ref. A9780197809884Hardback. New. Salvation and Revolution traces the intricate paths of Chinese Protestant intellectuals as they grappled with their Christian faith amidst the upheavals of modern China. Beginning with the fall of the Qing Dynasty and journeying through the tumultuous Cultural Revolution this book considers the lives of figures like Zhao Zichen Wu Yaozong and Cai Yongchun who strove to align Christianity with the nation's quest for renewal. Initially championing a "Liberal Synthesis" these intellectuals sought to fuse liberal Christian ideals with patriotic fervor viewing Christianity as a catalyst for moral progress social reform and global solidarity. But as China wrestled with internal strife the Japanese invasion and the ascent of the Chinese Communist Party their theological paths diverged. Wu Yaozong veered toward socialism and embraced the CCP as a vehicle for national salvation and purified Christianity. In contrast Zhao Zichen and Cai Yongchun adopted more conservative theological positions emphasizing God's transcendence and pursuing spiritual transformation amid these crises. In this deeply researched book Jesse Zexi Sun follows these thinkers' struggles to adapt to the demands of the early People's Republic of China their efforts to sustain religious expression under intensifying state control and the profound challenges they confronted during the Cultural Revolution. Despite theological rifts public denunciations and personal suffering these intellectuals remained unwavering in their conviction that Christianity deserved a vital place in China's future. Salvation and Revolution illuminates the complex interplay between faith and nationalism revealing tensions between universal religious claims and China's unique context and how these thinkers sought to navigate them. hardcover

ref. A9780367410773Paperback / softback. New. This book explores the deep-rooted anxiety about foreign otherness manifest through translation in modern China in its endeavours to engage in cross-cultural exchanges. It offers to theorize and contextualize a related range of issues concerning translation practice in response to foreign otherness. The book also introduces new vistas to some of the under-explored aspects of translation practice concerning ideology and cultural politics from the late Qing dynasty to the present day. Largely as a result of translation ethnocentric beliefs and feelings have given way to a more open and liberal way to approach and appropriate foreign otherness. However the fear of Westernization seen as a threat to Chinese cultural integrity and social stability is still shown sporadically through the state's ideological control over translation. The book interprets questions and reformulates a number of the key theoretical issues in Translation Studies and also demonstrates their ramifications in a bid to shed light on Chinese translation practice. paperback
