The article is concerned with self-translation in the context of bilingual
poetry. It deals with cases where a poet speaking and writing properly
in two or more languages intentionally creates «partner versions» of the same
poetic text in two languages. As a rule, rather than being a way of creative outspread,
self-translation is problematic for the author. However, the history
of literature provides a number of sporadic cases of poetic self-translation. These
cases testify two things. First, that they really are exceptions to the rule, according
to which self-translation often creates an unsurmountable obstacle or is
but an idle activity. Second, that at the same time these exceptions demonstrate
unconventional or even unique models of self-communication in language and
literature, acting as cultural transfers in terms of specific «dual texts».
