Abstract

Under the context of the spread of traditional Chinese culture, the English translation of ancient Chinese classics is in full swing. Analyzing the English translation of Zhongyong through diachronic analysis and synchronic comparison, the paper takes three translation versions written by Legge, Pound and Wing-Tsit Chan as examples to carry out comparative analysis of their differences, to discuss the pros and cons as well as the directive meaning of the English translation of Zhongyong and other ancient Chinese classics and overseas communication, looking forward to making humble contributions to the study and communication of the English translation of Zhongyong.
