"This volume brings together some of the latest research by scholars from the UK,
Taiwan, and Hong Kong to examine a variety of issues relating to the history of translation
between China and Europe, aimed at increasing dialogue between Chinese studies and
translation studies. Covering the nineteenth century to the present, the essays tackle
a number of important issues, including the role of relay translation, hybridity and
transculturation, methods for the incorporation of foreign words and concepts, the
problems entailed by the importation of foreign paradigms and epistemes, the role
of public institutions, the issue of agency, and the role of metaphors to conceptualize
translation. By examining the dissemination of certain key terms from the West to
the East, often through pivotal languages, and by laying bare the transformation of
knowledge conveyed through these terms, the essays go well beyond the 'difference
and similarity' comparison model in the investigation of East-West relations, demonstrating
that transcultural hybridity is a more meaningful topic to pursue. Moreover, they
demonstrate how the translator, always working simultaneously under several domestic
and foreign institutions, needs to resort to 'selection, deletion and compromise',
in other words personal free choice, when negotiating among institutional powers."--Publisher's
