Abstract

 

Relevance theory is a pragmatic theory put forward by Sperber and Wilson in 1986. It was initially to study people’s cognitive activities when they communicate with others. In relevance theory, communication is an ostensive-inferential activity. To make the communication successful, people must obey the optimal relevance. Gutt further developed relevance theory, and introduced it into translation study. Relevance theory is very effective in guiding the translation and it pointed out a new way for translators 

Bian Cheng, the work of famous writer Shen Congwen, has beautiful language and Chinese characteristics. It has abundant culture-loaded words. The translation of culture-loaded words is the difficult part in the translation field, but also the base for successful cultural transmission.

The aim of the thesis is to analyze two versions of Bian Cheng by Gladys Yang’s and Jeffrey C; Kinkley’s under the guidance of relevance theory. Analyze their specific translation strategies to find a better way for translation. We can see, they both have their translation feathers. Kinkley tended to literal translation and added many notes to help western readers to understand. And Gladys tended to free translation to promote understanding. They both met the optimal relevance. When translating culture-loaded words, we should pay special attention to the original context and readers’ cognitive environments and transfer flexibly between the two translation strategies and other methods to obey the optimal relevance.
