>>59575872
Or maybe this guy, I can't decide
>>59572391
WHAT THE FUCK REEEEEEEEEE
First of all, the fuck has Abkhazia to do with Russia
Secondly, those blacks were bought by Georgian western king in Stambul as slaves to work on plantations, but it did not work, so he just left them one 1 village to live.
And that is not a real hair, it's a Caucasian hat

P sure Edgar Allan Poe is more famous than Twain isn't it?
>>59576571
You did not have to study Russian at school?

>P sure Edgar Allan Poe is more famous than Twain isn't it?
Not sure outside of America. Here you'll read both in school but I'd say Twain is more revered. Though Poe was the only other name that crossed my mind so you could certainly debate it.
Honestly Steinbeck (right above Twain) probably beats out both. I think I had to read at least 3 or 4 of his novels in school and Grapes of Wrath is read by just about everyone in HS.

Not in last years of school but when I did it was just basic grammar and vocab.
Which school did you go to anyway?
>>59576724
I had to study Russian from 3rd to 11th grade. Well, i knew Russian since childhood anyway, so i never had to actually study, but still.
I think it was the case with almost all schools here.
I went to a school in Tbilisi, i guess you are the Batumi one

>>59576770
I'm from Tbilisi too. finished high school there and then moved to Batumi.
Your school curriculum was somewhat non-standard I guess
>>59576945
no idea matey.
I changed a couple of schools, Russian + X foreign language was mandatory in both.
Except in 12th class
Either Poe or Twain
>>59575908
it's best just to ignore them, friend
>>59576721
In Spain, in literature classes we study some of both but Poe is regarded as a greater figure who influenced the horror genre & short stories and such so yeah I'd say Poe is way more famous/important
>>59577380
Interesting. Never really thought about it but obviously it's got to vary by country.
I was surprised that the Russian didn't say Tolstoy or Dostoyevsky for example.

mark twain's books are quintessential americana
huck finn, tom sawyer, a conecticut yankee in king arthurs court
whereas poe is more of a universal writer where his urban gothic horror short stories can really take place anywhere
