About this book
Reviews
“This volume is worth recommending to scholars in translation and practitioners in journalism, for it markedly devotes itself to the application of the foreignized approach in news translation practices. … The interdisciplinary nature of this volume will be of much interest to a wide range of readers, in particular researchers in the fields of translation, media, and journalism studies.” (Renzhong Peng, International Journal of Communication, Vol. 14, 2020)
