Abstract

 

Hong Lou Meng, one of China’s Four Great Classical Novels, is a masterpiece of Chinese classical literature. Because of its vital importance in Chinese literature, research on the translation of Hong Lou Meng also occupies a significant position in Chinese translation circle. This paper compares the two English translation versions in terms of food names in Hong Lou Meng, excluding the drinks as well as dry and fresh fruits, and chases down the reasons why the two translators choose different translation strategies. Using Functional Equivalence Theory as its theoretical basis, this paper finds out that A Dream of Red Mansions, translated by Yang Xianyi and Gladys Yang, is more loyal to the original text while The Story of the Stone, translated by David Hawkes and John Minford, pays more attention to the acceptability of target language readers. Finally, this paper aims to explore some practical suggestions for later diet-related translation practices.

 

Keywords:Hong Lou Meng; functional equivalence; food names; translation strategy
