Abstract
Abstract:
The essay describes the experience of translating Mardi into Russian. The main difficulties encountered by the author and the decisions made are considered. The essay also outlines the history of Melville's reception in Russia and presents a sketch of an analysis of the novel, from which it becomes clear why in our time Mardi can find a new life among Russian readers.
