《吕刑》是我国现存最早的一篇言刑专文,是国内外学者了解研究中国古代法律文化的珍贵原始资料之一。由于语言的多样性和文化的差异,在《吕刑》的英译中存在着一些不容忽视的问题。本文在罗志野先生和杜瑞清先生的两种译本比较的基础上,从语言和文化两方面说明论证《吕刑》的可译性及其限度。 “Lv punishment” is one of earliest existing articles of abstention in our country, which is one of the precious original materials for scholars at home and abroad to understand the ancient legal culture in China. Due to the diversity of languages ​​and cultural differences, there are some problems that can not be ignored in the English translation of Lv Pun. Based on the comparison of two translation versions of Mr. Luo Zhiye and Mr. Du Ruiqing, this article illustrates the translatability and its limitation of “Lu Xu” from the aspects of language and culture.
