This short book takes the world-famous tutorial method of teaching at Oxford and breaks it down into a step-by-step guide on how to use it for a middle school, high school, or college class. It is written by a teacher who studied at New College of Oxford University during his undergraduate years. The author teaches the key components of the tutorial method by explaining them through his experiences as a History tutor. As this method encourages student writing, there are a handful of sample writing assignments for this style of teaching at the back of the book.

Diese Arbeit stellt das Selbstmordmotiv in der russischen Prosa des 20. Jahrhunderts erstmals in einer vergleichenden Studie dar. Ausgangspunkte der Argumentation sind Karl Jaspers' Verstandnis des Todes und die kunstlerischen Konzeptionen verschiedener literarischer Stromungen.

Die Untersuchung der Gemeinsamkeiten der Texte und die Klarung der Rolle des Erzahlers und der Motivgeschichte stellen den Zusammenhang mit der russischen Literaturtradition des 19. Jahrhunderts her."
