1 Introduction
1。1 Research Background
As China is receiving more and more attention from the world, a good and correct translation of China’s publicity materials serves as a significant role in promoting understanding and cooperation in the international community。 In recent years, due attention has been paid to the connections between translation and communication science in Chinese academic circle。 Although the current communication theory has vastly broadened the vision of translation research, a systematic theoretical support for translation study is still urgent。 Based on this 5W communication model and some related research done at home and abroad, this thesis will take some specific C-E translation examples in the book, Xi Jinping: The Governance of China, and analyses different communication elements embodied in different translation strategies so as to achieve an effective communication。From+优!尔.YouErw.com 加QQ75201`8766
1。2 Research Object——Xi Jinping: The Governance of China
Xi Jinping: The Governance of China, is a compilation of Xi Jinping’s major works from November 15, 2012 to June 13, 2014, with all together 79 pieces, arranged in 18 chapters, including speeches, talks, interviews, instructions, and correspondence。 Best translators from CCCPC Party Literature Research Office and China International Publishing Group are engaged in translation of this book, and the English version has gone through repeated revisions before it is finally nailed down。 So the translation quality of this book is guaranteed and it provides useful guidance for the international publicity translation。 Shortly after its publishing, the book has aroused a strong response among the domestic and international society。 According to Guan’s (2015) investigation, by the end of early June, 2015, the global circulation has exceeded 4。5 million, of which the overseas distribution reaches over 400,000, covering more than 30 countries and regions。 The great success of the book is closely related to its efficient translation。 Therefore, based on an overall picture of communication studies and using the 5W model for reference as well as some related research done at home and abroad, this thesis takes some specific C-E translation examples in this book to offer pragmatic guidance and strategies for C-E international publicity translation。 从传播学5W模式探讨外宣翻译技巧(2):http://www.youerw.com/yingyu/lunwen_143824.html
