The literary translation is the kind of the creation during which a literary work in one language is translated into other one. The specific character of the literary translation is on the one hand in its place among other kinds of translation and on the other hand in its correlation with the original literary creation. The literary translation deals not only with the language in its communicative function. Here a word is the first and the most important element of the literature that is in its aesthetic function.
