DOI: The Novel “Starry Nights”: A Structural And Semantic Analysis Of The Original Text And Its Japanese Translation
Umidbek Saidov , Doctoral student, Tashkent State University of Oriental Studies, UzbekistanAbstract
This article presents the results of a structural-semantic analysis of the original and translated texts. Since the novel Starry Nights consists of two parts, the research scope is limited to the first part – Arosat. The conducted analysis allowed for the identification of the key structural elements that ensure the coherence of the text and content, as well as determining their semantic interrelation. As a result, concepts formed within the metasemiotic layer of the original and translated texts were identified, and the degree of their correspondence was established. This data provided a theoretical and practical foundation for the next stage – contextual analysis.
Keywords
