1. Introduction 

The advent of information age overcomes the limited physical boarders of countries. A lot of foreign movies, TV serials and English documentary films prevail rapidly on screens in China. As a special audiovisual form, documentary film differs itself from the fiction film by presenting its viewers both entertainment and serious messages which serve to broaden their outlook on life and their understanding of the foreign culture. Actually, a documentary film aims to record and reflect the real world, including not only natural but also human realities. Comparatively speaking, the Chinese documentary film hold a less competitive position than an English one. Plenty of excellent documentary films produced by some famous documentary makers such as British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC), National Geographic Channel (NGC) have been be popular with most Chinese audience.

However, the foreign language and culture become the barrier for most documentary film lovers in China to appreciate these premium programs fully. A subtitled documentary is more favored by documentary fans in China.Therefore, to make the information and message conveyed by documentary films legible and comprehensible has a lot to do with subtitle translators as well as academic researchers. As a matter of fact, the role of documentary subtitle translation has scarcely been studied by academic scholars despite the fact that there are some inpidual cases of studying the translation strategies for documentary subtitle translation. In China, although a variety of theories including the Relevance Theory are widely applied in film subtitle translation research while those on documentary subtitle translation are rarely found.Thus, a study on documentary subtitle translation is necessary and important. In this thesis, the Relevance Theory is adopted as the guideline to give a descriptive analysis of documentary subtitle translation, with much emphasis laid on its application to subtitle translation of the documentary Wild China by the two principles of relevance.源:自'优尔.·论,文;网·www.youerw.com/ 从关联理论视角看记录片《美丽中国》字幕翻译:http://www.youerw.com/yingyu/lunwen_67171.html
