Translation has been instrumental in opening the door between China and the rest of the world from ancient times to the present day, and has helped facilitate cultural exchange and the sharing of knowledge. This book makes and important contribution to the study of translation into and from Chinese. A wide range of topics are covered, such as Chinese canonization of Buddhism, Chinese cultural identity and authenticity in translation, Chinese poetry, opera, politics and ideology in translation, and the individual contributions made by translators to modernity and globalisation. The analyses and arguments offered by the authors make this book a must read for anyone interested in translation from a Chinese perspective.

Industry Reviews

This book provides a wealth of information on how modern Chinese translation evolves from a unique tradition of its own, through mediation with both source texts and target texts and through literary and religious works over the centuries. It not only analyzes a number of questions regarding translation in China from multiple perspectives, but also helps the reader better understand the relationship between cultural translation and the phenomenon of Chinese modernity.
