Dostoevsky and Tolstoy have nothing to do in school? Very sensible idea, by the way – tvnz

Well, just a disaster: “the President of the Russian Academy of education (RAO), Vice-Chairman of the Society of Russian language and literature Lyudmila . believes that it is possible to exclude from the curriculum of Roman Lion thick “War and peace”.

There is also a Dostoevsky under the distribution were: “…And also some novels of Fyodor Dostoevsky, you need to remove”.

Well, it is clear that many from this wince.

the age-old culture, buckles and all that jazz.

I’m not opposed to braces, to be honest.

But here’s the thing.

Verbitskaya Condemn those who are her peers. Well, those who have read Dostoevsky, Fonvizin and “War and peace” is forced – by the Soviet school curriculum and, as I’ve got classical Soviet education.

To avoid speculation I must say: I think the Soviet education (as an idea, as a principle and a system) is absolutely correct. Yes, my life is not useful (like many of you) the corkscrew rule, the knowledge of CIS – and TRANS-actorie in chemistry and certainly the law Lomonosov-Lavoisier.

But!

whatever may be said about the horrors of the USSR, the Soviet school was given a powerful vision and a common understanding of things, global culture and history, the structure of the world.

This is priceless.

And now back to Dostoevsky and Tolstoy, if you don’t mind.

Close your eyes, sit silently for ten seconds.

Failed?

now tell me honestly: are you the school program were delighted to read “War and peace”? And “Crime and punishment”?

in our class (very advanced and freethinking, by the way) “War and peace” read separately. Girls about love, boys – about the war.

the French language characters do not read.

Well, you have just had. Themselves do not lie.

About Dostoevsky to say can’t, because I don’t know did my classmates it at all, even though it was supposed to.

But in the first year of University, I “War and peace avidly read for three nights in a hostel. And still re-read once in pair.

“Brothers the brothers Karamazov” and “Crime and punishment” in my second year I just plowed.

why am I all that?

And the fact that it is not necessary to flirt and yell that everyone dies because students don’t like Tolstoy and Dostoevsky. And at the same time Turgenev any, Fonvizin, I’m sorry, God.

It is normal that does not penetrate.

And how can they penetrate?

They’re 16 years old. What is their experience?

what they – you-we in these years remember.

are They remembering her childhood life throwing, able to appreciate the drama of Prince Andrei Bolkonsky? Or feel the sadness of Sonia Marmeladova? Or, at worst, with his life’s baggage to understand why Anna Karenina leaped under the locomotive?

For me, to begin to talk seriously about serious literature need somewhere at least in the third year of University.

There is, however, also a life experience is not much, but still students have a feeling of personal independent from their parents life, and after her status responsibility: we are not students, not small shelupon understand life!

in General, I think education is very important principle: to each vegetable the time.

the school should prepare children for the future perception of serious literature. But to pick up the books so that, on the one hand, they were understood and accepted, and on the other that these books helped them to look a bit for the child’s horizon. Just enough to not before come to an understanding, they have seized the breath from Tolstoy and the future of thought from Dostoevsky.

until there Kaverin, Dragoon, Zakhoder, Kipling, Korinets, Stevenson, Jules Verne, Lindgren, Jordan, Strugatsky. Jeez, how many of them understandable to children up to sixteen”!

I will Say kamalinee: even the fairy tale “Kolobok” can you teach humanism and complexities of life. This is the cause of the master: to give the student knowledge when he is ready.

Alas, so far none of the officials from the education we have about it seriously thought.

P. S. did you really delighted to read “Poor Lisa” Karamzin?
