"Dances and dancers in Russian and world literature"

...Time to dance.

Old Testament: Ecclesiastes: 3:4.

I. Dancing in Fairy Tales: Confusion

1) A dance teacher was passing along the street at that time. He seemed very graceful. He was long, with a small round head, with thin legs - he looked like either a violin or a grasshopper. His delicate hearing, accustomed to the sad voice of the flute and the gentle words of the dancers, could not bear the loud, cheerful cries of the children.

- Stop screaming! - he got angry. - Is it possible to scream so loudly! You need to express delight with beautiful, melodic phrases... Well, for example...

He struck a pose, but did not have time to give an example. Like any dance teacher, he had the habit of looking mainly down at his feet. Alas! He did not see what was happening above.

The salesman's shoe fell on his head.

2) And so she rushed in a fast airy dance, like a swallow pursued by a kite. Everyone was delighted: she had never danced so wonderfully! Her tender legs were cut as if by knives, but she did not feel this pain - her heart was even more painful. She knew that she had only one evening left to spend with the one for whom she left her family and her father’s house, gave her wonderful voice and endured unbearable torment, which the prince had no idea about.

3) The prince took her to the place of honor and invited her to dance. She danced so well that everyone admired her even more. Soon various sweets and fruits were served. But the prince did not touch the delicacies - he was so busy with the beautiful princess.

And she went up to her sisters, spoke warmly to them and shared the oranges that the prince had treated her to.

The sisters were very surprised at such kindness from the unfamiliar princess.

4) Fritz put his elbows on the table and looked at the wonderful castle with dancing and walking people for a long time. Then he asked:

- Godfather, oh godfather! Let me into your castle!

The court's senior counsel said there was no way this could happen. And he was right: it was stupid of Fritz to ask to go to the castle, which, together with all its golden towers, was smaller than him. Fritz agreed. Another minute passed, gentlemen and ladies were still walking in the castle, children were dancing, the emerald man was still looking out of the same window...

5) She danced beautifully, violently, rhythmically, although there was no music. She either danced a polka, or a Scottish jig, or performed an improvisational dance. And during the break between dances, she politely bowed, squatted and touched the sleepy dark dandelions with her forehead.

- My God! - exclaimed the Cow as her feet began to tap the sea tap dance. - What a strange thing! I always considered dancing an indecent activity. But apparently this is not so, since I dance myself. I'm a perfectly trained cow.

6) She looked at the old lady, who could not live anyway, looked at the red shoes - is this a sin? - then I put them on - and it’s not a problem, and then... I went to the ball and started dancing.

But now she wants to turn to the right - her legs carry her to the left, she wants to make a circle around the hall - her legs carry her out of the hall, down the stairs, into the street and out of town. So she danced all the way to the dark forest.

She was frightened and wanted to take off her shoes, but they sat tightly; she only tore her stockings to shreds; the shoes seemed to have grown to her feet, and she had to dance, dance across fields and meadows, in rain and in sunny weather, both night and day.

7) This must be a very beautiful dance,” timidly noted […]

- Do you wanna take a look? – asked […].

“Very,” said […].

“Get up,” ordered […]. - Let's show her the first figure. It’s okay that there are no lobsters here... We can do without them. Who will sing?

“Sing,” said […]. – I don’t remember the words.

And they danced importantly around […], waving their heads to the beat and not noticing that every now and then they were stepping on her feet.

8) As the guests got up from the table, the music started playing and dancing began. I went […] to dance with […]. She waved her left sleeve - there was a lake, she waved her right - white swans swam across the lake. The king and all the guests were amazed. And when she stopped dancing, everything disappeared: the lake and the swans.

9) Everyone rushed to look for a mate, and an unimaginable crowd arose on the lawn. But then the couples formed, and the whole area began to dance.

[…] and […] began to dance the mambo, and after the third round things started to go smoothly for them, […] grabbed a little mermaid with seaweed in her hair, who kept getting out of step, and […] twirled with the smallest of the little ones , who was incredibly delighted with him. The midges danced alone, and crowds of onlookers rushed to the site from all over the forest, running, crawling and jumping.

No one thought about the flaming comet that flew alone in the black void of the night.

10) But iron shoes had long been prepared for her and placed on burning coals... They were taken with tongs, dragged into the room and placed in front of […]. Then she was forced to put her feet into these red-hot shoes and dance in them until she fell to the ground dead.

Her fresh breath touched my face; sometimes a curl, separated from its comrades in the whirlwind of the waltz, slid along my burning cheek... I made three rounds. (She waltzes surprisingly well).

IV.Dancing in the works of N.V. Gogol

1. Based on these quotes, name Gogol’s works whose characters dance.

1) Each lady made an internal vow to herself to be as charming as possible in dancing and to show in all its splendor the superiority of what she had the most excellent. The postmistress, waltzing, lowered her head to the side with such languor that one actually heard something unearthly. One very kind lady - who did not come at all to dance, due to what happened, as she herself put it, a small pea-shaped incomodity on right leg, as a result of which she even had to put on velvet boots - she could not bear it, however, and made several circles in velvet boots, precisely so that the postmistress would not really take too much into her head.

2) “...You want, woman, to become young - it’s not at all difficult: you just need to dance; look how I dance..." And, having uttered such incoherent speeches, Katerina was already rushing, looking madly in all directions and resting her hands on her hips. She stamped her feet with a squeal; the silver horseshoes rang without measure, without tact. Unbraided black braids fluttered over her white neck. Like a bird, without stopping, she flew, waving her arms and nodding her head, and it seemed as if, exhausted, she would either crash to the ground or fly out of the world.

3) ...Several people even danced the mazurka, and the colonel of the P*** regiment never missed an opportunity to notice this when talking with someone in society. “For me, sir,” he usually said, patting himself on the belly after each word, “many people dance the mazurka; very many, sir; very many, sir.”

4) - Look, damn children! Is this how they dance? This is how they dance! He said, rising to his feet, extending his arms and kicking his heels.

Well, there’s nothing to say, he danced like that, even with the hetman’s wife. We stepped aside, and the horseradish began to twist his feet all over the smooth place that was near the cucumber bed. I only just got there, but I was halfway there, and I wanted to take a walk and throw something of my own into the whirlwind with my feet - my legs wouldn’t rise, and that’s all! What an abyss! I accelerated again, reached the middle - it didn’t take off! whatever you do: it doesn’t take it, and it doesn’t take it! legs like wooden steel!

5) “My fathers!” - the grandfather gasped, having a good look: what kind of monsters! a face on a face, as they say, is not visible. The witches are so dead, as sometimes happens at Christmas when snow falls: they are discharged, smeared, like little ladies at a fair. And everyone, no matter how many of them there were, danced some kind of devilish trope like they were drunk. They raised some dust, God forbid! A baptized person would have trembled at the mere sight of how high the demonic tribe was jumping. Grandfather, despite all his fear, was overcome with laughter when he saw how devils with dog faces, on German legs, wagging their tails, hovered around the witches, like guys around red girls; and the musicians punched their cheeks with their fists, like tambourines, and whistled with their noses, like horns.

6) True, the volost clerk, leaving the tavern on all fours, saw that he had been dancing in the sky for no reason at all for a month, and assured the whole village of this to God.

7) People, on whose gloomy faces, it seemed that a smile had not slipped for centuries, stamped their feet and trembled their shoulders. Everything was rushing. Everyone was dancing. But an even stranger, even more inexplicable feeling would awaken in the depths of the soul when looking at the old women, on whose decrepit faces one could smell the indifference of the grave, jostling between a new, laughing, living person. Carefree! even without childish joy, without a spark of sympathy, which only drunkenness, like the mechanic of his lifeless machine, forces to do something similar to a human one, they quietly shook their drunken heads, dancing along with the merry people.

Both dancers stopped, panting heavily and wiping themselves with cambric handkerchiefs.

2) Now he circled her, now on his right, now on his left hand, now falling on his knees, he circled her around himself, and again he jumped up and rushed forward with such swiftness, as if he intended, without taking a breath, to run across all the rooms ; then suddenly he stopped again and again made a new and unexpected knee.

3) ...As soon as he embraced this thin, mobile figure, and she moved so close to him and smiled so close to him, the wine of her charm went to his head: he felt revived and rejuvenated when, catching his breath and leaving her, he stopped and began to look at the dancers.

4) She raised her hand, smiling, and placed it, without looking at him, on his shoulder […]. […], a master of his craft, confidently, slowly and measuredly, hugging his lady tightly, first set off with her on a glide path, along the edge of the circle, and picked her up at the corner of the hall left hand, turned her, and because of the ever-accelerating sounds of the music, only the measured clicks of the spurs of his fast and dexterous legs could be heard […], and every three bars at the turn, his lady’s fluttering velvet dress seemed to flare up.

3. Which of the characters in the story “Childhood” takes part in these dances?

1) How sweetly she smiled when she gave me her hand in the chaine! How sweetly her brown curls jumped in rhythm on her head, and how naively she made a jete-assemble with her tiny legs! In the fifth figure, when my lady ran across from me to the other side and when I, waiting for the beat, was preparing to do a solo, [...] she seriously pursed her lips and began to look to the side. But in vain she was afraid for me: I boldly made a chasse en avant, chasse en arriere, glissade and, while approaching her, with a playful movement I showed her a glove with two protruding fingers. She laughed terribly and began to scurry across the parquet floor even sweeter.

2) While we were walking straight, things were still going somehow, but at the turn I noticed that if I didn’t take my measures, I would certainly go ahead. To avoid such trouble, I paused, with the intention of doing the same knee that the young man in the first pair did so beautifully. But at that very moment, as I spread my legs and was about to jump, the princess, hastily running around me, looked at my legs with an expression of dull curiosity and surprise. This look killed me. I was so confused that, instead of dancing, I stamped my feet in place, in the strangest way, with no tact or consistency with anything, and finally stopped completely.

[…] ended immediately.

*) You shouldn’t have danced if you didn’t know how! (French)

2) Looking around the hall with a decisive look, I noticed that all the ladies had been taken, with the exception of one large girl standing at the door of the living room. A tall young man approached her, as I concluded, with the aim of inviting her; he was two steps away from her, while I was at the opposite end of the hall. In the blink of an eye, gracefully gliding across the parquet floor, I flew across the entire space separating me from her and, shuffling my foot, in a firm voice invited her to […].

3) I also remember how, when we were making a circle and everyone held hands, she bent her head and, without removing her hand from mine, scratched her nose on her glove.

She placed her left hand bent on his shoulder, and her small feet in pink shoes moved quickly, easily and regularly to the beat of the music on the slippery parquet floor.

“You relax by waltzing with you,” he told her, taking the first slow steps of the waltz. “Lovely, what lightness, precision,” he told her what he told almost all his good friends.

2) She waited with bated breath for the mazurka. It seemed to her that everything should be decided in the mazurka. The fact that during the quadrille he did not invite her to the mazurka did not bother her. She was sure that she was dancing the mazurka with him, as at previous balls, and she refused the mazurka to five people, saying that she was dancing.

3) - Kitty, don’t you dance the mazurka?

“No, no,” said Kitty, her voice trembling with tears.

6. Based on these quotes, name the works of L. Tolstoy and fill in the blanks with the names of the characters who dance:

1) According to the law, so to speak, I did not dance the mazurka with her, but in reality I danced almost all the time with her. She, without embarrassment, walked straight across the hall to me, and I jumped up without waiting for an invitation, and she thanked me with a smile for my insight. When we were brought to her and she did not guess my quality, she, giving her hand not to me, shrugged her thin shoulders and, as a sign of regret and consolation, smiled at me. When they did the mazurka waltz figures, I waltzed with her for a long time, and she, breathing quickly, smiled and said to me: “Encore.” And I waltzed again and again and did not feel my body.

2) It was clear that he had once danced beautifully, but now he was overweight, and his legs were no longer elastic enough for all those beautiful and fast steps that he tried to perform.

3) […], being an official on special assignments, he generally danced; As a judicial investigator, he already danced as an exception.
