It is a comprehensive course subject consisting of general translatology, theoretical translatology and applied translatology. It is about general laws of translation, studies of translation with special reference to Chinese and English, and methods to apply theories to practice. The course of Translatology aims at providing students with traditional perspective as well as latest developments in translation studies so as to raise their ability to pursue theoretical researches; it also aims at analyzing and solving problems which constantly occur in the process of translation by focusing on contrastive studies between Chinese and English and, between the Chinese culture and the English culture.
