Abstract: Translated literature is an important component of literature during the Anti-Japanese War in Yunnan. In the context of the Anti-Japanese War, Yunnan's translated literature conforms to the needs of society and the times, demonstrating distinct characteristics and fighting spirit of the times. At the same time, influenced by the aesthetic pursuits of translators and the demands of popular culture, some translated literary works emit a romantic and lyrical voice that is different from the mainstream of the times through the praise of beauty such as nature and love. The geographical location and peaceful cultural environment of Yunnan also contribute to the unique life experiences and philosophical reflections on survival that permeate Yunnan's translated literature. In the convergence of the wave of popularization of literature and art in political propaganda, Yunnan's translated literature is in line with Yunnan's regional culture, presenting diverse characteristics that resonate with the main theme and have local characteristics.
