PREFACE
This edition is based on the materials of the “Handbook of Spelling and Literary Editing” by D.E. Rosenthal, which went through 5 editions. This reference book not only revised and updated the “Spelling” and “Punctuation” sections, but also included a completely new section “Russian Literary Pronunciation.” The “Literary text editing” section has also been replenished with new chapters: “Complex syntactic whole”, “Shapes”, “Text editing techniques”, and the chapter “Choosing a word, a stable combination” has been completely reworked.

The directory is intended for media workers, publishing houses, authors, translators, for those who are engaged in reference, advertising, information, and public activities that require universal skills in the design of various genres of messages and public speaking to an audience. The reference book is also of interest to a wide range of readers interested in issues of the culture of Russian written and spoken speech.

The sections “Spelling” and “Punctuation”, covering the entire system of spelling and punctuation, are based on the normative and still in force “Rules of Russian Spelling and Punctuation (1956)”. The main attention is paid to the so-called “difficult cases”, which traditionally raise questions among writers. This is, first of all, the use of uppercase and lowercase letters, which is largely associated with socio-historical changes that influence the choice of one form or another (in particular, the writing of names associated with religion, which is becoming increasingly important in the life of society); this is the spelling of complex words, adverbs, combined or separate spelling of particles Not , one or two n , etc. In the field of punctuation - placing punctuation marks for isolated, clarifying, explanatory and connecting members of a sentence, introductory words, between parts of a non-union complex sentence. The conditions for use and the appropriateness of variable punctuation marks are examined in detail.

The section “Literary text editing” is devoted to such important issues of stylistics as adequate choice of words and phraseological units, normative use of grammatical forms, synonymy of parts of speech and syntactic structures. Particular attention is paid to the forms and means of expressing the author’s position in the text using various speech and text means, as well as methods of working with the text, its construction, design, and editing.

In the new section devoted to the basics of Russian literary pronunciation, along with the basic rules necessary for mastering the culture of oral speech, methodological recommendations are also given for speaking in front of an audience, on pausing the sounding text, intonation, and logical stress. It is assumed that the skills of competent literary pronunciation will help improve the culture of speech, the level of which has recently caused concern.

The Directory includes as an appendix a list of basic dictionaries, encyclopedias and reference books that can be recommended to the reader for a more in-depth acquaintance with issues of interest to him, for checking difficult cases of the use of language units.

The illustrative material is presented with examples from Russian classical and modern literature, as well as from the most recent works, from newspaper and magazine publications of the 80–90s, translations from foreign languages ​​into Russian.

Nowadays, when the literary language is strongly influenced by colloquial (and even slang) vocabulary, often invading the language under the slogan of emancipation and “democratization”, proposed. The reference book will help the speaker and writer to correctly select linguistic means, it is advisable to construct the statement and the text as a whole, and to most accurately and completely convey its content to the listener and reader.

The authors thank the research staff of the Russian Language Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, the teachers of the Russian Language Department of the Moscow Linguistic University, and the staff of the Moscow Synodal Library of the St. Daniel's Monastery, who made a number of valuable comments that were taken into account in the preparation of this publication.
