  • A Study of Modality System in Chinese-English Legal Translation from the Perspective of SFG*
    ISSN 1799-2591 Theory and Practice in Language Studies, Vol. 4, No. 3, pp. 497-503, March 2014 © 2014 ACADEMY PUBLISHER Manufactured in Finland. doi:10.4304/tpls.4.3.497-503 A Study of Modality System in Chinese-English Legal Translation from the Perspective of SFG* Zhangjun Lian School of Foreign Languages, Southwest University, Chongqing, China Ting Jiang School of Foreign Languages, Chongqing University, Chongqing, China Abstract—As a special genre, legislative discourse reflects the power of a state through the usage of unusual forms of expressions in choosing words and making sentences. Based on the theory of modality in Systemic Functional Grammar (SFG) and the theory of legislative language in forensic linguistics, this study is designed to analyze the modality system in English translation of Chinese legislative discourses in its attempt to explore its translation problems. Through qualitative and quantitative analyses with the aid of Parallel Corpus of China’s Legal Documents, it is found that there are three prominent anomic features in English translation of modality system in Chinese legislative discourses. These features reveal that translators of Chinese legislative discourse pursue language diversity at the cost of accuracy and authority of the law. A summary of some tactics and suggestions are also presented to deal with the translation of modality system in Chinese legislative discourses from Chinese into English. Index Terms— modality system, Chinese legislative discourses, Systemic Functional Grammar (SFG) I. INTRODUCTION Translation of Chinese laws and regulations is an important component of international exchange of Chinese legal culture. Based on the theoretical ideas of functional linguistics, translation is not only a pure interlingual conversion activity, but, more important, “a communicative process which takes place within a social context” (Hatim & Mason, 2002, p.

  • Social Mobility in China, 1645-2012: a Surname Study Yu (Max) Hao and Gregory Clark, University of California, Davis [email protected], [email protected] 11/6/2012
    Social Mobility in China, 1645-2012: A Surname Study Yu (Max) Hao and Gregory Clark, University of California, Davis [email protected], [email protected] 11/6/2012 The dragon begets dragon, the phoenix begets phoenix, and the son of the rat digs holes in the ground (traditional saying). This paper estimates the rate of intergenerational social mobility in Late Imperial, Republican and Communist China by examining the changing social status of originally elite surnames over time. It finds much lower rates of mobility in all eras than previous studies have suggested, though there is some increase in mobility in the Republican and Communist eras. But even in the Communist era social mobility rates are much lower than are conventionally estimated for China, Scandinavia, the UK or USA. These findings are consistent with the hypotheses of Campbell and Lee (2011) of the importance of kin networks in the intergenerational transmission of status. But we argue more likely it reflects mainly a systematic tendency of standard mobility studies to overestimate rates of social mobility. This paper estimates intergenerational social mobility rates in China across three eras: the Late Imperial Era, 1644-1911, the Republican Era, 1912-49 and the Communist Era, 1949-2012. Was the economic stagnation of the late Qing era associated with low intergenerational mobility rates? Did the short lived Republic achieve greater social mobility after the demise of the centuries long Imperial exam system, and the creation of modern Westernized education? The exam system was abolished in 1905, just before the advent of the Republic. Exam titles brought high status, but taking the traditional exams required huge investment in a form of “human capital” that was unsuitable to modern growth (Yuchtman 2010).
