ature translation under the guidance of reception aesthetics.  The  significance  of  the  research  can  be  reflected  in  three  aspects.  Firstly,  the research  on  the  translation  of  children’s  literature  is  at  marginal  position  no  matter  at home  and  abroad  and  it  did  not  get  enough  attention  for  a  long  time.  Focusing  on  the versions of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, the welcomed children’s literature, it is hoped that  the  thesis  will  encourage  more  scholars  to  pay  attention  to  children’s  literature translation. Secondly, it is a new attempt that this thesis aims to make a systematic and theoretical  research  in  the  area  of  children’s  literature  translation,  taking  two  Chinese versions of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz as a case study. It is helpful to the research on the translated versions of the novel and enlarges the theoretic foundation on its Chinese translations. Thirdly, the research on children’s literature translation did not get enough attention compared with other kinds of literature translation, let alone the research from the perspective of reception aesthetics. It will help to deepen people’s understanding of reception  aesthetics  and  its  enlightenment  on  translation.  It  will  provide  a  brand-new way and perspective for children’s literature translation studies.

He put forward some scientific principles for children’s literature translation, namely purity, modernity,  and  concisenes本论文由英语论文网提供整理，提供论文代写，英语论文代写，代写论文，代写英语论文，代写留学生论文，代写英文论文，留学生论文代写相关核心关键词搜索。
