Russian literature holds a singular place in world culture, offering profound explorations of the human soul, moral conflict, and the complexities of social change. From the early chronicles of medieval Rus to the masterpieces of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, Russian writers have consistently used fiction as a mirror of national identity and universal human experience.
The “Golden Age” of the nineteenth century remains the cornerstone of Russian literary achievement. Alexander Pushkin, often called the father of modern Russian literature, established a new, flexible poetic language that bridged classical tradition and modern sensibility. His narrative poem Eugene Onegin not only shaped the Russian novel in verse but also captured the emerging tensions of a society moving toward modernization.
Following Pushkin, the great novelists—Fyodor Dostoevsky, Leo Tolstoy, and Ivan Turgenev—pushed psychological and philosophical depth to unprecedented levels. Dostoevsky’s Crime and Punishment and The Brothers Karamazov delve into questions of morality, free will, and redemption. Tolstoy’s sweeping epics, War and Peace and Anna Karenina, portray the intricacies of Russian society while contemplating fate, love, and spiritual awakening. Turgenev, with works like Fathers and Sons, introduced a refined realism and examined the generational conflicts of a rapidly changing nation.
The “Silver Age” at the turn of the twentieth century brought experimentation and symbolism. Poets such as Anna Akhmatova, Alexander Blok, and Marina Tsvetaeva infused lyricism with mystical and political undertones, reflecting the turbulence of revolution and war. Meanwhile, modernist prose writers like Andrei Bely and later Mikhail Bulgakov—author of the fantastical The Master and Margarita—combined satire, magic, and philosophical inquiry to challenge official ideologies.
Despite political repression and censorship during the Soviet era, Russian literature continued to evolve. Writers such as Boris Pasternak, whose Doctor Zhivago became a testament to love and resilience, and Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, whose One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich exposed the brutal reality of labor camps, kept alive a tradition of moral courage.
Today, Russian literature remains a global conversation partner. Contemporary authors, including Lyudmila Ulitskaya and Vladimir Sorokin, address issues of memory, identity, and the tension between tradition and innovation. Their works demonstrate that the Russian literary spirit—marked by psychological intensity, philosophical depth, and a search for moral truth—continues to inspire readers worldwide.
From Pushkin’s poetic breakthroughs to the postmodern experiments of the present, Russian literature endures as a vast landscape of thought and emotion, reminding us that the written word can illuminate both the darkest and most luminous corners of the human condition.

The sleepless nightmares for a while suffocated my breath
Though slightly I could avoid death
In this life and death I found myself
Where the sun rose
A shower of lightning ascended to relieve
Who is escorted by the inhabitants of Gaza in these suffering nights?
Can the fearful faces see the light of the day still?
Though the sun rises and awakens us all everyday morning.

THE POSSIBLE PHYSICAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL HEALTH PROBLEMS IN CHILDREN ASSOCIATED WITH EXCESSIVE INTERNET USAGE: EXPLORING COMPUTER VISION SYNDROME AND DEPRESSION.
Annotation: Internet usage (IU) is becoming problematic among children, which is raising the possible health problems associated with IU. This article aimed to assess how children are becoming addicted to the virtual world and explore possible physical and psychological problems associated with IU. According to the latest available data, children spend an average of 2 hours and 30 minutes on social media every day, raising the possibility of having serious digital health problems among children, which can be either psychological or physical. Several studies globally, and numerous anecdotal media reports, suggest possible links between overuse of the Internet by adolescents and young adults and negative health consequences such as depression, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, excessive daytime sleepiness, problematic alcohol use, or injury [1]. About 90 percent of children and adolescents aged 5-17 (47 million persons) use computers, and about 59 percent (31 million people) use the internet [2].
Key words: Internet usage (IU), Virtual world , Internet addiction, Computer vision syndrome (CVS) , Digital health, Depression, Support vector machine (SVM), Children, Physical health problem, Psychological health problem, Major depressive disorder (MDD), Bipolar disorder, Dysthymia.
Abstract: The use of internet among children has been increasing dramatically. Sadly, one of the biggest factors that children becoming addicted to internet is many parents` dependence on virtual world. The enough attention is not giving to children while they are being busy with internet-related activities and on top of that, even some parents are allowing them to engage with useless and harmful activities, subconsciously. About 60 percent of parents globally let their children use the Internet without any limits and do whatever they want on social media, and they do not even pay much attention to how much time their children spend in the digital world. The Internet has been having a big impact on academic performance in the last decade, making computers and electronic devices an indispensable source of education in many classrooms. Although nearly all schools have Internet access, many children and adolescents are more likely to access the Internet from their homes. Of those children and adolescents who use the Internet 78 percent access it at home compared to 68 percent who access it at school. Many of those who rely more an access at school come from lower income families (less than $35,000 per year) or have parents who have not earned at least a high school credential [2]. According to Of com, 9 out of 10 UK children aged 5 to 15 went online with an electronic device.98 per cent of 5-7-year-olds watch TV programs or films on any device for an average of over 11 hours per week. And younger kids aged 3-4 are watching for even longer with 12 hours and 42 minutes per week with 24 per cent even having their tablet [3]. Excessive use of internet gaming apps during childhood may be associated with hyperactivity, peer problems, high socioeconomic level, alexithymia concerns, shorter daytime sleep duration, and a delayed morning wake-up [4].We divide digital health problems arising from overuse of Internet into two categories : physical and psychological problems.
PHYSICAL HEALTH PROBLEM: Computer vision syndrome (CVS)
1.1 General information about CVS: One of the biggest and problematic physical health issue associated with children is computer vision syndrome (CVS). Studies have shown that eye-related symptoms are the most frequently occurring health problems among VDT users. Computer Vision Syndrome, also known as Digital Eye Strain, is a group of eye and vision-related problems that result from prolonged use of digital devices.These devices include computers, tablets, smartphones, and even e-readers. CVS is characterized by a range of symptoms that primarily affect the eyes and may manifest in various ways, such as eye discomfort, blurred vision, and headaches [5]. CVS is one of the most common and conspicuous physical health problem associated with overuse of smartphones and UV devices. A study conducted by the American Optometric Association (AOA) reported that nearly 25% of children between the ages of 6 and 18 have experienced symptoms of CVS [5].
1.2 Causes of CVS: Several causes are found but the first and primary one is prolonged screen time which is followed by long time screening. Children often spend hours on social media, entertainment apps and games. Even if they are doing assignment, this does not mean they will be bypassed. Second biggest factor is poor seating posture while working with computer, forcing child to come closer to the screen and absorbing high UV lights. That is the reason why office workers make sure that they are taking short breaks while working long hours—not only to ensure their safety and health, but also because taking quick breaks means standing up and doing some physical activity to avoid long-time sitting pain. Another interesting but simple cause of CVS is reduced blinking or in another terms -starring at screen for a long time without blinking. Eyes cannot become wet if blinking is not normal, which creates an ideal environment for UV light to more deeply penetrate the eye [5]. The last one is Blue light emitted by digital screens is known to be a significant factor in CVS. Exposure to excessive blue light, especially before bedtime, can disrupt the sleep-wake cycle and cause digital eye strain. Many devices now offer blue light filters to mitigate this issue [5]. These are the main causes of CVS, and according to many surveys it is found that many people who have suffered from it have faced these causes in the first place.
1.3 Symptoms of CVS: As CVS has several causes, the symptoms are not less. Frequent eyestrain or eye discomfort. This is manifested in the way the eyes itch, redden or often blink , often disturbs child to focus on tasks. Headaches are the most painful part of CVS. The strain on the eye muscles and the continuous effort required to focus on screens can trigger headaches, which can be quite debilitating [5]. These are quiet common among children. Researchers always involve blurred vision as a symptom CVS. Difficulty in focusing on near or distant objects is a sign of a blurred vision. It has many negative effects on childrens academic performance as they might face to some difficulties while reading from a distance or writing thanks to blurred vision. Dry eyes-as mentioned earlier, reduced blinking while using digital devices can lead to dry eyes. Dry eyes can cause discomfort, redness, and even pain. In severe cases, it may lead to long-term eye problems [5]. Symptoms are not so painful, but it is difficult for children to solve such health problems, even if they are always small. Parents should not allow these symptoms to be experienced by young children. They must teach children about the consequences of excessive IU and show some experiences for children to reflect on such physical problems.
1.4 Methods and materials: Many studies are conducted by researchers and results are approved by doctors of ophthalmology departments. Cases can be studied in various ways: assessment of the patients history, by testing patients with measurement of visual acuity, by refraction tests (it determines the necessary lens power to correct refractive errors such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism), by eye focus and coordination tests and questioning patients.
1.5 Results: According to recent studies female (all ages)are the most likely to have CVS than male. Age group also plays a role and children aged 8-11 develop this syndrome faster than adults with headaches has seen as the most common and frequent symptoms of CVS among all studies.Continents Percentage of children-adults
Asia (India) 50%
Africa ( Nigeria) 50-65%
North America (US) 65%
South America (Brazil) 33%
Antarctica No permanent residents
Europe (UK) 55%
Australia 58%
It is clear that 65% (around 48 million) children in US experienced with the symptoms of CVS which shows that the highest percentage among other 5 countries. Except from South America (Brazil) with the lowest percentage, other continent`s given countries showed around 50-60% of children with CVS. Because of Antarctica has no permanent residents, there is no any research has held.
Adults Children
Male Female Boys Girls
61,8% 71,4% 48-52% 50-55%
In all categories women (especially office workers) are more likely to have symptoms of computer vision syndrome, which is because they have hormonal influences to computer more than man and they are more sensitive to UV lights.

See how butterflies drift away in silence when they find no flower in the garden to play with its colors.
And how the breezes sigh when the trees ignore them, searching, in vain, for a branch to cradle them…
See how a melody falls mute when the words abandon it—lost between presence and absence,
between being and nothingness.
Childhood glimmers alone in the world of grown-ups
mocked by cunning fingers, watched by eyes that whisper farewell.
Look at the birds, how they changed their path when orchards no longer danced to the rhythm of their songs.
There, in the corners of longing, a small dream scatters despite the pain of separation—racing with time, playing with its shadow, and dozing off in its embrace…
It redraws old meetings—will they ever return?
There, in the corners of longing, a face still lingers on the horizon,
a beating heart bleeding in silence,
words dwelling in untold tales—seeking the echo of a breeze, a voice to return to them the sigh of memory.
And a rose, whose fragrance is the whisper of a wish.
