The linguistic analysis of the translation of Heine s «Enfant perdu » by M.L. Mikhailo v and V.V. Levik

Abstract

In the article the emphasis is placed on analysis
of translations of Heines poem «Enfant perdu» by M.L.
Mikhailov and V.V. Levik. The choice of this poem is motivated
by the fact that it is the final poem of the cycle, Lazarus,
and one of the last poems written by H. Heine. The purpose
of the analysis is to find the most adequate translation option
of the original. The linguistic analysis is based on the fidelity
of semantic, graphic, sound, structural, and etc. content
of the original. The personality of the interpreter is of great
importance in translation. The analysis makes it possible to
conclude that the translation by V.V. Levik is more accurate
than the one by M.L. Mikhailov.
