 Abstract: Hong Lou Meng, one of the four great classical works in China, represents the peak of the development of Chinese classical novels. The myriad poems in it not only play an indispensable part in the plot development and character shaping, but also contribute to its ideological and artistic values. This thesis is a contrastive study of the poetry translations in two English versions of the Hong Lou Meng – The Story of the Stone and A Dream of Red Mansions. It seeks to account for the different approaches adopted by Hawkes and the Yangs in handling the poems by exploring the subjectivity, poetics and other cultural factors which the translators subject to.
