В результате анализа целого ряда исследований было выяснено, что наряду с раз- витием таких видов речевой деятельности, как говорение и аудирование, необходимо развитие навыка чтения в процессе обучения иностранным языкам. Актуальность и социальная значимость курса заключается в том, что чтение спо- собствует формированию языковой компетенции. Знакомство студентов с произведе- ниями современных британских писателей, чтение этих произведений является своего рода погружением в языковую среду, близкую к среде носителей языка. Основной задачей курса является формирование культурно-коммуникативных компетенций студентов на материале оригинального художественного произведения автора страны изучаемого языка, а также обучение основным дискурсивным способам реализации коммуникативных целей высказывания и основным способам выражения преемственности между композиционными элементами текста. Результатом работы с пособием является формирование способности выражать свои мысли, используя разно- образные лингвистические средства. Издание ставит перед собой цель помочь изучающим иностранный язык освоить два вида чтения: интенсивное и экстенсивное, а также использовать этот вид речевой деятельности как инструмент для достижения положительной динамики изучения ино- странного языка. Таким образом, задачей курса является формирование навыков интен- сивного и экстенсивного чтения, умения самостоятельно работать с художественным текстом, извлекать необходимую информацию в объеме, необходимом для решения конкретных речевых задач. Структура учебного курса представляет собой два раздела, в первом уделяется внимание интенсивному чтению. Данный раздел состоит из пяти глав, в каждой из ко- 4 торых две части. Одна структурная часть включает в себя разработку заданий к вы- бранному курсом художественному произведению современного британского писателя. В среднем объем текста составляет 250–300 страниц. Увеличение уровня сложности произведений возрастает с переходом от одной главы к другой, что соответствует ос- новным методическим рекомендациям. Все практические задания, представленные в разделах, направлены на формирование навыка внимательного (углубленного) прочте- ния произведения, развитие умения находить нужную информацию и расширение сло- варного запаса. Также представлены дополнительные задания для реализации творче- ского подхода к прочтению произведения. Во втором разделе даются задания для экс- тенсивного чтения. Всего в разделе три главы, в каждой из которых разработки к двум произведениям, используемым преподавателем в первом и втором семестре на III–V курсах. Эти произведения студенты читают самостоятельно, выполняют практи- ческие задания, и в конце семестра проводится одно-два занятия для обсуждения про- читанной книги и проверки выполненных заданий. В данном разделе акцент делается на формирование навыков углубленного прочтения (вопросы по содержанию, поиск информации), на совершенствование умения выражать свое мнение по теме (вопросы для размышления, анализа и комментирования) и расширение словарного запаса. Важ- ной частью являются задания творческого характера (написание эссе, характеристики персонажей) и задания на аудирование (прослушивание интервью с авторами прочи- танных произведений, просмотр фильмов, связанных с книгами). 5 РАЗДЕЛ I ГЛАВА 1 BOOKS RECOMMENDED FOR FIRST-YEAR STUDENTS MARK HADDON THE CURIOUS INCIDENT OF THE DOG IN THE NIGHT-TIME Mark Haddon is a recognized name in the contemporary English literature. His talent not only involves novel writing but extends to poetry writing, illustration and abstract paint- ing. His major contribution to literature includes an adult novel, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time. Born on September 26, 1962, in Northampton, England, Mark Haddon was raised by an architect. He received his early education from Uppingham School and then went on to major in English Literature at the Merton College, Oxford. Upon completion of his studies, he be- came a caretaker for disabled people in Scotland. His experience of taking care of patients with multiple sclerosis and autism would later influence his literary writing. In addition to that, he did a variety of jobs, including at a theater box office, mailing office and as a cartoon- ist and illustrator. His works were illustrated in numerous periodicals and in a cartoon strip, Men — User’s Guide. Subsequently, Haddon relocated to Boston, Massachusetts and stayed there with his wife. A year later they moved back to England where he took up his passion for abstract painting and sold his art. Afterwards, he

Ruth Rendell and Barbara Vine – Family Matters Fiona Peters Bath Spa University, UK [email protected] This article traces themes and preoccupations that work across Ruth Rendell’s work, writing both as Rendell and also as Barbara Vine. It investigates the ways in which the use of a pseudonym allows her to delve deeper into areas that she also explores as Rendell – the dysfunctional family and heredity, both in relation to physical disease and the fruitless search for origins, the latter discussed by her through the lens of Freudian psychoanalysis. Ruth Rendell was one of the most prolific British crime fiction writers of the twentieth century, continuing to produce work right up until her death in May 2015, her final posthumous novel Dark Corners being published in October of that year.

  • Ruth Rendell/Barbara Vine: Racial Otherness and Conservative Englishness
    SBORNJK PRACI FILOZOFICKE FAKULTY BRNENSKE UNIVERZITY STUDIA MINORA FACULTATIS PHILOSOPHICAE UNIVERSITAT1S BRUNENSIS S 9,2003 — BRNO STUDIES IN ENGLISH 29 LIDIA KYZLINKOVA RUTH RENDELL/BARBARA VINE: RACIAL OTHERNESS AND CONSERVATIVE ENGLISHNESS Motto: 'What a pity it is, from the social historian's point of view, that there was no Ronald Knox in the monastery of the Venerable Bede; no Dorothy L. Sayers looking over Holinshed's shoulder while he white­ washed theTudors...' (Watson 1979: 2) It has generally been accepted that British mystery writers tend to accumulate a surprising amount of accurate information about everyday life since plausibil­ ity as much as fantasy is required to make their popular and prevailingly domes­ tic texts effectively thrilling and credible at the same time. In their work one therefore encounters multiple discourses concerning the meanings and represen­ tations gathered around the dominant issues of Englishness, race and class, in relation to the social reality of a specific public. The attractiveness of the narra­ tives may also lie in the fact that they raise significant and urgent questions about contemporary cultural identities and values against the background of a fictitious, romantic, and frequently gruesome world. Although it is a myth that classic detective fiction, with its stress on the puzzle value entirely avoids social issues, it is no fallacy that some of today's crime fiction which stems from it makes the social situation the very core of the plot. Ruth Rendell is viewed as one of the main representatives of the British psy­ chological crime novel today, however, apart from her interest in the individual characters' psyches she purposefully covers a number of fundamental social phenomena existing in contemporary Britain.

See the list. Wexford's murder suspect is about to slip away. For Wexford and his team a race against time begins and the DCI has to pull all stops to solve a murder case that left him with only one single clue - a woman's hand print. Relying on the help of his nephew and a trusted colleague, Wexford finally proves that his hunch was right. Will he and his team be able to stop a murderer and his accomplice before it's too late? But Reg Wexford doesn't realize that Shake Hands For Ever: (A Wexford Case) is in for yet another surprise. Written by Jasper P. Reg Wexford may not be the most dynamic detective of all, but when it comes to dogged patience, Wexford is the top cop. Shake hands forever displays his capabilities perfectly. It's not a whodunnit is such, as the identity of the killer is pretty obvious, and not exactly challenged. Tom Wilkinson is very good, he has some terrific scenes with George Baker. I must heap praise on Baker himself, he always seemed to play ruthless Government officials, and shady villains, his role here is rugged, but heart felt. He has some great scenes where he's holding off being seduced.

  • This Is a Peer-Reviewed Manuscript Version. the Final Version Is Published in Contemporary Women’S Writing with the Following Citation: Schnabel, Jennifer
    1 This is a peer-reviewed manuscript version. The final version is published in Contemporary Women’s Writing with the following citation: Schnabel, Jennifer. "Realistic Man, Fantasy Policeman: The Longevity of Ruth Rendell’s Reginald Wexford." Contemporary Women's Writing 11.1 (2017): 102-120. https://doi.org/10.1093/cww/vpw044 Realistic Man, Fantasy Policeman: The Longevity of Ruth Rendell’s Reginald Wexford Ruth Rendell first introduced Chief Inspector Reginald Wexford in From Doon with Death in 1964; we last see him 49 years later in No Man’s Nightingale. Rendell develops the protagonist in her detective series, which includes 24 novels and five short stories, by adapting the conventions and tropes of the detective and police procedural genres set forth by her predecessors like Georges Simenon, Dorothy Sayers, and Ed McBain. However, while her detectives operate within the framework of the fictional Kingsmarkham police department, Rendell did not stifle Wexford with mundane bureaucratic constraints. Instead, she focused on presenting a realistic man with idiosyncrasies, shortcomings, and fears, as well as a character who adapts to the changing social and cultural environment alongside the reading public. Rendell has called Wexford “a fantasy policeman in a fantasy world,” using investigative methods which do not always adhere to standard police procedures (Salwak 87). As a result, forensic details are also largely missing from her narratives, such as in-depth descriptions of autopsies, lab processes, and coroner reports found in other contemporary crime novels and popular television programs. She said, “The wonder is that thousands of readers (including policemen!) seem to like it this way” (87).

  • Illiteracy: the Ultimate Crime
    ILLITERACY: THE ULTIMATE CRIME Ana de Brito Politecnico do Porto, Portugal The iss ue of reading ha s a privileged positi on in Ruth's Rendell's novels. In several, the uses of reading and its effects are disc ussed in some detail. But so are the uses of not reading and the non-read ers. The non-readers in Rendell's novels also have a special position . The murderer in The Hou se of Stairs is a non-reader but even so she is influenced by w hat other peopl e read. Non-readers often share the view that reading is an tisocial or that it is difficult to und er stand th e fascination that book s, those "small, flattish boxes"l have for their read ers. But Burd en is the most notoriou s non -reader w ho co mes to mind. His evolu tio n is ske tched throughout the Inspector Wexford mysteries. In From Doom with Death (1964) he thinks that it is not healthy to read, but Wexford lends him The Oxford Book of Victorian Verse for his bedtime reading, and the effects on his turn of phrase are immediate: 'I suppose the others could have been just-well , playthings as it we re, and Mrs. P. a life-long love.' 'Christ!', Wexford roared . 'I should never have let you read that book. Playthings, life-long love! You make me puke' (p. 125). In the 1970 novel A Cuiltlj Thing Surprised, Burden still feels embarrassed by his superior's "ted ious bookishness", and knows th e difference between fiction and real life.Pro us tia n or Shakespearean references are lost on Burden in No More Dying Fragmentos vol.

  • Ruth Rendell/Barbara Vine: Social Thriller, Ethnicity and Englishness
    Ruth Rendell/Barbara Vine: Social Thriller, Ethnicity and Englishness Lidia Kyzlinková Masaryk University, Brno Ruth Rendell is viewed as one of the main representatives of the British psychological crime novel today, however, apart from her interest in the individual characters’ psyches she purposefully covers a number of fundamental social phenomena existing in contemporary Britain.1 I select three of Rendell’s well-known crime thrillers (one written under her pseudonym of Barbara Vine) that are deeply disturbing from the social viewpoint. All three of them are her non-Wexford mysteries, i.e. without the so-called ‘Great Detective’ (Chief Inspector Wexford), where the police factor is considerably diminished and which I term socio-psychological, or social thrillers: A Demon In My View (Rendell, 1976), A Fatal Inversion (Vine, 1987), and The Crocodile Bird (Rendell, 1993). The novels clearly link the conservative cultural modes of the Victorian past with contemporary social experience of Englishness, where ethnicity and identity constitute the most significant issues. Rendell’s positive obsession with the English language and literature through which she intensifies the specific Englishness of her writing is gradually becoming more and more visible in each of the decade in question: With The Crocodile Bird this aspect forms a crucial part of the plot. The issues of class and ethnicity may still be regarded as the greatest sources of division in contemporary British society, and both of these are closely related to the central theme of the first two novels analysed. In A Fatal Inversion, which deals with both the 1970s and 1980s, race, class and immigration seem fundamentally significant.
