接受美学视角下散文英译研究——以张培基散文英译本为例的中期报告 Abstract As a popular literary form in China, prose has its unique aesthetic features, which differ from those of poetry. Therefore, the translation of Chinese prose into English should reflect these aesthetic features. This study aims to explore the translation of Chinese prose from the perspective of aesthetics, using Zhang Peijis prose as an example. The study is divided into three parts.
