Sergey Yesenin
"I left home...»

I left my home
Rus' left the blue one.
Three-star birch forest above the pond
The old mother feels sadness.

Golden frog moon
Spread out on the calm water.
Like apple blossom, gray hair
There was a spill in my father's beard.

I won't be back soon, not soon!
The blizzard will sing and ring for a long time.
Guards blue Rus'
Old maple on one leg.

And I know there is joy in it
To those who kiss the leaves of the rain,
Because that old maple
The head looks like me.

Rafael Aleksandrovich Kleiner (born June 1, 1939, village of Rubezhnoye, Lugansk region, Ukrainian SSR, USSR) - Russian theater director, People's Artist of Russia (1995).
From 1967 to 1970 he was an actor at the Moscow Taganka Drama and Comedy Theater.

Yesenin Sergei Alexandrovich (1895-1925)

Yesenin! Golden name. Murdered youth. Genius of the Russian land! None of the Poets who came into this world had such spiritual strength, enchanting, omnipotent, soul-grabbing childish openness, moral purity, deep pain-love for the Fatherland! So many tears were shed over his poems, so many human souls sympathized and empathized with every Yesenin line, that if it were counted, Yesenin’s poetry would outweigh any and much more! But this method of assessment is not available to earthlings. Although from Parnassus one could see that the people have never loved anyone so much! With Yesenin’s poems they went into battle in the Patriotic War, for his poems they went to Solovki, his poetry excited souls like no other... Only the Lord knows about this holy love of the people for their son. Yesenin’s portrait is squeezed into wall family photo frames, placed on the shrine along with icons...
And not a single Poet in Russia has ever been exterminated or banned with such frenzy and tenacity as Yesenin! And they banned, and kept silent, and belittled, and threw mud at them - and they are still doing this. It is impossible to understand why?
Time has shown: the higher Poetry is in its secret lordship, the more embittered the envious losers are, and the more imitators there are.
Another great gift of God from Yesenin - he read his poems as uniquely as he created them. They sounded like that in his soul! All that remained was to say it. Everyone was shocked by his reading. Please note, great Poets have always been able to read their poems uniquely and by heart - Pushkin and Lermontov... Blok and Gumilyov... Yesenin and Klyuev... Tsvetaeva and Mandelstam... So, young gentlemen, a poet mumbling his lines on a piece of paper from the stage is not a Poet, but an amateur... A poet may not be able to do many things in his life, but not this!
The last poem“Goodbye, my friend, goodbye...” is another secret of the Poet. In the same year, 1925, there are other lines: “You don’t know that life in the world is worth living!”

Yes, in the deserted city alleys, not only stray dogs, “lesser brothers,” but also big enemies listened to Yesenin’s light gait.
We must know the real truth and not forget how childishly his golden head was thrown back... And again his last wheeze is heard:

“My dears, good ones...”

In this work, the author tries to convey to the reader his deep longing for the past for his stepfather’s house in which he grew up and was brought up. Sergei Yesenin glorifies his small homeland, not skimping on vivid images. He loves her for who she is in all her manifestations. He misses his childhood, his mother's warmth and his father's support. Yesenin transforms all his memories into epithets, metaphors and comparisons. So, for example, he calls the place where he was born and grew up Blue Russia, and he compares the gray hair of his father’s beard to the blossom of an apple tree. The inherent expressiveness of the images makes this poem memorable and unique.

The author's cry from the heart tells the reader that with his departure from home, everything around him has changed. The people who surrounded him, the very place where he grew up, and himself. And this greatly upsets him. Yesenin understands that with his departure to Moscow, he will not soon see his relatives. The places where he was happy, that old maple tree to which he dedicated many lines, comparing his thick hair with its foliage.

There is no plot line in this poem, but there is still a certain sequence. In the first lines, the author says that he left his father’s house, then he mentions the sadness of the old woman’s mother and how his father grew old in his absence. And finally, he writes that it will not be long before he meets with his loved ones and relatives.

Despite the small size of the poem, the author was able to saturate it with artistic means: the brightness of images and an unusual style. One example is the moon, spread out on the water like a golden frog.

Although the poem itself is not large, it has everything: longing for one’s homeland, the author’s original style, love and emotion. The poem “I left my birthplace” is a reminder that every person has roots, a home where we were born and raised, and without it we can’t go anywhere. And it is very important to appreciate these memories as a bright and radiant moment in our lives. After all, without a home to which one wants to return, it will be difficult for a person to live in this world.

Analysis of the poem I left Yesenin’s home

Having received a teacher’s diploma, Yesenin does not stay in Konstantinovo to teach children, he decides that in Moscow more possibilities and leaves for the capital. At that time, the author could not think that he would be leaving his native land forever.

At first, the poet missed home very much, and literally everything reminded him of it. Yesenin works a lot in the printing house and at the same time is studying at the university, and this does not allow him to go home to see his mother and father. In 1918, the poet wrote this poem, in which he conveys to readers that the desire for success is deprived of his homeland and family. In the lines, Yesenin expresses that the native country can violate all dreams and very easily turn into an outcast in its homeland.

The poet emphasizes many times that his beloved homeland remains only in memories and everything has changed. The author manages to come home for a few days, but everything has long been different, and he emphasizes this in the lines of the work.

Yesenin already understands that everything he dreamed of in childhood has been destroyed irrevocably and when leaving his home, he focuses on the fact that he will return, but not very soon and this is visible in the work. In the poem, the poet still hopes that his homeland will one day become the same as he remembers from childhood. He believes that his homeland will welcome him with open arms and everything will be as before.

Yesenin compares himself to the maple tree that protects his village. The lines show the pain and bitterness of the war, which brought many victims and changed everything around, and the main thing is that people will no longer be the same. Everyone he knew would no longer be able to be kind and sympathetic, but perhaps they would become party members and be ready to do anything for the sake of the party, but the people are not the main thing, it is necessary to strengthen the position of the party at any cost.

The poet’s work is filled with love for his homeland and at the same time with regret for it, because his homeland is going through difficult times.

S. Yesenin begins with the words “I left my home,” then mentions his mother’s sadness. The poet remembers his father, who is growing old without him. In the third stanza, the author says that he will not soon see his native land. After all, the blizzard will probably continue to ring for a long time.

It should be noted that Yesenin compares the tree, which is called upon to “guard Rus',” with himself. The unity of man with nature is a feature that is inherent in almost all the works of the Russian poet.

The poet and his homeland

The one-legged maple tree suddenly transforms in the last stanza. Now he has amazing features, full of something lofty and lyrical. And most importantly, the poet claims that the tree resembles his own head. It is the maple that becomes a kind of connecting link that will not allow the poet to be alienated from his native land.

The main theme of the poem was the poet’s separation from his native land, mother and father. For Sergei Yesenin, the Motherland is one in all its manifestations. Birches, the moon, an old maple - all this is inseparable from the image of the native land. In every twig, leaf, reflection of the moon in water, the poet sees his Rus'.

The plot of the poem develops in the area of ​​the author's memories. There is no actual storyline here. However, a certain sequence is certainly observed.

In the third stanza, the author writes that he will not return soon, the blizzard will sing over his house for a long time. But the old maple remained in the poet’s homeland.

This poem was created by the author in 1918. Here we are talking about the relationship to the earth, but at the same time there are notes of melancholy and loneliness. This work was published in 1920. It became a model lyrical genre, which is written in a manner unique to Yesenin. In it, the author expresses his thoughts about what his parents are like, how he loves his land.

The poem uses various images, symbols, and definitions of expression. This poem is more related to the Imagist movement. This gives the whole piece a memorable style. The main idea is the poet’s separation from his native land, his relatives. He believes that the Motherland is one: birch trees, the moon, an old tree, every leaf.

The plot is based on the poet's memories. First, Yesenin says that he left his home, left Russia, and his mother. Then he talks about his graying father. In the third part of the poem, the author talks about the future. And he will not return home quickly, but the memories of his native land will never disappear.

Analysis of Yesenin's poem "I left my home..."

In 1912, 17-year-old Sergei Yesenin, receiving a diploma as a rural teacher, refused the opportunity to teach at his native school and went to Moscow to try to get a job at a newspaper. The future poet did not yet suspect that he was leaving the village of Konstantinovo forever. From now on, he will always be a stranger here due to various circumstances.

In the first years of his life in the capital, Yesenin literally raved about his home, but because of his work in the printing house and his studies at the university, he did not have the opportunity to see his father and mother. And after the revolution, he realized that he could never be truly happy in Konstantinovo, where, as in many Russian villages, the way of life had completely changed. In 1918, he wrote the poem “I Left My Home…”, filled with sadness and pain because fate played a cruel joke on him, depriving him of the homeland he idolized. In this work, the author for the first time tried to convey to readers the idea of ​​how easy it is to become an outcast in your own country, which can destroy the childhood illusions of any person.

The first lines of this poem tell us that the poet not only left his small homeland, but also “left blue Rus'.” However, during this period Yesenin was in Russia and could not even imagine that someday he would be able to visit abroad. Then why does he say otherwise? The whole point is that that “blue Rus'” that the poet loved so much has forever remained in the past, and now only exists in the author’s memories. Therefore, Yesenin, who nevertheless went to visit his parents for a few days, notes that even they have changed. So, “like an apple blossom, the gray hair of the father flowed through his beard,” and the mother, exhausted by rumors about her unlucky son and worried about his fate, continues to be sad even when meeting him.

Realizing that the world of children's dreams has been destroyed completely and irrevocably, the poet notes: “I will not return soon, not soon!” Indeed, almost five years would pass before Yesenin visited Konstantinovo again and could hardly recognize his native village. Not because it has changed so much, but because the people themselves have become different, and in their new world there is simply no place for a poet, even such a famous and talented one. But at the moment when these lines were written, Yesenin had something completely different in mind. He was sure that it would not be long before he would be able to see his homeland as it was before the revolution. The author did not imagine that the changes taking place in the country would be so global and large-scale, but he believed that sooner or later everything would fall into place, and his “blue Rus'”, which is guarded by an “old maple on one leg”, will still open her arms to him.

Yesenin also compares himself to an old maple tree. since the new government is little better for him than the previous one. As a peasant son, the poet understands that now his fellow villagers have much more opportunities for self-realization. However, the poet cannot forgive the fact that the very spirit of the village with its originality is being destroyed, people are being forced to change their traditions and views, which were created over generations. Therefore, by drawing a parallel between himself and the maple, the author thereby wants to emphasize that he also stands guard over that old Rus', since it was from its sources that people from time immemorial drew their mental strength. Now, when this source has dried up, Yesenin simply does not recognize his homeland, mired in civil war. And it pains him to realize that after this bloody massacre, people will never be able to be the same - open, reasonable and living according to their conscience, and not at the behest of the party, which is busy not so much with the needs of the people, but with strengthening its own positions and distributing spheres of influence in society.

All these artistic means make it possible to confidently attribute the work to one direction to which the poet belonged.

It is this unique symbolism that instantly makes the style recognizable, and the poem more memorable and non-trivial.

The theme and plot of the poem “I left my birthplace...”

The main topic The poem was the poet's parting with his native land, mother and father. For Sergei Yesenin, the Motherland is one in all its manifestations.

Interestingly, the tree that "guards" Yesenin directly associates Rus' with himself. In the final stanza, the poet writes that with the rain of our leaves, "head" maple looks like it.

We can say that the plot develops logically: readers see that nature and the Motherland are one for the poet, just like man and nature. He left his lands, but left a memory of himself in the form of a maple tree, which reminds him of the gold of its leaves.

Yesenin writes that in maple there is joy for those who kiss "rain" tree leaves. It turns out that the maple has a similar head to the lyrical hero of the poem. It is this tree that becomes a kind of connecting thread that does not allow the connection between the poet and his native land to be broken.

An amazingly vivid poem gives readers an idea of ​​the skill of Sergei Yesenin.

History of creation

The poem was written by a young poet in 1918, when he left his native village, leaving behind everything that was dear to him. Longing for the small Motherland resulted in the lines: “I left my native home, I left blue Rus'.” This work reflects well big picture all the pre-revolutionary lyrics of Yesenin, who loves his native country, worries about its fate, misses his native places. The poem was published at the height of the poet’s fame, because just four years ago it was unknown to the general public.

Subject

The theme of the poem “I Left My Home” is homeland, longing for places familiar from childhood, attachment to home and family. The poet remembers the area in which he lived, vividly describes it: “The birch forest above the pond is three stars,” “The moon is like a golden frog.” Such a description clearly paints us images - of beautiful “blue” Rus' with its amazingly beautiful nature, of a house abandoned by the poet, of parents grieving over their son and visibly aging: “The old mother’s sadness warms her,” “... the gray hair of the father has flowed through his beard.” The poet’s homeland is a birch forest, a yellow moon reflected in the water, an apple blossom, and a maple tree that “guards blue Rus'.”

Composition

It is impossible to single out any plot and its development in the work, but the poet is consistent in his description. So, in the first stanza he tells the reader that he said goodbye to his home and remembers his mother. In the second stanza, Yesenin talks about his father. In the third part, he worries that he will not see his family again soon, since the blizzard will still “sing and ring” for a long time. The poem ends with a description of the image of a maple tree, which for the lyrical hero seems to be the guardian of Rus', the poet’s home. Yesenin associates himself with this with him: “that old maple tree’s head looks like me.” The author does not return to what has already been mentioned, so the composition can be called linear.

Genre

“I left my home” represents lyric poem. The verse consists of four stanzas of four lines each (quatrain). The poet uses different types rhymes: exact (house - pond, water - beard), inaccurate (Rus - sadness, in it - maple), masculine - the emphasis always falls on the last syllable: house, Rus', pond, sadness, moon, water and so on. The rhyme is cross, the first and third, second and fourth lines rhyme.

Means of expression

The poem is written using various artistic means, thanks to which the reader imagines a colorful picture described by the poet.

Yesenin uses a lot metaphors: “the birch tree above the pond is warm... sadness”, “The moon has spread out like a golden frog...”, “gray hair has flowed through my father’s beard.” In addition, there are also personifications: “the blizzard will sing and ring for a long time”, “The old maple on one leg is guarding blue Rus'”, comparison: “Like an apple blossom, gray hair.”

Diverse epithets, used by the author: “blue Rus'”, “Golden frog”, “on still water”.

The method that is characteristic of Yesenin as a poet seems interesting. He associates himself with nature. IN in this case- with a tree: “...that old maple tree’s head looks like me.” This technique not only reflects the poet’s attachment and inseparability from nature, the Russian land, and homeland, but also paints us an image of the poet himself. At the same time, he seems old, has experienced a lot, it is difficult to imagine that this poem was written by a 23-year-old man.
