Description

This book provides an overview of the research carried out by Chinese scholars in the field of literary translation.

Although literary translation accounts for a small percentage of the translations produced every year, the interest into its cultural and historical significance continues to attract the interest of academics, notably in China.

The contributors to the book engage in theoretical discussions, compare source and target texts, discuss the role of patronage and analyze the translation of unique cultural artefacts such as Chinese calligraphy.

Their approaches range from the use of corpus-based studies to the use of mixed quantitative and qualitative methods to compare readers' views.

This book will be of interest to researchers and advanced students of Linguistics, Literature, Translation Studies, and Cultural Studies.

It was originally published as a special issue of the journal Perspectives: Studies in Translation Theory and Practice.
