Abstract
In his famous prose Xiangjixuanzhi, Gui Youguang, a renowned prose writer in the Ming Dynasty, presented the true emotions of ordinary life in brief and simple language with a strong rhythm. The prose combined the sights, events and passionate emotions into an organic whole in the way of elaborating on gratifying and lamentable business and reserving some vacant space on emotions. This paper attempts to figure out the realization of appropriate emotional communication through English translation of Classical Chinese literary works. In this study, Xiangjixuanzhi is made to experience two successive interlingual translation processes. Then we make analysis and comparison between the versions after two interlingual transformations and the original prose in emotional communication aspect. We will proceed from Xiangjixuanzhi to other classical literature works, so as to deepen our understanding of emotional communication during the translation activities of classics.

明代归有光的散文《项脊轩志》运用简洁、平淡的语言和抒情的笔调描写了生命中的真实情感。整篇散文通过阐述“可喜”、“可悲”之事和情感留白的方式，将景、事、情融为一体。本文试图研究典籍英译如何实现贴切的情感传达，令《项脊轩志》经历两次连续的语际翻译阶段，将两道语译工序后的译文与原文在语篇情感传达方面的差异作比对分析。最后从《项脊轩志》推及古典文学翻译中的情感传达，以期加深对典籍翻译活动在情感传达方面的认识。

Emotion is the soul of prose and also the internal motivation and expression object of essay creation. Prose creation is infiltrated by author's deep emotion. Prose with no emotion tastes as insipid as sawdust, and is unable to achieve the artistic effect of touching readers. Bai Juyi, the Tang poet once said that "感人心者，莫先乎情。"  Prose that imbued with sentiment may state the author’s feelings frankly and succinctly, or in a euphemistic and veiled way. Classical Chinese literary works are regarded as the carrier of the ancient intellectuals’ ambitions and emotions. The classical prose translation is a difficult and complex process due to different backgrounds and cultural framework, thus of which the emotional communication may be restricted by all kinds of subjective and objective factors.
