The relevance of this scientific issue is explained by the fact that the peculiarities of representing the character in modern cinema partly reflect the state of society itself, its social problems, phobias and neuroses. Cinematography, like no other type of contemporary art, has broad opportunities to embody almost any character in three-dimensional reality, which imposes a certain social responsibility for the results of the main characters’ portrayal. The appeal to the archetypal images of world literature implies not only the openness of improvisation, but also the preservation of the character’s social function. The article analyzes the representation of one of such archetypal images of world significance—Sherlock Holmes.

The purposes of this article are: studying and systematizing publications on general cultural and linguistic-cultural adaptation; describing the deliverables of linguistic-cultural adaptation of non-philology students and French expats; identifying the theoretical and practical bases for the elimination of the linguistic culture shock. Methods/Statistical Analysis: The descriptive, analytical and pedagogical observation method, i.e. an analysis of the work and discussions with students, have been used. In 2012-2016, firstyear students (120) of the faculties of economics and law taught at the RUDN and French expats (60) were interviewed. Findings: Using the empirical method, the authors have demonstrated that the improvement of the general proficiency in Russian as a foreign language takes on crucial importance in overcoming the subsequent linguistic shock when transferring from p...

The artistic themes characteristic of that period are as follows: denial of the household, idealization and ideologization of "householdness” due to historical realities and ascetic revolutionary ideology. Particular attention is given to the antitheses of “household” and existence and related metaphors and images such as “satiety”, “material and spiritual property”, “family”, “house”, etc.

Abstract. This review of the book by a well-known specialist in Russian literature of the 1920s–1930s, N.M. Malygina, “Andrey Platonov and Literary Moscow:
A.K. Voronsky, A.M. Gorky, B.A. Pilniak, B.L. Pasternak, Artem Vesely, S.F. Budantsev, V.S. Grossman” sets the methodological principles of analysis of literary biographies of Platonov, considered in the context of the literary process of the 1920–1940s.
It is established that the study was carried out by combining contextual, motivational,
“genetic” methods of analysis of the literary process of the 1920–1940s and the works
of Soviet writers of the 1920–1940s, with whose works Platonov’s texts are compared.
The review raises the problem of studying the Moscow literary environment and creative connections of A. Platonov. The author reveals the novelty of Malygina’s research,
which consists in the fact that the writer’s Moscow connections were revealed long
before the beginning of the Moscow period of his life and work. The author reveals
the originality of the peer-reviewed monograph, due to the combination of research in
the chronological order of the key events of the literary process of the 1920–1940s, in
which Platonov took part, with a deep analysis of the poetics of the works by A. Voronsky, M. Gorky, B. Pilniak, B. Pasternak, Artem Vesely, S. Budantsev, V. Grossman.
Establishing the nature of his participation in the events of the literary life of the capital,
in each chapter of the monograph, the researcher analyzes the poetics of his works in the
context of the Soviet literature of the 1920s and 1940s. In the monograph, in the process
of analyzing the events of Moscow literary life, Platonov’s creative ties with contemporary writers are revealed. In the book by N.M. Malygina, the study of Platonov’s Moscow literary environment is not limited to revealing Platonov’s personal contacts and
creative connections with his contemporaries. The review raises the problem of the need
to systematize the facts of literary life, to identify their cause-and-effect relationships in
the understanding of contexts and the process of creativity. It is shown that the special
value of the study is to refer to archival materials presented for the first time. These
are the documents supplementing data on Voronsky’s biography and creative heritage,
materials from A.M. Gorky’s archive, materials from S.F. Budantsev’s archive, texts of
V.S. Grossman’s letters verified with autographs stored in RSALA

from its perception and comprehension to its embodiment in works of art. The factors that influenced this
process are analyzed, the general provisions of the concept are formulated about the driving forces of the
revolution, about the new hero and his qualities, about the society and the person of the future. Points of
view on these questions of various literary groups VAPP, LEF, the writers of Revolution Community "Pereval"
are presented.
BOOK OF POEMS AS A GENRE IN THE WORKS OF “PEREVAL” POETS (P. DRUZHININ, N. ZARUDIN, D. SEMENOVSKY), 2019

studied, although it was a special phenomenon in the Russian literature of the 1920s-1930s. The contemporaries, including one of the founders of “Pereval” A. Voronsky, underestimated the lyrics of these poets,
giving preference to prose. But their poetry epitomizes one of the important program theses of “Pereval” –
sincerity. This makes their poetry an artistic document of the epoch.
The article studies the books of poems by P. Druzhinin, N. Zarudin and D. Semenovsky by such parameters as title, composition, motives, and meta-plot. The analysis has revealed the characteristic features of cyclization, the common
aesthetics and poetics of the literary group and the individual authored specificity. In each case, the authors of the article emphasize
the poet’s special relationship with the time, with the literary tradition and with the poetry of the predecessors and contemporaries:
F. Tyutchev, A. Fet, A. Tolstoy, A. Blok, S. Yesenin, M. Svetlov, E. Bagritsky, etc. The lyrics of “Pereval” recreate the dialectics of the formation of a new picture of the world in which lyrical emotions drown out the “noise of time”. P. Druzhinin and N. Zarudin, participants of
the Civil War, reflect those events in different ways. For the new peasant poet P. Druzhinin war is a dark and cruel time that disrupts the
natural course of life. N. Zarudin, a poet inclined towards a pessimistic worldview, on the contrary, presents the events of the Civil War
in bright, romantic tones. The optimistic poetry of D. Semenovsky is timeless, abstract, and based on general literary imagery.

The books of poems by the “Pereval” poets are lyrical, i.e. they basically do not reflect the large-scale changes in socialist construction in the state as the official literary criticism of the 1920s required from the poets. For these poets, lyricism remains to be the main
means of expressing reality. It was lyrics that embodied the dramatic experiences of the time aestheticizing the main themes of the
then modernity: the natural cycles of peasant labor (the book by P. Druzhinin The Straw Noise), the memories of the battles and victims
of the civil war and its romanticization (the book by N. Zarudin Across the Field of Youth), the joy of life and new religiosity (the book by
D. Semyonovsky Under the Blue Cover).

The language of the revolutionary era of 1917 in Russia was one of the main means of forming new thinking. By activating its influencing function, the regime spread its ideology to all sectors of public and cultural life. It was also one of the ways to oust the old socio-cultural elite, which did not accept the new language norm. For the new establishment, the so-called "Soviet bird language" was the only possible way of communication and served as a symbolic indicator of loyalty. The new language was created from the existing language material, preserving the speech patterns characteristic of the language of revolutionaries even before the revolutionary years. At the same time, the language was losing its inherent functions. The activities of proletarian literary groups were a significant driving force in the social life of Russia in the 1920s-1930s. In their program documents, typical tendencies and processes that took place in the language of the Soviet era were most clearly manifested. The purpose of the article is to study the stylistic features of literary documents, to determine the factors that influenced the formation of the new society's thinking after the 1917 revolution. The study was conducted on the basis of program documents (manifestos, declarations, introductory articles to anthologies and collections), titles of journals, and other literary groups: LEF (Left Front of the Arts), RAPP (Russian Association of Proletarian Writers), "Pereval," Proletkult, and "Kuznitsa." Keywords: language of the post-revolutionary era, literary groups of the 1920s-1930s, "Pereval" Union, style of program documents, new "political writing" Аннотация. В статье проводится сравнительный анализ языка и стиля программных до-кументов литературных групп 1920-х-1930-х годов. Отмечается, что язык революционной эпохи 1917 года в России являлся одним из главных средств формирования нового мышления. Активизируя его воздействующую функцию, власть распространяла идеологию на все сферы общественной и культурной жизни. Это было также одним из способов вытеснения старой социально-культурной элиты, не принявшей новую языковую норму. Для новой элиты «со-ветский птичий язык» был единственно возможным и служил символическим индикатором лояльности. Новый язык создавался из существовавшего языкового материала, сохраняя рече-вые особенности, присущие языку революционеров еще до революции. Язык при этом терял свойственные ему функции. Деятельность пролетарских литературных группировок была зна-чимой движущей силой общественной жизни России 1920-х-1930-х гг. В их программных до-кументах наиболее ярко проявились типичные тенденции и процессы, происходившие в языке советской эпохи.

Abstract. This review of the book by a well-known specialist in Russian literature of the 1920s–1930s, N.M. Malygina, “Andrey Platonov and Literary Moscow:
A.K. Voronsky, A.M. Gorky, B.A. Pilniak, B.L. Pasternak, Artem Vesely, S.F. Budantsev, V.S. Grossman” sets the methodological principles of analysis of literary biographies of Platonov, considered in the context of the literary process of the 1920–1940s.
It is established that the study was carried out by combining contextual, motivational,
“genetic” methods of analysis of the literary process of the 1920–1940s and the works
of Soviet writers of the 1920–1940s, with whose works Platonov’s texts are compared.
The review raises the problem of studying the Moscow literary environment and creative connections of A. Platonov. The author reveals the novelty of Malygina’s research,
which consists in the fact that the writer’s Moscow connections were revealed long
before the beginning of the Moscow period of his life and work. The author reveals
the originality of the peer-reviewed monograph, due to the combination of research in
the chronological order of the key events of the literary process of the 1920–1940s, in
which Platonov took part, with a deep analysis of the poetics of the works by A. Voronsky, M. Gorky, B. Pilniak, B. Pasternak, Artem Vesely, S. Budantsev, V. Grossman.
Establishing the nature of his participation in the events of the literary life of the capital,
in each chapter of the monograph, the researcher analyzes the poetics of his works in the
context of the Soviet literature of the 1920s and 1940s. In the monograph, in the process
of analyzing the events of Moscow literary life, Platonov’s creative ties with contemporary writers are revealed. In the book by N.M. Malygina, the study of Platonov’s Moscow literary environment is not limited to revealing Platonov’s personal contacts and
creative connections with his contemporaries. The review raises the problem of the need
to systematize the facts of literary life, to identify their cause-and-effect relationships in
the understanding of contexts and the process of creativity. It is shown that the special
value of the study is to refer to archival materials presented for the first time. These
are the documents supplementing data on Voronsky’s biography and creative heritage,
materials from A.M. Gorky’s archive, materials from S.F. Budantsev’s archive, texts of
V.S. Grossman’s letters verified with autographs stored in RSALA
from its perception and comprehension to its embodiment in works of art. The factors that influenced this
process are analyzed, the general provisions of the concept are formulated about the driving forces of the
revolution, about the new hero and his qualities, about the society and the person of the future. Points of
view on these questions of various literary groups VAPP, LEF, the writers of Revolution Community "Pereval"
are presented.
studied, although it was a special phenomenon in the Russian literature of the 1920s-1930s. The contemporaries, including one of the founders of “Pereval” A. Voronsky, underestimated the lyrics of these poets,
giving preference to prose. But their poetry epitomizes one of the important program theses of “Pereval” –
sincerity. This makes their poetry an artistic document of the epoch.
The article studies the books of poems by P. Druzhinin, N. Zarudin and D. Semenovsky by such parameters as title, composition, motives, and meta-plot. The analysis has revealed the characteristic features of cyclization, the common
aesthetics and poetics of the literary group and the individual authored specificity. In each case, the authors of the article emphasize
the poet’s special relationship with the time, with the literary tradition and with the poetry of the predecessors and contemporaries:
F. Tyutchev, A. Fet, A. Tolstoy, A. Blok, S. Yesenin, M. Svetlov, E. Bagritsky, etc. The lyrics of “Pereval” recreate the dialectics of the formation of a new picture of the world in which lyrical emotions drown out the “noise of time”. P. Druzhinin and N. Zarudin, participants of
the Civil War, reflect those events in different ways. For the new peasant poet P. Druzhinin war is a dark and cruel time that disrupts the
natural course of life. N. Zarudin, a poet inclined towards a pessimistic worldview, on the contrary, presents the events of the Civil War
in bright, romantic tones. The optimistic poetry of D. Semenovsky is timeless, abstract, and based on general literary imagery.

The books of poems by the “Pereval” poets are lyrical, i.e. they basically do not reflect the large-scale changes in socialist construction in the state as the official literary criticism of the 1920s required from the poets. For these poets, lyricism remains to be the main
means of expressing reality. It was lyrics that embodied the dramatic experiences of the time aestheticizing the main themes of the
then modernity: the natural cycles of peasant labor (the book by P. Druzhinin The Straw Noise), the memories of the battles and victims
of the civil war and its romanticization (the book by N. Zarudin Across the Field of Youth), the joy of life and new religiosity (the book by
D. Semyonovsky Under the Blue Cover).
