The Great Patriotic War is one of the defining events in the history of our country. There is practically no family that is not affected by this tragedy. Great Theme Patriotic War became one of the main themes not only in literature, but also in cinematography, fine arts XX century. In the very first days of the war, essays by war correspondents and works by writers and poets who found themselves on the battlefields appeared. A huge amount was written

number of stories, novellas and novels about the war. The story of Boris Lvovich Vasiliev “And the dawns here are quiet ...” is one of the most lyrical works about war. The events of the story take place in 1942 in the north of Russia, in a battalion where fate, after being wounded, threw the main character, Sergeant Major Vaskov. The Hero is appointed to command a “female” platoon of female anti-aircraft gunners. The author draws different women, not similar friends against each other, but united by one goal - the fight against the enemy of the Motherland. As fate would have it, the heroines found themselves in a war where a woman had no place. Each of the girls has already faced death, the pain of loss. Hatred for their enemies is what motivates them, what gives them strength to fight.

Rita Osyanina - commander of the first squad of the platoon. Her husband, a border guard, died on the second day of the war “in a morning counterattack,” and her son lives with his parents. Rita hates her enemies “quietly and mercilessly.” She is stern, reserved, strict with herself and other fighters.

Zhenya Komelnova is a bright beauty, tall, red-haired. Zhenya, like Rita, also has “ personal scores"to the fascists. The whole family was shot before her eyes. After this tragedy, Zhenya found herself at the front. Despite this, the heroine retained her natural cheerfulness. She is sociable and mischievous, funny and flirtatious.

Lisa Brichkina is the daughter of a forester. She grew up early, cared for her sick mother for five years, ran a household, and managed to work on a collective farm. The war prevented the heroine from entering a technical school. Liza is thorough, like a peasant, knows and loves the forest, is not afraid of any work, and is always ready to help her friends.

Sonya Gurvich is a girl from a “very large and very friendly” family. Her father was a doctor in Minsk. The girl studied at the university for a year, but the war began, her lover went to the front, and Sonya also could not stay at home.

Sonya knows nothing about the fate of the family who found themselves in Nazi-occupied Minsk. She lives in hope that they managed to survive, although she understands that this hope is illusory. Sonya is smart and educated, “an excellent student at school and university,” speaks perfect German, and loves poetry.

Galya Chetvertak was brought up in orphanage, she is a foundling. Maybe that’s why she lives in an imaginary world, invents a “health worker” for herself, and maybe lies. In fact, this is not a lie, says the author, but “desires presented as reality.” Dreamy by nature

the girl entered the library technical school. And when she was in her third year, the war began. Gala was rejected by the military registration and enlistment office because she did not fit in either height or age, but she showed remarkable perseverance and “I’m fine.”

exceptions” she was sent to the anti-aircraft unit.

The heroines are not alike. It is these girls that Sergeant Major Vaskov takes with him to follow the Germans. But it turns out there are not two enemies, but much more. As a result, all the girls die, leaving only

sergeant major Death overtakes the heroines in different situations: both through negligence in a swamp, and in an unequal battle with enemies. Vasiliev admires their heroism. It cannot be said that girls are unfamiliar with the feeling of fear. The impressionable Galya Chetvertak is very frightened by the death of Sonya Gurvich. But the girl manages to overcome fear, and this is her strength and courage. At the moment of death, none of the girls complains about fate, does not blame anyone. They understand that their lives were sacrificed in the name of saving the Motherland. The author emphasizes the unnaturalness of what is happening when a woman, whose purpose is to love, give birth and raise children, is forced to kill. War is an abnormal state for a person.

The main character of the story is Sergeant Major Fedot Vaskov. He comes from a simple family, studied until the fourth grade and was forced to leave school because his father died. Nevertheless, he later graduated from the regimental school. Personal life

Vaskova was unsuccessful: his wife ran away with the regimental veterinarian, and little son died. Vaskov has already fought in war, was wounded, and has awards. The girl fighters at first laughed at their simple-minded commander, but soon appreciated his courage, directness, and warmth. He tries in every possible way to help the girls who are coming face to face with the enemy for the first time. Rita Osyanina asks Vaskov to take care of her son. Many years later, an elderly foreman and Rita’s adult son will install a marble slab at the site of her death. The images of enemies are drawn by the author schematically and laconically. These are not specific people; their characters and feelings are not described by the author. These are fascists, invaders who have encroached on the freedom of another country. They are cruel and merciless. This

the image of enemies was typical for early works about war. The reader feels neither pity nor sympathy for them. In the story by B. L. Vasiliev “And the dawns here are quiet ...” we will not find descriptions of battles, we will not get acquainted with the images of outstanding military leaders, we will not find a description of pathetic self-sacrifice in the name of the Motherland. This is a story about another feat that remained unknown to the general public, not noted high awards. This is a feat of beautiful young women who sacrificed themselves, fulfilled their duty to the Motherland to the end, in the struggle for the freedom of their country, for happy life future generations.

The story “The Dawns Here Are Quiet,” written by Boris Lvovich Vasiliev (life: 1924-2013), first appeared in 1969. The work, according to the author himself, is based on a real military episode, when, after being wounded, seven soldiers who served railway, did not allow the German sabotage group to blow it up. After the battle, only one sergeant, the commander of the Soviet fighters, managed to survive. In this article we will analyze “And the dawns here are quiet”, we will describe summary this story.

War is tears and grief, destruction and horror, madness and the extermination of all living things. She brought misfortune to everyone, knocking on every house: wives lost their husbands, mothers lost their sons, children were forced to be left without fathers. Many people went through it, experienced all these horrors, but they managed to survive and win the hardest war ever endured by humanity. Let's start the analysis of "And the Dawns Here Are Quiet" with brief description events, commenting on them along the way.

Boris Vasiliev served as a young lieutenant at the beginning of the war. In 1941, he went to the front while still a schoolboy, and two years later was forced to leave the army due to severe shell shock. Thus, this writer knew the war firsthand. Therefore it best works- precisely about her, about the fact that a person manages to remain human only by fulfilling his duty to the end.

In the work “And the Dawns Here Are Quiet,” the content of which is war, it is felt especially acutely, since it is turned on an unusual side for us. We are all used to associating men with her, but here the main characters are girls and women. They stood up against the enemy alone in the middle of Russian land: lakes, swamps. The enemy is hardy, strong, merciless, well armed, and many times outnumbers them.

The events take place in May 1942. A railway siding and its commander are depicted - Fyodor Evgrafych Vaskov, a 32-year-old man. The soldiers arrive here, but then start partying and drinking. Therefore, Vaskov writes reports, and in the end they send him anti-aircraft gunner girls under the command of Rita Osyanina, a widow (her husband died at the front). Then Zhenya Komelkova arrives, replacing the carrier killed by the Germans. All five girls had their own character.

Five different characters: analysis

“And the Dawns Here Are Quiet” is a work that describes interesting female images. Sonya, Galya, Lisa, Zhenya, Rita - five different, but in some ways very similar girls. Rita Osyanina is gentle and strong-willed, distinguished by spiritual beauty. She is the most fearless, courageous, she is a mother. Zhenya Komelkova is white-skinned, red-haired, tall, with childish eyes, always laughing, cheerful, mischievous to the point of adventurism, tired of pain, war and painful and long love for a married and distant man. Sonya Gurvich is an excellent student, a refined poetic nature, as if she came out of a book of poems by Alexander Blok. She always knew how to wait, she knew that she was destined for life, and it was impossible to avoid it. The latter, Galya, always lived more actively in the imaginary world than in the real one, so she was very afraid of this merciless terrible phenomenon that is war. “And the Dawns Here Are Quiet” portrays this heroine as a funny, never-grown-up, clumsy orphanage girl. Escape from orphanage, notes and dreams... oh long dresses, solo parts and general worship. She wanted to become new love Orlova.

The analysis of “And the Dawns Here Are Quiet” allows us to say that none of the girls were able to fulfill their desires, because they did not have time to live their lives.

Further developments

The heroes of “The Dawns Here Are Quiet” fought for their homeland like no one had ever fought before. They hated the enemy with all their souls. The girls always followed orders precisely, as young soldiers should. They experienced everything: losses, worries, tears. Right before the eyes of these fighters they died good friends, but the girls held on. They fought to the death until the very end, did not let anyone through, and there were hundreds and thousands of such patriots. Thanks to them, it was possible to defend the freedom of the Motherland.

Death of Heroines

These girls had different deaths, just as they were different life paths, which the heroes of “And the Dawns Here Are Quiet” followed. Rita was wounded by a grenade. She understood that she could not survive, that the wound was fatal, and she would have to die painfully and for a long time. Therefore, gathering the rest of her strength, she shot herself in the temple. Galya's death was as reckless and painful as she herself - the girl could have hidden and saved her life, but she did not. One can only guess what motivated her then. Perhaps just momentary confusion, perhaps cowardice. Sonya's death was cruel. She did not even manage to understand how the blade of the dagger pierced her cheerful young heart. Zhenya’s is a little reckless and desperate. She believed in herself until the very end, even when she was leading the Germans away from Osyanina, and did not doubt for a moment that everything would end well. Therefore, even after the first bullet hit her in the side, she was only surprised. After all, it was so implausible, absurd and stupid to die when you were only nineteen years old. Lisa's death happened unexpectedly. It was a very stupid surprise - the girl was pulled into the swamp. The author writes that until the last moment the heroine believed that “there will be tomorrow for her too.”

Sergeant Major Vaskov

Sergeant Major Vaskov, whom we have already mentioned in summary“And the dawns here are quiet,” in the end he remains alone in the midst of torment, misfortune, alone with death and three prisoners. But now he has five more strength. What was human in this fighter, the best, but hidden deep in the soul, was suddenly revealed. He felt and worried both for himself and for his girls “sisters”. The foreman laments, he does not understand why this happened, because they need to give birth to children, not die.

So, according to the plot, all the girls died. What guided them when they went into battle, not sparing their own lives, defending their land? Perhaps just a duty to the Fatherland, to one’s people, perhaps patriotism? Everything was mixed up at that moment.

Sergeant Major Vaskov ultimately blames himself for everything, and not the fascists he hates. His words that he “put all five down” are perceived as a tragic requiem.

Conclusion

Reading the work “And the Dawns Here Are Quiet,” you involuntarily become an observer of the everyday life of anti-aircraft gunners at a bombed crossing in Karelia. This story is based on an episode that is insignificant in the enormous scale of the Great Patriotic War, but it is told in such a way that all its horrors appear before the eyes in all their ugly, terrible inconsistency with the essence of man. It is emphasized both by the fact that the work is titled “And the Dawns Here Are Quiet” and by the fact that its heroes are girls forced to participate in the war.

In the viewer’s perception, “The Dawns Here Are Quiet” became the final, third film about the fate of a woman in the war, made on the eve of the 70th anniversary of the victory in the Great Patriotic War. And if past works “Battalion” and “Battle for Sevastopol” professed the concept “based on real events", here the creators decided to go a little further and aimed at a film adaptation of the cult story Boris Vasiliev, which is still an integral part of the patriotic school curriculum. Dozens of critics immediately attacked the film, trying to compare it with the Soviet film adaptation, and studied every scene from head to toe, looking for inaccuracies and plot inconsistencies with the original. Anticipating attacks, the performer of one of the roles arrived in Krasnodar for the pre-premiere screening Christine Asmus(as well as film crew in her video message), tried to convey to the viewer that the new film adaptation should be compared with the film Stanislava Rostotskovo incorrect. They say that they all love it very much and consider it an ageless classic of Soviet cinema, but in their work they tried more to rely on the literary source. The worst thing is that if, in comparison with the film from 30 years ago, the picture Renata Davletyarova It could at least somehow justify its existence by the fashion for remakes, but if you look at it through the prism of a well-known story, it simply does not stand up to any criticism. And the point here is not at all that making films based on old books has long become a criminal bad manners.

The plot of the film initially tries to thoroughly follow the original source in everything. Here are five brave anti-aircraft gunner girls, just as green and frightened by the war approaching behind them. Here is their brave commander Fedot Vaskov, still in the same peasant way, singingly teaching them wisdom. The Germans, who landed ten kilometers from their location to commit sabotage at an important transport junction in the White Sea Canal area, also did not disappear. As in the story, in the end only the notorious commander will remain alive, who will then carry the burden of responsibility for the fate of his charges throughout his life, whom he could not save from the merciless fate of a woman in war. All ingredients are properly served, cut and mixed. Only, in the end, what appears before the audience is not a piercing drama of human characters, but beautifully filmed shooting scenes with guys in German uniform. But as always.

The main and, perhaps, fatal mistake of the director and screenwriter of the film was, strange as it may seem, precisely the attempt to thoroughly adapt the film adaptation to the original source. “The Dawns Here Are Quiet” was written during the reigning policy of socialist realism, when in their works the authors tried to criticize the government/war/compatriots on the sly, with the help of omissions and transparent hints. It was Vasiliev who was one of the first who tried to abandon heroic-sublime pathos in his story military prose, turning not to loud slogans, but to the characters of his characters, through whom the full horror of the lawlessness that was happening on Soviet soil was shown. Davletyarov, while filming his film, for some reason paid great attention to the first feature, but decided not to give a damn about the second.

For some reason, the film carefully preserved many moments from the book that would seem completely incomprehensible and simply strange to a modern viewer. So, for example, for some reason the famous scene in which the girls decide to hold a Komsomol meeting right on the battlefield in order to condemn their cowardly friend was transferred without changes, and Vaskov nipped the initiative in the bud. It was clear to the Soviet reader that Vasiliev wanted to show a rebellion against nomenklatura cowardice, to concentrate attention on the universal, and not the party-dogmatic. The current viewer simply will not understand her, thinking that the brave commander simply decided to rein in the talkative women. And there are a great many such scenes here.

But Davletyarov was categorically unable to make each participant in the story a full-fledged personality. Yes, we are shown flashbacks in which the fate of each heroine is described, we seem to begin to sympathize with them, but for some reason there is no emotional return to the characters. In addition, the writers made some adjustments to the girls’ biographies. Yes, orphan Galya Chetvertak turned out to be the daughter of a mother repressed in '37, in Sonya Gurvich turned into the true image of a somewhat embittered Soviet power intellectuals. The message of the authors of the new film adaptation is clear: they say, love and protect your homeland, despite the fact that it has not given you anything good in life, and even worse - it has broken everything that was best for you. But due to such a change in perspective and attitude towards the original source, for some reason nothing remains but bravura patriotism. The unfortunate actresses are trying their best to portray some emotions on the screen, but the director does not need this at all. Instead of the personal tragedy of individual participants in the war, we were shown classic propaganda soaked in cheap patriotic dogmas. And after this there is no need to talk about any adherence to the letter of the original.

While watching the film, I couldn’t shake the feeling that the director was simply squeezing creativity out of himself in every scene and, worst of all, there seemed to be nothing new to tell him. In all his interviews, Renat Davletyarov never tired of emphasizing that he did not make his film for critics. The main audience, in his opinion, is “the youth with whom we speak in a language they understand.” But all that he was able to say “on his own” was only the external form, but not the content. Yes, the film was shot in a truly modern way, it is clear that domestic filmmakers managed to last decade cut his teeth on big-budget films. But if youth-friendly language is simply a good production, then I have bad news for the director: it’s not enough to make new audiences fall in love with this old story.

sixty s extra years back on the Russian people suddenly fell terrible tragedy. War is destruction, poverty, cruelty, death. War means thousands of people tortured, killed, tortured in camps, millions of crippled destinies.

We are accustomed to the fact that in war there is no place for sentimentality and tenderness, and the word “hero” in our understanding is necessarily a fighter, a soldier, in a word, a man. Everyone knows the names: Zhukov, Rokossovsky, Panfilov and many others, but few people know the names of those girls who went straight from the prom to the war, without whom, perhaps, there would have been no Victory.

Few people know that nurses, our peers, pulled wounded soldiers from the battlefield to the whistle of bullets. If for a man the defense of the Fatherland is a duty, a sacred duty, then the girls went to the front voluntarily. They were not accepted because of their young age, but they went anyway. They went and mastered professions that had previously been considered only for men: pilot, tanker, anti-aircraft gunner... They went and killed enemies no worse than men. It was difficult for them, but they still went.

A lot of works have been written about the Great Patriotic War, which show without embellishment all the difficulties that people faced during the war, but most of all I was shocked by B. Vasiliev’s story “And the Dawns Here Are Quiet...”.

Boris Vasiliev is one of those writers who himself went through difficult roads war, who defended native land with weapons in hands. In addition, he wrote many stories about what he had to endure during the difficult years at the front. And this is the experience of an eyewitness, and not the speculation of the creator.

The story “The Dawns Here Are Quiet...” tells us about the distant war years. The action takes place in May 1942. The main character, Fedot Evgrafovich Baskov, according to “ at will"receives a female anti-aircraft machine gun battalion: "Send in non-drinkers... Non-drinkers and this... So, you know, about the female sex...”. The girls have a low opinion of their foreman and constantly make fun of him, calling him “a mossy stump.” And indeed, at thirty-two years old, Sergeant Major Basque was “older than himself,” he was a man of few words, but he knew and could do a lot.

All girls are not alike. The assistant sergeant, Sergeant Rita Osyanina, is a strict girl who rarely laughs. Of the pre-war events, she remembers most vividly school evening, when she met her future husband, Senior Lieutenant Osyanin. He was shy, like herself, they danced together, talked... Rita got married, gave birth to a son, and “there simply couldn’t have been a happier girl.” But then the war began, and this happy fate was not destined to continue. Senior Lieutenant Osyanin died on the second day of the war, in a morning counterattack. Rita learned to hate, quietly and mercilessly, and, deciding to avenge her husband, she went to the front.

The complete opposite of Osyanina is Zhenya Komel-kova. The author himself never ceases to admire her: “tall, red-haired, white-skinned. And the children’s eyes: green, round, like saucers.” Zhenya’s family: mother, grandmother, brother - the Germans killed everyone, but she managed to hide. She ended up in the women's battery for having an affair with a married commander. Very artistic, emotional, she always attracted male attention. Her friends say about her: “Zhenya, you should go to the theater...”. Despite personal tragedies, Komelkova remained cheerful, mischievous, sociable and sacrificed her life for the sake of others, to save her wounded friend.

Vaskov immediately liked the fighter Lisa Brichkina. Fate did not spare her either: from childhood she had to manage the household herself, since her mother was very ill. She fed the cattle, cleaned the house, and cooked food. She became increasingly alienated from her peers. Lisa began to shy away, keep silent, and avoid noisy companies. One day her father brought a hunter from the city to the house, and she, seeing nothing but her sick mother and the house, fell in love with him, but he did not reciprocate her feelings. When leaving, he left Lisa a note with a promise to place her in a technical school with a dormitory in August... But the war did not allow these dreams to come true! Lisa also dies; she drowns in the swamp, rushing to the aid of her friends.

There are so many girls, so many destinies: everyone is different. But in one thing they are still similar: all destinies were broken and disfigured by the war. Having received an order not to let the Germans get to the railway, the girls own lives fulfilled it. All five girls who went on the mission died, but they died heroically, for their Motherland.

“And the dawns here are quiet...” - significant in content artistic canvas, a work of deep civic and patriotic sound. In 1975, for this story B. Vasiliev was awarded State Prize THE USSR.

Every year, people's attitudes towards the events of the war change; many of us began to forget about the exploits that our grandparents performed for the sake of the future of their children. Thanks to the authors of that time, we can still study works and delve into the chronicle of history. Boris Vasiliev's work "And the dawns here are quiet..." was dedicated to people who went through a brutal war, who unfortunately did not return home, as well as to their friends and comrades. This book can be called a memory, because the events described in it are close to everyone who keeps the memory of the Great Patriotic War.

The work described the fates of five female anti-aircraft gunners, as well as their commander, the actions took place during the Great Patriotic War. Reading this story, I was completely imbued with sympathy for the main characters, because they had not even had time to feel the taste of life. The main characters are Sonya Gurvich, Rita Osyanina, Zhenya Komelkova, Galya Chetvertak, Lisa Brichkina, young girls who have just begun to live, they are bright, cheerful and real. But each of them had the role of dying in the fight for the defense of their Motherland, for love for it and the future. They fought for freedom, but they themselves were cruelly punished by fate, because the war destroyed their plans for life, without giving even a drop of something bright. This terrible events divided their lives into two periods, and they simply had no other choice but to take weapons into their tender hands.

Fedot Vaskov was another main character; the author very soulfully described the bitterness and pain that Fedot experienced for each of the girls. He was the embodiment of a real soldier, brave and courageous, he understood that a girl should be at home, next to her children and home, and not fight. You can see how madly he wants to take revenge on the Nazis for what they did to young girls.

Boris Vasiliev used in his work what he saw and felt himself, so the story contains clear descriptions of the events of the war. Thanks to this, the reader is able to immerse himself in the atmosphere of those very terrible forties. I felt the horror of that time, and realized that the war did not choose who to kill, it was children and adults, both old and young, someone’s husband was killed, someone’s son or brother.

Despite all the pain of what is happening, in the end the author makes it clear that no matter what happens, good will still triumph over evil. These five girls who gave their lives for their Motherland will forever remain in our hearts and will be heroes of the Great War.

Topics covered by the work And the Dawns Here Are Quiet

1) Heroism and dedication

It would seem that just yesterday these women were schoolgirls rushing to class, but today they are young and brave fighters who fight in the same column with men. But they go into battle not because of coercion from the state or loved ones, the girls go there out of love for their homeland. As history shows us to this day, these girls made a huge contribution to the country's victory.

2) Woman at war

But the most main meaning of Vasiliev's entire work, it is terrifying World War, where women fight on equal terms with men. They do not support the soldiers from behind, do not treat or feed them, but hold a gun in their hands and go on the attack. Each of the women has her own family, her own dreams and goals for life, but for many of them, the future will end on the battlefield. As the main character says, the worst thing in war is not that men die, but that women die, and then the whole country dies.

3) Feat of a layman

None of these women who went on the warpath took regular year-long courses. They have not served long in the army and do not know how to wield weapons thoroughly. They are all non-professional fighters, but ordinary soviet women who could become wives and mothers, but despite this they became real fighters. It doesn't even matter how incompetent they are, they fight on par and make a huge contribution to the stories.

4) Courage and honor

Despite the fact that every woman brought a huge treasure to victory during the war, there are those who stood out the most. For example, you can remember the heroine from the book, under the name Zhenya Komelkova, who, having forgotten about her future, dreams and goals, the value of her life, saved her comrades by luring the fascists to join her. It would seem that not every man would dare to do such an act, but this young girl, despite everything, took a risk and was able to help her colleagues. Even after the woman was seriously injured, she did not regret this act and only wanted victory for her homeland.

5) Respect for the Motherland

One of the Voskov heroes, after all the hostilities, blamed and insulted himself for a very long time for not being able to protect and save the weaker sex, who gave their lives on the battlefield. The man was afraid that because of the death of the soldiers, their fathers, husbands, and most importantly, children would rebel and begin blaming Voski for not being able to protect their women. The soldier did not believe that some White Sea Canal was worth so many departed souls. But at one point, one of the women, Rita, said that the man should stop self-flagellation, humiliation and constantly repent of this, since war is not a place for sadness and regret. All these women did not fight for ordinary roads or empty buildings, they fought for their homeland and for the freedom of an entire nation. This is exactly how the author conveys the courage of people and their love for their homeland.
