Keywords:

翻译;社交媒体时代;疫情
Abstract:
The six papers in the Translation and Social Media Communication in the Age of the Pandemic discuss the connections among translation, social media communication, and the COVID-19 crisis for the first time. In the social media era, especially in tackling global crises, translation is indispensable and demands greater consideration. The collection holds that in the post-pandemic period, the conception and critique of translation should be reshaped in response to various cultural, political, and ecological challenges. Hopefully, this review will help improve the content of this collection and attract more scholarly attention to related studies.
《疫情时代的翻译和社交媒体交流》收录了六篇论文,首次将翻译、社交媒体交流和新冠疫情危机结合起来进行讨论。在社交媒体时代,尤其是在应对全球性危机过程中,翻译所发挥的作用不容忽视,也值得更深层次的思考。本论文集讨论了在后疫情世界,为应对文化、政治、生态等各类挑战,翻译的定义、评判标准应当有所变化。本文就该论文集内容进行总结概括,并对其做出简要述评,以期对该书内容的完善有所帮助,并引发对相关研究更多的思考。
