18、the ideas of the original work.II. That the style and manner of writing should be of the same character with that of the original.III. That the Translation should haveall the ease of original composition. A. F. Tytler: Essay on the Principles of TranslationTytler ranks his three laws in order of com

Alienating method归化2, translator leaves the writer alone, as much as possible, and moves the reader towards the writer.Naturalizing method异化（异化派的观点归纳起来,其主要理由有三：1有必要让译文读者明白异国文化；2译者应信任读者的智力和想象力能懂得异国文化的特异之处； 3异国文化可以丰富目的语文化和目的语表达方式；）2.6 The status of the ST and the form o

Interlingual translation involves substituting messages in one language n

24、ot for separate code-units but for entire messagesin some other language.2, for the message to be equivalent inST and TT , the code-unit will be different since they belong to two different sign systems which partition reality differently. 3, the problem of meaning and equivalence thus focuses on di

They occur at the level ofgender, aspect and
