System Modeling and Graphical Presentation in Theoretical Construction of Eco-Translatology
As a visually descriptive representation of the basic conceptual elements of an intricate knowledge system,a system model takes the form of a combination of words,symbols,charts,etc.The more complex a system,the greater the need for its modeling,and the more complicated the form of its system model tends to be.With its exceptionally complex theoretical structure,Eco-Translatology is particularly in need of the modeling in question.A graphical representation of its core concepts,basic ideas and various viewpoints would not only make it easier to grasp its essential characteristics,but also help to clear up some misconceptions of or misunderstandings about Eco-Translatology.An adequate system model also amounts to a fresh attempt to"tell a good story"about Eco-Translatology to non-Chinese translation scholars and thus to facilitate its interaction with other theoretical models in the field of translation studies.
