Філософський переклад як прояв філософської культури

Abstract

This article describes the theoretical principles of analyzing translations as manifestations of philosophical culture. Through textual analysis, the authors applies these principles to the 1920s manuscript of the Ukrainian translation of the work attributed to Helvetius, “The True Meaning of the System of Nature” (1774). The analysis reveals the key features of the philosophical culture embodied in this translation: the translator and editors&039; lack of formal philosophical training alongside their strong education in the humanities; their predominant orientation towards literary translation standards; and relatively high editorial rigor combined with a lack of opportunities for its implementation. Finally, the study proves that these features were also inherent in the Ukrainian culture of philosophical translation at the turn of the 1970s, marked by lower standards compared to the 1920s.
