Peculiarities and linguistic problems of the translation from Russian poetry of Silver Age into the Spanish language

the purpose of this study is to analyze the extent to which the Spanish translation reflects all the stylistic characteristics found in the original Russian Silver Age poems, in order to identify the most relevant features and difficulties encountered by translators of this language pair. The research conducted allows to conclude that there are three main factors that have a decisive influence on the success that poetic recreation can achieve in terms of translation theory. Firstly, there is the need for interdisciplinary research by translators of both text and its surrounding elements. Secondly, the strophic structure of the poem and its vertical and horizontal contexts is to be considered. Thirdly, the characteristic phenomenon of euphony in Russian poems is to be taking into account. In addition to the effort to find a middle ground between these factors, one must consider the fact that handling analytic and syntactic languages exponentially complicates the solution reported challenge. The practical significance of a comparative study of the translation of works by Russian Symbolists, Acmeists, and Futurists is to create a useful resource that will make it possible to understand the shortcomings found in certain works and motivate future Russian-to-Spanish translators to produce translations accurate to the original.
