Focusing on transculturality, this edited volume explores how the
role of translation and the idea of (un)translatability in the
transformative complementation of different civilizations
facilitates the transcultural connection between Chinese and other
cultures in the modern era. Bringing together established
international scholars and emerging new voices, this collection
explores the linguistic, social, and cultural implications of
translation and transculturality. The 13 chapters not only discuss
the translation of literature, but also break new ground by
addressing the translation of cinema, performance, and the visual
arts, which are active bearers of modern and contemporary culture
that are often neglected by academics. Through an engagement with
these diverse fields, the title aims not only to reflect on how
translation has reproduced values, concepts, and cultural forms,
but also to stimulate the emergence of new possibilities in the
dynamic transcultural interplay between China and the diverse
national, cultural-linguistic, and contexts of Europe, the
Americas, and Asia. It shows how cultures have been appropriated,
misunderstood, transformed, and reconstructed through processes of
linguistic mediation, as well as how knowledge, understanding, and
connections have been generated through transculturality. The book
will be a must read for scholars and students of translation
studies, transcultural studies, and Chinese studies.
