Subject: [RUSSIAN-TEACHING] New issue of Chtenia features "Chekhov
Bilingual"
Thanks to a grant from Russkiy Mir Foundation (russkiymir.ru), over 1000
copies of "Chekhov Bilingual," a special English and Russian edition of the
literary quarterly Chtenia, are being distributed this month to over 230
Russian language learning programs in US high schools and colleges. The
publication, issued in connection with the 150th anniversary of Anton
Chekhov's birth, features some of the writer's most beloved works with
English translations and accented Russian on opposing pages.
Chtenia is a quarterly publication of Russian Information Services, a
20-year-old publishing company based in Montpelier, Vermont, and is the only
regularly published journal of Russian literature and fine readings in
English translation. The editor is Tamara Eidelman. Each issue of Chtenia
has a theme, and the readings in that issue revolve about that theme. This
special issue, themed "Chekhov Bilingual" was guest edited by Evgeny Dengub,
of Amherst College.
For more about Chtenia, and to see a table of contents of the issue, visit:

of $12; teachers wanting to purchase multiple copies for classroom use may
request a special discounted price.
