1) м. ю. лермонтов удачно назвал свой роман. печорин  —  портрет не одного человека. образ печорина состоит из всех пороков, присущих поколению лермонтова.  автор хотел показать типичность такого героя и вместе с тем  его уникальность. в другое время его судьба сложилась бы абсолютно иначе.  видимо, такая эпоха не могла рождать других героев.  2) о времени самого лермонтова, т.е. о тридцатых годах девятнадцатого века. 3) 5.  "бэла", "максим максимыч", "тамань", "княжна мери", "фаталист". 4)эти повести объединены только образом главного героя, григория александровича печорина. автор романа показывает нам  печорина в различных  жизненных ситуациях, каждый раз открывая всё новые и новые грани его непростого характера.  5) бэла, вера,  княжна мери.
