International Journal of English Literature and Social Sciences, 5(5) Sep-Oct 2020 |Available online: https://ijels.com/ The Translation and Dissemination of Chu Ci in Europe Nan Chen, Chuanmao Tian School of Foreign Studies, Yangtze University, Hubei, 434023 PRC China Abstract—This paper combs through the translation and dissemination forms of Chu Ci in Europe from the perspective of time. Before the twentieth century is the early stage and its major dissemination form develops from reference translation to systemic one. Representative works of this stage includes the translation of Pfizmaier and Denys. The modern stage is divided by the first half of the twentieth century and Chu Ci began to treated as an subject in European Universities. Research perspectives on Chu Ci started to expand. From the later half of twentieth century to the presentis the contemporary stage.Complete translation versions of Chu Ci had appeared. Eastern Europe emerged as a new force in the translation of Chu Ci. At the end, major translation achievements and research angles will be summarized. Keywords—Chu Ci; translation; Europe; Sinology. I. INTRODUCTION of Chu Ci in Europe will also be involved. Unlike The Book of Songs and The Analects of Confucius, which are Chinese famous classic literature, the translation II. THE EARLY STAGE:FROM REFERENCE and dissemination of Chu Ci are less concentrated in TRANSLATION TO SYSTEMIC TRANSLATION Europe(Guo 2013; Wei 2014; Yan 2013; Guo & Cao 2014). When it comes to the origin of the translation and Early work in the translation study of Chu Ci tended to focus dissemination in Europe, there are always different voices. -

ROCZNIK ORIENTALISTYCZNY, T. LXXII, Z. 2, 2019, (s. 152–164) DOI 10.24425/ro.2019.132996 HARTMUT WALRAVENS (Staatsbibliothek Berlin, Germany) The Manchu Collection in the Jagiellonian University Library Abstract The present paper describes the Manchu Collection in the Jagiellonian University Library in Cracow which was a part of the former Prussian State Library in Berlin. The historical Manchu collection comprised over 300 items (call numbers, including “duplicates” of the same title). The paper offers a historical sketch of the forming of the collection as well as short description of some interesting items. Keywords: Manchu, book collection, Prussian State Library in Berlin, Jagiellonian Library A considerable portion of the collections of the former Prussian State Library (today: Berlin State Library, Prussian Cultural Foundation) was moved away from Berlin and stored for safekeeping in castles and mansions East of the Oder River during World War II. After the War, this territory became Polish and the books came into the custody of the Jagiellonian University Library where they are still today. This was fortunate because the collection escaped destruction and neglect. “Collection” here just means “a large number of books”, not books on the same subject. Thus it was not the complete older Manchu section that found its way to Cracow – another portion was stored in the Western zones, still another part in the Russian zone of post-war Germany. Eventually, the Manchu books were consolidated in Marburg (West Germany, later transferred to West Berlin), and East Berlin (German State Library, GDR). The surviving catalogue files were kept in East Berlin, and during the period of cold war access to this important information was practically impossible. -

Chuang Tzu in Germany: the Redirection of Chinese Literary Classics “Going Global”
Vol. 7 No. 1 Language and Semiotic Studies Spring 2021 Chuang Tzu in Germany: The Redirection of Chinese Literary Classics “Going Global” Xinwen Yang Soochow University, China Abstract As the quintessence of traditional Chinese culture, Chuang Tzu and other Chinese literary classics have been translated and introduced to many Western countries in succession, arousing Western attention and thoughts on Chinese culture. Since Chuang Tzu was introduced to Germany by sinologists and missionaries at the end of the nineteenth century, it has triggered a continuous upsurge of interest in its reading and research, which has solidified into a spiritual mirror aimed at fully representing traditional Chinese culture. From this translation and research history of Chuang Tzu in Germany, a general pattern of “translation lagging behind research” is illustrated. In this process, Germany’s interpretation and acceptance of Chuang Tzu is not only conducted from the perspective of literature and philosophy, but widely extends to other academic realms, including natural science, highlighting its distinct “fusion” and “cross-boundary” features. Examining the cross-cultural presentation and reappearance of Chuang Tzu in Germany is of great enlightening significance to the construction of a translation model for Chinese classics. Thus, a cooperative translation model in which domestic translators and foreign sinologists can draw on each other’s unique strengths during communication could be built. To this end, in the selection of translated classics, translators should pay attention to their own compatibility with the cultural background of the target countries to avoid invalid translation, which might even cause cultural conflicts. Consequently, the translation of Chinese classics will be shifted closer towards their purest original intended purposes. -
A Forerunner of German Colonialism
Biography and the Making of Transnational Imperialism: Karl Gützlaff on the China Coast, 1831–1851 Thoralf Klein Loughborough University, Loughborough, UK Correspondence: [email protected] This essay challenges the ‘methodological territorialism’ and ‘methodological nationalism’ prevalent in recent studies of imperial biographies, examining the role of the German Karl Friedrich August Gützlaff (1801–1851) in establishing a transnational form of free-trade imperialism in China. A native of Prussia and a missionary by training, Gützlaff was first posted in the Netherlands East Indies before associating himself with British interests on the China coast. However, his loyalty was not limited to one imperialist power. In the 1840s, Gützlaff promoted German trade with China, and at certain points of time he also supported American as well as Scandinavian interests. In addition to making a name for himself as a cultural broker and promoter of free trade and diplomatic representation, he also became involved with various forms of imperialism, from the more fluid commercial variant to the more formalised power structures of territorial rule. The case of Gützlaff therefore lends itself to a reflection about the permeable and shifting boundaries of empires. Moreover, it calls for a reassessment of German imperialism in the period before 1871, showing how Germany’s involvement with ‘Western’ global expansion was palpable and not merely confined to the realm of colonial fantasy. Keywords: Karl Gützlaff; biography; transnational history; imperialism; China; empire; Hong Kong; Britain; Germany; German colonial history; cultural broker The ‘imperial turn’ of the last 20 or so years has brought about a new approach to the writing of imperial biography. -
Zur Geschichte Der Sinologie Im Deutschsprachigen Raum Von Hartmut Walravens
Zur Geschichte der Sinologie im deutschsprachigen Raum von Hartmut Walravens Bei der Gründung der Deutschen Morgenländischen Gesellschaft 1845 waren zwei Vertreter der Sinologie und Zentralasienwissenschaften beteiligt, Carl Friedrich Neumann und Hans Conon von der Gabelentz, die in der Folge auch in der Zeitschrift der Gesellschaft publizierten, wie sie auch bereits bei der Vorgängerin, der Zeitschrift für die Kunde des Morgenlandes, Pate gestanden hatten. In der Folge entwickelte sich die Sinologie zu einer bedeutenden Sektion innerhalb der DMG, wenn auch mit einem Zeitverzug gegenüber den älteren etablierten Fächern. Hier sind besonders die Namen Erich Haenisch, Werner Eichhorn, Wolfgang Bauer, Günther Debon und Herbert Franke, der 1965 bis 1971 1. Vorsitzender der DMG war, zu nennen. So wird im Folgenden ein Überblick über die Entwicklung des Faches gegeben, wobei es manche Berührungspunkte mit der DMG gibt, auch wenn sie aus Raumgründen nicht detailliert angesprochen sind. Nach der Entdeckung des Seewegs nach Ostasien bildeten sich im 17. und 18. Jahrhundert die Anfänge einer Chinawissenschaft heraus, die heute vielfach Protosinologie genannt wird. Obwohl Deutschland wenig direkten Kontakt zu China hatte, gab es doch eine intensive Beschäftigung insbesondere mit der chinesischen Sprache und Schrift sowie der chinesischen Geschichte. Ein Beitrag des Tiroler Jesuitenmissionars MARTIN MARTINI S.J. (1614–1661, aus Trient) ist hier von großer Bedeutung – er übersetzte nämlich eine chinesische Darstellung zur chinesischen Frühgeschichte, Sinicae historiae decas prima (Monachii 1658), eigentlich gedacht als Hintergrundmaterial zu seinem hervorragenden Novus Atlas sinensis (Amsterdam 1655). Diese den Originaltexten entsprechende recht trockene Präsentation erregte in Europa Aufsehen, denn ein Teil der beschriebenen Ereignisse schien sich vor dem nach der Bibel berechneten Datum der Sintflut abgespielt zu haben. -
