The Adaptation and Selection in Film Subtitle Translation

Movie,as a media,plays an important and irreplaceable role in culture dissemination.Therefore,a successful film subtitle translation deserves much of the credit.Based on Darwin’s adaptation and selection and combined with the adaptation theory,professor Hu proposed and developed Eco-translatology,which studies translation from the perspective of ecology.This theory defined translation as a translator's adaptation and selection activities in a translational eco-environment,which is the world present by the source text,the source language,and the target language,namely the integrity of language,communication,culture,society,readers,the author and so on.
