Private owners of JSC Publishing House Enlightenment remove from the Internet old textbooks of the state publishing houses Enlightenment and Uchpedgiz from the middle of the last century.
Many of these books no longer exist in paper form. These textbooks are the results of the best education in the world and the work of millions of Soviet people in various fields of activity. The entrepreneurs themselves never saw these textbooks and did not lift a finger to create them, they did not spend a single penny of their private joint-stock company on them.
And here even “capitalism” has nothing to do with it: it is impossible to derive any financial benefit from the destruction of old educational books. There can be only one goal - the weakening of Russia.
Privatizers are depriving the citizens of our country of the most valuable pages of its cultural heritage. historical memory, and it already looks like the fires of the fascist inquisition. They deprive children of the opportunity for in-depth and extended studies, as well as self-education of the elders, thereby undermining the country's economy and its defense capability.
Education is not a matter for the profit of individual individuals. This is the meaning of the existence of the State.
They returned Sberbank - return the key publishing houses that produce textbooks! Deputies, politicians, ministers, this is an appeal to you and to all caring citizens.

Glory in the field

And your job is at school.

Your work is also in sight.

Honest work!

Goats and wolf.

There lived a goat. She had seven children. She made herself a hut in the forest. Every day the goat went to the forest for food. She will leave herself, and tells the children to lock themselves tightly and tightly and not open the doors to anyone ...

When the dog approaches the swamp, the lapwing flies off the nest and lures the dog along with it. He runs in front of the dog itself. The dog rushes after him, wants to catch. And the lapwing leads the dog away from its nest.

Friendly guys, read and draw, play and sing, live happily.

Yura and Yulia play chess:

And I know another game!

Learned son.

The son came from the city to his father in the village. Father said: "Today mowing, take a rake and let's go, help me." And the son did not want to work, he says: “I studied the sciences, but I forgot all the peasant words. What is a rake? As soon as he went around the yard, he stepped on a rake. He grabbed his forehead and said: “And who threw the rake here?”

Let's play echo.

When you walked in the forest or in the evening to the river, you heard an echo. You screamed, and the echo answered you, and you heard only the end of the word.

Let's try to play this game.

The car is a tire.

Laughter is fur.

A scythe is a wasp.

The screen is a crane.

Deer is lazy.

Across the river here and there

Someone is walking through the bushes.

Echo, echo, is that you?

Echo answers: - You.

Where did you dine, sparrow?

In the zoo with animals. I ate first

Behind the bars at the lion. Fed up with a fox.

I drank some water from the walrus. Ate a carrot from an elephant.

I ate millet with a crane.

Stayed with a rhinoceros

Bran ate a little.

I've been to a feast

Tailed kangaroos.

Was at a dinner party

At the furry bear.

A toothy crocodile

Nearly swallowed me.

The old man was planting apple trees.

He was told to:

Why do you need these apple trees? Long to wait for fruit from these apple trees, and you will not eat an apple from them.

The old man said:

I will not eat, others will eat, they will thank me.

One pours, another drinks, the third grows.

Grow up in summer, fall off in autumn.

December ends the year, winter begins.

Winter guests.

Fields, forests, parks, gardens were empty. Like fluff, the first snow flies, flutters. The finches left their native places.

They are cold and hungry.

Soon there will be winter guests - red-breasted bullfinches.

The children went up the mountain, took the sleigh, sat on them astride. The mountain was very slippery. The sled went very fast, hit other sleds and dumped all the guys.

A. S. Pushkin.

Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin is a great Russian writer. The whole world knows the name of Pushkin, reads his works. A. S. Pushkin is the glory and pride of our Motherland.

Do you know from which Pushkin's fairy tale these lines are:

Squirrel sings songs

Yes, the nuts gnaw everything,

And nuts are not simple,

All shells are golden...

The wind is blowing on the sea

And the boat is urging;

He runs in waves

On inflated sails...

Publications in the Literature section

Primer in the service of educational program

On October 10, 1918, a decree “On the introduction of a new spelling” was signed, which excluded the letters Ѣ, Ѳ, I from the alphabet, canceled the spelling of Ъ at the end of words - and generally brought Russian spelling to the form in which we know it today. "Kultura.RF" tells about the main post-revolutionary primers of different years.

"ABC" by Vladimir Konashevich, 1918

Alphabet of Vladimir Konashevich (cover). Petersburg, publishing house of the Partnership R. Golike and A. Vilborg. 1918

Alphabet of Vladimir Konashevich. Petersburg, publishing house of the Partnership R. Golike and A. Vilborg. 1918

The illustrated "ABC" by the Soviet artist Vladimir Konashevich became one of the first manuals of the new spelling (without the letter "yat"). The idea for the book was born during the artist’s correspondence with his family, who were stuck on Kolchak’s army, which was cut off from Soviet Republic Ural. “Dad wrote letters to mom, and sent me pictures for each letter of the alphabet- recalled Konashevich's daughter Olga Chaiko. - I was already four years old, and, obviously, he believed that it was time to already know the letters.. Later, on the advice of acquaintances, Konashevich decided to publish these drawings - and in 1918 the ABC was published. It included 36 watercolor pictures. The objects and phenomena in the "ABC" were very different, from animals and plants to vehicles and toys. They were depicted simply, without perspective distortions, since Vladimir Konashevich believed that "a child should understand the picture at first sight."

Vladimir Mayakovsky. Soviet alphabet (cover). Moscow, 1919

Vladimir Mayakovsky. Soviet alphabet. Moscow, 1919

“An intellectual does not like risk. / And red in moderation, like a radish "- and so on from "A" to "Z". This topical alphabet was published for the first time in 1919, and Vladimir Mayakovsky was the author not only of her epigrams, but also cartoon illustrations for each letter of the alphabet.

The main audience of this primer was the Red Army soldiers, whom Mayakovsky wanted to accustom to the poetic language with the help of such a satirical publication. “There were such witticisms that were not very suitable for the salon, but which went very well for the trenches” he recalled. Mayakovsky personally colored about five thousand copies of the alphabet, printed in the empty Stroganov printing house, when the Central Printing Press refused to publish the book to the poet. Later, Mayakovsky transferred many of the couplets from the Soviet Alphabet to the iconic ROSTA Windows.

"Down with illiteracy", 1920

Dora Elkina. Down with illiteracy! (Primer for adults). Moscow, Out-of-school department of MONO, 1920

Under this title, in 1919–1920, the first editions of Soviet primer for adults, developed by Dora Elkina and a team of co-authors. These manuals taught the basics of reading and writing on the basis of political slogans: for example, students had to read the phrases "Advice of the people's alarm", "We bring freedom to the world" and the famous palindrome "We are not slaves, slaves are not us" in syllables. Bright propaganda posters and scenes from the life of the proletariat served as illustrations of the first Soviet alphabets.

A few years later, the Down with Illiteracy society was created, the purpose of which was to eliminate mass illiteracy. His work was supervised by major statesmen: Mikhail Kalinin, Nadezhda Krupskaya, Anatoly Lunacharsky. Under the leadership of society, not only study guides, but also cultural and educational magazines such as Kultpohod and Raise Literacy. According to historians, over the 13 years of its existence, the Down with Illiteracy society has trained about 5 million Soviet citizens.

Primer "Pioneer", 1925

Ivan Sverchkov. Pioneer. Children's primer (cover and title page). Leningrad, GIZ, 1925

Ivan Sverchkov. Pioneer. Children's primer. Leningrad, GIZ, 1925

The purpose of this manual was to teach schoolchildren not only the basics of literacy, but also the structure of the world around them and Soviet life. "Pioneer" told young readers about life in cities and villages, about various proletarian professions, about domestic and wild animals, about measuring length, weight and time with the help of illustrations in an engraving style. Of course, the ideological component was also strong in the book. One of the main images of the primer were October Revolution and Vladimir Lenin: many poems of the primer were dedicated to them.

And childhood itself in the young Soviet country "Pioneer" was inextricably linked with the concept of "ours": gardens, schools, camps and even a revolution were portrayed in common.

"Primer" by Nikolai Golovin, 1937

Nikolay Golovin. Primer (cover). Moscow, Uchpedgiz, 1937

Nikolay Golovin. Primer. Moscow, Uchpedgiz, 1937

"Children were taught by the whole country / According to Golovin's primer", - they said in the Soviet Union, and not without exaggeration. Perhaps there was no school in the late 1930s - early 1940s where this textbook, compiled by the honored teacher of the RSFSR Nikolai Golovin, was not read. The material in the book was arranged from simple to complex: from reading by syllables to writing, from short stories about ordinary children's activities to poems dedicated to Lenin and Stalin, with obvious political overtones.

A distinctive feature of the "Primer" were illustrations, to which the editorial board made special demands. The images were bright, positive, and simple, without being overloaded with details, and also had a very clear didactic and educative tone, showing readers patterns of correct behavior.

"Primer" by Alexandra Voskresenskaya, 1944

Alexandra Resurrection. Primer (cover). Moscow, Uchpedgiz, 1956

Alexandra Resurrection. Primer. Moscow, Uchpedgiz, 1956

The Primer, authored by the methodologist and teacher of the Russian language Alexandra Voskresenskaya, was one of the most successful manuals for elementary school: it has been reprinted twenty times. The secret of the primer's success was a successful combination of tasks for the development of memory, imagination and training in writing and reading skills. The material in the manual became more complicated smoothly and gradually: from a combination of sounds to syllables, from them to short words, small phrases, and so on. The main motive for the illustrations in the book was a measured and happy village life (initially, according to Voskresenskaya's "Primer", they studied in rural schools).

Alexandra Voskresenskaya also paid special attention to preparing for the education of preschoolers and created the famous “alphabet with a stork” for teaching children in the family.

"Primer" by Sergei Redozubov, 1945

Sergei Redozubov. Primer (cover). Moscow, Uchpedgiz, 1946

Sergei Redozubov. Primer (cover). Moscow, Uchpedgiz, 1956

Sergei Redozubov. Primer. Moscow, Uchpedgiz, 1950

The post-war primer was illustrated with scenes of peaceful work and leisure: young pioneers were portrayed for extracurricular reading, games, sports and cleaning. Describing these pictures and relying on auxiliary ones, the students learned to come up with short stories for each lesson. Toward the end of the "Primer" were poems and stories to read, including revised Russian folk tales. True, the manual was difficult for children: it did not always respect the gradual complication of phrases and texts for parsing, and each page was overloaded with columns of words with the same or similar syllables.

Vseslav Goretsky. Primer. Moscow, publishing house "Enlightenment", 1993

Doctor of Pedagogical Sciences Vseslav Goretsky built his primer not according to the alphabet, but according to the frequency of the use of letters in speech and writing: they opened the book with “a” and “o”, and closed it with “b” and “b”. It was also the first primer that was released along with copybooks and didactic material.

The peculiarity of the "Primer" was its game form. Travel to the "country of knowledge" together with the students was shared by popular characters: Pinocchio, Dunno and Murzilka, and the tasks were often funny riddles and rebuses. The book also contained many easy-to-remember verses, including those by Alexandra Pushkin, Vladimir Mayakovsky, Korney Chukovsky And Samuil Marshak.

Goretsky's Primer turned out to be so popular and loved by children that it continued to be published and republished for 30 years, even after the collapse of the Soviet Union.

September 1st! How long have I been going to school, that I already miss it ... Just imagine, I graduated from school 25 years ago!!! I studied 9 classes (in fact, 8, we skipped one class there during the reforms), then there was a technical school, renamed the campaign as a college ... well, that's another story.

But in this note, we will not talk about me, but about the era of the school 80s. Surprisingly, I have since left ABC And Primer.
Primer- mine (albeit without the front cover), and ABC- brother (the book is very well preserved).

I am very glad that I have preserved these copies, I am pleased to show them to today's children and compare them with books of the present. Well, in this report, I will show them to all of you and I think that it will be especially pleasant to look at them for those who studied in the 80s .., because not everyone has such books left.

1. Get to know, " Primer» edition of 1982, with which I went to first grade, and « ABC” edition of 1987, my brother attended the 1st grade with her.

2. Let's immediately look at the reverse side of the books, surprisingly, if the Primer cost 45 kopecks, then the ABC only 30 kopecks. It turns out that there was not inflation, but noticeable deflation! Or is it saving on design, as the fruit of "perestroika"? :-)

3. We open the book, here it is, the ABC ... are all the letters familiar? 😁

5. His image in school books was unobtrusive and pleasant, a real comrade.

6. Let's look through these books, as we studied then. First my Primer...

7. Stress, syllables, right there and road signs and instructions.

8. Working professions, and of course we do not forget what a beautiful country we live in.

9. At the end of the Primer - Leonid Ilyich.

10. Now the ABC: the books are similar in content, but slightly different in design.

11. We look at the pictures and remember our childhood...

12. On "X", of course, bread!

13. And of course about the dream .. as a teenager, I thought that humanity would soon fly to other planets! That's a worthy goal for Earthlings ;-)

14. This was not in my primer, in the ABC of my brother, at the end they taught the anthem!
Which country was destroyed... the current EU is a laughing matter for chickens.

The primer said goodbye with this poem:

You learn these letters.
There are more than three dozen of them
And for you they are the keys
To all good books.

Don't forget to take it on the road
Magic bunch of keys.
In any story you will find a way
You will enter any fairy tale.

Read books about animals
Plants and cars.
You will visit the seas
And on gray peaks.

Find an example of courage
In your favorite book.
You will see the whole USSR,
All the land from this tower.

You have wonderful lands
Will open the way from "A" to "Z"!

It's a pity that in modern world, a number of Russian words are replaced by slang and anglicisms. And the benefit is that some continue to read not only chat rooms on the Internet.
