1. Introduction
Besides fiction, drama and poetry, prose has been also an essential genre for several thousand years. It acts as a bridge between Chinese culture and western culture in the development of literary works. In recent years, prose translation has been popular among translators due to its beautiful styles and language. Although many translators can translate and study some foreign literary masterpieces systemically, fewer translators spread Chinese culture to the outside world. In this case, Zhang Peiji, a distinguished translator, has been sparing no effort in C-E translation of Chinese modern essays for over fifty years, which makes a great contribution to the translation cause. Zhang has published the series of Selected Modern Chinese Essays which attracts much popularity since its publication.
