Contrastive linguistics can be useful for literary translation, since it helps the translator to correctly identify and analyze the problems of equivalence between two or more languages. Literary language is an expressive instrument that fully exploits all the linguistic resources. Theoretical knowledge about similarities and differences between languages at all levels (phonosymbolic, morphosyntactic, lexical, semantic, pragmatic and graphic level) can be therefore of great help to the translator.
