,AbstractApproaches to cultures involved in translation may be divided into two methods SL culture-oriented andTL culture-oriented. This classification is based on an analysis of translations of the figurative use of language in thetwo English versions of the Chinese classical novelHonglou Meng. The analysis leads to the conclusion that bothmethods may be justified in their own right if we take into consideration the differences in the purpose of translation,the type of texts, the intention of the author and the readership.Key wordsintercultural communication, adaptation, alienation, skopos theory,;,Christiane Nord (1991)(intercultural communication);Holz-Manttari (198417)(intercultural cooperation)Andre Lefevere(1992)(acculturation),R.DanielShaw(1988)transculturation(),JuriLotman,;(JuriLotman & B.A. Uspensky 1978),;,(Reeves1994),(alienation)(adaptation),(source language culture ori-ented, or SL culture-oriented)(target language culture oriented, orTL culture-oriented)Venuti,Venuti,(Venuti 1991),(Neubert 19922-4),(Brewer 1988)Nida,Nida,Nida,(),(Nida1964a159)(func-tional isomorphs),to grow like mushrooms,(Nida1993121),1),;2);3);4),;5),1),;,;2),;,;3),;,;4),;5),;,13,A Dream of Red MansionsThe Story of theStone,;,Yen Yuan-shu,Dream in a Red Chamber,Dream in a Red Chamber,;,(Yen 1977),The Story of the Stone,TheDream of the Red Chamber,(Hawkes197319),(thedream of golden days),(Yang s version Happy Red Court)(The House of Green Delight),Nida,1);2);3);4);5)(Nida 1964b91),1) ,(156)Truly,Storms gather without warningin nature, and bad luck befalls menovernight.(Yang155)I knowthe weather and human life areboth unpredictable.(Hawkes231),;,14(165)A toad hankering for a taste of swan (Yang164)A case ofthe toad on the ground wanting toeat the goose in the sky(Hawkes 242),(goose),(swan),a swan among geese2) ,(5)As for books of the beauty-and-talentedtype, .
