Abstract:

Translation criticism has a pivotal role in bringing forth translation theory,not only as a bond between theory and practice,but a device conducive to their interplay.By recourse to event theory's key concepts,this article focuses on the discussion of the Chinese translation of Le rouge et le noir,a major event in China's history of translation criticism,and on translation criticism on overseas translation of Chinese literature.It tries to pinpoint the active part that translation criticism plays as an event in the construction and consolidation of translation theory,as well as the elements which mould translation criticism into an event,such as opportunity,driving force and subject,so that translation criticism may better achieve its due value.

Key words: translation criticism, event, translation theory, construction
