Abstract

Forty years after The Story of The Stone, one of the classics of the English translation of Hongloumeng was published by the Penguin Group in the 20th century, the year of 2012 witnessed its Chinese-English version published by the Shanghai Foreign Language Education Press. With joint efforts contributed by the scholars home and abroad, the translation greeted the world with a brand new appearance. The new version has not only made a big breakthrough in terms of the original versions consulted by David Hawkes in his translating, but it has also created a new academic space for the study of the English translation of Hongloumeng. The thesis introduces it in detail from such aspects as its appearance, its contents, and its academic values.
