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”. Chapter " Literary editing text" has also been replenished with new chapters: "Complex syntactic whole", "Shapes", "Methodology for editing text", and the chapter "Choosing a word, sustainable combination"was completely redesigned.

The directory is intended for media workers, publishing houses, authors, translators, for those involved in reference, advertising, information, social activities, requiring universal skills in preparing various genres of messages and public speaking in front of 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 oral 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”, traditionally raising questions from the 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 acquires all higher value 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 ah, between the parts of a non-conjunctive 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 an adequate choice of words and phraseological units, normative use grammatical forms, synonymy of parts of speech and syntactic structures. Special attention is given to forms and means of expression author's position in the text using various speech and text means, as well as methods of working with text, its construction, design, editing.

In the new section, dedicated to the basics Russian literary pronunciation, along with the basic rules necessary for mastering the culture of oral speech, are also given guidelines for speaking in front of an audience, by pausing the sounding text, intonation, logical stress. It is assumed that the skills of competent literary pronunciation will contribute to improving the culture of speech, the level of which is in Lately causes 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.

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

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