Abstract: It is commonly seen that writers and translators,source texts and target texts,as well as social incidents are the key elements of writing a history of translated literature.However,it is still far from enough to show the research profundity of the history of translated literature because the methodology of universal application significance in the historical research is to be involved.However,there exist differences between the studies of macro history and micro history of translated literature in terms of the methodology,that is,while the former focuses on a literal historical account of events requiring involvement of all kinds of the key elements above-mentioned,the latter focusing on an in-depth exploration of interaction between social context and translation usually prioritizes one of the key elements.Therefore,certain views of history,research questions,research methods as well as theories,consisting of the methodology of the historical research,are to be considered,so as to make the study of history of translated literature fully show its academic profundity.In this case,the book Translation,Literature and Politics gives an example of how the methodology for the historical research can be applied to and forward the studies of history of translated literature.
