Max: Welcome to the channel "Russian with Max" - a channel for those who study Russian.

Unfamiliar, complex words will appear here. Well, as always, you can
find the transcription on the website russianwithmax.com. More details at the link in the description.
Julia, today I want to talk to you about history, about how to study history. The history
of Russia or the history of any other country. How to do it with interest, because my channel,
in principle, is about interest ... Yulia: Learning with interest.
Max: Yes. Yes, study something with interest. Here's how to learn Russian with interest - everyone knows.
How to study history with interest? Let's start with a question about... do you even like history?
Julia: Yes, I love history. It seems to me that finding out how something somewhere was before,
how everything was arranged, is, firstly, very exciting, and secondly, it seems that it
can help to understand what is happening now. Max: So looking to the past allows us
to better understand the future? Julia: Yes, maybe
even predict it a little. To what extent
can the future be predicted at all. Max: Yeah, everything goes in cycles, right? Do you agree
with this? There are cycles in history. Julia: There are cycles in history. But now there is
a hypothesis that everything is accelerating, these cycles are going faster, faster, faster.
I rather adhere to this point of view. Max: So you think cycles used
to go longer, now they go faster? Julia: It seems to me, yes, everything is accelerating.
Max: Reasonable. Julia: And you? Do you love history?
Max: I love history, yes, and throughout my life, history, one way or another, has always
passed. It has always been interesting for me to study the past, to see what were the mistakes, what was
right, what was wrong, and so on. But but but! I've always had a problem. In school
I hated every subject, I hated school, I hated every damn subject in school, every subject.
Well, you can talk for a long time why, but I also hated the story. But I hated history...
Julia: A little less, right? Max: A little bit smaller
than the rest of the items, yes. Why? Actually because of the teacher. Because of the teacher.
Therefore, in general, I have a rather positive experience of history as a school subject. And you?
Julia: Positive? Max: Yes, I mean, I hated everything, but
I hated the story less, and that's positive. Julia: This is already positive.
Max: Yes. Julia: I, in general,
loved history at school. I took it as an exam at the end of my studies,
and I was so worried before this exam that I learned it by heart, well, here is a book with tickets,
exam tickets. That is, there is a topic, well, some brief description of it.
I really knew exactly what was written! Max: Before the comma? That is, you could just close
your eyes and “one ticket, one question” I don’t know anything there ... “The first Russian tsar, answer, colon” ​​-
And tyg-tyg-tyg-tyg-tyg-tyg, like that. Julia: I still remember that the first ticket
was about the baptism of Russia. Max: Baptism of Rus'.
Julia: Yes. Max: In what year was the baptism of Rus'?
Julia: At nine hundred and eight... oh. Nine, eight, seven - 987th.
Max: Hmmmm. Julia: Wrong?
Max: Well, actually... Julia: Many years have passed since then!
Max: To be honest, no one knows for sure, there is an estimated date. In fact,
there are doubts about these dates. But, okay, today I want to talk with you about
how to make the study of history more interesting. Because, well, let's be honest,
in general, history... When you pick up, read a history textbook, what do you see in it?
Julia: You see a lot of dates in it... Max: Dates.
Julia: And some events. I don't know, battles, something else in places you don't know anything about,
and these words don't mean anything to you. There, I don't know, the "Battle of Borodino" ...
Max: Such and such a year. "Battle on the Kalka", such and such a year. "Battle, hell knows where else",
such and such a year. The battle... The most interesting thing is that all these, most of these dates, we are not even sure
that these are exactly these dates. Julia: Indeed, yes.
Max: But we teach them. In short, the problem is that... Do you agree
that there is too much information, and this information is rather dry, as we say, and boring?
Julia: Yes, it seems to me that the problem with history, well, at least in schools, is that these are really absolutely
dry facts that you just can’t, I don’t know, survive, feel, yes,
experience any emotions about it about. Therefore, here, in the same school, for example,
I noticed that if the teacher told about some historical person,
that is, told some story about history, it was interesting.
That is, about Pugachev, for example, right? There, or about some kings, because, well, you get
some kind of emotion, some kind of attitude to it. And if “in such and such a year he came to power,
in such and such a year, I don’t know, he signed such and such a law there, in such and such a year he died”
All this disappears at once. Max: I agree. There is no sequence
for the human brain, there is no history, somehow here is some kind of
structure that is understandable to a simple person, not a scientist. Julia: Yes, but what can be done with it, what do you think?
Max: In fact, probably the best way,
in my opinion, and you and I ... with Yulia today will try to prove why this is the best way for us.
This is the study of history through stories. But what are stories? These are some
works of art. For example? Julia: Well, for example, a book.
Max: Like books, right? Some novels are historical, or these are semi-historical novels, these are ...
Yulia: Series.
Max: Series, movies… Yulia: Musicals!
Max: Musicals and so on, right? I agree, that is, why, why… explain to me
why it is so interesting to study? Yulia: Because when you read something
fiction or watch it, you begin to treat these characters
and these events more emotionally. That is, for you it ceases to be a dry
fact from a textbook, you see in it, well, something for which you experience some kind of emotion. Maybe
there, you empathize with this character or he, on the contrary, annoys you, but you have an
emotional attitude. Max: Got it. Emotions.
First, right? emotional involvement. Julia: Emotional involvement, yes.
Max: Okay, emotional involvement. But I can object to this - so what?
Okay, emotional involvement... There is emotional involvement when I watch an action movie with
Arnold Schwarzenegger, but an action movie with Arnold Schwarzenegger is fiction, it's fiction.
Julia: Yes. Max: How do I know that this film,
this historical film, is showing the truth? Julia: If this topic interests you,
you watch something, get emotionally involved and decide to learn more,
it will be easier for you to do it. Because you can go read
a historical book or there, I don’t know, some historical articles are already about real facts.
But you will already have more interest in it, because you already have some
emotions about these characters. For example, I had a period of my life
when I was very fond of French music, French history, French literature.
Max: Voulez-vous coucher avec moi… Yulia: Yes, yes, something like that. And there is such a musical
"King of the Sun" ... Max: How?
Julia: "King of the Sun." Max: "King of the Sun."
Julia: It's about Louis XIV. That is, it is a work of art, a musical.
That is, here is a production on stage, filmed on a video camera, which tells
the story of Louis XIV. Accordingly, I looked at it,
it became very interesting for me to figure out what was happening at that time, and after
that I went to read, well, some other sources. Would I be interested in the history
of France just like that? Well, it's incredible. Max: Look, yeah, I get it.
That is, you create an emotional attachment, and this makes you ... you ... first, an emotional attachment
and interest. Julia: Yes.
Max: And then you are just interested in learning something more about this historical period,
and you begin to study, let's say, more scientific, historical literature.
and you begin to study, let's say, more scientific, historical literature.
Julia: Yes. Max: That is ... Yeah, that is, first
an emotional connection, and then some ... Yulia: Yes, and then you can check
how much what you saw in this film or series is true.
Even if you read the same history textbook, or some publications, I don’t know, eyewitnesses, there,
those events, if it’s something from modern history, it’s easier for you to perceive it.
Max: I agree with you, because just recently, friends, I did a podcast.
A series of podcasts about Chernobyl. About Chernobyl, about the Chernobyl accident.
And just the trigger for this series was the series from HBO, which I watched.
I think wow, great! I want to know more deeply what was true, what was not true.
By the way, if you want to know this too, listen to my Comprehensible Russian Podcast.
And join the membership program, you will have not only video transcriptions, but also
podcasts, and various additional materials. Learn Russian with pleasure and interest!
Julia: And emotional involvement. Max: Emotional involvement. This is what you will have.
Emotional involvement and interest, one hundred percent. So, I looked ... we watched this
series and it became very interesting to figure it out. However, as in the case of HBO, also in the case
of Soviet historical films, also in the case of contemporary Russian films…
Oh yes! In addition to historical distortions or some inaccuracies, what else is there?
Julia: There is also an element of propaganda.
Max: Yes, there is also an element of propaganda, and it seems that you also need to think about this
when you watch a historical film, right? Julia: Absolutely. That is, you need to understand
that one historical film is not a source with one hundred percent reliability, after watching which,
you can say that I figured it out. Yes? I figured out Chernobyl,
I figured out the Decembrists, I figured out the history of France. But conditionally ... okay, let there
be some kind of, well, what is called, optics, point of view, however, then you can
go and look for information in other sources. Max: I agree with you. Let's recap then.
In order to study with interest the history of Russia,
France, China, Japan, we better ... Well, one of the approaches, right? That's the approach
we're talking about, it's... Don't dive into complex literature first
, but start over with movies, TV series, fiction.
To be interested in making an emotional connection and then only to study this topic more deeply, right?
Julia: Absolutely. Max: Do you think
it's the same with learning a foreign language? Yulia: Probably, a similar scheme,
if you are interested… well, that's how I gave an example with French music, for example.
I really listened to a huge number of French and French-Canadian musicals.
There, 15 years ago, I don't know, 10 years ago. And I was interested in learning French.
That is, there were even textbooks for some musicals, I bought them to read the texts,
to see what else was written there. So, yes, it will most likely work as well.
Perhaps a little more difficult than with history ... Max: But it seems to me that it is not more difficult.
Your task is to get carried away with something, for example ... For example, you like Russian literature, and this is your
way to the Russian language. Julia: Also true.
Max: Or a movie. Julia: And in Russian history too.
Because by reading Russian literature, you can certainly learn more
about that period, yes, when it all happened. Max: I agree, Julia, with you.
Do you agree, friends? Please let us know.
Write in the comments what you think. How do you approach learning history,
languages ​​or other things? Do you think it would be interesting for you
to try to do it first with the help of something artistic, and then move on to ...
Yulia: Historical. Max: To the historical, yes, to this,
already the main theoretical part. Write what you think and see you in the next video!
Julia: Bye bye! Max: Bye!
