Abstract

In international trade and commerce, contract plays a vital role to standardize behaviors of the two parties. Therefore, we could not neglect contract translation which has a great influence on the understanding of the contract and the orderly trade. By carrying out research on theme-rheme theory and its application in contract translation, the thesis aims at finding out a way to improve current contract translation and reaching functional equivalence with the original contract version to the utmost extent.
