摘　　要：朱熹思想是具有世界影响力的思想学说,很早就被译成各种文字传播到朝鲜、日本、越南及其他亚洲国家,但其英译相对滞后。直到1847年经英国传教士麦格基翻译才出版了历史上第一部朱子学英文译著《儒家宇宙论》。为了回应“译名之争”,也为了达到基督教化朱熹思想的目的,麦格基在该书正文本的翻译中有意选取带有神性的词汇,或是通过改写核心概念的含义,在副文本的撰写中努力建构一个符合其传教士立场的朱子理气论,最终将朱子学说塑造成与基督教相呼应的至神学说。Zhu Xi’s Thought,a world influential theory,was translated into many other languages and disseminated to Korea,Japan,Vietnam and other Asian countries a long time ago.But its English translation lagged behind.Not until the year of 1847 was the first English Neo-Confucian book translated and published by Thomas McClatchie,a British missionary.As a response to the Term Controversy and in order to Christianize Zhu Xi’s Thought,McClatchie deliberately chose words with divinity or changed meanings of key concepts in translation,and tried to build a kind of Zhu Xi’s theory of Li and Qi which is in accordance with his missionary position in paratext.After all these efforts,he successfully theologized Zhu Xi’s thought and shaped it into a Christian counterpart.
