Abstract

This article presents the results of a study of the reception of Russian classics in modern foreign literature in the context of higher education. The relevance of this topic is due to the need to understand the role of Russian classical literature in the world literary process and its influence on the formation of aesthetic and ideological attitudes of modern foreign writers. The purpose of the study is to identify the peculiarities of perception and interpretation of the works of Russian classics in the context of modern foreign literature and to identify effective methods of studying this issue within the framework of the educational process in higher education. Russian Russian classical literature Materials and research methods include an analysis of literary works by foreign authors of the XXI century, which trace the influence of Russian classical literature, as well as a survey of students and teachers of foreign universities aimed at identifying their attitude to the work of Russian classics and the degree of familiarity with it. The research used methods of comparative historical, typological and intertextual analysis, as well as sociological methods of questioning and interviewing. The results of the study showed that the work of Russian classics such as F.M. Dostoevsky, L.N. Tolstoy, A.P. Chekhov, I.S. Turgenev, etc., still arouses considerable interest among foreign readers and has a significant impact on the modern literary process. In the works of a number of modern foreign authors, in particular, J. M. Kutsee, O. Pamuka, H. Murakami, M. Houellebecq et al., numerous allusions, reminiscences and intertextual connections with the works of Russian classics are found. A survey of students and teachers of foreign universities revealed a high level of familiarity with the work of Russian writers and interest in its further study. At the same time, the study showed the need to improve the methods of teaching Russian literature to foreign audiences, taking into account cultural and linguistic differences.
