Hello! Please re-publish the wonderful book by I.I. Semenova-Sokovnya “Neboleyka” (Artist A.A. Guryev) I’ve been looking for it for several years now, but I can’t find it. The children grew up on it, now it’s the grandchildren’s turn. Our family's favorite book! One of the best!
Yesterday I accidentally discovered in the closet the “Primer Book” that I was given a long time ago in first grade. The illustrations show pioneers in red ties, portraits of Lenin... I immediately remembered the words from the song: “Where does the Motherland begin? From the picture in your primer”... Now the “Primer” has changed a lot, and in the bright “ABC”, which my son studied, there is not a hint of politics, and instead of young Leninists there are fairy-tale characters... But, nevertheless, it’s already almost 80 years, no matter what events take place - industrialization, war, perestroika - on September 1, for millions of first-graders in our country, the Motherland “begins” with a book published by the publishing house “Prosveshcheniye”. I decided to write about this publishing house. I really liked the lines given on the Prosveshcheniye website: “The textbook is the meaning and essence of our work, what unites more than five thousand employees of the Prosveshcheniye publishing house, what gives an incentive for development, the opportunity to realize the creative potential of talented and professional people.” . And I am sure that many of those who will read this review would like to say words of gratitude to the publishing house “Prosveshcheniye” for the fact that thanks to its textbooks, which “sowed the reasonable, the good, the eternal,” we have become educated and successful individuals. The history of the publishing house begins in 1930, when the publishing houses "Worker of Education" and the State Publishing House of the RSFSR, which published educational and pedagogical books, were merged into the Educational and Pedagogical Publishing House of the RSFSR (Uchpedgiz), which became the prototype of today's publishing house "Prosveshcheniye". The publishing house has had its current name (“Enlightenment”) since 1964, when Uchpedgiz, Proftekhizdat and the publishing house of the Academy of Pedagogical Sciences of the RSFSR were merged into a single publishing house. At one time, the “Enlightenment” and its predecessors played a huge role in the elimination of illiteracy, in the implementation of universal primary, and then eight-year education and universal compulsory education. Today, Prosveshchenie is the largest state educational and pedagogical publishing house in Russia. The activities of the publishing house are very diverse. Firstly, this is the publication of stable, trial and experimental textbooks on all traditional and new subjects. Some of them have computer support and audio support. In a range of disciplines for primary and high school educational kits have been created, including a textbook, reference and didactic materials, books for teachers and students. Secondly, the publishing house publishes textbooks and teaching aids for basic student training courses pedagogical universities and students pedagogical schools, as well as original manuals for lyceums and gymnasiums, schools and classes with in-depth study of subjects, combining materials from several disciplines, as well as manuals for differentiated learning taking into account the individual abilities of students. Educational literature published by Prosveshchenie is available in each of the 56 thousand schools in Russia. Despite the fact that now Prosveshchenie is not the only publishing house producing educational literature, it still remains the most popular due to its already established reputation, because as V. Putin noted in one of the publishing house’s congratulations on its next anniversary: “All these years The “Enlightenment” faithfully served the noble cause of public education. Several generations of Russians grew up reading textbooks published by one of the oldest and most authoritative domestic publishing centers.” Next year, the Prosveshchenie publishing house will celebrate another anniversary, and I would really like that, thanks to its work, the publishing house’s dream that we live in an Enlightened Russia will become a reality.
Eh, publishing house "Prosveshcheniye"! !! How will our children write correctly when there are such shameful mistakes in BOOKS, HANDBOOKS FOR STUDENTS OF GENERAL EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS?! We happened to read "Green Pages". We didn’t read everything - we became interested in beavers at first... I didn’t like the quality of the illustrations in the book - they were pale, the outlines split in two in some places. The product does not correspond to the price, and with such errors, I won’t give a rusty penny for it. "...the largest publishing house of educational and methodological literature in Russia. In 2005, the Prosveshchenie Publishing House celebrated its 75th anniversary. The publishing house's products include school textbooks, workbooks, teaching aids, maps, atlases, dictionaries, electronic educational..." Ugh!
