Abstract

Eco-translatology has emerged as a significant theoretical framework in the field of translation studies, offering new perspectives for translation practice. This paper explores the application of the “translation ecosystem” and the principle of “survival of the fittest” proposed by Professor Hu Gengshen in the translation of Dai literature. Through an analysis of the translation of the Dai narrative poem Sad Song about Love, this study reveals the value of eco-translatology in translation practice. The findings show that translators, through strategies such as domestication, cultural annotation, and adaptive selection, have achieved a dynamic balance and ecological aesthetics between the source text and the target text. This paper not only validates the scientific nature and practicality of translation ecosystem but also provides new perspectives and methods for translation research, promoting the application of translation ecosystem and the principle of “survival of the fittest” in the translation of ethnic minority literature.
