Stone guest for the reader's diary. stone guest
Don Juan and his servant Leporello are sitting at the gates of Madrit. They are going to wait here for the night, so that under its cover they can enter the city. The nonchalant Don Juan thinks he won't be recognized in town, but the sober Leporello is sarcastic about it. However, no danger can stop Don Juan. He is sure that the king, having learned about his unauthorized return from exile, will not execute him, that the king sent him into exile in order to save the family of the nobleman he killed from revenge. But he cannot stay in exile for a long time, and most of all he is dissatisfied with the women there, who seem to him like wax dolls.
Looking around, Don Juan recognizes the area. This is the Antoniev Monastery, where he met with his beloved Ineza, who turned out to have a jealous husband. Poetically inspired Don Juan describes her features and sad look. Leporello reassures him that Don Juan had and will still have lovers. He is interested in who this time his master will be looking for in Madrit. Don Juan intends to look for Laura. While Don Juan is dreaming, a monk appears who, seeing the visitors, wonders if they are the people of Dona Anna, who is about to come here to the grave of her husband, Commodore de Solva, who was killed in a duel by "the shameless, godless Don Guan" , as the monk calls him, unaware that he is talking to Don Juan himself. He says that the widow erected a monument to her husband and every day she comes to pray for the repose of his soul. Don Juan thinks this behavior of the widow is strange, and he wonders if she is good. He asks permission to talk to her, but the monk replies that Dona Anna does not talk to men. And at this time, Dona Anna appears, the Monk unlocks the grate, and she passes, so that Don Juan does not have time to examine her, but his imagination, which, according to Leporello, is “quicker than a painter,” is able to paint her portrait. Don Juan decides to get acquainted with Dona Anna, Leporello shames him for blasphemy. As the conversation grows dark, the master and his servant enter Madrit.
Guests dine in Laura's room and admire her talent and inspired acting. They ask Laura to sing. Even the gloomy Carlos seems to be touched by her singing, but upon learning that the words of this song were written by Don Juan, who was Laura's lover, Don Carlos calls him an atheist and a scoundrel. Enraged, Laura screams that she is now ordering her servants to kill Carlos, even that Spanish grandee. The fearless Don Carlos is ready, but the guests calm them down. Laura believes that the reason for Carlos's rude antics is that Don Juan killed Don Carlos' brother in a fair duel. Don Carlos admits he was wrong and they reconcile. Having sung one more song at the general request, Laura says goodbye to the guests, but asks Don Carlos to stay. She says that with his temperament he reminded her of Don Juan. Laura and Don Carlos are talking, and at this time there is a knock and someone calls Laura. Laura unlocks and Don Juan enters. Carlos, hearing this name, calls himself and demands an immediate duel. Despite Laura's protests, the grandees fight and Don Juan kills Don Carlos. Laura is confused, but, having learned that Don Juan had just secretly returned to Madrit and immediately rushed to her, she softens.
After killing Don Carlos, Don Juan, in monastic guise, hides in the Antoniev Monastery and, standing at the monument to the commander, thanks fate that she thus gave him the opportunity to see the lovely Don Anna every day. He intends to speak to her today and hopes that he will be able to attract her attention. Looking at the statue of the commander, Don Juan is ironic that here the victim is represented by a giant, although he was frail in life. Dona Anna enters and spots the monk. She asks for forgiveness that she prevented him from praying, to which the monk replies that it is he who is to blame before her, for he prevents her sadness from “flowing freely”; he admires her beauty and angelic meekness. Such speeches surprise and embarrass Dona Anna, and the monk unexpectedly admits that under this dress the nobleman Diego de Calvada, the victim of an unfortunate passion for her, is hiding. With ardent speeches, Don Juan persuades Don Anna not to persecute him, and the embarrassed Don Anna invites him to come to her house the next day, on condition that he be modest. Dona Anna leaves, and Don Juan demands that Leporello invite the statue of the Commander to tomorrow's date. It seems to the timid Leporello that the statue nods in response to this blasphemous proposal. Don Juan himself repeats his invitation, and the statue nods again. Startled, Don Juan and Leporello leave.
Dona Anna is talking to Don Diego in her house. She admits that Don Alvar was not her chosen one, that her mother forced her into this marriage. Don Diego is jealous of the commander, who, in exchange for empty riches, got true bliss. Such speeches confuse Don Anna. She is reproached by the thought of a dead husband who would never have received a lady in love if he had been a widower. Don Diego asks her not to torment his heart with eternal reminders of her husband, although he deserves to be executed. Dona Anna is interested in what exactly Don Diego has done wrong to her, and in response to her persistent requests, Don Juan reveals to her his true name, the name of her husband's killer. Dona Anna is amazed and, under the influence of what happened, loses her senses. Recovering herself, she chases Don Juan. Don Juan agrees that the rumor does not in vain paint him as a villain, but he assures that he was reborn, having experienced love for her. As a pledge of farewell before parting, he asks to give him a cold peaceful kiss. Dona Anna kisses him, and Don Juan leaves, but immediately runs back in. Behind him enters the statue of the commander, who came to the call. The commander accuses Don Juan of cowardice, but he boldly holds out his hand to shake hands with a stone statue, from which he dies with the name of Dona Anna on his lips.
“Little Tragedies” is a cycle of dramatic works, which A.S. Pushkin wrote in the autumn of 1830, “locked up” in the village of Boldino, when this part of Russia was engulfed by a cholera epidemic. One of the tragedies included in the cycle is "The Stone Guest" - a small but very capacious work written on the popular story of Don Juan. The legendary seducer of women's hearts, duelist and "hooligan" has been a very popular character since the Renaissance. Pushkin used the famous story about the seduction of Donna Anna, the widow of the Commander killed in a duel by Don Juan, who came from the underworld to take revenge on his killer.
A.S. Pushkin. "Stone Guest" Summary
The tragedy has four scenes. The first is the secret arrival of Don Juan with the servant Leporello from exile in Madrid. Waiting for darkness near the monastery walls, he learns that Donna Anna comes here to the grave of her husband, who was killed by him in a duel. Juan wants to get to know her, he is thrilled, he dreams of new victories over women, and the inconsolable widow is a suitable target for this. Darkness descends on Madrid, and the voluptuary hurries to his former beloved Laura.

He is annoyed and annoyed, because Laura performs a song once composed by her windy lover Juan. Suddenly, he himself appears. There is a skirmish with Carlos, a quarrel, a duel, and he falls dead.
"Stone Guest": a summary. scene three
After spending the night with Laura, Don Juan returns to the monastery the next day and, disguised as a monk, awaits the arrival of Donna Anna. A young widow appears. She offers to pray with her, but the Spaniard admits that he is not a monk, but a caballero in love with her. He tempts the woman with passionate speeches and asks for a secret meeting at her house. She agrees. Anticipating another victory and triumphant, Don Juan sends his servant to the commander's grave to invite him to a joint dinner at the widow's. To the servant following the command, it seems that the statue nodded in response. Frightened, he reports this to the owner. Don Juan, not believing, decides to repeat his invitation himself and notices with horror the nod of the statue.
Summary. "Stone Guest": scene four, final
In the evening, in her house, Donna Anna hosts, unknowingly, the murderer of her husband. Don Juan, calling himself Diego, confesses his passionate love to her, trying to seduce the young widow. Seeing her favor, he decides to confess who he really is. Donna Anna, seeing and realizing who is in front of her, is in disarray. Footsteps are heard, the door swings open, a statue of the commander enters. Everyone is horrified. Don Juan, however, boldly greets him, holding out his hand. Together they fall into hell.
This is just a summary. "The Stone Guest" is a work included in the cycle, united by the name "Little Tragedies", small, but very capacious and significant. In the plays of other authors about Don Juan, this character is depicted sharply negatively. He is a terrible sinner, a corrupter and destroyer of women, who turned love into a gambling game. A.S. Pushkin's Don Juan, despite his negative characteristics, is very attractive. For what? This image is solid and strong. The boredom of life around him makes him constantly seek adventure and defy fate. “There is ecstasy in battle and a gloomy abyss on the edge,” Pushkin wrote in another of his works. This ecstasy on the edge of a gloomy abyss attracts Don Juan. Being constantly on the edge of the abyss, he runs the risk of falling, disappearing. Is he scared? Perhaps, but passion always wins fear. To convey only the superficial plot of the work, it is enough to give a brief summary. "The Stone Guest" is a complex philosophical drama, the meaning of which can be comprehended by reading it in its entirety and thinking about each phrase.
scene one
Don Juan and his servant Leporello came to Madrid. Pushkin does not specify where exactly this scene takes place, but it appears to be a tavern located outside the city gates. Don Juan imagines himself on the streets of Madrid and asks Leporello if he covers his mustache with a cloak and his eyebrows with a hat, will they recognize him?
Leporello is a lively fellow, he does not miss an opportunity not to once again insolence the owner. He replies that anyone can recognize Don Juan:
The first watchman
Gitan or drunken musician
Or your brother is a cheeky cavalier,
With a sword under his arm and in a raincoat.
Don Juan remarks that if only the king did not recognize him. However, he is not afraid of anyone. The king expelled him from Madrid only so that the relatives of the commander killed by don Juan would not get him. Apparently, Don Juan was exiled somewhere to the north, where most women are blondes, whom Pushkin, for some reason, has a negative attitude towards.
I liked them at first
Blue eyes, yes whiteness,
Yes, modesty - and even more novelty;
Yes, thank God, I soon guessed -
I saw that it was a sin to know them -
There is no life in them, all wax dolls;
The reader meets a similar definition of fair-haired representatives of the weaker sex in the description of Olga from Eugene Onegin. Don Juan remembers the women he spent time with in exile.
Leporello asks who Don Juan is going to visit in Madrid. And he enthusiastically replies that to Laura.
A monk enters the tavern. He says that Donna Anna, the Commander's wife, should come here. She erected a monument to the commander and comes here every day to honor his memory and pray for the repose of his soul.
Soon Dona Anna herself came here, and the monk leaves with her. Don Juan became interested in the widow and decided to get to know her better. Leporello condemns his master.
scene two
The action takes place in Laura's room. She has guests. Laura sings for them. Guests express admiration for her singing. One of the guests asked who was the author of the poems she sang. She replies that it was composed by her windy lover Don Juan. Don Carlos, who turned out to be the commander's brother, insults Don Guan and Laura. The woman threatens to call her servants, who will be able to put the insolent man in his place. The guests reconcile the quarreled. Don Carlos asks Laura for forgiveness.
Laura sings another farewell song and announces that the evening is over and it's time for the guests to leave. Everyone gets up, says goodbye, and Laura asks Don Carlos to stay. Don Carlos condemns Laura for her frivolous lifestyle. At the request of Laura, he opens the balcony, the woman admires the night air filled with the aroma of lemons and laurel. At this moment there is a knock on the door. Don Juan enters the room. Laura happily throws herself on his neck.
Upon learning that the killer of her brother came to Laura, Don Carlos strikes a pose. Don Juan proposes to postpone the duel until the morning, but the excited Don Carlos insists on his own. They fight right in Laura's room. Don Juan strikes the death blow, Don Carlos falls.
Laura is outraged and scared. But Don Juan yearns for tenderness. He promises Laura that he will take the body out of the house in the morning and leave it at the crossroads.
scene three
Don Juan is waiting for Don Anna near the monument to the Commander. A few days have passed since the murder of Don Carlos. He, along with his servant, settled in a tavern outside the city, and did not enter the city again. From Don Juan's monologue, it becomes known that he has been watching the Commander's wife for several days, but today he decided to talk to her. Dona Anna mistook him for a monk. But Don Juan admitted that he was not a monk, but "a victim of a hopeless passion." An experienced seducer set up cunning nets in front of the poor woman, and she could not resist, made an appointment with him in her house.
Come on - this is not the place
Such speeches, such madness. Tomorrow
Come to me. If you swear
Keep me the same respect
I will accept you; but in the evening, later, -
I haven't seen anyone since then
How widowed...
Don Juan called her Diego de Calvado. Dona Anna said goodbye to him and left. Leporello approached Don Juan, and he shares his joy with the servant. But this is not the joy of a lover, but the joy of a winner. He asks Leporello to call the Statue of the Commander to Dona Anna's house. Leporello is terrified, but under even greater fear of getting a slap in the face, he still passes the request of Don Guan to the Statue. In response, the Statue nods its head. Leporello screams and tells Don Juan that the statue is bowing. Don Juan did not believe, and repeated his request, to which the statue nodded its head and Don Juan.
scene four
The last scene takes place in Dona Anna's room. Don Juan expresses admiration for Dona Anna. Dona Anna admits that she married not for love, but at the insistence of her mother, in order to improve the plight of the family. Donna Anna condemns herself for accepting Don Juan. Don Juan admits that he never loved anyone the way he loves her, speaks about who he really is.
I killed
your wife; and I don't regret
About that - and there is no repentance in me.
And at the moment when an explanation takes place between Dona Anna and Don Juan, a statue of the Commander enters the room. The statue shakes hands with Don Juan, and he dies.
This is the summary of The Stone Guest. Belinsky considered the tragedy one of the best works of Pushkin. And it's worth the read.
Like other "little tragedies", "The Stone Guest" was completed by A.S. Pushkin in the "Boldino autumn" (in 1830). It was not published during the life of the poet. The plot of The Stone Guest is traditional. Pushkin gave his own interpretation to the famous legend, saturating it with new artistic content. The idea of "The Stone Guest" is an analysis of love passion, to which the whole life of the protagonist is subordinated.
Exposition of the image of the main character
The scene begins with a conversation between the Spanish grandee Don Juan and his servant Leporello at the gates of Madrit. Their plans are to wait until nightfall to enter the city. The fact is that Don Juan is in exile - the king sent him into exile. And everything is to blame - a duel in which Don Juan killed a nobleman, which brought the wrath and threats of revenge from his family. The king decided to save his favorite and expelled him from the city. Don Juan was not able to stay in exile for long, he became bored. Most of all, he was disappointed there in women, attractive at first glance, but lifeless, like wax dolls.
Once near the St. Anthony Monastery, the servant Leporello recalls how he was waiting in the grove for his master, who met his beloved woman here. The summary of the "Stone Guest" tells about this love story of the hero. Don Juan had to look after Inesa for a long time. And only three months later she resigned. Inez was not distinguished by her beauty: a woman with a sad look, dead lips, with a quiet voice, like that of a sick woman. But her eyes made a huge impression on Don Juan. However, Inez's husband turned out to be very jealous, he killed her. Don Juan wants to forget about this story and intends to look for his other beloved - Laura. He tells this to his servant.
Dona Anna
The summary of the "Stone Guest" tells about the appearance of a monk. Seeing the visitors, he wonders if they are accompanying Dona Anna, who should now arrive at the grave of her husband, who was killed by the lecher Don Guan. The monk does not suspect that he is talking to the villain himself. He says that the poor widow erected a monument on the grave and visits her husband's grave every day, prays for the repose of his soul and cries. The monk says that Dona Anna is a very attractive woman, but she does not talk to men. Don Juan became very interested in this woman. Seeing her wrapped in a black veil, Don Juan did not have time to examine her, but decided to make sure to get to know her. The servant Leporello reproaches the master for immorality towards the poor woman.
Laura in Pushkin's Stone Guest
Actress Laura's room. Her dinner guests praise her talent and acting skills. They ask Laura to sing. She sings a song composed by her friend and lover Don Guan. The gloomy Don Carlos also really likes her singing, but, having learned about the authorship of Don Juan, he calls him an atheist and a scoundrel. Laura angrily promises him to call the servants to kill Don Carlos. The guests try to calm them down. But then Laura remembers the murder of Don Juan's brother Don Carlos by Don Juan, and therefore forgives him. Before parting with the guests, Laura sings again. The guests disperse. Laura asks Don Carlos to stay. He is too similar in temperament to Don Juan, her lover. During their conversation, there is a knock on the door. Don Juan enters. Don Carlos is furious when he finds out who this guest is. He demands an immediate duel from Don Juan. Even though Laura protests, they begin to fight. During the battle, Don Carlos dies. Laura is outraged. But, having learned that Don Juan, upon returning to the city, immediately came to her, forgives him. They indulge in love.
Imaginary monk
After the assassination of Don Carlos, Don Juan hides in the Antoniev Monastery. He reflects on forced reclusion. Don Juan is grateful to fate that now he has the opportunity to see Dona Anna every day. He wants to get her attention and talk to her. Standing at the statue of the commander, Don Juan is ironic: his statue looks like a giant, but in life he was frail, small in stature.
The summary of "The Stone Guest" continues the appearance of Dona Anna. She asks the imaginary monk to pray, to which Don Juan replies that he is not worthy to repeat her prayers after her. He says that he is guilty before her, as he prevents her sadness from “freely pouring out”. Then Don Juan admits that he admires her during prayer and envies her murdered husband, her angelic meekness delights him. He eloquently tells her about his love for her, that he would like to sing serenades to her so that she understands how much he loves her. Dona Anna is embarrassed. He persuades her about a date, and she, in dismay, agrees to receive him the next day at her house. But Don Juan does not give his real name. He is called Diego de Calvado.
Commander's Invitation
Don Juan triumphs. He tells his servant about it. But Leporello does not approve of the owner's actions. Don Juan wants his servant to invite the commander's statue to his date tomorrow. Leporello complied with his master's demand. But it seemed to him that the commander nodded to him in response. Not believing the cowardly servant, Don Juan decided to repeat his invitation. And the statue nodded again. The master and servant, frightened, leave.
Date scene and tragic denouement
The story of Pushkin's Stone Guest continues with a conversation between Don Juan and Dona Anna. She is not happy, as the memories of her loss are still fresh. She told him that she did not get married at the call of her heart, but at the will of her mother, because her family was poor, and the groom turned out to be rich. Don Juan talks about her envy of her husband Don Alvaro. He regrets that he did not meet Dona Anna earlier. After all, he is also rich. Dona Anna is embarrassed. She is haunted by thoughts of her dead husband, who would never, if he were a widower, accept a lady in love. She believes that she must remain faithful to her husband's coffin. In a conversation, Don Juan reveals his name to Dona Anna and says that it was he who killed her husband. Dona Anna faints. When she comes to her senses, she begins to accuse Don Juan of villainy. He agrees with her, but talks about his rebirth after falling in love with her. At parting Don Anna kisses him.

Option 2
It's getting dark. Senor Guan and his servant Leporello are sitting at the gates of Madrid. They wait until night to enter the city in the dark. Careless Guan is sure that no one will recognize him under cover of night, and the king, having learned about his unauthorized arrival, will not execute him, but will send him into exile, thereby saving the family of the nobleman he killed from revenge. He, looking around, recognizes the Antoniev Monastery, where he met with his beloved Ineza. But she has a jealous husband, so she is always sad. He inspiredly describes her features with the poetry of the poet. A monk comes up to them and asks: are they people of Anna's senorita? She comes to the grave of her husband, who was killed in a duel, and erected a monument to him. She comes every day and prays for the repose of his soul. Señor Guan decides to get to know the widow better.
It's getting dark. Senor Guan and his servant enter the gates of Madrid. Guan wants to find Laura. Guests are having dinner in Laura's room, admiring her professional acting and talent.
