Chinese Academic Translation Project Granted National Social Science Fund of China

I had the distinguished opportunity to serve as the fourth author in a nationally-recognized academic translation project, supported by the National Social Science Fund of China. This significant endeavor revolved around the "Chinese Academic Translation" initiative, focusing on the English translation of select chapters from Professor Dong Naibin's seminal work, "Research on Chinese Literary Narrative Traditions". My specific involvement encompassed the translation and analytical interpretation of cultural nuances within Chapter 7, titled "Narrative Features of Tang Dynasty Prose-Poetry (Fu)", and Chapter 8, "A Comprehensive Review on Ancient Chinese Prose Narration". This experience offered a profound insight into the rich tapestry of China's literary narrative traditions, emphasizing the intricate challenge of translating culturally-laden terms from Chinese to English while retaining their inherent essence and significance.
