IMPLICITY IN LITERARY WORKS OF JAPANESE WRITERS AND ITS TRANSFER INTO RUSSIAN LANGUAGE (BASED ON THE NOVEL “THE SNOW COUNTRY” BY K. YASUNARI)

Abstract

Japanese literature, as art, is replete with poetic images that do not always lend themselves to adequate transmission into Russian. The Japanese avoid transmitting all information verbally, relying on subtext. Means of expression in relation to Japanese art (poetry, prose, painting, theater, etc.) are aimed to capture an emotionally filled moment that disappears into eternity. Implicit information that characterizes the ideological component of Japanese culture in literary works is represented by such artistic means as metaphor, symbolism, imagery, parallelism, irony and similar linguistic. They contain hidden or ambiguous meaning and cause difficulties in translation. The article examines and analyzes methods of implicit transmission into Russian based on the translated work of K. Yasunari “The Snow Country”.
