Features: Our foreign language skills are getting stronger and stronger, but why is the quality of translation constantly declining? Under the impact of translation, where is the future of Chinese? How can we ensure the individuality of Chinese as a language and culture? By analyzing some textbooks of translation studies, tracing the concept and history of translation, and deeply exploring whether the logocentrism of Western culture can coexist peacefully with the long-standing Chinese culture. Taking the theories and practices of scholars such as Wen Yiduo, Chen Yinque, Qian Zhongshu, and Liang Zongdai as examples, the author uses deconstructionist methods to strive to explore the fate of Chinese and Chinese culture.
