ABSTRACT
The translator has always been marginalized in traditional translation theory, the translator's subjective initiative in the translation activities is greatly ignored, and even defined as "servant". Thanks to the "cultural turn"of translation research, the translator began to be concerned about as a main character of translation activities, and the translator's subjectivity received due attention.
-Charlotte Bronte is a famous British novelist whose book "Jane Eyre" is a legendary work with autobiographical color and has been one of the objects of Chinese translation researchers from all angles.In the translation of "Jane Eyre", translated by Zhu Qingying, published by Shanghai Translation Publishing House has been widely acclaimed. This paper studies the contents and styles of the original author, and analyzes and compares the advantages and disadvantages of several translations, and analyzes the translator 's subjectivity in the translation activities as the main examples and the influence.
-According to the functional equivalence theory of Eugene A. Nida, the meaning of the translation work is as same important as the original work. Through the investigations and analysis we found that the translator 's subjectivity is influenced by various factors such as cultural background, translator' s quality and translator 's translation perspective, and is often influenced by the original work and the cultural background of the author. So the translator's subjectivity reflected in the translation of words,expressions and translation skills,which brought a unique color to the translation.
