Welcome to four major categories (Language, Literature, History, and Culture) plus some other helpful information for those who teach or learn Russia related courses. Click on each category to look at the materials which must be a useful tool in your study.
Many of our links has only Russian version (in KOI-8 or Win encoding). Thus, it might be necessary for you to read and understand some technical information on how to setup your computer to read and/or to type the Cyrillic script. It would be the best for you to use the latest version of Netscape (Netscape Navigator/Communicator) which finally designed to "recognize" Cyrillic script and saves you a lot of time to adjust your computer to read Russian.
