Features: It is worth noting that translation studies, while introducing various theories, tend to be swallowed up and assimilated by them. Although the field of translation studies appears to be expanding, there is a hidden risk of losing its own position as translation moves from the periphery to the center. In the face of this danger, we must remain clear-headed and maintain an independent awareness of the discipline of translation. We should systematically explore issues in translation theory from the perspective of building translation studies. The "New Perspectives in Translation Studies" series, edited under the support of Shanghai Translation Publishing House, is a concrete embodiment of this effort. The series has clear objectives: First, the selected topics should strive to possess considerable theoretical depth and originality, contributing to the theoretical construction and development of the discipline of translation. Second, the research should be systematic, ensuring quality through a strong sense of inquiry, scientific research methods, solid arguments, and comprehensive data. Third, the research should be open-ended, requiring scholars to have a broad theoretical perspective while keeping abreast of the latest developments in international translation theory. They must also demonstrate a spirit of exploration and strive for innovation in their research. With the support of colleagues in the translation field and the efforts of the authors, we hope our objectives can be further realized. This series systematically explores translation theory from the perspective of building translation studies. The selected topics possess considerable theoretical depth and originality, and the research is systematic, open-ended, and innovative.
