Stories of the Southern Seas

"Stories of the Southern Seas" by Jack London, written under the impression of a Pacific voyage on a self-designed ship, are captivating tales of human courage and resilience tested by the vast seas and tropical storms, of pristine nature and... fearless inhabitants of distant islands, of the clash of two worlds, inevitable and ruthless, where the doomed side does not surrender without a fight.
The stories are adapted using Ilya Frank's method of educational reading: they are equipped with transcription, literal translation into Russian, and necessary lexical-grammatical commentary (without simplifying the original text). The uniqueness of the method lies in the fact that memorization of words and phrases occurs through their repetitiveness, without cramming or the need to use a dictionary.
This manual facilitates effective language acquisition and can serve as a supplement to the educational program.
For a wide range of individuals studying English and interested in English culture.
