Abstract

Most of Lin Yutang’s writings are about western and eastern culture. Aimed at introducing Chinese culture to western countries and introducing western cultures to China, he had performed his duties as a cultural ambassador through a series of excellent works and translations. Apart from numerous translation works, he had also written a long essay On Translation which systematically explained his understanding and attitude of translation from multi angles. At that time, Lin Yutang’s translation theories are original creations and forward thinking. Therefore, this translator who integrates both translation theories and practices has provided many meaningful topics for studies in translation area.
