This study draws on Bourdieu’s conceptualization of the international circulation of ideas to examine the sociological formation process of a translation. Taking the translated Chinese novel Border Town as an example, this study investigates the three phases of that process: selection; labeling and classification; and reading and reception. It discovers that the first two phases have created favorable conditions for the reception of the translated novel, but the translation was not well received. This article argues that the reception of a translation depends on the success of every phase of the sociological formation process. The reception of a translation is constructed and consecrated through the joint efforts of different agents in each phase. Only through a holistic sociological consideration of the dynamics of the formation process can we reach a real understanding of the reception of a translated work.

Abstract:Modern Chinese literature in translation deserves more attention than it currently commands in America. In this interview, Jeffrey C. Kinkley, an American historian, sinologist, and translator of the work of Shen Congwen and other Chinese writers, shares his interpretation of the different cultural and aesthetic norms of literature that are frequently encountered in the process of literary translation. Issues covered include the dynamic relationship between the translator and publishers, editors, and book reviewers; the reception of Chinese literature as compared with other “foreign” literatures in America; the English-speaking world’s reception of translated modern Chinese literature as compared with that of contemporary Chinese literature; and approaches to promoting one’s own culture.

David Damrosch affirme que la littérature mondiale se construit à travers la circulation, la traduction et la lecture de diverses littératures nationales. En fait, le concept de littérature mondiale met aujourd’hui essentiellement l’accent sur l’échange, le dialogue et l’inspiration mutuelle entre les littératures nationales. Dans le processus d’échanges littéraires, le canon littéraire mondial prospectif n’est pas seulement déterminé par l’autre, il a également un impact important sur l’autre. Fondée sur la communication et l’interaction entre les différentes littératures nationales, et tenant compte de l’hétérogénéité culturelle généralement ignorée par les études de littérature comparée, la théorie de la variation insiste sur l’étude des variations apparaissant dans les échanges littéraires internationaux, interlinguistiques et interculturels en général. Observant le phénomène de variation dans les échanges littéraires internationaux, interculturels et interlinguistiques, cet article pose que la variation dans les échanges littéraires est indispensable à la formation des canons littéraires mondiaux.
