His keen and forward-thinking translator consciousness has positioned him at the forefront of the field of Sinology in France.This article reviews Dutrait's choice of translation within its his-torical and social contexts,examines his author-oriented translation strategies,and explores how he restores the heterogeneity of the original text in the context of "impossible" translation. It further investigates how the successful dissemination of his translations abroad provides insights for the construction of China's image o-verseas,thereby offering valuable references for the global outreach of Chinese stories.
