摘　　要：本研究从《道德经》中“天下”一词英译的差异入手,通过分析“天下”译为“empire”和“world”所彰显的不同世界观和价值体系,发现:中国传统哲学典籍的英译不仅要注意地域性和独特性,即翻译的厚度;还要恰切呼应国家意志,注意传播的国际性和世界性,即翻译的宽度和广泛适应性,为不同国家间的互信互鉴提供历史依据。由此才能在“各美其美”的基础上,展现中国文化与世界其他文化的“美美与共”和“天下大同”。Both local and global consciousness is necessary in the translation of traditional Chinese philosophical works to the world.The translation of“tianxia”into“empire”or“world”in Dao De Jing reveals different value systems and outlooks of the world.With an analysis of reasons for such differences,it is illustrated that the translation of traditional Chinese philosophical works should not only show its locality,speciality and thickness,but be expressed in an international and universal way with an appropriate response to the national will,so as to form a historical source for the mutual confidence and identification between different nations.As a result,the“datong”can eventually be achieved between Chinese culture and the world cultures.
