Description

Explore the complexities of translating Chinese drama with this scholarly study from Routledge. This book provides an in-depth application of Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) to the study of Chinese drama translation. By examining the theoretical interface between SFL and drama, the text offers a unique perspective for students and professionals in the field of linguistics and translation studies. Authors Bo Wang and Yuanyi Ma investigate two specific English translations of Lao She's famous drama, Teahouse (Cha Guan). The research analyzes the work of translators John Howard-Gibbon and Ying Ruocheng. Through the lens of Systemic Functional Linguistics, the authors point out the specific linguistic choices made during the translation process. This academic resource is an essential addition to the Routledge Studies in Chinese Translation series, offering a detailed look at how language functions within theatrical works.
