Special Journal Offer

[Irina VanDusen]

Special Journal Offer from ACTR:

Russkij jazyk za rubezhom (Reinstated as a periodical publication as of 2000).

Mir russkogo slova (Established in 2000).


ACTR is pleased to announce the reinstatement of the long-standing international journal for teachers of Russian as a foreign language, Russkij jazyk za rubezom, as well as the creation of an entirely new journal for Russian as a Second Language by the recently established Russian Association of Teachers of Russian Language and Literature (ROPRIAL), Mir russkogo slova.  Both journals contain a broad range of work, primarily by Russian authors, in applied linguistics, stylistics, and actual materials for classroom-based or individualized learners of Russian language and literature at all levels.

The journals are published by the SPb-based educational publisher, "Zlatoust," on behalf of the two professional associations, MAPRIAL and ROPRIAL, respectively.  (Back copies of year 2000 journals are also available.)

As a courtesy to teachers, ACTR is pleased to provide complimentary copies of Mir russkogo slova (No. 4, 2000) to interested members of the Russian teaching profession in North America.  A current table of contents for each journal is  attached to this message for your convenience.

American teachers and specialists in the study and teaching of Russian are also encouraged to consider submitting article mss., sample teaching materials, and professional notices for publication in one or the other of these journals, which together provide the best available overview of current work, best practices, and  conference activities throughout the world pertaining to the teaching of Russian as a foreign or second language.  

To receive a free examination copy of Mir russkogo slova, simply e-mail your  name and mailing address to 
books at actr.org
 and ACTR will forward the issue to you by U.S. mail. (Receipt of a complimentary copy of the journal will not automatically enter your name on the subscription list or any other mailing list.)
