Abstract

Translator serves as the conductor in the process of translation. The translator's subjectivity, an objectivity existence in the process of translation, has a direct impact on the process and the result of translation. In literary translation, the translator renders the original text. Though limited by ideology, peotics and the translation agency, the translator's subjectivity still works. To correctly and fully bring the translator's subjective initiative into play is the key to success. With the culture turn uprising in 1970s, the once marginalized position of the translator now draws theorists' attention. The study of translator's subjectivity has aroused a heated debate among Sino-foreign scholars.
