The article is devoted to the study of such a concept as «schoolshooting» based on the material of Yulia Yuzik's teenage book «Beslan Dictionary». The main goal is to consider the case of a terrorist act in the city of Beslan in 2004 through the prism of such a genre as a monologue interview. The author managed, with the help of a detailed account of eyewitnesses of those events, to reveal the full picture of the events taking place in those days, which further enhances the therapeutic effect and reflects the pro-terrorist position of the topic we have outlined.

For many centuries, man and animal have been in close interaction with each other. In the article, the authors consider the influence of animal images on young heroes on the material of works of children's literature of the XX century. The object of the study was the works of V. Oseeva «Why», A. Kuprin «Elephant», A. Platonov «Cow», V. Dragunsky «And he is alive and glowing». Using content analysis aimed at developing a quantitative description of the semantic and symbolic content of literary texts, the authors proved the presence of a beneficial influence of animalistic images on the worldview of children and adolescents in children's literature of the XX century. The data obtained in the course of the study can be used in further coverage of the issue of the influence of animals on the formation of a child's personality and on his psyche, as well as in works on literary studies and in the development of the course «Children's Literature» at the Faculty of Philology.
