The Role of Translator in Literary Translation from the Perspective of Reception Aesthetics

According to Reception Theory,the translator will confront two processes of reception,one is the process of the communication between the translator and the original text and the other refers to the process of the communication between the reader and versions.The latter can be realized only after the translation has been finished.But the translator must think about the readers,and anticipate the readers' receptivity and aesthetic standards.In the whole process,the importance of translator is obvious because he not only acts as a reader of the original but also acts as the interpreter and re-creator.
