Fable of Krylov "Chizh and the Dove". Is schoology out of order?

Each work of Krylov bears in itself a certain worldly wisdom and teaches "good and bright" or, at least, shows how one should not behave. Krylov's fable "Chizh and the dove" is not an exception, but what she discovers, we will analyze below.

Plot

Chizh fell into a trap, and, seeing this, the dove over him in every possible way becomes amused and says that he would never have fallen so stupidly into snares. And do you know what happened after a while? He did not notice the trap himself and found himself in a cage. Here is such a simple fable of Krylov "Chizh and pigeon".

Morality

A person should not gloat over grief or serious troubles of another. Perhaps, tomorrow the zuboskal can get into the same situation. Krylov's fable "Chizh and the dove" is not too complicated for analysis. With this, it seems, will cope and the schoolboy. Then a few more considerations, which were provoked by the work of Ivan Andreevich.

Compare yourself with others - in human nature. And no matter how many Eastern spiritual practices tell us that we must compete only with ourselves, people still stubbornly look toward their neighbor, colleague at work or just a passer-by. And if envious is ineradicable, then gloating can not be won either. So our pigeon (Krylov's fable "Chizh and the pigeon" tells about him) only saw the chizha in difficulty, and immediately began to try his situation on himself.

Can a person do better?

Answering this important question, we will take Michel Montaigne and Don Corleone as allies. The first one said: "Let's reason with reason". First we look at the person open-minded, and then turn to the authority of Don Vito Corleone.

Of course, we would like to believe in the best - this is also a part of human nature, but practice shows that a person has not changed much over the past two thousand years.

This is well said Bulgakovsky Woland, as well as not ceasing the popularity of the Greek tragedies. If a person had changed very cool, then Sophocles and Euripides would have been left out of the culture, but this did not happen.

We are also concerned about Shakespeare's tragedies and comedies, and there are enough treacheries, gloating and cunning, but they do not bother us. Each new generation comes to this source of not only inspiration, but also philosophical wisdom.

In other words, however that may be, man is still in his virtues and vices. The only thing that has changed is their image: art (and literature in particular) has become more sophisticated and detailed in this sense. "Chizh and the dove" is a fable of Krylov, executed in the old style: the characters are simple and understandable, and their purpose is clear as a day.

Now it's time to come for advice to Don Corleone. He told his children: "Never tell anyone other than family members what you think." From ourselves we add: if you are not lucky with relatives, then do not tell them your thoughts.

If you can not defeat the gloating in a person completely and irrevocably, and we came to the conclusion that this is impossible, then we should at least hide it from outsiders, and even more so from the victim of the vicissitudes of fate. Unfortunately, the dove from the work we are considering (in focus - "Chizh and pigeon", Krylov's fable) for this simply did not have the intelligence and wit.
