Abstract

“Liaozhai Zhiyi” is known as the peak of ancient classical Chinese novels. The narrative is close to the folk. The protagonists, with strong folk customs, are principally from the bottom of the society, which reflects the religious concepts, folk beliefs, magic and folk culture of ancient Chinese society. Since the 1840s, this book had been translated many times into English and other languages. Taking the English versions of “Liaozhai Zhiyi” as the research object, this paper describes the transmission course and track of“ Liaozhai Zhiyi” in the English world, which is conducive to understanding the translation and dissemination of Chinese cultural classics in the English world.
