Abstract


The article is dedicated to consideration of ethical issues in training translators, revealing pedagogical opportunities for developing future literary translators' ethics. Literary translation was chosen as an object of our investigation because the ethical questions within this kind of translation are not elaborated enough and becoming more controversial ones which cause many problems for translation trainee and trainer. Based on these views we've searched and analyzed how the ethical issues are built into the curriculum of Kazakhstani Translation Studies departments, whether students are acquainted with new tendencies of professional ethics or do they continue to perceive numerous code of ethics and behavior presented by some authorities and translation associations as indisputable truth, are they provided with critical thinking strategies on ethical issues and what are potentials for developing reflection skills in ethical training for Kazakhstani literary translation.
