Abstract


Emily Dickinson is a well-known poet in American literature, writing nearly 1800 poems during her lifetime. Dickinson’s poems are studied and translated by scholars and translators in China. Zhou Jianxin is an outstanding professor to study Emily Dickinson. The present author uses Jindi’s equivalent theory to analyze Zhou Jianxin’s translated version of Emily Dickinson’s poem, hoping that this paper will provide a new angle to appreciate Chinese version of English poems and give some inspiration to translation theories.
