Ferens N.O. Exegesis in Translation of Literature
Abstract. The term ‘hermeneutics’ has growingly been used in translation studies both to mean a practical tool of understanding the original author and a number of philosophic approaches to interpretation. This often results in confusion, especially in post-Soviet translation studies that have only recently incorporated the cultural turn paradigms and are still dominated by the linguistic paradigm. The article suggests adopting a synonymic term ‘exegesis’ to mean the initial understanding of the original text by translator and argues that this seemingly medieval notion can be revived in the context of modern translator’s ethos.
Keywords: Schleiermacherian hermeneutics, ontological hermeneutics, exegesis, translation, interpretation

Lemish N.Y. Genesis and Development of Causal Dominant Semantic Meanings in Dutch
Abstract. The paper deals with the genesis and development of causal dominants semantic meanings in the Dutch language as one of the languages of our cross-linguistic research. As we differentiate between causal blocks within the causal complex, the causal dominants are considered to be their components, i.e. cause, effect, reason, conclusion, condition, result, concession, consequence, means, and purpose – 10 on the whole. It is anticipated that defining of integral semes and lexico-semantic variants of those dominants can help to prove the fact that the discussed units can be put together in one causal complex for studying. Moreover the found evidence could in our opinion facilitate the clarifying of the closeness of causal thinking and causal structures in the universal language as of the human being, and at the same time, their diversification in studied languages in the near future.
Keywords: a causal complex, causal blocks, causal dominants, integral semes, lexico-semantic variants, genesis
