SUMMARY:Russian Book Club: Sholokhov. And Quiet Flows the Don
DESCRIPTION:Our book club is for anyone who is interested in Russian literature but is daunted by the prospect of reading a complete work in the original! \nEach month we select a classic or contemporary Russian literary work to read in translation. While our discussions are held in English\, we incorporate excerpts and quotes in Russian into the sessions to provide an authentic experience. The club is hosted by an experienced teacher\, who will tailor the language element to the levels of the participants. So whether you’re an elementary or advanced learner of Russian\, our book club welcomes all levels of proficiency. \nThe action of “Quiet Flows the Don” unfolds against the backdrop of the turning points in Russian history: the First World War and the Civil War\, which changed not only the traditional way of life of the Don Cossacks\, but also the face of the entire country. The novel fully expresses one of the main themes of Sholokhov’s work: war as a fratricidal massacre that goes against human nature.This novel is one of the most significant works in Russian literature\, which earned the author the Nobel Prize and worldwide recognition. \n“The main character of his works is the truth itself… He sees and perceives life as a realistic drama in which humanity plays the main role. This is one of the reasons for his worldwide fame.” Martti Lärni \nThis seems to be the fullest translation Quiet flows the Don : Mikhail Aleksandrovich Sholokhov : Free Download\, Borrow\, and Streaming : Internet Archive \nQuiet Flows the Don : Mikhail Sholokhov\, Brian Murphy\, Robert Daglish: Amazon.co.uk: Books \nHere is an interesting review of the translations The Don Flows Again \nRussian film adaptation  Quiet Flows the Don (Тихий Дон) 1957 with English subtitles

SUMMARY:Reflexive Verbs A2
DESCRIPTION:Join Victoria for a fun and engaging deep dive into reflexive verbs. \nThis short course will take you deeper into the world of reflexive verbs. You’ll learn the conjugations of more complicated verbs (смеяться\, надеяться\, волноваться\, гордиться\, etc.)\, and find out more about the different types of reflexive verb. Through specially prepared dialogues you’ll practise the verbs встречать/встречаться\, жениться/пожениться\, являться\, случаться/случиться\, учиться/научиться. As part of the course you’ll have access to online exercises aimed at drilling the use of aspects (particularly the perfective future of verbs like вернуться\, остановиться) and you will be invited to submit a short piece of homework for detailed feedback. If you’re preparing for the TRKI exams\, this session covers all the reflexive verbs you need to know for TRKI A2. \nThis session is suitable for A2 students.

SUMMARY:Russian Book Club:  Pelevin.  Chapaev and Void
DESCRIPTION:Our book club is for anyone who is interested in Russian literature but is daunted by the prospect of reading a complete work in the original! \nEach month we select a classic or contemporary Russian literary work to read in translation. While our discussions are held in English\, we incorporate excerpts and quotes in Russian into the sessions to provide an authentic experience. The club is hosted by an experienced teacher\, who will tailor the language element to the levels of the participants. So whether you’re an elementary or advanced learner of Russian\, our book club welcomes all levels of proficiency. \nPelevin himself has described this as ‘the first novel in world literature which takes place in an absolute void’. In fact\, the action cuts deliriously between Moscow in 1990-s and 1919\, the era of the Civil War. At the same time\, the boundaries between those worlds are blurry and intertwined. The name of the book has been translated variously as ‘The Clay Machine-Gun’ in Britain and ‘Buddha’s Little Finger’ in the USA. \nBritish translation \nThe Clay Machine-Gun: Amazon.co.uk: Pelevin\, Victor: 9780571201266: Books \nAmerican translation \nBuddha’s Little Finger: Amazon.co.uk: Pelevin\, Victor\, Bromfield\, Andrew: 9780670891689: Books \n
