Blurb:

In Chapter 1, we analyze Ti Xi Lin Bi (题西林壁) by SU Shi (苏轼) and its four English translations. Based on the analysis of the poem and its translations, we provide a brief introduction to the other chapters in this book. The analysis in this chapter is also expected to offer a general account of the research methods and framework used in this book.
