Abstract

The article examines the features of literary translations of A.S. Pushkin's poems into the Kyrgyz language, authored by the People's Poet of the Kyrgyz Republic Omor Sultanov. The problem of the research lies in the lack of knowledge of the originality and stages of development of literary translations into the Kyrgyz language of the works of even the most famous Russian poets. The object of the study is literary translations of Pushkin’s poems into the Kyrgyz language, carried out by O. Sultanov. The subject of the research is the characteristics of equivalence, freedom and adequacy of the literary translations being studied. The novelty and scientific value of this study lies in the fact that it is based on a theoretical and practical approach. In the work, by line-by-line comparison of the originals and Kyrgyz translations of specific poems, the main nuances, criteria and artistic circumstances of their similarities or differences are determined. The interaction of unrelated languages, Russian and Kyrgyz, within the framework of literary translation is studied. It seems very relevant to trace their mutual influence in the context of the ongoing integration processes between Russia and Kyrgyzstan, including in the sphere of culture. In this case, the study of literary translations of poetry by Pushkin as the most popular Russian-language poet is quite understandable. Literary translations of his poems into the Kyrgyz language in O. Sultanov’s version have elements of the necessary equivalence, freedom and adequacy.
