Abstract

ABSTRACT This introductory article aims to present an overview of the contribution that East Asian scholars have made to Translation Studies as a field of enquiry.

The article considers the publications on audiovisual as well as literary and news translation, highlighting articles, book chapters and monographs that have delved into translations involving East Asian languages, notably Chinese, Korean and Japanese. The final section introduces the selection of papers that conform this thematic issue.
