Abstract

The German literature gives us an amazing wealth of images and motifs, and among them the most beloved and poetic has always been and still remains the image of the sea, a symbol of inspiration, a sublime dream. The radiance of the sea, the blue of its deep shades has become the basis of the palette of colors for a variety of poetic works. The German poets Heinrich Heine and Wolfgang Goethe are among the greatest lyricists in world literature. Many Russian poets and translators began their writing career with the translation of their great works.
