Chapter 5 Reconstruction of Translational Norms of the Two Chinese Versions of The Magician’s Nephew 

Translational  norms  serve  as  the  guidance  and  constraints  of  the  translation behaviours. However, they are invisible and cannot be touched. Researchers explore and reconstruct  norms  by  studying the translated texts and the related textual and extratextual  factors.  In  this  chapter, the  author  is  going  to  conduct  a  comparative analysis  of  the  British  children’s  literature  The  Magician’s  Nephew  and  its  two Chinese translation versions and reconstruct the preliminary norms, initial norms and operational  norms  behind  the  two  translations,  trying  to  seek  out  the  norms  of Chinese translation of foreign contemporary children’s literature. 

5.1 Introduction of The Magician’s Nephew and Its Translation 
In this thesis, C. S. Lewis’s The Magician’s Nephew is employed as a case for study and its two Chinese translation versions are chosen for a comparative analysis. One  version  is  translated  by  Mi  Youmei  and  published  by  Yilin  Press  of  China Mainland in 2014, while the other is translated by Peng Chien-wen and published by Titan Press in 2002.  C. S. Lewis is short for Clive Staples Lewis whose life goes through 65 years from 1898  to  1963.  He  is  a  British  novelist  with talents  in  many aspects and  has written more than 30 books, including academic works, novels, poets and fairy tales. Lewis once  said  that, the  stories  fascinated only by the kids cannot be labeled as good literature for children. And The Chronicles of Narnia could be the best proof. He writes this book series for children, however, it holds the attention of almost all the ages. From 1949 to 1954, Lewis has finished The Chronicles of Narnia, a series of high fantasy novels. This series consists of seven books which are presented in order of original publication date as follows: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (1950), Prince  Caspian:  The  Return  to  Narnia  (1951),  The  Voyage  of  the  Dawn  Treader (1952),  The  Silver  Chair  (1953),  The  Horse  and  His  Boy  (1954), The  Magician’s Nephew (1955) and The Last Battle (1956). The story is set in the fictional realm of Narnia and spans the entire history from its creation in The Magician’s Nephew to its eventual destruction in The Last Battle.
