Language is the most reliable witness of the situation in the society & changes in it. The author analyzes the most important concepts, realized in the key-words of the Soviet totalitarian state: "Leader", "American way of life", "brother nations", "new life", etc..

We offer you a summary of the introductory part & translation of one vocabulary entry called "The American Way Of Life". | |
Some bilingual authors, dissatisfied with the quality of existing translations of their works, resort to literary translation themselves. This results in the phenomenon of autotranslation. The article analyzes one Russian & one English version of the same poem by Joseph Brodsky, juxtaposing them to each other, collating the linguistic units from various standpoints & revealing the methodology of translation, used by Brodsky himself. The article should be of interest for both literary critic, translation theorist, and those, who intend to translate Russian poetry in general. | |
