(353 words) Maria Mironova is the main character in the historical novel by A.S. Pushkin's "Captain's Daughter." The girl grew up in a poor family of Vasilisa Egorovna and captain Mironov, who own only one serf girl Palashka. However, despite this, Masha grew up with a very kind, pure heart and soul.
Her appearance is very sweet and gentle: "chubby, ruddy, with light blond hair." Masha is a very smart and sensitive girl, which is noticeable in the episode of her refusal of Shvabrin's feelings (he subsequently speaks unflattering about her in a conversation with Peter Grinev).
The sincerity of Maria’s thoughts is proved by her courtship of the wounded Grinev. The girl put all her care and love so that he quickly got on his feet. Fortunately, she succeeded.
The death of parents at the hands of the enemy had a great impact on Masha. She was very shocked by this event, but she was still able to find the strength in herself to live on. She was warmed only by the thought of her dear man (Peter), who managed to stay alive.
Even after being captured by Shvabrin, Masha Mironova maintained her composure and her belief that justice would prevail. She refused to marry him, realizing that it could cost her her life. Her loyalty to her feelings in such a tense moment makes her believe in the enormous willpower of the girl. Pugachev comes to the rescue, whom Maria could not immediately confide in, since she considered him her enemy. However, she was released by him and transferred to Grinev's parents.
Masha’s mother calls her a coward, but this statement is not entirely true. In fact, the daughter of Vasilisa Egorovna is very brave and selfless, as evidenced by her act in relation to Peter, when he is taken under arrest. Mary goes to the empress in the hope that she will be able to help her rescue Grinev. Mironova could refuse or not even want to listen, but a desperate desire to save her beloved was written on the girl’s face, which struck the lady. The sincerity of Masha’s feelings influenced the empress’s decision. She helped the young couple reunite and live happily for many more years.
Maria boldly passed all the trials prepared for her fate. However, she was able to maintain her best qualities of character and spirit. The result of the tragic events that happened with her and her family was the happiness found with Peter Grinev, who found in her an angel who should be loved and protected.
