Abstract
“The Song of a Yue Boatman” is an important part of Chu culture. A good translation of it will be of great help to Chu culture’s “going global”. There are already several English versions, but whether they have reproduced the artistic conception of the original poem is still open to discussion. This paper will apply the Three-Level Criteria for poetry translation to analyze five translations of “The Song of a Yue Boatman”. Finally, the author will put forward a reference version accordingly.
