This book presents a systematic investigation into the pivotal role of translation in communicating China’s sociocultural engagement with global communities throughout its modern and contemporary historical trajectory.
Adopting a multidisciplinary lens spanning media studies, performative arts, cultural historiography, literary criticism, and political discourse analysis, the book interrogates how translational practices have functioned as dynamic conduits for cross-cultural exchange across multiple domains, including: cinematic adaptation, theatrical performance systems, intellectual paradigm shifts, literary canon formation, geopolitical rhetoric, sinological scholarship, digital mediation, and state-sponsored cultural initiatives.
Highlighting the significance of translation in shaping the international circulation, reception, and negotiation of Chinese knowledge and culture, this book will be a valuable resource for students and scholars of translation studies as well as those of Chinese literature, culture and society.
