Book Synopsis Russian, Book 4 by : Mark R Pettus, PhD
Download or read book Russian, Book 4 written by Mark R Pettus, PhD and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2023-02-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume (Book 4) completes the series that began with "Russian Through Propaganda" (Books 1 and 2 in the series), and continued with the first volume of "Russian Through Poems and Paintings" (Book 3 in the series). This series was designed for serious students looking for exhaustive coverage of Russian grammar and immersion in Russian culture - with particular emphasis on learning to enjoy Russian literature in the original, inasmuch as Russian literature is, for many, the chief motivation for learning Russian in the first place. By the end of this volume (Book 4 in the series), students will have every tool at their disposal for enjoying the Russian classics. This book features daily poems by the likes of Pushkin, Lermontov, Tyutchev, and may others, together with extensive vocabulary notes. It concludes with longer reading selections: highlights from Ivan Goncharov's novel Oblomov, and a fascinating narrative poem by Nikolai Nekrasov entitled Red-Nosed Frost. Having covered most major grammar topics in the previous volumes (Books 1, 2, and 3), the present volume (Book 4) shifts its attention to Russian word formation, giving students an in-depth look at such topics as roots, prefixation, verb and adjective creation, foreign borrowings, noun suffixes, stress patterns, and more. In the process, we'll hone our ability to analyze a variety of Russian words - both to make sense of new words we encounter, and to consider the literal meaning of Russian words, not just their standard English translation. We'll group words into families - looking first at "verb families" (prefixed forms of a given base aspectual pair), and later at broader word families built from a common root (nouns, verbs, adjectives, etc.). We'll also look in depth at the suffixes Russian uses to adopt foreign vocabulary, thus greatly enhancing our ability to make sense of the countless borrowed words encountered in contemporary Russian. As in Book 3, examples of the grammar at hand are provided by Russian poems and paintings. Books 3 and 4 both focus on the Imperial era; but, in terms of poetry selections, whereas Book 3 focused heavily on "Golden Age" poets like Pushkin and Lermontov, Book 4 now pushes forward into the Silver Age and even the Soviet era, with more selections from poets like Mayakovsky, Tsvetaeva, Mandelshtam, Pasternak, and others. By the end of Book 4, students will have been exposed to most of the major names in Russian poetry, and to some of their most well-known poems. Remaining grammar topics include verbs of position, a review of imperfective derivation, and a survey of noun and number declension that includes more unusual forms we have yet to encounter. Declension of numbers is covered in full, along with special noun types. Some of these forms - the declined numbers in particular - may not be encountered on a daily basis, but it is very important to be aware of them, and, for students intent on mastering Russian, to learn them. With these units, the series completes its near-exhaustive coverage of both verb conjugation and noun and adjective declension. The book concludes with a chapter presenting useful vocabulary for talking about life (birth, death, and everything in between - love and marriage, friendship, travel, activities, culture, and more), and, finally, a chapter featuring two outstanding pieces of Russian literature: highlights from Goncharov's novel Oblomov (from a chapter known as "Oblomov's Dream"), and the entirety of Nikolai Nekrasov's long narrative poem "Red-Nosed Frost," which depicts the difficult life of a young peasant woman after her husband's death, with a stunning ending - magical, beautiful, yet deeply disturbing - that is not to be missed! About the author: Mark Pettus is a lecturer in Slavic Languages and Literatures at Princeton University, where he teaches Russian, Czech, Polish, Church Slavonic, and more.

Book Synopsis The Penguin Book of Russian Poetry by : Robert Chandler
Download or read book The Penguin Book of Russian Poetry written by Robert Chandler and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2015-02-26 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An enchanting collection of the very best of Russian poetry, edited by acclaimed translator Robert Chandler together with poets Boris Dralyuk and Irina Mashinski. In the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, poetry's pre-eminence in Russia was unchallenged, with Pushkin and his contemporaries ushering in the 'Golden Age' of Russian literature. Prose briefly gained the high ground in the second half of the nineteenth century, but poetry again became dominant in the 'Silver Age' (the early twentieth century), when belief in reason and progress yielded once more to a more magical view of the world. During the Soviet era, poetry became a dangerous, subversive activity; nevertheless, poets such as Osip Mandelstam and Anna Akhmatova continued to defy the censors. This anthology traces Russian poetry from its Golden Age to the modern era, including work by several great poets - Georgy Ivanov and Varlam Shalamov among them - in captivating modern translations by Robert Chandler and others. The volume also includes a general introduction, chronology and individual introductions to each poet. Robert Chandler is an acclaimed poet and translator. His many translations from Russian include works by Aleksandr Pushkin, Nikolay Leskov, Vasily Grossman and Andrey Platonov, while his anthologies of Russian Short Stories from Pushkin to Buida and Russian Magic Tales are both published in Penguin Classics. Irina Mashinski is a bilingual poet and co-founder of the StoSvet literary project. Her most recent collection is 2013's Ophelia i masterok [Ophelia and the Trowel]. Boris Dralyuk is a Lecturer in Russian at the University of St Andrews and translator of many books from Russian, including, most recently, Isaac Babel's Red Cavalry (2014).

Book Synopsis Russian, Book 1: Russian Through Propaganda by : Mark Pettus
Download or read book Russian, Book 1: Russian Through Propaganda written by Mark Pettus and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2017-12-06 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Russian, Book 1: Russian Through Propaganda is the first volume in a new series of Russian textbooks with a rigorous but rewarding approach to the language. It assumes no prior knowledge of Russian, and is intended for ambitious beginners, or more advanced students seeking a highly structured review of the language. It assumes that its readers are interested in long-term mastery of the language, within the rich historical, cultural, and literary contexts that often draw students to Russian in the first place. It therefore takes the time to explain challenging grammar topics in depth, striving to provide the full picture as clearly as possible. It is richly illustrated with Soviet-era propaganda posters, whose slogans serve as examples of each lesson's grammar. It is structured as a series of 50 daily lessons, which build upon one another and give a clear sense of progress. It is the equivalent of a semester of intensive college-level study of Russian. Free video lessons and a number of Russian-culture resources are available online at www.russianthroughpropaganda.com.
Book Synopsis Words for War by : Oksana Maksymchuk
Download or read book Words for War written by Oksana Maksymchuk and published by Academic Studies PRess. This book was released on 2022-06-14 with total page 511 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The armed conflict in the east of Ukraine brought about an emergence of a distinctive trend in contemporary Ukrainian poetry: the poetry of war. Directly and indirectly, the poems collected in this volume engage with the events and experiences of war, reflecting on the themes of alienation, loss, dislocation, and disability; as well as justice, heroism, courage, resilience, generosity, and forgiveness. In addressing these themes, the poems also raise questions about art, politics, citizenship, and moral responsibility. The anthology brings together some of the most compelling poetic voices from different regions of Ukraine. Young and old, female and male, somber and ironic, tragic and playful, filled with extraordinary terror and ordinary human delights, the voices recreate the human sounds of war in its tragic complexity.
