SUMMARY:Get to grips with reflexive verbs level 2
DESCRIPTION:This 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. \nFor A2 students. This means RLC students in intermediate groups or who have completed Lesson 18 of the RLC textbooks. If you’re unsure of your level please email lucy@russiancentre.co.uk \nThis lesson will be online.

SUMMARY:Translation of Russian Poetry – A Beginner’s Journey with Claire Muraoka and Oksana Kobzarenko
DESCRIPTION:Many experienced translators of Russian poetry have written about the principles of translation as well as publishing their works. Although we will share some of their guidance\, this workshop makes no attempt to match their level of expertise. Instead\, we will share our journey as novices and show how translation has enhanced our enjoyment of poetry and increased our understanding of the Russian language. \nThe workshop will include a brief discussion of three published translations of a poem by Anna Akhmatova\, but the bulk of the session will focus on a discussion of our own translation of two poems about autumn – our favourite season in Russia – by Fyodor Tyutchev and Nikolay Zabolotsky. \nThe objectives of the workshop are shown below but we welcome questions and discussion\, so will be happy for other topics to be covered as time allows. Above all\, we hope to share the enormous enjoyment our translation experience has brought us. \nObjectives \n\nReview of translation principles – different approaches\nReview differences in three published translations of Anna Akhmatova “Song of Last Meeting”\nReview of two translations and choices we made\n\n“There is an early Autumn” by Fyodor Tyutchev\n“Autumn” by Nikolay Zabolotsky\n\n\nWhat we learned through translation experience\nBenefits of translation\nResources available
