(279 words) Mikhail Bulgakov was a unique phenomenon even for the 20th century. A century that was not deprived of talented people. Everything was subject to the writer. “Dog Heart” is a collection of sophisticated-caustic sarcasm. All the pain of the era is presented in this story.
Through composition, the meaning of the work and language, the author shows that violence against nature leads to collapse. It’s possible to introduce good only gradually, and with bad it’s better not to climb into nature. The author shows a sharp division of people into the intelligentsia, which is represented in the person of Preobrazhensky, and into the "lower classes", the proletariat - people who suddenly received almost unlimited power.
The meaning in the work is as follows: to describe what is happening in society in a veiled and metaphorical way, but so that people can easily understand the meaning. People of the “lower classes” are too weak-minded and cannot independently make decisions and command their own lives. They are ready to rush into battle only at the behest of the "top". It is shown that the civil war did not improve people's minds, but made them only meaner and tougher.
Sharikov, created against all laws of nature, is not viable; he can never become a cultured person. The idea of artificially sculpting new citizens ended in collapse. But, fortunately, people, like Professor Preobrazhensky, have the courage to admit a mistake. The professor corrects his mistake and draws significant conclusions for all of humanity. A new type of people, their thoughts, methods and principles of life will not be able to get along in society. They are unnatural. And what is done against nature cannot produce anything good.
Unfortunately, in life it was not so. The Sharikovs' generation was growing in number, and they felt as if they were all allowed. They did not strive for self-development and well-being of society, for them only their life was important, often idle and meaningless. In this situation, intelligence feels infringed. To have to put up with the power in which the people stand. The story is relevant and contains burning topics that will always be in front of society.
