Translation
Thinking Chinese Translation
is a practical and comprehensive course for
advanced undergraduates and postgraduate students of Chinese.
Thinking Chinese Translation
explores the ways in which memory, general
knowledge, and creativity (summed up as ‘schema’) contribute to the linguistic
ability necessary to create a good translation. The course develops the reader’s
ability to think deeply about the texts and to produce natural and accurate
translations from Chinese into English.
A wealth of relevant illustrative material is presented taking the reader
through a number of different genres and text types of increasing complexity
including:
●
Technical, scientiﬁ c and legal texts
●
Journalistic and informative texts
●
Literary and dramatic texts.
Each chapter provides a discussion of the issues of a particular text type
based on up-to-date scholarship, followed by practical translation exercises.
The chapters can be read independently as research material, or in combination
with the exercises. The issues discussed range from the ﬁ ne detail of the text,
such as punctuation, to the broader context of editing, packaging and pub-
lishing translations. Major aspects of teaching and learning translation, such
as collaboration, are also covered.
Thinking Chinese Translation
is essential reading for advanced undergraduate
and postgraduate students of Chinese and translation studies. The book will
also appeal to a wide range of language students and tutors through the
general discussion of the principles and purpose of translation.
