ABOUT THE FEATURES OF INTERPRETATION IN TRANSLATION

Abstract

The article analyzes features of interpretation in V. Bryusov’s translation of “The Ballad of Reading Gaol” by O. Wilde from English into Russian. There are various theories that substantiate ways to achieve the adequacy of the text of the prototype and translation. In the aspect of hermeneutics, it is necessary to bring into translation the interpretation of linguistic units that are carriers of the national spirit. Translation as an interlingual transformation must first of all ensure that information is accessible to the recipient. The hermeneutic approach to translation, equivalent translation, literal translation are compared. Translation should be clearer and simpler than the original. From this point of view, V. Bryusov’s translation of O. Wilde’s “The Ballad of Reading Gaol” from English into Russian is of particular interest. The poet defended the principle of transferring the most significant elements of the original and the omission of everything secondary.
