2. Analysis of the poetic text.
- Usually a person in a ballad felt the power of higher mysterious forces over himself, which are always ready to lead him astray from the right path and carry him to death. But not only evil forces test the spirit and soul of man. He is also under the cover of the Creator who is always ready to protect him and come to his aid. The word is, a person has a choice. In the ballad "Svetlana" folk principles triumph, the bearer of which is Svetlana. Zhukovsky embodied in her the character of a Russian girl, open love, faithful to folk-religious ideals and rejoicing in the happiness of living.
