Abstract

The combination of the western feminism and the research of translation have brought the intense impact on the traditional translation theories and the conceptions of practice, which has achieved the plentiful theoretical achievements. The book, Translation and Gender: Translating in the‘Era of Feminism’ of Louise Von Flotow, studied the influence of the gender research to the practices of translation and the translation theories under the social cultural context in the 1970s. This paper attempts to have a review of the book.
