- More about English Translations of Shuihu Zhuan: A Narratological Perspective
This book explores the intersection of translation and narration in literary translation, investigating how three translations of Shuihu Zhuan present the original narrative mode to different target audiences through four narrative elements: voice, commentary, point of view, and motif. It validates and quantifies the differences in strategy-making patterns between translators and between narratological categories, providing methodological and empirical support for further studies on shifts of narrative features in translation. It also sheds new light on the teaching and learning of translation skills and offers a valuable reference guide for scholars, practitioners, translators, and graduate students in various fields.

This book delves into the intricate interplay between translation and narration in literary translation, offering a fresh perspective by examining how three translations of Shuihu Zhuan present the original narrative mode to different target audiences across different historical periods. Through a comprehensive analysis of four narrative elements—voice, commentary, point of view, and motif—the book validates and quantifies the variations in strategy-making patterns between translators and across different narratological categories. By drawing upon established theoretical frameworks and collecting extensive data, the book provides valuable methodological and empirical support for further studies on the shifts of narrative features in translation. Moreover, the study's findings shed light on the tendencies exhibited by different translators, offering valuable insights into the teaching and learning of translation skills. This book serves as a valuable reference guide for scholars, practitioners, translators, and graduate students in the fields of language, translation, literature, cultural studies, as well as anyone with an interest in Chinese classical literature, Chinese-English translation, narrative studies, or cross-cultural studies.
