Abstract

Ms. Found in a Bottle is one of the most famous works of Edger Allan Poe. This paper chooses two typical Chinese versions of this short story, translated by Liangting Chen and Minglun Cao. When translating, the loyalty in translation, the reincarnation of the style of the original and the aesthetic experience are three important standards to compare the two Chinese versions, from which can gain identity in style and strong readability, which can help the study of Allan Poe more deep.

Key words: Ms. Found in a Bottle , Edger Allan Poe, translation criterion， aesthetic experience
