Dear Sam,

Thanks for your letter! It was great to hear from you so soon!

You asked me to tell you about Moscow. Well, it is a very beautiful city especially in autumn when all trees are of different colours. The heart of Moscow is the Kremlin. It’s an ancient fortress with beautiful churches inside.

Moscow is a unique city, where history and modern life are brought together. On the one hand, you can enjoy traditional Russian festivals such as Maslenitsa. On the other hand, Moscow is a modern 24-hour city where you can visit different theatres, cinemas and exhibitions.

By the way, will you tell me about your school and school life? Do you have any clubs at school? Are you given much homework?

Please write back. I look forward to your reply.

Yours,

Boris

Task 24.

Flat 24

Dear Jill,

Thanks for your letter. I’m looking forward to your arrival!

It won’t be difficult for you to get to my place. Just take an express bus to “Rechnoy Vokzal” metro station. When you get off, turn right and go down Festivalnaya Street. My block of flats is about five minutes walk. I think it’s the easiest and the cheapest way.

As for the weather, it’s quite nice at the moment and the forecast is fine. I think it will be hot and sunny so take a swimming

costume. By the way, what sights would you like to visit? What would you prefer to do in the evenings? I can buy tickets to the Bolshoi Theatre. Would you like to go?

Anyway, I’m sure we’ll have a wonderful time together. Can’t wait to see you!

Lots of love,

Nastya

Dear Chemmy,

It was great to get your letter. Thanks a lot for offering your help.

As for my trip to the UK, I’m planning to study at a language school and take the FCE exam. I’m going to enter Oxford University so I have to speak fluent English. I hope you can advise me a good school for preparation. It would be great if it was not far from your place so that we could spend time together.

Oh, and another thing! I’d like to find a part-time job to pay for my expenses.

By the way, what TV shows do you enjoy? Are they funny or educational? Do you watch soaps? Actually, I do but not often. Just to relax.

I’d better go now as I’ve got loads of homework. Hope to hear from you soon!

Love,

Sonya

Поэзия как волшебство
Поэзия как волшебство

Трактат К. Д. Бальмонта «Поэзия как волшебство» (1915) – первая в русской литературе авторская поэтика: попытка описать поэтическое слово как конструирующее реальность, переопределив эстетику как науку о всеобщей чувствительности живого. Некоторые из положений трактата, такие как значение отдельных звуков, магические сюжеты в основе разных поэтических жанров, общечеловеческие истоки лиризма, нашли продолжение в других авторских поэтиках. Работа Бальмонта, отличающаяся торжественным и образным изложением, публикуется с подробнейшим комментарием. В приложении приводится работа К. Д. Бальмонта о музыкальных экспериментах Скрябина, развивающая основную мысль поэта о связи звука, поэзии и устройства мироздания.
