Melodious, like the language of the people, stylized as a twenty-year work by Apollo Apollovich Korinsky, a renowned folklorist and poet, is seen again. This is the result of observations of the daily life of the people living on Russian land and the study of the works of other famous folklore collectors and authors of works on Russian literature, such as A.N. Afanasyev, P.V. Kireevsky, I.P. Sakharov, and others. "Folk Russia" covers the entire year of the life of a Russian peasant: all holidays, rituals, proverbs, sayings, and omens associated with various events. This work also describes not only the natural life cycles and the lives of saints associated with them in the popular consciousness, but also the life of the individual: from birth to entering the otherworld, from the first lullabies sung by the mother to funeral laments and prayers. The reader will also become acquainted with the rich treasury of myths and legends of Russian land: epic heroes and unseen monsters, and will learn how, according to our distant ancestors, the world came into being.
