§2. A HERO
TENDERNESS
ОглавлениеBesides the boredom and inspiration with the role of the Hero, there is also a feeling of tenderness.
Plots of chivalric romance are built according to the standard scheme: A hero (for example, a knight) usually wanders in search for adventures (for example, to fight with the Villain, with the dragon). At the same time the Hero, except the loyal friend, still by all means has a beloved, there is “ladylove” for whom the Hero has tender feelings.
The feeling of tenderness generates the aspiration to fondle, caress, take pity on Therefore beloved, regardless of their real size, they are called diminutively caressing names: “baby”, “pussy”, “cutie”, “sweety pie”, “sweetie”, etc.
The feeling of tenderness can be addressed not only to the beloved woman. With tenderness, the mother takes her child in her arms, strokes and kisses him; the dog licks his puppies, and the cat – kittens.
Tenderness is associated with affection, a desire to take in arms and to hide from adversity. Children are taken in hands. They carry beloved in hands. The feeling of tenderness is experienced a small child when he puts to bed with him a favourite teddy bear for the night, embraces him, strokes and gently covers the blanket so that he would not “froze”.
The symbol of the heroic desire to save, hide and protect is a monument to a warrior with a saved child in his arms, installed in the Berlin Treptow Park.
Why does the Hero protect the weak, save them, help them in trouble? Because the Hero is pitiful to weak.
Tenderness is called a sweet feeling or a feeling of affection. Gently beloved call darlings. “Have mercy, pity, host a favour” – that’s what they say when they turn to this part of the human’s soul. With a pity give alms.
The feeling of pity generates such quality of soul as mercy. “Sisters of Mercy” were called nurses in the World War I. Sisters of mercy were treating to wounded with a pity.
