Introductory speech by the teacher about the goals and objectives of the lesson.

Good afternoon, dear guys and guests. Today, in a literature lesson, together with the heroes of Gauff's fairy tale "Dwarf Nose", we will plunge into the magical world of a fairy tale kingdom; Let's try to understand the meaning of this work and answer for ourselves the eternal question of existence: what is evil and good in our life and literary fairy tales.

And the tale of the great German writer began like this:

“Gentlemen! I think those who believe that the days of fairies and wizards are long gone, and that there is no truth in the stories told at the bazaar are wrong.”

2. Conversation on an episode from V. Gauf’s fairy tale “Dwarf Nose”

Why does the witch at the market turn specifically to Hannah, Jacob's mother, and not to other traders? (She may have heard about her as the best tradeswoman who has high-quality and varied goods, she is jealous that Hannah has a handsome, lively assistant or just wants to test the boy.)

How Jacob reacts to the old woman’s grumbling, evaluate his behavior. (We see the hero in different life situations: positive and negative.)

Do you think that if Jacob had restrained himself and not been rude to the Herbalist, would she have kept him in her service? (How many readers, so many opinions: perhaps I would have left it with She probably wouldn’t have left herself, since she needs good helpers, because he didn’t do anything bad to her.)

How many years was Jacob in the service and what did he learn there?

How did Jacob manage to escape from captivity?

What did Jacob learn about himself by looking in the mirror and listening to passersby?

What did the author want to say by showing the rudeness and intolerance of parents when meeting their son? Maybe this piece of text is superfluous? (Fate sends him another test, which comes from close people, and one must come out of it with honor and dignity; evil is everywhere, that’s why this story happened to Jacob.)

..." In that city, as indeed everywhere else, there lived few compassionate people who could sympathize with an unfortunate person."

Why doesn’t Jacob respond with anger to the barber’s rudeness and malice? (It's better to manifest patience, do not respond to evil with evil.)

Who does the boy blame for his ugliness? (He scolded himself for criticizing his appearance witch and therefore got what he deserved.)

What trials did fate have in store for him when the dwarf was in the duke's service?

How did you meet the goose? Why was it on the market?

How did the Dwarf manage to become Jacob again and who helps him with this?

How does the fairy tale end?

6. Analytical work with philosophical concepts.

Let's turn to the topic of our lesson and reflect on the concepts of good and evil.

You and I have been traveling through the fairy tale for some time, watching vivid episodes, playing out the most interesting things, and repeating important fragments, and now it’s time to think about the “lessons” that this meeting gave us.

The problem of choosing between good and evil is as old as the world. Without understanding the essence of good and evil, it is impossible to understand life. Guys, divide the notebook into two halves and write down the words or phrases that you associate with the concepts of evil and good.

Good - this is my mother’s song, to which I can easily fall asleep at night; grandma's pies; Saturday evening; A in mathematics; little brother's smile...

Evil - this is when parents argue after a parent-teacher meeting; It's raining outside; trip to the country; school duty...

So, as we see, each person has his own concept of good and evil. Let's turn to S.I.'s dictionary. Ozhegov, who will give us the exact definition of these words.

Good- the word is ambiguous - it means everything positive, good, useful.

Evil- something bad, harmful, the opposite of good.

As you can see, the meanings of these words are somewhat vague, vague... One of the characters in the film said: “What is good for a Russian is death for a German.” I suggest contacting specific facts and jointly decide for themselves what is evil and good.

Evil (minus)

Good (plus)

1. Service with a witch

minus: lived without parents for 7 years in exile.

plus: I learned to polish floors, bake sunny bread, and cook wonderfully.

2. Turning into a dwarf

minus: suffered from ridicule and insults from others; lost the attractive appearance that his mother boasted to the traders.

plus: saved my soul, saved the goose, became more tolerant.

3. Dealing with angry parents

minus: received a strong blow from those closest and dearest to him, who did not recognize him as their own son.

plus: understood and realized the reason for his transformation, but was not offended by his parents, but became wiser and more tolerant.

4. Service with the Duke

minus: fears for your life.

plus: getting to know the goose, testing your cooking skills.

5. Getting rid of witchcraft

minus and plus: acquaintance and farewell to the fairy-tale world.

plus: became a sweet and attractive young man, received “life lessons” and remembered them, began to appreciate life as such, learned to be grateful for the many trials that fate presented.

6. Conclusion

To prove your point, select vivid quotes from the text.

“Yes, dear mother, you could not recognize your son - he was not like that. When you showed off to people!

“His eyes became small, like a pig’s, his nose became monstrously elongated and hung over his mouth and chin, his neck was not visible.”

“Although the evil old woman ruined his appearance, she could not change his soul... He was not saddened by the lost beauty.”

“He remembered how he served as a squirrel for seven years for a witch, what she turned him into because he blamed her».

- What conclusion can be drawn from all that has been said? How did Jacob cope with the trials that befell him? ON THE. Zabolotsky, in his poem “The Ugly Girl,” reflecting on the beauty of the soul, external and internal beauty, wrote:

And if this is so, then what is beauty?
And why do people deify her?
She is a vessel in which there is emptiness,
Or a fire flickering in a vessel?

(From the test sent by fate, our hero returned as an intelligent, tolerant, persistent and noble young man; there is no fear of losing external beauty, the main thing is to remain Human.)

7. Checking homework. "Jacob's Message to the Evil Herbalist."

Let's imagine that we, in the form of Jacob, can communicate with the Herbalist and convey to her our messages, in which we will tell everything that we think about her and about ourselves... If we could do this, then perhaps the events described in this fairy tale , and it didn't happen.

“Hello, dear grandmother!” Jacob writes to you. “I understand everything that happened to me, and why you turned me into a dwarf. Before, I didn’t think about the fact that all sorts of ugly and sick people live next to me. They spoiled their disgusting appearance, my world, in which they have no place. I wanted to at least shout at them or cover my eyes with my hands, but now I understand that someone is to blame for the fact that they are like this... And we pass by, no. we want to see and hear them. We are so comfortable and calm. Forgive me, if you can..." (Seryozha K.)

“How scary it is to be alone in this world, I so want to shout loudly: “People, come to your senses! Don’t let evil exist and increase. Don’t respond to evil with evil, and then the sun will shine in the sky and soul!”(Arsenia F.)

“If I could relive that piece of life again, I would probably want to fix everything and become sweet and obedient again. But I wouldn’t have learned and understood a lot, continuing to trade. I wouldn’t have met you, the first teacher, on my way, If I believed in a fairy tale, I wouldn’t become like I am now... Let everything be as it is! I’m interested in all sorts of adventures!” (Lana S.)

8. Let’s turn again to the epigraphs, read them...

Which proverbs that reflect the theme of the lesson would you choose and why? What “life lessons” have you learned for yourself?

Whose soul is in sin is responsible.

There would be no happiness, but misfortune would help.

Nobody likes a narcissist.

Without tasting the bitter, you won’t know the sweet.

Every evening is followed by morning.

Don't quarrel with anyone, so you will be good to everyone.

A person's tongue can bring him glory and shame.

Living to live is not a field to cross.

One beaten one is worth two unbeaten ones.

Learning to read and write will come in handy in the future.

(The author of this tale teaches us patience and worldly wisdom, which comes only to those who can understand and realize their mistakes and mistakes, learn not to respond to evil with evil and feel the pain and suffering of strangers and loved ones.)

9. Compose your own “syncwine” on the topic of the lesson.

(The poem consists of five lines, each line has certain rules: it is necessary to observe the required number of words when using a certain part of speech. They say that, loosely translated from French, this word means “five inspirations.” This work requires a synthesis of information and material in brief expressions and allows you to reflect on any occasion.)

Witch
Decrepit, stingy
Knows, remembers, threatens.
The little one who cooks porridge will serve forever
This is melancholy.

10. Summing up. Grading.

11. Homework. Write a response letter from the Herbalist to Jacob.

BIBLIOGRAPHERS

Wilhelm Hauff was born on November 29, 1802 in Stuttgart, in the family of August Frederick Hauff, who served as a secretary in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and Wilhelmina Elsasser Hauff. Of four children, he was the second oldest.
In 1809, when Wilhelm was seven years old, his father died suddenly, and his mother, taking the children, moved to the university city of Tübingen. There, in the house of his maternal grandfather, Gauff spent his youth. The very first education that the boy received was reading books from his grandfather’s huge library. In 1818 he was sent to study at a monastery school, and in 1820 he entered the University of Tübingen. Four years later he graduated from the university with a doctorate in philosophy and theology.
After graduating from university, Gauff got a job as a tutor in the family of Defense Minister General Baron Ernst Jugen von Hoegel and became a mentor to his children. Together with this family, he traveled to France and became acquainted with the northern and central parts of Germany with great interest. During his short life, he visited Paris, Brussels, Antwerp, visited Kassil, the homeland of the Brothers Grimm, Bremen, a topographically accurate description of which we find in one of his last short stories “Phantasmagoria in the Bremen Wine Cellar”, visited Berlin, Leipzig, Dresden.

Gauff's literary heritage consists of three almanacs of fairy tales, one of which was published by his wife after his death, several novels and poems. These works forever inscribed the name of Wilhelm Hauff in the history of world literature. His mystical, sometimes scary, sometimes sad tales are imbued with the spirit of the East, but at the same time, devoid of the usual oriental tinsel. He is one of those few authors who knew how to turn ordinary legends about ghosts and poor people punishing evil rich people into magical, bright, memorable masterpieces that are still interesting to read to this day, both for children and adults.

The floor is given to the group Khuzhozhnikov

For example, not all parents consider the works of Korney Chukovsky to be necessary classics, and most of them do not consider his works talented. But I want to hold Chukovsky’s fairy tales, illustrated by Vladimir Suteev, in my hands and read them to children.

Witch
Decrepit, stingy
Knows, remembers, threatens.
The little one who cooks porridge will serve forever
This is melancholy.

Group "Thinkers"

Analytical work with philosophical concepts.

Let's turn to the topic of our lesson and reflect on the concepts of good and evil.

You and I have been traveling through the fairy tale for some time, watching vivid episodes, playing out the most interesting things, and repeating important fragments, and now it’s time to think about the “lessons” that this meeting gave us.

The problem of choosing between good and evil is as old as the world. Without understanding the essence of good and evil, it is impossible to understand life. Guys, divide your notebook into two halves and write down the words or phrases that you associate with the concepts of evil and good.

Good- this is my mother’s song, to which I can easily fall asleep at night; grandma's pies; Saturday evening; A in mathematics; little brother's smile...

Evil- this is when parents argue after a parent-teacher meeting; It's raining outside; trip to the country; school duty...

So, as we see, each person has his own concept of good and evil. Let's turn to the dictionary, which will give us the exact definition of these words.

Good- the word is ambiguous - it means everything positive, good, useful.

Evil- something bad, harmful, the opposite of good.

As you can see, the meanings of these words are somewhat vague, vague... One of the characters in the film said: “What is good for a Russian is death for a German.” I suggest turning to specific facts and jointly deciding for yourself what is evil and good.

Evil (minus)

Good (plus)

1. Service with a witch

minus: lived without parents for 7 years in exile.

plus: I learned how to polish floors, bake sunbread, and cook wonderfully.

2. Turning into a dwarf

minus: suffered from ridicule and insults from others; He lost the attractive appearance that his mother boasted to the traders.

plus: saved my soul, saved the goose, became more tolerant.

3. Dealing with angry parents

minus: he received a strong blow from the people closest and dearest to him, who did not recognize him as their own son.

plus: I understood and realized the reason for my transformation, but I was not offended by my parents, I became wiser and more tolerant.

4. Service with the Duke

minus: fear for your life.

plus: getting to know the goose, testing your cooking skills.

5. Getting rid of witchcraft

minus and plus: acquaintance and farewell to the fairy-tale world.

plus: he became a sweet and attractive young man, received “life lessons” and remembered them, began to appreciate life as such, learned to be grateful for the many trials that fate presented.

6. Conclusion

To prove your point, select vivid quotes from the text.

“Yes, dear mother, you could not recognize your son - he was not like that. When you bragged about him to people!

“His eyes became small, like a pig’s, his nose became monstrously elongated and hung over his mouth and chin, his neck was not visible.”

“Although the evil old woman ruined his appearance, she could not change his soul... He was not saddened by the lost beauty.”

“He remembered how he served as a squirrel for seven years for a sorceress, into whom she turned him because he blamed her.”

What conclusion can be drawn from all that has been said? How did Jacob cope with the trials that befell him? in his poem “The Ugly Girl,” reflecting on the beauty of the soul, external and internal beauty, he wrote:

And if this is so, then what is beauty?
And why do people deify her?
She is a vessel in which there is emptiness,
Or a fire flickering in a vessel?

(From the test sent by fate, our hero returned as an intelligent, tolerant, persistent and noble young man; there is no fear of losing external beauty, the main thing is to remain Human.)

Long ago, in one City in Germany, a shoemaker, Friedrich, lived with his wife Hannah, who sold vegetables. The two of them had a handsome, slender son, Jacob, who was loved by his parents, neighbors and customers. One day an old, wrinkled, poorly dressed old woman approached them. She began to rummage through the vegetables with her hand, stirring and making a mess, but her mother could not say anything.

The old woman began to grumble that all of Hannah’s vegetables were bad, then Jacob could not stand it and said that their vegetables were the best, and the old woman herself had a long nose, a thin neck, and crooked hands. The old woman got angry and grumbled that Jacob himself would soon have the same ones. She bought heads of cabbage and told him to help bring them to her. The boy had to obey. They walked for an hour, and when they finally arrived, Jacob saw that the outside of the old shack was covered with marble and beautifully furnished. The old woman suggested that he rest, saying that it was hard to carry human heads, and she actually pulled a human head out of the basket. Jacob was scared. She offered him a bowl of soup, after eating which Jacob fell soundly asleep.

He dreamed that he served an old woman for 7 years, and when he woke up, he ran home, but neither his father nor his mother recognized him and kicked him out. It turned out that he had turned into an ugly dwarf with a big nose. In despair, Jacob left. He decided to go to the Duke to become a cook. Over the years of serving the old woman, he learned to cook a variety of dishes. He got a job as a cook, worked for two years and became a respected man in the Duke's castle.

One day he bought geese at the market, and one goose asked not to kill her. The surprised dwarf spared her and left her to live in his room. She said that she was actually bewitched, and her name was Mimi. He also told her his story.

When his friend the prince came to the duke, the dwarf was tasked with preparing the king's pie, but he did not know how. Then the goose told him how to do it. But because no special herbs were added to the pie, it did not turn out so tasty. Angry, the Duke threatened to execute the dwarf if he did not prepare the pie properly. Together with the goose, he went into the garden to look for this grass, and when he found it, smelled it, he became his former self again. He took the money and the goose and went to the wizard, Mimi's father. He cast a spell on his daughter, and gave Jacob a lot of money and gifts. Jacob returned home to his parents, they recognized him and were glad to see their son return.

Of course, the first thing that catches your eye upon a quick acquaintance with the biography of this German writer is its brevity. Wilhelm Hauff lived a full 24 years, although his life was quite happy, without excessive love pains and participation in duels. The storyteller was born in 1802. The boy's first life test was the death of his father, who was imprisoned on an unjust charge of preparing a rebellion. It is believed that this biographical touch will subsequently be reflected in the fairy tale “Little Muk”. After the incident, Wilhelm Hauff moved to his grandfather's house. There the boy received his first education - in an old library among dozens of shelves.

The future storyteller studied at the Faculty of Theology and Philosophy. Naturally, the young man did not aspire to become a pastor. He was not particularly humble, but was always a bully and a rebel at heart. He even organized an order of “torchbearers,” wore somewhat extravagant red trousers, and even did not fail to repaint the legs of St. George (that is, his statue). The reason why Wilhelm Hauff chose this particular direction of study was as old as light - poverty. A full education in the family of the future writer could only be afforded to one child. It turned out to be not Wilhelm, but his older brother. And only studying at the theological faculty in those days implied a scholarship.

After leaving his alma mater, the young man became a tutor in one of the houses. Wilhelm Hauff managed to visit Paris, Brussels, Bremen - these and other trips were made. The fairy tales that he composed especially for the children of Baroness von Högel made the writer believe in himself and release the Almanac... in 1826. However, his debut in the art of words was not a collection of fairy tales. Before this, the novel “The Man from the Moon” was published, and this attempt at writing, admittedly, caused a small scandal. The fact is that Wilhelm Hauff published his book under the name of a popular fiction writer of those times, whose prose served as an example of tasteless literature. However, it was popular, which means that when readers saw a familiar name on the cover, they bought “The Man in the Moon” without hesitation. And what was the indignation of the public when they discovered not familiar reading, but an ironic parody of it! Gauff was exposed and ordered to pay a fine. So what, but he became a real celebrity! After the publication of two “Almanacs...” (the third was published after the writer’s death), Wilhelm Hauff continues to work. He creates poems, short stories, becomes the editor of the Morning Leaf and... marries the cousin whom he has loved for a long time.

In one nameless city in Germany there lived a shoemaker. His wife Hanna and son Jacob successfully sold vegetables at the market. When an ugly old woman approached their stall one day, Jacob became angry at her pickiness and criticized the woman. To this the old woman promised that he would become the same. The fact is that she turned out to be a witch, and her name was Grassy (German). Kräuterweiss- knowledgeable about herbs).

When Jacob helped her carry her shopping, in her house, where anthropomorphic guinea pigs and squirrels were serving, Grass fed him delicious soup. He fell asleep and had a dream about how he served the old woman in the guise of a squirrel for seven years and even became an excellent cook. When the boy woke up and returned to the market, it turned out that seven years had indeed passed, and he had turned into an ugly dwarf. His parents did not recognize him and did not believe him. Then Jacob got a job with the Duke of Gourmets as a junior chef (as a test, he prepared Danish soup with red Hamburg meatballs). The Duke ate his cooking and praised him.

One day, the dwarf Nose, as he is now called, among other things, bought Mimi the goose at the market (who ended up being an enchanted girl). She helped him bake Suzerain pate for the duke and his guest, the prince, and also find a very necessary seasoning for the pate - the herb Vkusnochikha (German. Niesmitlust- sneeze with pleasure), in which Jacob recognized a component of that same soup. In his room, he sniffed the grass and returned to his previous state.

First, she and the goose went to Mimi’s father, the wizard Wetterbock, who thanked Jacob. The latter returned to his parents with a decent amount of money.
