The creators of British and American literature will integrate certain cultural background into their literary works, and the author's thoughts and views are also deeply influenced by British and American culture. Therefore, when translating British and American literature, the translator must take into account the differences between Chinese and western cultures and accurately translate the contents with cultural differences so that people can have a deeper understanding of the original works. By analyzing the influence of cultural differences in the translation of British and American literature, this paper discusses the translation methods of literary works under different cultural backgrounds, so as to provide reference for the translation of British and American literary works in the future.
