Abstract
This study aims to explore the translation and reception of modern Chinese literature in France. By placing the act of translation in the field of literary and cultural exchanges between France and China, this study tries to reflect on the role of the translation, and the way it works in the international exchanges between different nation’s literature, specifically in the Franco-Chinese literary exchanges. By means of focusing of translated modern Chinese literary works in France and conducting a phase-to-phase study on them, this thesis attempts to establish an overview of the translation and reception of modern Chinese literature in France within the theoretical framework of socio-criticism by Annie Brisset and the sociology by Pierre Bourdieu. The thoughts on three representative Chinese writers ― Lu Xun, Ba Jin and Lao She ― help to better understand the mechanism that operates in the translation and reception of modern Chinese literature in France unveil the influencing factors, and reveal the role of the translator, the editor and other mediators in the translation and reception of the literature in question in her host country.
