As an important material for understanding ancient Chinese history and culture, ZiZhi TongJian contains many allusions with rich cultural schemas, which may cannot be fully understood by Western readers. This paper aims to collect allusions in this ancient book and analyze their translation strategies guided by cultural schema theory. It is found that allusions in ZiZhi TongJian can be divided into two categories: Shi Dian and Yu Dian, and there are Confucian, historical and literary allusions in the latter part. Those allusions can be translated through A-A, A-B and A-Zero correspondence. This paper shows a new angle of view in the research and enriches the study of allusion translation.
