- Abstract
Game of Thrones has been widely known all over the world as a hit American TV series in recent years, and the translations of the hit IP from different countries express the values of different countries. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the feminist differences embodied in Game of Thrones from the perspective of translators in different countries, taking the differences between Chinese and Western translations of female images in Game of Thrones as an example. By analysing the different constructions of the female figure in the play, the origins of feminism and translation and its impact and influence on translation are explored from a feminist theoretical view of translation. The author discusses three aspects of feminist translation: an overview of feminist translation, the different shaping of roles, and the similarities and differences in the development of Chinese and Western feminist translation, and argues that feminism in China needs to draw on the best of Europe and the United States, while at the same time taking into account the country’s situation.
