Tatiana appears in Chapter II of the novel. The choice of the name of the heroine and the thinking of the author on this matter, as it were, indicate a distinctive feature in comparison with other characters:
Her sister was called Tatiana ...
Tender pages of the novel
For the first time with such a name
We willfully sanctify.
In these lines, the author introduces Tatiana to the reader for the first time. We see the image of a simple provincial girl with very peculiar features. Tatyana was “wild, sad, silent”, “in her own family she seemed a stranger to a girl,” “often all day she sat silently at the window”. She did not play with the friends of her sister Olga, "she was bored with their ringing laughter and the noise of their windy pleasures." Larina grows up thoughtful and lonely. The environment to which parents, relatives, guests belong, i.e. the society of local nobles is something alien to her, which has almost no effect on Tatiana. The formation of her personality is more strongly influenced by other aspects of her being. She is captivated by "terrible stories in winter in the dark of nights", i.e. fairy tales of the serf nanny. She loves nature, reads the novels of Richardson and Rousseau, which educate her sensitivity, develop her imagination.
The appearance of Onegin, who immediately struck Tatyana with his peculiarity, dissimilarity with others whom she saw around, leads to the fact that love flares up in Tatyana.
The girl in love again turns to books: after all, she has no one to believe her secret, no one to talk to.
Sincere and strong love does not willingly take on the character of those passionate and strong feelings that the loving and suffering heroines of the books read are endowed with.
So, Tatyana was strongly influenced by the sentimental west, but the European romance. But this, of course, was not the main factor in Tatiana's development.
An episode of Tatyana's conversation with the nanny and a letter to Onegin gives a lot for understanding the image of Tatiana. This whole scene - one of the best in the novel - is something amazing, beautiful, whole.
The nature of Tatyana's frank conversation with the old nanny is such that we see a great closeness between them. The image of Filipyevna carries for yourself the principles of folk wisdom, her words reflect the experience of a long and difficult life of a simple Russian woman. The story is short and simple, but it contains imagery, expressiveness, purity and power of thought and a truly national language. And we vividly imagine Tatiana in her room at night, and
On the bench
With a handkerchief on his gray head,
Before the young heroine,
An old woman in a long quilted jacket.
We begin to understand how much the nanny meant to Tatiana, the closeness to her; we note those purely Russian influences that will take the main place in the formation of Tatiana.
Tatiana perfectly understands the common language of the nanny, for her this language is native. Her speech is figurative and at the same time clear, there are also elements of popular vernacular in it: “I feel sick,” “what do I need,” “let him order” ... and so on.
Tatyana's letter to Onegin is a desperate act, but it is completely alien to the young girl's environment. Larina was guided only by feeling, but not by reason. The love letter does not contain coquetry, antics - Tatiana writes frankly, as her heart tells her.
I am writing to you - what more?
What else can I say?
And after these simple and touching words, in which one can hear awe and restrained excitement, Tatyana, with increasing delight, with excitement, already openly pouring out in the lines of the letter, reveals this “trusting soul” of hers to Onegin. The central part of the letter is the image of Onegin, as he appeared to Tatyana in her imagination inspired by love. The end of the letter is as sincere as the beginning of it. The girl is fully aware of her actions:
I'm finishing! It's scary to reread ...
But your honor is my guarantee,
I freeze with shame and fear ...
And I boldly entrust myself to her ...
The writing scene is over. Tatiana is waiting for an answer. Stingy details marked her condition, immersion in the feeling that took possession of her:
The second meeting with Onegin and his cold "rebuff". But Tatiana does not stop loving.
Love mad suffering
Didn't stop worrying
Young soul ...
Chapter V opens with a landscape of a belated but sudden winter. It is noteworthy that a purely Russian landscape of a winter estate and a village is given through the perception of it by Tatyana.
Waking up early
Trees in winter silver
Tatyana saw through the window
Forty merry in the yard
In the morning a whitewashed yard
And softly covered mountains
And in direct connection with the pictures of native nature, the author's statement of the national, Russian appearance of the heroine is expressed:
Tatiana (Russian soul,
With her cold beauty
Without knowing why)
Loved the Russian winter ...
Poetic pictures of Christmas divination also connect Tatyana with the Russian, national, folk principle.
"... Tatiana, on the advice of the nanny" bewitches at night in the bath.
Russian national traits are more and more clearly put forward in the development of the image of Tatiana.
In the portrayal of Tatyana, Pushkin completely rejects all irony, and in this sense, Tatyana is the only character in the novel, towards whom from the moment of its appearance until the end we feel only the love and respect of the author. The poet repeatedly calls Tatiana "darling", declares: "I love Tatiana my dear so much."
Tatyana's dream is a fantastic combination of motives from the nanny's fairy tales, pictures that arose in the play of Tatyana's own imagination, but at the same time - and real life impressions. The artistic meaning of the dream in the story of Tatiana is an expression of the heroine's state of mind, her thoughts about Onegin (he appears to her strong in her sleep, but also formidable, dangerous, terrible), and at the same time - a presentiment of future misfortunes.
All subsequent tragedies: the death of Lensky, the departure of Evgeny, the imminent marriage of his sister - deeply touched Tatyana's heart. Impressions from reading books are enriched by the harsh lessons of life. Gradually, Tatiana is gaining life experience and seriously thinks about her fate. The image of Tatiana in the course of events is all enriched, but by nature Tatiana is still the same, and her "fiery and tender heart" is still given to the feeling that possessed her once and for all.
Visiting Onegin's house, Tatiana devotes herself to reading with a "greedy soul". Byron's poems and novels are added to previously read sentimental novels.
Reading Onegin's books is a new step in Tatyana's development. She does not willingly compare what she knows about Onegin with what she learns from books. A whole swarm of new thoughts, assumptions. In the last stanzas of Chapter VII, Tatiana is in Moscow society. She "... is not good at housewarming", she seems strange to the young ladies of the Moscow noble circle, she is still restrained, silent
At the end of the work, Tatyana is a lady of a secular society for us, but Pushkin clearly distinguishes her from the circle into which her fate has led. Drawing her appearance at a social event, the poet emphasizes both the aristocracy of Tatiana, in the high Pushkin understanding of the word, and her simplicity.
She was unhurried
Without these little antics
Not cold, not talkative,
Without imitative undertakings ...
Without an insolent gaze for all,
Everything is quiet, it was just in her ...
Episodes of meetings with Onegin after long years of separation emphasize Tatiana's complete self-control. Larina turned into a secular lady, into an "indifferent princess", "an impregnable goddess of the luxurious, regal Neva." But her worldview has not changed, her principles and foundations have remained the same. It was these principles that prevailed over Tatyana's innermost feeling: over her love for Eugene. The whole essence of Larina's character is revealed in her last monologue:
...You must,
I know: in your heart there is
And pride and outright honor ...
I ask you to leave me;
And pride and outright honor ...
In our imagination, the image of Tatiana will forever remain something high, unshakable, pure and beautiful.
We also understand all the poet's love for his creation, when in the last stanza of the novel, saying goodbye to the heroes, he recalls "Tatiana's dear ideal."

2. The teacher's word
Alexander Pushkin called his novel "Eugene Onegin". But throughout the novel, the author did not hide his sympathy for Tatiana Larina, emphasizing her sincerity, depth of feelings and emotions, innocence and devotion to love, calling her a "sweet ideal." You cannot pass by Tatiana indifferently. It is not for nothing that Eugene Onegin, having visited the Larins' house for the first time, says to Lensky:
(slide 3) What does Tatyana Larina appear before us at the beginning of the novel? ( homework implementation) (slide 4) (The presentation of Tatyana Larina will reveal her inner inconsistency: genuine feelings and sensitivity coexist in her)."Are you in love with the smaller one?"
- What? - “I would choose another,
If I was like you, a poet.
Olga has no life in her features.
3. What influenced the formation of Tatiana's character?
Possible answers:
- communication with nature;
- the way of life on the Larins estate;
- nanny influence;
- reading novels.
Indeed, Pushkin himself, characterizing his heroine, emphasizes that novels "replaced everything for her." Tatyana, dreamy, alienated from her friends, so unlike Olga, perceives everything around her as an unwritten novel, imagines herself to be the heroine of her favorite novels. Therefore, today in the lesson we will get acquainted with Tatyana Larina's reading circle.
4. Announcement of the topic of the lesson, setting goals and objectives. (slides 5, 6)
5. Conversation on the topic of the lesson
- Who are they, Tatiana's favorite heroines? ( slides 7, 8)
Imagining a heroine
Your beloved creators,
Clarissa, Julia, Dolphin ,
Tatiana in the silence of the woods
Alone with a dangerous book wanders
She searches in her and finds
Your secret heat, your dreams
The fruits of heart fullness
Sighs and, appropriating himself
Another's delight, another's sadness,
In oblivion whispers by heart
A letter for a sweet hero ...
Short messages from students based on their individual research about the listed heroines(Clarissa- the heroine of Richardson's novel "Clarissa Garlow" (1749); Julia - the heroine of Russo's novel "New Eloise" (1761); Dolphin- the heroine of the novel by Madame de Stael "Dolphin" (1802)) and expressive reading of excerpts from these novels.
- Why does Pushkin call the books that Tatyana reads "dangerous"?
She liked novels early;
They replaced everything for her;
She fell in love with deceptions
And Richardson and Russo ...
Possible answer:
Tatiana perceives the surrounding reality as another novel; she builds her behavior according to the novel models she knows. Students mark the key words: "appropriating someone else's delight, someone else's sadness", "they replaced everything for her," "deceptions"
- Let's get acquainted with the authors of the novels read by Tatiana Larina. (Defense of projects dedicated to the works of J.J. Rousseau and S. Richardson) (slide 10)What do these authors have in common? (these are writers - sentimentalists).
- Features of sentimentalism as a literary movement. ( slide 11) (The discussion of this issue takes place in groups for 5-7 minutes, then one representative from the group speaks, the rest complement, correct, evaluate the answers).
- What attracts Tatiana in their novels?
Possible answer:
first of all, the sincerity of feelings, Tatiana is close to the idea of \u200b\u200bsentimentalism about the moral equality of people ("And peasant women know how to love!" N.M. Karamzin "Poor Liza"). Tatiana imagines herself the heroine of her favorite novels and sees Onegin as the hero of such a novel. But Pushkin sneers: "But our hero, whoever he was, was certainly not Grandinson."
- A completely different world opens up to Tatiana when she visits his estate.
Then I started working on books.
At first she had no time for them,
But the choice of them seemed
She is strange. Indulged in reading
Tatiana with a greedy soul;
And another world was revealed to her.

An important place in the novel "Eugene Onegin" takes the image of Tatiana Larina - "sweet ideal" of Pushkin. It was in her person that the poet embodied the best feminine qualities that he noticed earlier in life. And the most important thing for the poet is that the heroine is a “Russian soul”. What makes her so and what features of her character are close to Pushkin?
The poet emphasizes the closeness of the heroine to nature in her portrait: Dika, sad, silent, ...
Like a forest doe, fearful ...
Tatiana likes to meet the sunrise, wander through the forests, enjoy the silence and harmony of nature. It is no coincidence that the heroine does not want to leave the estate. Tatiana Pushkin endows it with a non-traditional for noble heroines, Russian name, After all, the heroine is the embodiment national character ... It is closely linked with the life of the people by spiritual ties. Tatiana's best personality traits are rooted in folk soil. Raised by a simple peasant woman, just like Pushkin himself - by Arina Radionovna, Tatyana took from Filipyevna all the folk wisdom, comprehended the concepts of good and evil, duty. Knowledge of folklore, fairy tales, rituals, folk traditions, Russian dreams is proof of this.
Pushkin is always happy to emphasize Tatiana's individuality. The heroine's feelings are full of sincerity and purity. She knows neither mannered cunning, nor sly coquetry, nor sentimental sensitivity - all that was characteristic of most of her peers. She loves Onegin seriously, for life. Her naively pure, touching and sincere letter breathes with deep feeling, it is full of sublime simplicity. The quivering words of her declaration of love for Eugene are so similar to those of Pushkin himself!
Pushkin admires natural mind his heroine. Tatiana's intellectual development helps her to understand in St. Petersburg to maintain her high moral character. And the light sees in her a strong-willed nature, realizes her superiority. But, even though Tatyana hides her feelings under the guise of a society lady, Pushkin still sees her suffering. Tatiana wants to run to the village, but cannot. The heroine is not capable of breaking the bonds of marriage with the man she married. Whoever he was, she would never hurt him. This once again proves her spiritual superiority over those around her, her loyalty, devotion to her husband.
In the novel “Eugene Onegin,” Pushkin created a new literary type, which has no analogues in Russian literature. According to Belinsky, "he was the first to poetically reproduce, in the person of Tatiana, a Russian woman."
In the novel "Eugene Onegin" in the image of Tatyana Larina all Pushkin's ideas about the ideal are embodied. Tatiana is Pushkin's favorite heroine. He confesses: "I love my dear Tatiana so much." He sincerely empathizes: "Tatiana, dear Tatiana! Now I shed tears with you ...", he is proud of her nobility when she rejects Onegin's love in the name of duty: I love you (why dissemble?), But I am given to another;
I will be faithful to him forever.
The ability to self-sacrifice is characteristic of Tatiana. She carried love for Onegin throughout her life, was the first to confess her love to him, endured the humiliation of his refusal, did not lose her dignity, realizing the frivolity of Eugene's attitude to her, and managed to build her life by "dominating herself." Having given her hand to her husband, mutilated in battles, she will never betray him
She was an extraordinary person. She did not play with dolls, she did not imitate the ladies of high society. This is probably why, having married and getting into the world, she stood out noticeably there. In the light She was unhurried,
Not cold, not talkative, Without an arrogant gaze for everyone, Without claims to success, Without these little antics,
Without imitative undertakings ... Everything is quiet, it was just in her ...
Tatiana from childhood differed from coquettes in that she had a rich inner world, an inquisitive contemplative world, Pushkinskaya Tatiana, despite the fact that she was "wild, sad, silent, like a forest doe, fearful", nevertheless "gifted from heaven" and by the will of a living, And a wayward head ...
Tatiana's soulful, poetic love makes her image inimitable, worthy of respect. The reader experiences with her the bitterness of unrequited love. Having learned a bitter lesson, having listened to Onegin's moral teachings, she continues to keep in herself this high feeling, love in her understanding of this word. Onegin's refusal did not humiliate her, but elevated her.
Pushkin once again brought the heroes together in a similar situation a few years later. Now Tatiana, who married the general, listens to Onegin's declarations of love. In her rebuke there is no gloating. Despite the fact that she now belongs to high society, she is still simple and natural, and Onegin asks a question that betrays a reasonable and sober nature in her: "Why do you have me in mind?" And since Onegin has nothing to answer, she answers herself: Is it not because my shame Now would be noticed by everyone And could bring you a seductive honor in society?
it does not triumph over victory, does not seek revenge for past humiliations. She does not want to play cheap social games, does not accept relationships behind her husband's back, and although she again confesses her love for Onegin, rejects his courtship. Nobody has taught Onegin such a lesson before. This is the act of a person of high morality with a deeply conscious sense of his own dignity. Tatyana refused the love of a man whom she herself had loved for many years, in order not to tarnish the honest name of her husband in society.
It seems to me that such concepts as loyalty, purity, nobility, embodied by Pushkin in the image of Tatiana, have not become obsolete until now. Yes, the relationship between a man and a woman has become somewhat simpler and more primitive, but every person, dreaming of true and only love for a lifetime, has in mind exactly such a beautiful and genuine feeling, like Tatyana has for Onegin.
Along with Onegin's image, Tatyana's image is the most significant in the novel. He performs an important plot and compositional function, being in the ideological and artistic structure of the novel a counterbalance to the image of Onegin. The relationship between Onegin and Tatiana constitutes the main storyline of Pushkin's novel in verse. Tatiana is an exception from her environment. “She seemed like a stranger to her family as a girl,” and Tatiana painfully feels this: “Imagine: I'm here alone, no one understands me.” Tatiana fell in love with Onegin because, as the poet says, “the time has come”, but it is no coincidence that she fell in love with Onegin. At the same time, the character of Tatyana developed in a completely different social environment than the character of Onegin. Tatiana, according to the poet, is "a Russian soul, not knowing why." Tatyana (whose name, for the first time "willfully" introduced by Pushkin into big literature, entails the associations of "old or maiden") grew up, in complete contrast to Onegin, "in the wilderness of a forgotten village." Childhood, adolescence and adolescence of Tatiana and Eugene are directly opposite. Eugene has foreign tutors; Tatyana has a simple Russian peasant nanny, the prototype of which was his own nanny Arina Rodionovna. Tatiana dreams of real, great love. These dreams, as well as the formation of Tatiana's entire spiritual world, were significantly influenced by the novels of Richardson and Russo. The poet informs us that his heroine "spoke with difficulty in her native language"; a letter to Onegin is written by her in French. Tatiana is a highly positive, “ideal” image of a Russian girl and woman. At the same time, the poet, with the help of a subtle artistic and psychological technique, reveals Tatyana's "Russian soul": the heroine's dream, thoroughly permeated with folklore, is introduced into the novel. In the image of Tatiana Pushkin put all those traits of a Russian girl, the totality of which represents an undoubted ideal for the author. These are the features of character that make Tatyana a truly Russian, and not a secular young lady. The formation of these traits occurs on the basis of the "tradition of the common people of antiquity", beliefs, legends. Tatyana Larina for Dostoevsky was the personification of everything Russian, national, an "ideal", an expression of spiritual and moral strength. National poetry is included in the novel along with the image of Tatiana. In connection with it, stories are introduced about customs, "the habits of sweet antiquity", fortune-telling, fairy-tale folklore. They contain a certain morality associated with folk philosophy. Thus, the fortune-telling scene reveals the philosophy of the female soul, the Russian soul. The very idea of \u200b\u200bthe betrothed is associated with the idea of \u200b\u200bduty, the betrothed is thought of as destined for fate. Folklore motifs also appear in Tatyana's dreams, folk art and philosophy are presented as organically connected with her personality. Two cultures - national Russian and Western European - are harmoniously combined in her image. In the depiction of the image of Tatiana, which is so dear to the poet, with no less degree than in the image of Onegin, one can feel Pushkin's desire to be completely faithful to the truth of life. Tatiana, unlike Onegin, grew up "in the wilderness of a forgotten village", in the atmosphere of Russian folk tales, "legends of the common people of antiquity" told by a nanny, a simple Russian peasant woman. The author says that Tatyana read foreign novels, could hardly express herself in her native language, but at the same time, with the help of a subtle psychological technique, she reveals her "Russian soul" (Tanya has a French book under her pillow, but she sees Russian "common people" dreams). Tatiana is a poetic nature, deep, passionate, longing for real, great love. Having become a trendsetter in the world, she not only did not lose the best features of her spiritual image - purity, spiritual nobility, sincerity and depth of feelings, poetic perception of nature - but also acquired new valuable qualities that made her irresistible in the eyes of Onegin. Tatyana is the ideal image of a Russian girl and woman, but an image that was not invented by Pushkin, but taken from real life. Tatiana can never be happy with an unloved person, she, like Onegin, became a victim of the light. "Nature created Tatiana for love, society re-created her," wrote V.G. Belinsky. One of the key events in the novel is Onegin's meeting with Tatiana. He immediately appreciated her uncommonness, poetry, her sublimely romantic nature, and was quite surprised that the romantic poet Lensky did not notice anything of this and preferred a much more earthly and ordinary younger sister. Tatiana is strikingly different from the people around her. “A district young lady,” nevertheless, like Onegin and Lensky, she also feels lonely and incomprehensible in a provincial - local environment. “Imagine, I am here alone, No one understands me,” she admits in a letter to Onegin. Even “in her own family,” she “seemed like a stranger to a girl,” avoiding games with her friends - peers. The reason for such alienation and loneliness is in the unusual, exclusive nature of Tatyana, gifted "from heaven" "With a rebellious imagination, Mind and will of a living, And a wayward head, And a fiery and tender heart." In Tatyana's romantic soul, two principles were uniquely combined. Akin to Russian nature and folk-patriarchal way of life, habits and traditions of "dear old days", she lives in another - a fictional, dreamy world. Tatiana is a zealous reader of foreign novels, mostly moralizing and sentimental, where ideal heroes act, and good triumphs in the finale. She prefers to wander through the fields "with a sad thought in her eyes, with a French book in her hands." Accustomed to identifying herself with the virtuous heroines of her favorite authors, she and Onegin, who is so unlike those around her, is ready to accept a model for "perfection", as if descended from the pages of Richardson and Rousseau, the hero she had long dreamed of. The "literary character" of the situation is further enhanced by the fact that Tatyana's letter to Onegin is full of reminiscences from French novels. However, book borrowings cannot overshadow the direct, sincere and deep feeling that Tatiana's letter is imbued with. And the very fact of a message to a barely familiar man speaks of the heroine's passion and reckless courage, resorting to fears of being compromised in the eyes of others. This letter, naive, gentle, trusting, finally convinced Onegin of Tatiana's unusualness, in her spiritual purity and inexperience, in her superiority over the cold and calculating secular coquettes, it revived in him the best, long-forgotten memories and feelings. And yet, to Tatyana's passionate message, "where everything is outside, everything is free," Onegin responds with a cold rebuff. Why? First of all, of course, because Onegin and Tatiana are at different stages of spiritual and moral development and can hardly understand each other. In fact, Tatyana did not really fall in love with Onegin, but a certain image she had composed, which she took for Onegin. During the explanation with Tatyana in the garden, he was not at all cunning and, frankly, honestly, opened everything to her as it is. He admitted that he likes Tatiana, but he is not ready for marriage, does not want and cannot limit his life to the "home circle", that his interests and goals are different, that he is afraid of the prosaic side of marriage and that he will get bored with family life. "This is not the first time he has shown a direct nobility to the Soul" Tatiana's dream is "the key to understanding her soul, her essence." Replacing the direct and detailed characterization of the heroine, it allows one to penetrate into the most intimate, unconscious depths of her psyche, her emotional makeup. However, he also plays another important role - prophecies about the future, for the heroine's "wonderful dream" is a prophetic dream. In symbolic ritual and folklore images, almost all the main events of the subsequent narrative are predicted here: the heroine's exit from her "own" world (crossing a stream is a traditional image of marriage in folk wedding poetry). the upcoming marriage (the bear is the Christmastide image of the groom), the appearance in the forest hut - the house of the betrothed or lover and recognition of his true, hitherto hidden essence, a bunch of "hellish ghosts", so reminiscent of guests on Tatyana's birthday, the quarrel between Onegin and Lensky, which ended with the murder of the young poet The main thing is that the heroine intuitively sees the demonic principle in the soul of her chosen one (Onegin as the head of the host of hellish monsters), which is soon confirmed by his "strange behavior with Olga" on the day of the name day and the bloody denouement of the fight with Lensky. Tatiana's dream thus means a new step in her comprehension of Onegin's character. If earlier she saw in him an ideal-virtuous hero, similar to the characters of her favorite novels, now she almost goes to the opposite extreme. Finding herself after the owner's departure in Onegin's house, Tatyana starts reading books in his village office. Unlike the novels of Richardson and Rousseau, heroes who were cold and devastated, disenchanted and selfish, heroes who commit crimes, do evil and enjoy evil, dominated here. Meeting with Tatiana - the princess makes a strong impression on Onegin. Her new look, manners, style of behavior meet the most stringent requirements of good taste, high tone and do not a little resemble the habits of the former provincial young lady. Onegin sees: she has learned noble restraint, knows how to "rule herself", he is amazed at the change that has occurred to her, which seems to him absolute, complete: Although he looked no more diligently, But Onegin could not find traces of the former Tatyana. Onegin persistently seeks meetings with Tatyana, writes her one after another passionate love confessions, and having lost hope for reciprocity, he falls seriously ill and almost dies of love (in the same way Tatyana turned pale, faded and faded in her time). Belinsky severely condemned Tatyana for continuing to love Onegin in her heart, choosing to remain faithful to patriarchal morals and rejecting his feelings. According to the critic, family relationships "not sanctified by love are extremely immoral." Dostoevsky regarded this act of Tatyana as sacrificial. In the finale, Onegin catches Tatiana by surprise and makes an incredible discovery that so amazed him. It turns out that Tatiana has changed only externally, internally she largely remained "the same Tanya"! And such women are not capable of adultery. It is this sudden epiphany of Eugene that gives the final scene an acute drama and bitter hopelessness. Just as Onegin until now did not suspect that "the old Tanya" lived in the princess, so Tatiana could not know what happened to Onegin after the duel. She believed that she had solved Onegin once and for all. For her, he is still a cold, devastated, selfish person. This explains Tatiana's harsh rebuke, mirroring Onegin's cold rebuke. But in Tatiana's monologue, different notes sound. The reproaches of the offended woman imperceptibly turn into confession, striking in its frankness and fearless sincerity. Tatiana admits that her successes "in the whirlwind of light" weigh on her, that she would prefer her former inconspicuous existence in the wilderness to the current tinsel of life. Not only that: she directly tells Onegin, acted "carelessly", deciding on a loveless marriage, that she still loves him and sadly experiences the missed opportunity of happiness. Tatiana's nature is not complex, but deep and strong. Tatyana does not have these painful contradictions that overly complex natures suffer from; Tatiana was created as if from one single piece, without any attachments and impurities. Her whole life is imbued with that integrity, that unity that in the world of art is the highest dignity of a work of art.
