Abstract

As one of the first National Intangible Cultural Heritages, Liyuan Opera enjoys the fame as "the Living Fossil of Ancient Southern Operas" and has the inheritance for thousands of years. Today with the idea of "Chinese culture going out", Liyuan Opera English translation still has a long way to go. In the framework of "communicative equivalence" in functional translation theory, the translators should employ the corresponding translation strategies according to the purpose of translation, to reflect the rich language style, cultural connotation and ideological background of Liyuan Opera, so that people all over the world can enjoy the unique charm of it.
