Abstract
This book aims to analyse translation from a cultural perspective, and investigates the theory and method of cultural translation. It looks into language and translation, regional culture and translation, customs and translation, personal names, religion and translation and other issues. It sets out to explore the relations between language, culture and translation. It sets forth a translational principle called ‘cultural reappearance’. Most examples from the book used to investigate the principle and methods of cultural translation make use of the novel A Dream of Red Mansions.
