Zhang, Xu (张旭). 2003. 胡適與英詩翻譯 [Hu Shih and the translation of English poetry]. Journal of Translation Studies 8 : 1–19.

Abstract

This paper is an exploration of Hu Shih, a poet-translator with cultural authority, and his theory and practice of English poetry translation in the early twentieth century. The discussion will focus, in the light of Western translation theory, on the literary norms, poetics, and ideology of the poet-translator’s rewriting of the source text. This approach will led on to new insights on translation strategies, the transfer of language from 'wenyan' to 'baihua' in poetic translation, and the influence of the translated texts on poetic writing in the target culture.
