The Impact of Eastern and Western Cognitive Differences on International Publicity Translation and Corresponding Strategies
International publicity translation constitutes a specialized form of translation where communicative effectiveness serves as the primary evaluation criterion, adhering to the principle of reader-oriented adaptation.Consequently, understanding of East-West cognitive differences is essential in this field.This paper examines three core distinctions in Eastern-Western cognition-collectivistic vs. individualistic thinking, correlative vs. logical reasoning, and spiral vs. linear thought patterns-through analysis of publicity texts.It further proposes targeted translation strategies and orientation adjustments.
