Abstract
The subject of the article is the development of the works of K. D. Balmont in China. The article examines the reception of K. D. Balmont's works in China; the state of translations and the degree of study of his works; identification of the reasons for the interest of Chinese scholars. The article presents a periodization of the activities of translators and literary scholars who paid attention to the works of the Russian symbolist. The work includes a classification of existing research works in China devoted to the author's works and identifies the main shortcomings in the process of developing Balmont's works. In studying the problems associated with the translation and research of Balmont's creative legacy, as well as in describing the main scientific sources raising the problem of the creative method of the Russian symbolist, the author of the work relied on general theoretical methods of analysis, synthesis, description and comparison. In formalizing the periodization of the activities of Chinese scientists and translators, comparative-contrastive and comparative-historical methods were used. As a result, it is revealed that lyrical, symbolic and musical principles in Balmont's works are always in the center of attention of Chinese researchers. Based on the current state of studying the author's creative heritage, it is revealed that further research of his poetry has great prospects in China. The study of the reception of K. D. Balmont's work in China is of great importance for further in-depth and comprehensive research into the artistic creativity and worldview of the symbolist poet. The main limitation in the process of mastering the creative path of K. D. Balmont by Chinese literary scholars is the fact that there are no translations of his prose into Chinese.
