Abstract Qian Jin Yao Fang, one of the classics of Sun Simiao in Tang Dynasty, has high academic value. Till now, only three abridged English versions have been officially published, which are translated by scholar Ms. Sabine Wilms at Arizona State University in the United States. This paper analyzes the three versions, finding they are characterized by reasonable compilation, various translation, and detailed annotation. As to translation strategies, both “domestication” and “foreignization” are taken into account with specific translation methods such as transliteration, literal translation, and liberal translation, etc. Annotation methods like in-text citations, footnotes, and endnotes are also included. Despite occasional mistranslations and other considerable issues, these versions still retain important academic value. Through the analysis of translation ideas, strategies and methods of the three versions, this paper aims to offer references for the subsequent complete translation work on Qian Jin Yao Fang and the overseas dissemination of traditional Chinese medicine classics.
