Abstract: 歌德是德国历史上最伟大的诗人之一，在世界文坛上也享誉盛名。在他笔下诞生了很多著名的诗篇，本文选取了歌德晚年创作的组诗《中德四季晨昏杂咏》，以及冯至先生和钱春绮先生两位翻译名家的汉译本。作为一部中德合璧的诗歌集，该诗具有很高的文学价值，通过对两位名家的译本进行对比分析，笔者想要探析归化和异化理论在其中的具体运用，并分析译者选择这两大翻译策略的原因。Goethe is one of the greatest poets in German history and also enjoys a high reputation in the world literary circles. He created many famous poems. In this, the author selects the group of poems “The Chinese-German Four Seasons’ Morning and Evening Miscellanea” created by Goethe in his later years, as well as Chinese translations by Mr. Feng Zhi and Mr. Qian Chunqie, two famous translators. As a poetry collection with a combination of China and Germany, poetry is of high literary value. Through comparative analysis of the two translations, the author wants to explore the specific application of the domestication and foreignization theories in it, and analyze the reasons why translators choose these two translation strategies.
