Rendition of national-historical spirit in V.A. Zhukovskiy's early prosaic translations (from Kotsebu and Florian)
The study is devoted to the actual problem of contemporary translation science i.e. the rendition of national-historical spirit in literary translation. It has been performed on the material of the prosaic translations by the poet-romanticist V.A. Zhukovskiy. They refer to the beginning of the XIX century and demonstrate vividly the translator's closeness to the narrative traditions of sentimentalism, but at the same time his tending to the romantic narration distinguished by special attention to history and national-mental problems.
