2023-11-09T17:22:21+01:00November 9th, 2023|Categories: Library, literary blog, Literary Blogs, Poushkin, Russian language|

"Hello, shall we work together? Apart from the stories mentioned in your letter, Ivan Petrovich left many manuscripts, some of which are in my possession, while others have been used by his housekeeper for various domestic purposes. Thus, last winter, all the windows of her wing were covered with the first part of the novel that he did not finish. The aforementioned stories were, it seems, his first attempt. They are, as Ivan Petrovich said, mostly true and were heard from different individuals. However, the names in them are almost all fictitious, created by himself, and the names of villages [...]

2023-10-17T16:42:39+02:00October 17th, 2023|Categories: Kids Club, Russian House News|

On October 7th, a theatrical masterclass took place in our children's club. It was conducted by the actress and director Olga Markina. This event had been eagerly awaited, which is why there was quite a crowd. Children started arriving well before the event began, which was a delight to see. Before the start of the masterclass, it had become a tradition for the little visitors of the Russian House to pick up chalk. Their first interaction with each other happened through drawings on the pavement. At the appointed time, Olga invited all the kids into the hall. There was [...]

I’ve long been tortured by not knowing where you are and how you are. Now, there’s no need to break this little thread that has stretched between us.

2023-10-17T16:45:35+02:00October 10th, 2023|Categories: Russian House News|

On September 20th of this year, a solo performance by Elena Zakharova titled "The Female Destiny in the Works of the Classics" took place on the stage of the Russian House.

During the poem "Mama," the actress's voice broke, and tears welled up in her eyes, not only for [...]

Today, hardly anyone remains indifferent to artificial intelligence. "The creative abilities of neural networks have tremendous potential. They are by no means competing with humans; on the contrary, they open up new possibilities for creativity and artistry. For designers, generative models have already become an essential tool for increasing efficiency and breaking free from routine," says our guest Denis Dimitrov, the Executive Director of Data Research at Sberbank's AI Future Technologies Department.

White makes a draw

2023-09-18T12:46:49+02:00September 18th, 2023|Categories: Chess, Kids Club|

Dear Friends! On September 2nd, our Children's Club hosted a simultaneous chess session. The youngest participant was seven years old, while the oldest was seventeen. And it must be said that nobody was bored. The little rascals, while waiting for the older kids to finish their games, were drawing with chalk on the tiles. This has become a nice tradition: the chalk appears as soon as the children arrive. By the way, the adults, as it turned out, were not averse to reliving their childhood. You won't believe it, but the moms even remembered how to play hopscotch. But [...]

Wild Dingo Dog or Tale of First Love

2023-09-14T16:26:56+02:00September 14th, 2023|Categories: Library, literary blog, Literary Blogs|

Who among the older generation does not remember the prudent and faithful Filka, the contemplative girl Tanya, and the newcomer boy Kolya? "Wild Dingo Dog, or Tale of First Love" was written at the request of the publisher. The author was supposed to depict school life. Soviet literature always leaned towards finding positive heroes. In the work, we practically do not encounter negative characters. Even the envious girl Zhenya becomes the main character's friend by the end of the novel. And the geography teacher, who portrayed Tanya in a negative light, is only mentioned in passing. The author himself, Fraerman, [...]

Детский клуб: Дракон дождя и Лилия (сказка-игра) М. Файтцев

2023-08-22T11:15:28+02:00August 22nd, 2023|Categories: Russian House News|

С разрешения правообладателя У самого берега моря стояла старая покосившаяся избушка. Жила в этой избушке семья: отец-рыбак, мать и пять дочерей. Жили бедно. Отец рыбу ловил, да мало её попадало, мать её на рынке продавала. Старшая сестра сети для отца плела, вторая – еду варила, третья – бельё стирала, четвёртая – огородом занималась, а младшая, Лилия, была не от мира сего. Ничего ей поручить нельзя было.  Лето выдалось засушливое. Реки пересохли, колодцы обмелели. А морская вода – солёная. Чтобы пресную воду из неё получить, долго выпаривать надо.  Недалеко от домика рыбака, за холмом, озеро было с пресной водой. Единственное, которое [...]

Literary Blogs «Asya: love has no tomorrow»

2023-07-06T16:05:15+02:00July 6th, 2023|Categories: Library, literary blog, Literary Blogs, Russian language|

Before moving on to the blog topic, I would like to express my gratitude to Vera Bazilevskaya and Anna Burkovskaya for providing the photographs. So, the June literary salon was dedicated to Ivan Sergeyevich Turgenev's novella "Asya." This story took place in 1857. After a year of inactivity, I.S. Turgenev took up the pen again. The reason was a scene accidentally observed in the German town of Zinitzke. The writer's attention was drawn to two women: an old woman sitting on the ground floor of a small house, and a girl peering out of the window on the second floor. [...]

Kids’ Club: “Magic Carpet”

2023-06-06T14:34:06+02:00June 6th, 2023|Categories: Kids Club, Russian House News|

Recently, in the Children's Club, a workshop on making appliques using the simple weaving technique took place. At first glance, it seems quite easy, especially since the templates were prepared in advance. But as it turned out, it's not that easy to weave thin paper strips evenly. The applique requires perseverance, creativity, and imagination from its creator. But let's go step by step. First, we create a base to which we will attach our carpet or carpets. That's right. One applique can have multiple carpets, just like in this picture with sunflowers. Next, you create the front side of [...]

You managed to achieve rapid stabilization. This promises long life without any shock. Tell me, how do you see its future? What might its zest, or uniqueness, be, so to speak?” Kit smiled, flattered by the words of her Professor. “You are right, Professor, it is stable, that’s true, but because of this it is not very lively. Not much happens there. At the moment I do not see any zest, and [...]

What words cannot express, Let the sounds tell without words.

2023-06-26T14:43:54+02:00June 1st, 2023|Categories: Kids Club|

"Unbelievable!" "It's impossible to believe this!" "To think that a child could play like that!" "And what will happen when they grow up!" These were the words spoken by the audience as they exited the concert hall. Who could have enthralled them to such an extent? You won't believe it, but it was children. Yes, indeed, two thirteen-year-old boys captivated classical music enthusiasts with their performance, leaving an indelible impression. Before the concert began, the audience could not even imagine that they would witness such magnificent playing. Who are these young prodigies? Alexander Skrobovskiy and Antoni Jarosz. Two [...]
