The article concerns the principles of translating philosophical texts which have a number of particular features. Above all, that is the use of certain specific terminological means. The chief object and the main difficulty we deal with is looking for and revealing a correct translation for the philosophical concepts into Russian (from all languages). Hereby, both the meaning the author had in mind with the concept and the grammatical structure of Russian must be taken into account. That is why a close collaboration between a philosopher and philologist is required.
