Mother of God and Christ in T.Shevchenko's poem "Maria" and in its translation into Russian by B. Pasternak

Biblical imagery is the basis of many poems by Shevchenko, culminating in the poem "Mariya." The author stops the attention not only on the analysis of the text of the Ukrainian classic, but also on the translation of the poem by B. Pasternak, emphasizing the significance of the work done; cospostavlyaet texts, highlighting the success and failure of the translator, the refraction of the topic in the congenial work of the Russian poet.
