UNESCO announced:

2016 World Book Capital status awarded to the city of Wroclaw in Poland. The city was awarded this honorary title for successful projects to promote the culture of reading, support libraries and develop publishing activities.

Wroclaw became the 16th World Book Capital. Its predecessors are Madrid (Spain, 2001), Alexandria (Egypt, 2002), New Delhi (India, 2003), Antwerp (Belgium, 2004), Montreal (Canada, 2005), Turin (Italy, 2006), Bogota (Colombia, 2007), Amsterdam (Netherlands, 2008), Beirut (Lebanon, 2009), Ljubljana (Slovenia, 2010), Buenos Aires (Argentina) , 2011), Yerevan (Armenia, 2012), Bangkok (Thailand 2013), Port Harcourt (Nigeria, 2014) and Incheon (Korea, 2015).

2016 in Russia:

Minister of Natural Resources and Ecology of the Russian Federation Sergey Donskoy proposed to declare 2016 - Year of Specially Protected Natural Territories. Recall that in 1916, the first in Russia Barguzinsky Reserve (Republic of Buryatia) was created on Baikal.

2016 officially announced cross year of Greece and Russia. The order was signed by Russian President Vladimir Putin. The Greek-Russian year was originally supposed to take place in 2014, but at the request of the Greek side, due to the economic crisis and the Greek presidency of the EU in the first half of 2014, it was postponed to 2016.

The cross-year program includes joint events in the fields of education, language, science, cultural heritage, art, sports and youth exchanges.

2016 announced Cross Year of Language and Literature of Russia and Great Britain. It will open on February 25 in London with a screening of the film "Anna Karenina" starring Greta Garbo. Its main theme will be the work of William Shakespeare. Program information here.

2016 in the CIS countries:

Russian President Vladimir Putin expects that at the CIS summit in Minsk, the leaders of the Commonwealth countries will support the Russian initiative to declare 2016 Year of Education in the CIS.

Memorable dates and anniversaries, these festive moments, sometimes evoke melancholy and turn into a “common”, marked with a bold “tick”, a place. Why so?
“Yes, the descendants of the Orthodox know
The native land has a past fate,” said Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin. Memory is an experience, it is a connection between times and generations, it is a complete picture of the world in the end. Leafing through the calendar of memorable dates, at least, you can find interesting facts, interesting information and unexpected parallels, and at most - find a place for the next fragment in the overall picture of the world and make this puzzle more complete and perfect. Shall we try? Memorable dates of 2016 are rich in variety and surprises.

Firstly, the coming year 2016 has been declared the Year of Greece. Each year is declared the year of "something" both globally and regionally in order to draw public attention to a particular phenomenon. So, in the “Greek” year, a rich program awaits us in the fields of science, culture, art and sports. In Greece, they say, there is everything - and we have a great opportunity to check it out.

Russia declared 2016 the year of cinema, Pope Francis - the year of mercy, the EU will spend the coming year under the auspices of the protection of women from violence, and the UN has named 2016 the year of pulses. Well, all this deserves attention! In 2016, we are still waiting for elections to the State Duma, however, it is not entirely clear whether this fact refers to the memorable dates of 2016?

Memorable dates and events of 2016

But the anniversary of the ruble definitely applies! The ruble, as the financial symbol of Russia, turns 700 years old - a respectable age.

150th anniversary of the Moscow State Conservatory. P.I. Tchaikovsky - we are waiting for wonderful concerts.

The Tretyakov Gallery will celebrate its 160th anniversary in 2016.

Tsarskoye Selo Lyceum was opened 205 years ago.

For 135 years the doors of the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg have been open.

The Russian Olympic Committee began its work 105 years ago, and the Modern Olympic Games themselves have existed for 120 years - also an anniversary.

305 years ago, B. Cristofori invented the piano - a memorable date for all pianists and connoisseurs of this beautiful musical instrument.

In the coming year, the first Russian reserve, Barguzinsky, will celebrate its centenary. The first Russian botanical society is also celebrating its centenary. In connection with these events, 2016 has also been declared the year of nature reserves in Russia.

The Bolshoi Theater turns 240 years old. One can already look forward to a scattering of creative activities associated with this date.

Orthodox Christians in 2016 celebrate several significant events at once: 855 years ago, the construction of the Assumption Cathedral in Vladimir was completed, St. Basil's Cathedral was built 455 years ago, and the Trinity-Sergius Lavra is 465 years old.

Anniversary cities

2016 is an anniversary year for a number of Russian cities. The round date is celebrated by the city of Orel - 450 years, Ulan-Ude - 350 years. The city of Omsk is a little younger, it will be 300 years old. And the Pskov region will honor Veliki Luka - 850 years after all!

Literature

Literature is generous with anniversaries this year. On the page of the notebook with memorable dates of 2016, we will gladly write these names:
Karamzin N.M. - 250 years since the birth of this writer, critic, publicist. "Love is strongest, holiest, most unspeakable"
Golden and such modern words!
M. A. Bulgakov - 125 years old.
N. Rubtsov - 80 years old

A galaxy of children's poets and writers also celebrate their anniversaries. Children's libraries and literary circles, take note!
M.D. Yasnov is 70 years old, A. L. Barto is 110 years old, S. Ya. Marshak is 120 years old. By the way, the real name of Samuil Yakovlevich is Mikhail Ilyin. And the memorable date is marked by the favorite magazine of all the kids of the Soviet era - "Funny Pictures", this publication turns 90 years old, like the children's poetess Emma Moshkovskaya, beloved by many kids.

Books also have birthdays. So several of Pushkin's works celebrate their "birthdays" at once: "The Prisoner of the Caucasus" (195 years old), "The Captain's Daughter" (180 years old), "The Tale of the Priest and His Worker Balda", "The Tale of Tsar Saltan" (185 years old) . And also in the anniversaries we have "Undergrowth" N.I. Fonvizin (235 years old), "Crime and Punishment" by F. M. Dostoevsky (150 years old), "Timur and his team" by A.P. Gaidar, a trilogy about Dunno by N. N. Nosov (45 years old), "The Nutcracker" by E.T. Hoffmann (200 years old), "Scarlet Sails" by A. Green (95 years old), "Winnie the Pooh" by A.A. Milna (90 years old), “Who should live well in Russia” Nekrasova N.A. – For 140 years this question has remained open and controversial. A great opportunity to re-read these works or get to know them.
The title of the Book Capital of 2016 - and this is chosen annually - was awarded to the Polish city of Wroclaw.

Story

The most significant event took place in Russia 155 years ago - serfdom was abolished.

And another remarkable event - the announcement of Sunday as a non-working day - will celebrate its 1695th anniversary. The culprit of this celebration is Emperor Constantine the Great. This is his oldest decree. Thanks to the emperor for the day off!

And 55 years ago, Yuri Gagarin made his first flight into space, opening with his famous "Let's go!" new era in space exploration.

And we, too, at the New Year's table will say: "Let's go!" And let's start a new year full of memorable dates and events - past and future. And someday the descendants will mark in their calendar of memorable dates: in 2016 something happened ... Something certainly good!
