“Three Beauty” Theory
*u Yuanchong is a great translator. He has come up with many creative translation theory, especially his “Three Beauty” Theory, namely beauty in meaning, beauty in sound, and beauty in form. This theory has a far-reaching influence on contemporary translation study. The “Three Beauty” theory origins from a sentence of Lu *un’s famous article, From Word to Article.
“……邃具三美：意美以感心，一也；音美以感耳，二也；形美以感目，三也�！�
And *u Yuanchong puts “three beauty” as translation criteria. Then he e*plains the relationships about “three beauty”. He says that beauty in meaning is the most important aspect, beauty in sound is the second one, and beauty in form is the third one. That is to say, when translators translate, they should try to achieve beauty in meaning, beauty in sound, and beauty in form at the same time. If they cannot make it, they can achieve beauty in meaning and beauty in sound, not beauty in form. *u holds the idea that a best translation is that it can deliver the deep meaning, and to fulfill it, he puts forward a principle, namely “keep the meaning and forget the form”. Besides, *u writes a poem to support his principle.

忘形，表達之母。
故應(yīng)得意，以求其同；
故可忘形，以存其意。
兩者同出，異名同理。
得意忘形，求同存異，
翻譯之道。
The “Three Beauty” theory is originally used to translate literatures, especially the poems. *u Yuanchong has translated plentiful poems with his great linguistic skills and self-cultivation. As a translation criterion, “Three Beauty” can be used to translate many different kinds of literatures, therefore, many translators tends to apply it into brand translation.
As far as I am concerned, however, when we translate brands, the most significant aspect is the beauty of sound, and the second and the third are beauty of form and beauty of meaning. Good quality obviously is the first reason that commodity can help the salesmen e ……（未完，全文共16431字，當前僅顯示2956字，請閱讀下面提示信息。收藏《畢業(yè)論文：Analysis of The Translation of Brands from *u Yuanchong’s“Three Beauty” T》）
