of wines are taken to Rome, to hear the Catholic prayer of repentance there (as if it is read before death), then the steamboat "Atlantis", which is supported by a double symbol: from one side, the steamboat symbolizes a new civilization, de power is signified by wealth that pride zreshtoy ship, dragging such a name, is guilty of drowning. From the other side, "Atlantis" - a special place baked that paradise.
· What is the role of the numerical details in the evidence?
· Yakim paints Bunin a portrait of his hero? Yake vinikaє at chitacha feel like why?
(“Dry, not tall, oddly cut, almond stitching ... It was Mongolian in its yellow guise with trimmed silver whiskers, golden seals glittered with its great teeth, an old mov brush - a mitzna fox's head ... ".) This is a portrait; wait, that before us is a physiological description (the tragedy has not yet come, but it is already visible in these rows).
Ironically, Bunin vismiyuє all vadi bourgeois image life through the selected image of the pan, numerical details - the emotional characteristics of the characters.
· You, singsongly, remembered that the creation has an hour of that expanse. How do you know why the plot develops along the way?
The road is a symbol of the path of life.
· How is the hero to be staged before one o'clock? Yak sir rozplanuvav his expensive?
in the description of the strange world from the glance of the pan from San Francisco, the hour is exactly that clearly; in a word, hour specifically. According to the years, days were planned on a steamboat and in a Neapolitan hotel.
· In some fragments, the text develops rapidly, and in which plot hour does it slow down?
Rakhunok is not remembered for an hour, if the author tells about the right, the real life: the panorama of the Neapolitan tributary, the painting of the street market, the colorful images of Lorenzo's chovnyar, the two Abrutsk mountaineers and - the most important - the description of the "radiant, beautiful, sleepy" land. The 1st hour is slowing down, if the roster about the peace is begun, the life of the master from San Francisco is planned.
· If the writer in the past calls the hero not a pan?
(According to the price on the island of Capri. If nature overcomes yoga, you feel wine old: “I sir from San Francisco, looking at myself like it was called youma, - we’re old, - already with tight and malice thinking about all these greedy, stinking little people, called Italians ..." "tuga and anger", "rozpach". I again blame the detail - "annoying the lives"!)
· What do New Light and Old Light mean (why not America and Europe)?
The phrase "Old World" is already mentioned in the first paragraph, if it is told about the purpose of the pan's trip from San Francisco: "one thing for the sake of the rose." I, pіdkreslyuyuchi kіl'tsevu composition opіdannya, vot vinikaє naprikintsі - in poddnanny s "New World". New Light, which gave rise to a type of people who live the culture “one for the sake of bragging”, “Old Light” - these people are alive (Lorenzo, mountaineers toshcho). The New World and the Old World are two facets of humankind, where there is a difference between the difference between the historical roots and the living sights of history, between civilization and culture.
· Why do they feel at the breast (in advance of the day)?
the birth of the Savior of the old world and the death of one of the representatives of the piece of the new world, and the spiving of two timing lines - mechanical and correct.
· Why did the death of the pan from San Francisco to Capri, in Italy?
All people, regardless of their material position, are equal before death. Bagach, which virushiv take away all the satisfaction in the eye, "Less starting life" in 58 years (!), raptovo vmiraє.
· How do you feel the death of the old one in the otochyuchy? How to behave with respect to the retinue of that pan's daughter?
Yogo death calls not spontaneously, but a terrible commotion. Gospodar to the hotel vibachaetsya and obіtsyaє shvidko everything is good. Suspіlstvo overwhelmed tim, scho hto navazhivsya zіpsuvat їm vіdpochinok, guess about death. Until a recent companion, that yoga squad of the stench was aware of the agility of that guard. The corpse in a rough box is fastened to the hold of a steamboat. The rich man, who, having respected himself as important and significant, pretending to be on a dead body, is not needed by anyone.
The idea lies in the details, in the plot and the composition, in the antithesis of the pardon and the right human butt (opposite false riches - A couple on a steamboat, the most powerful image-symbol of the world of peace, love of love, the price of a hired death - and the right inhabitants of Capri, most importantly the poor).
The idea is that the life of a person is tenditna, all are equal before death. Vyslovlyuє through the description of the remembrance of the dying to the living pan and to the next day of death. Pan thinking, what a penny to give him the honor. “Vіn buv opevneniya, scho maє povne right to vodpochinok, to satisfaction, on the road to all vіdshennyah vіdmіnnu ... in a first way, vin buv rich, but in a different way, shoyno started to life.”
· Chi alive povnotsіnnymi life to tsієї dearer our hero? To what do you dedicate your life?
sir is not alive until this moment, but having realized that all of life was dedicated to the fact that “to align with those whom the sir took for a drink”. Mustaches of pan's reconciliation turned out to be hibnimi.
· Give respect to the finale: the hired couple itself was seen especially here - why?
After the death of the pan, nothing has changed, all riches also continue to live their mechanized lives, and “the steam is dying” also continues to earn money for pennies.
· Can we call the story a parable? What is a fairy tale?
Parable - short povchalna rozpovid in an allegory form, to take revenge on one's own morale.
· So how can we call the story a parable?
Perhaps, to that, I tell about the worthlessness of wealth and rule before death with the triumph of nature, love, breadth (image Lorenzo, Abrutsk mountaineers).
· What can a person stand against nature? Can you plan everything, like pan iz S-F?
A person is mortal (“rapt is mortal” - Woland), therefore a person is impossible to resist nature. Usі tehnіchіchі dosyagnennya do not allow people to die. We have an eternal philosophy and tragedy of life: people grow up, die.
· Why give us an excuse-parable?
“Pan iz…” read us for the sake of life, and do not be internally soulless, do not give in to mechanized suspense.
Rozpovid Bunina maє existential sens. (Existential - po'yazany z buttyam, іsnuvannyam people.) At the center of opіvіdannya - nourishment of life and death.
· What can you do to resist the nebutt?
The right human buttya, as shown by the writer in the image of Lorenzo and the Abrutsk mountaineers (Fragment from the words "Trading only a market on a small square ... 367-368").
· How can we make wisps, marveling at this episode? How are the two sides of the medal shown to us by the author?
Poor Lorenzo, poor Abrutsk mountaineers, who sing the glory of the greatest poor in the history of mankind - Our Lady of the Savior, who was born "at to the poor shepherd's hut." "Atlantis" well, the civilization of riches, as if trying to heal the haze, the ocean, the swirl - the existential oman of the people, the devilish oman.
Rozpovid "Pan from San Francisco", written in 1915 Ivan Oleksiyovich Buninim, prikhovuє in his image-symbols such a subtext. A deep sense of creation does not lie on the surface, in a word, in order to better understand Bunin, you need to be amazed at the details, fragments, and give the meaning of skin flakes. I’ll look at the genre, tvir є parable- short notices, in a way, in an allegorical form, a philosophical interpretation of life's manifestations is given.
Before the cob the creation is given an epigraph from the Bible: "Woe to you, Babylon, place of mitzne!", which is already a symbol, setting the singing tone.
Babylon at the Bible-misto sin, various vices, through the yakі misto i perished.
Zvernemosya to the main character, who, before the speech, cannot name it ... Yogo character is a selective image, faceless, Syrian. Tsey pan hotіv buti yak usі, vіdpochivati gіdno, as usual in yogo kolі. I destroyed the wines to Europe by the liner "Atlantis". The name symbolizes Atlantis, which sank, and the liner itself - the suspension of stratification. At the very bottom, there is a machine, where stokers and mechanics work in hellish specialties, and mechanics, zavdyaks to the ship’s fuel. Sailors and service personnel live on the lower decks. On the upper deck, rich passengers are sailing and canoeing, fitting themselves with an indecent luxury.
In my opinion, the ocean is also a symbol. I show you that in front of the majestic, strong element, everything is equal. Passengers live piecemeal, immoral, think less about good luck. The dancing couple licked the ticking detail, they were hired to "gray in the hut for good pennies."
More expensively the central character will end with a rapt death. Yogo dead body is buried in the very womb of that very ship and taken back to America, which shows the borderline stupidity of human butt.
Also, in the description of "Pan iz San Francisco" the philosophical idea is revealed by a path of symbolic cues and image-symbols.

“Pan from San Francisco” is a philosophical tale-parable about the place of the people in the world, about the sight of the people in the world. According to Bunin's thought, a person cannot stand against the shocks of light, cannot repair the flow of life, which carries yoga, like a river - a triska. Such a light-gazer appeared in the philosophical idea of the Pan from San Francisco: a person is mortal, moreover (like Bulgakov’s Woland) is raptly mortal, therefore people’s claims to panuvannya in nature, to the understanding of the laws of nature are unsupported. Mustaches of science and technology achievements modern people do not rite yoga in death. For whom the tragedy of life is eternal: people grow up, die.
In attendance symbolic details, zavdyaki like a story about the death of a sane person becomes a philosophical parable about the death of the entire household, in which a gentleman rules, similar to the main character. Obviously, the symbolic image of the main character, although it is impossible to name a detail of Bunin's explanation. The history of the pan from San Francisco was written in a few words in the most obvious way, in the description of a great report portrait, his name has never been guessed. In this rank, the main hero is typical diy special parables: a person is not so specific, like a type-symbol of a singing suspense class and moral behavior.
In Kaztsi vinyatkove, the details may have a different meaning: the picture of nature is more likely to be created for the sake of necessity, and the scenery is seen without decorations. Bunin breaks the rules of the genre parables and victorious one detail after another, realizing his artistic principle of object-creative imagery. In the middle of different people, the details are detailed, which are repeated, as if to attract the respect of the reader and transform into symbols (“Atlantis”, її captain, the ocean, a couple of dead young people). The number of details that are repeated are symbolic even to the one that is instilled in a solitary one.
Epigraph from the Bible: “Woe to you, Babylon, the place of mіtsne!”, according to the author's idea, setting the tone of rozpovidi. Podnannya vіrsha z Apocalypse іz images of today's heroes and the environment of today's life is already a literal reader in a philosophical way. Babylon in the Bible is not just a great place, it is a place-symbol of ogid sin, various vices (for example, the Babylonian tower is a symbol of the human pride), through them, zgidno from the Bible, the place perished, conquered and destroyed by the Assyrians.
At Rozpovid Bunin, there is a small modern steamboat "Atlantis", similar to the place. The ship in the winds of the Atlantic becomes for the writer a symbol of modern prosperity. At the underwater womb of the ship there are great fireboxes and machines. Here, in non-human minds - in gurkot, in hellish specialists and assholes - stokers and mechanics work, making the ship sail across the ocean. On the lower decks, there are various service rooms: kitchens, komori, wineries, laundry rooms. Sailors, service personnel and daily passengers live here. Then, on the upper deck, more suspense was spread (there are five dozen people in total), as if enjoying luxurious life and unstoppable comfort, more people and є “lords of life”. The ship (“current Babylon”) is named symbolically - in the name of a rich, densely populated country, as if in one mile the bula was swept away by the winds of the ocean and arose obscurity. In such a manner, between the biblical Babylon and the legendary Atlantis, a logical link is established: insulting the oppressive, vicious powers to perish, and the ship, which symbolizes the unfair supremacy and names of the flooring, is also famous for the tempestuous storm in the ocean. In the midst of the ocean, a shaker is a whirlwind, to walk, a majestic ship similar to a fragile ship, as if it could not repair the opir of the elements. It is not for nothing that the steamboat from the skel of Gibraltar, which goes to the American shores, marvels at the Devil (the author wrote the word in a great letter in a non-judgmental way). This is how Bunin's philosophical idea manifests itself in the rozpovidi about the powerlessness of a person in front of nature, undefiled for the human mind.
The ocean becomes symbolic for example, justification. The storm is described as a catastrophe of the world: in the whistle of the wind, the author senses a “funeral month” for the great “lord of life” and all modern civilization; the mourning blackness of the hvil is supported by white klapti stumps on the combs.
The symbolic image of the captain of the ship, which the author pitted with the pagan god on the cob that, for example, justification. In appearance, this person is really similar to an idol: ore, stingy in size and vantage, in a marine uniform with wide gold stripes. Vіn, like to lay down to God, live in the captain's cabin - the most important point of the ship, where the entrance to passengers is fenced, vin is rarely shown in public, but the passengers safely trust that power of that knowledge. As the captain, being all the same a human being, he feels even more unsung in the turbulent ocean, and he leans on the telegraph device, which is standing at the ship's cabin-radio-cubicle.
On the cob of that naprikintsі opovіdannya zakohana steam, as if attaching respect to the naughty passengers of the Atlantis team, who do not want their own kohanna, their own feelings. And only the captain knows that the happy look of these young people is a hoax, more a couple of "playing a comedy": in fact, the masters hired a shipping company for the sake of passengers. If you blame the midst of the gleaming suppleness of the upper deck, the falseness of human vents, as if the stench is so annoyingly demonstrated, you will expand with your breath. This “evilly modest” girl and a tall young man, “resembling a majestic p'yavka”, become a symbol of the greatest supremacy, in which, according to Bunin's thought, there is no space for a little, and behind the ostentatious glare and kindness, there is roaring.
It should be noted that “Pan from San Francisco” is considered one of the best vindications of Bunin both for the idea and for his artistic inspiration. The story about the immeasurable American millionaire transforms into a philosophical parable with broad symbolic implications.
Moreover, Bunin creates symbols differently. Pan from San Francisco becomes a sign-symbol of bourgeois sophistication: the writer takes away all the individual features of that character and the support of his social figure: lack of spirituality, predilection for gain, immense self-satisfaction. Bunin’s other symbols will be on the associative proximity (the Atlantic Ocean is the traditional connection between human life and the sea, and the person herself is with a fragile cloak; fireboxes in the engine room are inferno fire), on the vicinity of the annex (a rich deck ship in the life) close to the function (the captain is a pagan god).
The symbols in the description become distinctly different from the interpretation of the author's position. Through them, the author, having shown the falsehood and depravity of bourgeois suspense, seemed to have forgotten about moral laws, the right sense of human life, and is approaching an all-world catastrophe. It was clear that Bunin's vision of the catastrophe was especially brightened up by the twinkling of the light war, as it flared up more and more, transformed in front of the author's eyes at the majestic human slaughter.
