Is Stolz a new person?

While reading the novel “Oblomov” by I. A. Goncharov, a question arose before me: can Andrei Ivanovich Stolts, one of the heroes of the novel, be considered a “new” person?

I'll try to answer this question. The key to solving this problem, in my opinion, lies in Stolz’s childhood, because it was at this time that all his life principles are laid in a person, then parental advice, combined with personal experience, form a system according to which a person will live in the future.

Little Andryusha Stolz spent his childhood in the village of Verkhlevo, where his father, Ivan Bogdanovich, served as a manager. Andrey “was only half German, according to his father: his mother was Russian.” In Verkhlev he studied various sciences: with his father he studied geography, “sorted through the warehouses of Herder, Wieland and biblical verses”, learned to “sum up the accounts of the peasants”, traveled to factories, “public places”, fields, that is, he learned the practical side of life ; his mother raised him to be a highly spiritual person: she studied “sacred history” with him, “studied Krylov’s fables and read “Telemacus” by word of mouth,” told fairy tales and did everything to prevent Stolz from becoming the same German burgher as his father. Her efforts did not remain fruitless: “the proximity of Oblomovka: there is an eternal holiday”, “the gallery in the princely castle” and the stories of her mother “turned the narrow German track into such a wide road that neither my grandfather nor Ivan Bogdanovich himself had ever dreamed of.”

Stolz grew up to be an energetic, rational, practical person in the German style and a sincere and broad-minded person in the Russian style. His German half is revealed in his attitude to life, in the desire to subordinate everything to logic and calculation. Meeting with any life secret, he “stubbornly stopped at its threshold, not revealing either the faith of a child or the doubt of a fool, but waited for the appearance of the law, and with it the key to it.” Stolz controlled himself so well that he seemed to control his emotions as easily as he controlled the movements of his hands or the steps of his feet.

There was only one area of life that was little understood by him: love. But even to her, he often stumbles and thanks fate for his success in recognition“reddened lies” and “pale truth”, tried to apply his omnipresent German logic.

But perseverance, rationality and practicality are only the first half of Stolz’s soul, its German half. Another part of it distinguishes Stolz from the burghers, manufacturers, merchants and traders of Germany. It is with this part of his soul that Andrei Ivanovich distinguishes bad people from good ones; he can love Oblomov like a brother, despite their complete opposite. The Russian half of Stolz saw in Ilya Ilyich an “honest, faithful heart”, his “natural gold”, which he “carried unharmed through life”. Finally, it was with this part of his heart that Andrei Ivanovich fell in love only once, but with the most worthy of all worthy women: Olga Ilyinskaya, who always strived for the ideal and improved herself with every year of her life. For such a wife, Stolz had been preparing himself all his life, without realizing it, but trying “not to fly into the swamp as hard as he could, ruining his own and other people’s existence,” but saving himself for the future.

Many people did not like him for his stinginess with emotions, for his prudence, but most importantly, for the fact that he achieved a lot in life, because he not only got married successfully and was happy in his marriage, but also turned two hundred forty-five rubles with which he came to St. Petersburg, with “thirty thousand capital.”

Stolz set a worthy example to follow with his life, changed public opinion about whether it is possible to create huge capital out of nothing without ever changing your life principles. Andrei Ivanovich was a man of the future tense, and therefore I think that he can be considered a “new” man.

Humanity has always been divided into two halves: those who “go with the flow”, who meet the idea of the time about the norm of social life, and those who live according to special life rules, who set an example to follow. Such people are called “new”.

“In the Trenches of Stalingrad” is a book not only about military operations. It is primarily about people, about those who managed to survive and win. In war conditions, people's characters manifest themselves in different ways. At first glance, it seems that the writer does not evaluate what is happening, but the very intonation of Nekrasov’s text puts everything in its place. And the reader understands what kind of person is in front of him - an honest warrior or a selfish man, or, worst of all, a careerist commander walking over corpses. Close friend Nekrasova, AN. Rokhlin said that he “was a convinced, die-hard realist.” I think this came not only from the character of the writer

“The Cherry Orchard” is the last work of A.P. Chekhov, completing his creative biography, his ideological and artistic searches. The author indicated the main plot line of the play by the title of the work itself. The action of the comedy takes place on the estate of landowner Lyubov Andreevna Ranevskaya - on an estate with a cherry orchard surrounded by poplars. The nature of the estate is an excellent backdrop for the development of events that reveal human destinies. In my opinion, the play has a very important and attractive detail that awakens optimism and hope. This is extraordinary nature, its creative power, beauty, aspirations

Goncharov’s novel “Oblomov” is the second part of his famous trilogy, which opens with the novel “An Ordinary Story”. The novel “Oblomov” is named after the main character, Ilya Ilyich Oblomov, a landowner who lived in St. Petersburg in a calm and measured life. Ilya Ilyich is an original type: his daily routine is not filled with various business trips, he does not serve anywhere; you will not meet him at balls, dancing with pretty young ladies, or at social evenings, playing whist at the table. Moreover, Oblomov rarely goes outside just to take a walk - he sleeps until noon, then

Lermontov is a poet of youth; it is in his youth that people dream about him and revel in him. What attracts me most about him is his romance, rebellion, heroism, dreaminess, and belief in high ideals. Very often there are moments when you feel alone in this world, abandoned by everyone. And then it’s nice to re-read familiar poems: “Sail”, “Clouds”, “In the wild north a lonely pine tree stands.” What attracts people in Lermontov’s poetry is his sincerity and ardor. Lermontov began writing early, as a fourteen-year-old teenager. And very soon he freed himself from direct imitations of his elders, learned to embody his own spiritual

When we read about the fates of A. Akhmatova, B. Pasternak, A. Tvardovsky, we notice that all these people had an abyss in their lives: when persecution and repression began, they stopped publishing poetry. But these are very courageous and strong-willed people who were able to withstand all adversity. In my opinion, A. Akhmatova had the most tragic fate. Having lost her husband and only son, she does not lose faith in life. Despite the fact that they stopped publishing her in the twenties, her name became known throughout the country. Her poems are filled with love and sadness. A. Akhmatova writes a lot in her poems

We all know that in every era there are people who are significantly ahead of their time in development and way of thinking. Today I would like to speculate about whether Andrei Stolts was a new person in Goncharov’s novel “Oblomov”.
I would like to begin my story with Andrei’s life story: “Stolz is the same age as Oblomov, and he is already over thirty years old. He served, retired, went about his own business, and actually made a home and money. He is involved in some company that ships goods overseas.” From this passage it is clear that in life and in the nature of his occupation he does not stand out much from the “gray” mass of people. It can be compared with Ostrovsky’s merchants in “Dowry”.
“Stolz doesn’t lose his head over women.” Andrey always knows what he needs. “Even in the midst of enthusiasm, he felt the ground under his feet and had enough strength in himself so that in case of extremes he could rush and be free.” Some will say that he never truly loved, but it seems to me that Stolz simply believed: real love will never throw him into extremes, but will only help him in all his endeavors. He said that “the normal purpose of a person is to live four ages of a calm life, and that the even burning of a fire is better than stormy fires, no matter what poetry burns in them.” To be honest, I expected to hear these words more from Oblomov than from Stolz. It becomes clear that in Andrei’s opinion, an ordinary lazybones parasite is better than any brilliant poet. From these statements we see that Stolz is not an ordinary man in the street.
Each of us has our own friends, but not everyone can decide to take a step towards mini-feats, at least as Stolz did for Oblomov. He visits his friend several times and tries to improve his life: “You’ve been robbed all around! You really are dead, lost.” Even after these words, he did not leave him alone.
In the previous passage, I put forward a theory that Andrei never truly loved, women did not influence his life in any way, but suddenly: “Stolz comes to Olga and admits that he loves her. Olga is indecisive, at first she refuses Stolz, he is going to leave forever, she holds him back.” What is it? Goncharov's carelessness or his subtle move? It becomes clear that all human weaknesses are far from alien to Stolz.
Finally, I would like to summarize everything I said earlier. To the question: “Is Stolz a new person?” – there will never be a clear answer. To me, in turn, it seems that Andrei was not a “man from the future,” he was just one of the small guiding stars in the sky of that time, leading society to new heights of perfection.
