Abstract

In the translation of Chinese Confucian classics, the concepts of Confucian philosophy are interpreted variously by Western missionaries and Sinologists in different ages. Taking the English translation of Confucian classics by American Sinologist Roger Ames as an example, this paper explores the translator’s interpretation methods in dealing with Chinese philosophical thoughts and language phenomena and analyses his interpretation mode and viewpoint of Confucian terms in his translation. The unique cross-field interpretation mode under the background of eastern and Western culture can provide us with valuable reference.
