Review on Translation Studies of Red Sorghum
Journal Title: Saudi Journal of Humanities and Social Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 10
Abstract
Since the publication of Red Sorghum: A Novel of China translated by Howard Goldblatt, a great number of long and elaborate theses has sprung up. Theoretically, many theoretical viewpoints have been employed to analyze this novel, but in a cumbersome jumble. On the aspect of the selection of linguistic data, superficially distinctive linguistic units tend to be selected more frequently as the research subjects, while those representing the unique style of the original text are less likely to be comprehensively researched. Methodologically, subjective text analysis method takes the upper hand, while only a few scholars employ the objective and exhaustive methods. Keywords: Red Sorghum, Howard Goldblatt, Mo Yan, translation
