  46. Marshak’s "Mister Twister" – folklore meets Soviet didactics. Mythic giants, Eastern motifs, & Cook the "wizard" agent structure the tale. Fairy‑tale America vs. realist USSR. Folk elements replace wordplay to push anti‑racist message for kids.

  47. Pushkin's "The Stationmaster" contains a daring biblical parody no one noticed before. Minsky fakes illness from Thursday to Sunday—mirroring Christ's crucifixion and resurrection on the third day. The paper shows this travesty extends to details: vinegar-soaked cloth, mock crown, silent suffering. Pushkin deliberately subverts the gospel narrative for comic effect.
