An Overview of Engineering Translation Bulletin: A Key Carrier of “Saving the Nation through Technology” in the Republican Era
Abstract
Taking Engineering Translation Bulletin in the Republican period as the core research object, this paper systematically examines the historical role of this journal in the translation and introduction of Western traffic engineering technologies, localized transformation, and social impact, centering on the historical theme of “saving the nation through technology” and adopting the methods of literature collation and historical analysis. The research focuses on the journal’s publication information, content introduction, knowledge dissemination, and domestic acceptance, revealing how it constructed a technology dissemination mechanism of “introducing Western knowledge to aid China” under the concept of “saving the nation through engineering”. This journal fills the research gap in the history of engineering translation in the Republican era and provides a new perspective for the interdisciplinary integration of technology dissemination history and translation history studies.
