This corpus-based study investigates the use of nominalization in
English translations of Chinese literary prose through the analysis
of three English versions of the Chinese novel Hong Lou Meng (Dream
of the Red Chamber). Previous studies have explored the relevance
of the cultural and linguistic positioning of different
translators, but thus far no corpus-based study of nominalization
has been undertaken in relation to translator style. This book uses
quantitative and qualitative analyses of the nominalized transform
of finite verbal forms in three Chinese-to-English translations to
distinguish between translator styles, concluding that
nominalization is a key identifier in translations. This book
provides a comprehensive picture of the use of nominalization in
English translations of Chinese literary prose and, more generally,
encourages further study into nominalization in translation.
