Translation Analysis of Metaphor Translation in the Black Slaves

Yang WANG

Abstract


Metaphor is not only a rhetorical method, but also a cognitive model. This article firstly identifies the metaphors in the first five chapters of Uncle Tom’s Cabin, and then finds the corresponding Chinese translation from Lin’s Black slaves. Through the comparison of the original and the translation, this article tried to explore Lin Shu’s metaphorical cognitive process in translation and metaphorical translation methods.
