This thesis examines the art of translating poetry, focusing on both Emily Dickinson's "A Word is Dead" and an original Uzbek poem. Drawing on theories by Nida, Bassnett, Steiner, Venuti, and Berman, the study highlights the translator's role in preserving both the emotional depth and cultural essence of poetry. Through analysis of translation choices, it shows how poetic translation re-creates the original's impact, giving new life to poems in the target language.
