摘要：As a key theory of functionalism, thematic progression lays stress on the sequence of sentences for the construction of a coherent discourse. Mencius, the gem of Confucianism, impresses the readers with its profound philosophy and the meticulous logic. A striking feature in the text is the application of many constant rheme progressions which reinforce the information unit in the rheme and enhance the meaning potential in the text. On the basis of the comparison and descriptive study of three authoritative English versions of Mencius, this thesis attempts to suggest the translation strategies of constant rheme progression in the Chinese canon. ? 2011 ACADEMY PUBLISHER Manufactured in Finland.
