Abstract
The article considers linguocultural strategies of translation (domestication, foreignization and deformation), defines their theoretical significance in the context of literary translation. It is established that translation strategies make a significant contribution to defining translation studies as an interdisciplinary scientific direction. Literary translation is considered as a product of intercultural communication. The novelty is in studying the translation strategies within the framework of the concept of synchrony and diachrony. The material of the study is the novel by Ch. Brontë “Jane Eyre”.
