摘　　要：严译八大名著无一全译,而是采用了"非正法"——变译这一多快好省、有的放矢地摄取西方学术思想的策略。严复选择增、减、编、述、缩、并、改、仿八大变通策略的深层原因:既有国运不济、时势醒人的社会历史因素,又有个人仕途受挫所滋生的忧国之情;既有中国思想界的多面需求,又有国内学术的饥渴;既有严复融学识于西学思想以传播的强烈意识,又有《天演论》变译初试成功带来的马太效应。凡此种种,促成了严复变译西方学术思想的极大成功。None of the eight famous translated works by Yan Fu can be classified into the category of complete translation, but that of translation variation can absorb Western academic thoughts faster, better and more economically with the guidance of certain objectives. The causes of Yan Fug employing such adaptation strategies during his translating as amplification, omission, edition, narration, condensation, combination, re- writing, and imitation can he grouped into the following aspects： 1. social context, 2. concerns for China＇s destiny, 3. multi - requirements of Chinag intellectuals, 4. the desire of Chinag academic circle, 5. strong awareness of combining his knowledge with the spread of Western thoughts, and 6. the Matthew effect with his successful translation of Huxleyg Evolution and Ethics. All of the causes contribute to the great success of Yan Fug translation of Western academic thoughts.
