A Comparative Study On Two Chinese Versions of A Modest Proposal
Abstract A Modest Proposal is a satirical prose written by the British essayist and novelist Jonathan Swift. Over hundreds of years it has been acknowledged as one of the typical prose works in English language. Since first being translated into Chinese in the early 20th century, it has been popular among Chinese readers for its distinct style and witty ironies. This thesis studies its two Chinese versions translated respectively by Zhou Zuoren and Liu Bingshan on a basis of Nida’s functional equivalence theory. The nature of functional equivalence and its principles are to be discussed and used as criterion judging the appropriateness of the translation. By comparing the functional equivalence achieved in different aspect of language in each version, the analysis will finally give a result as to which version is more functionally equal to the original work.
Keywords: A Modest Proposal; functional equivalence theory; translation appreciation
