Abstract
Gone With The Wind(hereinafter referred to as GWTW) is a masterpiece of famous American writer Margaret Mitchell. Since published in 1936, it has been translated into 27 languages. In China, many versions appear, among which Fu Donghua’s translation is controversial. Many scholars show their comments on the version of Fu Donghua from different angles. Some give their opinions based on rewriting theory, some illustrate Fu Donghau’s version in the socio-cultural context, some comment with the functional translation theory, and the others pay their attention to the use of domestication under the theory of skopos. To achieve the translation aim, Fu Donghua translates it with the way of domestication, but he doesn’t abandon foreignization. He makes a perfect balance between them.
