Books in the ‘Rereading the Classics’ series give a modern analysis of the works that form part of school literature curricula. This is the first attempt to provide a detailed insight into the spiritual, moral and religious aspects of the art of 19th and 20th century Russian writers. The series is offered as the basis of modern knowledge about Russian literature, which is necessary for high school students to pass school-leaving examinations and to gain admission to any institution of higher learning. Konstantin Batiushkov is a poet without whom one cannot fully understand Pushkin. The modern school Literature curriculum on considers him a philosopher poet who combines the features of sentimentalism and romanticism. The author reveals the beneficial influence of Russian sentimentalism, whose role had been belittled for many years. He shows the development process of Batiushkov's romantic historical elegy. The book reveals the religious foundations of his philosophical poetry for the first time. It gives an uncensored description of his attitude to the French revolution and its ideologists, paying particular attention to analysis of the poet's works studied in school.

This is the first literary book about Batyushkov addressed to school, lyceum and gymnasium teachers, students and university entrants. It may also be interesting for philologists and everyone who loves Russian poetry.

This lecture course gives the characteristics of the basic concepts and institutions of constitutional (state) law, which is the basic branch of the Russian legal system, as well as their scientific interpretation and application practice.

The course is based on lectures delivered at the Institute of Public Administration and Social Studies of Moscow State University to students studying ‘State and municipal management’.

For students of non-law universities in Russia, students of extracurricular courses and institutes of advanced training and retraining of management staff.

This book is the first monographic study of the famous modern prose writer and publicist's works. The fact that Georgi Vladimov is a ‘living classic’ is not contested by anybody. But what book sparkled this belief? Some will say it was the ‘The General and His Army’ — the best Russian novel that received the Booker Prize in 1995. Others will remember ‘Three Minutes of Silence’ — the last book before the author was forced into silence and exile. Some will say that it was ‘Faithful Ruslan’, because it made the author leave the ranks of Soviet writers, and in the end the USSR as well. Many, however, felt his first novel, ‘The Great Ore,’ already conveyed the mastership of the writer.

For school, lyceums and gymnasium teachers, high school and college students, university entrants, philology specialists.
