Features of creativity of V. V. Mayakovsky on the example of the poem "Good attitude to horses»
Vladimir Vladimirovich Mayakovsky has a special role in the literature of the 20th century. He embodied the proletarian movement, becoming disillusioned with it at the end of his life. Was that what had ruined him? But we will not write an alternative history, but rather consider the work of the poet.
Mayakovsky was one of the most prominent representatives of Russian futurism. Provocative poem quickly attracted the attention of the public. However, we can conclude that even in the most seemingly "strange" poem, there is a deep meaning hidden. An example of this is the poem "Good attitude to horses", in which the author created a whole picture of people's lives.
When the horse fell, everyone surrounded it, but no one wanted to help. People laughed and mocked the animal. The lyric hero came up and began to comfort the poor animal. He was the only one who did it, and the street became a blur, which means one continuous anger and greyness of people.
It is noteworthy that the horse calmed down and felt like a foal. That's what a good word means. When the lyric hero (however, in the case of Mayakovsky, we can also say the author) helped the horse, then it and the man himself felt relief. Still, good must overcome evil.
It is worth paying attention to the seemingly strange words "mushroom, Rob, coffin...". This is not just a transmission of hoofbeats. It turns out a terrible picture: the author speaks of a robbery and a coffin as payment for atrocities. Mayakovsky has many hidden meanings, although he always clearly conducts the main idea.
In "Good attitude to horses" shows a satire on society, and also draws a red line to the idea that everyone works, but they are not always appreciated.
