CZARNY CZŁOWIEK SERGIUSZA JESIENINA W TŁUMACZENIU ADAMA POMORSKIEGO JAKO DRUGI ELEMENT POLSKIEJ SERII PRZEKŁADOWEJ

The author analyses the interpreting techniques used by Adam Pomorski in his translation of Black Man by Sergey Yesenin. It becomes obvious that the Polish interpreter used traditional methods of text translation, not always keeping the formal, semantic, and stylistic structure of the original text. So, in his version Pomorski emphasized the presence of a second author-creator, i.e. himself, and left traces of his interpreting initiative in almost every line, amplifying translation, introducing unmotivated inversions, using archaic and modernized lexis. Due to such a pretentious manner of Pomorski’s translation the reader received the text which doesn’t always remind Yesenin’s original lines.
