3. 国内外研究现状

In recent years, with the development of society, influence of cultural factors on the English-Chinese translation always is a hot topic. Many scholars have pointed out the influence of cultural factors on translation from different aspects. The British anthropologist Edward Burnett Tylor put forward the culture as a concept in the Primitive culture(1871) for the first time: ' Culture is that complex of which includes knowledge, belief, morals, art, law, custom and any other capabilities and habits acquired by man as a member of a society. ' Then, people have a deeper understanding to the culture. And the cultural differences formed in the long history of the nation have great influence on the formation and development of the language. Zhu Guangqian(1982) had said that, the most difficult thing in understanding and translating the foreign literary writings is the connotative meaning. To know about the different cultures is essential to the literary translation. Because culture has a close relationship with translation, it requires translators to have a deep understanding of different cultures, it needs translators must have a special feeling about a nation#8217;s culture. The translation theorist Zhang Peiji said: 'Translation is a language in another language to express the ideological content accurately and completely re expression of language activities. ' The American translation theorist Eugene A. Nida defines translation as: 'translation consists in reproducing in the receptor language the closest natural equivalent of the source language message, first in terms of meaning , and secondly in terms of style. ' Although they have different wording and different emphasis, but these definitions have one thing in common, that is translation is the process of translating meaning. That means the translator should gradually have deeper understanding to different cultures.
