His life was full of legends, and he left a colorful stroke in the history of Buddhist scripture translation, and made a significant contribution to the translation of Buddhist scriptures in China. The quality and quantity of his translation achievements are rare in ancient and modern times, and his translation views in the process of translation of Buddhist scriptures have also deeply influenced modern translation theories. This paper gives a brief introduction of the translation theory and Xuanzang's life.
