Abstract

Abstract

In 1996， Canglang Shihua， a classic book of Chinese poetry remark in the Song Dynasty， was fully translated into English for the first time. In the process of information encoding， transcoding， and decoding， the translator selectively checked the original version of the translation， refusing the authoritative Chinese version， and deliberately strengthened the proximity with the full German translation. This kind of version deviation， category reset， and translator's subjective aesthetics have effectively contributed to the overall interpretation and re-presentation of Canglang Shihua in the full English translation. This provides different modes of thinking， and renders translation a product of collision and conflict， reconciliation and balance among Chinese， English and German cultures.
