This paper attempts to make a tentative probe into the translator's subjectivity manifested in the translation of Fu Sheng Liu Ji by Shen Fu on the basis of George Steiner's fourfold translation motion theory, namely"trust", "aggression","incorporation"and"compensation". By the study, we may obtain scientific understanding of how the translation is shaped by the translator's subjectivity, thus affirming the importance and necessity of the later in literary translation.展开更多
