His book, Selected Modern Chinese Essays, not only provides Chinese scholars with a variety of typical examples in the deep study of translating theories and techniques but also a cut way for foreign scholars to understand the Chinese ideological development since the May 4th Movement of 1919. With the rapid upgrade of comprehensive national strength and international status, China’s culture is gaining more and more attention throughout the world.

This thesis is to, through analyzing Selected Modern Chinese Essays by Mr. Zhang Peiji, sum up and learn his prose translating skills and features, discuss his translation regret and analyze reasons for the regret, and finally improve the quality of prose translation, promoting a better understanding of China in foreign countries.
