滚滚长江东逝水，浪花淘尽英雄。

是非成败转头空，青山依旧在，几度夕阳红。

白发渔樵江渚上，惯看秋月春风。

一壶浊酒喜相逢，古今多少事，都付笑谈中。

Waves upon waves the Yangtze River rushes on its eastbound way,

Its white crests wash away all the heroes, valiant and brave.

Right or wrong, triumph or defeat, all is forgotten in the blink of an eye.

What remains only are the hills, so green

And the glow of the sunset, so red.

To the river banks come the white-haired fisherman and woodsman,

Enough have they seen of spring wind and autumn moon.

Over a jar of wine, they rejoice at their happy meeting.

Alas, so many great events of past and present,

Serve but as food for their talk and laughter.

         The Three Kingdoms, which manifests the highest accomplishment of classical Chinese historical novel, is the most vivid literary representation of ancient Chinese politics and culture. The story encodes the ebb and flow of empires, the calculations and strategies of politics, the maneuver and logistics of military science, the legends and sagas of heroes, the opaqueness and ambiguousness of events, the unpredictability and uncertainty of fate, the complexity and complication of humanity into the intensive, tortuous, exciting and attractive war narration. The story is an encyclopedia of Chinese wisdom as well as the collective cultural memory of the Chinese-speaking world. It has proved itself as timeless and inspirational. Prof. Yu Sumei’s translation is both faithful to the original text and readable to English readers. In loyal but flexible, natural yet lifelike language, the translator brings to the readers of the English world the weight and brilliance of Chinese Homeric epics and War and Peace. 

——上海外国语大学查明建教授

        The Three Kingdoms, a household classic novel in China, poses a tremendous challenge to any aspiring translators, as it contains a huge number of personages against complicated historical and social backgrounds, amid shifting battle situations with different local colors. And one thing that would frequently tax the translators’ wisdom throughout the gigantic story is that numerous connotations are hidden in the sea of Chinese metaphors and classic idioms. Despite all this, Professor Yu Sumei offers a noble and idiomatic English version of the great novel through ingenious strategies and tactics. This wonderful translation, with its lucid and succinct style, would, I believe, win the hearts of the English readers.
