«Раковина» - главный сборник стихотворений Георгия Шенгели, демонстрирующий отточенную технику и литературную эрудицию. С середины 1930-х годов Шенгели оригинальных стихов практически не публиковал, но занимался переводческой и организаторской деятельностью, стиховедением. В 1933-41 гг. работал редактором в Гослитиздате, где давал работу поэтам, лишённым возможности публиковаться и вынужденным «кормиться» переводами.
"The Conch" is the main collection of Shengeli's poetry; it demonstrates fine technique and erudition. In the mid-1930s Shengeli stopped writing poetry and turned to translations and theory of poetics. In 1933-41 he worked as an editor at the State Publishing House and provided translation opportunities to the Soviet poets who were denied other means of literary livelihood.
Type of proof-listening required (Note: please read the PL FAQ): standard
IMPORTANT - soloist, please note: in order to limit the amount of languishing projects (and hence the amount of files on our hard-pressed server), we ask that you post an update at least once a month in your project thread, even if you haven't managed to record anything. If we don't hear from you for three months, your project may be opened up to a group project if a Book Coordinator is found. Files you have completed will be used in this project. If you haven't recorded anything yet, your project will be removed from the forum (contact any admin to see if it can be re-instated). Please don't download or listen to files belonging to projects in process (unless you are the BC or PL). Our servers are not set up to handle the greater volume of traffic. Please wait until the project has been completed. Thanks!
The reader will record the following at the beginning and end of each file:
No more than 0.5 to 1 second of silence at the beginning of the recording! START of recording (Intro):
"Георгий Шенгели, Раковина. Эта запись сделана для проекта ЛибриВокс. Все записи ЛибриВокс являются общественным достоянием. Для справок и помощи проекту пожалуйста посетите сетевую страницу librivox DOT org."
If you wish, say:
"Recording by [your name], [city, your blog, podcast, web address]"
Say: "Георгий Шенгели, Раковина. Секция [#]"
For the second and all subsequent sections, you may optionally use the shortened form of this intro disclaimer:
"Георгий Шенгели, Раковина. Эта запись проекта ЛибриВокс находится в общественном достоянии. "
If you wish, say:
"Recording by [your name], [city, your blog, podcast, web address]"
Only if applicable, say: "Секция [#]"
END of recording:
At the end of the section, say: "Конец Секции #"
If you wish, say: "Recording by [your name], [city, your blog, podcast, web address]"
At the end of the book, say (in addition): "Конец книги Раковина Георгия Шенгели. "
There should be ~5 seconds silence at the end of the recording.
Example filename conch_##_shengeli_128kb.mp3 (all lower-case) where ## is the section number (e.g. conch_01_shengeli_128kb.mp3)
Transfer of files (completed recordings) Please always post in this forum thread when you've sent a file. Also, post the length of the recording (file duration: mm:ss) together with the link.
Upload your file with the LibriVox Uploader: https://librivox.org/login/uploader
(If you have trouble reading the image above, please message an admin)
You'll need to select the MC, which for this project is: Availle
When your upload is complete, you will receive a link - please post it in this thread.
Edit: Okay, we're good to go!
One thing I noticed is that your filename is different than the title of the project: Rakovina vs. "Stikhi iz dvukh knig" (or something, sorry, that's from google translate)?
I will need some sort of romanized title during cataloging, or we'll end up with a URL without a booktitle, only a -by-geory-shengeli
Cheers, Ava.

Thank you, Ava!
Sorry, I was interrupted and did not finish preparing the project, hope it looks better now.
The English title would be "Two Books of Poetry"; one of the books is really short, and I did not want to create a 15-min-long project. As it is, it should be well under two hours.
It turned out, one of the books includes the other, therefore only one book, The Conch. Ava, I edited the topic and changed the file name pattern, in case you care
Should get to recording soon, while trying to procure a PLer.
