Product Description
Interactive multimedia DVD-ROM for learners of Russian language and culture. Version 3.0 for Microsoft Windows (R) and Mac OS (R). Based on Leonid Gaidaj's film '12 Chairs' (Dvenadtsat' stuliev). Prepared by Slava Paperno and Viktoria Tsimberov, with notes by Alice Nakhimovsky and Igor Sharonov. '12 Chairs' is a classic novel by Ilf and Petrov. It is a treasure hunt adventure with a Soviet twist. In the opening scene, Ippolit Matveevich learns that in 1917, just before the Bolsheviks came to throw his aristocratic family out of their house, his mother-in-law hid her diamonds in one of the living room chairs. After more than a decade, who knows where those chairs are and who's sitting on them? Leonid Gajdaj's film Dvenadtsat' stul'ev, made in the 1960s, closely follows the novel. This DVD-ROM (a multimedia Web site on disc) contains about a hundred very short (one to two minutes) scenes from the film. Digital video is far and away the best medium for presenting this material. It takes only a click of the mouse to go back twenty seconds or two minutes, to jump to the end or beginning of the episode, or to replay the last phrase or two. The software links the movie to a complete transcript of the dialog, historical and cultural notes, English glosses, linguistic notes, etc. For a student who has been frustrated by the delays and imprecision of videotape and by the time spent turning the pages of dictionaries, this is a dream come true. 'Paperno and Tsimberov's (i)Twelve Chairs Interactive(/i) is an excellent example of a successful reworking of a foreign language video into a format more accessible to the intermediate student... There is no doubt in my mind that (i)Twelve Chairs Interactive(/i) is of great benefit to the students using it, and I recommend it to both teachers and students of intermediate level Russian language courses.' - Mark Kaiser, PhD, Director of the Language Media Center, University of California at Berkeley.
