Dear SEELANGers:

As a service to the community, let me mention the availability of lectures
(in English) on various media (cd, dvd, vhs, cassette, cd, i-pod download)
on Russian literature:

    The Teaching Company, located near Washington, D.C. has
issued recordings of thirty six half-hour lectures on "Classics of
Russian Literature" by Professor Irwin Weil, from Northwestern
University. In a popular format, they cover elements of language and
culture from Kievan Rus', followed  by selected masterpieces from the
19th and 20th centuries, starting with Pushkin and continuing up to
Solzhenitsyn. There is also some material on the relation between
literature and  operatic music. These presentations have proved very
popular with thousands of Northwestern University students and many
adult education groups. Details are available at the internet address
<http://www.teach12.com> - lectures are available on dvd, videotape,
audiotape, cd, and i-pod download.

With best wishes to all,

Ben Rifkin
