Abstract

Abstract

In recent years, the functional discourse analysis with Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) as its theoretical framework in the studies of the translated texts of Lún Yǔ (The Analects of Confucius) has been proposed and illustrated.Following this approach, the paper attempts to evaluate a number of Chinese and English translation versions of Zi Jian Nan Zi/Zi Lu Bu Yue (Confucius saw Nanzi/Zilu was not pleased), and the focus is on logical-semantic relations and Transitivity analysis.The paper argues that the functional discourse analysis approach can help evaluate the translation product in a systemic and systematic way.
