ABSTRACT
 This paper aims to explore the translation strategies of culture-loaded words in Fortress Besieged. Based on the comments of the novel Fortress Besieged written by Qian Zhongshu and its English version translated by Jeanne Kelly and Nathan K. Mao, the paper classifies the culture-loaded words in Fortress Besieged and analyzes the translation strategies with detailed examples. In conclusion, the paper finds that the two translators have employed foreignization as the main translation strategy and domestication as the supplementary strategy; these two strategies seem to be contradictory on the surface, but complementary in essence; and the proper combination of foreignization and domestication can help keep the unique Chinese culture in the translated version and make the westerners better perceive its profound meaning.
