Acknowledgments 16I. Introduction

    Confucian thought has always played a great important role in our Chinese traditional culture. Everyone must read the Chinese Confucian Classics if he wants to understand our Chinese traditional culture and Chinese traditional philosophical thought. Ku is the first Chinese to translate Confucian Classics into English independently. He adopted unique and distinctive translation methods in his English version. Different people have different points of view of his version. Some influential translators, Hu Shi, for example, held completely negative view to Ku’s translation, while Lin Yutang thought highly of his translation. People cannot deny the fact that Ku’s translations receive great circulation in the world and indeed contribute a lot for Western people to understand our Chinese traditional culture. With the opening-up and reform policies adopted since 1978, more and more countries tend to carry out international communications to extend influence in the international community. China is an ancient country with rich culture and deposit. Therefore, it’s our responsibility to carry the torch of ethnic culture.,源^自,吹冰"文'论.文]网[www.chuibin.com
