I. Introduction Black Cat and Ms. Found in a Bottle are two of the most famous works of Edger Allan Poe. This article chooses two typical Chinese versions of these two short stories, translated by Liangting Chen and Minglun Cao. The loyalty in translation, the reincarnation of the style of the original and the aesthetic experience are three standards here to compare and analyze. In order to achieve the standards, translators should be loyal not only to the original#8217;s content, but also to the style after completely understanding the texts and making acquaintance with themes the author expressing and his writing techniques. They also need courage to break through the shackle of the original words and sentences to translate the stories idiomatically for better reading experiences. Thus, the conclusion is drawn that the two standards mentioned above play important roles in translating literary works. II.
