(3) Write about February sobbingly,

While the rumbling slush

In spring it burns black.

(4) Get the cab. (5) For six hryvnia,

Through the gospel, through the click of the wheels

Travel to where it's raining

Even noisier than ink and tears.

(6) Where, like charred pears,

Thousands of rooks from the trees

They will fall into puddles and collapse

Dry sadness to the bottom of my eyes.

(7) Underneath the thawed patches turn black,

And the wind is torn with screams,

And the more random, the more true

Poems are composed out loud.

Work with text


  • From sentences 4 – 7, write down the comparative adverbs.
  • Among sentences 1 – 7, find complex sentences, parts of which are single-component impersonal sentences . Write down the numbers of these sentences.
  • Determine how the word SCREAMS is formed in sentence No. 7.
  • From sentences 6 – 7, write down a word formed in a suffixal way .

1) anaphora 2) comparison 3) assonance 4) nominative sentence 5) infinitive 6) impersonal offers 7) epithet 8) metaphor 9) alliteration 10) litotes


  • - repetition of the same vowels . It is a powerful means of expressiveness of poetic language. An example from Pushkin’s “Gypsies” - excerpt:

Oh, my youth is fast

Flashed like a falling star.

But you, the time for love has passed

Even faster; only a year

Mariula loved me, -

Once upon a time, near the Kagul waters

We met an alien camp...

  • Throughout this passage it sounds "y" , giving the verse a sad melodiousness.

  • - repetition of the same consonants. Of course, not every repetition of consonants imparts these qualities to speech. The verse is dissonant, despite the presence of the same consonants: “Do not aphids smolder silver and gold?” Alliteration seems to be an artistic technique when the repetition of identical consonants enhances the impression received from a certain combination of words, when this repetition emphasizes a particular mood with its sound. For example, in Lermontov’s poem “Rusa l ka p l s l and along the river l slaughter" (repeated " l " creates the impression of fluidity and smoothness).


IN 1935 Pasternak participates in the work of the International Congress of Writers in Defense of Peace in Paris, where he has a nervous breakdown (his last trip abroad).

On late 20's - early 30's years there was a short period of official Soviet recognition of Pasternak’s work. He takes an active part in the activities of the Union of Writers of the USSR and in 1934 year makes a speech at its first congress, at which N.I. Bukharin called for Pasternak to be officially named the best poet of the Soviet Union.


IN 1935 year Pasternak stood up for Akhmatova’s husband and son. IN 1937 year, refuses to sign a letter approving the execution of Tukhachevsky and others, demonstratively visits the house of the repressed Pilnyak.

IN 1952 Pasternak had his first heart attack.


Novel "Doctor Zhivago" was created over ten years, with 1945 to 1955 year. The novel provides a broad canvas of the life of the Russian intelligentsia against the backdrop of the dramatic period from the beginning of the century to the Civil War. While writing the novel, Pasternak changed its title more than once. The novel could be called "Boys and Girls", "The Candle Was Burning", "The Experience of Russian Faust", "There is No Death" .


The novel was published in 1957 in Italy, then translated into many languages ​​of the world, and in 1958 the author was awarded the Nobel Prize “for outstanding achievements in modern lyric poetry and in the traditional field of great Russian prose.” .


  • In his homeland, Pasternak began to be actively persecuted: he was expelled from membership in the Writers' Union, a whole stream of insults and accusations was organized in newspapers, magazines, and on the radio, he was forced to refuse the Nobel Prize, and there were demands to leave his native land.
  • “I am connected with Russia by birth, life, work. I don’t think of my destiny separately and outside of it,” Pasternak said.

Nobel Prize

I'm lost like an animal in a pen

Somewhere there are people, will, light,

And behind me there is the sound of a chase,

I have no choice.

Dark forest and the shore of a pond,

They ate a fallen log.

The path is cut off from everywhere.

Whatever happens, it doesn't matter.

What kind of dirty trick did I do?

Am I a murderer and a villain?

I made the whole world cry

Over the beauty of my land.

But even so, almost at the grave,

I believe the time will come -

The power of meanness and malice

The spirit of goodness will prevail.

1959


This whole story crippled the writer.

On May 30, 1960, Pasternak passed away. Doctor Zhivago was published in its homeland only in 1988, 33 years after it was written .
