I. Preliminary work on the topic of the lesson.

Teacher: Our journey through the country of Literature continues... Works of great Russians and foreign writers have already been read by us this school year. These are not just works, this is the beginning of a great acquaintance with the treasures of Russian and world art. Our lessons are based on the program of A.G. Kutuzov. We learn not only to read works, but also to think, think, and express our point of view.

Today is another meeting with the great... This Jack London's story "The Tale of Kish".

Jack London- one of the most popular in our country American writers. His biography, his personality as an active, strong-willed man, somewhat reminiscent of his Jack London heroes, aroused no less interest than his work, which was strongly influenced by autobiographical beginning.

So who is Jack London?

Student: Jack London, illegitimate son astrologer William Cheney and spiritualist Flora Wellman, never met his father and bore the surname of his stepfather - John London, a farmer. John London's business was going with varying degrees of success, so his stepson, barely graduating from primary school, got a job in a canning factory with a ten-hour working day. It was a living hell, and at the age of fifteen Jack left the factory to join the oyster pirates of San Francisco Bay. Then he alternated free life with forced labor and attempts to complete his education. Ocean voyage on the schooner Sophie Sutherland, Auckland jute mill, vagrancy, prison, a year and a half in high school, a semester at the University of California, odd jobs; at the height of the “gold rush” - wintering in the Klondike.

From there, Jack returned without an ounce of gold and determined to make a living by writing. He was clearly aware that he had plenty of talent, impressions and diligence. He made it a rule to produce a thousand words a day. The magazines couldn't resist. Twenty-four-year-old Jack London entered the twentieth century as a professional writer. And he quickly became a famous and highly paid writer. However, he did not rest on this. In 1902, specifically to write the book "People of the Abyss", Jack London, a member of the American Socialist Party, spent three months in the London slums, posing as a sailor written off ashore. At the beginning of 1904, he went as a correspondent to the Russian-Japanese War. In 1907, according to his own design, he built the yacht “Snark” and made a two-year voyage on it to the islands of Oceania. He did not allow himself any concessions in his work: a thousand words a day - “The Call of the Wild”, “The Sea Wolf”, “Martin Eden”... Crazy money and crazy spending. It cannot be said that he was lucky. The barely built "Wolf House", conceived as a "family castle" for future generations of London, burned down. The long-awaited heir never appeared. Creative imagination has dried up.

Yes, guys, Jack London was a special person, even in appearance. This is how the writer I. Stone describes him: “Jack was naturally kind, recklessly generous - truly a friend of friends, the king of nice little ones... What an excellent example of the human race he was! He had a pure, full of joy, a gentle, kind heart... He looked older than his years, his body was flexible and strong, his neck was open at the collar, a mop of tangled hair - it fell on his forehead, and he, busy in an animated conversation, impatiently threw it back. Not a room dweller, but a man of free spaces - in a word, a real person, a man. He was obsessed with a thirst for truth" (Address to the portrait of the writer)

He lived his life as a fighter, “a sailor in the saddle,” as he once put it, and became a great writer, although life from childhood heaped one obstacle after another on him. He passed away at the age of forty. Fifty books - the result of it literary activity. One of these books includes the story "The Tale of Kish". You read this work at home.

II. Text analysis work.

Did you like the story? Why? (Yes, he talks about a brave boy, about how the hero, at the age of 13, was not afraid of the tribal leader and entered into a confrontation with him; this is a story about a courageous boy).

Name the heroes of the story.

Introduction

I just started doing scientific research and this is my first job. But I can say with full responsibility that doing literary research is very useful for several reasons:

You expand your horizons and gain new knowledge.
Perhaps we (young scientists) will be able to find something new that researchers have not noticed before. After all, we look at works from a completely new angle.
We (young scientists) will be able to reveal the images of the heroes of the works we have studied, which will help our classmates save time and broaden their horizons just as much as ours.

My choice fell on Jack London’s work “The Tale of Kish”, not only because it is interesting to read. The image of the main character seemed quite complex to me and relevant for our time.Most guys really want to grow up, they try to seem like adults. Girls start putting on makeup early, and boys show their masculinity in conversations by using obscene language. In my opinion, revealing the image of the main character will help many young children understand what it means to be adults at such an early age.

The degree of knowledge of the problem.

I could only find various lesson notes for teaching “The Tale of Kish”: either one lesson or a series of literature lessons with foreign authors. This allows us to say that little attention has been paid to this work, and therefore the topic of my research has been little studied. It follows from this that it is relevant.

The purpose of my work: Reveal the image of the main character and at the same time show how, at a very young age, you can not just seem like an adult, but act like an adult.

Thus, the tasks my research became:

Identify the main stages of the main character’s growing up.
Study his life position.
Reply to main question: Does Kishi seem like an adult or is he a precocious toddler?

Object of study:Main character(Kishi).

Subject of research:"The Tale of Kish" by Jack London.

Methodological basis of the study. During the study, the comparative literary method, the biographical method, as well as the principle of selectivity and the principle of integrity were used.

Main part

2.1 Interesting facts from the biography of Jack London

In my opinion, Jack London is not only a great author, but also very interesting. One of the lakes was named in his honor Far East. There are two versions of the name of this lake.

One version says that old-timers living near this lake claim that during the discovery of the lake, Jack London’s book “Martin Eden” was found on the shore.

However, there is another version of the origin of this name near the lake. There is a version that many geologists were very fond of London’s works. There are beliefs that as many as two leaders of various expeditions wanted to name some of the geographical objects in honor of this author. And in 1932, geologist P.I. Skornyakov, fulfilled his dream and named one of the lakes in the northeast in his honor, giving it the name Jack London.

As Irina Evgenievna Lunina notes in her dissertation, “ Art world Jack London,” “according to a 1952 UNESCO study, J. London was recognized as the most popular writer in Europe and Russia and the most “translated” writer.”

I think it's important to know that Jack London is not his real name. Present - John Griffith Cheney. Jack is short for John, as his closest people called him. His mother married John London, and at that time baby Cheney was almost a year old. After his mother's marriage, everyone began to call John Griffity Cheyne, like his stepfather, John London.

Little Jack London knew firsthand what it meant to behave like an adult. The boy worked no less than an adult man. He began his working life early, which was full of hardships. In elementary school, he sold morning and evening newspapers. After graduation primary school began to work at a canning factory as a simple worker, but the work turned out to be too hard for the boy, and he left. After that, he illegally caught oysters in San Francisco Bay. After which he was hired as a sailor on a schooner, where he visited the sea for the first time. The schooner that Jack hired on was a fishing boat, it went to the shores of Japan and the Bering Sea.

I believe that it was this varied and working life of Jack London that allowed him to write one of the most remarkable works, which I analyze in my work - “The Tale of Kish”.

But if Jack London had been an uneducated sailor, we would never have been able to read his works. That is why I think that in my work it is worth talking about the education of this writer.

He prepared himself and passed all the exams in order to enter the University of California. However, after the 3rd semester, due to lack of funds for studies, I was forced to leave. In the spring of 1897, he goes to the mines, at that time it was called the “gold rush”. He went to Alaska. He returned to San Francisco in 1898. London experienced all the “delights” of the northern winter. He was not showered with gold, but fate gave him huge amount meetings, I think it was there that he met our hero Kishi.

Thus, Jack London was a man who:

I believe that it was the events of his life that I have listed that allowed London to create the image of “Kisha”.

Terms: Image, main character, legend.

Having examined the term image in various explanatory dictionaries, I came to the conclusion that in the dictionaries edited by Efremova, Ozhegov, Shvedova and Ushakov, there are similarities and differences. General things can be considered: appearance, appearance, likeness. Different in these explanatory dictionaries - living, reflection, idea, feeling, image, generalization, reflection, type, character.

And in the philosophical encyclopedic dictionary, in my opinion, the most correct concept of image is given: “the result of the reflection of an object in the human mind.”

Thus, each definition complements and extends what is common in them. I derived my definition of the image in order to understand what I mean when talking about the image of Kisha.

An image is the result of a reflection in a person’s consciousness of an appearance, appearance, likeness, which is a living, generalized reflection of the ideas, feelings and character of someone.

Since I am considering not just the image in the work, but the image of the main character, it is necessary to consider the definition: the main character.

When I was looking for a definition of this term, I ran into a problem. I couldn't find this exact phrase. The wording of the term “hero” is very common, and also in literary dictionary you can find the term " literary hero»: « one of the main characters in a work of art (as opposed to a character)." In my opinion, this definition can be equated to the desired concept of “protagonist”. In explanatory dictionaries, in the definition of the word “hero” there is an indication of a literary hero. The common things in explanatory dictionaries edited by Ozhegov, Shvedova and Efremova are: main, active, exploits, person; and different: unusual, arouses interest, embodies the features of the era.

Thus, the terms literary hero and the main character of a work can be considered identical. To the term in the literary dictionary “literary hero”, for a complete understanding it is necessary to add what is common and different that is in explanatory dictionaries. We get the following definition:The main character is the main character of the work, which is unusual due to the fact that it embodies the features of the era, and therefore arouses interest.

The work in which I will consider the image of the main character is a legend, this is indicated in the very title of the work: “The Tale of Kisha.” It turns out that the author himself implies knowledge of this word from the very beginning. This says that we simply need to talk about the meaning of this word.

The meaning of this definition can only be found in a literary dictionary. So in the dictionary edited by Fritsche and Lunacharsky it is said that legend implies several types: historical, hagiographic, apocryphal, teachings and stories. Having read the work itself, we can say with certainty that it belongs to a story. A tale-story is “a broad genre of secular and spiritual stories, translated and original, which are similar to the modern literary story.”

From all of the above it follows that in the storythe image of the main character can be considered the result of reflection in the human mind of the appearance, appearance of the main character actor in the work.

2.3 Image of Kisha

The events described in the legend took place near the polar sea, where the main character lived. He lived in an igloo. An igloo is an Eskimo ice house that has a dome shape.

The main character is a boy, Kishi, who is 12 years old.

His voice is heard at the council, despite the fact that such little ones were forbidden to speak out. The first time his voice was heard was because,when they ate, the meat was tough and old and there were a lot of bones in it.Then Kish's voice rang out again, because he was proud of his father. The boy openly, without fear of anyone, declares that he will be able to go hunting and kill bears on his own.

"Justice" is key concept in the words of Kish. Kish wanted to achieve justice and equality, despite his age. He believed it was fair to help your tribe if you could do it, no matter how old you were. It is fair that every resident of the city gets a good piece of meat. But the men of the tribe considered it unfair if some little boy, who has not seen life.

I compiled a table of evidence that suggests the tribe’s hunters were right and arguments to the contrary, and this is what happened:

Thus, the reader must understand both the boy who speaks like a grown man and the men of the tribe.

Leaving the council, Kish felt angry, upset and frustrated. The author conveys his feelings with the words: “Kish’s eyes lit up, his blood began to boil and a hot blush rushed to his cheeks…. he gritted his teeth and walked.”

Kish still managed to defend his case, because he was able to prove that he could kill a bear himself without any help.

The successful hunt of the protagonist began to cause talk of witchcraft in the village. There is an explanation for this. The boy killed five bears, remained unscathed, and had no scratches on him. That's why the residents considered him a sorcerer.

Kish did not consider his successful and easy hunt a secret or mystery. He took whale oil and stuck it to the crumpled baleen, the ends of which were very sharp, and it turned out to be a lump of fat with whalebone inside. These lumps of fat brought great pain to the bear and could be easily dealt with. The men wanted to get the secret of his hunt on the sly, but they only had to ask. When Klosh-Kwan came to him and asked him to tell him how he hunts. The boy spoke about it without hesitation.

The only parent the main character had was his mother. She did not live richly, the city residents did not pay attention to her, she received bad meat, like many women from the tribe. Kisha's mother lived in a small igloo. But then, when Kish began to catch bears, Kish’s mother and himself were looked at differently.

Despite the fact that he was driven out of the council, he did not become embittered, he brought meat to the entire village, fed everyone, divided everything fairly, as he promised, did not forget about his family, about his home: “I want to build myself a new igloo,” Kish once said to Klosh-Kwan and the other hunters. “It must be a spacious igloo so that Aikiga and I can live comfortably in it.”

I believe that Kish can be called an honest, kind, proud and hardworking person.

The writer explains to us why Kish became the first person in the tribe, and then the leader: You need to think and work not only with your hands, but also with your head, you don’t need to rely on a miracle, his ingenuity helped him rise, not witchcraft.

Conclusion

Conducting my research to study the image of the main character of the work “The Tale of Kishi,” I became familiar with the terms: image, main character, legend, and I also derived the most complete definitions, covering all aspects of these definitions. I got acquainted with the work and studied literary terminology.

The goal of my work was to reveal the image of the hero in such a way as to show how a teenager should act if he wants adults to listen to him and consider him equal.

I believe that the goal has been achieved. The main characteristics of the main character are:

Words correspond to deeds.
Words are not thrown into the wind.
Goes to hard work, work that is not correlated with age.
Labor should be not only physical, but also mental.
"Fairness" is the key concept in the words.

The main stages of growing up are the following:

First: He boldly expresses his point of view at the council.

Second: He decides to go on a difficult task - hunting.

Third: He begins to benefit the tribe, bringing good catch from the hunt.

Fourth: The realization that he is entitled to appropriate housing according to his status. He cannot build it himself, since he is constantly busy hunting; his fellow tribesmen, who feed at his expense, must build it for him.

Fifth: He easily reveals the secret of his successful hunt, thereby helping other hunters bring more meat to the tribe.

Sixth: Becomes the first person of the tribe, and subsequently the leader.

So, to answer the question: Does Kishi seem like an adult or is he a precocious toddler? We can safely say that he is a grown-up kid. He had to grow up because his father died early, and his mother needed help, she needed to eat well. This is why Kishi goes through all the stages of growing up.

By conducting this research, I will be able to introduce a large number of students not only to the terms, but also to the image of the main character of “The Tale of Kishi.” I will be able to convey to them my message that the painted faces of girls and curses from the mouths of boys do not make them adults. I can confirm this with the example of a twelve-year-old boy named Kishi.

Electronic resource: Jack London “The Tale of Kishi”.
Purpose of the work consists of studying the content and originality of Jack London’s work, primarily in the aspect of his perception and artistic representation of the image of the main character.
The first chapter of the project talks about Jack London as the author of the book “The Tale of Kish”. Having studied biographical information about this author, the following factors were identified that influenced the content of the text under consideration:
1. I tested it on myself, in early childhood, the most varied and difficult work.
2. He was engaged in self-education, since he did not have enough money to get an education at the university.
3. I met a huge number of people, whose images, in my opinion, became the basis of many works.
4. Visited the Seas of Japan and the Baltic, as well as the north.
In the second paragraph of the project, the terms necessary for literary analysis of the image were considered, namely: main character, image, legend.
The third paragraph reveals the image of the main character in the work “The Tale of Kish”.
Kish can be called an honest, kind, proud and hardworking person. The writer explains to us why Kish became the first person in the tribe, and then the leader: You need to think and work not only with your hands, but also with your head, you don’t need to rely on a miracle, his ingenuity helped him rise.
Kish will grow good boy, since at such a young age he thinks not only about himself, but about the whole tribe.
The story of Kishi teaches us that we should not just say words, but do them. If you want to be more mature, then be ready to do adult things. Be prepared that they will not believe in you. And only through perseverance and hard work can you achieve respect among adults.
The new knowledge gained will allow me not only to reveal the image of the hero when discussing this work on extracurricular activities, but also to show the kids what it means to be an adult.

wandered, worked 14-18 hours. But his thirst for knowledge and love never faded away.

to books. Only hard work, constant work with books, persistent desire

achieve success and win a place under the “literary sun” led him to

well-deserved celebration. The writer's first fame came from stories about the North. They

takes us to Alaska and the Klondike River.

- In what part of the world does the story take place?(In the northern United States of America).

And yet, the Klondike opened its gold mine to him: for many years it became the source of story plots. The North gave the world a great writer.

He never forgot the majestic pictures of the harsh Arctic nature, the peculiar morals and customs of gold miners, their relationships with local Indian tribes.

The Klondike gave London the theme of the North, its poetry and truth.

Writer's real name John Griffith. Two passions possessed him throughout his life - the love of books and the love of adventure. It was the thirst for travel and adventure that drove him to catch oysters in forbidden places, engage in fur fishing off the Bering coast, and become a witness and participant in the “gold rush” in the Klondike.

Years of wanderings and adventures did not pass without a trace: the legends of the north and amazing human destinies were embodied on the pages of his books.

At home you read The Tale of Kish. A tale, or tradition, legend is a genre of folklore that reports on the events of “bygone days”, preserved in the grateful memory of descendants.

What colors predominate in them? Why?

Pay attention to the contrast of the pictures. What do you think is the reason for this?

Why are people attracted to the North? Why did LD choose this place for his story? What interests him?

The laws of the North are harsh. It requires endurance, courage, perseverance, responsibility, and a sense of nobility. Every day tests a person for humanity.

“The North tested a person, and it became clear what you were worth, who you were: a scoundrel or a hero, a coward or a daredevil. The harsh north washed away the human race. The weak and timid, the dishonest and the greedy left, the strong and courageous settled here")

3. Which people did the writer choose as his heroes? (“Those who do not know have lived here for a long time. southern sun, warm winter, for whom the north is their homeland. And harsh nature feeds and clothes its sons. These are the indigenous people. They differ from the newcomers from the south in skin color, language, and customs.

6. What was Kish's father like? Why did people forget about their father’s feat?

The boy Kish was, according to the northern count, “13 suns.” The story says that the sun rises above the earth so that people can warm up and look each other in the face. How do you understand these words?

Despite the fact that “Kish was just a boy, and his mother was just a woman,” he spoke at the council of men without bending his back to anyone. Why did the hunters consider his words impudent? What did Kish demand? What did Kish see at the council when he looked these people in the face?

- How did Kish realize his intentions, what did he do?

Violation of custom: 13-year-old boys never went hunting

How did the tribesmen react to the disappearance of Kish? Were these people really that bad? How did they behave when the snowstorm arose and Kish did not return from the hunt?
- What was the outcome of the hero’s first hunt?

- Did the tribesmen believe this?

But luck did not leave the young hunter. This worried the tribesmen even more. How did the tribesmen decide to find out the secret of Kish’s “successful hunt”?

- Why do you think Kish was not afraid to tell his fellow tribesmen his secret?

- From a little boy, Kish became the leader of the tribe. He succeeded in this thanks to his character qualities. Which one?(Fearlessness, ingenuity, observation, willpower, sense of justice, responsibility to fellow tribesmen) The triumph of human will and responsibility.

The North forces you to fight for existence. And this requires not only strong biceps and a clear head, but an undulling sense of mercy and responsibility. It is this that lifts a person above the harsh nature and makes him feel like a part and master of it.

Yes, these are not the qualities of a little boy, a teenager, these are the qualities of a man who can come to the rescue at any moment. Probably, Kish, who lived only “13 suns,” saw himself this way.

The main character, a 13-year-old boy, is a role model for many; with his actions and actions, Kish deserves to be called an “adult.” What do you think it means to be an adult?

“The Tale of Kish” the main characters of Jack London’s story show an example of behavior in difficult life situations.

“The Tale of Misha” characteristic of Kish

Kish's character traits- courage, courage, ingenuity, ingenuity, self-esteem.

The main character, a 13-year-old boy named Kish, took responsibility for his life and the life of his mother. To survive, he had to become a man at the age of 13 and go hunting.

"Fairness" is a key concept in Kish's words. Kish wanted to achieve justice and equality, despite his age. He believed it was fair to help your tribe if you could do it, no matter how old you were. It is fair that every resident of the city gets a good piece of meat. But the men of the tribe considered it unfair if some little boy who had not seen life told them to

Kish still managed to defend his case, because he was able to prove that he could kill a bear himself without any help.

The protagonist's successful hunt began to spark rumors of witchcraft in the village. There is an explanation for this. The boy killed five bears, and there were no scratches on him. That's why the residents considered him a sorcerer.

Despite the fact that he was expelled from the council, he did not become embittered, he brought meat to the entire village, fed everyone, divided everything fairly, and did not forget about his family, about his home: “I want to build myself a new igloo,” Kish once said Klosh-Kvan and other hunters. “It must be a spacious needle so that Aikiga and I can live comfortably in it.”

Kish can be called an honest, kind, proud and hardworking person.
