Title	V laboratorii redaktora. Slovo zhivoe i mertvoe
Description	This collection includes two books on the Russian language, the significance and uniqueness of which remain unparalleled even decades after their publication. "In the Editor's Laboratory" (1960) is one of the key books dedicated to the purity and richness of the Russian language. In her book, the distinguished writer, critic, and literary scholar Lidiya Chukovskaya shares her experience working on the legendary editorial board of Detgiz. According to the author, "This book is not a textbook on editing. I do not set myself any educational goals, and it is unlikely that any textbook can serve any purpose in mastering this art. The purpose of this book is different: I simply wanted to understand the experience accumulated by myself and my closest colleagues, to collect and summarize it, and to introduce the reader to the thoughts, concerns, and questions that I encountered over three decades of literary work." Nora Gal is an outstanding translator of English and French literature, whose works (Destined for Saint-Exupéry's The Little Prince, Camus's The Stranger, Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird... and many others) have long been part of the treasury of Russian literature. Her major theoretical work, The Living and the Dead Word, is devoted to literary translation and represents the quintessence of the author's experience as an editor and translator. With brilliance and humor, the author plays with the rich material gathered from more than half a century of working with texts, defending and protecting one of the most important assets of our culture — the purity of the Russian language.
