The author sees Yen’s translation, statement, and interpretation (hermeneutic) as interrelated speech acts and examines, from the perspective of rhetoric, Yen’s statements on and practices in translation-rhetoric that are dispersed in various texts. This study first investigates the discourse context within which Yen puts forth his translation-rhetoric statements and argues that, apart from the influence on traditional Chinese Confucian and Taoist views, these statements also reflect Western Enlightenment thinking on reason and sentiment. Secondly, the rela- tionship between name and essence, or word and reality, is one of the major concerns for Enlightenment thinkers, and dialectic of this sort is often seen in Yen’s translation-rhetoric statements and practices. This paper then explores the relationship between logos and Yen’s translation-rhetoric views,
