Starting conditions
The formation and development of the human personality occurs according to the same patterns at all times. The child begins to perceive the surrounding reality and fix certain images in his memory. Then from these images you can add a variety of pictures. This is how the poet and prose writer Ivan Yuryevich Obraztsov represents the difficult but necessary process of cognition. In his writings, he is often introspective. Tries to find reasons and explain the committed actions that can be assessed as good or bad.
