And whoever has money, sir, tries to enslave the poor so that his labors will be free more money make money Do you know what your uncle, Savel Prokofich, answered to the mayor? The peasants came to the mayor to complain that he would not disrespect any of them. The mayor began to tell him: “Listen,” he says, Savel Prokofich, pay the men well! Every day they come to me with complaints!” Your uncle patted the mayor on the shoulder and said: “Is it worth it, your honor, for us to talk about such trifles! I have a lot of people every year; You understand: I won’t pay them less than a penny per person, but I make thousands out of this, so that’s good for me!” That's it, sir! And among themselves, sir, how they live! They undermine each other's trade, and not so much out of self-interest as out of envy. They are at enmity with each other; They get drunken clerks into their high mansions, such, sir, clerks that there is no human appearance on him, his human appearance is hysterical. And they, for small acts of kindness, scribble malicious slander against their neighbors on stamped sheets. And for them, sir, a trial and a case will begin, and there will be no end to the torment. They sue and sue here, but they go to the province, and there they are waiting for them and splashing their hands with joy. Soon the fairy tale is told, but not soon the deed is done; they drive them, they drive them, they drag them, they drag them; and they are also happy about this dragging, that’s all they need. “I’ll spend it, he says, and it won’t cost him a penny.” I wanted to depict all this in poetry... B o r i s. Can you write poetry? K u l i g i n. In the old-fashioned way, sir. I read a lot of Lomonosov, Derzhavin... Lomonosov was a sage, an explorer of nature... But he was also from ours, from a simple rank. B o r i s. You would have written it. It would be interesting. K u l i g i n. How is it possible, sir! They will eat you, swallow you alive. I already get enough, sir, for my chatter; I can’t, I like to spoil the conversation! Here's more about family life I wanted to tell you, sir; yes some other time. And there is also something to listen to. Feklusha and another woman enter. F e k l u sha. Blah-alepie, honey, blah-alepie! Wonderful beauty! What can I say! You live in the promised land! And the merchants are all pious people, adorned with many virtues! Generosity and many donations! I’m so pleased, so, mother, completely satisfied!

Yes, at least for you, your lordship, Savel Prokofich. If only, sir, on the boulevard, on clean place, and put it. What's the cost? The consumption is empty: a stone column (shows with gestures the size of each thing), a copper plate, so round, and a hairpin, here’s a straight hairpin (shows with a gesture), the simplest one. I’ll put it all together and cut out the numbers myself. Now you, your lordship, when you deign to go for a walk, or others who are walking, will now come up and see what time it is. And this place is beautiful, and the view, and everything, but it’s as if it’s empty. We, too, your lordship, have travelers who go there to see our views, after all, it is a more pleasant decoration for the eyes. D i k o y. Why are you bothering me with all this nonsense!

I don’t give an account to anyone more important than you. I want to think about you this way, and I think so. For others you fair man, but I think that you are a robber, that’s all. Did you want to hear this from me? So listen! I say I’m a robber, and that’s the end of it! So, are you going to sue me or something? So you know that you are a worm. If I want to have mercy, if I want to crush it. K u l i g i n. God be with you, Savel Prokofich! I, sir, am a small person; it won’t take long to offend me. And I’ll tell you this, your lordship: “And virtue is honored in rags!” D i k o y. Don't you dare be rude to me! Can you hear me! K u l i g i n.

Well, how come you’re not a robber! A thunderstorm is sent to us as punishment, so that we can feel it, but you want to defend yourself, God forgive me, with poles and some kind of rods. What are you, a Tatar, or what? Are you Tatar? Oh, speak up! Tatar? K u l i g i n. Savel Prokofich, your lordship, Derzhavin said: I decay with my body in dust, I command thunder with my mind. D i k o y. And for these words, send you to the mayor, so he will give you a hard time! Hey, honorable ones, listen to what he says! K u l i g i n. There is nothing to do, we must submit! But when I have a million, then I’ll talk. (Waving his hand, he leaves.) D i k o y. Well, are you going to steal from someone? Hold it! Such a fake little man! What kind of person should be with these people? I really don't know. (Addressing the people). Yes, you damned ones will lead anyone into sin!

And you, fool, go and have a look. And it seems! 1st (coming out from under the arches). Stopped! The third phenomenon. Varvara and then Boris. V a r v a r a. It seems he is! BORIS (walks into the back of the stage). Ssssssss BORIS (looks around). Come here. (Beckons with his hand.) B o r i s (enters). What should Katerina and I do? Please tell me! B o r i s. And what? V a r v a r a. It’s a problem, and that’s all. My husband has arrived, do you know that? And they didn’t wait for him, but he arrived. B o r i s. No, I didn't know. V a r v a r a.

Scientist dogs are so on hind legs dancing. But it was impossible to refuse; After all, he would have hit me, and then... (Bazarov turned pale at this very thought; all his pride reared up.) Then he would have to be strangled like a kitten.” He returned to his microscope, but his heart stirred, and the calm necessary for observation disappeared. “He saw us today,” he thought, but was it really he who stood up for his brother like that? And what is the importance of a kiss? There's something else here. Bah! isn't he himself in love? Of course, in love; it's clear as day. What a bind, just think!.. Bad! he finally decided, it was bad no matter how you looked at it. Firstly, you will have to put your face up and, in any case, leave; and here Arkady... and this ladybug, Nikolai Petrovich. Bad, bad." The day passed somehow especially quietly and sluggishly. It was as if the bauble had never existed; she sat in her little room like a mouse in a hole. Nikolai Petrovich looked concerned. He was informed that a brand had appeared in his wheat, which he had especially hoped for. Pavel Petrovich suppressed everyone, even Prokofich, with his chilling politeness. Bazarov began a letter to his father, but tore it up and threw it under the table. “I’ll die, he thought, they’ll find out; Yes, I won't die. No, I’ll be around for a long time yet.” He told Peter to come to him the next day at first light for an important matter; Peter imagined that he wanted to take him with him to Petersburg. Bazarov went to bed late, and all night he was tormented by disordered dreams... Odintsova was spinning in front of him, she was his mother, a cat with black whiskers was following her, and this cat was Fenechka; and Pavel Petrovich seemed to him like a big forest, with which he still had to fight.

I.S. Turgenev “Fathers and Sons” “Here we are at home,” said Nikolai Petrovich, taking off his cap and shaking his hair. “The main thing is now to have dinner and rest.” “It’s really not bad to eat,” Bazarov remarked, stretching, and sank onto the sofa. - Yes, yes, let's have dinner, have dinner quickly. – Nikolai Petrovich stamped his feet for no apparent reason. - By the way, Prokofich. A man of about sixty entered, white-haired, thin and dark, wearing a brown tailcoat with copper buttons and a pink scarf around his neck. He grinned, walked up to Arkady's handle and, bowing to his guest, retreated to the door and put his hands behind his back. “Here he is, Prokofich,” began Nikolai Petrovich, “he has finally come to us... What? how do you find it? - IN in the best possible way, sir“, - said the old man and grinned again, but immediately frowned his thick eyebrows. – Would you like to set the table? – he said impressively. - Yes, yes, please. But won’t you go to your room first, Evgeny Vasilich? - No, thank you, there is no need. Just order my suitcase to be stolen there and these clothes,” he added, taking off his robe. - Very good. Prokofich, take their overcoat. (Prokofich, as if in bewilderment, took Bazarov’s “clothes” with both hands and, raising it high above his head, walked away on tiptoe.) And you, Arkady, will you go to your place for a minute? “Yes, we need to clean ourselves,” Arkady answered and headed towards the door, but at that moment a man of average height, dressed in a dark English suit, a fashionable low tie and patent leather ankle boots, Pavel Petrovich Kirsanov, entered the living room. He looked about forty-five years old: his short-cropped White hair shone with a dark shine, like new silver; his face, bilious, but without wrinkles, unusually regular and clean, as if carved with a thin and light incisor, showed traces of remarkable beauty; The light, black, oblong eyes were especially beautiful. The whole appearance of Arkadiev's uncle, graceful and thoroughbred, retained youthful harmony and that desire upward, away from the earth, which for the most part disappears after the twenties. Pavel Petrovich took his trousers out of his pocket beautiful hand with long pink nails - a hand that seemed even more beautiful from the snowy whiteness of the sleeve, fastened with a single large opal, and handed it to his nephew. Having previously performed the European “shake hands,” he kissed him three times, in Russian, that is, touched his cheeks with his fragrant mustache three times, and said: “Welcome.” Nikolai Petrovich introduced him to Bazarov: Pavel Petrovich slightly tilted his flexible figure and smiled slightly, but did not offer his hand and even put it back in his pocket. “I already thought that you wouldn’t come today,” he spoke in a pleasant voice, swaying courteously, twitching his shoulders and showing his beautiful white teeth. - Did something happen on the road? “Nothing happened,” answered Arkady, “so, we hesitated a little.” I.S.

I.S. Turgenev “Fathers and Sons” Site materials used
At the very edge of the village of Mironositsky, in the barn of the elder Prokofy, the belated hunters settled down for the night. There were only two of them: the veterinarian Ivan Ivanovich and the gymnasium teacher Burkin. Ivan Ivanovich had a rather strange, double surname– Chimsha-Himalayan, which did not suit him at all, and throughout the entire province they called him simply by his first and patronymic; he lived near the city at a horse farm and now came to hunt to breathe clean air. The gymnasium teacher Burkin visited Counts P. every summer and in this area had long been his own man.
We didn't sleep. Ivan Ivanovich, a tall, thin old man with a long mustache, was sitting outside at the entrance and smoking a pipe; the moon illuminated him. Burkin lay inside on the hay, and he was not visible in the darkness.
They told different stories. Among other things, they said that the headman’s wife, Mavra, a healthy and intelligent woman, had never been anywhere further than her native village in her entire life, had never seen either the city or railway, and in the last ten years I kept sitting behind the stove and only went out at night.
– What's surprising here!- said Burkin. – There are many people in this world who are lonely by nature, who, like a hermit crab or a snail, try to retreat into their shell. Perhaps this is a phenomenon of atavism, a return to the time when the ancestor of man was not yet a social animal and lived alone in his den, or maybe this is just one of the varieties of human character– who knows? I am not a natural scientist and it is not my place to touch upon such issues; I just want to say that people like Mavra are not uncommon. Well, it’s not far to look, two months ago a certain Belikov, a teacher, died in our city Greek language, my comrade. You've heard about him, of course. He was remarkable in that he always, even in very good weather, went out in galoshes and with an umbrella and certainly in a warm coat with cotton wool. And he had an umbrella in a case, and a watch in a gray suede case, and when he took out a penknife to sharpen a pencil, his knife was also in a case; and his face, it seemed, was also in a cover, since he kept hiding it in his raised collar. He wore dark glasses, a sweatshirt, stuffed his ears with cotton wool, and when he got into the cab, he ordered the top to be raised. In a word, this man had a constant and irresistible desire to surround himself with a shell, to create for himself, so to speak, a case that would seclude him and protect him from external influences. Reality irritated him, frightened him, kept him in constant anxiety, and, perhaps, in order to justify this timidity of his, his aversion to the present, he always praised the past and what never happened; and the ancient languages that he taught were for him, in essence, the same galoshes and umbrella where he hid from real life.
