doi:10.12339/j.issn.1673-8578.2023.02.003

Abstract

Abstract:

As one of the representative works of traditional Chinese culture, I Ching contains rich and profound philosophical ideas of ancient China, so the study on the translation of I Ching accords with the general trend of the Chinese culture “Going Out” Strategy. In this paper, from the perspective of cognitive terminology and combining multiple English translation versions, we make a bilingual glossary of the terms in I Ching, identify the problems in the term translation of I Ching, analyze the reasons for them, and finally propose corresponding English translation strategies.

Key words: cognitive terminology, I Ching, term translation
