Abstract
The expression of affective meaning is closely related to the accordance of propositional meaning and associative meaning. Different cultures necessarily have differences. Thus the phenomenon that propositional meaning and associative meaning have no equivalence in the target language leads to the loss of affective meaning. By virtue of the Chinese versions of Oliver Twist translated by the two translators Rong Rude and Fang Huawen, this paper applies intensive comparison and analysis to the problem from the factors of distinction, religion believes, social conventions and historical culture in order to seek for the method and strategy decreasing the loss of affective meaning in translation. In the summary of this paper, the flexible utilization of translation strategy and the different definitions of translation standard are prerequisite and needful for improving and perfecting the translated works in the translation practice. Simultaneously, this paper has its certain limitation, and provides a new angle of view for the future translation study.
Key words: Oliver Twist; affective meaning; cultural differences; translation strategy
