Title

Research on Translation of Expressions with Chinese Characteristics from the Perspective of Culture Turn Theory --Based on the Case Study of Xi Jinping: The Governance of China Ⅲ

Introduction

With the Reform and Opening-up and the enhancement of China’s strength, the international status of China has been improving significantly. In recent years, with going-global strategy and bringing-in strategy, China has been opening up widely and cooperated with other countries towards a shared future. Under this background, Chinese culture is an important part for China to communicate and cooperate with other countries. What’s more, Chinese Socialism in the New Era has attracted worldwide attention, as the academic circles are paying attention to the translation of expressions with Chinese characteristics in foreign publicity translation, especially for those political articles.

Expressions with Chinese characteristics refer to terms and expressions that have the characteristics of Chinese language and culture and that embody the unique things and phenomena in China. In recent years, more and more scholars have studied the English translation of expressions with Chinese characteristics, most of them use German Functionalist Translation Theory, especially Katharina Reiss’s text typology and Vermeer’s Skopos theory. I choose culture turn theory, for the reason that translating these expressions not only should pay attention to the current situation, but also should study in the broad history scope. So, I choose communicative translation theory and I will explore and analyze texts under the guidance of this theory, hoping to provide a new direction for the study of English translation of expressions with Chinese characteristics. (Tang, 2013:157-158)

Xi Jinping: The Governance of China Ⅲ contains a complication of 92 of Xi Jinping’s spoken and written works from October 18, 2017 to January 13, 2020. It is a series of articles put forward by Xi Jinping with many original ideas drawn from his experiences in the governance of China in the new era. In this book, there are many expressions with Chinese Characteristics, whose C-E translations are vital for the transmission of Chinese culture. Additionally, the third volume, published in 2020, is one of the latest materials for studying Chinese Socialism in the new era. (Xi, 2020: Introduction)

By learning the English version of some political writings and watching some videos on the Internet, I’m interested in the translation of expressions with Chinese characteristics. Also, I have learned a lot about Xi Jinping’s thought, which contains useful knowledge for the governance of China. As an English major, by studying the translation of expressions with Chinese characteristics, I can consolidate and deepen my understanding of professional theories and knowledge. Moreover, by studying and practicing different cultural corpora, my intercultural communication ability can get progress.

Literature Overview

Domestic scholars have made a lot of explorations on the English translation of terms with Chinese characteristics. There are two characteristics as a whole: first, some scholars summarized the appropriate translation strategies and methods by studying the English translation of current political terms and legal terms with Chinese characteristics, which are selected from the English versions of newspapers, political papers and other texts. (Yang, 2006:73-74; Wang, 2020:87-93; Tang, 2013:157-158) Second, under the guidance of particular translation theory, scholars analyzed and studied the English translation of Chinese vocabulary and current political terms selected from the speeches of Chinese leaders and other text in various aspects. For example, most scholars studied the English translation of terms with Chinese characteristics from the perspective of Skopos Theory and explored appropriate English translation strategies. (Lai, 2019：1-2)

As far as the domestic research status is concerned, there are still some deficiencies in the research of expressions with Chinese characteristics. First, the theory is relatively unitary. Most scholars use German Functionalist Translation Theory, especially Katharina Reiss’s text typology and Vermeer’s Skopos theory. Secondly, the research sample is limited. Most of the scholars talk about political and economic terms, while there is little research on the translation of classical culture terms with Chinese characteristics. The research on translation methods and strategies of political and economic terms is of little use for the whole translation of expressions with Chinese characteristics. Third, the research on “words with Chinese characteristics” is more than that of “expressions with Chinese characteristics”. When consulting references (June 9, 2021), we can find that there are 69 articles about “expressions with Chinese characteristics” and 484 about “words with Chinese characteristics”. It can be seen that most scholars have done a lot of research on the English translation of words with Chinese characteristics. We should pay more attention to the English translation of expressions with Chinese characteristics, and seek the best way to tell Chinese stories.

Brief Introduction to Culture Turn Theory

The cultural turn theory in translation research is to pay attention to the influence of various elements in the process of translation, the influence of the translator's own culture on the original text, and the study of the image of the original text in the context of the translated version. When concepts are transferred from one language to another, meaning is not so much “transformed”, it is better to say that it has been “recreated” in the regional environment of the latter. The main contents of Susan Bassnett’s cultural translation view include: translation should take culture as the unit, not stay on the previous text; Translation is not only a simple decoding and recoding process, but also an act of communication; Translation should not be limited to the description of the original text, but lies in the functional equivalence of the text in the target language culture; Different historical periods have different translation principles and norms, but these principles and norms are ultimately to meet different needs. Translation is to meet the needs of culture and different groups in a certain culture. (Wu, 2010:123-125)

The cultural turn theory studies translation from the perspective of translator’s subjectivity and target culture. It mainly aims at the cultural conflict in translation, solves the untranslatable problem in translation to some extent, awakens the cultural consciousness of the translation community, widens the research field of translation and adds a new dimension to translation research. (Wu, 2009:103-105)

Bassnett explicitly introduced the concept of culture into translation studies and proposed that the essence of literary translation is cultural translation. In literary translation, we should not only pay attention to the transformation and expression of text, semantics, rhetoric and style, but also consider the cultural differences between the source language and the target language, as well as the translator's position in translation. (Wu, 2010:123-125)

Brief Introduction of the Expressions with Chinese Characteristics and Xi Jinping: The Governance of China Ⅲ

Introduction of Expressions with Chinese Characteristics

Expressions with Chinese characteristics refer to the unique language expression forms of Chinese, which have the characteristics of Chinese language and culture, and reflect the national conditions and policies of China. Expressions with Chinese characteristics include some political and economic terms, idioms, poems, four-character phrases and expressions with distinctively Chinese national culture, which reflect the national policies, people’s life, culture and their values at that time. Expressions with Chinese characteristic are a unique language phenomenon in Chinese language and culture. In fact, it is highlighted in the process of cultural communication between China and foreign countries. These terms have rich cultural connotations and more distinctive political text features. (Wang, 2020:87-93; Tang, 2013:157-158)

According to the different stylistic features, the expressions with Chinese characteristics are divided into several categories, including political and economic terminology, literary quotations, four-character expressions and idioms and rhetoric expressions.

Political and economic terminology refers to the strategic principles reflecting China’s national conditions and terms with Chinese cultural characteristics. They contain many expressions about our Party’s policies, national interests, political propositions, territorial sovereignty, etc. To a certain extent, they represent the code of conduct and guiding plan issued by the state and the government in an authoritative and standardized way. There are many expressions in political and economic terminology with Chinese characteristics, such as phrases with symmetrical form and structure, abbreviations of numbers, new expressions issued by the government, expressions with communication effect, repetition and so on. (Ma, 2020:65-66)

Literary quotations mainly refer to ancient Chinese poetry and prose with rich cultural connotation. Literary quotations can describe something in a concise and vivid way, and they are rhythmic. The content is often a high degree of refinement and generalization of life, creating a beautiful artistic conception with rich imagination and association. The characters are vivid; the language rhythm is clear and harmonious.(Lai, 2019: 5-6)

Four-character expressions and idioms have a certain structure form and contain connotations. They often appear as a whole in sentences, such as subject, object, attribute and so on. The vast majority of four-character expressions and idioms have been used since ancient times. The usage of these expressions is often different from modern Chinese. They contain rich allusions and are frequently quoted in the state leaders’ speeches. Idioms are simple, profound, philosophical and easy to understand. They are stereotyped sentences, often with exhortation or educational significance. As one of the essences of national language and culture, they have rich cultural connotations. In persuasive speeches, these expressions can prove or summarize opinions, and most of them are created by the people and widely spread. They are colloquial, popular. (Lai, 2019: 5-6)

Rhetoric expressions refer to the sentences which are involved with the use of language skills, rules, ways or methods, such as pun, metaphor, personification, metonymy, exaggeration, contrast, etc. In political works, the use of rhetorical devices makes the text of the works more beautiful, more persuasive.

The features of expressions with Chinese Characteristic are as following: first, these expressions contain full of social-cultural implication and have richer features of the times. Second, there are no direct translation or equivalent translation of such expressions in English, which means that they are uniquely Chinese. Third, these expressions are concise and popular, which raise great discussion and appreciation after publication. Fourth, the range of expressions with Chinese characteristics is large, covering sectors such as politics, economy, culture, history, society and people’s daily life.(Tang, 2013:157-158)

Introduction of Xi Jinping: The Governance of China Ⅲ

Xi Jinping: The Governance of China Ⅲ contains a complication of 92 of Xi Jinping’s spoken and written works from October 18, 2017 to January 13, 2020, along with 41 photographs. It is divided into 19 sections by topic, with the articles in each section arranged in chronological order. For ease of reading, notes are to be found at the end of relevant articles. Xi Jinping: The Governance of China Ⅲ vividly recorded the process that since the 19th CPC National Congress, guided by the thought that is remaining true to the Party’s original aspiration and founding mission, the CPC Central committee, with Xi Jinping as its core, has fully considered the overall goal of national rejuvenation and the international situation in a context of change at a level unseen in a century, and has coordinated efforts on the great struggle, the great project, the great cause and the great dream. The third volume recorded the great practice which the CPC Central Committee, leads the whole party and whole country to make great progress in all fields of things, which shows the latest achievements of localization of Marxism in China. It has also contributed a Chinese perspective and Chinese ideas to promote the establishment of a global community of a shared future, and it is an authoritative book that reflects the Xi Jinping’s Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics. The publication of Xi Jinping: The Governance of China Ⅲ has helped officials and the public to understand and apply Xi Jinping’s Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, and to strengthen their commitment to the Four Consciousnesses, the Four-sphere Confidence and the Two Upholds, and to fight for the final victory in building a moderately prosperous society in all respects, and also to help the international community gain a full appreciation of the thought and the reasons for the success of the CPC, Marxism and Chinese Socialism. (Xi, 2020: Introduction)

As for the stylistic features of the English Version, the book contains a complication of 92 of Xi Jinping’s spoken and written works, which all belongs to the political writing. First of all, the principles of the political writing are faithfulness, accuracy, clarity and completeness, which means that the political writing should have formal and standard use of language in terms of vocabulary. Political writings focus on the logical clarity and precise reasoning, and should avoid ambiguity and vague expressions. Second, political writings mainly reflect the condition and development of our country, and are highly sensitive. When translating, they should not only be rigorous and faithful to the original text, but also represent the sovereignty and position of our country, and strive to convey the views and attitudes of our government completely and accurately.Third, the English version should accurately explain the essence of the original text, and it should conform to the expression habits of the English language. The translated text should conform to the using habits of the target language English, which can make it easier for foreigners to understand. (Tang, 2013:157-158)

Translation Analysis

The following part is the translation analysis according to the translation methods used by the translators.

Literal Translation

Literal translation is the translation of text from one language to another “word-for-word”, rather than giving the sense of the original. When using literal translation, we would remain the original style, which includes the original sentence structure and the figure of speech. (Xiong, 2014:82-88)

[Example 1]

[ST] 九二共识 (Xi, 2020: 5)

[TT] the 1992 Consensus (Xi, 2020:7)

[Comments] Here “九二共识” is literally rendered to “the 1992 Consensus”. Its core meaning is that the mainland and Taiwan province all belong to China, and the two sides of the Taiwan Strait are not the relationship of two countries, thus clearly defining the fundamental nature of cross-strait relations. This consensus has been defined for a long time, and become a common knowledge all over the world. Thus, we can render this literally, which is faithful not only to the form and structure of the original, but also to the meaning.

[Example 2]

[ST] 三农问题 (Xi, 2020:25)

[TT] issues relating to agriculture, rural areas, and rural people (Xi, 2020:33)

[Comments] Here “三农问题” is translated to literally and used the annotation as an extra information. “三农” is the abbreviation for “农业，农村，农民”, and they denote different meanings. Numeral Abbreviations contain rich cultural information and simplify language expression. In order to transfer the meaning completely, the translators use the literal translation method, which reproduces the national characteristics of the source culture. In addition, the annotation method is supplemented, which can eliminate the obstacles in cross-cultural understanding.

[Example 3]

[ST] 不要人夸颜色好，只留清气满乾坤。(Xi, 2020:67)

[TT] Not bent on praise for its bright colors, but on leaving its fragrance to all. (Xi, 2020:90)

[Comments] The poem is written by Wang Mian in the Yuan Dynasty, which refers that the plum blossom doesn’t need others to praise its color. What it cares about is to keep the light fragrance around the world. President Xi Jinping uses this poetry to express his ambition and chants the character of plum blossom. The translated version gets rid of the constraints of the structure and words of the original text, and it omits the name of plum blossom. However, it directly explains the true meaning of the original text and translates “清气” into fragrance. The translation is natural and fluent, which is not only consistent with the original text, but also conveys the cultural connotation of “work hard on one’s own and leave the good qualities to the world” expressed in the poem to foreign readers accurately.

[Example 4]

[ST] …哪怕刺耳、尖锐一些，我们也要采取闻过则喜的态度，做到有则改之、无则加勉。 (Xi, 2020:296)

[TT] Even if their comments are harsh and sharp, we should be glad to hear them, so that we can correct our mistakes if we have made any and guard against them if we have not. (Xi, 2020:346)

[Comments] The translators add some adjectives and expand a word to a full sentence. The four-character expressions in China have meaningful connotations. When translating, the translators need to add some detailed information to help the understandings of the targeted readers. Therefore, the translators use addition to supplement the whole meaning, which is easy for foreigners to understand.

Free Translation

Free translation is the translation by meanings. That is, the translation is done according to the real meanings of a sentence or even a paragraph, instead of completely word to word. When using free translation, people usually pay little attention to the form and style of the original text. Instead, they would think of the original meaning carefully. In order to use free translation effectively, the translator should know the culture of original text and targeted text well, and have an extensive knowledge about them. (Xiong, 2014:82-88)

[Example 1]

[ST] 四风 (Xi, 2020:95)

[TT] Four Malfeasances for favoring from over substance, bureaucratism, hedonism, and extravagance (Xi, 2020:119)

[Comments] Here “四风” is the abbreviation for four problems happening in the leading group and it is harmful. “风” here is not the wind in English, instead it is a metaphor, which means that the bad habits or problems in the leading group can be spread quickly if not solved in a proper way. The translators use “malfeasance”, which can translate the meaning correctly; and they add some details to the translated version, from which the foreign readers can understand the meaning effectively.

[Example 2]

[ST] 恩德相结者，谓之知己；腹心相照者，谓之知心。(Xi, 2020:398)

[TT] People drawn to each other by kindness and virtues make good friends; people who hold together with a meeting of minds make bosom friends. (Xi, 2020:462)

[Comments] It is a typical example of Classical Chinese, which is different from today’s Mandarin and has full potential meaning for each word. So, the translator used paraphrase to explain the sentence, which can remove obscurities in the understandings to the original text and can create a communicative effect to the targeted readers.

[Example 3]

[ST] 生搬硬套或强加于人都会引起水土不服。(Xi, 2020:458)

[TT] Blindly copying the models of others will only be counterproductive (Xi, 2020:532)

[Comments] Here “水土不服” refers that a person cannot understand the weather condition and eating habits of one place. President Xi compares it to the unsuitable strategies used by some official people. The translators shift the original noun form into a clause, which is easy to understand. In this way, the translated version suits the habits of English expression, and would not cause misunderstandings to the targeted readers.

[Example 4]

[ST] 打好改革组合拳 (Xi, 2020:108)

[TT] forge a synergy (Xi, 2020:133)

[Comments] Here “打好改革组合拳” contains a figure of speech, metaphor, which compares the combination of several plans to the complete set of martial arts, the Chinese boxing. The translators omit the Chinese boxing, instead, they use “synergy”, which refers to the extra energy, power, success, etc. that is achieved by two or more people or companies working together, instead of on their own, which conforms to the meaning that our Chinese people work together to achieve the prosperity and success of the Reform and Opening-up. However, in this way, this kind of translation suits the goal well, but loses the cultural meaning.

Recreation

Recreation refers to a translation method that the translator decontextualizes the meaning and form of the original text and creatively reprocesses the original text in order to achieve a certain translation purpose (such as meeting the specific needs of the target audience). (Xiong, 2014:82-88)

[Example 1]

[ST] 我将无我，不负人民。(Xi, 2020:144)

[TT] Never fail the people. (Xi, 2020:170)

[Comments] It is a sentence spoken by Xi Jinping in March, 2019 when he made a state visit to Italy. At that time, Italy’s speaker of the House of Representatives asked Xi Jinping what he was feeling when he was elected as the president of China. Here “我将无我, 不负人民” is Xi Jinping’s deepest expression of affection for the Chinese people and his firm declaration as a national leader for the country and people. “我将无我, 不负人民” is a kind of political words, which mainly reflect the position and development of our country. When translating, it should not only be faithful to the original text, but also be flexible. We should strive to convey China’s sovereignty completely and accurately. As for the translated version, “Never fail the people” spreads the meaning effectively and the targeted readers can understand the sentence accurately.

Culture Replacement

Culture Replacement refers to replace the source text with some similar expressions in English because of language differences between English and Chinese. In essence, culture replacement belongs to the category of free translation and is one of the closest ways to the target language readers’ understanding. Using this method can not only convey the meaning of the source language, but also facilitate the understanding of the target language readers. (Xiong, 2014:82-88)

[Example 1]

[ST] 天网恢恢，疏而不漏。(Xi, 2020:511)

[TT] Justice has long arms. (Xi, 2020:592)

[Comments] In this sentence, there is no equivalent meaning for “天网恢恢，疏而不漏” in English, so the translators use “Justice has long arms”, which is an English idiom, as a replacement. This kind of translation not only retains the original meaning, but also conforms to the English expression habits.

Through text analysis, we can find that for these four categories, the literal translation can remain the original form and structure well to some extent, but also remains some obstacles for the targeted readers. In translating expressions with Chinese characteristics in the political essays, we should consider several aspects, such as politics, accuracy, purpose, and make a true arrangement to these aspects. So, the translated version should follow these rules and be rendered well. For those selected expressions, they are all selected from the political papers and essays whose purpose for translation was mainly about spreading the messages. So, for those expressions with Chinese characteristics, sometimes their Chinese characteristics will be omitted, which remains to be discussed and solved in the future.

An Analysis from the Perspective of the Cultural Turn Theory

The Background and Social Situation

According to the cultural turn theory, when translating the original texts, we should pay attention to the context. The scholars Bassnett and Levefere advocated to pay attention to social context, history instead of formalism stage. In the process of spreading Chinese culture, the transformation of expressions with Chinese characteristics has the particularity of time, space and society, which requires to have the correspondence of the particular expressions in the contexts. When translating, not only should we pay attentions to the coordination between language symbols and political implication, but also should focus on the coordination of domestic and international context. After analyzing the expressions with Chinese characteristics in Xi Jinping: The Governance of China Ⅲ, we can find that the expressions should be translated accurately according to the original meaning conveyed by the government. (Zhang, 2021:77-88)

The Translators

Bassnett pointed out that translation, like poetry or novels, cannot have the best version, and the evaluation of a translation can only be based on the purpose, function and process of translation in a specific context. Therefore, when evaluating or analyzing a translated version, we should consider the translator’s purpose, translation function and other factors in its specific context. Therefore, even if the same text is translated, the translator's translation strategies will change dynamically with the change of translation purpose. Compared with other types of text translators, translators of foreign political discourse are generally institutional groups to which the government belongs. The English translation of Volume Ⅲ is organized and coordinated by the national foreign language Bureau and completed by a certain number of translation experts at home and abroad. The translation strategies adopted should focus on the purpose of foreign publicity. Therefore, the English translation of foreign publicity in Volume Ⅲ should also keep pace with the times. Besides, the core terms should also conform to the English narrative habits and methods. (Zhang, 2021:77-88)

The Targeted Readers

By improving the language collocation in line with the acceptance habits of English readers, strengthening the connotation free translation and information supplementary translation of words with Chinese characteristics, improving wording expression and other translation strategies, so as to improve the readers’ accurate access to the original information, so as to improve the overseas readers’ cognition of the core ideas and views of China’s development. The translated version strives to target the English audience in terms of expression, follow the rules of English language rhetoric, and provide readers with the context of understanding Chinese social and cultural knowledge to the greatest extent.(Zhang, 2021:77-88)

Conclusion

This article attempted to explore the Chinese to English translation of expressions with Chinese Characteristics from the cultural turn theory. It is necessary and practicable to carry out such a study in which the cultural turn theory is applied to the translation of expressions with Chinese Characteristics.

Based on the cultural turn theory, this article focused on the translation of four types of text - political and economic terminology, literary quotations, four-character expressions and idioms and rhetoric expressions. Large quantities of examples are extracted from Xi Jinping: The Governance of China III and analyzed. Through detailed analysis, the use of various kinds of translation methods can be applied to the translation of expressions with Chinese characteristics under the guidance of the cultural turn theory. These translation methods include literal translation, free translation, recreation, paraphrase, addition, combination, shift, omission, and so on. Among these translation methods and strategies, their advantages and disadvantages are obviously lying on several aspects, like the conveyed meaning, original forms and structures, the specific Chinese character and corresponding English expressions etc.

The Chinese to English translation of expressions with Chinese characteristics is important for spreading Chinese culture and communicating with other culture in today’s cross-culture circumstance. In order to achieve this goal, the translator should have a deep understanding towards Chinese culture and foreign culture, which includes the social background, language usage etc. Moreover, the translator should understand the potential meaning conveyed from the original texts and choose the suitable translation methods and strategies, thus transferring the message accurately and fluently to the targeted readers. However, there are some limitations in this translation study.

First of all, the translation methods and strategies discussed in the chapter four are limited. Therefore, the analysis may not be comprehensive and would neglect some important ways of translation. Second, the author’s own limitation of knowledge to the professional field to some degree leads to inconvenience and difficulty in thesis writing. In addition, the translation study about Xi Jinping: The Governance of China III is limited; the author can only get the relative message from studies on foreign publicity translation. Due to the limitations of this translation study, there are some suggestions.

First, the merits and demerits of the selected translation theory should be fully understood. When analyzing the translation methods under the guidance of the designated theories, the author should make full consideration and try to find new ideas in the field of translation study. Second, the author should be careful for the features of these expressions with Chinese characteristics.

After all, this translation study is only an attempt to use the cultural turn theory into the translation of expressions with Chinese characteristics. Due to the limited space here, the study could not cover all the aspects and make a comprehensive analysis. Many problems and issues remain to be solved in the future.
