This course connects to the subfields of ecocriticism and eco translatology to explore transcultural translations of the ‘wild’. Focusing especially on modern/contemporary fiction from the Sinosphere and linking such texts to other World Literatures, the aim is to analyze how the ‘wild’ is represented and translated interlingually and intersemiotically. The analysis of these literary translations of the ‘wild’ is important to understanding the impact and influence literature has on human appreciation and respect for the natural world.
