САЖЕТАК / ABSTRACT:

This paper provides a theoretical overview of the role and methodological potential of literary texts in foreign language teaching, with a special emphasis on Russian as a foreign language. Drawing on contemporary methodological approaches and relevant pedagogical principles, the paper discusses the linguistic, cultural and educational value of literary texts, highlighting their contribution to the development of vocabulary, grammatical awareness, communicative competence and intercultural understanding. Special attention is paid to the criteria for selecting appropriate literary material in relation to students’ age, level of knowledge, interests and cognitive abilities. The paper also presents methodological guidelines for the effective use of literary texts in the classroom, illustrating how these texts can support phonological development, creativity, emotional engagement and meaningful use of language. The aim of the paper is to offer a comprehensive theoretical basis and practical methodological recommendations that can assist foreign language teachers in planning and implementing lessons enriched with literary content.
