Abstract

Abstract

Chinese culture going abroad should not only highlight its uniqueness but also integrate into the world cultural system finally. As early as the beginning of 20th century, Lin Yutang began outputting Chinese culture by translating and writing in English. This paper deals with the “creative translation” in Lin Yutang’s My Country and My People, pointing out that, with unique cultural attitude, Lin Yutang enjoyed plenty of freedom to spread Chinese culture through translating Chinese cultural information creatively from an international view, thoroughly showing his subjectivity, mastery of both cultures and creative translation.
