Children"s Calendar, or The Mysterious "Path": 12 Months in Verses by Silver Age Poets

The third release of the series "Book about Books" included the poetic works of many Russian poets of the Silver Age, gathered around the journal "Tropy": both famous (like K. Balmont or A. Blok) and widely known (like S. Gorodetsky and P. Solovyov) and those whose names are forgotten, are familiar only to specialists, but whose poems are read today with great interest and joy.
How do adults conduct a dialogue with children entering the world of rapidly increasing complexity? - This is one of the key pedagogical issues of our modernity. And the same question - as we see from the prepared book - stood as a creative task a century ago before the authors of the "path."
What to show and prompt children who will live in a society whose device we obviously cannot guess? How to imagine the "calendar of the future" in connection with the familiar calendar - and with the "eternal calendar"? What is more important to feed the spiritual development of children: images of creative imagination or practical visualization, attention to traditions or efforts of imagination? In many copyright intonations of the magazine "Tropy", the right notes are looking for such a conversation.
This book is primarily for family reading. But its content is important for both professional teachers and cultural researchers of various humanitarian areas.
The book uses the works of artists from the journal "Tropy" (1907-1912)
