Key Topics
About the Book Series
Originally published in Chinese by Foreign Language and Teach Press, the Key Topics series selects core topics in five major directions: linguistics, applied linguistics, translation studies, foreign literature studies, and intercultural studies. Each book discusses research context, methods and achievements, selecting classic and original research cases and future trends. It is known as the "scientific research map" of foreign language disciplines in China.
The book series provides readers in all directions of foreign language disciplines with a must-read list of research on core topics, helping to build a Chinese academic discourse system and showcasing Chinese perspectives and views.
