    The Leo Tolstoy's fairy tale monologue about "military prose"

  The Leo Tolstoy's fairy tale monologue about a "military prose"
  
  
  Leo Tolstoy with interest read the poem by Mikhail Lermontov. One officer with interest got acquainted with the work written by the other fighting officer.
  
  'И жизнь всечасно кочевая,
  Труды, заботы ночь и днем,
  Все, размышлению мешая,
  Приводит в первобытный вид
  Больную душу: сердце спит,
  Простора нет воображенью...
  И нет работы голове...'
  "And life is hourly nomadic,
  Labors, cares night and day,
  All, reflection hampering the,
  Leads the sick soul
  To a primitive form: heart sleeps,
  There is no scope to imagination ...
  Also there is no work for the mind ..."
  
  Poetically described...
  
  But all was not so poetic.
  
  Here are the memories of the other officer.
  
  "Lermontov gathered some gang of dirty thugs ... It did not last long, however, because Lermontov could not sit anywhere, always torn to somewhere and did not bring anything to the positive completion. He disgusted me with his unusual untidiness. He wore a red canaus shirt, which seems to have never erased and looked blackened from under the ever-unbuttoned coat of the poet, who wore it without epaulettes ... Lermontov pranced on a white, like snow, horse ... ... rushed on horseback to the protective structures made of felled trees?! We laughed at him for it'
  
  In fact, how he can to rush on horseback to the protective construction made of the cut-down trees?
  
  Tolstoy continued reflection.
  
  The Vladimir Bogomolov's novel 'In the August of '44' ('The Moment of Truth')... A lot of episodes which, taken separately, and "commented", are capable to create impression of some theater of absurdity. One of the characters remembers how he led many hours of observation in the cold from an abandoned toilet in the middle of the yard. Or - the search for a sapper shovel... The search long, mass, and, as it might seem, meaningless. Or - the lack of chairs, seats at the meeting of the generals... and so on... but the novel - eventually - shows the reader a completely different reality... in many of the heroes of this novel there is pride for himself and for comrades, a tremendous energy of victory...
  
  ...These are the people of the knightly spirit...
  
  But this, nevertheless, events are not close...
  
  And if we turn to other events?
  
  Here, for example, the circumstances, which the one of participants of the Crimean war remembered:
  
  "I ask you, young man," - began the managing director in an instructive tone, - " how much will you pay me for the money I order to release for your brigade's battery?" Usually pay me eight percent and more, but you, artillerymen, the people stubborn. Artillerymen like to bargain. Well, from you it is possible to take cheaper... However I warn: I won't take less than six percent for anything, it is impossible..."
  Such shameless and cool robbery has exasperated me".
  
  Tolstoy's fingers have accidentally touched one of sheets of the manuscript. He has much written about the Crimean war too.
  
  "More than once I saw near Sevastopol when as during truce Russian and French soldiers, without understanding the words of each other, after all friendly, brotherly smiled met, doing signs, patting each other shoulder or a belly. As far as these people were above those people who arranged wars, and stopped truce during war, and inspiring people that they aren't brothers, and hostile members of the different people, forced them to kill each other again."
  
  Yes ...
  
  More and more of a literate people. If everyone is literate, then, of course, some educated people - those, who gained a fighting experience. And among them - there are people with literary abilities...
  
  Eventually, if to simplify, the problem consists in the outlook wide scope? Or - in capacity of a talent? Or - in a life experience?.
  
  Someone, - we will believe in this statement, - have seen a dirty shirt and slovenliness ... Other by the power of talent have created a beautiful poetic image. The third in a set of circumstances and documents, in the meat grinder of multimillion war has seen
  
  'Надежды лучшие и голос благородный
  Неверием осмеянных страстей'.
  "Hopes the best and voice noble
  of Passions, which were later discredited with a disbelief".
  
  What about abroad?
  
  The question is not a simple... Take the specific example... and look in the encyclopedias...
  
  ... The gifted artist, having been wrecked in private life, finds death in the battlefield in the ranks of colonial troops. ... Espionage activity of the boy ... ... for the benefit ... empires is sung. ... Draws everyday life of soldiers, petty officials, their devotion to a debt to the empire. Criticizing ... colonial administration ..., reproaching ... the government and military command in inattention to the lower ranks ... ... makes an impression of impartial objectivity of the views. However his creativity is extremely tendentious in the statement of a "civilizing" mission ... The heavy "burden" ... A little seperatly there are two well-known "Books of the Jungle" ... ("The Jungle Book", 1894 - 95) in which ... acts as the initiator of "stories about animals", where the capitalist law of competition is proved by the animal law"survival of a strong".
  
  Yes it is possible to find both other examples, and other statements in encyclopedias ...
  
  In general, war - a terrible thing. What happens to the person who passes through her? Great Northern War (1700-1721) lasted about 20 years. Events there was a set. A set of options - as it is possible to group these events. How to interpret ... How to estimate ...
  
  Dmitry Sergeyevich Merezhkovsky showed in the one way the image of Peter the Great . And Aleksey Nikolayevich Tolstoy - in the another way...
  
  Aleksey Nikolayevich... Peter I. The 'window' in Europe... The European way of life... The Navy... Education...
  
  Let's say there are readers who can read with interest the works by D. S. Merezhkovsky and the works by A. N. Tolstoy...
  
  A. N. Tolstoy wrote "The Adventures of Buratino or The Golden Key".
  
  ...About a cat Leopold is not a bad idea...
  
  From memory the reminiscence was rising up: "mongoose". Family, - parents, children, the house, the garden, the mongoose ... The mongoose protects children. Question " to protect or not to protect?" not even worth it ... And about a hostilities or an armed confrontation - not a one a word... Just - the children's tale... How is it? "No questions"? Even if "no one step backwards", there are still questions: is not it too simplistic? towards the left Bank of the Volga heavy artillery was transported? the artillery fist was created? so a maneuver was needed?.. "Having passed school of a newspaper essay ..." Here, perhaps, the other school ... If to take since the time of Julius Caesar, - 2 thousand years ... Since 1215 - from acceptance of the Magna Carta Libertatum - 800 years ...
  
  Long it is possible to reflect ...
  
  Tolstoy has switched from philosophical reflections to continuation of writing of the literary work.
  
  So ... The Story "Demoted" (1853-1856) ["Meeting a Moscow Acquaintance in the Detachment" ("Разжалованный", 1856)] [Person, was stripped of his officer's rank and became an ordinary soldier]. From "The Caucasian memories"...
  
  "-Because I'm an abomination, this life has destroyed me, everything that in me was, everything is killed." - Tolstoy has written down the statement of one of the characters.
  
  "Probably, he became worried at the cold.
  
  - What here ... is walking?
  
  I didn't answer and silently have got out to the road."
  
  'The "Demoted" story do not pass',- Leo Tolstoy noted in the Diary on December 2, 1856, referring to the censorship.
  
  The story didn't make the great success. The story "was accepted coldly", - Wikipedia (rus) specifies, making a reference to the correspondence of Leo Tolstoy's contemporaries.
