Weโre thrilled to celebrate the publication of two new books by Professor Lawrence Wang-chi Wong, recently released by Shanghai Oriental Press.
The first is a revised edition of his well-known study of the principle of โxin, da, yaโ (faithfulness, expressiveness, and elegance). First published in 1999, the book has long been regarded as a foundational text in Chinese translation studies. This new edition revisits the original work, with updates and revisions that reflect Professor Wongโs continued engagement with the subject over the years.
The second book grows out of his more recent research on translation and diplomacy in the Qing dynasty. Focusing on Sino-British relations, it explores how translation worked in practiceโin negotiations, official correspondence, and diplomatic exchangesโand what that meant for relations between China and Britain at the time.
Congratulations to Professor Wong on this outstanding achievement!
