This poem is biographical. It was caused by meetings with Anna Petrovna Kern, who later wrote wonderful memoirs about Pushkin (show the book).

Anna Petrovna lived a difficult life. She was not even 17 years old when she was married to the fifty-two-year-old divisional general Kern. Anna Petrovna submitted to the will of her parents with desperation. She left her husband after 9 years. After his death, Anna Petrovna remarried. She and her husband lived in poverty, but in love and harmony. Anna Petrovna was an outstanding woman: charming, intelligent, educated, with literary abilities.

The first meeting between Pushkin and A.P. Kern took place in 1819 in St. Petersburg at a ball. Pushkin liked Anna Petrovna, he tried to show her signs of attention. But she did not notice him, as she was absorbed in how I. A. Krylov expressively read one of his fables.

Six years later, in the summer of 1825, Anna Petrovna came to visit her aunt at the Trigorskoye estate. Pushkin at that time was in exile in the neighboring estate of Mikhailovskoye. He came to Trigorskoye almost every day. On the day of Anna Petrovna's departure, the poet gave her the 1st chapter of "Eugene Onegin", which contained a sheet with the poem "I remember a wonderful moment ...".

4. Homework

Learn by heart the poem "I remember a wonderful moment ...".

The theme of love in the lyrics of Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin is of particular importance. If Nekrasov, for example, had a Muse, which he identified with a peasant woman, then the “sun of Russian poetry” did not have a Muse as such - but there was love that the poet needs like air, because without love he was not able to create. So the Muses of Pushkin were quite earthly women who once conquered the poet.

It is worth noting that Pushkin was in love many times - often his chosen ones became married women, for example, Elizaveta Vorontsova or Amalia Riznich. Despite the fact that all these high-society ladies were included in the so-called Don Juan list of Pushkin, compiled by him personally, he did not at all assume the closeness of the poet with his beloved, with the exception of spiritual, tender friendship. However, the most famous Muse of Pushkin is Anna Petrovna Kern, to whom the immortal "I remember a wonderful moment ..." is dedicated.

This woman conquered the poet in St. Petersburg, in 1819, at one of the social events. At that time, Kern had already parted with her unloved husband, so an affair began between her and the talented descendant of "Arap Peter the Great", which high society was unable to condemn.

But the epochal poem was created much later, in 1825, when Pushkin meets his former lover again, and his feelings flare up with new force. Like Katerina, who became a ray of light in a dark kingdom, Anna Petrovna revived the poet, gave him the pleasure of a feeling of love, inspiration, gave poetic strength. Thanks to her, one of the most beautiful works of Russian love lyrics was born.

So, the history of its creation is quite well known, which, however, does not prevent literary historians from making other assumptions about the possible addressee of the tender message, including even a certain serf girl Nastenka, about whom, however, nothing is known to Pushkin's diaries, his personal letters, etc. .

It is important to note that the poem is autobiographical in nature, which is why the episodes of the life of the great poet are so easily traced in it, however, the complete identification of the lyrical hero with the author, as well as the lyrical heroine with A.P. Kern, will be incorrect, since the image of the latter, of course, is idealized.

Undoubtedly, the theme of the message "I remember a wonderful moment ..." is an intimate revelation, a love confession. As already mentioned, Pushkin needed love, not necessarily shared. Through his senses, he was able to create. At the same time, the philosophical theme of the meaning of love in human life can also be found in the poem.

"I remember a wonderful moment ..." - plot poem. In it, the lyrical hero meets a beautiful lover who revives the best feelings in his soul, but eventually loses her. Together with the girl, the romantic dreams of the hero, inspiration, the wings fold behind his back. Over the years, the devastation only intensifies, but now the charmer reappears in the life of her beloved, again bringing with her the beautiful, the spiritual.

So, if we transfer this plot to the biography of its author, we note that the first stanza describes the first meeting with Kern in St. Petersburg. The second and third quatrains tell about the southern exile and the period of "imprisonment" in Mikhailovsky. However, there is a new meeting with the Muse, which resurrects the best in the soul of the poet.

The autobiographical nature of the message determines its composition. The means of artistic expression are quite modest, but at the same time picturesque. The poet resorts to epithets (" clean" the beauty, " marvelous» instant, « rebellious"gust of storms, etc.), metaphors (" pure beauty genius», « soul awakening”), personification ( animated gust of storms). Special expressiveness and melody is achieved by using stylistic figures such as antitheses.

So, the hero lives "without a deity, without inspiration", which are resurrected as soon as his beloved returns to his life. In the last quatrain, you can see an anaphora, and in the second - an assonance (“a gentle voice sounded to me for a long time”). The entire poem is written using the inversion technique.

The lyrical heroine of Pushkin is the image of some unearthly creature, angelic, pure and gentle. No wonder the poet compares her with a deity.

"I remember a wonderful moment..." written by Pushkin's favorite 4-foot iambic with a cross alternation of feminine and masculine rhymes.

The amazing tenderness, touchingness of the message to Kern make the romantic work one of the best examples of love lyrics - on a global scale.

This poem was written by the poet in Mikhailovsky in 1825. It is dedicated and addressed to A.P. Kern (P.A. Osipova’s niece), whom Pushkin met in St. Petersburg in 1819. The poet hands this message to the addressee on the day of Anna Kern's departure from the Trigorsky estate, neighboring Pushkin, on July 19, 1925.

Theme, genre and composition of the poem "I remember a wonderful moment"

Of course, the main theme of this masterpiece is love. However, there are also reflections of the young author about philosophical meaning every moment in human life, about the inherent value of each such moment.

The genre of this work is a love letter.

Compositionally, the poem “I remember a wonderful moment” reflects the biography of the author in love. So,

• in the first and second quatrain one can trace the Petersburg period of Pushkin. It must be remembered that the poet met this lady for the first time precisely in 1819.
• And already in the third quatrain - the period of the southern exile of the author is displayed.
• In the fourth - "imprisonment" in Mikhailovsky, where the days of the poet dragged on (without a deity, without inspiration ...)
• Fifth and sixth - a new meeting and "awakening"

This phenomenon of the “genius of pure beauty” gives the poet anew admiration, rapture, enlightenment, and, of course, new lyrical revelations.

Pushkin expresses the omnipotence of love, which cannot be destroyed either by “hopeless sadness” or “anxious worldly fuss.” A wonderful moment of true love can both resurrect and give the meaning of life, it is obviously stronger than any suffering and adversity.

Artistic means of the poem

Pushkin pays special attention to them, in the poem “I remember a wonderful moment” there are not very many, but they are carefully chosen, which gives this lyric both simplicity and sophistication.

Pushkin epithets

"genius of pure beauty", "wonderful moment", "favorite features"

and sublime, and surprisingly harmonious.

The simplicity of the author's image is achieved, at first glance, with familiar, ordinary words, but the special swiftness and passion is conveyed through metaphors. The poet’s love is not destroyed, only “old dreams” can be dispelled by “rebellious impulse storms”.

And the very image of the beloved appears to the poet "like a fleeting vision." These epithets turn the heroine into an unearthly, slightly mysterious, special creature, but at the same time real and tangible.

Interestingly, Pushkin borrowed the image of “pure beauty” from the poet’s teacher, V. Zhukovsky, which turns him into a literary quotation in this poem.

Separately, it should be noted the melodiousness of the work, which is achieved by syntactic means -

In Pushkin's stanzas of this poem, there is an alternation of rhymes:

• Women's - ecstasy-imprisonment
• Men's - beauty-vanity

Rhyming is of a cross type, alliteration is represented by sonorant consonants "l", "m", "n".

All this contributes to the special melody of this work. It is well known that this poem especially attracted numerous musicians. Among the famous ones is a romance, moreover, dedicated by Mikhail Ivanovich to the daughter of that same A. Kern.

The poem "I remember a wonderful moment" is written in the author's favorite size - iambic tetrameter. Each quatrain is an independent rhythmic unit, the transition between them is soft, dimly expressed through rhymes, which unite the whole work into a single amazing lyrical and melodic composition of the verse.

Love is the essence of every human life. It is this feeling that Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin teaches to appreciate in many of his works.

The first meeting between the future lovers took place at a gala reception in 1819. A beautiful woman immediately aroused an ardent passion in the young poet. But the fatal temptress was married at that time. Secular laws did not allow married women to express their feelings.

The coquettish Anna, in turn, did not even pay attention to the unattractive Alexander among the eminent gentlemen. Some statements and remarks of the young man even annoyed her.

Later, he became jealous of her, which he sometimes expressed insultingly. In 1827, Anna separated from her husband and began an affair with her husband's nephew, 20 years her junior.
