The Russian And French Laws On Language: A Cross‐Lighting, Patrick Seriot

Russian Language Journal

Comparison often allows a better understanding of a phenomenon than monographs. Cross‐lighting can reveal details which would have remained unnoticed under direct lighting.

Закон О Языке И Культура Речи, Елена Шмелева

Russian Language Journal

В разных странах люди по‐разному относятся к родному языку. В России в силу целого ряда причин сложилось представление о русском языке как о национальном достоянии и предмете гордости россиян. Каждый, кто учился в советской или российской школе, то есть по сути любой гражданин Российской Федерации, твердо знает, что русский язык – “великий и могучий” (И. Тургенев), что его надо беречь и хранить: “Но мы сохраним тебя, русская речь, великое русское слово!” (Анна Ахматова). Это массовое, всенародное убеждение, что русский язык играет особую роль в русской истории и культуре отражается в творчестве практически всех русских писателей и поэтов XIX – XXI …

Русский Язык Сегодня, Людмила Вербицкая

Russian Language Journal

2007 год – год русского языка в мире. Это событие заставляет нас внимательно проанализировать процессы, происходящие в русском языке сегодня, понимая, что при изучении любого языка необходимо исследовать и внутренние языковые закономерности и внешние по отношению к языку факторы.

Нужен Ли «Закон О Государственном Языке», Алексей Алексей

Russian Language Journal

Цели «Закона о государственном языке» определены в его преамбуле, в которой говорится, что он «направлен на обеспечение использования государственного языка Российской Федерации на всей территории Российской Федерации, обеспечение права граждан Российской Федерации на пользование государственным языком Российской Федерации, защиту и развитие языковой культуры». Однако представляется, что различные несуразности и нестыковки в тексте закона делают его неудобоприменимым и уж во всяком случае ни в коей мере не полезным для русской языковой культуры.

Russian As The National Language: An Overview Of Language Planning In The Russian Federation, Joan F. Chevalier

Russian Language Journal

In June of 2005 the federal legislation On the national language was signed into law by Vladimir Putin.1 The bill, revised and renamed several times after its initial introduction in the Duma in 2001, proved to be highly controversial, stimulating lively public debate. The law merits discussion as the first major piece of federation legislation focused on language policy and language planning to appear in the Russian Federation in several years. The law addresses both language‐status planning, which concerns the status and function of the Russian language, and language corpus planning, which attempts to affect changes in language forms and …

Федеральный Закон «О Языке»: Феномен Добрых Намерений, Анатолий Баранов

Russian Language Journal

Языковая политика и языковое строительство – два ведущих направления, по которым государство может влиять на функционирование языка в обществе. Языковая политика позволяет сохранять статус‐кво, существующий в языковом сообществе между литературным языком и диалектами, жаргонами, между несколькими государственными языками, если таковые допускаются и т.д. Языковая политика формируется в виде политических целей государства по отношению к функционированию языка в обществе и формулируется как законодательно, так и в программных документах политических субъектов (политических организаций, если таковые отражают направление государственной политики).

“The State Turning To Language”: Power And Identity In Russian Language Policy Today, Lara Ryazanova‐Clarke

Russian Language Journal

The first years of the twenty‐first century in Russia saw a considerable rise in the state’s regulation of language. In the words of one of the agents of this regulation, Natalia Liashchenko, a Consultant for the Committee for the Nationalities, “Определенный поворот к проблемам русского языка произошел и в органах государственной власти России.” The engagement of the state by way of regulations in the national discussion of the nature and quality of the Russian language demonstrates ‘the state power turning to language’.

We (1924), Yvonne Howell

Languages, Literatures, and Cultures Faculty Publications

One of the first and most important works of modern dystopian literature, this novel by Russian writer Evgeny Zamayatin was written in 1919-1920 and published in English in 1924. The original Russian version was not authorized for publication in the Soviet Union until 1988, when Gorbachev's policy of culture openness (glasnost) allowed readers access to twentieth-century Russian literature inimical to the communist project.

Zamayatin, Evgeny Ivanovich (1884-1937), Yvonne Howell

Languages, Literatures, and Cultures Faculty Publications

Zamayatin, Evgeny Ivanovich (1884-1967), Russian engineer, fiction writer, critic-essayist, and editor. Zamayatin was born in the provincial town of Lebedyan in central Russia. He joined the Bolshevik Party in opposition to the tsar's regime while still a student of naval engineering in the imperial capital of St. Petersburg. He was imprisoned and exiled from St. Petersburg, an experience that provided material for his first short novels and stories.

Combating The Banality Of Evil: Portrayals Of The Literary Female Villain In Gã¼Nter Grass's Danziger Trilogie And Novella, Im Krebsgang., Joseph Ephraim Baumgarten

Theses and Dissertations

In Günter Grass's Danzig Trilogy and novella, Im Krebsgang, an antagonistic female type makes a repeated appearance. She appears in the guise of Susi Kater and Luzie Rennwand in Die Blechtrommel, and as Tulla Pokriefke in the other works, Katz und Maus, Hundejahre, and Im Krebsgang. This antagonistic female type is not like other women in these works. A review of Le Deuxième Sexe by feminist Simone de Beauvoir reveals several crucial components contributing to woman's position in society. Most essentially, a woman's natural attributes and (dis)abilities and the conventions of society have enforced her historical submission to man. This …

Czech Fiction? Kafka And History In Czech Literature, Zachary Macholz

Independent Study Project (ISP) Collection

Much of Czech literature of the twentieth century leans heavily on the political and historical context of a given time period. This is not true of Franz Kafka, but his work is nonetheless reflective of many elements of Czech history after the turn of the century. This paper explores the role that Kafka’s The Trial and Czech political and social history plays in the formation of works of fiction and drama, and concludes that Czech authors Hašek, Hrabal, and Havel all deal explicitly with political and historical themes, and draw from Kafka, while the authors Škvorecky and Kundera are also …

Un Nuovo Dato Per La Cronologia Della Versione Cinematografica Della Nuova Colonia Di Luigi Pirandello, Stefano Giannini

Languages, Literatures, and Linguistics - All Scholarship

Luigi Pirandello (1867-1936) wrote numerous film-treatments inspired by his short-stories and plays that were not completed as films. Among the never completed films there is La Nuova Colonia. The history of the film-project La Nuova Colonia [The New Colony] is important for the further understanding of Pirandello’s poetics. Nestled in the plot of Pirandello’s novel Suo marito [Her Husband], La Nuova Colonia took on independent life in 1926 as the play of the same name that premiered in Rome in March 1928. The two dates indicated for the play are not the chronological limits for the La Nuova Colonia …

A Longitudinal Survey Of The Language Learning Careers Of Actr Advanced Students Of Russian: 1976-2000, Dan E. Davidson, Susan Goodrich Lehmann

Russian Language Journal

In 1976, the American Council of Teachers of Russian (ACTR) began sending American college students to Russia for advanced training in Russian language and literature. The original ACTR program was open to qualified students from any U. S. institution and represented one of the very few opportunities available to American students, graduate students, or faculty to pursue advanced language training in Russia, in this case, the newly established A. S. Pushkin Institute of the Russian Language in Moscow. Admission to the program was competitive, and, in practice, the ACTR program accepted for the most part graduate students and immediate-post BA …

Perspectives On Curriculum Construction At The Postsecondary Level: Contexts, Approaches, Principles, Heidi Byrnes

Russian Language Journal

A curriculum is an attempt, wrote Stenhouse three decades ago (1975, 4), to communicate the essential principles and features of an educational proposal in such a form that it is open to critical scrutiny and capable of effective translation into practice.

If one applies that notion of curriculum to the foreign language field in general, and to second- or foreign-language learning in U.S. colleges and universities in particular, one is immediately confronted with a dilemma: how can we speak of a foreign-language curriculum at the college level when a principled approach that is open to scrutiny and that builds on …
