- Abstract
The present paper is aimed at revealing the major emotional-expressive peculiarities in the translation of a stylized text of fiction into the English language. Unlike previous linguopoetic studies, the authors offer a comparative analysis of emotionalexpressive connotations in “The Prophet” by K. Gibran with the core Sufi imagery (in translations from Arabic and Persian) analysing different types of emotions through specific lexical units transferring an emotional state. For the purposes of the data analysis, it was suggested to expand the traditional Ekman’s classification of the most common types of emotions. Thus, in this paper, various shades of basic positive emotion types were considered. The study shows new prospects for future research and concludes with linguistic implications for translators and comparativists.
