Comparative-contrastive analysis of the original and its multiple translations, including language parameters and extralinguistic factors mediating their character, held within the context of diachronic viewpoint, allows to detect the national language development, evolution of translators’ strategies, degree of literation, Russianization and foreignization of translations, level of translator’s personal and professional competence. Analysis of J. R. R. Tolkien’s “The Lord of the Rings” pioneer-translations has shown that there is co-existence of two types of translation: introductory translations, not aimed at the reconstruction of the whole semantic-stylistic depth of the original, and translations reconstructing literary features of the original making it conformable and akin for the receiving linguistic environment. Second type of translation, adopted for a native Russian speaker, bearer of the Russian culture, prevails in Russian books market by the number of editions.
