…and then there’s this chess tournament on Saturday. If I win, I’ll be the champion of our school. Who knows?

Oh, yeah. I wanted to ask you something. We have to write a report on technology for school. Could you tell me a few things about how you use technology in your life? You know, computers, mobiles, TV, that sort of things. Oh, and tell me something about the other members of your family, too, and how they use technology.

Anyway, I was talking to Sam the other day and he says that…

Anyway, I’m thinking of travelling around Russia next summer. Could you tell me what weather to expect? Should I take warm clothes with me?..

…I find it a bit difficult to understand English grammar. What about you? Do you do grammar exercises? Do you think that it’s necessary to remember all grammar rules?

Have you got any plans for the summer? I was thinking of going to a language school in the UK to improve my English. It would be a lot more fun if we went together. What do you think?

Hope to hear from you soon.

All the best,

Is there anything you particularly want to do while you’re here? I guess you’ll be busy at the language school during the day, but we can do something in the evenings and at weekends. Also, let me know if there are any kinds of food you don’t like…

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.

Александр Викторович Марков , Константин Дмитриевич Бальмонт
