THE USE OF ARTISTIC LANGUAGE TOOLS IN THE TRANSLATION OF GOETHE'S WORKS INTO UZBEK

Аннотация

This article explores the use of artistic language tools in the translation of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe’s works into Uzbek. Special attention is given to the role of metaphors, epithets, similes, symbols, and other stylistic devices in preserving the philosophical depth and poetic spirit of Goethe’s writings. By comparing original texts such as Faust, The Sorrows of Young Werther, and West–Eastern Divan with their Uzbek translations, the study highlights the challenges faced by translators, including cultural differences, the balance between form and meaning, and the rendering of complex philosophical imagery. The discussion emphasizes the strategies used by Uzbek translators to adapt Goethe’s works while retaining their artistic essence, thereby creating a productive dialogue between European and Uzbek literary traditions.
