The au-thor of this paper hopes to contribute to the study of the translation of hybridity in English novels by drawing on Bakhtin's theory ofdialogue. By analyzing the translation of linguistic hybridity in Saving Fish from Drowning, the author of this paper finds that thetranslation by Caiju is not good enough and tries to provide a new direction by virtue of which translators can choose right transla-tion strategies.展开更多

Gadamer＇s revelatory undertaking walks between the extremes of subjectivism and objectivism. As the title of Richard Bernstein＇s （1983） book, Beyond Objeetivism and Relativism, still suggests, there is a life world between interpreter and text. This dialogic meeting of a text constitutes a meaningful third, a living form of interpretive semiosis. This new dwelling, a horizon of revelatory meaning, garners life via dialogic play that engages a text in the interpretive process of respectful seriousness.展开更多

Its success can be largely attributed to Zhao＇s child-oriented concept which attaches much importance to children＇s tastes and interests. With the guidance of child-oriented principle, Zhao mainly adopted the strategies of addition and substitution to present a different Alice＇s wonderland to the intended Chinese child readership, especially in dealing with Carroll＇s word plays.展开更多
