1. Introduction
Nowadays, the literary translation is more and more important. Many scholars study the factors affecting literary translation, but they only study one restricting factor of literary translation from one aspect and haven’t analyzed these factors comprehensively. So I want to analyze more comprehensive factors through summarizing their researches for reference for translator. He Jun discussed the cultural differences have an effect on the literary translation in On the Cultural Differences of the Literary Translation. Chen Zhijie discussed the historical features of source text in The Historical Features In Literary Translation. Wang Xiujuan studies the translator factors in On the Translator’s Subjectivity in Literary translation, she thinks that the translator plays a principal part in literary translation, and the translator's subjectivity is invariably embodied in the whole process of it. Jia Jingjing studies that the reader’s cultural background also has an effect on the literary translation. And other authors study other factors.
