peaking of translation,we tend to think of Yan Fu who advocated for the first time the three words as translation criteria,namely,”faithfulness,expressiveness and elegance”.Yan Fu’s “faithfulness” means the full and complete conveying or transmission of the original content or thought.His “expressiveness” demands that the version must be clear and flowing without any grammatical mistakes or confused logic and sense.But his “elegance” is unadoptable because it refers to the use of classical Chinese before the Han Dynasty.Yan Fu held that only the language before the Han Dynasty could be considered elegant and old vocabulary,old structure of Chinese must be used in order to represent the original fully and adequately.“Faithfulness” first refers to the content of the original work.The translator must bring out the original meaning both comprehensively and accurately without any distortion or casual addition or deletion of the original thought.Faithfulness also includes the keeping of the original style,as Mr.Lu Xun put it “keep the full flavor of the original work”.
