which were a mixture of the biblical “history” with the
real one, could have occurred at the Slavic-Greek-Latin Academy in Moscow.

appointed to the department, Lomonosov soon played a leading role in it: reviewed the works, took part in discussions and expressed his competent opinion.

Russian language
M.V. Lomonosov is a founder of a science about Russian
language. he is our first linguist who started to study a lively Russian language. He was the first scientist who characterized subject and goals of Russian linguistics as a science.
Слайд 47www.themegallery.com
“Russian grammar” published in 1755 was a result
of all his work and his thoughts about Russian language.
It is the first scientific work regarding Russian language. Strict scientific plan, completeness, big volume of material, scientific analyses are topical till now determined a historical value of Lomonosov’s grammar.
Слайд 48www.themegallery.com
So, Lomonosov theoretically and
practically favoured the development of Russian language and its study.
Main thing what Lomonosov brilliantly managed is to arouse huge interest of the public to language.
That’s why the Russian literary language with its style’s richness develops so quickly after Lomonosov, many genres of poetry and prose form different aspects of oratory, philology becomes more active, Russian language vocabularies and Russian grammar are set up.

EDUCATION
“If a schoolboy doesn’t
know the Russian grammar, he must study in the first
form until he will be able to read and write well. University must include: the faculty of law, medical and philosophic faculties. Gymnasium is a first basis of free arts and sciences… Young people should learn right way of thinking and good manners there”.

SCIENCE,
ENLIGHTENMENT
“Science is a clear knowledge of truth, enlightenment
of intellect, praise of the young, support of the old, builder of cities, strength of luck in misery, adorning in happiness, reliable partner everywhere.
Intellect by means of science gets to the mystery of substance, points out where is a truth. Science and experience are only means, only a framework for reflection”.
