摘要

Poetic metaphor is a kind of conceptual structure formed by conceptual integration.It is the cognitive means,which is used by the poets to understand things and express emotions.As a conceptual structure,the poetic metaphor expresses certain semantic content,and its meaning construction is a kind of non-linear integration mode.In the translation of poetic metaphor,the translators should take the conceptual integration theory as the guide,construe the poetic metaphor firstly,in order to understand that what entities are participated in the conceptual integration of the poetic metaphor,and how the process of conceptual integration is;then,take the construal results as the basis,and take the cultural background of the target language as a reference,to reconstruct poetic metaphor in the target language,so as to achieve the purpose of translation and information dissemination.In the process of poetic metaphor translation,the translator’s cognitive model,ability and preference,the proficiency of the source language and target language,the familiarity of the culture of the source language and target language,personal encyclopedic knowledge reserve,and personal language expressing preference will affect the translation results of poetic metaphor.In addition,when the translators reconstruct the poetic metaphor in the target language,they must follow the principle of semantic consistency,cultural adaptation and universality.
