Abstract：The “hybridity theory”, proposed by Homi Bhabha, claims that there is no absolute domestication or foreignization, because all translated versions are hybrid texts and the difference lies in the degree of hybridity. Hong Lou Meng is a fairy blossom in the garden of world literature. This thesis explored the hybridity in Hong Lou Meng by comparing and analyzing the two versions and pointed out that both of the Yangs’version and Hawkes’ are hybrid texts whose degrees of hybridity is different. Generally speaking, the Yangs’ version contains higher degree of hybridity than Hawkes’. But it does not mean that the higher the degree of hybridity it has, the better the translation is, and that a good translation should involve an appropriate proportion of hybridity. Conclusively, these two versions are both successful translated works, which bridge the gap between the Chinese and western culture, and the translators of the two versions have made great contributions to the cultural communication between China and the West world.
