But back to literature.
Books may not be as categorical, but they influence people no less than cinematography, creating
stereotypes and ideals that are deposited in the subconscious and can change the worldview of
individuals and even mentality of an entire nation. And this applies to any work, in whatever genre
and volume it was not presented by the author. That is why when
legit essay writing service, they try to touch on vital
topics. It is important to remember: for someone, our opuses may be a temptation, a role model,
perhaps even a script for their own life.
Ivan Andreevich Krylov has a fable "The
Composer and the Robber," in which the fable writer just and raises the problem of the impact of
writing on the reader. The plot of the fable is as follows: the writer and the robber die and go to
hell, and for their sins they are put into cauldrons, under which they make fire. Beneath the
robber, the fire burns brightly at once, for he has killed, robbed, and committed many other
atrocities. But beneath the writer, the flame at first barely smolders. But as time passes, the fire
under the robber's cauldron begins to die out, and under the writer it burns brighter and brighter.
When the writer begins to cry out for justice (he didn't kill or rob anyone), the following is
explained to him: the outlaw's work ended with his death, and what the writer left to the world
after him continues to be read by more and more people who learn from his works of debauchery,
meanness and other similar passions. The more time passes, the more people are seduced by the
writer's works. And the more punishment he deserves.
This parable is the best way to illustrate the results of writing. And we can
go on and on about the influence of fiction on life.
A friend of
mine, a veterinarian with a college degree, was convinced that horses should be kept in as cold a
stable as possible in winter, so that the temperature inside would be close to the temperature
outside. Why? Because Alexandre Dumas in his work "The Fencing
master"
wrote that in winter the Russians experienced a great difference of 40 degrees between the
temperature indoors and outdoors, which immediately made the mass of people fall ill with pneumonia
when they went from the warm, plus 25, place to the cold, minus 25, street.
Based on Dumas' logic, if people live in
Antarctica and it is minus eighty outside, then they need to make sure that the temperature indoors
does not rise above minus forty. Otherwise, there will be too much of a drop and you can't go
outside. (How nice that our scientists who explored Antarctica, unlike my acquaintance, were not
guided by Dumas' novels).
