A Study on the English Translation of Museum Ceramic Exhibition Titles from the Perspective of Cultural Translation Theory: A Case Study of Jiangxi Provincial Museum and Jingdezhen Chinese Ceramic Museum

Translation is not merely the conversion of linguistic symbols; it is also an act of cultural exchange. The concept of cultural translation requires that the target language accurately reflects the meaning, manner, and style intended by the source language from a cultural perspective. This study conducts a comparative analysis of the translations of ceramic exhibition titles in two museums, exploring the selection of cultural translation strategies to effectively preserve and convey the essence of the source culture.

Abstract

Translation is not merely the conversion of linguistic symbols; it is also an act of cultural exchange. The concept of cultural translation requires that the target language accurately reflects the meaning, manner, and style intended by the source language from a cultural perspective. This study conducts a comparative analysis of the translations of ceramic exhibition titles in two museums, exploring the selection of cultural translation strategies to effectively preserve and convey the essence of the source culture.
