masterpiece Truth and Method is known as the mark of modem hermeneuticsModem hermeneutics not only brings the vitality and vigor for western philosophy,but also influences the literary studiesAs a

Background of the ResearchTranslating activity is a kind of communication which refers to the process of understanding and expressingThe essence of translation is interpretationAs an important school in modem philosophy,hermeneutics not only helps US to study the translation from a perspective of scientific and philosophic thoughts，but also provides new methods and new ideas for the theory and practice in translationThe intrinsic quality of hermeneutics is toconvey message and avoid misunderstandingAs we know,the main purpose of translation is toreproducing the meaning of original textIn this way,translation activity with its character ofcomprehension and interpretation is another appropriate interpretation of hermeneutics theoryThe study of hermeneutics in westem countries has a long historyFor instance， “hermeneuticswas first used in Greece in the 1 7m century and the meaning of“hermeneutics”is declaration，interpretation or explanationIn the 1 9也century Westem countries sought for a“general hermeneuticsand started to apply the relative theories or principles of philosophicalhermeneutics to the translation researchGerman religious philosopher Schleiermacher put study of hermeneutics to a new orientation，which was related to a system-theory ofunderstanding and explanationIn the 20th century，the German philosopher Martin Heideggerand his student Gadamer expanded hermeneutics to the complete theory ofWestern Modemhermeneutics”Although the starting point of Hermeneutics study did not focus on translation，the analysis and interpretation about literary works and the understanding of translation havesomething in commonTherefore，modem hermeneutics provide some enlightenment for translation studiesIn the 1 980s，as hermeneutics and acceptance aesthetics went into China,the point of view“translation is interpretationput forward by EvansPrichard has been accepted by manytranslation scholars in our countryHong Handing translates the book of Truth and Method from Gadamer which advances thespread of hermeneuticsMany scholars provide their personal opinions about hermeneutics and translationAccording to Zhang Yonghe，“any translation must involve fusion of horizon，which is the absolute nature of translation”with such important opinion about the relationshipbetween translation and hermeneutics(Zhang Yonghe，2006)Zhu Jianping said that“Inredefiningtranslatingfrom the perspective of philosophical hermeneutics，we should bedescriptive，dynamic and open， and take translatorsand cultural factors into consideration”(Zhu Jianping，2006)西安理工大学硕士学位论文In recent years，many scholars in China pay much attention to applying hermeneutics theory to translation activityAccording to the hermeneutics，we could find some vital theories， such as fusion of horizon，effective history and fore-understandingAt the same time，we stress the importance of translator againAbove all，hermeneutics helps US to solve translation problems from a new angleIn China,the theories of hermeneutics are still a relatively new study for translation。In a word，there have not been SO many remarkable achievements in our country，especially the hermeneutics principles translation studies on classical poetryHowever，according to these opinions from the scholars just mentioned，we Can find that hermeneutics provides US with a theoretical basis for understandingAmerican poet Robert Frost said that“Poetry is what gets lost in translation”，which indicates the loss of beautyBut the scholars at home and abroad still explore the translation strategies to present the beauty of poetryThe history of translating Chinese classical poetry into English Can be traced back to the 1 6th century，SJenyns，who was an English sinologist and poet influencing the field of translating Chinese poemsAnd the translators Can be classified into different schools according to their different translating claims and methodsAs we know, there are a lot of remarkable translators who make the classical Chinese poetry be accepted and treasured by people around the worldAnd there is no doubt that Ezra Pound and Xu Yuanchong are the most prominent representatives of them12 Significance of the ResearchChina is a kingdom of poetry and classical poetry is the magnificent gem of Chinese peopleFrom the“Book of Songs”to Tang Poems and Song Lyrics，for thousands of years， poetry with its beautiful rhythm and elegant pattern provided a huge stage for all kinds of people to express their true feelingsThere is no doubt that the Tang Poems and Song Lyricsmarked the luxuriant peak of the Chinese poetryThe most distinctive features of Chinese classical poetry are their rich images and wonderful ideograms which are different fromwestern poetryImagery should be regarded the soul of the classical poetry and its fantastic meanings should take readers infinite imaginaryReaders get at poetS expression by grasping the imagesThe images in translation are not only the hot topic for discussion but also the keyand difficulty in the translation of Chinese classical poetryThatS why the scholars and expertsat homes and abroad commit to the study of translating images to make the target languagereaders have the similar artistic enjoyment as the source language readers doIt is necessary tocarry out a research on this field2There are various systematic studies in Chinese classical poetry translation still need toexplore new theories and scientific methodsModem hermeneutics，as a relatively new field，provides some enlightenments to literary study，and also brings some inspirations to tmagetranslationHermeneutics aims at providing theoretical basis and reference in the meaning of methodology for literary studies，especially the literary translationOur cultural environment isdi圩erent f-rom the ancient culture，and literary studies need an open and broad space to form anew modewhich lays an emphasis on the importance of translationIn the historical context，the development of literature depends on a dialogue between the historical text and the understanding subject，which is realized by the fusion of horizon according to the past horizonarldthe realistic horizonIn the view of hermeneutics，the concept of“fusi
