Description
The stories of Dmitry Narkisovich Mamin-Sibiryak “Adopter”, “Breadwinner”, “Postoiko”, “Skewer” and “Emelya the Hunter” are soulful works in which the author was not only a talented writer, but also a keen expert on child psychology and the lives of different layers of the population.
Listening to an audiobook is simple and easy. A child will easily understand all the experiences of the main characters, relying even on his own little life experience. An adult will discover a world of simple joy and quiet sadness, humanity and hopelessness.
Mamin-Sibiryak made little Proshka the hero of the story “Spit”. Twelve years of his life are not rich in joyful memories. He spends almost all his time in a stuffy, cramped workshop next to the large wheel of a cutting machine. The owner of the workshop is cunning and greedy. The workers in his workshop eat poorly, are paid little, and work a lot. In such conditions, the child withers and fades away. One day a rich lady and her son visited the workshop. She felt sympathy and compassion for little Proshka and invited him to her house. The lady seems to show sincere participation in his fate: she teaches the boy to read, feeds him, and dresses him in warm clothes. Although her actions have their own benefits. The lady dreams that a clear example of Proshka’s little skewer will help her son Volodya get rid of attacks of lordly laziness. This is not hidden from the astute poor boy. He is very struck by the contrast between the lives of ordinary workers and rich people. Soon Proshka fell ill. And even in his dying sufferings, he flatly refuses to move into the warm house of his lady and dies in his native workshop.
Dmitry Narkisovich's stories, despite the fact that they were written about children and animals, are devoid of sweetness and touching. By depicting the death of little Proshka, the author wanted to show the real life of the working class, contrast two worlds and awaken the consciousness of thinking people of that time. The same task was set when writing the story “The Breadwinner”. After the death of his father, the little day laborer Proshka must earn a living for himself and for his family. His sister Fedora, who “buried” her girlish beauty and happiness at the factory, did not have a better fate. Proshka split huge blocks of ore with a hammer every day. He did this both in the summer heat and in the winter cold. His ultimate dream was to get to work in a workshop where it was always warm and light. And the whole job is to look after the car. Fedora, despite the fact that she scolded her brother, loved him more than anyone. In addition, he was her hope, because it was Proshka who was supposed to become the breadwinner of the family - to go to the factory as a foreman. The older sister negotiated a place in the workshop for her brother. But the boy, essentially still a child, could not cope with his eternal desire to sleep. Proshka fell asleep in the most unexpected places, and one day he was scalded by steam. And so the little hope of a small family perished. So life ended before it even began.
Dmitry Narkisovich was able to show the life of a poor, unprotected creature in the city not only through depicting the fate of a child, but also an animal. The story “Postoiko” reveals to him the inner world of the yard dog Postoiko. He was taken from the village as a puppy because the master's son liked the small dog. But in the city the boy forgot about his pet and Postoiko lived only thanks to the fact that the cook fed him scraps from the master's table. In the big city, the dog was left to his own devices. He fought with the neighbor's pointer, did not like the general's lapdogs, and teased the janitors. One day, Postoiko and his eternal enemy, the pointer, fell into the hands of murderers and were taken to a kennel. Here the dogs lived out their last three days and, if their owner did not buy them, they were sent to the gallows. Postojko went through a lot during these three days. I saw the despair of purebred and homeless dogs, saw how life faded away in their eyes, when the heart was still beating, how hopelessness overtook everyone, regardless of breed and origin. And Postoiko himself had already said goodbye to life, but a kind cook found him and ransomed him.
The tragic fate of the little boy is also described in the story “Emelya the Hunter.” Little Grishutka was left an orphan. His father died, and his mother was killed by wolves when she hid her young son with her body. Now Grishutka lives with Emelya the hunter. The old grandfather knew the picturesque forests around the village for a hundred miles. When the boy fell ill, he asked his grandfather to catch a little deer and Emelya went into the forest. He tracked the deer for several days and finally got on the trail. The brave mother deer led the hunter for a long time in order to divert attention from her cub. And when Emelya found the yellow calf, he could not kill it, remembering Grishutka and his mother. When Emelya returned home, he told his grandson about the deer. They laughed for a long time and rejoiced at the salvation of the fawn.
The story “Foster” is a beautiful, kind and pure story about the attachment of an animal to a person. But despite all the warm feelings, gratitude and care of a person, freedom remains in first place for the animal. Old man Taras found, sheltered and left the swan. Very quickly the bird became part of a small family, which consisted of an old hunter and his dog. But when a flock of swans appeared on the lake, the little bird left its now-home home and went with the flock. Taras worried for a long time that the inexperienced swan would not survive the flight, but he could not do anything.
The stories of Dmitry Narkisovich Mamin-Sibiryak were voiced by Valery Karnaukh. The announcer did a great job with the sincere, kind, simple and pure stories. It will be a pleasure to listen to the stories more than once, both for adults and children.
Listen to the tales of Mamin-Sibiryak for children of primary and school age. Born on October 25 (November 6), 1852 at the Visimo-Shaitansky plant in the family of the factory priest Narkis Matveevich Mamin (1827-1878). Younger brother - V.N. Mamin, deputy of the Second State Duma. He received a home education, then studied at the Visim school for children of workers, later at the Yekaterinburg Theological School (1866-1868) and at the Perm Theological Seminary (until 1872, he did not complete the full course). In 1872 he entered the St. Petersburg Medical-Surgical Academy in the veterinary department. Since 1874, to earn money, he wrote reports on meetings of scientific societies for newspapers. In 1876, without graduating from the academy, he transferred to the Faculty of Law of St. Petersburg University. After studying for a year, he was forced to leave the university due to financial difficulties and a sharp deterioration in health (pleurisy began).
He entered the literature with a series of travel essays “From the Urals to Moscow” (1881-1882), published in the Moscow newspaper “Russian Vedomosti”. Then his essays “In the Stones” and short stories (“At the Border of Asia”, “In Thin Souls” and others) were published in the magazine “Delo”. Many were signed under the pseudonym “D. Siberian".
The writer’s first major work was the novel “Privalov’s Millions” (1883), which was published for a year in the magazine “Delo” and was a great success. In 1884, the novel “Mountain Nest” appeared in the magazine “Otechestvennye zapiski,” which established Mamin-Sibiryak’s reputation as an outstanding realist writer.
Long trips to the capital (1881-1882, 1885-1886) strengthened Mamin-Sibiryak’s literary connections. He met V. G. Korolenko, N. N. Zlatovratsky, V. A. Goltsev and other writers. During these years, he wrote and published many short stories and essays.
The writer's last major works were the novels “Characters from the Life of Pepko” (1894), “Shooting Stars” (1899) and the story “Mumma” (1907).
In his novels and stories, the writer depicted the life of the Urals and Siberia in the post-reform years, the capitalization of Russia and the associated breakdown of social consciousness, legal norms and morality.
