Abstract:
Poetry translation has long been considered as tough work. It is even more complicated when being combined with interpretation, which is always stressful and intense to an interpreter. The brilliant interpretation of Premier Wen Jiabao’s quoted poems at the press conferences of the “two sessions” not only received busted-out applauses from the audiences, but more importantly triggered academic fever for research of the poetry interpretation. After the brief introduction to Théorie du Sens, based on the analysis of all the poems quoted by Premier Wen at the press conferences of “two sessions” and their impromptu renditions, the thesis endeavors to analyze the subjective and objective factors which pose challenges on poetry interpretation at government press conferences and the thesis puts forward tentative solutions accordingly towards these challenges.

With the fast development of economy and the deepening of opening-up to the outside world, China has been playing an indispensable role in international arena and extends increasingly closer relationship with other countries.

Restricted by time, particularity of press conference (hereinafter to be referred as PC) and other factors, PC interpretation is both a physically and psychologically consuming task, when poetry interpretation in the midst of press conference interpretation is of utmost difficulty. Though many scholars have studied on Chinese poetry translation, the author finds that quite a few studies focus on poetry interpretation at press conferences from the perspective of Théorie du Sens. Therefore, the author chooses that topic as the subject of the research.
