Abstract

The role of punctuation in literary texts should not be neglected. In the translation, the approach supporting the stylistic choices of the author seems important, and fidelity is required.

Any change in punctuation causes a variation of the melody of the sentence, its poetic effect, and sometimes even tend toward a new meaning of the passage or text.
