| description | In his story V. A. Zhukovsky reviews the power of faith that can
change people. A protagonist of the poetic story Bopp is the captain of the
ship, an evil and depraved person, an off ender and a blasphemer, hated by his
crew that are ready to kill him. The main character gets a possibility of
salvation through the gospel of repentance and a prayer. Inner transfi guration
occurred to the captain became possible due to his sophisticated internal
spiritual work, the power of aspiration to God, his self refl ection and total
devotion to God. This way is seen by the author as the only possible, but the
main thing here is the fact that it is possible. The culmination of the story is
the image of the crucified Christ that the captain sees. Since then the hero is
not afraid to die, because it becomes clear that he has been forgiven. In the
story, on the one hand, the death of a man is presented, but on the other hand
it is not death that becomes important, but a new mind that enables the hero
to fi nd peace. For Zhukovsky mortal (temporal) life is a time for preparation
for eternal life. The story gives hope to everyone and admits the possibility of
salvation. |
