ABSTRACT
Against the backdrop of economic globalization, international tourism across different cultures has been the subject of social life in a new period when the tourism publicity translation plays an increasingly important role in furthering the internationalization of China’s tourism. With the diversified development of science and technology and ideology, traditional translation strategies cannot meet the requirement of tourism in the new period. Qualified strategies, therefore, are demanded for the tourism publicity translation.
The Functionalist theory has opened up a new perspective on tourism publicity translation, and promoted the conception of the integration of different cultures based on loyalty to the original text. In light of the Functionalist theory, the core strategy for tourism publicity translation falls on the pursuit of cultural adequacy. In this paper, an investigation is made into such functional approaches as restricting, supplementing, condensing and free translation as employed for the tourism publicity translation with particular reference to the translation for Nanjing’s Zhongshan Mountain National Park, with the purpose of making the tourism publicity translation more readable.
Key words: Tourism Publicity Translation; Functionalist Theory; Translation Strategy
