Divided into three parts, nine chapters feature close readings of translated texts, micro-studies of how three translations came into being, and broad-based surveys that inquire into the causes of historical change. Among the specific questions addressed are: What stylistic, generic, and discursive permutations were undergone by Chinese texts as they crossed linguistic borders? Who were the main agents in this centuries-long effort to transmit Chinese culture to the West? How did readership considerations affect the form that particular translations take? More generally, the contributors are concerned with the relevance of current research paradigms, like those of World Literature, transcultural reception, and the rewriting of translation history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>CONTENTS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">1 Introduction: Translation Histories, Micro and Macro<br \/>Leo Tak-hung Chan and Zong-qi Cai<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Part 1 Texts in History<br \/>2 The \u201cDouble Effect\u201d of Translation in Jean-Pierre Abel-R\u00e9musat\u2019s Iu-Kiao-Li<br \/>Daniel M.
