摘　　要：This paper conducts a comparative study of Li Jihong’s and Chen Yixuan’s English Chinese translation versions of The Moon and Sixpence from the perspective of Toury’s Translation Norms.Adequacy and acceptability are emphasized in Toury’s Initial Norms,reflected in his Operational Norms.In the translation process,the translator must create a compromise between adequacy and acceptability.It is found that at the lexical,syntactic,and paratextual levels,Chen’s translation seems to conform to the norms of the target culture and language in terms of acceptability,while Li’s translation tends to conform to the norms of the source culture and language in terms of adequacy.
