Dr. Maslenikau’s monograph, Teaching Foreign Languages with Michael Bakhtin: Phenomenology in the Classroom (2022) attempts to analyze the philosophical ideas of Mikhail Bakhtin from the point of view of their possible implementation in teaching practices, mostly for the teaching of foreign languages. The book examines the philosophy of Bakhtin’s aesthetics, deals with the possible implementation of the Bakhtinan dialogic philosophy in the theory of knowledge, and examines Bakhtin’s architectonics as a specific strategic tool, which allows for optimizing and effectively carrying out the many interrelationships of participating in many teaching processes. Together with Bakhtin’s ideas, the ideas of cognition specific to the neo-Kantian, primarily German, philosophical schools, are explored as well as their influence on Bakhtin and his followers.
