The Mordovian translation process in the context of literature and print media from the late 18th to the 20th century

Introduction. For national researchers, the translation of media and literary texts holds significant scholarly interest; however, the study of translation techniques has not been a primary focus within Finno-Ugric studies. This article specifically examines the translation process as its central subject. The objective of the study is to explore scholars’ perspectives on the concept of “translation” and to analyze the dynamics of translational equivalence in Mordovia within the context of literature and printed media from the late 18th to the 20th century.
