The "Spiritual Canticle" of Saint John of the Cross translated into Russian
The "Spiritual Canticle" of Saint John of the Cross has been translated into Russian. In fact, the Delegation of the Ukraine was responsible for the project and the principal translator was Father Oleg Kondratiukowi , OCD .
The main difficulty in the work was the lack of theological vocabulary in the Russian language. From this point of view, the problem became greater when looking for words related to mysticism and especially with some metaphors used by Saint John of the Cross.
For this reason, a specific language was developed which will serve for future translations of the works of Saint John of the Cross and other Carmelite saints.
Finally, work has begun on translating into Ukranian St John's book "The Living Flame of Love".
