Translation Strategies of Chinese Classical Traditions under the Perspective of Multimodal Discourse

Abstract

Chinese traditional classics, with their vast corpus, profound depth, and enduring legacy, constitute a vital foundation for enhancing
cultural soft power. Multimodal discourse theorya novel and highly practical translation frameworkprovides theoretical support for globalizing China's classical heritage. However, current research reveals a notable gap in translation strategies for these classics within the multimodal discourse paradigm. This study adopts the Chinese adaptation of "The Injustice to Dou E" (translated by Yang Xianyi and Dai Naidai)
as a case study, aiming to bridge this knowledge gap and contribute to the global dissemination and development of China's cultural treasures.
