Sad to hear of the passing of Merle Goldman, who started me down the path to #ChineseStudies when I was an undergraduate at #BostonUniversity https://www.nytimes.com/2023/12/15/world/asia/merle-goldman-dead.html

My new book is out! Conceptualising China through Translation, from Manchester University Press. #translation #translationstudies #china #chinesestudies #FilialPiety #face #guanxi #connections #fengshui #intellectualhistory

de Harlez, former professor at KU Leuven, should perhaps be better known among Chinese (esp Qing) historians. He translated various works; wrote voluminously about all sorts of topics inc histories of the Jurchen Jin Empire, of Neo-Confucianism, of color perception, and an introduction to Manchu.

For an extensive bibliography (also covering his earlier work on Zoroastrianism) read the French (not the English) wikipedia entry:

Today I'm working on a short bio of #JamesLegge, missionary, nineteenth-century #translator of the Chinese Classics, and first Professor of Chinese at Oxford. Part of my ongoing project 19th Century Chinese-English Translator Networks. #TranslationStudies #Translatology #ChineseStudies #China
Fun fact: he got the job at Oxford by donating his Chinese collection to the Bodleian library.
