Picture writing and hieroglyphs are often seen as writing technologies that belong firmly to the past. But what does it mean to write in pictures, and how can a tradition of "picture writing" survive into the present day?

From the 1920s to the mid-20th century, the botanist/anthropologist Joseph Rock was the first to seriously study the Naxi pictographs of southwest China, a tradition he thought would disappear if he did not record it. In 1952 he made a dire prediction: "โ€œA very few years more and the Na-khi books will be undecipherableโ€ฆthey will remain closed books, no Rosetta stone would prove of value.โ€

The Megajournal project, spearheaded by the Chinese University Library and Chinese University Press, is also supported by the Faculty of Arts and the Department of Translation at CUHK.

The Journal of Translation Studies is still a bilingual, double-blind peer-reviewed publication, edited jointly by Lawrence Wong and Prof. James St. Andrรฉ, with an international editorial board. We publish two numbers per year, one in June, one in December, and accept papers on all aspects of translation studies.

We are also happy to arrange special issues. Contact us if you have a topic that you would like to guest edit with us.

The new online platform has all articles in the new series, as well as volumes 9โ€“14 of the first series; in other words, everything since 2006. The earlier volumes will be added gradually over the course of 2026.

If you have published an article with us, you may now distribute the final published version of your article freely anywhere you like.

If you have not yet published with us, now is a great time to submit your article for publication in an established, open-access journal at no cost.
