A series of detailed studies, first published in 1967, of the most
characteristic, and often the most difficult, features of the
modern Russian language, designed to supplement the necessarily
over-compressed treatment given in standard courses. The first
study, 'The Expression of the Passive Voice', addresses the variety
of Russian constructions that are available to the English-speaking
student when confronted by a passive construction which he has to
translate into Russian. Mr Harrison summarises the three main means
of expressing the passive voice in Russian and points out the
differences of emphasis between them. The second study, 'Agreement
of the Verb-Predicate with a Collective Subject', examines the
conclusions of several authorities on this point of Russian
grammar. Mr Mullen analyses examples taken from various Russian
sources and suggests factors which favour the choice of one or
other agreement with collective subjects in current usage.
