12、poetry in China which reflects the broad and profound Chinese literature. With the development of Chinese literature, more and more scholars have been widely studied about the translation of Chinese poetry. Among the standards of the translation to Chinese poetry, the iconicity has aroused more and

13、more concern. The theory of iconicity was first proposed by C.S.Peirce, founder of American practicalism and semiotics. Since then this theme has been discussed and studied by many famous researches like Jakobson, Haiman, and so on. Iconicity is one of the hotly-discussed issues at present in the li

14、nguistic and semiotic field. The theory of iconicity is a great challenge to “Saussurean theory of arbitrariness” and a forceful complement as well. Iconicity in language falls into the category of cognitive linguistics, which is regarded as an essential part of cognitive linguistics. Iconicity is n

15、ot only a challenge but also a complement to Saussures arbitrariness of linguistic sign. The discussion over arbitrariness and iconicity is a hot topic in the field of language research, which is actually a problem about the relationship of the signifier and the signified. In fact, the study of icon

16、icity has been carried out in recent years, Many philosophers, semioticians and linguists have been concemed with such phenomenon in language for a long time. Iconicity can be found not only in natural language, but also in literary language, especially in poetry, which is said to have the richest p

17、resence of iconicity in all literary genres, because poetry allows the most complex and innovative use of language on the typographical level(such as special use of fonts and spacing), on the sound level (such as sound symbolism, metre and rhyme), on the morphological and syntactic level (such as ch

18、anges in regular word order and distancing), and on the textual level. This thesis attempts to analyze Chinese poetry and its translation from a more integrated and original perspective, an iconic perspective. Much Chinese poetry can be translated from the perspective of iconicity. The iconicity is

19、an important feature of poetry and should be reproduced in its translation. In the application of the principle of iconicity to the translation of Chinese poetry, it is advisable to grasp the expressive features of iconic discourse in the source version and properly present them in the target versio

20、n. This article through the following aspects: sound iconicity, order iconicity, quantity iconicity, symmetrical iconicity so as to realize the re-creating in the form as well as in the spirit. Chapter 2 An Overview of the IconicityThe theory of iconicity is regarded as a great challenge to Saussure

21、s arbitrariness of linguistic sign. The theory of iconicity was first put forward by C.S.Peirce, the founder of American practicalism and semiotics. According to Peirce and Haimans classification of iconic signs, this paper gets six subclasses of iconicity: the sound iconicity, the distance iconicit

22、y, the order iconicity, the quantity iconicity, the graph iconicity and the symmetry iconicity.2.1 The Iconicity and the ArbitrarinessThe arbitrariness theory of language signs proposed by Saussure is severely challenged by the study of language iconicity in recent years. The view that the language

23、sign is arbitrary is the core of Saussures linguistic theory. Saussure found the nature of language symbol but he left the link unexplained between the signifier and the signified. The theory of iconicity is put forward in contrast to that of arbitrariness and has been developing gradually. Iconicit

24、y, which is an important subject in the research of cognitive linguistics, refers to a natural resemblance or analogy between the form of a sign and the object or concept.Iconicity has been discussed hotly at present in the linguistic and semiotic field. The theory of iconicity is put forward in con

25、trast to that of arbitrariness and has been developing gradually. Meanwhile, it is a forceful complement to Saussures arbitrariness as well. Iconicity in language means that the form of the word or sign conveys the meaning of the word or sign. The theory of iconicity is regarded as a great challenge

26、 to Saussures arbitrariness of linguistic sign. The study of iconicity has been carried out in recent years. 2.2 Definition of IconicityThe theory of iconicity was first put forward by C.S.Peirce, the founder of American practicalism and semiotics. Since then this theme has been discussed and studie

27、d by many famous researchers like Haiman, Givon, and so on. The following are some of the representative definitions of iconicity. Haiman characterizes iconicity as a set of “signs whose meaning in some crucial way resembles their form”. He also claims that “linguistic forms are frequently the way i

28、s because, like diagrams, they resemble the conceptual structures they are intended to convey”. The relationship between form and meaning is to a considerable extent motivated. Cognitive linguists maintain that linguistic structure is a reflection of cognitive or experiential structure. Newmeyer arg

29、ues that iconicity “embodies the idea that the form, length, complexity, or interrelationship of elements in a linguistic representation reflects of communicative strategy that the representation encodes.” Givon claims that any non-arbitrary relation in language qualifies an iconic relation. Therefo

30、re, some scholars usually conclude that iconicity is the similarity between the signifier and the signified. Language iconicity refers to the phenomenon of imitation between the sound, meaning, and form of language and what they signify in the real world. From the above-mentioned definitions, this p

31、aper can find that there is still no fixed definition of iconicity so far. Although researchers have made many attempts, none of their definitions is so perfect as to explain all the phenomena in language, and to some extent, its application is dependent on the subjectivity of the researchers and sc

32、holars themselves. 2.3 The Classification of the IconicityOutside world is the source of signs meaning, according to Peirce, signs can be placed in to three classes. Peirce identifies three types of signs: icon, index and symbol. The three kinds of signs are different from each other in terms of the

33、 degree of arbitrariness. He also further divides icons into three types: images, diagrams and metaphors, which differ from each other according to the similarity between the sign and its objects. In accordance with these he concludes three types of iconicity: imagic iconicity, Diagrammatic iconicit

34、y and Metaphorical iconicity.Haiman further develops Peirces theory and regards diagrammatic iconicity as “a systematic arrangement of signs, none of which necessarily resembles its referent, but whose relationships to each other mirror the relationships of their referents.” Haiman further classifie

35、s diagrammatic icon into two types: isomorphism and motivation.According to Peirce and Haimans classification of iconic signs, this paper gets six subclasses of iconicity: the sound iconicity, the distance iconicity, the order iconicity, the quantity iconicity, the graph iconicity and the symmetry i

36、conicity. The iconicity can be found on the phonological level, lexical level, syntactic level and textual level. This thesis will analyze the four iconicity principles of them. Chapter 3 The Standards of the Translation to the Chinese Poetry There are many standards of the translation to the Chines

37、e poetry, and among them these three standards are famous. “The similarity of form and spirit” or “the beauty of sense the beauty of sound the beauty of form” are the ideal standers and goals of translation, but the iconicity is the most important and effective rhetorical device in poetry creation.3

38、.1 The Similarity of Form and Spirit In the case of literary text, the most optimal state is “the similarity of form and spirit”. However, it is very hard to both express the verve of the original texts and represent the form of the original texts in the translation practice. Sometimes, it is imposs

39、ible to get the translation effects with “both form and content integrated” And for exactly that reason, Mao dun propose spirit likeness and Fu lei stands for “spirit is much more important than form” if you cant have your cake and eat it, you should give up the “shape” and leave the “spirit”. Compa

40、red to other literary form, poetry has its unique features on the sound, word, sentence, text structure of its organization and selection. Poetry emphasized on the outside world imitation, through mimicking the outside world of sound, form and structure to realize its stylistic effects. 3.2 The Thre

41、e BeautiesProfessor Xu Yuanchong proposes that “Three beauties” are the highest standards for poems translation. The “Three beauties” are the beauty of sense, the beauty of sound and the beauty of form. The “Three beauties” are an organic whole; none of them can be ignored. Its basic meaning is: Poe

42、try translation in meaning, sound, form structure these several levels, should use the corresponding and appropriate target language to convey vividly the poetic charm. That will give us the beautiful enjoyment of art in vision, feeling and hearing.Professor Xu Yuanchong stressed that you should put

43、 your hand to the meaning, sound and rhymes these three aspects to translate poetry successfully. Cognitively, the principle of “three beauties” is consistent with the iconicity of poetry. The “three beauties” and the “the similarity of form and spirit” are consistent. “Beauty of sound” “beauty of f

44、orm” correlate “the similarity of form”; “beauty of sense” correlates “the similarity of spirit”.3.3 The Principle of the Iconicity As “the similarity of form and spirit” or “the beauty of sense the beauty of sound the beauty of form” are the ideal standers and goals of translation, but how to atten

45、d it. Lu Weizhong thinks people should adopt the viewpoint of iconicity and throughout the translation of form especially form of extra meaning to achieve the ideal translation effect of “similarity of form and spirit”Among the types of literature, poetrys iconicity is the most prominent iconicity.

46、Iconicity is the most important and effective rhetorical device in poetry creation. So, pay attention to recognize and analyze the applying of iconicity technique in the original poems when to translate the poetry that can be able to achieve the ideal goal of “similarity of form and spirit” The iconicity now prevails in the literary works, which is a fact can not be negated. From the perspective of sign iconicity, scholars consider iconicity into literature, which reflects the real life in various ways.Iconicity is ubiquitous in literary language. It is e
